Chapter Seventy-Four: A False Alarm (Part II)

As soon as He Ran rode out of the city gate, he saw a group of people about to enter the city, and it turned out to be a red man walking in front! Looking further back, I saw that Mrs. Nuan Yu, who was wearing a heavy veil, was immediately bending down to hide, obviously seeing him.

He Ran was in a hurry, whipped at the red man, and scolded: "Are you looking for death!" You can't do anything to escort your lady back to the valley! ”

Hong Yan didn't dare to avoid it, and after being whipped, he turned over and dismounted, bowed down and said: "Madame is forced to die, and the villain really has no choice." ”

He Ran sighed heavily, and drove the horse to Mrs. Nuanyu's horse, Mrs. Nuanyu saw that she couldn't hide, lifted her veil and smiled: "Don't blame Hongyu, I forced him to bring me here, what are you going to do?" ”

He Ran looked deeply at her bright eyes and said: "I'm going to deal with some urgent military affairs, my sister will turn back immediately, I can't delay for a moment Now it's really dangerous here, I don't have time to say more to my sister, my sister must listen to me this time." ”

Seeing that his expression was so serious, Mrs. Nuan Yu panicked in her heart, and said: "You must be careful yourself if it is so dangerous, I wanted to secretly stay here and wait for you to defeat the Shun army before I go to see you, okay, I know, let's go back, don't worry about me." ”

Si Jing on the side pouted and said, "Madam, we have only come from far away, and we haven't even entered the city gate, He Ran, you ......."

Mrs. Nuan Yu didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and then reprimanded: "Shut up, I don't know the severity, go back immediately with me!" ”

Mrs. Nuanyu's reasonableness made He Ran save a lot of words, and he nodded and called Hong Yan and said, "Escort Mrs. back, don't take the road close to the border pass, hurry up, and pass Pingcheng a little slowly." Then he turned to Mrs. Nuanyu and said, "Sister...... Go for it. ”

Seeing that his eyes seemed to contain a thousand words, and it was by no means the eyes of ordinary send-offs, Mrs. Nuanyu's heart sank, and she asked nervously: "You tell me what kind of danger will be here?" ”

He Ran smiled and said: "It's okay to survive these two days, the reinforcements will arrive immediately, let's go, I really can't delay." ”

Mrs. Nuan Yu knew that she couldn't ask anything, so she bit her lips and turned the horse's head, but her body twisted back and looked at him deeply, He Ran whipped her crotch lightly and gently whipped the white horse under her crotch, and whispered to the red man who came to her side: "Go slower first, I'll transfer two hundred people for you, and immediately hurry up after the convergence." ”

Rushing to the garrison of five hundred soldiers, He Ran sent two hundred people to chase after Mrs. Nuan Yu and her party, and then galloped away with the remaining three hundred people in the direction where the Dongfang Ao army came from.

The autumn night was cold, He Ran was still hurrying against the rising autumn wind, the moonlight was like water, but his heart was as hot as fire. Although he could talk eloquently in front of Su Ming and others, he had been in charge of the army for many years, and he knew how dangerous it was to face a mutinous army, and it seemed that Dongfang Ao was forced to be in a hurry.

When he first learned that he did not obey the order to attack Juxian Mountain, He Ran's anger was indescribable, he trusted Dongfang Ao too much, and regarded him as his right-hand man, in terms of talent, he was still above Su Ming, and no one could match him among the generals. After calming down a little, he also felt like Su Ming that Dongfang Ao could not do such a thing, and really hoped that it was the Shun army that cut off his retreat and had to attack Juxian Mountain, and he even regretted that he passed the letter to relieve him of his duties under impulse, but the news that came over again and again proved that the Shun army in that direction did not move at all, and his retreat was not threatened in any way, which did not help him not believe that Dongfang Ao went to attack Juxian Mountain because of greed.

In the past few days, He Ran has always recalled the scene when he was covered in blood to rescue Mrs. Nuanyu, and his heart was very uncomfortable, according to Dongfang Ao's guilt this time, it is not too much to kill a hundred times, but after all, he is kind to himself, he is a man with affection, righteousness and blood, how can he kill such a brother.

Yesterday, He Ran was still secretly trying to figure out a way for him, if the danger of Baihe Bay could not be saved as he expected, the loss caused by Dongfang Ao's violation of the order this time was not too great, maybe he could find an excuse to spare his life, at most, he would not be reused in the future, it should all be in return for his kindness in saving Mrs. Nuanyu.

If you don't want him to dare to confuse the army to mutiny, then there is absolutely nothing to say. At this time, He Ran can only hope that his arrival can deter those generals who follow Dongfang Ao, this risk must be taken, otherwise Yi Guo will be beaten back to his original form if he doesn't say that it will be over, it is absolutely impossible to make a comeback, the situation in the world is not like before, Zhao Guo will not let go of this opportunity to suppress Yi Guo, Shun Guo will retaliate wildly, Yi Guo can at most become a watchdog of Zhao State, temporarily contend with Shun Guo for Zhao Guo, once Zhao Guo does not need this dog, then it can be killed at any time.

He Ran didn't know what remarks Dongfang Ao used to bewitch the soldiers below, this is by no means easy, because most of these generals walked out from under their own accounts, all he could think of was that Dongfang Ao might have faked his military orders after going back, and quickly replaced those generals with cronies after regaining control of the army, but this is not easy to do. Could it be that he has already co-opted some generals in the past year or so? The recruits for this army were all trained by him, and it was not impossible for him to completely control this army if he wanted to do so. Thinking of this, He Ran realized that this trip was even more risky than he had previously expected, but he had no choice.

"Strategist, there is Yacheng in front, are you staying there?" The military guide asked, pointing to the left front.

"No, drive a few dozen miles to Goya City, and stay in the wilderness without a town to rest." He Ran didn't even look in the direction he was pointing.

Xi Qun looked at each other and smiled bitterly, this day the road drove down and they all felt that they were about to be torn apart, but they could imagine what state the military advisor was in now. Everyone knew that the matter was urgent, and they didn't dare to persuade the military division to stop and rest, so they had to grit their teeth and gallop with the military division.

Before noon the next day, He Ran rushed to Goya City, which was only a small city with only a few hundred residents and not many soldiers to guard it, but it was the only way for Dongfang Ao to go to Wanglong City.

When the city guard heard that the military division had arrived, he was so shocked that he hurried to meet him with a dozen or so officials.

He Ran asked these officials to be on duty not to make a noise about his arrival here, ordered the city guard to close the north gate, and then freshened up in the palace, and ordered the two relatives to climb the city tower to lookout, and report back immediately if they found that a large army was coming. After a little food, he found a couch and closed his eyes to recuperate.
