Chapter 644: It's easier for you, Qi Jun, to make meritorious deeds
Su Ping looked at Yi Xin, who suddenly turned pale, and asked the captain next to him strangely:
"Did what I just said scare him?"
The captain smiled and said:
"Then I didn't know that Sir Commander-in-Chief, you have unparalleled momentum. You can scare people with just a shake of your tiger body, let alone deliberately frighten people."
Su Ping raised his leg and gave the captain a kick:
"Your grandson is quite good at flattering me, so get out of here. Today we defeated the Yingte Navy stronghold, rest for the night, break camp tomorrow, go upstream, and go straight to Linzi."
"In ten days, the prince will join us in Linzi, but we can't let that boy Hua Xun get ahead of us."
Su Ping glanced at Yi Xin who was mourning and said:
"Take a good look at him, and then go back to Linzi and hand him over to the Dingxiang Guards. Since he is a high-ranking official of the Qi people, there might be something on him that you can dig out."
Yi Xin was in a state of despair and was escorted by two sailors, and was locked up in a tent. Surrounded by the British who were lucky enough to survive, they were all mumbling incomprehensible words.
Yi Xin had interacted with many Yingte people, so he could still understand some of them, but after listening to a few random words, he found a place to lie down in annoyance.
They all survived by lying on the ground and diving into the water. No one survived by relying on their own ability to dodge the crossbow arrows.
In the past, I thought that the Yingte people were invincible and invincible. They had never been defeated by our Qi army. How come when we got to the Han army, we were beaten to pieces.
Are the Han people great, or are we Qi people too bad?
Yi Xin lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to think clearly.
"You, get up."
A harsh scolding sounded, and immediately after, Yi Xin felt like she had been kicked twice.
When he sat up, he saw an intelligent man standing in front of him, his face full of sarcasm, pointing at himself, gesturing for him to get out of the way.
Yi Xin felt hot in her heart, and anger rushed to her chest.
"Why?"
"This is the place I like. Get out of the way or not? I will open it up for you."
The Yingte man hooked his fingers, and several Yingte sergeants gathered around, gearing up, looking like they wanted to beat up Yi Xin.
"Hit him"
The Yingte people swarmed up, held Yi Xin down, and punched and kicked him.
"Get out of here"
The sound of scolding sounded, and a young sergeant wearing a Han army uniform sat up under the quilt next to the tent and scolded him.
The expressions of the Yingte people on the periphery changed, and they rushed forward. With three strokes, they pulled away the attacking Yingte sergeant, and they all stood aside obediently.
The young sergeant glanced at Yi Xin and yelled angrily:
"Let him sleep here, and you can find a place by yourselves. If we continue to make trouble, my sword will not be merciful."
The young sergeant scolded him and lay down to sleep again, minding his own business.
The troublemaking sergeant Yingte saw the young sergeant lying down, and they all tiptoed to find a place to lie down.
Yi Xin's whole body ached, especially on his scalp, which was badly bruised by a crossbow arrow yesterday and a nasty beating from these idiots today.
Yi Xin tore off a piece of rag and rubbed off the dirt on it. Yi Xin carefully wrapped the cloth on top of her head and lay down carefully.
Looking sideways at the sleeping Han soldier and looking at his exposed neck, Yi Xin was convinced that with his own skills, he could kill him in just one breath.
But he didn't dare.
If you don't take action now, you can still live until Linzi. If you kill this kid, you won't be able to see the sun tomorrow. Not only can you not take action, but the Yingte people around you don't dare to take action either.
Looking at how cowardly they were just now, are they really afraid of this guy?
No, what they were afraid of was the Han troops patrolling outside and the Han troops gathering their weapons.
If you offend this kid, as long as he gives an order, all the prisoners in this camp will be killed.
Drowsily, Yi Xin slept like this all night.
The next day, Yi Xin was woken up by the Han army boy next to him.
"Get up, we're going to eat soon."
"It's so boring. The team leader put me here for nothing, and I'm still thinking of finding a chance to kill you. You're all a coward."
Cursing, the young sergeant got up, finished dressing up, and gave Yi Xin a kick:
"Follow me."
Yi Xin didn't dare to neglect, so she put on her belt and chased after him.
Outside the camp, people and horses were neighing, and soldiers were everywhere with their armor tied up and hurried steps. The gang leader soldiers were carrying large baskets of steamed buns and large buckets of porridge back and forth, and pots of fragrant pickle sticks were thrown into the kitchen.
Outside.
The young sergeant wormed his way through the crowd, nimbly squeezing the elbow of the gang leader, and entered a kitchen. He came out with a few steamed buns and cooked sweet potatoes in his hand.
He threw a sweet potato to Yi Xin who was following him, looked at the steamed bun in his hand, and threw another steamed bun to Yi Xin.
"There are pickles in the basin over there. Make them yourself."
With that said, the sergeant munched sweet potatoes on his own and walked towards the camp in the distance.
Yi Xin glanced at the pickle basin three steps away and thought about going over and pinching two pickles. Suddenly, she remembered the young sergeant's irritable words when he got up.
The Bai Blind Team is arranging for me to sleep here for the night.
A bunch of cowards, no one dares to do anything.
Yi Xin stopped moving closer to the pickle basin, and a thought flashed through her mind, what if we make a move?
Kill the sergeant and we run away?
No, the most likely possibility is that we were unable to kill the sergeant and were cut into pieces by the Han army.
In other words, the young sergeant was looking forward to killing him, and then the sergeants under his command swarmed up and cut us all down.
If I go to get pickles now, will that guy yell at me to poison the pickles, and then stab me instead?
Out of the corner of his eye, Yi Xin noticed the young sergeant next to him. His hand had already been pressed on the handle of the knife. Not far away, there were also a few eyes, paying subtle attention to him.
Yi Xin understood in his heart, turned around and chased the young sergeant. This boy wanted to kill him.
I don't know why, but it's clear that he really wants to kill himself.
Seeing Yi Xin's movements, the young sergeant's shoulders visibly slumped. He led Yi Xin to a guard captain and said irritably:
"Captain Fan, this method of yours won't work at all. We have to take him with us today."
The young man named Fan Xiaowei glanced at Yi Xin and raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth:
"Just take it with you. Your grandson is not reliable in doing things. He also said that my method won't work. Let's see how I deal with you later."
"Everyone is here, rein in the horses and get ready to go."
"Er Louzi, it was you and Shanzi who captured the man and took the credit. We can't ignore this burden. You two take turns taking it."
The young sergeant named Erlouzi had a bitter look on his face, glanced at Yi Xin, and said angrily:
"Let's go, you can sit on my horse later, hum."
Only when the march started did Yi Xin know why Erlouzi wanted to kill him.
Because of the addition of himself, the horse's speed slowed down.
If Erlouzi is slow, their team will be slow, and the entire team will also be slow.
It was originally a five-day journey, but they didn't reach Linzi City until the sixth day.
From a distance, Yi Xin saw the black smoke rising from the top of Linzi City.
On the city wall, a large number of ladders were erected, and the Han army rushed up the city wall like a tide. Every moment, soldiers fell from the top of the city.
The Han and Qi armies also had civilians wearing commoners.
"Damn it, General Hua Xun has attacked the city wall, we are too late."
Colonel Fan's annoyed voice sounded next to him.
Yi Xin glanced at Captain Fan and asked puzzledly:
"Hua Xun attacks the city wall, so you don't have to fight to the death. Isn't that a good thing?"
Colonel Fan gave Yi Xin a slap on the chin.
On the contrary, Erlouzi, who was next to him, had spent a few days with Yi Xin and became more familiar with him, so he explained to him:
"You Qi army are too weak. It would be easiest to make meritorious deeds in fighting with you."
