Chapter 126: Crossing the River
Bailidu rode on the horse to force himself to calm down, but his slightly trembling hand betrayed his emotions, "Xiao Han, let people block the ferry immediately, let Qianxun immediately track down the whereabouts of the nine girls, and in addition, call the guards here to me, you immediately return to the camp, and let Deputy General Liu Qun order 10,000 soldiers and horses to be ready to go out at any time!"
Seeing Xiao Han take the order and leave, Bailidu and the guards kneeling on the ground said, "Get up, gather your team and go to the torture camp to receive the punishment." As he spoke, he jumped off his horse and walked into the house.
The dead old man and his daughter were parked on the floor of the house, and his and his daughter's faces had been peeled off, presumably the enemy used his face to deceive Xiao Xuan's trust.
Bailidu looked at the things in the house, trying to see if there were any clues from the middle. No matter who moved Xuan'er, he would make the other party pay.
"The general of Huxuan Village, Du Zhe, has seen the general. Outside the door, a big man clasped his hands into fists and saluted Bailidu.
Bailidu turned around, and his handsome and peerless face became calm again, "Excuse me, let me ask you, is there any suspicious person out of the village tonight?"
"Back to the general's words, no one left the village, but there was an old man in the village, her daughter died, he used a car to pull his daughter to the mountain behind to bury him, whether he crossed the mountain, his subordinates do not know. The guard had heard that the young general was ruthless, but seeing such a handsome face, he could not associate him with those four words.
"Ben will remember saying that this place is going to be completely locked down, why is there no one guarding the mountain?" Bailidu's face sank, and his sharp eyes looked at him with a chill to the bone.
That kind of gaze made Du Zhe fall into a cold pool, and the murderous aura emanating from the general's body made him tremble, and Du Zhe knelt on the ground with a "poof", "General, there is a cliff behind the mountain, so there is no one to guard it." ”
"Come on, take Du Zhe down and punish him for dereliction of duty!" Bailidu didn't give him a chance to explain again;
It seems that Xiao Xuan has been taken away. Ignoring Du Zhe's voice shouting for mercy behind him, Bailidu rode back to the camp.
Liu Qun and Xiao Han had already been waiting here, and when the two saw Bailidu coming back, they knelt on the ground and saluted, "My subordinates have seen the general!"
"Get up. Bailidu jumped off his horse, his voice was calm and could not hear a trace of emotion, threw the reins of the horse to Xiao Han, turned around and walked towards his camp, and said as he went, "Let all the soldiers go to the ferry at once and prepare to cross the river, before the time, I will go to the Jianglong Mountain." ”
The two looked at the back of Bailidu leaving, they both knew the danger of the army crossing the river at night, but who dared to say more when the general spoke.
Liu Qun saw the general walking away before he asked quietly, "Chief Xiao, do you know why the general suddenly crossed the river?"
"I don't know. How dare Xiao Han talk about the general in private, so he could only divert the topic, "The general said that he crossed the river tonight, and the boats were ready?"
"There weren't that many ships, but 10,000 horses could pass in several times. ”
Xiao Han nodded, "You and I will prepare separately!"
When Bailidu arrived at the ferry again, the army had already been assembled, looking at the turbulent water, pondering for a moment, "Xiao Han..."
"The subordinates are here. Xiao Han immediately stepped forward, "What does the general command?"
"This operation is as confidential as possible. After crossing the river, Liu Qun took 2,000 soldiers with me, and the remaining 8,000 men hid in the Mt. Ulon and turned into scattered detachments, disguised as farmers or merchants to infiltrate the rear of the enemy army, and let Qianxun lead the troops to carry out small-scale attacks. All this is arranged, you come to my ship. After the order, Bailidu took the lead in getting on the boat.
Although the Yushui River is turbulent, because spring has just arrived, there is not a lot of rain, so the boat is quite stable.
After Xiao Han arranged all the military affairs, he got on the gangplank and boarded the general's special boat, and entered the cabin, the general was closing his eyes on the recliner, his handsome face was obviously tired, and his eyebrows were furrowed, he must be worried about the nine girls. Xiao Han quietly followed him in front of him, not daring to disturb the general's rest.
After a moment, Bailidu opened his eyes, his eyes as bright as stars, surging with melancholy, "Have you contacted Qianxun?"
"Back to the general's words, General Ye sent back the news that they were already spreading rumors during the day today, but the time was too short to cause panic among the enemy troops. Xiao Han immediately replied, in fact, he knew in his heart that the general wanted to know the news of the ninth girl, but Qianxun did not send back the news about her.
Bailidu closed his eyes again, he analyzed that the person who robbed Xiao Xuan was King Jian, but there is no definite news now, and he doesn't know what happened to her.
The sky was getting brighter, the sky was full of dark clouds, and the originally warm wind was a little bone-chilling because of the lack of sunlight.
The army was stationed at the foot of the Mt. Jian, because of the sudden outbreak of the epidemic on the other side of the river, which stopped the army here. This expedition was personally led by King Jian. Originally, he didn't want to rebel, but he had been relying on Chu Yang's snort, and he sent a message to him to send troops, but he didn't dare to resist.
A few days ago, he received an order from Chu Yang to rob the woman named Xuan Jiu no matter what, and he sent someone to follow him for several days and finally found an opportunity, but after he robbed Xuan Jiu, he received the news that Bailidu crossed the river overnight, and he was a little restless now;
This general is not easy to mess with, and he has never been defeated, and the two kings of Qingyi some time ago are a lesson for him. Although he has an army of 30,000 in charge, it is difficult to guarantee that this general will be ruthless and let him not come back! And the prince of Chu has no news now, and he doesn't know when he will be able to take Xuan Jiu away.
"Someone. King Jian sat in the big tent and paced back and forth, thinking about it for a long time, he still felt that it was safer to send Xuan Jiu back to the fiefdom.
"I've seen the prince in my humble position, I don't know what the prince commanded?" came in a man who looked like a military advisor in his forties. A pair of small eyes sparkled, and at first glance, he knew that he was a ruthless character.
"Master Wu, how is that Xuan Jiu now?" King Jian stopped when he saw him, turned around and sat on the chair, "General Zhu came in just now and said that someone had kidnapped her, what do you think about this matter?"
"Back to the prince's words, that man is not afraid, he is just a teenager that Xuan Jiu once saved. We've already arrested him and been with Xuanjiuguan!" Wu Tai looked calm, he was King Jian's military advisor, and he basically gave the prince ideas for the big and small things in this army.
"Well, the prince of Chu has explained, don't let her be wronged, send a few girls over for a while, and serve her well. King Jian listened to Wu Tai's words and was a lot more relieved, but he suddenly thought that Bailidu had already crossed the river, and his heart rose again, "Master Wu, do you know that Bailidu has already come?"
