Chapter 17: Escape

Ji Cang watched the remnants of Liu Huzi burrow into the mountains and forests like a fish swimming into the sea, and disappeared in less than a while, and couldn't help but pull off his hat and fall to the ground: "Damn!"

Not only Ji Cang was annoyed, but the officers and soldiers of the Third Division who participated in this clean-up couldn't help but want to scold. Originally, they should have returned to Yancheng to sleep with their mother-in-law, but because Mu Dashao was greedy and reckless, Liu Huzi took advantage of the loophole to escape from the encirclement, resulting in all their efforts being in vain.

Mu Chengyao has rich experience in actual combat, and has made careful arrangements before departure, which person is assigned what to do, and his subordinates have followed him for many years, cooperating with each other tacitly, and using this trump card division to suppress bandits, everyone feels that they can be caught.

But there is one more Mu Dashao in it.

Mu Chengyao originally arranged Mu Fusheng by his side, so that he could clearly see how he deployed the battle plan, how he coordinated the on-the-spot command, and how to deal with emergencies.

Dashuai hoped that Mu Fusheng would follow suit, and Mu Chengyao arranged him in the position that was most conducive to learning. But Mu Fusheng didn't think so, in his opinion, Mu Chengyao's arrangement was obviously deliberately squeezing him out and not allowing him to have the opportunity to lead the battle, so Mu Fusheng insisted on his own opinion and resolutely demanded to face the bandits head-on.

What can Mu Chengyao do? He can only be arranged by the eldest young master to rearrange for him.

In the process of encircling and suppressing Liu Huzi, the others have worked together for many years and have a tacit understanding with each other, they don't need Mu Chengyao to give an order, they know what to do, and Mu Fusheng has never been on the battlefield before, and he doesn't have that kind of tacit understanding, he only feels that after the action starts, he is always one step behind others and is controlled everywhere. This made Mu Fusheng more and more jealous of Mu Chengyao, thinking that Mu Chengyao secretly ordered everyone to exclude him.

Mu Fusheng held his breath in his chest, not up or down, like a fish in his throat. Therefore, when Mu Chengyao asked Mu Fusheng's guards to pretend to break up and lure the enemy deeper, Mu Fusheng did not listen and rushed straight out, as a result, the guards were ambushed by Liu Huzi and suffered heavy losses, and Liu Huzi took the opportunity to lead the rest of the party to rush out of the encirclement that had not yet been synthesized.

Mu Chengyao had no choice but to adjust the battle plan and order some people to stay and clean up the battlefield, while others continued to pursue.

Who knew that Liu Huzi was very cunning, leading them around without saying anything, and he would set up suspicious formations, and divided people to go from different roads to distract the troops, while Liu Huzi himself took his henchmen to cover his whereabouts and ran all the way to Yancheng. They chased Liu Huzi for a day and a night, but they followed farther and farther away, until they reached the mountains and forests, where trees and weeds covered up the traces left by Liu Huzi's remnants, and finally they were completely lost.

"Boss, Liu Huzi has run away without a trace again, it's not a way to go on like this, how long will we chase after this?"

Mu Chengyao was staring at the map, and when he heard this, he didn't correct Ji Cang's suspicious title, but just clicked on the map and asked him to come and see.

The map has already marked the escape route of Liu Huzi these days, Liu Huzi started from Tongcheng and fled all the way north, with occasional deviations in direction but soon back on track. Ji Cang found the location of Liu Huzi on the map, and his gaze continued to move upward, seeing the city that Mu Chengyao had highlighted.

"Impossible!" Ji Cang's first reaction was how could Liu Huzi's target be Yancheng, didn't he hit the muzzle of the gun by himself, but his trust in the boss for many years was deeply rooted in his heart, and the boss pointed to him wherever he hit. He didn't ask Mu Chengyao how he judged, and asked directly: "Boss, what should we do now?"

"Wait. ”

"What are you waiting for?"

Before Ji Cang's words fell, the adjutant came over and reported: "Division commander, Mu Shao is here." ”

Mu Chengyao retracted his gaze from the map expressionlessly, others couldn't see what he was thinking, Ji Cang frowned impatiently, oh, it turned out to be waiting for this eldest young master.

"Mu Chengyao, what's the matter with you? I heard that you lost Liu Huzi!" A group of people came in, and Mu Fusheng walked in the front, and he didn't wait for the others to speak.

Ji Cang snorted coldly, and the voice was so loud that everyone could hear it.

Along the way, Mu Fusheng didn't do anything serious except for dragging his feet, so that Ji Cang's patience with this eldest young master plummeted, and now when he heard that Mu Fusheng never mentioned his mistakes and was bent on arrogance, he finally lost the last bit of patience. According to Ji Cang's character, he would have choked back a long time ago, but he finally remembered that this was a military camp, and the young master was in a higher position than him at this time, so he didn't open his mouth in the end, but just snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction.

When Mu Chengyao purged the bandits in the territory before, he had never seen any kind of treacherous and ruthless bandits, he could climb from a small soldier step by step to the position of the marshal's henchman without any background, and there was no shortage of military talent and sophistication, Mu Dashuai also took this into account before handing over Mu Fusheng to him, hoping that his son's first battle in the army would win a dazzling victory.

Mu Chengyao is used to making a backup plan for deployment, if Liu Huzi broke through the siege, if he had been caught according to Mu Chengyao's backup plan, but the bad thing is that Mu Fusheng didn't want Mu Chengyao to be overwhelmed, and he was bent on fighting for command, but he was a high-achieving student who graduated from the Japanese Military Academy and thought that he had excellent military literacy, so when he and Mu Chengyao had a disagreement on predicting Liu Huzi's escape route, Mu Fusheng insisted that he was right, and argued at the meeting regardless of the military order.

The last thing a team can do is to have two voices, especially in action, which can seriously slow down efficiency.

Mu Chengyao is the commander, Mu Fusheng is the heir of the marshal, neither of them can help the other, and in the end, Mu Fusheng led the troops to pursue the south, and the speed of the troops increased. But during this time, Liu Huzi ran away and disappeared.

Mu Fusheng had thought about it before, and when he saw Mu Chengyao asking for guilt, in this way, if Mu Chengyao asked for guilt, he would just be deducted from a hat of poor command, and the matter of someone delaying the military situation with his own judgment mistake in front would not be too conspicuous. If Mu Chengyao argues with him, it will be just right, and everyone's eyes will be diverted, and no one will mention himself uninterestingly.

But Mu Fusheng didn't expect that Mu Chengyao didn't answer, he just looked at him expressionlessly, stared at by those deep eyes, as if all his careful thoughts were clear, Mu Chengyao looked at him like watching a clown jumping in front of him, he didn't move him not because of awe or anything, just because this person was too lazy to move.

This made it difficult for Mu Fusheng to breathe, and he only felt that there was a force around him that made him unable to raise his head. Hearing Ji Cang's cold snort, as if he was annoyed and angry, Mu Fusheng was furious: "Chief Pastor, this is the soldier you brought out?"

This is a curse. This is blatantly provoking the relationship between the marshal and the chief pastor!

The generals were in an uproar, and then secretly looked at each other, and no one dared to come forward to talk at this time, lest they become cannon fodder.

Ji Cang scolded secretly, this young master doesn't have much ability, and he is very skilled in sowing discord, and he really has a true biography of Little Japan.

He stepped forward to carry the mine, but Li Youguang, the commander of the Third Regiment of the Guards, quickly grabbed him and motioned him to wait.

Mu Chengyao was calculating in his heart where Liu Huzi was most likely to appear, and Mu Fusheng's blind voice continued in his ears, and he turned his head a little impatiently: "Are you sure you want to talk to me about undiscipline?"

Mu Chengyao's eyes were like a cold blade and slashed at Mu Fusheng with a vicious aura: "As for your doubts, I will report to the marshal truthfully after returning to Yancheng." ”

Mu Fusheng forcibly resisted the thought of retreating, realizing that he had been suppressed by Mu Chengyao repeatedly, his face was ugly, and his eyes bulged and shouted: "Mu Chengyao, what do you mean? You dare to look down on me!"

Mu Chengyao looked directly into Mu Fusheng's eyes, did not speak, Mu Fusheng was seen sweating on his forehead to avoid looking at each other, Mu Chengyao retracted his gaze: "Don't you still understand what the marshal means by letting you follow me? This is the army, don't bring the politicians' set over, everyone here is fighting with real knives and guns." Comrades-in-arms, it is the friendship that can deliver the back in the sea of corpses and blood, and your little calculations will not work here. ”

"You want command? I'll give it to you, can you take it?"

Mu Chengyao's face was still expressionless, his voice was not hurried or slow, but the words he said exploded in Mu Fusheng's ears like thunder.

Mu Fusheng was exposed in public, and he only felt that the sight that came from all directions could shoot him through, making him eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.

He was humiliated in public, it doesn't count, the person who humiliated him is still Mu Chengyao, Mu Fusheng is also the pride of the sky, at this time, where do you remember to endure it, "Mu Chengyao, don't forget who carried you, if you don't have my father, you are nothing! Now run to me and put on a face, after all, you are just a watchdog raised by my family, what qualifications do you have to teach me!"

As soon as these words came out, the generals were in an uproar.

Although Mu Chengyao is young, his military exploits are real and he fought with his life, even those old guys who have followed the marshal in the south and the north for many years can't say with a clear conscience that Mu Chengyao is inferior to them.

To put it mildly, Mu Chengyao is now only leading a division and has wronged him, if it weren't for the grace of the handsome, Mu Chengyao's ability would not have been able to go. Mu Dashao has such an attitude towards the class that has not yet taken over the handsome, if he really becomes a handsome one day, wouldn't these old people even be as good as dogs.

As soon as Mu Fusheng spoke, his reason recovered, and he knew that he was going to suffer, but he really couldn't do it if he gave up his face to apologize to these people. Mu Fusheng wanted to throw off his sleeves and leave, but if he dared to leave, he would be able to force him to apologize with a gun to his head when he returned.

Li Youguang of the Guards also didn't look good on his face. Previously, Mu Fusheng did not listen to persuasion and acted recklessly, resulting in heavy losses for the Guards, and several regiment commanders seconded to Mu Fusheng together did not follow him to participate in this meeting, Li Youguang was more sleek, knowing that they were now Mu Fusheng's people, and if the generals of the Guards did not appear, they would slap Mu Dashao's face in the face, so they could only clean up their dissatisfaction and continue to follow, so that they could get by on face.

Seeing that Mu Fusheng and Mu Chengyao were so stiff, and none of the people on the third division spoke, Li Youguang had to step forward to play a round with the eyes of his colleagues, "Everyone, everyone, Chief of Staff Mu is young after all, and he was full of enthusiasm to serve the motherland with all his life's learning, but he didn't expect that it would be unfavorable to be a teacher, so he naturally held his breath in his heart, so he was a little unscrupulous, everyone was young, who hasn't been dizzy yet, forgive me!"

Why did Mu Fusheng not choose to say anything? He didn't do it himself. Mu Chengyao and Mu Fusheng are the same age, how come they have never seen him lose his temper!

However, tearing the skin is not good for anyone, Mu Fusheng may not be worried if he has the support of a handsome man, but Mu Cheng is not necessarily. The generals of the three divisions also echoed their own boss's considerations.

"Lao Li's words are reasonable, think about our backdays, we would fight if we didn't agree with each other, Chief of Staff Mu is a Sven person, and he is different from us martial artists. ”

"Yes, yes, people don't be impulsive teenagers, understand. ”

"It's normal to be angry in your heart when you are not good to be out of school, and it's good to vent it. ”

Mu Fusheng also hurriedly went down the steps, "The pastor is right, I was talking on paper, I didn't say anything just now, and I ask the pastor and everyone not to mind." ”

Everyone said they didn't mind.

Seeing this, Mu Chengyao raised his hand and pressed it, and everyone was silent.
