The reason the Yanbei Army brought out the hunting dogs was naturally so that they could help him find them.
In the mountain forest, hunting dogs were more useful than people.
In the Yanbei Army, dogs were their companions, and in fact, their treatment in the army was even better than that of ordinary soldiers.
An elite soldier and a close quarter soldier? Wasn't it just a bamboo stick piercing his butt? How much pain, as for tears and snot?
"Go away, go away. Stay away from us. " Yanbei Army smiled until her face turned red, but when the Imperial Guards saw the drooling dogs in front of them, they were so scared that they didn't dare move, afraid that they would be bitten by the dogs.
"Don't worry, Little Black won't bite." When Yanbei Army saw that her comrade had been ignored by the Imperial Guard, her face immediately turned cold. She patted the big wolfdog's head to comfort it, and then coldly said: "Block your mouth, bring everyone back."
He had originally wanted to help them remove the bamboo pieces from their butts, but now?
Hmph, to dare to despise his Little Black, he did not care if these mediocre imperial soldiers lived or died.
The six of them were captured. There were only three Imperial Guards left in the forest, and one of them was the leader of the Imperial Guards.
At this moment, it could be said that the scales of victory had fallen on Yanbei Army, but Yanbei Army was not arrogant and proud. Instead, they were more cautious and meticulous.
Countless combat experience had taught them that turning the tables at the last moment was not a rare occurrence. It was not as if they had never seen such a last-minute comeback.
Until the very last moment, no one was able to determine the outcome of the battle. Moreover, the more carefully one looked at the outcome, the more one would want to be turned upside down by someone.
There were only three people left, but six hundred Yanbei Army s had entered the forest to search for them. Their goal was very simple, it wasn't to stop them from passing through the forest, but to find the people they needed and control them.
Outside the mine, Xiao Jiu'an had finished arranging the trees, and turned back. Seeing how the little soldier was constantly bringing out the rocks, Xiao Jiu'an felt much better.
No matter what, making progress on this side was a good thing. As long as they could break through the rock tonight, they had a chance of winning.
"Da Da Da …" A little soldier rode his horse and came out from the forest. He ran over and kneeled in front of Xiao Jiu'an and said, "My prince, the commander of the Imperial Guards has disappeared."
They searched in the forest for two hours without missing a single spot. They found the remaining two people, but only the commander of the Imperial Guards was gone.
Xiao Jiu'an did not reply immediately. Instead, she said in a low voice: "Send people to set up an ambush while we're in the city. No one is allowed to enter the city."
If he wasn't in the forest, then it was impossible for the leader of the Imperial Guards to enter the mine without alerting anyone. There was only one possibility, and that was that he had run away.
Noticing that something was wrong, he ran out of the forest and returned to the capital.
This move was extremely clever and effective, but the prerequisite was that he was able to escape.
"Yes, Your Highness." When the little soldier heard, his eyes suddenly lit up. Without stopping, he turned and ran off to pass Xiao Jiu'an's orders.
Xiao Jiu'an stood in her original position for a moment, then turned and walked back to the small hut.
He believed in the Yanbei Army's strength, but he had to prepare for it with both hands, so as to not let things get out of hand when they were in danger.
Ji Yunkai was currently resting in the room. The reason Xiao Jiu'an had come over this time was naturally to look for him.
Ji Yunkai was currently resting on the bed, and without saying a word, he pushed open the door and said loudly: "Go, return to the city."
Ji Yunkai was still half asleep when she suddenly heard Xiao Jiu'an's voice. She was shocked and almost fell down from the bed.
"You … It was clearly you who scared me. " Ji Yunkai was still in a panicked state when he heard Xiao Jiu'an despising her and immediately became angry.
Xiao Jiu'an, that idiot, if he did not scold her, would she die?
"Hmph." Xiao Jiu'an let out a cold snort, released Ji Yunkai, took a step back and pulled a distance: "Go back."
"Go back now?" Although Ji Yunkai did not know the exact time, looking at the sky outside, he knew that it was getting late.
Did he really want to return to the city in the middle of the night?
"Go and make a batch of earth explosives. This King wants them tomorrow morning." After Xiao Jiu'an finished explaining her purpose for coming here, Ji Yunkai, after hearing what she had said, laughed coldly, "I was just wondering why you would send me back so kindheartedly. So you actually have a request for me."
This man was truly someone who valued benefits more than anything else.
"Beg? No, this king never begs anyone. Ji Yunkai, hurry up. " Xiao Jiu'an snorted disdainfully, her cold and proud look could anger a person to death.
"Never beg? Your Highness, don't be too sure about your words. Your life is very long, I will watch. " A person living their entire life, how could they possibly continue begging forever? She was waiting for Xiao Jiu'an to be slapped on the face.
"A lifetime?" Xiao Jiu'an chewed on them a little, the corners of her lips raised slightly.
It was obvious that Xiao Jiu'an's focus was different from Ji Yunkai's.
He had to admit that the word "for life" pleased him, and he was in a good mood.
"Err …" Ji Yunkai paused for a moment. She originally did not have any other intentions, but when Xiao Jiu'an said these three words, he felt that something was amiss. Xiao Jiu'an had clearly misunderstood her, but how was she going to explain this?
