Chapter 226: Chase and Escape
"Report Commander, just now a hunter reported to us that a group of people wanted to cross the mountain path and leave the fiefdom from the border of Wu County. Listening to Orion's description, the two leading people should be Yang Hong and Zhong Wentao, whom His Highness wants to capture. At this time, a female soldier hurriedly came to Duanmu Jiyue and reported to her.
"In which direction? Take me there, you're going to have to catch these two guys this time. Listening to the report of the female soldiers under him, Duanmu Jiyue said anxiously.
"But the commander, according to this Orion's confession, there are more than a dozen people in their group, and we have seven or eight people here now, and it is not their opponent to catch up! Let's wait a little while I'm going to get some men. A female soldier suggested to Duanmu Jiyue.
"When we call all the people, they don't know where to go, if they let them escape from the fiefdom, Yang Yun that guy will have to be angry? Don't worry about it, let's catch up with me first, leave one person to call someone, we will leave a mark while chasing, and the people behind will follow the mark to catch up. Duanmu Jiyue couldn't help but make arrangements.
In order to catch these, the guys who sabotage in the fiefdom, the fiefdom counties have set up checkpoints on all the main roads out of the fiefdom. However, there are many trails in the mountains, and they are not all closed, but many trails can only be found by hunters and woodcutters who grow in the mountains, and it seems that Yang Hong and Zhong Wentao must have found a local guide and found a path that can sneak out of the fiefdom.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Jiyue was so anxious that she took a few female soldiers under her command and hurriedly chased after them under the leadership of Orion who was found by the female soldier who reported the news.
The road in the mountain is steep and narrow, and there are branches and thorns blocking the way, the horses can not go any further, Duanmu Jiyue and several people had to give up the horses under their seats, constantly shuttling in the jungle, and hurriedly chased forward.
Duanmu Jiyue and the others were desperately rushing in the mountains, and the female soldier who stayed behind spent a long time not finding anyone else, and in desperation, she had to rush to Wu Wangfu.
"Stop! What do you do? Wu Wangfu said that he would break through. At the gate of Wu Wang's Mansion in Wu County, the soldier stopped the female soldier who was rushing to the mansion.
"I have an urgent matter to see His Royal Highness King Wu, you let me in quickly!" The female soldier shouted vigorously, trying to break into the house as she shouted.
"His Royal Highness King Wu is not in the mansion now, and even if His Royal Highness is in the mansion now, you have to explain what is going on, and you can't break into the house." The guard guarding the door said to the female soldier, fortunately it was a woman who wanted to break in, if it was a man who broke in, he might have been beaten out by these guards.
"I am a subordinate of Duanmu Commander, and I have something urgent to report to His Royal Highness King Wu!" The female soldier shouted to the guard, so anxious that she was about to cry.
"What's wrong?" At this time, a beautiful female voice suddenly came.
"Meet the Princess!" When the guard guarding the door and the female soldier who came heard the voice, and saw the owner of the voice, they hurriedly bowed and saluted.
The owner of this voice was none other than Yang Yun's wife, Chi Li, who was taking Yanqin and Liu Yue for a stroll in the mansion. Suddenly, he heard a voice at the door of the house, so he came out curiously to see what was going on.
"Princess Qiyu, here's the thing......" The female soldier heard Chi Li ask, and hurriedly explained the incident.
"Commander Duanmu doesn't have 3,000 female soldiers under his command, why did you come here at the expense of the near and far?" Chi Li asked strangely.
"Commander Qiao and Commander Duanmu asked their sisters to scatter to various places, wanting to find out Yang Hong and Zhong Wentao, who were sabotaging in the fiefdom, but they had no chance to gather them for a while, so they had to come to find His Royal Highness King Wu." The female soldier said anxiously.
"Leader Zhang, you take a hundred guards from the mansion and quickly rush to the direction pursued by Commander Duanmu, you must not let Commander Duanmu have an accident. Li Daling, His Royal Highness is now in the Giant Army Division's Mansion, you take this girl and hurry over, and let His Royal Highness King Wu take people to recover Duanmu Commander as quickly as possible. After understanding the whole thing, Chi Li also supported it very urgently, and hurriedly made a series of arrangements.
Half an hour later, several fast horses galloped on the county streets, and there was a rule in the fiefdom that no one was allowed to gallop in the county on horseback unless there was an emergency.
These people actually dared to run in the county town, and the officers in the county immediately chased after them, trying to catch this daring man. After chasing them for a distance, they felt that the people running in front of them were familiar, and when they looked closely, everyone was startled.
Because it was none other than the one who was leading the run in front, it was the owner of this fief, Wu Wang Yang Yun, and Mr. Ju Yuanguang, the chief military division of the fief.
King Wu was very polite to everyone when he was in the fiefdom, and he never ran fast in the city. Seeing this, all the messengers stopped one after another, and they couldn't cause trouble to His Highness at this time.
Yang Yun didn't know anything about what happened later, he only knew how to hurry forward as best he could.
Originally, Yang Yun was rarely free today, so he was going to come to Ju Yuanguang's house, drink tea with him, play chess, and discuss the development of the fiefdom.
Who knew that not long after sitting down, someone came to the door, and heard that Duanmu Jiyue only brought a few people to chase Yang Hong and Zhong Wentao.
This scared Yang Yun enough, how could Duanmu Jiyue's tendonous personality be the opponent of Yang Hong and Zhong Wentao, the two old foxes.
Yang Yun jumped up all of a sudden, and hurriedly rushed out of the door, and Ju Yuanguang also knew that this matter was very critical. Hurriedly and Chi Mu'er, who was beside him with one hand, hurriedly ordered more than a dozen family members and ran away behind Yang Yun.
Yang Yun and his party arrived in the mountains soon after, and because of the steep mountain road, everyone had to dismount and walk. The female soldier under Duanmu Jiyue led the way in front, and chased forward as fast as possible according to the marks left by Duanmu Jiyue's men.
The road in the mountains is really not easy to walk, but Yang Yun did not hesitate at all, going uphill and downhill, even walking through various thorns in the dense forest, his clothes were torn, and there were some blood marks on his body, but he didn't seem to feel that he was still desperately rushing forward.
Everyone ran along the mountain road for half an hour, but they still didn't catch up with Duanmu Jiyue and the others, but they unexpectedly found a group of figures in front. Yang Yun and the others took a closer look, and the pair of figures were the guards that Chi Li first sent to chase Duanmu Jiyue.
"Why are you still here? Hurry up and keep chasing! Looking at these guards, Yang Yun said a little anxiously.
"Report to Your Highness, we chased here, there were a few forks in the road, the previous mark is gone here, and now we don't know which way to chase." The leading guard said with a depressed face.
"Who knows what's going on in front of you?" Seeing this situation, Yang Yun had no other way, and at this time, Ju Yuanguang was behind him and suddenly asked everyone.
"Report to the Chief Military Division, my family is in this area, and I know the situation on this road." At this time, a guard walked out and said to Ju Yuanguang.
"Okay, tell me how many roads there are?" After Ju Yuanguang heard about it, he hurriedly asked happily.
"There are several forks in the road, but several of them lead to the mountain, and if you want to pass the path and escape from Wu County and escape from the fiefdom, there are only three roads at present." The guard saluted Yang Yun and Ju Yuanguang and said respectfully.
"Which way do you think they'll go?" Yang Yun suddenly said to the guard.
"Of the three roads ahead, the one on the left is the most hidden, but the terrain is very complicated, and people who are not familiar with the road conditions may fall off the cliff. The middle road is relatively long, but much easier to walk. The one on the right is the most difficult to walk, there is a long way to go, and you have to reach out and climb to move forward, but the time to escape from the fiefdom should be the shortest. The guard replied respectfully.
"Brother Ju, which way do you think is appropriate? I reckon they might have to take the right lane, because they want to get out of the fiefdom as quickly as possible. Yang Yun said as he looked at Ju Yuanguang with an inquiring gaze.
"Your Highness! Zhong Wentao is very cunning, if everyone can think of the road, he may not take it. Also, Duanmu led them all the way without making a mark, it seems that most of them were caught by these two guys, and if there are girls, they can't go too fast on the most difficult road, so I think they take the middle road. ”
Ju Yuanguang squatted on the ground, muttered for a while, and said to Yang Yun.
"In that case, we don't put our hopes on speculation, we divide the people into three parts and chase them down three paths, so as to make sure that these two guys can be caught." Yang Yun suddenly said loudly.
"Your Highness's idea is good, the mountain road on the right is the most difficult, let General Chen Shan, with the guards who are the best at climbing the mountain, take the road on the right. I brought some guards with good physical strength and quick action to chase after me from the left, and the middle road was relatively easy to walk, so His Highness took General Akagi and a few guards with strong kung fu to chase through this road. Ju Yuanguang walked in front of Yang Yun and told him what he thought.
"Brother Ju, your body is weaker, so you can take the middle road. It's important to catch these saboteurs, but you're the best at making plans in our fiefdom, and you're very important to our fiefdom, so take the middle and I'll take the left path! ”
"Your Royal Highness, don't say that, you are His Royal Highness King Wu, the noble prince of the thirteen princes, you are the master of the fiefdom, the backbone of the people of the fiefdom, if something happens to you? Then our fiefdom will have to collapse. Ju Yuanguang looked at Yang Yun and said sincerely.
"This matter is urgent, and the sooner the better, then I won't fight here, just do what Brother Ju said! Everyone must do their best to rescue Duanmu Commander, Yang Yun is here to ask everyone. Yang Yun said to everyone.
"Okay, let's do it, we will definitely do our best to rescue Commander Duanmu." After everyone expressed this meaning in unison, they all hurried forward, and after a while, they disappeared into the mountain road.
