After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 1205 Stay as a hostage
Upon hearing Qin Xiaomi's words, Fan Qianhu and the other soldiers and civilians were all shocked: "The enemy is trying to kidnap General Liang, and there are enemy troops lurking near our capital city!"

"Get Gu Chengyong out here! How did your Commandery conduct its reconnaissance? How could you allow such a large number of enemy troops to hide near the capital city!"

"Dereliction of duty, the defense line is practically non-existent, the enemy has infiltrated without our knowledge! The military affairs in the Northeast Prefecture are a complete mess, causing the various prefectures of the Northeast Prefecture to be riddled with holes by the enemy. Gu Chengyong and others should atone with their lives!"

Qin Ershu, Wen Yang, and other Wei citizens denounced the Commander-in-Chief's Office.

"Shut up! If you dare to slander the Wei army without evidence again, you will be executed on the spot!" Fang Gui shouted angrily.

"You bunch of good-for-nothings who hold positions without doing any work are the ones who should be beheaded!" Uncle Qin cursed until his voice was almost hoarse, but he still couldn't vent his anger.

He then called to Wen Yang, "Go! Drag Fang Gui out. If we don't give this bastard a good beating, we'll be letting down the defense line that's been riddled with holes by the enemy!"

"Brothers, go! Drag Fang Gui out!" That's what Commander Fan shouted.

As soon as he shouted that, the situation got out of control. Fang Gui hurriedly jumped off the platform and ran towards Commander Su: "Commander Su, save me!"

Uncle Qin: "Commander Su—Gu Chengyong's concubine's younger brother is right here! Su, you better get out here right now and give us an explanation, or when General Liang returns, he will definitely lead us into the city and wipe out your entire Gu Chengyong lineage!"

He then pointed at Zeng Tongzhi and Dai Qianhu and said, "You two lackeys, if you don't want to take all the blame, go and stop Su's concubine brother, drag him to the front of the barricade and negotiate with us, otherwise don't blame us for accusing you of treason!"

Su's concubine's brother?
What is this name?
Zeng Tongzhi: "...Qin Zhuang, don't make false accusations. I am just a minor official in the prefectural government, a laborer who was pushed out to do the dirty work. I am innocent."

Zeng Tongzhi felt that he was truly wronged.

He was just following orders, how did he become a sinner?
Without saying a word, Commander Dai jumped off the platform and rode off to chase after Commander Su.

Su Qianhu, a good-for-nothing, was no match for Dai Qianhu. He was quickly overtaken by Dai Qianhu and blocked his way.

Commander Su was furious and pointed at Commander Dai, yelling, "You, surnamed Dai, what do you mean? You want to reform? You'll have to cut open your belly first and take out all the benefits you've been eating!"

"And your family, do you want them to die?!"

Commander Dai closed his eyes briefly before finally saying, "I can spare you from being forced to go to the front of the barricade, thus preventing you from being killed by Qin Er and the others. But you must also stop Qin Er and the other Wei people from entering the city to escape the war... The enemy army from the Eastern Desert may be coming. According to General Liang's military order, when the enemy army comes, all epidemic prevention and isolation regulations must be ignored, and all Wei people must be welcomed into the capital city to escape the war."

"Second, you should return to the city immediately and report the military intelligence that there is a large number of enemy troops in Qianyang County to the three major government offices."

"Third, hand over all the tokens of the Commander-in-Chief's Office to me, and I will take full control of the military affairs of the barricades and chevaux-de-frise defenses outside the city."

"You surnamed Dai, you want to take this opportunity to seize military power? You're just a lowly commander, do you even deserve it?!" Commander Su was furious and pointed at Commander Dai, cursing him.

Commander Dai sneered: "If that's the case, then I'll go back to the city with Commander Su, stay with my family, and ignore all the troubles outside the city."

Commander Su: "No way! Don't even think about it!"

Commander Dai laughed: "See, even you know that my suggestion is best for you, so what else do you have to disagree with?"

Beep beep, beep beep!
A series of arrows rang out. Inside the barricade, Liu Baihu and his men moved at the sound; outside the barricade, Wen Yang led the mountain people to charge directly at it.

"The Duke of Yan bestowed this red-tasseled spear upon me; whoever dares to stop me will die!" Qin Xiaomi, carrying the spear, stepped on the shoulders of the mountain people, climbed onto the wooden posts of the chevaux-de-frise, and rushed up the high platform in front of the chevaux-de-frise. Bang bang bang, the spear knocked away the soldiers protecting the platform, and she grabbed Zeng Tongzhi.

boom--!
Throw him into Wei Minqun's group in front of the barricades.

"How dare you, such a daring and rebellious act, kidnap an official of the imperial court!" Zeng Tongzhi was terrified. He never imagined that the Qin family and the mountain people would dare to kidnap him so openly!

Bandits, they're just bandits.

"I am an official appointed by the imperial court." "The court is unlucky to have officials like you!" Qin Xiaomi stood on the high platform, holding up a token, and said to a group of archers, "This token is personally bestowed by the Duke of Yan. Anyone who dares to kill me is killing a meritorious official of the dynasty. Even if you don't die, you will never be promoted in this lifetime!"

"They're all just common soldiers, their lives hanging by a thread. There's no need for them to get involved in the fight between General Liang and Gu Chengyong!"

This is a battle between two great generals, it has nothing to do with you, do you understand?
"My Qin family and the mountain people's army can assure you that when General Liang returns, you will not be punished. You are soldiers of the Great Wei, but you were deceived by Gu Chengyong and helped him to stop the Wei people from entering the city!"

Zeng Tongzhi: "..."

Good heavens, is this the Qin family's daughter?

Not only is she good at fighting, she's also good at talking nonsense!
Upon hearing this, the archers all assumed that General Liang had instructed the Qin family to do this, and hesitated, not daring to fire an arrow to kill her.

Even Zeng Tongzhi suspected... Could it be that General Liang had already seen through Gu Chengyong and wanted to seize the capital city while he was away fighting, so he left the Qin family and the mountain people's army as a backup plan?
With this brain, Liang is no mere brute; he's clearly a strategist!

Therefore, it is a great misfortune for the Great Wei to have civil and military officials like you.

"Yes, General Liang ordered you to do this?" Zeng Tongzhi asked again.

Clang, clang, clang!

Liu Baihu's side has already started fighting with Su Qianhu's troops.

But Su Qianhu's troops were just as useless as Su Qianhu himself; they were no match for Liu Baihu and his Northwest Army.

While Qin Xiaomi had intimidated the archers, Liu Baihu and his men also captured Su Qianhu and held a military dagger to Su Qianhu's neck, saying, "Please step aside, Commander Dai. We must take Su's concubine brother away as a hostage, lest we all die outside the city."

Commander Dai hated them to death and said righteously, "If you have the guts, then charge out. You want me to make way? No way."

You bunch of bastards, if you're going to fake illness to kidnap Su's concubine, at least give me a heads-up, or don't kidnap anyone in front of me!

"Beat the drums, beat the drums to gather the troops, kill them!" Commander Su shouted, a sharp pain shooting through his neck. He could hear the dull thud of a knife piercing his flesh. "Don't kill me, I'll go with you, don't kill me!"

“I heard everything. It was Su’s brother who wanted to come with us, not us who kidnapped him.” Liu Baihu was also a rogue and very good at talking.

Dai Qianhu: "..."

Get out of here! If you dawdle any longer, the other commanders will be here with their troops. How will you get away then?
Liu Baihu instantly understood the true comrades-in-arms he had seen on the battlefield, and immediately ordered: "Since Commander Dai is determined to protect Su Qie'er with his life, then don't blame us for not showing our brotherhood! Charge!"

Nearly a hundred soldiers protected Liu Baihu and charged towards Dai Qianhu. Bang! Bang! Dai Qianhu and his horse were knocked down. His warhorse lay on the ground, neighing.

Commander Dai rolled to the ground unharmed, but remained lying down, because he saw Commanders Gu, Fu, Shao, Hui, and Zhao approaching after hearing the news.

Whoosh! There were at least three thousand soldiers; just looking at them was terrifying.

"Retreat quickly!" Commander Fan hurriedly called to Commander Liu.

Fortunately, Liu Baihu and his men rushed forward quickly, and before the archers could react, they escorted Su Qianhu to the barricades of Dongfu Town.

Qin Xiaomi also crossed the barricades and returned to Uncle Qin's side.

Wen Yang led the mountain people to form a human wall to protect Qin Xiaomi and the others as they retreated.

pity……
