Everyone else could see what Ji Zhongchuan was worried about.
Ji Mingyou and the men of the Ji family on the side all had pale faces, fearing that Vice General Lin and the Xiong brothers would ignore them and throw away Ji Zhongchuan's hand and leave.
Vice General Lin glanced at them, then turned his head and looked at Shen Lie behind him.
Dai Yu and Du Xuan followed Shen Lie, and when they saw this look, they both frowned.
"It would be better to do this," Lieutenant General Lin said, "Kaide and I stay here while Kai Jing leads the troops. Shao Xia Shen is very brave, so Shao Shen will follow Kai Jing."
Xiong Kai is actually the second eldest among the Xiong brothers. His tendons are more developed than Dai Yu's. He really lives up to his name, he is a bear.
Ji Zhongchuan thought this was very good and looked at Shen Lie to ask his opinion.
Du Xuan felt unhappy and was about to speak when he heard Vice General Lin say: "Shen Langjun will not refuse to agree. He told me before that he would do his best to protect the Ji family."
"Yes," Shen Lie rode forward, "That's what I said."
Ji Xiahe was very unhappy. He suddenly gritted his teeth and clapped his hands and stepped forward: "I want to go with you!"
Mrs. Sun was in the carriage behind. When she heard this, her eyes widened and she was about to get out of the carriage to stop someone. She was pulled by Ji Mingyou's wife, Mrs. Zeng, and said: "You have to take the overall situation into consideration. In this situation, if you stop them If I don’t let Jiulang leave, what if the eccentric Shen Lie refuses to leave too?”
Mrs. Sun frowned and looked towards her.
Mrs. Zeng patted the back of her hand soothingly: "It'll be okay, don't worry."
The more she said this, the more uneasy Mrs. Sun felt. She took her hand away from Mrs. Zeng, only regretting that her husband was not around now.
Xiong Kai unexpectedly led the team and left with a group of troops.
Dai Yu left with Shen Lie and Ji Xiahe. Du Xuan was not good at it, and Shen Lie didn't want him to go, so he stayed behind.
Hundreds of people quickly left on horseback, running forward in the heavy rain. The long team behind them did not stay, and just as Shen Lie said before, they began to run for a long distance.
The female family members were shocked by the accelerated speed in the car. They held on to the car tightly and almost didn't fall out due to the downward slope.
At the same time, the scouts behind him easily found the ruts and horse hoof prints left by Ji's team.
The rain in the distance was not light, but not to the point of pouring. After the scouts went back to report, the news was immediately sent to the four-horse carriage in front of the army.
The man sitting in the carriage was particularly young. He was only in his early twenties when he commanded the army. He was upset by the rain and had been closing his eyes to rest. Hearing this, he opened his eyes. A pair of deep eyes revealed a cold light and he said lightly: "Rutt." Is the printing clear?"
"Clear! It should be nearby!" the scout said.
"Zhuan Lu Qiyuan." The man said.
Not long after, a military general came on horseback and respectfully shouted: "Your Majesty!"
"Take three thousand soldiers and horses to the direction of Qinghe Mountain. The Ji family may be there. If you encounter them, keep them alive if you can. If you can't, remember to bring back their heads."
There were three thousand soldiers and horses in one attack. It would be a bit fussy to deal with a fleeing Ji family. Lu Qiyuan was a little puzzled. Even if King Xunping was angry about the Ji family killing soldiers and blocking the city gate, he would not waste his troops like this.
However, he never dared to ask a single question about the decision made by the prince nicknamed "Iron King of Hell", and responded: "I will obey your orders!"
Jin Hongkang raised his finger to signal the people outside to lower the car curtain.
The sky was already dark, but once the curtains were lowered, the interior of the carriage became even darker.
Jin Hongkang's always cold eyes suddenly showed a hint of desire and excitement.
He has been marching for many years and has not lost many battles. He has never failed to pursue someone, except for Jiangzhou last year.
Letting Guo Zhaohai leave Jiangzhou safely and return to Zuilu was the top priority that Jin Hongkang had been treating as a shame in the past few months, and it was not only Guo Zhaohai, but also Shen Lie who was left behind.
Although it was just an accidental encounter and he did not receive any order to capture Guo Zhaohai, he tried his best, arranged his troops and set up a dragnet, but no one was caught. What a shame and humiliation.
Not to mention, Shen Lie still dares to set foot in Daping now. Since he dares to come, and since he doesn't take them seriously, he should wait to die.
Even without these three thousand pursuing troops, I don't believe that Shen Lie would be able to pass the pass ahead.
·
The stronghold in the direction of Guyan Town was quickly blocked by the mountains of Qinghe Mountain and was left behind.
The carriage was running very fast, and when it encountered a big rock on the way downhill, a carriage suddenly overturned, and several delicate and elegant women in the carriage were thrown to pieces.
The team stopped and helped them up.
Ji Zhongchuan's two daughters were both in the car. It was rare that Ji Zhongchuan didn't feel distressed. He asked the maids next to him to quickly help him up, but they were told that one of the wheels was broken.
"Then give me a substitute quickly!" Ji Zhongchuan shouted directly.
The two daughters were unhappy and started to argue with Ji Zhongchuan, complaining loudly.
Ji Zhongchuan was completely impatient, flicked his sleeves, and rode away.
Lieutenant General Lin was waiting in front, watching the situation behind him coldly. When Ji Zhongchuan approached, Lieutenant General Lin said, "What a bunch of useless burdens."
When Ji Zhongchuan heard this, he couldn't be happy. He raised his eyes and looked at Vice General Lin: "What are you talking about? That is my daughter."
"Kill your wife to beg the general, cook your son and offer him rice, bury your son to serve your mother," Lieutenant General Lin said, "Have you ever heard of it?"
Ji Zhongchuan was shocked, and his eyes turned horrified as he looked at Vice Admiral Lin.
Lieutenant General Lin's appearance became numb and cold-blooded in his eyes, and the tone of his words just now was too calm, making Ji Zhongchuan's scalp feel numb.
"It's just a few women," Lieutenant General Lin added. "A few years ago there was a famine. How many people ate their own daughters and wives? You don't care."
After speaking coldly, Vice General Lin turned his horse around and walked forward.
Ji Zhongchuan felt cold sweat in his palms. Looking back at his daughters who were still cursing, Ji Zhongchuan suddenly felt that Vice General Lin was definitely not just talking...
Once a horse gallops, its speed is very fast.
However, it had only been more than an hour, and the distance between the hundreds of people rushing in front and the cavalry behind had already widened considerably.
Qinghe Mountain has long been far behind, completely invisible. There are several deserted villages on both sides, as well as a sizable town.
The rain has gradually slowed down, and there are people returning from farming in twos and threes holding umbrellas on the roadside. Many of them still have their trousers rolled up.
When they saw the cavalry rushing towards them, their momentum and speed made them think they were horse thieves, so they ran away from a distance.
Bypassing this town and continuing forward, you will find the southeastern side of Lining, separated by the longest diagonal distance from the shore of Bajiang Lake where Xia Zhaoyi originally lived.
In front of them will be the first level they want to pass today, Ma Tou Station.
