Chapter 604: Don't Fear Death, Spare Your Life
Gu Yunqian's torn voice was covered by the sound of a fight after all.
He didn't stop for a moment, brandishing his spear to sweep away the Di people who pounced on him, and approached Jiang Muyuan's side on the other.
He kept shouting "can't go into the city".
In order to walk faster, he pestled the ground with a spear, ignoring the old wounds on his chest and abdomen, bounced up stiffly, crossed several people, and stepped on Di Ren's shoulders to borrow strength, and crossed forward again.
Such an abnormal movement was finally captured by Jiang Muyuan, and he recognized that it was Gu Yunqian, so he turned his horse's head and leaned over.
The distance was shortened, and Jiang Muyuan heard what Gu Yunqian had been shouting.
Gu Yunqian rushed to Jiang Muyuan's horse, dealt with Di Ren's blow in his hand, and said quickly: "I met Brother Yunkang, and he said not to enter the city. ”
Jiang Muyuan's heart was shocked.
He looked in the direction where Gu Yunqian came from, and finally found Gu Yunkang's figure in the crowd.
Actually, it's not hard to recognize.
The rest of the soldiers in Di costumes were fighting bravely to kill the enemy, and only one figure was mainly defensive, and even quietly stumbled the Di people.
Jiang Muyuan asked, "What did he say?" ”
Gu Yunqian said eagerly: "Say that there is nothing in the city, let's not enter the city, let me capture him." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Muyuan couldn't help but turn his head to look at the city wall, the city gate had been opened, but in his eyes, it turned into a black abyss.
He had doubted just now that this would be a strategy to catch turtles in Di Ren's urn, but now that he found Gu Yunkang's whereabouts, Jiang Muyuan became more cautious.
"You take him away first, we won't enter the city, hold on for a moment, and hold on for a moment to hold back the footsteps of the Di people on Lord Xiang's side!" Jiang Muyuan ordered.
The sound of drums is not a command to attack, but a defense.
The heralds rode through the flames of war quickly, going back and forth between the two places, but the message they brought back was that they were afraid that they would not be able to break through the mountain pass.
Jiang Muyuan's heart was crossed, and Mingjin withdrew his troops.
The soldiers retreated outside the Crane City, and the Di people did not chase them out, only opened the city gate, as if mocking their timidity.
Jiang Muyuan ignored it, only ordered the soldiers to take the prisoners and help the wounded, and then returned to the camp first.
Han Lei stepped forward and wanted to treat the wound on Jiang Muyuan's arm.
Jiang Muyuan didn't mind, and looked for Gu Yunqian and Gu Yunkang first.
Gu Yunkang had already changed into Di Ren's outfit, and in the cold weather, he asked the military doctor to treat his injuries shirtless.
There were countless scars on his body, large and small, some of them were old wounds, some of them were today's wounds, but the most terrible ones were half-new and not old.
On his back, chest, and abdomen, he didn't seem to have taken good care of it, and in today's battle, many of these old wounds were cracked, blood beads seeped out, and the red bandages were thrown aside.
These wounds looked no lighter than when Gu Yunqian was rescued.
The military doctor took a knife, dissolved Gu Yunkang's back, and cut off the carrion.
Gu Yunkang's forehead was sweating, and the pain was visible.
Gu Yunqian frowned and asked in a low voice, "Brother, haven't you treated your injuries well?" ”
Gu Yunkang grinned, squeezed out a smile, raised his unbandaged arm, and pressed his palm on Gu Yunqian's head: "I don't dare to treat it." ”
The tone of these words was brisk, but the meaning of it, Gu Yunqian understood it after pondering it.
Gu Yunkang can pretend to be Di Ren and mix in Crane City, but he will not hand over his back to Di Ren.
He treated the rest of the wounds himself, but he couldn't reach the rest of the wounds on his back, so he could only fester.
He is not afraid of death, but he also spares his life, and he never wants to die in the hands of Di Ren.
But Gu Yunkang's face was completely ruined, that is, this appearance that his relatives couldn't recognize at a glance when they saw him, allowing him to blend in with the enemy army, without letting people recognize his true identity.
Because Gu Yunkang didn't want to hurt his own people, he used to focus on defense, but in the melee, the sword had no eyes, and he was seriously injured and not fully healed, and he added countless new injuries for a while.
The military doctor handled it very carefully, but after all, it was a cut of flesh to heal the wound, how could it not hurt.
Jiang Muyuan squatted down and said, "Why don't you let us go into the city?" ”
This was both an inquiry and a distraction for Gu Yunkang.
Gu Yunqian added: "This is Grandpa Ning." ”
"Yunjin's husband?" Gu Yunkang looked at Jiang Muyuan and smiled, "Yun Miao didn't see the people, I saw ......"
Jiang Muyuan raised his eyebrows: "Yun Jin found Yun Miao, you said goodbye to Yun Miao that night, Yun Ying heard it inside, and said it." ”
Gu Yunkang's eyes tightened suddenly, and the other hand hanging by his side clenched tightly, and slowly released.
He understood what Jiang Muyuan meant, telling him that they were clear about all the circumstances that day, including Gu Zhize's unforgivable choice.
Gu Yunkang gasped, he didn't know if it was the wound pain or the pain in his heart, he settled down and said: "The remaining military supplies in Hecheng have been transported to Shankou Pass, and the Di people's strategy is to deliberately expose the flaws, so that you can attack the city successfully, and after rushing into the city, set fire to the city." ”
Jiang Muyuan's expression froze.
Hecheng is one of the three big cities in the north, the city is large, and there are many buildings, once they enter the city, they will inevitably disperse to find a place for the Di people to store military rations.
Once the fire starts, even if it is just thick smoke, it will make the soldiers confused.
Even if they find a way to exit, the Di people will deal the biggest blow to them above the city walls and outside the city gates.
Gu Yunqian was also afraid, and hurriedly said, "Then Brother Yunkang, how did you sneak into Crane City?" Have you found your uncle? ”
"This one is also important!" Gu Yunkang and Jiang Muyuan said, "The body of the eldest uncle is not in the hands of the Di people, they are talking about it, and they want to deceive it with a fake one." ”
Jiang Muyuan and Gu Yunqian exchanged a look.
Rao was that they guessed Di Ren's actions, but Gu Yunkang's words gave them more confidence.
"Where is General Gu's body?" Jiang Muyuan asked.
"A small village called Xingli in the southeast of Hecheng, I buried it with my own hands," Gu Yunkang finished speaking, said hello to the military doctor, leaned over and handed the two of them a piece of broken jade that had been untied from his neck to heal his injuries, "You two may not recognize it, but the eldest brother recognizes it." ”
Gu Zhiyuan wears a jade tiger all the year round, the tiger body has been broken, and Gu Yunkang only has the tiger's head left.
Whether it is Gu Zhiyuan's relic or not, it can only be identified when Gu Yunyan and Gu Yunxi arrive.
Gu Yunkang took a deep breath and said, "In Beidi City that day, I didn't catch up with the Di Ren who took away the eldest uncle......
In the smoke of war, when the defenders of the northern land were losing and retreating, it was too difficult for Gu Yunkang to go against the grain.
Seeing that the Di army was about to withdraw from the Northland, Gu Yunkang left Gu Yunqian with wound medicine, then stripped the outfit of a dead Di soldier on the side, quickly dressed up, and followed the army all the way.
This army attacked Shankou Pass by surprise, and then attacked Hecheng, and when it was engaged with the defenders, Gu Yunkang saw the opportunity and sneaked to the rear to steal Gu Zhiyuan's body.
