Chapter 24

Wu Gen's face was as dark as water, and he was fully clothed. He rode towards the camp on horseback, with Baoxiang and Shui Congyue following closely behind him. Wu Gen didn't stop after the news that Mo Xin had been captured and taken to Mucheng City was reported.

Wu Gen knew very well that with the urinary behavior of Zhao Guoxiang's army, it would be difficult for Mo Xin to come back.

Over the years, Zhao and Daxia have always maintained a delicate balance. Although the two sides have friction from time to time, they always rub each other but never fight, fight but never break, and definitely never completely tear each other apart.

When friction occurs, soldiers will inevitably be captured by the other side. If they are regular soldiers, they can return to the camp by exchanging prisoners. If they are servants, neither side will care too much. Occasionally, they will take one or two servants with them when exchanging regular soldiers.

As an addition.

The final fate of most of the servants was either to be killed or to be enslaved to a lifetime of hard work and death in a foreign land. If anyone had a dispute over the servants, they would inevitably be accused of being ignorant and acting recklessly.

In this world, some people are like dust on the ground, existing out of sight. A breeze blows, and the dust flies past the eyes, but no one pays much attention to it. It is forgotten in the blink of an eye, and in the end it can only be silently annihilated.

in a certain corner.

After Sha Chu left, Wu Gen planned how to rescue Mo Xin. Just as Baoxiang arrived at Huangzhong Ridge, Wu Gen asked him if he would be willing to station the beacon for him for a period of time to prevent Daxia's revenge. Anyway, Zhang Yuan

There is a saying that he can recruit his subordinates without spending any money or food from the Xiang army.

Let Baoxiang stay and guard because his old mother is still alive. If something goes wrong, how will the old man live?

As for Shui Congyue, there is no need to ask. With his temperament, how could he miss the opportunity to fight like this? If he was not allowed to go with him, there is no way Wu Gen would have more holes in his chest.

Unexpectedly, when Baoxiang heard this, he became furious and stabbed Wu Gen's chest heavily with his fingers. The force was so strong that Wu Gen retreated repeatedly after being stabbed, "You, Wu Gen, went to do something righteous to sacrifice your life to save your friends, but you didn't

Put me in an unkind and unjust situation, ruin my reputation, and destroy my moral character. If so, we will sever ties from now on."

Hearing Baoxiang's generous words, Shui Congyue nodded slightly, his eyes showing approval.

"Good. You know a man in trouble, and a horse in mud." Wu Gen was also quite touched. It is said that Baoxiang and he mostly have business dealings, so there is no need for this. "Since the three of us are determined to save people, we still need to plan carefully.

Fan."

The three of them were in the house, carefully deducing the possible risks and countermeasures when going to Mucheng City. At this time, Shui Congyue's advantage of being a noble person was revealed, including details such as how to enter the city, rob the prison, evacuate, and deal with the aftermath.

, careful consideration and unique insights.

"Congyue, it would be a pity if you are not a general." Baoxiang was convinced and gave a thumbs up.

Shui Congyue showed no trace of pride, and choked the two of them half to death with one sentence, "If you two hadn't gone together, I would have gone directly to the execution ground to rob people, so there would be no need for such a huge effort."

The three of them were well prepared and according to the plan, they went to the camp first and asked Wu Gen to find out the specific reason.

While walking on the road, Wu Gen frowned. According to Mo Xin's cunning temperament and the legend of being able to fight in more than fifty battles without falling, how could he suddenly be captured by Daxia. When they arrived at the Xiang Army camp, Wu Gen gave up the water.

Bao and Bao stayed outside the camp and went directly to Zhang Yuan to inquire.

When they arrived at his residence, they saw Sha Chu standing outside the door like a door god. He stretched out his hand to stop Wu Gen and said, "Captain Zhang has important military affairs. He is not in the camp when he is out. Please come back in two days."

Wu Gen was stunned. He would not leave sooner or later, but he had military affairs when he entered the camp.

"Haha." Wu Gen sneered a few times, "Brother Sha, I thought I had served Zhang Tuenzhang for a period of time. Whenever he went out, he needed someone to guard him. Today, he is just like a widow who steals from a traitor. She hides and hides. Isn't she shameless?

I'm Wu Gen. No, today I'm going to be charged with breaking into my boss's tent without permission, and I want to meet him." He said, and he was about to force his way in.

Shachu smiled bitterly and grabbed Wu Gen's hand and squeezed it hard. "Commissioner Zhang is really not in the camp. Please ask Wu Shichang not to make things difficult for our brothers. You can go back to Huangzhong Ridge first. When the commander returns, I will

I will tell you on Pegasus."

"Really not here?"

"Not really."

"Well, that's all. I'll go back and wait for the news. If you deceive me, I won't interrupt you." Wu Liang pushed Shachu away and said fiercely.

After leaving the camp, Wu Gen ran in the direction of Shazhong Ridge. After running a few miles and losing sight of the camp, he took out a note from his hand. When Shachu was pushing against him, he took the opportunity to quietly stuff it into his hand.

It's in your own hands.

I opened the note and saw that there were only three words on it, Yehuling.

After biting his lip a few times, Wu Gen found Baoxiang and Shui Congyue, turned around, and hurried to Yehuling.

Yehuling is a low mountain ridge, ten miles away from the main camp of the Xiang Army. Because it is close to the Daxia Kingdom, few people go there on weekdays. When they arrived at Yehuling, looking at the mountains full of pines and cypresses, Wu Gen

I couldn't help but complain in my heart, where should we go to such huge mountains?

There was no other way, so the three of them had to search all the way along the hillside. At the entrance of a valley, Wu Gen found a shallow stone mark cut on a tree with a knife. He felt happy and urged his horse forward towards the valley.

And go.

After walking zigzag for five hundred steps, in front of a forest, a man and a horse appeared. This man was Zhang Yuan, holding a knife in his arms, closing his eyes and resting against a tree. The horse was leisurely strolling aside.

, gnawing on the new green grass.

Hearing Wu Gen's movements, Zhang Yuan stood up and said, "Your Excellency, please wait a moment while I explain something to Wu Gen."

Wu Gen looked back, Shui Congyue and Baoxiang nodded, turned their horses and walked out.

Seeing the two people's backs disappearing, Wu Gen said: "Why are they so mysterious and hiding here to meet each other?"

Zhang Yuan said helplessly: "I knew you kid wouldn't be able to hold it any longer. When I learned you were in the camp, I asked Sha Chu to guard the door. Tell me what you want from me."

Wu Gen couldn't help but laugh, "My Chief Zhang, you are asking questions knowingly. You must give an explanation as to why Mo Xin was taken away."

"What explanation do you have, and who should I give it to, you? Why? Mo Xin is not under your jurisdiction. Whether he is dead or alive, rescued or abandoned, it is all decided by the big account. Where does it go to you, a person with an empty name?

Don't worry about it." Zhang Yuan was furious. He was a dignified village chief, but he was forced to hide here like a thief.

"Yes, Mo Xin's life and death have nothing to do with me according to the rules of the army. But if we get along with him, we can't just see him die. Presumably Tuen Commander Zhang also feels sorry for him, otherwise he wouldn't have asked me to meet him here.

"Wu Gen said seriously.

"Okay, I'm afraid of you. This Mo Xin was ordered by the military in the big tent to go to Mucheng City to spy on the military situation. But for some reason, maybe the news was leaked, and as soon as he went there, he was arrested by Daxia Kingdom

.

Fortunately, one person escaped by chance, otherwise the army would still be in the dark and not know that he had been caught." Zhang Yuan elaborated while recalling.

"It's not like there were no precedents for doing things carefully in the past, so the army didn't take it too seriously. I also went to Qu Chang to explain, and then I agreed to ask Daxia for Mo Xin's return during the next prisoner exchange. It's just that

, this kind of thing does not happen often. Whether Mo Xin can survive until then depends on his luck.

I know that you usually look helpless, but in fact you attach great importance to friendship. If something happens to Mo Xin, you will definitely try your best to rescue him. However, Wu Gen, let me tell you, the military will not allow rash actions, in case it causes a bigger disaster.

Trouble, this is not something you and I can bear. Even the commander and the school captain may be implicated.

Last time you defended the Barren Tomb Ridge without losing, there was no way the Great Xia Congress would retaliate. In this critical period, it would be a good idea for you to abandon the border and come to the camp, and even break in like a big show. Let me tell you what you are good at. This is not obvious.

Are you leaving your post without permission? If someone deliberately slanders you, I will punish you or not." Zhang Yuan's face was as dark as water, and his words had a hidden meaning of beating.

He reached out and pulled out a square piece of grass from the ground and held it in his mouth. Wu Gen leaned against a tree and said, "That's why Chief Zhang invited me here. In this way, you'd rather ignore it."

clear.

Don't worry, one person will do the work and one person will be responsible. You will never make things difficult for Zhang Tuen Chang. When a person dies, he is gone. If you break the pass, it is lost but it is not impossible to get it back. By the way, there is something in the Tun Chang's words just now. This thoughtful person is

Who is it?" He said and stared at Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan paused for a moment and then said: "The army is also a river and lake, and not all of them are good people. Naturally, there will be some things like dogs and flies. Having said that, Muchang City is a county in Daxia and is heavily guarded. You three can save it."

Man, do you think it's okay?"

"In ancient times, there was a man who rode alone into an army and returned with thousands of horses. I am not allowed to imitate it. Besides, you also know that I am not good at using force, so I will use some small means, which may not have miraculous effects. But, Chief Zhang, you can

Let’s just say this if I call you.” Wu Gen said impatiently.

"Do you really want to go?" Zhang Yuan leaned forward and asked.

"nature."

Zhang Yuan threw half of the jade pendant over and said, "When I arrived at Mucheng City, I looked for a restaurant called Ke Zailai. I found a shopkeeper named Zhu and asked him if he had three rooms today. If he answered that there would only be four rooms in the future,

Just meet the code, and he can help the three of you in the city."

Wu Gen took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully, "I would like to ask the village chief to give me some time regarding the matter at Huangzhong Ridge. Thank you very much."

"Thank you, be careful. When you come back, I will be punished with you." Zhang Yuan sighed quietly and waved his hand.

"Don't worry, you and I didn't meet today. If the commander blames me, he blames me for acting without permission. Let's go." After saying that, Wu Gen got up from the ground and led his horse towards the outside of the valley.

Before leaving the valley, a voice came from behind, "Return safely. Live well. Death can't change anything, but as long as you live, you can change everything."

Wu Gen turned his head, and Zhang Yuan was standing alone under the tree, deliberately turning his head not to look at him. After getting along for a long time, it would be impossible to say that he didn't have some feelings.

"I know, I'm going to be the leader of the village. Wait for me to come back and have a drink." Wu Gen's laughter continued to echo in the valley.

After leaving the valley entrance and finding Baoxiang and Shui Congyue waiting outside, Wu Gen recounted the news that Zhang Yuan had told him.

Shui Congyue frowned after hearing this and hesitated to speak. In the end, he still didn't say anything.

Baoxiang became more energetic when he heard this, "Okay, since there are people in the city to help, it's good to be kind. However, how to enter the city is a problem. I have been to Mucheng City once, and I was kicked out before I entered the city. If

There is no proper way, and we may not even be able to enter the city."

Wu Gen scratched his head and said, "We are not familiar with Mucheng City, so let's take a step at a time to see what's going on. The top priority is to get to Muchong City first, observe carefully, and then find a way to enter the city."

Seeing that it was still early, the three of them got on their horses and hurried towards Mucheng City.

Going to Mucheng City is not without obstacles. How can a city in a county be allowed to drive straight in front of the city without any obstacles? There are many major camps set up around it, just like the Zhao Guoxiang army.
