Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Everyone, be alert! If you see a pregnant woman, be sure to check her carefully!"

Zhang Qing signaled to all the scouts to be alert. Joking aside, if they really let that female general escape, Zhang Qing would probably have to go to the military law department.

Thinking of Pei Xuan's emotionless face, Zhang Qing shuddered. You can't mess with Pei Xuan!

"Strange, where did the person go?"

Guan Sheng himself was also in the pursuit. He found it incredible that he had only been in the alley for a short while and had come out quickly. Even if he got out of the car halfway, how could there be no trace at all?

If only Shi Qian and his brother were here.

Guan Sheng missed Shi Qian again. He now admired Shi Qian even more. Although Shi Qian was a thief, he had done an excellent job since taking charge of intelligence work in Dayi.

If he were here now, these alleys in Xijing wouldn't be a problem.

"Brother Guan!"

Suo Chao led his men in a charge, and Guan Sheng looked up at his deputy.

"No."

Suo Chao shook his head, indicating that he hadn't found anyone either.

"What should we do? Should we signal the army to enter the houses and search for people?"

"No."

Guan Sheng shook his head. The Dayi Army did not break into civilian houses to search for people; this was absolutely impossible under military law.

"Let's continue searching and then seize the other city gates. That female general knows the terrain better than we do, and she'll definitely escape through one of the other gates that we haven't taken yet."

"Then I'll go inform them right away!"

Suo Chao accepted the order and went to inform the other brothers, while Guan Sheng continued to think, reflecting on each fragment from earlier and recalling where he had overlooked something.

What if, what if that female general had gotten off the bus right from the start, instead of running for a long time?

This thought suddenly flashed into Guan Sheng's mind!

Although the idea is absurd, it seems to be one of the most plausible explanations for the current situation.

"Did you see anyone get off the bus when you were at the high point?"

Guan Sheng questioned the scout who had fired the sentry arrow earlier.

"Just now... I don't think so."

After hearing the question, the scouts thought for a moment and then gave a somewhat ambiguous answer.

"Shouldn't it be? So does it exist, or doesn't it?"

Guan Sheng was somewhat dissatisfied with the scouts' answers. "What are you planning to do with this kind of intelligence? Split me in two and then pursue me in two separate groups?"

"……No!"

The scouts thought for a moment, then gritted their teeth and gave an answer: they genuinely hadn't noticed anyone getting out of the carriage. Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that they hadn't noticed because it was dark and the distance was a bit far.

"Come on! Follow me back to where we started!"

Upon realizing this, Guan Sheng immediately turned around and led his men towards the direction of Qiong Yaona Yan Mansion.

“Princess, we can’t go to the East Gate. The enemy has already occupied it, and the West Gate, which the carriage just drove towards, is probably also full of enemies now.”

In an alley near the residence of Qiongyao Nayan, Dalibo, disguised as a homeless commoner, and her guards were carefully observing their surroundings.

A guard brought the latest intelligence: the East Gate, the city gate that Yang Zhi and his men had just captured, is now full of people!

"We need to quickly choose another direction to leave. I have a feeling they'll be back soon."

Dalibo's expression was cold and stern. She was indeed intelligent. In that situation, she was able to decisively get off the carriage shortly after it drove away and hide with her men, which caught the pursuers off guard.

When Guan Sheng was pursuing them, he passed by the entrance to the alley where she was hiding. They were hiding there and watched Guan Sheng's army pass by.

Unfortunately, she hadn't anticipated that the East Gate would be so completely lost. She had hoped that there would be troops there to help her escape, but now it seemed that she could only retreat to the other two sides.

"Go to the North Gate."

Dalibo quickly made a decision. She signaled everyone to head north, as the situation in the city was still quite chaotic, and things should be slightly better in the north.

However, what she never expected was that Zhang Qing was patrolling near the North Gate with Ma Qijun at that moment.

"Ok?"

Although unfamiliar with the terrain, Zhang Qing instinctively felt something was wrong when passing the entrance of an alley. He reined in his horse and stared intently at the alley entrance, as if trying to see through the darkness inside.

"General, what's wrong?"

"Something's wrong."

Zhang Qing had already touched his stone with one hand. He had a feeling that there was someone in the alley in front of him!

"Light the torches!"

Upon hearing Zhang Qing's words, the soldiers around him immediately lit all the torches and held them up towards the alley.

Unfortunately, the alley was quite long, so the firelight couldn't shine completely inside.

"Whoosh!"

Zhang Qing waved his hand forcefully from his horse, and a pebble flew through the air and into the alley like lightning!

"Boom!"

"Aye!"

The sound of something crashing came from the alley, along with someone's scream! There even sounded like footsteps!

"on!"

Zhang Qing waved his hand, and his soldiers rushed into the alley with torches in hand. This time they could see clearly that there was a person lying in the alley with a broken forehead, and not far away, someone seemed to be running in another direction!

"Why are you running? Chase them!"

Ma Qi's soldiers were immediately excited. Could it be that the female general who was being hunted throughout the city was about to be captured by them?

"who are you?!"

Surrounded by soldiers, Zhang Qing arrived at the man who had fallen to the ground. The man was dressed in tattered clothes and looked a bit like a beggar, but Zhang Qing didn't believe it because beggars are usually thin and bony. Although the man's clothes were old and big, it was clear that he was very strong!

“I, I, I am just an ordinary citizen.”

The man who fell to the ground covered his forehead with his hand. Zhang Qing's stone had been very powerful, and now half of his face was covered in blood.

"The common people? They're not behaving properly! Suppress them!"

In the firelight, Zhang Qing saw that the man's wrists were very thick and strong. After controlling him, he pried open his fingers, and the calluses on his fingers and the base of his thumb were clearly visible.

"When did the archers of the Liao people become beggars?"

Zhang Qing sneered, then signaled his men to continue the chase. This person was definitely a soldier, and those who escaped must be that female general!

Since you've run into me, I'm not one to show mercy!

In the face of fame and fortune, all beauty is illusory!

"Princess! Run! Run!"

Although the Liao soldiers tried to struggle, their heads were spinning from the cut on their foreheads, and they were unable to get up. They could only shout at the front in Khitan.

If he hadn't shouted, it would have been fine, but now that he had, Zhang Qing was even more certain that those people in front were the ones Guan Sheng was looking for!

"Princess! Run! We'll stop him! The terrain here is narrow; they can't get through!"

Dalibo doesn't have many guards left, but they are now willing to risk their lives for him!

"Princess! You must live!"

"Princess! The bloodline of the Liao Dynasty rests entirely on your shoulders!"

The guards stayed behind to cover their retreat, leaving Dalibo to continue her escape alone. Protecting her belly, she moved through the alleys at the fastest speed she could muster, trying to shake off her pursuers.

When she saw an exit ahead, in her haste, she didn't observe carefully and rushed out!

This charge sent them right into a main street!

Meanwhile, on the other side of the street, Guan Sheng was leading his men on horseback!

Dalibo and Guan Sheng, one protecting his belly and the other riding his warhorse, their gazes pierced through the shackles of the night, sparking a colliding spark in the air!

"Enemy general spotted!"

Guan Sheng's face lit up with joy. "Finally found you!" he exclaimed. He then pointed his Green Dragon Crescent Blade and shouted:

"Chase after her! Don't let her get away again!"
