Chapter 799: Robbery in the Canyon
No one could respond to his words.
Ming Yan and Ming Mei rushed from two directions. They had obviously completed their respective tasks. Xie Jin raised his eyelids and looked down at the convoy slowly entering the canyon.
The leader, Fang Bin, clenched the weapon in his hand as he walked. The soldiers on both sides of the grain and fodder convoy all looked alert and prepared for the battle.
Xie Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, stepped hard on a stone with his toes, and his body fell gracefully.
"Be on guard!" Fang Bin urgently ordered, "Fight!"
However, when everyone looked up, they saw their own master falling from the sky, and in an instant, his slender figure sat neatly on his horse.
Everyone's hearts relaxed, and all guarded faces faded.
Ming Yan and Ming Mei each returned to their horses, fell behind the team, and remained silent.
"Sir." Fang Bin turned his horse's head and walked to Xie Jin's side, "How is the situation?"
Xie Jin said calmly: "It's solved."
Fang Bin frowned: "I don't know who it is..."
"Looting of grain and grass happens from time to time during wartime. It's normal." Xie Jin said indifferently, not thinking that this was something worth making a fuss about. "Now that Dongling is at war with South Vietnam, we can now get our way to transport grain and grass and try to get there halfway." The robbers were either South Vietnamese soldiers in disguise or hired killers. In any case, the mastermind behind it must be South Vietnam.”
Fang Bin nodded: "What you said is absolutely true."
"Cheer up, everyone." Xie Jin ordered, "Continue on your way."
"yes!"
Transporting food and fodder was more important than anything else, and there was no room for mistakes or delays. Xie Jin had no time to interrogate the identities of the ambushing people, so he killed them all and rushed to Shuoshan City without stopping.
The team escorting the grain and fodder was huge, and they walked on the road for a full twenty days. When they arrived at the capital of King Yu, they were warmly received.
"Thank you for your hard work all the way, Sir." King Yu personally led people out of the city to greet him, "General Xuanyuan has just captured Shuoshan City and is currently setting up camp. Why don't Sir Xie and the other officers stay in Yu Country to rest for two days, and then send someone to inquire about Sir information."
Xie Jin did not agree immediately, but said calmly: "What are the trends in South Vietnam?"
King Yu and his son have been back to Yu Country for two months, always paying attention to the battle situation on the front line - sandwiched between two powerful countries, no matter who loses or wins, the outcome of Yu Country has been roughly decided.
However, if South Vietnam wins, it will definitely retaliate against Yu Guo's act of illegally lending the road to Dongling. Therefore, both emotionally and logically, Yu Guo naturally hopes that Dongling will win.
"There is no obvious movement yet." King Yu said, "The general of Shuoshan City was shot in the center by an arrow and fell from the tower to his death. The generals in the city were leaderless and the morale of the army was in chaos. General Xuanyuan took advantage of the situation to attack and half of the generals in the city were killed. , half of them fled, and now they have arrived at Quyang City to meet up. "
Xie Jin's eyebrows moved slightly, and his eyes fell on King Yu: "Didn't South Vietnam send anyone to negotiate terms with the King?"
King Yu's face changed slightly and he did not dare to hide it: "I did send someone here at first..."
"They want you to burn my food and grass?" Xie Jin stated South Vietnam's purpose in one sentence.
King Yu's expression changed again, and then he smiled calmly and said, "Even if they have this plan, I won't go as they wish. Don't worry, sir."
Xie Jin smiled faintly: "Your Majesty, don't be nervous. I know you will definitely not agree to such conditions."
King Yu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly: "Gu will never agree."
"The army has been traveling for many days, and it is indeed a bit hard." Xie Jin said calmly, "In the next two days, we will harass the king."
King Yu nodded repeatedly: "It should be."
