Chapter 193: That Explosion

The days have passed so ordinarily, and February has quietly arrived. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ten days ago, Meng Ji took a lot of people and escorted 200 carts of things to the Pylorus Pass, and no news has been sent back so far.

In the evening, when the new camp was being built in full swing, a thunderclap suddenly sounded, and countless gravel flew around, and the scene was a little terrifying.

At that time, Meng Ge was sitting in front of the board with the people in the room, chopping the fried lamb bones.

After the mutton bones are chopped into powder, mixed with sorghum noodles, adjusted and kneaded into balls, steamed out and another dish.

In fact, this dish should be fried the most. However, there is little oil and water in the camp, and no one is willing to take it out and fry a lamb bone.

When he heard the explosion, the axe in Mengo's hand almost didn't cut off the desk.

"What's the matter, what's the matter? Someone's coming to attack our camp? Guys, copy the guy out and fuck it. Da Fei was startled, and the axe fell to the ground.

What followed was the gravel falling from the sky, and some of it smashed directly into the roof of the straw shed of the house and fell to the edge of the stove.

The people in the camp were also more or less attacked in the same way.

Fortunately, after a certain distance of cushioning, the rubble did not hurt anyone, but it smashed a lot of tents.

In fact, it didn't break much, but it was pierced with some holes.

However, before everyone could react, the explosions rang out one after another.

After a dozen or so sounds, the world fell silent.

Looking at the room with almost half a pot of gravel, and the roof of the room with a large skylight almost open, the corners of Meng Ge's mouth kept twitching for a long time.

Wouldn't these people have tested these explosives in the mountains without knowing the power of these explosives?

and behold not the great camp that they have woefully done. It's almost the season of spring rains, how should they spend such a leaky camp?

Stretched out his hand to rub the thatch that had fallen to the top of his hair for Meng Mao, Meng Ge was about to explain it to Da Fei and the others, but there was chaos outside.

"Come out and assemble quickly, the deputy general has an order to let all the personnel gather in the school field. "Someone outside was banging on the gong and running and shouting.

On the other side of the school field, the gongs and drums of the assembly also sounded intensively.

Everywhere there were people stumbling and running, muttering, "What's going on, could it be that the enemy is really coming?"

However, no one could answer them. Everyone is the same, in a daze.

Except for Meng Ge, she knew that it was the incident caused by the explosion of gunpowder.

As for whether the mountain rocks were blown up to test the effect, or as a process for building the camp, it remains to be explained by the above.

So, Meng Ge no longer explained to Da Fei and them, and the big guy took out the basket, covered up everything on the board, and ran out.

After a while, everyone was on campus.

Compared with before, when there were more than 30,000 people, the full number of people, and now the people on the school field can be described as sparse.

The school field, which is less than 10,000 people, instantly looks empty. Meng Ge looked at the blankness and horror on the faces of those people, and he felt a little sympathetic.

In this age of cold weapons, firearms are a myth to them, something as terrifying as death.

After the commanders had gathered everyone and asked everyone to line up quietly, the deputy general of the company let people listen to the assembly drum and explain to everyone what had just happened.

"You don't have to worry about an enemy attack. This is a loud noise caused by the explosion of rocks to build a camp, and it is best to find a sheltered place to hide when you hear the loud noise, and then come out and clean up after the noise has passed. Lian Deputy General said with a little embarrassment.

He himself had just been frightened. If he hadn't known in advance that side was opening the mountain, he was afraid that he would really think that the enemy was coming, so he directly greeted everyone and ran out.

After repeated assurances and tireless explanations from the deputy general, everyone was relieved and no longer afraid.

It's just that the general Yu below has a somewhat inexplicable look. He looked the same as usual. If anyone looked closer, they would see that his fists hidden in his sleeves were clenched with a rattle.

Although he didn't receive any news from above, it didn't prevent him from having some connections and some ears.

He knew that the other camp built over there was built for Wang Ran and other teenagers, and it had nothing to do with him.

But no one has been able to find out what the purpose of that camp was built.

Even the two pro-guards who followed behind the lieutenant general didn't know.

This made General Yu extremely uneasy. How to say, he is an officer in this barracks, second only to the company adjutant general.

However, he had no idea about the construction of the new camp and its purpose.

The most terrible thing was that they didn't even want to inform him about the new camp.

General Yu thought that he knew everything in this military camp, and he could grasp any news first-hand. That is because of his position in the army, and it is also the trust and reliance of the general on him.

Therefore, no matter what he wants to know, he only needs to inquire a little, and someone will naturally tell him to listen.

It's just that, since Meng Ge and the others appeared a few years ago, he has found that he is becoming more and more useless in this army.

The most direct manifestation is that he cannot meddle in the affairs of the army, big or small.

After that, he and his subordinates failed to get those important tasks.

Just like the last time he used grain as bait, he was sent to squat in the snow and ice. Zhou Changan and others were even sent to dig trenches.

Now, the small sections of the trenches that had been dug with all the best efforts were considered to have been filled in, and they were filled again before they were used.

Isn't this the rhythm of finding something to do for them, but not letting them do the right thing.

No, Yu Shen was extremely uneasy for a while. He was reflecting on himself, and the actions and deeds of those under him.

He was afraid that the general would alienate them because he had seen the essence of these people, and he would no longer entrust them with important tasks.

As for the source of all this, Meng Ge and the others must have been the first to be targeted by General Yu.

If they had been shot to death by him on the wall, there would have been no such thing as now.

At that time, he still thought simpler and softer.

Thinking like this, General Yu couldn't help but turn his head slightly and glanced at Meng Ge and the others.

He thought that he had to find a way to get rid of these people, lest one day his suspicions come true, and he would regret it.

As for what he suspected, he felt that God knew that he knew, and there was no need for more people to know.

I don't know when the deputy general will finish explaining the matter, so he shouted to disband.

In short, when the rest of the staff returned, everyone was gone.

Seeing that it was getting dark, General Yu Shen planned to go back and have a good chat with Zhou Changan, hoping to learn something about Meng Ge from him.
