Chapter 499: Catching People

Nan Xingkuang didn't explain, he just said with a slight smile.

"Second Prince, you don't need to ask too much about who the woman my senior brother loves is. You are here to get people today, and you are not here to ask about these things."

"General, I was indeed rash earlier. Please forgive me if I offended you in any way." Xuanyuan Lie lowered his face and apologized.

If he wants to completely control the Jiangnan area, Nan Xing Kuang must pass this test.

So in this case, he had no choice but to pull this face off.

Nan Xingkuang sneered and said, "Okay, since the second prince has apologized to me, then I will naturally give you this face. Bai Jingtian is the commander of the inner bodyguards. For your and Gu Chan's sake, I will spare his life." Yes, as for the others..."

"Everyone who comes will be dragged down and beheaded by me."

Several soldiers immediately rushed in after the order, preparing to put down the several Ouchi guards who were hanging in the air, drag them out and behead them.

"Master, help!"

"Master, although we don't regret dying, we won't be willing to die like this."

"Yes, Master, we would rather use our lives to help you completely take over the Jiangnan area. If we die like this, we will die unjustly."

Several imperial guards shouted orders.

Everyone present could see that they were not the kind of people who were greedy for life and afraid of death, and they were not willing to die like this. This time they risked their lives and escorted Xuanyuan Lie all the way to Jiangnan City, just to help He completely controlled the Jiangnan area and pushed him to the highest throne.

If they die like this now, how can they remain silent?

Xuanyuan Lie's face was ashen. Facing these guards who were loyal to him, how could he just watch them die in vain?

At that moment, he immediately stood up, waved his hand and said, "General, wait a moment."

"Second Prince, it is a serious crime to attack the military camp at night. I only killed a few of them, and I have given you a lot of respect. Please don't make things difficult for me." Nan Xing said coldly.

Xuanyuan Lie was speechless and didn't know what to say.

Originally, he was unreasonable in this matter, but now it is impossible for him alone to save these loyal men.

So at this moment, he could only look at Yan Xishan and Guo Huai standing below.

Unexpectedly, these two pig heads did not dare to speak when faced with such strong pressure from Nan Xingkuang. They just stood there with their heads lowered, secretly reaching out to wipe the cold sweat on their foreheads.

In the end, Xuanyuan Lie had no choice but to look at Gu Chan.

Gu Chan chuckled and said, "General, instead of killing them, I have a way to relieve your anger."

"What can I do? Let me tell you." Nan Xing Kuangsha said with interest.

"Let them go swimming in the river south of the Yangtze River, and then let the second prince take a fishing rod to fish. If he can catch as many people as he can within the specified time, he will spare them. If he cannot catch them, he will kill them. This Wouldn't it not only give the second prince face, but also relieve the general's anger?" Gu Chan said with a smile.

"Hahaha..."

As soon as she said these words, the lieutenants sitting on both sides couldn't help but open their mouths and burst into laughter.

Nan Xingkuang's face was cold at first, but now he was amused by Gu Chan. He slapped the table with his big hand and laughed and said, "Okay, this method is good. How many people can be saved depends on the second prince's ability. I am happy to explain it to you." "I'm angry." "Second Prince, it's up to you." Gu Chan said with a smile.

Xuanyuan Lie stood there, too embarrassed to speak.

Dry!

At this moment, he really felt like he was riding a tiger and couldn't get off. He had grown up so big and had good food and clothing all day long. How could he have caught any fish?

If he was asked to catch these Ouchi guards, he didn't know where to start.

Nan Xing looked at him crazily and said, "How about the second prince, are you satisfied with Gu Chan's handling method?"

"Well... I'm satisfied. I'm really grateful that the general can give me such face. Then I'll give it a try, just fishing." Xuanyuan Lie said bravely.

"Okay, come here, take them to the river. Everyone should follow me and watch the second prince fishing." Nan Xing waved his hand and ordered.

All the lieutenants stood up and responded in unison.

Then everyone followed Nan Xingkuang and escorted the imperial guards towards the outside of the general hall.

After a while, everyone arrived at a shore behind Jiangnan Camp.

In front of this shore is a backwater bay, which is where soldiers from the Jiangnan camp often go to bathe. It is as deep as four or five meters, and this depth is simply too deep for the soldiers in the Jiangnan area who are familiar with water properties. Nothing.

But for people coming from Kyoto in the north, this is a bit scary.

Over in Kyoto, because it is located in the north and there are few rivers, most people are landlubbers. Although these Ouchi guards are not landlubbers, their water skills are not much better.

So when they were led to the shore and looked at the green backwater bay in front of them, they all couldn't help but swallow saliva in their throats, with a look of fear on their faces.

At this time, a soldier brought a fishing rod and handed it to Xuanyuan Lie.

Nan Xingkuang waved his hand and said, "Come on! Push them all into the water."

"Ah? General, didn't you untie their ropes?" Xuanyuan Lie asked dumbly.

The several Ouchi guards who were escorted to the shore were all tied up with ropes, as if they were tied into hairy crabs. They were pushed into the water like this. How long can they hold on?

Xuanyuan Lie and the three of them all thought that Nan Xingkuang would at least untie their ropes and push them into the water. This time they were really surprised.

Nan Xingkuang sneered and said, "If you can untie their ropes and they can swim back to the shore, why do you need to catch them?"

"Yes, Second Prince, your request is too much. The general has already given you a lot of face, so don't push yourself too far!" Gu Chan followed up and said.

Xuanyuan Lie stared at her angrily and whispered, "Your uncle, are you helping me or him?"

"If I didn't help you, a few of them would have been beheaded just now, and they were still waiting for you to come here to catch them! Let me tell you, the next time is when you show yourself, you'd better catch them as soon as possible, otherwise If they drown, it means you are incompetent. Look at the many soldiers present, who will obey you?" Gu Chan said angrily.

"You..." Xuanyuan Lie was speechless.

Gu Chan added, "This can be regarded as a test for you by the general. If you can't even save these people, you are not qualified to rule Jiangnan in their eyes."

"Master, what Gu Chan said is that it all depends on you now. I believe you." Bai Jingtian also joined in and said.

Xuanyuan Lie suddenly felt a surge of enthusiasm in his heart, and decided that he must rely on himself to rescue all these loyal men ashore today.
