Chapter 165: The Unknown Person
Chapter 165: The Unknown Person
"Stop? Ridiculous!" Xia Yuanchen hated the enemy and would not be happy unless he killed them. Now that he met them, how could he let them go?
"Major General, don't chase after a desperate enemy!" Jiang Yue realized that the enemy must be deliberately luring Xia Yuanchen into the trap.
After all, Xia Yuanchen is more youthful and energetic than Ling Yunxiao.
But how could Xia Yuanchen listen to her?
"If you don't want to chase me, then forget it. Don't try to stop me, or I'll punish you as a spy!"
While Xia Yuanchen was talking, he had already left.
Not only him, a team of ten guards on the city wall also followed suit.
On the city wall, more than a hundred soldiers take turns standing guard every day.
Jiang Yue thought,
A young man in fine clothes and riding a vigorous horse, with a heart full of passion, I can run wild!
Her current status makes her influence insignificant.
She stood alone at the city gate, watching the young general's footsteps gradually fading away.
Just as she was about to chase him, she was suddenly bumped into. Before she could turn around, she saw a man running out of the city gate, and he had already walked away from her.
"Stop!" The voices of two other guards chasing came from behind.
Before the next garrison commander arrived, General Ling Yunxiao had already announced that no citizen in the city was allowed to leave the city at will.
After hearing this, Jiang Yue moved as fast as an arrow. In a moment, she was standing behind the man.
A backhand caught him.
The two guards breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
One person looked at Jiang Yue:
"Thank you, little brother." Because they saw that Jiang Yue and the major general knew each other, and now Jiang Yue helped them catch the man, so his attitude was naturally very good.
The guard thanked him and nodded to another guard beside him.
Of course, this person must be sent to prison.
One person said, "You are not allowed to go out casually in Linzhou City, don't you know?"
Seeing this, the man knelt on the ground and said, "General, spare my life!"
He raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Yue, "That young master just saved me, I came to thank you."
After hearing this, the two guards stopped their actions.
Jiang Yue saw clearly that the person coming was the one that the major general rescued at that time.
What could she say? This good relationship was established by the Major General.
"You should wait until the Major General comes back to thank you."
It is better to have less trouble than more. It is not her turn to take care of this matter.
At this time, the two guards couldn't help but become suspicious when they heard this.
They looked at Jiang Yue, and one of them asked,
"Did the Major General really save him?"
"Yeah." Jiang Yue told the truth about what she saw.
"So, he is not a spy?" The two soldiers nodded in agreement as they said this.
Jiang Yue couldn't just wrongly accuse a good person.
He only said to the man: "You go into the city first. You will see the Major General sooner or later."
The two guards relaxed their expressions. Because of the war, the people in the city were in a state of unrest. They were too busy trying to appease them and did not dare to threaten them anymore.
"Go into the city. You want to get close to the young general, but don't you know what you are like?"
When the man heard this, he raised his eyes again and said to Jiang Yue:
“I want to join the army!”
"I am just a nobody, I can't make the decision." Jiang Yue took a few steps forward and moved away from him.
I don't want this person to come up again.
"Originally, I was unable to join the army because my three brothers all went to the battlefield. Now that my brothers have died in battle, I want to avenge them!"
Jiang Yue: I didn’t expect that I would still be such a miserable person.
"Then follow the formal process and sign up!"
"I don't have a household registration, so I can't be included." The man looked at Jiang Yue pleadingly.
"I am from Youlan Prefecture. Later, when Youlan City was destroyed, I fled to Linzhou City with my family. I begged along the way. My mother fell ill on the way and I was helpless. Later, I met the enemy soldiers of Beiyan disguised as civilians. They gave me two taels of silver. I was happy at that time because I finally had money to treat my mother. However, they threatened me with money and asked me to work for them. I refused, so they killed my mother. Please, help me."
His face was cold when he said this.
After hearing this, Jiang Yue sighed and just hoped that the war would end soon.
She turned around and said, "I'm sorry, but I really have no influence."
"I say, little brother, why are you so disappointing?" Just then, a fifty-year-old man carrying a bag suddenly came to the city gate.
As soon as the old man arrived, he blamed Jiang Yue.
"I've been listening for a long time. This guy just wants to join the army. Aren't we always recruiting soldiers now? It's such a simple question. Can't you just ask him to join the army? Why are you beating around the bush and talking nonsense?"
The old man took a step forward and walked with a limp.
Jiang Yue raised her eyes and paused. She had been listening for a long time? How come she didn't notice it? You know, her vigilance has always been very good.
She looked closely at the man in front of her. He had gray hair on his temples, was not tall, and his clothes were messy.
"Who are you?"
After saying that, she looked at the two guards beside her.
"Do you know him?"
They both shook their heads at the same time, "I don't know him."
One of them asked in a serious tone: "Where are you from, old man?"
Another person responded: "There is chaos and turmoil here, why are you heading to the border? Go back quickly."
His legs and feet are not convenient, but he still runs around.
"Old man? Who am I?" The old man pointed at himself and asked himself, he was so angry that he didn't want to talk.
Then, he lifted up the man on the ground.
"What's your name and how old are you?"
"Jing San, 19 years old."
"Nineteen? What a great age."
The old man just gave Jiang Yue and the two guards a fierce look.
He pulled Jing San over and headed towards the military camp. "Young man, joining the army is a good thing. If she doesn't help you, I will."
Jiang Yue: "You guys are just leaving like this?"
"Stop!" the two guards said in unison, thinking that this man was too inexplicable.
"It must be a spy from Yanbei, catch him quickly!"
After one person finished speaking, another person echoed, "Of course it is. The Major General said that it is better to catch someone by mistake than to let him go. Let's catch him quickly. If he is really a spy from the enemy country, we will have done a great deed!"
After the two men finished talking, they caught up with the old man in front of them and immediately grabbed him.
But I never thought that although the old man was old, he had excellent martial arts skills.
He suddenly stretched out his palms, and the wind from his palms whistled.
The two guards flew backwards in a peculiar posture, falling down with a thud, their faces turning pale with pain.
This further confirmed that the old man was a spy.
But unfortunately, because of the old man's palm, he couldn't get up for a long time, and there was blood on the corner of his lips.
What should I do if I meet a master? I can’t beat him.
Jiang Yue took action.
She blocked it horizontally, and the old man dodged again.
Jiang Yue dodged it perfectly, and kicked Jing San off target.
He quickly looked at the two guards, "Hold him!"
However, the two guards could not get up.
At this moment, the remaining guards on the city wall saw this scene and quickly went down the city wall.
The old man scowled and said, "You can't tell friend from foe. It's really sad that Donglin has people like you!"
He thought, teach Jiang Yue a lesson.
"At such a young age, you don't even have the slightest compassion. It's hard for you to accomplish great things."
In the blink of an eye, a surge of internal force rushed straight towards Jiang Yue...
