Chapter 577: The Deposed Princess Strikes Back at the Female General 24
At night, the camp was brightly lit.
Captain Zhou led his troops to capture the Wujin people in Changfeng Street, but the group learned the news in advance and escaped. Captain Zhou chased them all the way, and suddenly many masked men appeared in the inner city and started setting fires everywhere.
Captain Zhou put the safety of the people first, so he arrested the arsonist first and sent someone back to report the news.
Yuwen Yi always went to the battlefield in person. He took his men there without saying a word. The whole city was under martial law, and those people could not escape. If that group of people were targeting him, it would be a good opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop, so that he wouldn't have to look for them everywhere.
Ji Yunhuan lived alone in a tent. There was a kerosene lamp lit in the room and the candlelight flickered. Ji Yunhuan felt uneasy and always felt that something big was going to happen.
Can Yuwen Yi really be killed by just sending a group of assassins and setting a few fires? How did Yuwen Yi die in his previous life? What happened?
Ji Yunhuan paced back and forth in the tent. A gust of cold wind blew, and Wu Jie appeared in the tent like a ghost.
"I knew you were still awake. I caught a few spies who had been lurking in the city for a long time. They took advantage of the chaos to set fire to the city. Their target was indeed Yuwen Yi."
"The old king of Wujin is seriously ill and is said to have only one breath left. The crown prince is now in charge of government affairs. In the cold winter, the people of Wujin are having a hard time and naturally don't want to go to war. The old king has fought with Chen for his entire life and may not be willing to give up. He doesn't have the ability to attack the city, so he wants to kill General Yi to vent his anger."
"It seems to make sense. General Yi is a prince after all. Although he is not favored, his status is there. Killing a prince can really boost people's morale."
Ji Yunhuan was still worried, "Uncle Wu, why don't you follow General Yi? I always feel that things are not that simple."
Wu Jie raised his eyebrows. "When the Duke went to war, the owner of the manor was also so restless. No matter how well prepared she was, she was still worried. That's why she often went to the northern border. Huan'er, you wouldn't..."
Ji Yunhuan glared at Uncle Wu and said, "I'm talking to you about something serious. What are you thinking about?"
Wu Jie was quite relaxed. They had already done their best by coming to report the news. He was a man of the world and did not have much respect for the imperial power. The Emperor ordered to choose another Princess Rui, and Prince Rui did those disgusting things again. He really hated the royal family of Chen.
This time I came to the northern border, apart from investigating whether there was something fishy about the Jiayuguan battle three years ago, the purpose was to protect Ji Yunhuan. Nothing else mattered.
Wu Jie snorted coldly, "I think you are the one who is imagining things! Your uncle doesn't protect you, but instead protects an outsider. Even if we take a step back, whether Yuwen Yi lives or dies has nothing to do with us."
"Relax, he was taught by the Duke. If he had no skills at all, he would have died eight hundred times. We have reminded him, and that is enough."
"Okay, stop imagining. I'll be watching over you. Go to sleep quickly. We have to go to Jiayuguan early tomorrow morning."
Ji Yunhuan was lying on the bed. She didn't know how long it had been. She was half asleep and half awake when the sky and the earth shook. There was a loud bang, which woke her up completely!
Outside, horns sounded, and a large number of troops left the camp with heavy footsteps.
A soldier rushed in and said anxiously, "It's bad! Someone is attacking the city. The general has ordered me to protect Miss Ji's safety. Miss Ji, come with me quickly. I will take you out of the city."
Ji Yunhuan didn't know this soldier. The one who served her tea during the day was another soldier. That soldier was Yuwen Yi's personal soldier in his tent, serving him.
The soldier pulled Ji Yunhuan's arm and tried to run out, but he failed.
A shadow flashed outside the tent, and Ji Yunhuan made an unnoticeable gesture, indicating Uncle Wu not to show up for the time being.
"Where is General Yi? I want to see him."
The soldier was a little impatient. "The general is busy deploying troops to guard Shanhaiguan and has no time to see you. Besides, the general said that you are a weak woman and it would only add to the burden if you go. It is better to leave the city as soon as possible so that the general can rest assured."
It was impossible that Yuwen Yi had said this, but Ji Yunhuan did not point it out and followed the soldier out of the tent.
The soldier was indeed a soldier in the army. He came and went freely in the barracks and was quite familiar with it. Moreover, his mission was to escort the people from the outer city out.
A group of frightened civilians gathered at the gate of the military camp. Soldiers were leading the way in front. Ji Yunhuan was given special care. There were two soldiers following her, and many eyes were staring at her.
The people finally found their backbone, and more and more people from outside the city joined the crowd.
"Why did a fight break out? Was Jiayuguan breached?"
"My son was the messenger. He asked me to go first. He said it was all right. Jiayu Pass was fine. Those people came secretly from the Yixian Peak in the west and did not pass through Jiayu Pass."
"They really don't care about their lives. Why do they have to go to war with Chen Country? The Yixian Peak is full of dangers. If you are not careful, you will fall down and die!"
"Aren't there sentries at the First Line Peak? Why wasn't there an alarm?"
"It's most likely those barbarians killed him. How pitiful! The Wujin Kingdom is so hateful!"
"General Yi will definitely win. I was wondering why the whole city is under martial law today. General Yi must have noticed something. Otherwise, if we attacked the city in the middle of the night, who knows how many people would have died."
Ji Yunhuan finally understood that assassination was not enough to kill Yuwen Yi, but if the Wujin Kingdom attacked the city, Yuwen Yi would definitely not escape. If the city was captured, he would surely die.
When she was little, she once naively asked her father, if Jiayuguan was so difficult to attack, why didn’t the Wujin people just go around it? They were really stupid.
She remembered that her father touched her head and explained to her for a long time with a smile.
It is easy to bypass Jiayuguan, but the Wujin people will face the risk of being attacked from both sides. If they bypass all the cities during the war, it would be equivalent to not taking any city at all, and without supplies, it would be useless even if they rushed to the capital.
The Wujin people must be crazy. They have made such a big fuss just to kill Yuwen Yi. By the time Jiayuguan comes to its senses and defends the First Line Peak, the two armies will join forces and the Wujin people will be surrounded and killed.
The soldiers led the people all the way to the west. Someone asked in confusion, "Sir, this doesn't seem to be the way out of the city. General Yi has built a shelter outside the city. We should hide there."
The soldier beside Ji Yunhuan explained, "There are spies in the city. The general is afraid that the shelter has been exposed, so he moved everyone to another place. Don't worry, most of you are relatives of the military households in the city, and you are our own people. Brothers, following the orders of General Yi, will definitely ensure your safety."
No one doubted anything and they were soon led to a wide corridor. Candles were burning on the walls on both sides. It was clean inside and not gloomy at all.
After passing through the corridor, the view suddenly opens up to a wide meadow.
