Chapter 16: Haunted!
Subsequently, the strange thing that happened in General Deng Mao's camp revealed that it turned out that many Yellow Turban soldiers lost their weapons last night, and they couldn't find them no matter how they looked for them.
"More than 2,000 people have lost their ordnance, and there is no trace of it?" Cheng Yuanzhi frowned slightly.
"It's three feet away from digging into the ground."
Deng Mao looked worried, this matter is too weird, who knows if there will be a next time, if it is not investigated, it will cause a commotion sooner or later.
"Strange, weird."
In the tent, Cheng Yuanzhi paced back and forth, and when he saw Jiang Xiaobai hanging high next to him, he paused, and was a little suspicious.
Sensing his scrutinizing gaze, Jiang Xiaobai was suddenly unhappy, and snorted coldly: "Don't use your suspicious gaze to insult my noble personality." ”
Gain Cheng Yuanzhi's negative energy +298......
Gain Deng Mao's negative energy +36......
"Before you came, there had never been such a strange thing in the camp, and after you came, the carrier pigeons were gone, the ordnance was lost, and strangely, all of them came, is it a coincidence?" Cheng Yuanzhi asked.
"I slept in the tent last night, and I never went out, and I only had two hands, and if I really stole weapons, I could steal as much as I wanted."
Jiang Xiaobai was very aggrieved, he felt that Cheng Yuanzhi was deliberately finding fault, and if he couldn't catch the culprit, he wanted to find someone to blame him.
Everything needs evidence, Cheng Yuanzhi called the Yellow Turban soldiers who were on duty in the camp last night to inquire, and the result was as Jiang Xiaobai said, he really never left the camp all night.
"Could it be someone else?"
Cheng Yuanzhi looked around, his eyes swept over everyone in the tent at the moment, Jiang Xiaobai, Deputy General Deng Mao, including the two yellow scarves on duty, and of course, the little black dog brought by Jiang Xiaobai.
The little black dog lay on the ground obediently, looking harmless to humans and animals, and raised its head from time to time, revealing its big sparkling eyes.
Day 2, night.
The strange thing happened the day before, this night, the patrol team in the Yellow Turban camp was twice as large as before, and the patrols were more intense, more frequent, and less interstic.
Rao is like this, strange things still appear.
"And there's more!"
In the tent of the Chinese army, Cheng Yuanzhi's roar echoed.
In the two days before and after, a total of nearly 5,000 people lost their ordnance, and such a major event could not be concealed at all.
The 30,000 Yellow Turban Army gradually stirred, but Cheng Yuanzhi also showed his thunderous methods, forcibly suppressing public opinion and preventing further fermentation.
Anyone who discusses this matter in private will be beheaded on the spot for the crime of disturbing the morale of the army!
However, over the next two days, the strange thing continued.
People's hearts can't be suppressed, and there are several versions of the strange events that occurred in the camp.
Some people say that this is the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Tiangong general Zhang Jiao is going against the sky and is about to be retributed.
It is also said that the mysterious disappearance of the ordnance is an ominous sign, a warning from God to everyone, and a warning before the catastrophe.
There is even more outrageous, saying that Zhuo County has a dragon vein, attacking Zhuo County is to offend the Dragon God, the Dragon God is currently only a small punishment, if the Yellow Turban Army does not withdraw from Zhuo County, the next time it will not be as simple as ordnance, I am afraid that even people will disappear.
"Qu Shuai, what should we do now, if there is no way to deal with it, I am afraid it will cause a mutiny!"
In the tent of the Chinese army's camp, the atmosphere was dull, and the deputy general Deng Mao looked anxious and worried, since their 30,000 yellow scarves attacked Youzhou, they had been like a bamboo, and no one could stop their pace.
Seeing that the morale of the 30,000 Yellow Turban Army was weakened, it was about to collapse on its own before the enemy could fight.
"Pass the order, tomorrow, I will personally lead a large army to attack Zhuo County." Cheng Yuanzhi said solemnly.
At this time, the Yellow Turban Army needs a victory to stabilize the morale of the army.
Deputy General Deng Mao breathed a sigh of relief, he admired Cheng Yuanzhi very much in his heart, there is no doubt that this military order is very correct, and it no longer makes much sense to continue to investigate how the ordnance disappeared, and appeasing the morale of the army is the top priority.
In the past few days, Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao have tried their best to exhaust all methods.
Because the armament of the first two days disappeared at night, they ordered 30,000 Yellow Turban sergeants to go out day and night, sleep during the day, and be responsible for guarding the ordnance at night.
As a result, the night was fine, and the ordnance was lost during the day.
Then, the 30,000 yellow scarves took turns to rest, ensuring that the ordnance was guarded at all times, so that the ordnance was really not lost again, but the deputy general Deng Mao's weapon was lost.
In the days before and after, half of the 30,000 yellow turban ordnance mysteriously disappeared.
"This thief...... It's too much of a deception! ”
As soon as he thought that even his weapons had been stolen, Deng Mao gritted his teeth with hatred, this thief was too bold and arrogant, and he played the 30,000 Yellow Turban Army around.
Cheng Yuanzhi and Deng Mao were suspicious of Jiang Xiaobai, and they took measures against Jiang Xiaobai, not allowing Jiang Xiaobai to leave their sight, even if they went to pee, they had to follow ten Yellow Turban soldiers.
And Jiang Xiaobai is very honest and has not crossed the line at all.
"What the hell!"
Tossing and turning for days on end, everyone was exhausted.
The night was thick and black clouds were low.
In front of the tent of the Chinese military camp, a bonfire burned slowly, the flames were swallowing, and the occasional sound of branches bursting sounded.
Sitting on the steps in front of the tent, Cheng Yuanzhi carried the wine jar and drank.
"Still thinking about the loss of ordnance?"
Jiang Xiaobai walked out of the tent and sat next to Cheng Yuanzhi, he saw him looking at the bonfire in a daze, and said comfortingly: "Don't think about it, as the saying goes, the old doesn't go, the new doesn't come, it's not yours after all, it's not yours, and the twisted melon isn't sweet." ”
Gain Cheng Yuanzhi's negative energy +68......
Looking at Jiang Xiaobai, Cheng Yuanzhi handed him the wine jar in his hand, Jiang Xiaobai took it and took a sip, the degree of the wine was not high, but it was spicy in his throat.
"Shuaizhi, why did you join the army?" Cheng Yuanzhi asked suddenly.
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai thought about it carefully, and then he said seriously: "The education I received since I was a child has made me unwilling to be an ordinary person who does nothing in this era. ”
"The imperial court implements a meritorious service system, joins the army, and goes into battle to kill the enemy, maybe one day I will be able to be a general, worship the general and be a marquis, isn't it beautiful, you?"
"I just want to live."
Cheng Yuanzhi said softly: "I just want to be a flat-headed commoner, have a few acres of fertile land at home, and then ask for a mother-in-law, give birth to a son, and live with Meimei as a family." ”
"But the court does not let us live a good life, in recent years, natural disasters have continued, the fields have not been harvested, the people have long been miserable, many people have been reduced to eating weeds and gnawing bark to live, but the court is ruthless, ignoring the suffering of the people, increasing taxes every year, constantly forcing us, forcing us to a dead end, and finally there is no way, if you want to continue to live, you can only rise up."
"Have you ever eaten Guanyin soil?" Cheng Yuanzhi asked.
"Guanyin soil?"
Grabbing the soil under his feet, Cheng Yuanzhi smiled freely, and he said very easily: "Just like this kind of thing, Guanyin soil can satisfy hunger, but in the final analysis, it is still soil, in order to survive, where can the people manage these, I have eaten, many, many people have eaten, every year many people die because of eating Guanyin soil, my life is hard, and the prince of Yama does not dare to accept it." ”
As he spoke, Cheng Yuanzhi laughed self-deprecatingly.
Jiang Xiaobai listened quietly, his expression was complicated, and he didn't speak.
