Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 441 Li Jinzhong is unwilling to fail

Li Kaigu glanced at Song Wuji's empty hands, dismounted, cut off Bethune's head, and hung it under Song Wuji's horse's head.

"Thank you, General Li." Song Wuji bowed.

"This should be your credit."

Li Kaigu pulled out his spear and threw it into Song Wuji's hands.

The war ended here. They won completely. The remaining Khitan soldiers were slaughtered by the Yingzhou army, and not a single one was left alive.

Zhao Wenhui, a general who treated foreigners like dogs, would not regard these people as potential subjects of the Great Zhou who could surrender.

Not long after, Zhao Wenhui came with his deputy general Huang Zhen and told Li Kaigu and Song Wuji about the situation here.

Finally, Zhao Wenhui said:

"Based on the current situation, Khitan Li Jinzhong's army still has tens of thousands of troops there. If we pursue them, it will be difficult for us to win with just our men."

"I wonder if General Wang and his men have caught up with us?"

Li Kaigu didn't know the situation on the battlefield in the rear, so he shook his head and said:

"General Zhao, we don't know when the troops in the rear will be able to catch up, but I think it will be soon."

"If we must pursue these enemy forces, we will also be in great danger."

"This time, Li Jinzhong raised an army with a general named Sun Wanrong. If Sun Wanrong comes to support us, I'm afraid we will be in great danger."

Zhao Wenhui, who came through the Turkic route to encircle Li Jinzhong, naturally knew Sun Wanrong.

When marching towards the Turks, he was afraid that something might go wrong with the compass chariot and he might mistakenly enter Khitan territory.

After all, the compass chariot had been tampered with once by Qiu Jing, so whenever Zhao Wenhui started a march, he would take the initiative to check the compass chariot.

Hearing Sun Wanrong's name at this moment, Zhao Wenhui narrowed his eyes unconsciously and said:

"Since you said so, then we can't pursue them. However, after Li Jinzhong and Sun Wanrong join forces, they will definitely raise an army to attack Chongzhou."

"It seems that I need to discuss the next series of arrangements with General Wang."

Li Jinzhong, who led a large army to escape, met Sun Wanrong who came to support him on the way.

Only when the two sides joined forces did Li Jinzhong have a chance to catch his breath.

He was riding on the horse, with a look of relief on his face, as if he had survived a disaster.

"Thank you very much, big brother. If it weren't for you, I would have died without a burial place this time. But, why did you think of rescuing me?"

Sun Wanrong sighed and said helplessly:

"You don't know, ever since I made the plan that day, I have been waiting for my own battle."

"You would have fought on the front line for no more than a month, and I would have met the Yingzhou Army led by Zhao Wenhui in Khitan territory."

"But I had never encountered the Yingzhou army, so I became suspicious and asked my men to pack their bags and rush here day and night."

"Fortunately, I arrived in time and met you, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Li Jinzhong was so moved that tears filled his eyes.

It turns out that family members are reliable.

Those snake spirits from the Great Zhou are full of crap. They clearly said that Wang Xiaojie's entire army would be wiped out, but it turned out like this.

His army of more than one hundred thousand was defeated.

Several generals in the army were also killed.

"Brother, although I was defeated, I am absolutely unwilling to retreat like this."

Li Jinzhong gritted his teeth.

"The governor of Yingzhou, Zhao Wenhui, has bullied the Khitan too much. If I don't kill him, how can I face my ancestors?"

"Please help me, big brother. Let's go to Chongzhou together and kill the governor of Yingzhou, Zhao Wenhui, and the general of the Right Guard, Wang Xiaojie, in Chongzhou!"

Sun Wanrong nodded suddenly and said coldly:

"The Great Zhou has bullied the Khitan too much. We will not easily withdraw our troops this time!"

"Let's go, we'll go directly to Chongzhou!"

The Khitan army, led by Li Jinzhong and Sun Wanrong, returned to Dongxishi Valley.

When they saw the corpses of Khitan soldiers all over the ground, Li Jinzhong and Sun Wanrong were heartbroken.

After leaving Dongxieshi Valley, they continued forward and would reach Chongzhou in a few days. The two were also cautious and sent out many scouts to gather news from all directions.

On the other side, the Youweiwei Army and Yingzhou Army, which were retreating all the way, were not idle either. They sent soldiers to Chongzhou to meet Qiu Jing first.

Qiu Jing, who had been looking forward to it day and night, finally got the first-hand news of the war on the front line.

"What, won?"

"General Zhao joined hands with General Wang to attack from the east and west and killed Li Jinzhong without leaving a single piece of armor?"

Qiu Jing widened her eyes, unable to believe that these words actually came out of Song Wuji's mouth.

Song Wuji, who made great contributions in the battle of Dongxieshi Valley, looked at Qiu Jing who was sitting in the main seat with a calm expression.

"Yes, is this a very strange thing?"

"That's weird. I clearly pointed the compass..."

Qiu Jing knew that she had said the wrong thing accidentally, and immediately looked at Song Wuji below with a vigilant look.

Song Wuji was too lazy to talk nonsense with Qiu Jing and immediately waved his hand.

The soldiers outside filed in, immediately pulled Qiu Jing down, pressed her to the ground and made her kneel down.

"What are you doing? What are you doing, Song Wuji!"

"Just to catch you."

After Song Wuji finished speaking, he applauded.

Among the accompanying soldiers, a soldier who was guarding outside walked in and stared at Qiu Jing who was kneeling on the ground.

"It seems that what the governor of Yingzhou said is correct. This Qiu Jing is indeed a person with big problems."

"Yeah, that's really problematic... How can I be friends with a dog?"

The soldier who walked in gnashed his teeth, wishing he could eat Qiu Jing alive.

This familiar voice made Qiu Jing feel a chill down his spine. He quickly turned around and saw Li Kaigu's rough face.

"Kai Gu..."

"Shut up!" Li Kaigu scolded, "You are not worthy of calling my name, you beast!"

On the way back from the withdrawal, when Zhao Wenhui talked about what Qiu Jing had done, he still didn't believe it and even made excuses for Qiu Jing.

I really didn't expect that this old friend is such a vicious dog that eats people without leaving any bones.

If this beast can do something like placing a magnet under the compass car, there is nothing it can't do.

"General Li, since you have seen clearly what kind of person this old dog is, why don't you let me deal with him?" Song Wuji suggested.

"Okay, I really don't want to see this person, so I'll go out and calm down first." Li Kai looked at Qiu Jing hatefully, turned and left.

Song Wuji sneered, looked down on Qiu Jing who had become a prisoner, and waved his hand casually.

"Send this thief to Wu Garden in the south of the city quickly and hand him over to the officials under Li Fuyin's command to await their decision."

Qiu Jing below showed an expression of disbelief.

What is Wuyuan? That’s where evil spirits exist.

As long as he saw the evil spirit at that time, how many officials in Wu Garden would be able to stop him from escaping?

"Take him away!" Song Wuji sneered.

"Yes!"

Several soldiers came up and carried Qiu Jing out.
