Chapter 208: The Camp of Elite Armor
When Ju Shao stood up again, both Jiang Ming and Lin Han and these soldiers who were besieging but not attacking showed respect.
Knowing that he is invincible, he is still not succumbing to the enemy's force in defeat, this kind of iron-clad spirit has a strong appeal in the barracks, and the soldiers in the battalion are all angry, if he was afraid of Jiang Ming's identity before, he will not have any worries now.
"Jiang Ming!"
Lin Han, as a bystander, first discovered the changes in these soldiers, if he really provoked the soldiers of this battalion, it would inevitably be a real bloody battle, and at that time their identity as commander would have no effect, this kind of battle had only one result, weakening the combat effectiveness of the Wohua Mountain army.
Jiang Ming was also slightly stunned, and he noticed the appearance of the change, if he targeted this Ju Shao in a humiliating way, even if he could be knocked to the ground again, he would undoubtedly become the target of the public, and he would be punished by the soldiers of the whole battalion, which was not the result he wanted.
Jiang Ming didn't make a move, and said coldly: "Your name is Ju Shao, right? I have to say, you are a real soldier, but my hunger target is not you, let's let Hu Yanwu come out!"
Ju Shao looked embarrassed, the blood from the corner of his mouth flowed into his collar, but he still didn't wipe it, he looked at Jiang Ming's complicated expression, and laughed instead: "Ninth Commander, are you afraid?" It turns out that even if you don't reach that peak, you will be afraid, I really can't defeat you, but don't forget that this is in the barracks, even if I die here, there are so many battalion soldiers to avenge me, I don't believe it, you can be a thousand soldiers alone?"
Receiving this naked threat, Jiang Ming's eyes were full of murderous intent, but he didn't intend to wave the halberd, but took a step forward and said, "Do you think this makes sense? Use your seriously injured body in exchange for loyalty to Hu Yanwu, do you think that in this way he will regard you as a confidant and let you be above 10,000 people in this army? If one day, without me as an enemy, you use your own humiliation to achieve your ambitions, no matter how stupid Hu Yanwu is, he will not let you continue to stay in this barracks." ”
Ju Shao shouted angrily: "Don't try to confuse the public, I won't believe your nonsense, I have become the deputy general of the commander from an ordinary soldier to now, everything is given to me by him, I have no one to rely on, if I want to become stronger, I can only sharpen and fight, if I want to seek a high position, I can only climb the rope of the commander." But what do you know, you villain who can only tend to be inflammatory, if you don't rely on your friendship with the six commanders, how can you sit in the position of commander? I am the first of all the commanders and lieutenants to reach the eighth-rank rank, except for being slightly inferior in force, how can I compare to you?"
Jiang Ming saw his hatred for himself in Ju Shao's eyes that seemed to be about to kill him, he thought for a moment, his expression gradually became indifferent, and he smiled slightly, and said: "Ju Shao, it turns out that your ambition is to become the commander, and it is really a childish ambition to be able to sit on an equal footing with these people!"
Ju Shao was shocked, he was angered by Jiang Ming's words before, and he actually revealed these things, he forced himself to calm down, and said: "Nonsense, I just can't get used to you sitting in this position, whether it is seniority or force, you can't meet the requirements, there are opposing voices in many military camps, not to mention me......"
"Then you really want to be the commander?" Jiang Ming interrupted Ju Shao's defense, at this time Ju Shao was stunned, he didn't expect that this Jiang Ming was good at seeing his thoughts from the words of others, and the sharpness of his words was all seven inches, which made it a little difficult for him to get out.
Ju Shao saw that he couldn't defend himself, so he said angrily: "Ninth Commander, you must know that this is the territory of the first battalion, you not only trespassed into my military camp, but also made disrespectful remarks and insulted my commander, how can I Ju Shao tolerate you? Eat me with a knife!"
Ju Shao came to attack Jiang Ming for the last time, Jiang Ming would not humiliate him this time, but would defeat him in the most direct way, only in this way could Hu Yanwu be forced.
I saw Jiang Ming put the Fang Yuan halberd into the soil, and the halberd instantly unfolded, and it seemed to others that Jiang Ming actually caught Ju Shao's big knife with his bare hands, and raised his hand to bounce it away, and then hit Ju Shao with his bare hands, and knocked him unconscious, and then said in front of a group of battalion soldiers: "Your general is a good general, I admire it, but it's a little bit drilly, I knocked him out, you send him back to rest!"
Jiang Ming sent the unconscious Ju Shao to a soldier, and there was no reason to pay attention to this Ju Shao, to such an extent, not only saved face for him, but also worthy of the position of the commander, he had to deal with Hu Yanwu next.
"Hu Yanwu, you've been hiding nearby for a long time, and you haven't come out to see us?"
Jiang Ming said casually, all the soldiers looked around, most of them were extremely suspicious, the two commanders of Wohua Mountain broke into the barracks, and the deputy general was seriously injured and unconscious, but the commander did not know where he went, if Hu Yanwu did not come out at this time, he was afraid that his majesty as a commander would be lost in Jiang Ming's words.
Just as all the soldiers were looking around, a black shadow walked out of the crowd, but it was Hu Yanwu, but he didn't have a weapon in his hand, and Jiang Ming and Lin Han didn't dare to rush forward at this time.
Hu Yanwu said with a smile: "I wanted to see how much ability you have as a new commander, but I didn't expect to be discovered by you, nine commanders, six commanders, fortunately." ”
Hu Yanwu spoke casually, and then he cleared up the most culpable in front of him, and explained to the soldiers the reason why he did not show up, but put Jiang Ming in the position where all the soldiers condemned in unison.
Jiang Ming didn't care at all, he didn't have his own military camp, even if he was disgusted by these soldiers, it didn't matter, anyway, he wouldn't stay in Wohua Mountain for a long time.
Seeing Hu Yanwu's expression, he was disgusted, so he said: "The Grand Commander has won the award, but I actually didn't find out where you were hiding, or the Great Commander hid it well." ”
Hu Yanwu said with a smile: "Too modest, since you have made such a fuss in the military camp, then you and the six commanders should also be tired, how about going to my camp tent to talk about military affairs in detail?"
Lin Han stepped forward and patted Jiang Ming on the shoulder, and said, "It's okay, then it's going to bother the Great Commander." ”
Jiang Ming said: "I'm free, no matter where I am, as long as I can see the Grand Commander." ”
Just as the three of them turned to leave, one of the captains asked, "Commander, what about the soldiers killed by the Sixth Commander and the Ninth Commander?"
Jiang Ming heard this whisper and said with a joke: "Great Commander, those soldiers will attack us first, you won't let us pay for your subordinates for these things, right?"
Hu Yanwu's face was gloomy, and he said with a smile: "Naturally not, a few soldiers who don't know how to measure, dare to make a move to the commander, it is cheaper to die like this, if I do it myself, it will not be a knife to kill them." ”
Hearing Hu Yanwu's ruthless tone, Jiang Ming and Lin Han just smiled, no matter how they deal with it now, it will be good for them, no matter what Hu Yanwu says, this army will be resentful, you must know that it was his lieutenant general who ordered them to shoot in the first place.
When they came to the camp, Hu Yanwu naturally sat in the first place, and Jiang Ming and Lin Han sat on the left side, which was regarded as giving the two of them a high respect. It's just that Jiang Ming didn't intend to hand over the halberd to the guards to take away, but put it behind him, and a guard came to ask for it, and said that the commander of the camp did not ignore other people's swords and soldiers, but Jiang Ming snorted coldly and forced the guard to retreat, without giving Hu Yanwu any face.
Hu Yanwu said: "Retreat, since the Nine Commanders are unwilling, then why do you have to force it? I, Lin Han, and Jiang Ming are all close associates of the mountain lord, will they assassinate me in this tent?"
The guard stumbled out.
Jiang Ming said: "Grand Commander, the reason why I left my weapon is not to refute your face, I remember that the Grand Commander was very interested in my long halberd, so I stayed and let the Grand Commander visit it, what do you say about my halberd? Do you need me to fight with the Grand Commander? This time my injuries are healed, and I think I will give the Grand Commander many surprises." ”
Huyan Wu Langran smiled and said: "The Nine Commanders have a heart, although this halberd is a good halberd, but this is the first time I have seen the Nine Commanders, how do you know that I am interested in your halberd?
Hu Yanwu not only rejected Jiang Ming's invitation, but denied all the things that he bullied Jiang Ming last time, which made Jiang Ming a little resentful, but he knew that the matter of military rations was the most important thing now, so he didn't grasp this problem, and secretly gave a look, Lin Han naturally knew that now was his time to play.
Lin Han arched his hand and said: "Great Commander, you should know very well that our department is headed by the second commander Liang Jin, and more than 20,000 soldiers originally fought against the Qin army in the Jiaozhi region, since there was a shortage of grain and grass in our camp more than ten days ago, so we sent out three teams to urge grain to Wohua Mountain, but so far there is no news from those three groups of people, and there is no news about grain and grass, if it were not for knowing that the Great Commander was guarding in this area, we would definitely think that there was an enemy army invading and taking away the grain and grass." Now that our army occupies Jiaozhi City, but there is still no sufficient supply of grain and grass, the second commander sent the two of us to personally come to the mountain road to inquire about the clues of grain and grass, I wonder what the commander has found?"
Hu Yanwu was puzzled and said, "Oh, there is such a thing in the realm I guard, this is a bit appalling. However, I clearly remember that a batch of grain and grass was transported out of here more than ten days ago, and it was also inspected by our army, and these things were all recorded in the book, and since this mountain road has been guarded by my people, can that batch Chinese of grain and grass still be lost?"
Lin Leng said in a cold voice: "The batch of grain and grass that the Great Commander said has passed through the area under your jurisdiction, but my military camp has never received any news from anyone, and our contact with Wohua Mountain was cut off more than ten days ago. Since the Grand Commander said conclusively that the batch of grain and grass did pass through this mountain road, it means that we have lost the grain and grass, and we have come to investigate the Grand Commander?"
Hu Yanwu paused and said with a smile: "Lin Han, you are joking, we are all the leaders of Wohua Mountain, so naturally we will not be so suspicious." It's just that there is a record in my barracks, and that batch of grain and grass really passed through the mountain roads in this area, and even the grain officers who transported the grain and grass are registered, and the two came to my barracks to find out the truth, but there is no news in my barracks. ”
Lin Han and Jiang Ming frowned, Hu Yanwu's words completely cleared him of the responsibility for the loss of grain and grass, which made it a little difficult for Lin Han and the two to continue to ask.
Lin Han thought slightly, and said, "Then I don't know the commander, have you seen the three food urging teams sent by my battalion?"
Hu Yanwu said: "No." ”
Jiang Ming said: "What the Great Commander means is that the grain and grass were lost in the Jiaozhi Mountains, and our three grain urging teams also had an accident in the Jiaozhi Mountains?"
Hu Yanwu said: "There is also this possibility, but there are still other possibilities, such as being robbed by the bandits of Daming Cave, being robbed by those southern barbarians, it will be possible." ”
Lin Han said: "This possibility is not very large, we searched all the way, and did not find any traces in the Jiaozhi Mountain Range, after eliminating this suspicion, it seems that only the mountain road area under the jurisdiction of the Great Commander remains." ”
Hu Yanwu said: "You are really joking, I naturally don't know where the grain and grass went, and I don't know where your grain urging team is now, but I know one thing, the grain and grass are lost in the Jiaozhi area, although Liang Jin is not responsible, but he, as the chief general of the Jiaozhi military camp, did not send the army in time to meet the grain and grass, this is considered a dereliction of responsibility, the two of them have to calculate clearly, if the mountain lord knows about this, he will definitely be punished." ”
Lin Han and Jiang Ming glanced at each other, their hearts were full of anger, but they couldn't attack on the spot, so they both stood up, Lin Han said: "Since this is the case, then don't bother the commander, we will naturally find out about the matter of grain and grass, and we will leave first." ”
Lin Han was in front, Jiang Ming took out the halberd, glanced at Hu Yanwu later, didn't say anything, and immediately followed.
Just as the two of them walked out of the camp, Hu Yanwu said: "Don't worry, two brothers, I won't report the loss of grain and grass to the mountain lord, please take care of the two." ”
Jiang Ming and Lin Han were both stunned, they didn't think this was a good thing, but Hu Yanwu firmly grasped his own truth, making the two of them irrefutable.
Walking out of the barracks, no one dared to stop Jiang Ming and the others, and the soldiers who led the way took them out of the camp.
Lin Han said, "Do you have any ideas?"
Jiang Ming shook his head and did not speak.
Lin Han asked again, "What do you think of the soldiers in this battalion?"
Jiang Ming said: "All of them are fierce and capable of fighting, and they are worthy of being the strongest army in Wohua Mountain except for the heavy cavalry." ”
Lin Han said: "Then what do you think of Hu Yanwu?"
Jiang Ming said: "Very strong, the last time we fought, I could clearly perceive that he was standing on the threshold of the half-step nine-stage, maybe one day he will really step into a new realm." ”
Lin Han said: "Then do you think Hu Yanwu has any flaws?"
Jiang Ming said: "Character naturally can't be speculated, but in terms of unifying the army, it is very powerful. If he sent an army to fight one-on-one, Luo Hu and Meng Lang would not be able to defeat him, and maybe Liang Jin would not be an opponent. Of course, he has another person, and in our military camp, even if you don't count Mu Ya, the five of you make up for each other's shortcomings, there is a great chance that you can defeat him in this regard. ”
Lin Han said: "What you said is quite true, what do you think of Hu Yanwu's temperament?"
Jiang Ming said: "Temperament, except for the overbearing mentioned at the beginning, there should be no other problems." The city is quite deep, good at planning, and can control his expression freely. Calm and calm, absolutely calm, Ju Shao was beaten like that by me before, he didn't make a move, it is enough to see that if he encounters a major event, he will be able to kill decisively, and he is an extremely ruthless person. ”
Lin Han was slightly surprised, and said: "You are a bit powerful, you have only seen it twice, and you can draw these conclusions from a person's actions and words, these abilities are not something that ordinary people can have." ”
Jiang Ming smiled: "Can you be regarded as flattery?"
Lin Han also laughed and said, "No, it's just that now Hu Yanwu has completely put aside the relationship, and we can't even find any evidence related to him, and the loss of this grain and grass is impossible to investigate." ”
Jiang Ming said: "I actually see the suspicion, Hu Yanwu said that his people have long been recorded, that batch of grain and grass passed by his barracks more than ten years ago, but on the way we came, there were no rut marks, it stands to reason that a grain truck is carrying thousands of stones of grain and grass, and there should always be some traces on the ground." ”
Lin Han suddenly stopped and said, "What you said is very reasonable, there has been no rain these days, and this mountain road is also black soil, it stands to reason that the ruts left behind will not disappear, but we haven't seen anything." In this way, it is very likely that the grain and grass did not pass through Huyanwu's military camp, either the land is lying, or Huyanwu is lying. ”
Lin Han and Jiang Ming looked at each other, many questions were solved at this time, and the direction of their inquiry was not wrong.
The soldier leading the way in front said, "Two commanders, is there anything wrong? ”
Jiang Ming and Lin Han suddenly stepped forward, and one of them grabbed one of the soldier's arms, and in order to hide their actions, they didn't forget to hide their arms backwards.
Lin Han looked at the soldier with a smile and said, "I've listened to our conversation for so long all the way, no matter what we say about your commander Hu Yanwu, you haven't had any change in expression, this is not an ordinary thing, what do you think?"
The soldier bowed his head and did not speak.
Jiang Ming said again: "You underestimate us, we have seen a lot of strong people, just by observing your actions, you can see that you are definitely not an ordinary martial artist, but in this military camp, I am not sure that there are people stronger than that Ju Shao." ”
The soldier suddenly snorted lightly and said with a smile: "The two of you are really good at perception, I hid it so well, and you found out, it's really ...... It's really confusing. I'm curious to know, what will you do with me?"
Jiang Ming let go of the hand that grabbed the soldier, and said with a smile: "You have changed your face, we can't see your face, but we don't want to reveal your disguise, otherwise we will treat it as if we don't know, and send us out of the camp!"
