Chapter 257: Unexpected Circumstances
…
"Lao Li, don't worry, we will definitely be measured, and we will guarantee that there will be no problem." Lao Liu patted his chest at this moment and swore that he would come.
As a veteran who has been following Zang Ba, he is absolutely professional in this aspect.
After all, if you kidnap a hostage, you need the hostage to be alive in order to get what you want.
If the hostages were dead, they would be of little value.
Li Jian nodded when he saw it, he just fainted, and nothing else happened.
If this person is really Cai Yong, it is a little uneasy to hand it over to others.
Li Jian casually threw out the torch he was holding in his left hand, then squatted down, and put the person who had been wrapped on the ground on his back with both hands, ready to carry the person away.
When he got up, Li Jian raised his head and looked at the entire Cai Mansion, which had already ignited a flame, and looked in disbelief that half of the torches in his brothers' hands were already missing.
Thinking about what I did just now, it was really unintentional, not intentional.
"Withdraw, withdraw." Li Jian said directly at this moment, and quickly gave the order without the slightest hesitation.
The flames have already burned, and if they don't retreat at this time, they won't even have a chance to retreat when others come around.
Lao Wang and Lao Liu glanced at each other, and found the embarrassment between each other, as if they hadn't seen Li Jian's expression before.
After all, this parachuted chief, except for being a little timid, is much better than them in terms of thinking in his head and in some invisible details.
It is precisely this situation that the two of them do not reject this chief, but like it.
If after that, all the promotions that Li Jian said become true, then it is estimated that he will be more satisfied.
Upgrade two levels in a row, how many enemies do you have to kill on the battlefield to be able to enjoy?
After following Li Jian, he easily achieved his goal.
When Li Jian and the others were advancing towards the tunnel entrance and leaving Chang'an City.
The residences around Cai's mansion, the people living in it, have already discovered Cai's mansion that has burned and is on fire, and all kinds of voices are everywhere, organizing people to extinguish the flames.
However, the flames burned by alcohol were not so easily extinguished, and when they were extinguished, Cai's mansion had no previous glory, leaving only ruins all over the ground.
"Lao Li, wait a minute, there is danger at the tunnel entrance." Lao Wang said to Li Jian, who was still carrying people on his back.
After Li Jian heard this, he stayed directly in place, although his own strength was not good, but he was quite confident in the strength of the people under him.
However, Li Jian had just stayed where he was, and before he could think about countermeasures, he heard a familiar voice coming from the tunnel entrance.
"Li Jian, hurry up and get out of here, do you know what time it is?"
"Got it, General." Li Jian heard this familiar reprimand and reflexively responded.
Lao Wang retreated at this time, his face was a little embarrassed, as if he had cheated his boss again.
Li Jian didn't care about this, after all, his soldiers were just cautious, and they were also for his own good.
Along the road dug earlier, he walked up step by step with the person on his back.
Lao Wang and Lao Liu took the lead at this time, and directly opened the door of the tunnel, revealing a sky with a little starlight.
Li Jian looked at the scenery in the sky and breathed a sigh of relief, at least it was not yet dawn, and he did not violate the time set by the general.
After Li Jian walked out of the tunnel with people on his back, he found that in the distance, there were many heavily armed soldiers standing in the distance, and they were also carrying strong crossbows.
After Li Jian noticed this scene, he had a deeper feeling for Lao Wang's previous prompt.
"Li Jian, let you deal with the traces, how can you waste such a long time?" Zang Ba's face was a little ugly.
Originally, I had a good impression of Li Jian, even if it was just a person stuffed from other places, but it was still very easy to use if you had a mind and a quick response.
But now that this situation has arisen, it seems that the conditions agreed to before will have to be reconsidered.
"General Hui, the traces have been thoroughly cleaned up under the Xia, and it will definitely not be discovered, and when we were taken away, this person was also found." Li Jian said as he put down the person he was carrying behind his back.
Under the bright starry sky, relying on his physical fitness, Zang Ba easily looked at the person who was put down from behind Li Jian.
Noticing the color of his clothes and hair, beard, and the sword at his waist, Zang Ba understood that this was definitely not an ordinary official, he was definitely in an important position, but he didn't know which official position it was.
"Li Jian, how can you casually bring the officials out, what if you arouse the vigilance of the Chang'an Army?" Zang Ba's face was a little unhappy.
Especially after dawn, when the Son of Heaven is about to give up to Dong Zhuo.
In the entire Chang'an, the army entered a state of high alert, and directly brought out such a high-level official, if it was discovered, it caused a commotion in the entire Chang'an.
At that time, with his little people, I am afraid it will be difficult to leave the Chang'an area.
"General Hui, we can't be blamed for this, it was he who said that Caifu is his home!" Li Jian said in a calm and swift tone, "According to the order you gave earlier, General, the whole Cai Mansion, regardless of men, women, and children, are all tied up, and since he said that the Cai Mansion is his home, it is naturally within the scope of being tied up." ”
Zang Ba was stunned when he heard this, and then quickly ran to Li Jian's side, looking at the person who had fallen asleep seriously.
Stretching out his hand, he carefully checked the material of the garment, something that could prove his identity.
Then he found a jade seal around his waist, and Zang Ba looked directly at the bottom of the jade seal, looking at the words carved on it - Zuo Zhonglang General.
Zang Ba touched it seriously with his hand, with a happy look on his face, he didn't expect that he would tie up so many people and actually miss his goal.
The people who stayed behind to clean up the traces have instead sent out the real target.
"Li Jian, very good, very good, well done." Zang Ba directly reached out and patted Li Jian's shoulder, and said with a smile on his face.
Since this person has been brought out, it means that his task has been completed, and the establishment of a thousand cavalry is basically stable.
"In that case, then General, after me..."Li Jianqiang endured the pain in his shoulder and said to Zang Ba hesitantly.
Zang Ba glanced at Li Jian, and naturally understood what Li Jian was talking about.
"Don't worry, as long as this person can be transported back to Taishan County alive, the cavalry will be able to come down at that time, and the position of centurion of the cavalry will not be able to escape." Zang Ba said with emotion.
