When they were already more than ten miles away from Yizhou city,
Ruan Qixiang ordered his troops to rest on the spot.
As Li Yun was also preparing to find a place to rest,
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xin came looking for him with about ten soldiers.
Li Yun was no match for Zhao Xin.
Caught off guard,
In the blink of an eye,
He was then taken into custody by Zhao Xin and his soldiers!
"Who exactly are you? I need to see Lord Ruan!"
Li Yun struggled and shouted angrily.
"To see Lord Ruan?"
Zhao Xin snorted coldly.
"Once you've confessed everything, I'll take you to see the magistrate!"
"W-what's the matter?"
Li Yun suddenly felt a little guilty.
"Heh, you still have the nerve to ask what it is?"
Zhao Xin, with a stern face, spoke deceitfully.
"Li Yun, the magistrate is already well aware of your collusion with Liangshan. Why don't you confess the truth?"
"This... I'm innocent! What Liangshan? I don't know anything about it!"
Although Li Yun had something to hide.
But he's a seasoned veteran after all.
How could they possibly fall for Zhao Xin's trick?
He immediately shook his head and denied it.
"Hmph, still dare to be stubborn!"
Zhao Xin coldly ordered the soldiers,
"Give our Captain Li a hundred lashes first, so he can think things through!"
"Who exactly are you? Why are you framing me?"
Blue-Eyed Tiger roared,
He was pinned to the ground by two soldiers.
Then a military baton as thick as an arm,
It hit Li Yun directly in the lower back!
"Slap! Slap! Slap..."
One hundred strokes of the military rod
Li Yun's back was beaten until it was a bloody mess.
His face was deathly pale.
The beads of sweat on his forehead,
It kept dripping onto the ground!
"Well, Chief Li, have you thought it through?"
Zhao Xin said with a forced smile.
"Lord Ruan has already said that, considering your past acquaintance, he will grant you permission to reveal all the Liangshan spies in Yizhou Prefecture,"
"Lord Ruan will not hold you accountable!"
"do you understand?"
“I’ll say it again, I don’t know any Liangshan spies,”
Li Yun gritted his teeth and glared at Zhao Xin.
"It must be you who slandered me and framed me before Lord Ruan!"
"Still being stubborn!"
Zhao Xin raised his leg and kicked Li Yun hard.
"I ask you, who was the person who went to the dungeon with you yesterday in Yizhou Prefecture?"
"this........"
Li Yun's gaze froze, and he inwardly cried out, "Oh no!"
"What, have nothing more to say?"
Zhao Xin snorted.
"Just confess that person's identity without hesitation, so you can avoid further beatings by the military, understand?"
"That man was just a victim in a case in the city,"
Li Yun quickly repeated the words he had used to deal with Ruan Qixiang the day before.
“I took him to the dungeon yesterday just to identify the prisoners.”
"Heh, identifying criminals?"
Zhao Xin chuckled.
"Chief Li, are you treating us like fools?"
Chapter 495 Busy Parties
"Lord Ruan had already inquired with the clerk on duty at the prefectural office and other runners,"
Zhao Xin sneered.
"There haven't been any cases lately that require identifying people in the dungeon!"
"Li Yun, it seems you really won't shed a tear until you see the coffin?"
Zhao Xin gestured for the two soldiers to come forward again with their clubs.
"You two, give Chief Li a proper welcome again."
"Just remember, don't kill anyone!"
"Yes!"
The two sergeants grinned maliciously.
Raise your baton!
......
Not far from where the soldiers of Yizhou Prefecture were encamped,
Han Bolong brought his two brothers,
Huddled in the grass,
He observed the movements within the military camp.
"Chief Han, judging from the direction of their march, they don't seem to be heading towards Liangshan."
"A spy said."
"Regardless of whether their target is Liangshan or not, we must investigate thoroughly."
Han Bolong said in a deep voice,
"Where's the map? Let me see it!"
Another spy retrieved the map.
The three of them checked the direction of advance of the Yizhou Prefecture government troops.
"Aishan...Mengshan...Rouge Mountain?"
Han Bolong suddenly paused for a moment.
"Rouge Mountain?"
"Chief Han, is there a problem with Rouge Mountain?"
A spy asked in confusion,
"This place doesn't seem to have anything to do with Liangshan, does it?"
"It wasn't a problem before, but it's hard to say recently,"
Han Bolong pondered for a moment,
He was Shi Qian's deputy.
They naturally know far more than the average spy.
For example, Anle Village on Rouge Mountain
That's Liu Huiniang's hometown.
Han Bolong was aware of this as well.
Could it be that Chief Liu and his family returned to Rouge Mountain?
The news has leaked again.
This is what attracted the government troops from Yizhou Prefecture.
Han Bolong thought about it more and more and it seemed more and more likely.
prior to,
Chen Xizhen personally went to Liangshan.
Searching for the whereabouts of Liu Huiniang and Chen Liqing.
After he came down the mountain,
Shi Qian from Liangshan then personally went down the mountain.
They searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the two girls.
Han Bolong was also aware of this matter.
not good!
Liu and his family,
If it were really on Rouge Mountain,
If they are captured by the Yizhou government troops...
That would be terrible!
Thinking of this,
Han Bolong dared not delay any longer.
He looked at his two subordinates and gave them instructions.
"Listen up, you two, I'm going to check out Rouge Mountain now,"
"If the Yizhou Prefecture troops make any unusual moves, you must immediately send someone to Anle Village on Rouge Mountain!"
finished,
Before the two spies could respond,
Han Bolong quickly got up.
Horses were led out from the woods where they were hidden.
