On his third strike, Qiu Dafu increased the force.
"The enemy is coming!" Qiu Dayu sat up abruptly.
The moment he saw his second brother, his jaw dropped, and he froze, completely stunned.
I couldn't come to my senses for a long time.
"What, you've joined the army and you don't even recognize your second brother anymore?" Qiu Dafu looked at his fifth brother's noticeably stronger physique and couldn't help but smile.
"Second Brother." Qiu Dayu's surprise vanished, replaced by ecstatic joy.
At this moment, his feelings were like those of a lost child who had suddenly found their family.
This feeling was unlike anything he had ever experienced before.
No, to be precise, they are children who have run away from home.
He reached out and hugged his second brother's shoulders.
"Second brother, I've missed you so much these past few days."
His father died early, and his eldest brother also died on the battlefield. His second brother was like a brother and a father to him.
Military life matured him considerably and instilled in this once rebellious teenager a greater sense of responsibility.
Qiu Dafu patted Qiu Dayu on the shoulder and glanced at the neatly arranged army.
"Go back to your unit first."
"Hmm?" Qiu Dayu turned his head, and when he saw the already well-organized army, he instantly shuddered.
"Second brother, don't go. I still have so much to tell you."
In the blink of an eye, he was in formation.
It was only then that Qiu Dafu realized that his fifth brother was injured, through his slightly limping leg.
He then walked towards Gu Qian.
But they had only gone halfway down the road,
Suddenly—
Rumble~~~~~~~~~~
Rumble~~~~~~~~~~
Several loud explosions rang out in succession.
Explosions were heard one after another.
Qiu Dafu was startled.
He looked around hurriedly.
Qin Feng arrived so quickly?
No, the explosion was some distance away from them.
"There's explosives..." one of the soldiers shouted, and everyone turned pale.
Upon hearing the explosion, General Liang suddenly looked at Gu Qian.
"It's you? General Gu, we have already surrendered."
Gu Qian shook his head: "It wasn't me."
Then, he looked towards the direction of the palace.
"The explosion came from over there." General Liang took a step back. "Was it the Second Prince?"
He knew that the Second Prince was currently forcing the emperor to abdicate.
Gu Qian shook his head, offering no explanation.
"Soldiers, be alert!" Captain Qin immediately assumed a defensive stance.
All the soldiers turned pale.
Qiu Dayu rushed towards Qiu Dafu immediately.
His second brother had not received military training, and he wanted to protect him.
But after a single glance from Gu Qian, he sheepishly returned to his team.
"General, get out of the city quickly!" At this moment, Captain Qin had already run to Gu Qian's side.
Gu Qian nodded.
"Assemble the troops, General Liang, out of the city, retreat quickly! Second Uncle, follow us!"
Gu Qian was good at recognizing and utilizing talent.
He will cooperate with whoever is most profitable.
During the chaos of war, there is no common enemy, only common interests.
He was able to use Western Qin to destroy Northern Qi.
They could also join forces with General Liang of Northern Qi to defeat Western Qin.
What he always does is expand his territory while ensuring the safety of Dongjin itself.
Just as he was about to set off, Gu Qian remembered something and suddenly pulled on the reins.
Immediately, Qiu Dafu stepped forward and blocked his way.
"You cannot leave the city!"
"You cannot leave the city!"
The two spoke in unison!
"Why?" General Liang was completely confused, but he also realized that there was a third group among them.
That explosion could have come from either their Crown Prince or someone else.
In short, he is not one of Gu Qian's people.
