C6 Mutiny
General Guo had already realized that the three generals who were sent out had met with trouble. Since there was no news from either side, he could only brace himself and continue forward.
After more than an hour, the scout that Hu Xiong had sent out all returned to report. After hearing about the situation, Hu Xiong was enraged. Just like that, he hurriedly led his army to the east. This time, their speed was much faster than before.
Wei Yutian was burning with anxiety. Even though he was a crown prince who did not have much knowledge, he still understood why the three people he sent out did not return. He could only shout at the General Guo: "You useless things, the people you sent out won't be able to come back."
It would be strange if General Guo could remain calm at this moment. He was already very annoyed with Wei Yutian, and now that he heard his opponent's complaints, how could he not let out a few words? "You are quite useful. If you continue to annoy me, I won't wait on you. "
Wei Yutian was immediately enraged in his heart. After exiting the palace, the people in front of him no longer held him in any regard.
"The country belongs to laozi, laozi can play however laozi likes. If you don't want to serve, then hurry up and get lost. Even if I die, it's none of your business. "You have to thank your father for taking away our country, or else how could you have the chance to offend our superiors here?" Wei Yutian looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, it was obvious that he was breaking down and falling. Of course, he had always felt that it didn't matter, as long as he wasn't dead yet.
When the generals heard it, they really wanted to emulate General Guo and give Wei Yutian a ruthless slap. Very quickly, a feeling that the mud in their hearts couldn't support the wall appeared. The generals were perplexed as to whether there was any value in protecting such a crown prince.
At this moment, the generals were on the verge of tears. With the sudden appearance of the General Huang, everyone seemed to have seen hope.
"Your Highness, General Guo, we will only take another two hours to get out of this forest. Outside the forest is a large canyon, as long as we jump into the river and climb to the other side, our pursuers will not be able to catch us. " General Huang was out of breath, obviously he was very tired.
Wei Yutian's spirits suddenly perked up, but immediately after, he said worriedly: "What kind of place is the canyon? I can't swim, I'll definitely die if I jump into the river. Aren't you choosing this path to intentionally harm my life? "
No one paid any more attention to Wei Yutian, and immediately acted as if he was nothing but a dog's mouth.
General Guo and the rest finally revealed relaxed smiles. However, the danger had not been removed, and it was still unknown whether the other side of the ravine was safe or not. After all, there was not a single nation in the world that did not wish to capture Wei Yutian.
"There's no time to lose, let's hurry up and set off!" Although General Huang was very tired, he immediately urged everyone.
General Guo nodded his head repeatedly, because the unease in his heart was growing stronger and stronger, as if he would be overtaken if he did not leave soon. The crowd did not stay any longer and quickly moved forward. But Wei Yutian was still a crown prince after all, she was extremely angry, it was not easy for her to reach where she was now. General Guo obviously saw through this, and immediately took off his armor and carried Wei Yutian on his back.
Seeing this, General Huang turned his eyes and said: "I think everyone should take off your armor. Not only will it increase your speed, it will also make it easier to swim when jumping into the river."
Everyone felt that the General Huang's words made sense, so they took off their armor one by one. In order to prevent the enemies from noticing their light escape, he hung all of his armor on top of the tall trees. This way, no matter how many people there were in the team, as long as they did not use the Qing Gong, they would not be discovered. However, their every move was clearly seen by the scout who followed closely behind. Including Wei Yutian, there were still seven people in their group. The sound of them fleeing was relatively loud, so they were unable to discover that someone was following them.
"General Huang, where is your Twin Tiger Whip?"
General Guo observed in detail, with Wei Yutian behind his back, he was still thinking of how he should resist if he met with an enemy. When he realized that he was no longer in possession of the General Huang's weapon, an indescribable feeling of bewilderment arose in his heart, and the unease he felt grew even stronger.
"The two whips are too heavy. I hid him in a stone crevice at the side of the canyon." The General Huang replied.
"Tell me, what is the environment outside the forest, other than the Great Canyon?" General Guo continued to ask, this was a habit of his which was formed after a long period of war. Once one was familiar with the terrain, they would be able to analyze it beforehand and prepare for their next move.
"Under this moonlight, my line of sight is really limited. Still, I looked left and right. Twice it was a grassy plain. " General Huang and General Guo have been comrades-in-arms for more than ten years, so they understood the purpose of the inquiry. Thus, they continued to speak, "Don't worry, we won't be able to hide the army there.
Hearing that, the worry in General Guo's heart receded a little. Even if there really was an enemy behind them, they would not be able to catch up with them while they were running away in their light clothing.
Another half an hour had passed and Hu Xiong was no longer able to catch up with them, unless General Guo and the rest were delayed by them for a long time.
Wei Yutian was tossed around on General Guo's back, causing him to feel extremely uncomfortable. In the past, he rarely walked and sat on palanquins. He was too tired from walking and the palanquin was too heavy for sitting on, and most of them were carried by palace maid s or those sitting on them.
"Could it be that he was carrying someone on his back, because everything This Crown Prince eats will be thrown out."
"Then come down and walk by yourself!" After General Guo finished speaking, he directly placed Wei Yutian on the ground. After carrying it for more than an hour, he was exhausted.
Wei Yutian was a little displeased, but since the other party was not going to carry them, he had no other choice.
"Crown Prince, let me carry you!" General Huang knelt in front of Wei Yutian and carried him on his back.
Since they were running for their lives, it was normal for General Huang to take the initiative to increase his speed while carrying the crown prince on his back.
After about an hour, they finally heard the sound of flowing water from the canyon. Everyone became excited as their faces brimmed with the joy of escaping into the sky. Only General Guo's face was sallow. Although the uneasiness in his heart had been alleviated, it had not been relieved.
"Everyone, why don't we take a rest first? We'll need more strength while we're in the water. I'll go get my weapon first." The General Huang said with concern, he was truly exhausted.
When the General Huang said this, everyone immediately looked like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost and lost all spirit. Everyone was truly tired. The feeling of being chased after was not pleasant for these generals.
The Tiger Fighting Twin Whip had followed the General Huang for more than twenty years, and was a treasure passed down from the ancestors of the General Huang. The first generation master had fought through the rivers and mountains under the Chu Tang's leadership. If the General Huang did not hold this in his hand, he really did not feel safe.
"Finally, I can take a breather. If I can escape and ascend to heaven, the Crown Prince will have to turn over a new leaf." "Although we will still protect you well, the rivers and lakes are dangerous, maybe there will be times when we will be unable to do anything." General Guo was worried for Wei Yutian. Even if he was going to stay by the side of this crown prince, he wouldn't do anything to help him.
Wei Yutian had a face full of arrogance. Since the moment he came into contact with General Guo, he had never seen the other party act this way.
Just as Wei Yutian was about to speak, General Huang took his Tiger Whip and quickly rushed over.
"Everyone, rest well. Let's hurry up and set off!" General Guo stood up and instructed. No one expressed any complaints, and even Wei Yutian pursed his lips, with the exception of a look of displeasure on his face.
Soon, everyone had left the forest. Although it was only illuminated by the blood-red moonlight, it still gave off the feeling that his field of vision had been opened. It was just as General Huang had said, there was no cover within his line of sight, but only the sound of his voice could not be seen.
Without any hesitation, the group hurried towards the sound of flowing water. Their excitement could be heard clearly on their faces.
"Hey!" Why is General Huang gone? " Wei Yutian suddenly asked, obviously everyone was too excited to notice this point. Only a heartless person like Wei Yutian would not be so excited at this moment.
As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding sound of wind rose up and then immediately stopped. In less than three breaths, the sound of orderly and uniform footsteps could be heard. The earth trembled, causing the entire coast of the canyon to crumble.
"Oh no, the General Huang is betraying us!" General Guo immediately reacted.
Just as he finished speaking, from a place where he couldn't even see her came the voice of the General Huang, "Brothers, I was also forced to such an extent. This heartless crown prince was someone who could be killed by anyone. My xanthopanax is a loyal clan, from the founding of the Chu Tang to now, we have done countless of meritorious deeds. But just because of this person who angered both god and men, my xanthopanax was annihilated. Brothers, you are different from me. The merits that you have done for Chu Tang is incomparable to the xanthopanax's. I am impressed by your loyalty, but xanthopanax cannot run out of oil. Brothers, it is not worth dying for this inhumane thing. I advise everyone to give up on the dark. "
The words of the General Huang silenced everyone. They could understand why the other party had made such a decision. However, the remaining loyalty in their hearts was something they did not dare to lose. Otherwise, even if they reached the netherworld, they would not be able to face their ancestors.
Wei Yutian was shocked, he was enraged, someone actually dared to betray him.
"You damned bastard, you actually dared to betray me." If I am to die, even if I become an evil ghost, I will still skin you alive. " Wei Yutian said angrily. In his mind, he was the Crown Prince of Chu Tang, so everyone had to submit to him. However, the situation was different now. No matter how infuriated he was, he could only shout in anger.
"Hahaha ?" Wei Gou, you want to skin me alive? If the people you've harmed could turn into evil spirits, then I'm afraid that you would not have had the chance to speak with me in this place. " General Huang could not help but laugh.
General Guo had not spoken the entire time. He was blaming himself, blaming himself for discovering that General Huang had already betrayed him. Ever since the General Huang had reunited with everyone, they had been urging everyone to move forward. The reason he took the initiative to carry the Crown Prince was obviously to pull everyone into a trap. The reason he allowed everyone to take off their armor was probably to make it easier for everyone to lose their lives. Using the excuse of picking up weapons was probably to send a signal to the enemy that they had entered a trap. The weapon was said to be placed at the edge of the valley, to need to be retrieved even before reaching the valley. This was obviously a problem, but General Guo was not suspicious at all.
"General Huang, I respect your loyalty for hundreds of years, and I even take you as a role model for everyone. However, I didn't expect you to use our trust to lure us into your trap. I was blind and was unable to see through your abnormality, but it is already too late for me to say anything now. If you still have a bit of brotherhood, then come out and fight me to the death. If you want us to renounce loyalty like you, we would absolutely not dare to do it. "
The loyalty General Guo had to protect even if he died, was trampled on so easily by the General Huang that he had once viewed as a role model. How could he not feel resentment in his heart? Right now, he only had one thought, which was to fight the General Huang to the death and sever his former brotherly relationship.
"General Guo, there are several times where I was almost seen through by you. You are a righteous and honorable man, and I, Huang, am indeed worthy of you and my brothers. So, I still have to advise everyone, don't lose your life for the sake of this beast that doesn't care about everyone's lives. " General Huang said guiltily.
Wei Yutian was getting anxious, afraid that these people would betray him and turn into a lonely person, he did not even think about it.
"You guys aren't going to betray me, are you?" With Wei Yutian's personality, even if he wanted to keep these people in front of him, it would be with a questioning tone.
Everyone understood what Wei Yutian was thinking, although they did not like his words, they did not have any intentions of betraying them. They did not reply Wei Yutian, their eyes flickering with a resolute light. They were already prepared to die. However, no matter what, he had to carve a path for the Crown Prince to jump into the river and escape.
"General Huang, our attitude is very clear, so don't waste your breath. You might be able to live, but in the future generations, you should be clear about whether they will judge you as the one who left the roots for the xanthopanax, or whether they will say that you have disgraced the loyalty of the xanthopanax. " He was trying to stall for time, trying to think of a way to win a chance for Wei Yutian out of the ten thousand soldiers in a while.
General Huang was startled, but he did not regret it. Everyone had their own aspirations, it wasn't wrong to preserve the bloodline of the xanthopanax.
"Your bickering is quite lively. However, I don't have time to waste here with you all."
The person who spoke was Great General Tong Shibai. He was a great general of the, a cunning and cunning man who was familiar with the ways of the army, and had the courage of a thousand men.
