"You're not thinking about anything obscene, are you?"
"How is it possible? I am such an upright person."
Qin Yun smiled, and after she finished bandaging, the two left here together.
"I marked it on the road. As long as this dense forest doesn't move, we will definitely be able to get out smoothly."
After saying that, Li Ruyi glanced at him. Qin Yun knew that she was angry again because of her desperate efforts, and quickly explained: "I didn't have time to mark Yan Shaoning when I was chasing him. He ran too fast."
"Okay, I don't want to listen to your explanation. After we go back, we can repair the camp for a few days and then we can withdraw our troops and return to Daxia."
Li Ruyi frowned and said: "This time is actually not a big battle, but the opponent is more difficult, so we spend more time."
Qin Yun nodded in agreement.
Neither Shen Tujian nor Wanyan Shaoning are easy to deal with. If Zhuge Xianqiao hadn't come up with some ideas, the war would have lasted longer.
With Li Ruyi leading the way, the two of them left the dense forest smoothly. Xia Mu and the other three were relieved to see the two of them returning safely with Wanyan Shaoning's head.
Xiang Jiequn shouted uncontrollably: "Impossible! How could you come back alive!"
"snort."
Qin Yun just sneered and ignored him.
"Asshole! Why do you want to tie me up? Give me a good time if you can!"
Xiang Jiequn's eyes were horrified, and some bad guesses appeared in his mind.
He knew Xia Zi's methods very well, and the reason why he didn't kill him was not because he wanted to let him go.
There is a high probability that Xia Zizi did not want him, a traitor, to die too simply.
Once he returns to Daxia, what awaits him is likely to be a torture.
Xiang Jiequn might as well be dead now.
But the others ignored his quarrel and threw Xiang Jiequn directly into a tent. They tied him to the table and sent several soldiers to take turns guarding him.
But just this, Li Ruyi felt that it was not enough. She asked several generals to stay idle and watch Xiang Jiequn when they had time to prevent him from escaping.
If they were to escape in a place like this, they would really have nowhere to find anyone.
"Understood, with a few of us here, this old guy can't even think about running away."
Among them, the one who hated Xiang Jiequn the most was Yi Rui. He wished he could live in the camp every day. He would not leave the camp unless the other generals came to change shifts. He was so angry that Xiang Jiequn would not even eat every day. , patronizing and scolding him.
Two days later, the army was reorganized, and Li Ruyi led everyone to leave Dayao and embark on the return journey.
Since there were no horse bandits or other thieves on the way back, they moved much faster. On the way, Li Ruyi also took time to count the casualties.
Fortunately, there were no more than 2,000 people. In such a cruel war, the sacrifice rate was very low.
After all, as long as you participate in a war, casualties are inevitable. As marshal, Li Ruyi and Qin Yun as generals have done their best.
Of course, this is excluding the group of soldiers that Xiang Jiequn took away. If they were added, even three thousand people would not be able to defeat them.
On the way, when Qin Yun was guarding him, he mentioned Chang Feng.
"You left, but Chang Feng died under my gun. Do you think it's my fault?"
Xiang Jiequn sneered.
"If you hadn't missed the past relationship, how could Chang Feng die?"
This time, it was Qin Yun's turn to sneer.
"Sentiment? Is it a sign of affection that you send people to assassinate me? Or is it a sign of affection that Chang Feng makes things difficult for my soldiers?"
Xiang Jiequn's expression changed.
"So you know everything. If that's the case, why do you keep swallowing your anger?"
"It's very simple, because I am a general, and every move I make affects the lives of my soldiers, and even the victory or defeat of my army. Therefore, I cannot easily fight with you. Once there is a fight, Wanyan Shaoning and the others will succeed."
Xiang Jiequn was silent for a while.
"What happened to Hou Yong and the others? Why did they come so fast?"
In response, Qin Yun just smiled.
"You don't think that His Majesty completely trusts us, do you?"
Xiang Jiequn's pupils shrank slightly, and he roughly understood what was going on.
He gritted his teeth and cursed angrily: "They are all a bunch of bad guys!"
This old guy was in trouble, and Qin Yun didn't bother to talk to him.
If he had known this, it would be better to let Yi Rui look at him and occasionally make him angry.
Four days later, they returned to the capital.
The cheers of the crowd were overwhelming, drowning them.
And Xia Tianzi had been waiting outside the palace for a long time, waiting for their triumphant return.
When he saw that the generals he sent out were unharmed, he couldn't be more happy.
"Not bad! Not bad! You are worthy of being my general! Qin Yun, you have made great contributions in this war. If you want any reward, just tell me and I will definitely satisfy you!"
Xia Tianzi held up Wanyan Shaoning's head and smiled heartily.
"As long as it is awarded by His Majesty, I feel honored."
"You're the only one who can talk."
"But...I really want to trouble Your Majesty with something."
"Say, man, what does your mother-in-law look like?"
Qin Yun smiled and said, "Does your Majesty know Miss Zhuge's name?"
"Of course, I know what you want to say. That girl is very smart. Xu Huibao has shown me her drawings. The light crossbows can be mass-produced. As for the artillery, we can also consider building a few more."
Xia Tianzi smiled slightly.
"Zhuge Xianqiao is really a genius. Since you want someone, then I will discuss it with Duke Cheng and let her enter Duke Cheng's mansion on a certain day!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"No gifts, no gifts. I am happy today. I don't have to abide by so many red tapes. Also, this is not a request. My dear, why don't you go back and think about it again. As you said, I will satisfy you whatever you want!"
After the pleasantries, it’s time to talk about business.
The smile on Xia Zi's face faded slightly, and then asked: "Where is Xiang Jiequn?"
"It's over there, guarded by General Yi Rui."
Xia Tianzi sneered.
"Okay, what a Xiang Jiequn, I never thought that he would rebel!"
Thinking about it carefully, he treated Xiang Jiequn very well, and even took good care of his family.
After all, Xiang Jiequn is an old general, and Xia Zizi still feels guilty for letting him continue to fight on the battlefield.
But now it seems that his good intentions may not be able to earn Xiang Jiequn's loyalty.
Xia Zi has never been merciful towards rebellious people.
"This old guy...has done so many evil things, and I have tolerated him for a long time."
Xia Tianzi stepped forward slowly.
Seeing this, Xia Mu murmured: "No wonder His Majesty wants us to capture Xiang Jiequn alive. It seems... this guy has committed a lot of crimes."
"Shh, don't lie."
