Qin Junyu closed his eyes and understood the difficulty.

After all, the army is still the foundation of a country in troubled times. The existence of military prostitutes is to appease soldiers, which is also a kind of humanitarianism.

At present, the prostitutes in the army are all criminals. Logically, we can completely ignore their lives. However, if compulsory requirements are adopted, it is likely to cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers, which is not good for both parties.

Under Chen Qijin, there are six deputy generals and assistants, and he alone cannot be the leader of the entire army.

Qin Junyu knew that Chen Qijin was in trouble, so he waved his hand and asked him to leave.

Chen Qijin responded, nodded, lowered his head and walked out.

Castle Peak.

General Xiao was sitting in the main tent, listening to his subordinates report the secret letter that the spy had just sent. Two deputy generals and three staff officers were also there, sitting upright with serious expressions.

"According to reports from spies, General Xiao Jianting of the Cavalry was spotted in the area between Qingshan City and Liangcheng, but we were unable to contact him. Five days ago, it was confirmed that the General was captured and taken to Liangcheng." After reading the letter, the guard bowed his head and handed it over with both hands.

The guard standing behind General Xiao immediately stepped forward, took the letter and presented it to General Xiao.

General Xiao could no longer hold back and reached out to grab it before the guard handed it to him.

The other five people were delighted to hear the news about Xiao Jianting, but when they learned that he had been taken away by Qin Zehai first, they could no longer sit still.

"General Xiao, I think we should lead our troops directly to rescue General Huoqi from the rebels!" Lin Yong, one of the deputy generals, is as his name suggests, brave but not wise, and only knows how to solve all problems with violence.

If one punch can't solve the problem, then use two punches. If two punches still can't solve the problem, beat the person to death. Dead people won't resist anyway.

Lin Yong was a strong man with broad shoulders and a thick waist. He stood up with his hands on his hips, rising from the ground like a towering mountain.

Another deputy general, Lin Hu, was both brave and resourceful, but he didn't have many strategies either. He stood up, patted Lin Yong on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Brother, calm down first, don't be impulsive. The General of the Cavalry must be rescued, but we have to think long and hard."

The three staff officers had sullen faces and said nothing.

General Xiao, who was sitting in the main seat, finished reading the letter. His hand shook and the paper fell to the table. His thoughts drifted away.

"Staff Officer Chen, what do you think we should do?" Chen Yong pointed directly at Staff Officer Chen who was sitting in the middle. The latter was startled by his rough and loud voice and his face turned pale, but not entirely out of fear.

Staff Officer Chen sighed meaningfully and said nothing.

Chen Yong's anger grew. He walked up to Staff Officer Zhou and shouted, "Staff Officer Zhou, you speak!"

Staff Officer Zhou played deaf and dumb.

"Staff Officer Yang!"

All three staff officers were called upon, but no one could give Chen Yong the answer he wanted.

Chen Yongqi's face turned red, and his entire skin color turned a shade redder.

"Every time something happens, you three are like mutes! Either you tell half and keep the other half, or you keep silent! It makes me so mad!" Chen Yong walked back to his seat with heavy steps, and Chen Hu signaled him to shut up with his eyes.

The atmosphere in the tent was heavy and everyone had different thoughts.

The three staff officers and General Xiao exchanged glances and understood each other's meaning.

The task assigned to them by the emperor was to lurk in Qingshan City and catch them off guard when the Northern Wei army broke into the city. Now the Northern Wei side has not made any move. If they send troops to rescue people, they will definitely expose themselves. By then, Qin Zehai will be on guard and the prince's plan will be disrupted. There are too many variables, which is not a good thing.

Therefore, Xiao Jianting could not be rescued, at least they could not send troops to rescue him.

Staff Officer Yang spoke up, "It's not good news that the General of the Cavalry has fallen into the hands of the rebels."

Staff Officer Zhou continued: "The General of the Cavalry is a threat to the Northern Wei, and also a constraint on Qin Zehai. He will not miss such a good opportunity."

Staff Officer Zhou glanced around at his colleagues. They had followed General Xiao since the battle against Nanchu. Naturally, they had watched the three siblings of the Xiao family grow up. Their friendship was incomparable to anyone else. How could they have the heart to watch Xiao Jianting in danger of his life without rescuing him?

Chen Hu and Chen Yong are like brothers to Xiao Jianting, so they are so anxious to save people.

Chen Yong guessed what they meant when he heard them say that. He punched the table and knocked over the wine glass. He yelled, "What do you mean? You're just not going to save Xiao Da!"

They privately called Xiao Jianting and Xiao Helin Xiao Da and Xiao Er, and Xiao Yunzheng the little sister.

The name "Xiao Da" has not been heard since the Xiao family returned to Beijing. General Xiao was a little dazed when he heard it.

During the ten years I was stationed at the border of Southern Chu, life was hard but happy. Since returning to Beijing, troubles have come one after another, and now something like this has happened...

The three staff officers lowered their heads silently. Given the current situation, as staff officers, they did not support rescuing people.

Chen Hu stood up again: "I'll take people to rescue them!"

General Xiao, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke, "Chen Hu! Sit down!"

Chen Hu's arrogance instantly died down, and he sat down dejectedly. Chen Yong didn't dare to say anything more after his brother was scolded.

"No one is allowed to mention this matter again." General Xiao looked grim and walked out in front of the five people.

The Chen Hu brothers were unwilling but had no choice but to leave with their fists clenched.

-

Liangcheng.

In the dark and damp dungeon, several rats crawled through the haystack, and a ragged man lay unconscious on the hay.

Two people walked into the cell, one stepped forward to open the iron lock, and the other frowned in disgust.

Qin Zehai looked back at Liu Luyan and winked inside, "Wake him up."

Liu Luyan naturally knew who was imprisoned inside. After hesitating for a moment, he went to the torture room next door and fetched a bucket of water. He poured the water down, and Xiao Jianting choked on the water and woke up. His eyes were confused, and he looked around, as if he realized that he was in a cell somewhere.

Liu Luyan couldn't bear it and retreated behind Qin Zehai.

Xiao Jianting had his back to them. Behind him, he heard the sound of someone stepping on hay. He supported himself with his hands and sat up, recalling what happened before he fainted.

At that time, he led three hundred subordinates with him, and wanted to fight desperately with the Northern Wei people, at least to live up to his title of "General of Cavalry". However, during the bloody fight, his leg was injured. A hundred men protected him and fought their way out, fleeing all the way south, thinking of asking for help from the nearest city. Unexpectedly, the Northern Wei people pursued him relentlessly and sent three thousand people to capture him, and almost killed him several times.

He fled in a panic to the vicinity of Qingshan City. He didn't even know where the Northern Wei Dynasty had reached. Due to his inconvenient legs and feet, he could only hide outside the city. He didn't expect to wake up in this dungeon.

He looked at his leg and saw that the white bandage had been soaked by blood and turned dark red.

The big hole on my calf seems to be inflamed...

Xiao Jianting turned his head and unexpectedly saw Qin Zehai and Liu Luyan.
