When Jiang Zhuying heard Lei Dongfeng telling the truth, he looked solemn.
Before meeting Lei Dongfeng, Jiang Zhuying had heard of his glorious deeds. Although in the eyes of many officers, Xiao Lei is the type that is difficult to manage, Jiang Zhuying disagreed.
"It's not easy to manage? I, Jiang Zhuying, is not easy to manage. Only capable guys will be difficult to manage."
Even Jiang Zhuying had the idea of asking Lei Dongfeng to his cavalry regiment. When he heard that Lei Dongfeng was jealous of Guan Zhongyun's cousin Guan Ze, his first thought was that he did not believe it.
Because Guan Ze is arrogant in his daily life, he relies on his cousin of the Legion Commander to eat and get some money. If he wasn't afraid that Guan Zhongyun would deal with him, he might have caused something.
Moreover, Guan Ze was extremely vulgar and was a spherical fat man. If Lei Dongfeng would be jealous with such a talentless, no appearance, no virtue, it would be a big deal.
Although he didn't believe it in his heart, Guan Zhongyun had the kindness of knowing Jiang Zhuying and his brotherly feelings. He had never seen Lei Dongfeng with his own eyes before. Therefore, Jiang Zhuying did not defend Xiao Lei's grievances.
Today, the little inside story about the incident was revealed from Lei Dongfeng, which confirmed Jiang Zhuying's suspicion and made this simple soldier feel very heartbroken.
"Brother, I can't explain it to you because of the too detailed, and I don't want to implicate you. Before the truth is confirmed, I can only say that Guan Ze deserves death. I did not go out with the division to suppress bandits because of a minor illness that day. When I went to the military headquarters to cancel the leave, I broke through him and had an affair with the enemy. He was afraid that the matter would be exposed and wanted to kill people to silence him. Instead, I was restrained. This is why I am today." Lei Dongfeng briefly explained the situation that day.
"I never expected that that kid Guan Ze would do such a despicable thing! I am really ashamed of Guan Gong's name..." Jiang Zhuying sighed, but he was completely unquestionable about Lei Dongfeng's words.
"If I am not sure what you said to me today, don't disclose it to others. It's just that the matter is serious and I don't catch him in the actual handle, so I may end up implicating you..." Lei Dongfeng was even more grateful to see Jiang Zhuying believing in him so much, and he reminded him.
"Brother, please feel at ease. After returning to the court, I will clear your grievances, otherwise I will be ashamed of my name." Jiang Zhuying said.
"The housekeeper is very powerful in the military, and there is no evidence of this matter at present. I am afraid that the charge of killing the chief is true..." Lei Dongfeng sighed.
"Hmph, he is a little Guan Ze who is a foe, and he is still alive, but he is not in my eyes..." Jiang Zhuying didn't explain, patted Lei Dongfeng on the shoulder and continued to move forward.
As the cavalry was lost at the beginning of the city guarding, everyone could only walk. After the fierce battle at the city gate just now, almost all of the soldiers under Jiang Zhuying were injured and were in a difficult situation. The more than 40 people under Lei Dongfeng were very energetic.
So, these 40 people became the main force on the road, exploring the way forward and harboring the team behind.
Fortunately, everyone could walk. After rushing out of the south gate, they buried their heads forward, not taking the mainland highway. They only picked out areas with lush wild grass and trees, carefully avoided a few secret whistles, and finally arrived at a station more than fifty miles southeast of Longcheng before the sky officially lights.
At that time, Jiang Zhuying and others were all cavalrymen. Except for a dozen people who lost their horses in the melee, nearly a hundred people had horses. However, the prisoners who escaped from prison, Lei Dongfeng and others were different. Except for four or five horses in the prison, more than 40 people had no mounts.
Therefore, along the way, many Han soldiers were mostly one horse and their speed was greatly reduced.
At this time, the sky was white, and the dark clouds were not light. The air became more humid and stuffy. After rushing all the way, everyone was already wet. Although they were a little tired, they tried their best to hold their breath and lurked in the grass dozens of meters away from the station.
Seeing that the station in the distance was surrounded by a wall that was nearly meter high, Lei Dongfeng and others approached from behind, so they could not see the situation inside.
"This is the closest station to Longcheng. I don't know if it has been occupied by the Western coalition." Jiang Zhuying said to Lei Dongfeng.
"Brother Lei, why don't you go around? What do you have to go to this Bird Station?" Li Long was the most anxious and asked.
"We are in a hurry to go out of the city. There is no food or grass, and there is no horse. If we walk like this, we will be hungry and powerless even if we are lucky enough to be caught by the enemy. Now the brothers' physical strength has reached their limit, so we must get some horses and food and weed out at this inn." Lei Dongfeng replied.
"That's right, what my brother said is that this inn is the closest supply point to us. It will take two hundred miles to go further before the next inn." Jiang Zhuying nodded.
"Jing Zhan, take a few brothers to explore the road..." Lei Dongfeng ordered.
Under Lei Dongfeng's order, everyone acted according to their words and did not object.
It turned out that when he was on the way, Jiang Zhuying said to everyone: "My brother, Dongfeng, has outstanding strategies, so he can command the coming and going of this team. In the future, his words represent my orders and everyone should not disobey."
Jiang Zhuying has a high prestige in the Potian Legion, and no one dares to refute it.
Through Lei Dongfeng's introduction, Jiang Zhuying knew the specialties of the more than 40 people who escaped from the Longcheng Military Prison.
In accordance with Lei Dongfeng's suggestion, their positions were assigned according to their specialties.
"Be careful when doing things, do what you can do, and do what you can't do." Lei Dongfeng reminded, and a trace of emotion flashed in Jing Zhan's eyes when he heard this.
Jing Zhan selected five or six skilled Han soldiers, and the group carefully touched the post station.
The inn was built next to the forks next to the mainland highway, but Lei Dongfeng and others walked through the grass behind them, so they could not see the situation in front of the main entrance of the inn.
However, the mainland roads were very quiet at this moment. I thought that the Western coalition forces were still plundering in Longcheng, and there was no time to scatter the cavalry.
When he arrived outside the back wall, Jing Zhan observed for a moment, handed his left hand, took a few steps back, then rushed out quickly, stepped on the wall, and climbed onto the wall with his right hand. With one force, he gently jumped over the wall that was nearly half past the wall, and fell down lightly like a piece of cotton.
Chapter completed!
