Chapter 2018: Out of Reach

Huang Shao and his men hurried back to Qimu Town. As soon as they arrived at the east city gate, they were immediately surrounded by gatekeepers.

Because he is wanted, of course he must be arrested when he appears.

"Bold!!" Magistrate Huang's confidant reprimanded loudly, and at the same time took out a seal, "Don't be rude, this is Magistrate Zhuoshui's new adopted son! Why don't you get out of here quickly?"

The guard guard was startled. He stepped forward to check the seal and found that it was genuine.

Why did Huang Shao, a poor man in the town, suddenly become the adopted son of Magistrate Huang after being counted?

The Zhuoshui County Magistrate was a very important official to them, and even Colonel Qin had to be obedient.

Now what?

Huang Shao is a wanted criminal and has a lot to do with the theft of silver ingots that just occurred.

Logically speaking, he must be captured and brought to justice.

But inexplicably, he became the adopted son of Zhuoshui County Magistrate, and his status skyrocketed, becoming extremely noble.

Are you tired of arresting the county magistrate's son?

Being in a dilemma, he had no choice but to ask Captain Qin for instructions.

Immediately send someone to report and ask for instructions on what to do.

Not long after, Qin Yuan came over with people.

After checking the seal to make sure it was correct, he had a strange expression.

But the seal is correct, and Huang Shao is indeed the person most trusted by the Zhuoshui County Magistrate. This cannot be false.

He could only step forward and clasp his fists in a bow: "The county magistrate has arrived, and Qin Yuan is far away to welcome him!"

Huang Shao was not in the mood to talk nonsense with him at the moment and asked anxiously: "Where is my brother Jun'er? Let him go quickly! We didn't steal money at all. You can't wrongly accuse a good person!"

"Uh~" Qin Yuan's face looked a little weird when he mentioned Diao Jun, "Well..."

"Captain Qin, the master said," the county magistrate's confidant took a step forward, "This case is a bit strange, and we must not accuse anyone unjustly. When I come over, I will bring Diao Jun there specially and ask the master to try it in person. You can't unjustly accuse a good person. You can’t let a bad person go!”

"Hurry up and release my brother, we didn't steal any money!" Huang Shao said urgently.

"Well..." Qin Yuan replied hesitantly, "You guys are a little late. The person coming from Danyang just now is General Yu Chengyu, General Zhechong. General Yu was ordered to recruit troops, and I asked Qimu Town to gather troops. They sent out 100 soldiers and took all the male prisoners away, including the blind and lame. If this wasn't enough, they would send sixty or seventy more to Danyang... .”

"Where's Jun'er?" Huang Shao's expression changed drastically when he heard this.

"Uh~ Diao Jun is also among them..." Qin Yuan actually breathed a sigh of relief in private.

He didn't expect that Huang Shao would become the adopted son of Zhuoshui County Magistrate and rush back to ask for someone so soon.

With a single order from the Zhuoshui County Magistrate, he could be removed from his position as a school captain.

If Huang Shao saw the miserable state of Diao Jun's buttocks, he would probably report it to the Zhuoshui County Magistrate.

He is now the son of the county magistrate, so it is normal for him to be dismissed from the post of school captain in one sentence.

Fortunately, General Cheng took the person away one step ahead, so he could completely shirk his responsibility and not be implicated.

Want someone? Then go to Danyang to find Yu Cheng!

Even if the magistrate of Zhuoshui County goes there in person,

When meeting General Zhe Chong, he had to kneel down and kowtow obediently, not to mention the adopted son he recognized?

They couldn't find Yu Cheng's important person, and naturally they wouldn't know that Diao Jun was beaten to a pulp under their orders. Speaking of which, it was General Yu who saved him!

"What?! Huang Shao's face changed drastically when he heard this, "Where is that person? "

"I left the west city gate a long time ago and have been gone for a long time!" Qin Yuan replied.

"Drive!!" Huang Shao galloped on his horse anxiously, moving quickly towards the west city gate.

The people sent by County Magistrate Huang took one look at Qin Yuan, and they all jumped on their horses and chased Huang Shao, gradually disappearing in front of Qin Yuan's eyes.

"Huh~" After they left, Qin Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Chase! You can't catch them anyway!"

Then he thought about it, Huang Shao became the adopted son of the county magistrate. Although this was surprising, it didn't seem to have much to do with him.

The most important thing now is to seize the time and recruit the needed soldiers as soon as possible, otherwise General Yu will be blamed, which he will not be able to bear.

As for that Diao Jun, he was taken away by General Yu himself. He may not be able to come back, and he may even soon become cannon fodder and die on the battlefield.

It is estimated that Huang Shao and the others will have to return to the town in despair soon. Who dares to offend General Zhe Chong?

The case of the theft of silver ingots was a little troublesome. Diao Jun was taken away by General Yu, and Huang Shao became the adopted son of Zhuoshui County Magistrate. Neither of them could be investigated.

It seems that it can only end in vain, leaving the person who lost the money to consider himself unlucky.

Return to the battlefield.

Although there was a sudden thunderstorm and bandits and giant bears blocked the road, fortunately, Jia Zhengjin was also prepared and asked Danyang's elite soldiers to stop the bandits and giant bears. He drove with Diao Jun and braved the pouring rain to attack the enemy in the midst of lightning and thunder. Fleeed in the direction of Danyang.

The bandits who were chasing after him on horseback were swept left and right by him with his gun, and they were knocked to the ground one by one, unable to stop them at all.

On the way, I met a prisoner who was fleeing for his life. I grabbed him and threw him into the car and took him away with him.

The lightning, thunder, and violent storm failed to stop him, nor could they delay him in place. He still fled quickly, and soon disappeared without a trace.

The outcome was also decided here. There was a melee between the bandits, Danyang elite soldiers, and the giant bears. In the end, the Danyang elite soldiers won a tragic victory. The bandits were all wiped out, the giant bears were hacked to death with random knives, and only a dozen or so Danyang elite soldiers were left. , ended a hard battle.

During the rainstorm, some of the prisoners who escaped hid in the nearby mountains. A few unlucky ones were caught by Danyang's elite soldiers when they came out because they were looking for a better hiding place or were frightened by the roar of wild beasts in the mountains. So they were escorted on the road in the rain and continued to move towards Danyang to chase Jia Zhengjin who had left long ago.

Huang Shao and his men arrived late. When they appeared on the battlefield, there were only a few prisoners hiding in the bushes and corpses everywhere.

He hurriedly asked what happened. He heard that the battle had ended more than half an hour ago and Diao Jun had been taken away. He was sure that he could not catch up at this moment, so he still wanted to chase him on horseback.

The confidant of the Zhuoshui County Magistrate hurriedly stopped him and advised him not to act impulsively.

Even if he caught up, what would happen? Would he dare to snatch people from General Zhechong? Didn't you see the fate of these bandits, or even the giant bear that jumped out of nowhere? This matter needs to be considered in the long run!

Huang Shao didn't listen at all. He just wanted to go to Danyang to rescue Diao Jun.

Because once Danyang sent troops to attack Bashui, the two countries would go to war and the people would suffer. How could Diao Jun, who was taken away as cannon fodder, come back alive?

The confidant and other subordinates tried hard to persuade Huang Shao, and it took a lot of effort to persuade him. They told him that even if he chased all the way to Danyang, even if he successfully stopped General Zhechong, would he agree to ask him for the person?

That was a big shot that even the magistrate of Zhuoshui County had to kneel down and kowtow.

If you want to get the person back, you can't force it.

The confidant's suggestion was to go back and report to the county magistrate immediately, and then send someone to send some gold and silver treasures to Danyang, which might move General Yu and let him release Diao Jun.

This is the only way now!
