Chapter 174 Give me five days
Before Han Yuyang could express his position, Su Tongtong stood up. After learning about her master's whereabouts, she hoped to rush over and have a look.
"My master founded the Snow Trace Organization to fight against the local lords and forces in the north. There must be a reason why he appeared at the scene where that adult was killed."
"Just take me with you, and I guarantee that we, Xuehen, have never been enemies with the imperial court, and the master will definitely not kill that gentleman."
Jiang Chen originally did not agree with Su Tongtong accompanying him. He felt that bringing this girl along would not be of much use. If he really encountered danger, he would have to focus on protecting her safety.
However, Shen Xueying felt that Su Tongtong might be able to dig out some clues, which could at least help him contact the Snow Trace Organization, and thus find Lu Ce, who might have witnessed the entire attack.
In the end, Jiang Chen agreed, and the three of them were ready to set off immediately.
Before leaving, Jiang Chen called Han Yuyang aside and warned: "Old Han, I'll leave this to you. I have a hunch that this matter is related to the Shen family, and maybe it will be a blow to Shen Yinglong. Excellent opportunity.”
"I have no doubt about your ability, but I still need to worry about the soldiers' food, clothing and supplies. If we continue to be stationed in this undefeable snowy plain, danger will be constantly hanging over everyone's head."
Han Yuyang looked at the mountains covered with white snow in the distance. Everyone had a premonition that enemies would come like a tide from the intersection of the foothills and the snow line.
Although the Qishan cavalry won some battles and forced the Beiyan people back to Liaocheng, these results were achieved in encounters with small forces and under the premise of pre-set ambush.
If you want to completely defeat the Beiyan army, you must defeat the opponent in a head-on confrontation. However, it is impossible to do it with just Qishan's troops at the moment, so the overall situation of the war has not fundamentally changed.
Han Yuyang was worried, and now he most truly understood the meaning behind the heavy responsibility of the former coach Duanmu Hongtu, who worked hard every day.
Every decision he makes as a coach will be related to the life and death of thousands of soldiers. Han Yuyang has never lacked the determination and will to kill the enemy and defend the country, and die on the battlefield, but because of his body, he sacrificed his brothers in Wanqishan. He hesitated because of his safety.
"Five days."
"What did you say?"
"Give me five days, and I will open the gate of Wangchuan City and personally go out to welcome you and the brothers from Qishan into the city!"
Jiang Chen's words were heard, and Han Yuyang showed an expression of disbelief. The two had experienced the test of life and death along the way, and they already had brotherly feelings for each other. Jiang Chen could understand Han Yuyang's mood, and the latter was also worried. Jiang Chen's safety.
"I know you are not joking. If someone else dared to say such shameless words to me, I would definitely knock him on the head with my fist."
Han Yuyang smiled with bright eyes: "But you are the one who said this, so I believe it."
"Of course you should believe it and wait for me."
Jiang Chen turned around and left without saying anything more. He took firm steps, leaving footprints along the way that seemed to have stepped on Han Yuyang's heart.
"Brother, I and tens of thousands of brothers in Qishan will be waiting for your good news."
Three people and three cavalrymen galloped out of the camp at the same time. Taking advantage of the good weather, they needed to rush to the scene of the murder of He Yingqin as soon as possible.
Jiang Chen asked Shen Xueying: "How many people did the Night Criminal Division lose this time?"
"Twenty-three brothers committed suicide. When they decided to join the Night Punishment Division, they swore to fight for our supreme beliefs, even if they died!"
Shen Xueying's light green face showed determination and faint murderous intent. When she learned the news for the first time, she secretly vowed to find the perpetrators one by one and kill them all.
He Yingqin secretly went north. Such an important move would inevitably be accompanied by people from the Night Punishment Division. Therefore, the Night Punishment Division also suffered huge losses this time.
It's time for them to respond.
The night went on non-stop, and the three of them finally arrived at the scene at dawn. However, what made Shen Xueying find it strange was that the members of the Night Criminal Division who were supposed to be stationed on the spot were nowhere to be seen.
"In a place like the North, a heavy snowfall can often bury all traces under the snow. I don't know what other clues I can find. Feel free to check it out."
"I'll go look around. Our people should be stationed here."
Jiang Chen nodded, dismounted and began to inspect the scene. He found a branch and fiddled with the snow on the ground seemingly casually. Judging from the thickness of the snow, it must have snowed for at least two days and two nights.
.
Su Tongtong didn't know what Jiang Chen was looking for, and it seemed like people didn't have time to pay attention to her appearance, so she just stepped on the snow under her feet, unconsciously wondering why her master appeared here.
Originally, one of the people she respected was her master Lu Ce, and the other was Mr. Ruan.
Unexpectedly, Ruan Lianggong turned out to be a traitor. He not only brutally forced the always kind-hearted Mr. Zhong to death, but also wanted to burn her and Jiang Chen to death. Su Tongtong still can't believe this sudden turn of events.
"I really killed Mr. Ruan with my own hands. No, he was a hateful traitor. I did this for the Snow Mark Organization!"
While he was in a trance, Jiang Chen seemed to have found something in the snow. He suddenly squatted down, reached out and took out a handful of powdery stuff from the snow, brought it to his nose and sniffed it carefully.
This move is puzzling, but Jiang Chen looks particularly serious.
Shen Xueying came back from a distance soon. When he saw Jiang Chen slowly getting up without saying a word, he knew that he had not found any valuable clues as expected.
She said: "It's normal that you can't find anything. After all, the weather in the north is like this. It takes less than a cup of tea to cover up all traces, as if it never existed."
"Also, I think the area around here is a bit weird. The people who are supposed to be stationed here are completely missing."
Shen Xueying felt vaguely uneasy. She felt that she should leave here immediately. Such a strong premonition did not often occur, so she believed that this was some kind of warning.
"Although I couldn't find any obvious clues, I found this, left behind by the murderer."
Jiang Chen walked towards Shen Xueying and opened his palm. All he saw was a piece of rag that was solidly frozen by the ice and snow. At first glance, he didn't think this thing had much value.
Su Tongtong asked curiously: "This is a piece of rag, what is it for?"
