Chapter 51 Murder with a knife
In the early morning of the second day, as soon as the sky was bright, there was a noisy sound in the barracks, Lu Zhao opened his eyes when he heard the sound, he subconsciously looked to the side, and found that Yu Zhang and Chu Nanxun were still asleep, he hurriedly got dressed and came to the courtyard, but found that the camp tent not far away was already full of a group of people.
This place seems to be the place where the Hun envoy was imprisoned yesterday, could it be that something happened?
Lu Zhao squeezed into the crowd and found that the door of the tent was full of blood, and the Hun envoy fell in a pool of blood, his eyes widening.
"What's going on?" Cao Tianque hurriedly came, and when he saw the Xiongnu envoy who fell in a pool of blood, he couldn't help frowning: "Who did it!" ”
No one answered, Cao Tianque turned around and glared at the noon soldier: "Who did it?" ”
There was still silence, and a patrol soldier cautiously walked up to Cao Tianque and knelt down on one knee: "Report to the general, the subordinate patrolled and smelled the blood and came over to take a look, but I didn't want to see this scene." ”
"Who was the caretaker yesterday?"
"Report to the general, the guards have ......," the patrolman glanced to the side, and the eyes of the crowd widened as they followed his gaze.
The bodies of the guards were gone, and only their heads were left in the snow, covered in snow.
The sense of foreboding in Cao Tianque's heart became more and more serious, and he thought that he should already know what this Ge Tianyuan was going to do by now.
"Someone, go and inform the old general."
"Yes!" The patrol soldier hurriedly got up and ran towards Cao Xianye's tent, Lu Zhao stared at the corpse and frowned slightly, and unconsciously stepped forward.
"Lu Zhao, what are you going to do?" Cao Tianque wanted to stop Lu Zhao but found that he actually squatted down to examine the body, could it be that this kid is still proficient in the method of autopsy?
Seeing that Lu Zhao stepped forward and wanted to pull him back, but was stopped by Cao Tianque, he walked to Lu Zhao's side and leaned down and asked softly, "Are you proficient in the method of autopsy?" ”
Lu Zhao shook his head: "No, my subordinates just hunt all year round and have some research on the wounds caused by various blades." ”
"And what do you see?"
Lu Zhao flipped the Hun envoy and found that there was a deep scar on the other party's chest, and he stared at the traces of the scar for a long time.
"If the general's subordinates are not mistaken, this person is a master of using a knife, and this wound is not caused by the knives of the Han people, it is more like the kind of scimitar commonly used by the Huns, but it is ......"
"But how?"
"However, although this person is a master of using knives, it can be seen that this person should not be familiar with scimitars, so it will cause such a wound."
Cao Tianque looked at the wound as Lu Zhao pointed out, and sure enough, as Lu Zhao said, although the wound was caused by a scimitar, it was still a little different.
Cao Tianque has been on the battlefield for a long time and can be said to be very familiar with the wound caused by the scimitar, this Hun envoy was killed by a knife, and the blade was cold, it must have been done by a master, but this master was ......
The two glanced at each other and understood what they wanted to say, the person who killed the person should not be the Huns but the Han, that is to say, there was a traitor in the barracks.
But now it is obvious that it is not the time to pursue this traitor, Ge Tianyuan should have a bigger plan brewing like this.
"Come and let go, General Cao is here."
The soldiers got out of the way, and Cao Xianye was slightly startled when he saw the corpse, but he quickly regained his composure, at least he knew what Ge Tianyuan wanted to do.
"General, we ......"
"Don't make a noise yet, wait and see, I want to see how big a wave this girl can make."
Ge Tianyuan had already seen all this when he was hiding in the shadows, and sure enough, this old general was as mature and stable as rumored and not an ordinary person, but how long his life could last at this time was really not certain.
Because of the special nature of this matter, Cao Xianye ordered everyone in the army not to leak the slightest rumor about this matter, otherwise it would be dealt with by military law.
The soldiers present all bowed their heads in response, Lu Zhao looked at the crowd but found that Yu Zhan was not in the queue, could it be ......
A bad premonition surged in Lu Zhao's heart, but he quickly dispelled such thoughts, which was absolutely impossible.
After the restlessness was over, Cao Tianque returned to his tent but unexpectedly found that the girl had woken up at some point, and it should be okay to see her ruddy complexion.
"Is the girl in good health?"
"Thanks to the general, the little woman is in good health."
"So good, very good!" Cao Tianque replied, somehow there was a trace of loneliness in his heart, he carefully looked at the girl's side face, and suddenly the girl moved, Cao Tianque hurriedly avoided his eyes for fear of seeing the other party.
"I, since you are in good health, I will send someone to send you back to your residence, come here!" Cao Tianque gave an order, and the two guards entered the door: "What does the general command?"
"You two send this girl back to your quarters, and remember to keep her safe."
"Yes!" The two guards leaned down to receive the order, and Ge Tianyuan couldn't shirk it when she saw this, and what she was going to do had already been done last night, and there was no need to continue to stay in this place.
So she slowly got up and bowed to Cao Tianque: "Thank you for your concern, there are two military masters." ”
Looking at the back of the woman leaving, Cao Tianque's heart suddenly raised an inexplicable sense of loss, this feeling has never appeared, could it be that he ...... this woman
Outside the barracks, there was no longer yesterday's hustle and bustle, as if someone had leaked the news that there was an invasion of the Huns in the city, and the traders closed their doors one after another, and even those wandering traders who called to buy were much less.
Ge Tianyuan looked at this depressed scenery, and felt a sense of loss in her heart, but now that the country is in danger, how can she have such scruples in this position?
"Girl, where do you live?"
"It's not far away, just ahead, and there are two Lao."
Ge Tianyuan pointed to a post house not far away, and the two soldiers walked beside her one after the other, alert to the dangers around her.
The three of them soon came to a narrow alley, after this narrow alley is Ge Tianyu's residence, she looked at the two soldiers beside her, she clenched the hidden weapon in her sleeve and calculated how to kill these two, somehow she suddenly remembered that she fainted yesterday Cao Tianque's extremely nervous face.
That face reminded her of her childhood sweetheart's playmate, but he had already died under the knife of the Han people!
Thinking like this, Ge Tianyuan subconsciously grabbed her hand, but that face had been entrenched in her mind, which had seriously interfered with her judgment.
"Is this the girl?" The soldier's words made Ge Tianyuan sober up, and looked at the patrol not far away, Ge Tianyuan knew that there was no chance.
"That's right, this is the place, thank you two military masters, come here to take it." As she spoke, she took out two coins from her arms and handed them over: "The two of you work hard to get some wine and food for the two." ”
The two soldiers looked at each other: "Girl, we don't want this money, the general will punish him if he knows it." ”
"Wouldn't it be nice if you would take him with you?"
The two soldiers looked at Ge Tianyuan, who smiled slightly and raised his hand to stuff the money into the soldier's hand: "Thank you for me, general." ”
The soldier looked at the money in his hand and then at the humble beauty in front of him, he suddenly understood what was going on, and hurriedly leaned over and thanked him: "Then thank you girl for your kindness." ”
