Chapter 388: Falling into the Hands of the Enemy

"Sister Xiaoqian is very good! My grandfather valued her very much, and although she was Han, no one dared to be rude to her. It's just that our Jurchen boys are too enthusiastic, which makes Sister Xiaoqian very annoyed. If you want to solve Sister Xiaoqian's troubles, come with me to Liaoyang! ”

Yu Ren shook his head weakly. "Forget it! Since she is doing well, I don't need to disturb her life. ”

Yu Qi'er smiled lightly, as if she understood the meaning of Yu Ren's words. She gently pinched the horse's belly, speeding up the horse, and said, "This is not up to you." Now you're my captive. It's up to me where I want to go. Besides, Sister Xiaoqian suffers from love, and in order not to make it difficult for you, she would rather stay away from Liaodong alone. Don't you even have the courage to go see her once? Are you really that afraid of your three ladies? ”

Yu Ren stopped talking. As soon as Yuqi'er mentioned Yu Yuqian, he felt that he was at a loss. He couldn't argue with Yuqi'er, but reason and clearly told him that he couldn't leave Zhenjiang at the moment. Otherwise, the little achievements that were so easy to make are afraid that they will be buried again soon.

However, as Yuqi'er said, now that he is a prisoner, it is no longer up to him to decide where to go. Even if he didn't want to go to Liaoyang, if Yuqi'er had to take him, then he couldn't do anything. Therefore, thinking that he couldn't make his own decisions about this matter anyway, Yu Ren simply didn't think about it. Leave it to fate!

Seeing that Yu Ren didn't speak anymore, Yuqi'er didn't say anything to him anymore, just rode her horse to the west.

Because it was too dark, Yu Qi'er only rushed to the road in the middle of the night, and when she saw that she was far away from Zhenjiang City, she stopped and lit a fire in a forest.

Because of the hurry of coming out, neither of them brought anything to eat. Fortunately, they all ate some leg of lamb in the afternoon. In order to prevent Yu Ren from escaping, Yuqi'er deliberately found a tree vine to tie him up before going to bed. Then two more fires were made beside him.

Unlike the south, there are almost no insects and snakes here, and the only thing to worry about in the wild is wild wolves. So Yuqi'er made a few more fires.

The night was spent safely. Early the next morning, the two continued westward. He hadn't walked a few miles before he heard a chaotic sound of footsteps behind him. It sounded like the sound of mules and horses, and there were quite a few of them, at least thirty or fifty of them. This made Yuqi'er a little strange.

Liaodong is different from the Ming Dynasty, there are no cars and horses here. Although many families had livestock such as horses and mules, and often used them to travel, thirty or forty people like this were sent out together except for war. But at present, this area of Liaodong has long been under the control of the Jurchens, and there has been no war for several years.

Yu Qi'er reacted very quickly, and her first reaction was: Yu Ren's subordinates were chasing after her. So, without waiting for Yu Ren to react, Yu Qi'er drove the horse into the forest on the side of the road, and then reached out to cover Yu Ren's mouth.

As soon as the two of them had taken up their hiding in the woods, they saw a group of men riding mules and horses rushing over.

As soon as Yuqi'er saw these people, she immediately put down Yu Ren and shouted outside, "Hey, Yanggutai, I'm here." ”

When those people heard Yuqi'er's shout, they all stopped. Yu Ren fixed his eyes and looked closely. It turned out that they were the guards of the Quirks who had escaped from the canyon last night.

By this time many of their clothes had been torn, some of them had only half of their jackets left, some of them had a large hole in their clothes, and they were sitting on all kinds of mounts, mules, horses, and donkeys. Obviously, these mounts are not their original ones, they should have been snatched from other villages after escaping from the canyon.

Although they were embarrassed, they were still very excited when they saw Yuqi'er. You must know that for them, whether Zhenjiang City is lost or not, they don't care, it doesn't matter if the guards lose eight or nine times out of ten, the most important thing is that Yuqi'er can't have an accident.

If something happened to Yuqi'er, even if they all went back intact and Zhenjiang City was not lost, they would also be executed by the Great Khan. And as long as Yuqi'er is okay, then everything is easy to do. In war, how can there be immortals; If the city is lost, it can be recaptured, not to mention that for Zhenjiang City, they have no responsibility to defend the land, their responsibility is only to protect the safety of Yugege.

Therefore, when Yang Gutai heard Yuqi'er's shout, he was the first to jump off his horse and greet Yuqi'er.

Seeing Yu Ren sitting on the horse, everyone immediately became nervous again, and pulled out their waist knives one after another.

Yuqi'er waved her hand. "Don't be nervous, he's my captive now." After speaking, Yu Qi'er proudly walked up to Yu Ren and patted his thigh, "Isn't it!" Brother-in-law! ”

Yu Ren glared at Yu Qi'er and did not speak. What can he say! Blame yourself for being too careless. He can't say, you cheat, let's do it again! It's a war, not a game. Wars have always been fought by unscrupulous means.

These Jurchens were a little unconvinced when they heard that this terrible opponent had actually become their captives, but Yu Ren's demeanor proved it all to them.

When they were convinced that this terrible figure had really become their prisoner, the crowd finally couldn't help but let out a burst of cheers.

After the cheers, a Jurchen stepped forward and tried to pull Yu Ren off his horse.

When Yuqi'er saw it, she glared at him. "What are you doing? Don't be rude! ”

The Jurchen saw that Yuqi'er was angry, and was startled, and quickly let go of the hand that had already grabbed Yu Ren. This straight-hearted Jurchen man couldn't understand why they were so polite to this enemy. However, he still didn't dare not disobey Yuqi'er's orders.

"He killed so many of our brothers. Those Han people who were ambushing us in the canyon must have colluded with him.

I, I'm going to slash him with a knife. Avenge our dead brothers! ”

Although the man let Yu Ren go, he didn't seem to give up, and he was still arguing with excitement on his face.

Yuqi'er's face was cold. "No, I can't. This man will be of great use to us in the future. Besides, he's my brother-in-law! You must not be rude to him again, you know! ”

These Jurchens were very hostile to Yu Ren. However, despite their hatred, they did not dare to disobey Yuqi'er's orders.

Everyone welcomed Yuqi'er back to the official road. Yang Gutai asked Yuqi'er. "Gege, what are we going to do now? Do you want to go back to Liaoyang? ”

Yuqi'er glanced at Yu Ren and asked Yang Gutai. "Do any of you know that Zhenjiang City is still in our hands?"

Yangutai shook his head. "Nope. The city of Zhenjiang has been captured by the Han Chinese. After we broke out of the siege from the canyon last night, we fled to Zhenjiang City. However, before we reached ten miles outside the city, we encountered a group of defenders in our Zhenjiang City. We thought they were here to save us. As a result, I only found out when I asked. It turned out that at the same time that we were attacked in the canyon, Zhenjiang City was also attacked by the Ming army.

A group of troops under the banner of the Ming army raided Zhenjiang City, and most of the defenders in the city were killed and wounded by them, and the rest of the people fled one after another when they saw that they could not resist. ”

Although the fall of Zhenjiang had long been expected by Yuqi'er, it was confirmed from Yang Gutai's mouth that she still had some small surprises.

"Do you know who their leader is?"

"I heard that it was a Ming army general named Mao Wenlong." Yangutai replied.

Yuqi'er turned around and glanced at Yu Ren. "Brother-in-law, this Mao Wenlong is your subordinate!"

Yu Ren shook his head. "I don't know Mao Wenlong. You should have heard Yuqian talk about it. I'm a pirate by training, so I don't have any dealings with these officers and soldiers. They can't be my men! Those who were ambushed in the canyon were indeed arranged by me. But I really don't know this Mao Wenlong who invaded Zhenjiang. I originally planned to eat your escort team first, and then attack Zhenjiang City, but I didn't expect to be given a head start by this Mao Wenlong. What a pity! ”

Yuqi'er blinked, although she did hear Yu Yuqian say that Yu Ren had been a thief in the East China Sea, but she still didn't believe that this Mao Wenlong would have nothing to do with Yu Ren. She didn't believe that such a coincidence could happen in this world.

Yu Ren's identity is already very complicated, and Yu Yuqian doesn't know much about him. The things that this Yu Gege knew about Yu Ren were all told to her by Yu Yuqian, so naturally there were even less. These things are often occasionally talked about when she chats with Yu Yuqian'er. Therefore, Yu Qi'er has not yet figured out whether Yu Ren's identity is an officer or a pirate.

"Let's go, go back to Zhenjiang." Yu Qi'er said, stepping on Yu Ren's horse again. She decided to find out first whether this guy named Mao Wenlong had anything to do with Yu Ren. The city was lost, and she couldn't run back without even figuring out the situation. In this way, others will laugh at her for being a coward, not like the granddaughter of the Great Khan.
