The crossbow arrows shot out angrily, and the doves soared into the sky.
Suddenly there was a loud scream from behind the mound under the tree.
Immediately afterwards, chaotic footsteps sounded, and refugees in tattered clothes fled in all directions.
Leaving a dozen people to guard the rear and surrounding areas, Zhang Han took the lead and drew out his bronze sword and rushed forward, followed closely by the others.
Ying Xuan walked onto the mound.
There were several corpses lying on the slope. It could be seen from the marks on the ground that many people were hiding here and preparing to ambush them.
Just a wave of crossbow arrows frightened them out of their wits. All those who could run ran away, leaving only one man whose leg was pierced by a crossbow arrow.
Sitting on the ground against a tree and enduring the pain, Ying Xuan stepped forward and asked.
"Why do you want to help those rebels?"
The man gritted his teeth, veins popped out on his forehead, and sweat flowed uncontrollably. He raised his head and glanced at Ying Xuan contemptuously.
"If I don't help them, why should I help you?"
Ying Xuan frowned, did the people of old Chu hate Qin so much?
But then the man broke down and asked.
"For several months, I thought everyone in Da Qin was dead! Why are you still here?"
"When the people are forced to rebel, the number of heads will be enough for you to take credit for it, right?"
"It turns out that the elite warriors that Da Qin claims to be invincible were created by beating the common people! Ridiculous!"
The man cursed and laughed.
Ying Xuan frowned.
"After the rebellion appeared, Daze Township immediately sent troops, but I didn't expect that so many people rebelled before it could be quelled. What do you mean by this?"
Unexpectedly, when the man heard this, his face twisted in despair and he laughed!
He was so excited that he forgot about the pain in his thigh and scolded Ying Xuan angrily.
"Daze Township? When Daze Township came, the rebels had been wreaking havoc in Jiujiang for who knows how long!"
"How many people have died tragically? Our wives, children, and family members were all captured in Shouchun. If we don't fight to stop your food and grass, our wives and children will die! Why do you think we should help them?"
"Why don't you also try to enter Shouchun? See if you will still be loyal to Daqin after being caught! Hahaha!"
Ying Xuan looked at the man who was extremely mocking, but there was no trace of anger in his heart.
According to what he said, this rebellion did not start after the Nayue people left Xianyang at all!
Preparations had already begun when there was no news from the court.
But how do the secret guards monitor the world?
Did it start when Zuo Wei was controlled and information about the members was leaked?
Ying Xuan had a vague idea in his mind.
He didn't explain anything, he just said to the man calmly.
"Do you have the guts to take a gamble?"
The man looked confused.
"Subject to those inhuman traitors, something will happen to your wife and children sooner or later!"
"Take us into Shouchun City and we'll behead you! Save your wife and children! Do you have the guts?"
These words gave the man a glimmer of hope, and he opened his mouth, but the severe pain from the wound forced him to lower his head and look at the crossbow arrow on his leg.
Ying Xuan raised his head and motioned to the Imperial Army to help him treat his wounds.
At this time, all the pursuing soldiers also came back.
Zhang Han lowered his head and said with some embarrassment.
"They ran too fast! Some got into the reeds, and some jumped directly into the river!"
"I was afraid of being ambushed, so I didn't dare to continue chasing!"
Ying Xuan waved his hand and didn't care.
When the Imperial Guards helped the man treat his wounds, the man seemed to have made up his mind.
"I don't know how to enter Shouchun City either!"
"After successfully blocking your grain truck, we can get proof of the safety of our family from one person!"
Ying Xuan frowned.
"What certificate?"
The man laughed miserably.
"It's just some clothes hairpins and the like!"
Zhang Han frowned and interrupted.
"You can take out these things even if they are gone, so how can you prove it clearly!"
The man asked sadly.
"Otherwise? Apart from praying! What else can we do?"
"This is our last hope, we have to believe it even if we don't believe it!"
Zhang Han was silent. At this moment, he was afraid to look directly into the man's eyes.
Ying Xuan's face became more solemn.
"Then find that person and let him take us into the city!"
The man raised his head and looked at Ying Xuan. He had a businessman-like appearance with an aura of speaking his mind.
The soldiers around him are not comparable to ordinary soldiers, and each one of them is majestic and majestic.
He didn't know who Ying Xuan was, but it was his only hope at this moment.
Because it has been seven days since I last saw my family’s voucher.
He struggled to stand up.
"Once such a messenger dies, all the family members of the people in the area will be executed by the rebels and hung on the tower of Shouchun City!"
He paused.
"I don't know if this decision is right or wrong!"
"But some people haven't been able to see proof that their family members are alive for more than a month!"
He raised his head and looked at Ying Xuan.
"Can I trust you?"
He didn't mention Da Qin again this time, Ying Xuan replied expressionlessly.
"you will see!"
The man clenched his fists, turned around and led everyone towards the northwest.
Zhang Han frowned and the captain asked.
"This is the opposite of the road in Anfeng County!"
Ying Xuan narrowed his eyes and said only one sentence!
"We are here to suppress the rebellion. Even if we fail, we can leave!"
"But he only has this one chance!"
The man walked in front, and Ying Xuan and the others followed from a distance, seemingly not afraid of him escaping.
After marching for several miles, everyone arrived at the northwest corner of Anfeng Pond.
There are reeds several meters high everywhere here. They rustle when the wind blows, but if you get in, you can't make any noise at all.
As the man whistled, a large number of people emerged from the reeds.
"Chang Lin, you escaped too! As expected of a brat, I thought you were going to die!"
"This time we encountered a serious problem! I don't know if they went to collect food, but after a second glance, we lost seven or eight people. If they really came back to collect food! We can't stop them!"
"It's better to learn from last time and let the messenger contact more other teams!"
The few people who came out were very anxious, but they all believed in Chang Lin. He had been the backbone of these people since his family was captured. People in other areas were almost killed and injured after being intercepted once.
Under the leadership of Chang Lin, they were able to survive several times and get family certificates.
At this time, a young man turned his head and glanced aside, but his body suddenly froze.
The pond water was sparkling, and the reflected moonlight reflected the cold armor of the Forbidden Army.
With an exclamation, everyone panicked instantly. They looked at Chang Lin in disbelief. They never thought that he would betray!
They turned around and were about to run away, but Chang Lin hurriedly stopped them.
"So what if you escape? Are you hoping that those beasts will send you family vouchers next time?"
"When will this continue! Sooner or later, we will be like everyone else and will never get a voucher again! We can only see the bodies of our family members on the wall!"
His words stopped the hesitant crowd.
"Now is the only chance! If we don't seize it, we won't end up well!"
They turned around slowly and looked at Ying Xuan and others timidly.
Chang Lin saw their hesitation and turned around to question Ying Xuan.
"I just want to ask, are we still considered citizens of Great Qin?"
Ying Xuan looked very cold and did not avoid it at all.
"All within the territory of Da Qin are my subjects! Foreigners dare to invade! I will fight to the death until the whole clan is destroyed!"
