บท 141: Jiang Ying Yue (48)

Two days immediately passed. On the early morning of the third day, a huge group consisting of more or less five thousand people left the capital, marching towards the east.

Jiang Li was with this group.

Like what he wrote on the letter Mao Hong sent to the Emperor, he brought a battalion of around a thousand soldiers with him. Since there was another army coming with them, he volunteered to just take the left flank. It was coincidentally the nearest to Jiang Ying Yue's carriage.

The rest of the formation was taken up by the people of another general surnamed Tao. This general was actually somebody from Rui Wang's faction, an old guy mostly stationed at the east. This guy happened to back to the capital due to a reason Jiang Li didn't know and didn't care to know. But when both Jiang Li and Jiang Ke declined the appointment, it was he who got the opportunity due to his familiarity with the place and terrains.
