Tips

usage
押解 specifically means moving someone or something under guard — typically suspects, convicts, or valuables (gold, evidence, artifacts). Note the pronunciation: here is jiè (third reading), not the more common jiě ('to untie/solve') or xiè (surname). The agent is normally police, military police, or court officers.
