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

Chapter 1238 Beheading Fang Gui
Commander Fu had already removed his armor and weapons, and was only wearing cloth clothes. His hands and feet were also bound, and he walked over.

He was Gu Chengyong's confidant. He received benefits from Gu Chengyong and did certain shady favors for him. However, among these favors, he did not arrange identities for spies or assassins to enter the camp.

Commander Fu only wanted to curry favor with his superiors, to get promoted, and to profit from the situation. He didn't want to die, so he dared not get involved in any treasonous activities.

Gu Chengyong disliked him because of this, so his status was lower than Liu Xiaoyan's. Liu Xiaoyan could guard the main street entrance of Gufu and protect Gu Chengyong at close range, while Fu Qianhu could only guard the barricade camp outside the city.

Gu Qianhu looked in the direction of the sound and was surprised: "So many?"

A long line of dozens of flag bearers and a dozen centurions from the barricade camp outside the city were arrested.

Dai Qianhu was also embarrassed and his face turned red: "Yes, that's all, otherwise I would not have let such a big thing happen in the student camp."

After receiving news from the city, he led his troops to wipe out the forces that Gu Chengyong, Jiao Qianhu, and Su Qianhu had placed in this camp.

But in just one or two hours, unexpectedly, something happened at the student camp!

Dangdang Dangdang!
Dangdang Dangdang!
"Commander-in-Chief Si Jiang has arrived!" The messenger banged a gong, rode into the camp, and shouted.

Upon hearing this, Zeng Tongzhi, Gu Qianhu, and Dai Qianhu were delighted. They looked towards the entrance of the camp in the direction of the city gate and saw torches like dragons, with Jiang Qianshi leading a group of elite soldiers rushing towards them.

"Jiang Qianshi has arrived! Make way immediately!" shouted Gu Qianhu and the others.

Before long, Vice Commissioner Jiang arrived. After scanning the room and seeing that the Qin family was safe and sound, he asked, "There were spies attacking the camp, and the students were also in trouble?!"

His mission was to guard the city gates and fight off the enemy; he truly didn't want to come here. However, upon seeing the fire, he knew something was wrong and that Commander Dai and his men couldn't keep things under control, so he rushed over.

"This case did indeed occur. Fortunately, none of the students died, which is a great relief," said Zeng Tongzhi.

This camp has been riddled with holes by the enemy, what are you so happy about?
Jiang Qianshi wanted to die. He never expected that the barricade camp under the command of Commander Su and Assistant Magistrate Zeng could be in such a state of chaos.

He then looked at Commander Fu and his men, and called to a group of elite soldiers behind him: "The chevaux-de-frise camp will be temporarily taken over by this Vice Commander."

"This is my military order: the entire chevaux-de-frise camp is to be sealed off. No one or nothing may enter or leave without the joint written order of myself, Zeng Tongzhi, Xie Tongzhi, Gu Qianhu, and Dai Qianhu!"

"Gu Qianhu and Qin Lao Qianhu led their troops to guard the original location to protect the students."

"Commander Dai, Commander Shao, and Commander Wu under my command, immediately conduct a full-scale search and annihilation operation in the camp. Eliminate all enemies before dawn."

"I request that Prefect Zeng, Prefect Xie, and the military clerks thoroughly review the household registration and identity information of all personnel in this camp and identify any individuals with questionable identities!"

Seeing that it was safe here, Xie Tongzhi, who finally dared to show his face, also wanted to die after hearing this... I came here to arrange for Wei Minshan and the others to enter the city, not to clean up the mess for Gu Chengyong and the others.

However, there was nothing we could do; everyone was in this predicament, and those who weren't dead yet had to work!
Jiang Qianshi continued to order: "Immediately conduct a secret investigation of the offender's family members, lest they be a family of spies spanning generations!"

"Those convicted soldiers at the two gates of the chevaux-de-frise camp, if they are not involved in the murder of students or treason, after they have confessed, I will send your names back to the Prince of Ye as soon as possible." Jiang Qianshi looked at Commander Fu and the others: "His Majesty is good at recognizing and using people, and the Prince of Ye is benevolent. Perhaps he can give you a chance to redeem yourselves through meritorious service."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of Commander Fu, a dozen or so centurions, and a large number of flag bearers lit up.

"Jiang Qianshi, I am willing to serve the country and fight to the death with those beasts from the Eastern Desert!" It's no doubt that it was Fang Gui, that bastard, who shouted that.

However, no matter how eloquent his words were, it was useless; his life was over today.

From inside the student camp, Wei Qianhu and Gu Qianhu's subordinates, Xiao Ma Baihu, shouted over here: "Qin Lao Qianhu, Gu Qianhu, we've caught Zhao Hefu and Fang Jiuxiong!"

Zhao Hefu, Fang Jiuxiong, Qian Youlu, Su Xiaoli, Su Xiaonian, and Shi Sizhu—these are the six assassins from the local martial arts school that Yang Zeru mentioned, the ones who tried to kill them. Su Xiaoli and Su Xiaonian have already been subdued by Qin Xiaomi and the Imperial Guards; they are the two who survived the poisoning.

Now that two more people have been captured, only Qian Youlu and Shi Sizhu remain on the run.

"Those whose names were just called, immediately lead your troops to carry out the orders!" Jiang Qianshi said, dismounting and going with Grandpa Qin and Commander Gu to see Zhao Hefu and Fang Jiuxiong.

Both men were struck by several arrows. Fang Jiuxiong was trampled by a warhorse, his legs were broken, his jaw and arms were dislocated, and his poison sac was removed. At this moment, he truly wished for death but could not.

But he was originally a suicide soldier, and even in this state, his gaze towards the crowd still held a sense of exhilaration!

"You've done evil, been crippled, and are still enjoying it. You're definitely the result of meticulous training. But our Wei army is also meticulously trained. I don't believe we can't pry your mouths open." Jiang Qianshi waved his hand, summoning his elite soldiers: "Drag him away, torture him, life or death... If he doesn't confess, there are plenty of accomplices willing to, right, Zhao Hefu?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hefu met Jiang Qianshi's blood-soaked gaze and felt a chill run down his spine.

Jiang Qianshi smiled at him: "It's alright if you don't confess. We still have all these accomplices in our hands; we can still investigate your family and relatives; and we can interrogate the Su brothers, Shi Sizhu, Qian Youlu, and other murderers. Among so many people, there must be some who want to redeem themselves and get a chance to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and earn military merit!"

"Now is wartime, and even those who have committed crimes can kill the enemy to redeem themselves."

This, this, this?
Zhao Hefu was tempted.

His family were powerful and influential families from Jiangnan who kept assassins in a northern village. His family had enjoyed a good life for generations. He had only received some education and training, but he was no match for the assassins who saw blood every day.

Now that he has lost the ability to kill himself, Zhao Hefu is wavering, fearful, and tempted, wanting to fight for himself.

"Ah, ah, umm!" Fang Jiuxiong cried out from the side, but since his jaw had been dislocated, he couldn't speak in standard sentences, so Zhao Hefu couldn't understand him.

"Let him scream? Drag him away and torture him!" Jiang Qianshi was so angry he was about to vomit blood, and was somewhat deranged. He pointed at Zhao Hefu and said, "Take him with you and let him witness the torture."

Witnessing executions instills fear, and in that fear, one spills everything one knows, like beans spilling out.

"Yes!" The soldiers came over and dragged Zhao Hefu and Fang Jiuxiong away.

"Wait, where's Fang Gui? Drag that bastard Fang Gui over here first!" Jiang Qianshi ordered again.

"They're here!" The soldiers escorting Fang Gui quickly brought him over.

"Jiang Qianshi, this humble general knows his mistake. This humble general is willing to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy for the country... I am willing to die on the battlefield!" Fang Gui hurriedly changed his words after seeing the murderous intent in Jiang Qianshi's eyes.

Don't kill me, give me a chance to die on the battlefield.

However, you have no honor of dying on the battlefield!
because……

“Dai Qianhu discovered that you were in charge of a batch of pine oil, and that you took away a batch of pine oil the day before the Jiang family from Qin Guan entered the capital city.”

Where did all that pine resin go?

"How did the fire at the student camp start? It was started by pouring pine resin on it!"

“You’re involved in two major cases, and there’s evidence for both. This is a military camp. At a time like this, do you think you deserve to be killed for violating military law?!” Given Jiang’s position, it would be too easy for him to kill a mere squad leader in the name of military law.

To intimidate the enemy and quell the chaos in the camp, Vice Commander Jiang said, "Men, behead Fang Gui to uphold military law!"
