Chapter 400: Charge Out
Editor: Atlas Studios
Qi Haoran carried the spy alone and made a few gestures at the subordinates behind him. The men behind him then hid behind the forest in groups of three.
Qi Haoran bit the spy’s ear and said, “You’re not the only spy by my big brother’s side who tricked him into coming here, right? Let me guess how high his rank is. Is he a company commander, battalion commander, or an assistant commander under my big brother?”
The spy’s body stiffened imperceptibly. The viciousness in Qi Haoran’s eyes intensified as he smiled cruelly. “So it’s the assistant commander…”
The spy suddenly struggled violently and whimpered in an attempt to attract the attention of his companions. However, Qi Haoran did not stop him at all. As he carried him and ran up the mountain, he said with a smile, “Who is that person? Did he come with you this time? Is he a spy from your Jin Kingdom or a partner you found?”
The spy’s mouth was gagged, so it was impossible for him to answer. Qi Haoran didn’t need him to answer. They had already attracted the attention of the Jin soldiers who were searching for them. Standing on a rock, Qi Haoran looked down at the Jin soldiers below. He raised his voice and said, “Hey, listen up. Your guy is in our hands. Doesn’t your Jin Kingdom not give up on every warrior? Now, I’ll use him to exchange for a path.”
“Hahahaha…” A stalwart Jin Kingdom general strode out and looked at Qi Haoran mockingly. “As expected, the Han people like to daydream. The warriors of the Jin Kingdom are never afraid of sacrifice. Today, I must capture the Qi brothers. Shoot!”
A row of archers stepped forward, aimed in Qi Haoran’s direction, and shot. Qi Haoran turned around and dodged. In a few leaps, he hid in the forest. As he dodged, he shouted, “Quickly take my big brother away!”
There was a commotion behind a bush on the left and they ran up the mountain. When the Jin soldiers discovered them, they immediately shot arrows and chased after them. However, the three of them moved very quickly and always dodged when they were about to be shot.
The soldiers of the Jin Kingdom weren’t sure if Qi Xiuyuan was among them, but since they had the advantage of numbers, they still sent people to chase after them.
On the other side, Qi Haoran put down the spy after leaping out. He touched his neck and asked, “See, no one cares whether you die or live. If you tell me who betrayed my big brother, I’ll spare your life and give you 15 minutes to escape. How about that?”
The spy glared at Qi Haoran and remained silent.
“So you’re unwilling. Then forget it.” As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Haoran snapped his neck and threw him aside. He said to his subordinates who had followed him over one after another, “Spread out. Today, we’ll have a good game with them and teach them what a jungle battle is.”
Slightly excited, the 30 of them pulled out the daggers from their legs and split up in groups of three. Hence, the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom realized that their men had been silently killed when they were advancing to search.
