Chapter 111: Undercurrent

"How's it going, it's okay!" Liu Fa wiped the blood on his hands and walked to Qing Yunfei's side, at this moment, Qing Yunfei was already a little prostrate.

In fact, Liu Fa was also like a broken shelf, sleepless all night, highly concentrated, one accidentally would be killed, and Rao is iron body bones can't bear it.

Qing Yunfei shook his head, he was speechless at this time, he was just panting deeply, the cold dew on his body was gone, only the hot blood and hot sweat were still steaming.

Looking at the weak Qing Yunfei, Liu Fa patted him on the shoulder, and then said softly: "Brother, I've worked hard for you!" ”

Liu Fa stood up again, looked at the tired soldiers, and said loudly: "Brothers, thank you for your hard work!" ”

There is such an admit, although these soldiers are physically and mentally exhausted, but they still straighten their backs, they are like a mountain of men, iron men who cannot be defeated.

Qing Yunfei glanced at Liu Fa and smiled reluctantly, Liu Fa asked Qing Yunfei to help him up, and the scouts were sent out to investigate the situation nearby, and there was no movement for the time being, but Liu Fa didn't dare to sit here for too long.

In contrast, it is more prudent to turn back to the lonely mountain, after all, the lonely mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if there are many enemies faced, you can deal with one or two, not to mention, behind the lonely mountain is a continuous group of mountains, retreat to this group of mountains, not to mention the number of hundreds of thousands, it is a team of tens of thousands of people, and it is impossible to easily find out the willow felling.

Liu Fa asked his soldiers to repair here for a while, tired all night, although it was urgent, he did not dare to rush back to the camp, the brothers and puppets were really tired enough, he asked his soldiers to take turns to investigate the surrounding situation, after all, there are a lot of barbarians here, and last night was also because of the late withdrawal, otherwise someone would not have so many accidents, it is really dangerous here, maybe a group of barbarians will emerge somewhere.

After a while, the sky was already bright, and then there was a clear blue sky. Last night, I was thinking about a quick solution, but I never thought that such a thing would happen. However, the soldiers still carried two or three days' rations with them in case of emergency.

Bury pots to make rice, with 100 households as a unit, and bury two pots for every 100 households. After Liu Fa gave the order, his soldiers took out a sufficient amount of rice and dried meat from their backpacks, handed them over to the rear camp firehead army, and cooked in the pot.

Soon, several cauldrons were carried out, and smoke rose from the mountain, and the smell of the food soon made the tired and hungry soldiers drool, and in a short time everyone was already eating.

In this place full of blood and corpses, this smell seems very incongruous, but no one cares about these foods in their mouths, and the soldiers' hearts are happy again, although overnight, there are countless Pao Ze brothers who died silently in front of their eyes, but life and death, no one can do anything.

Hearing the bursts of laughter around him, Liu Fa was also a little more relaxed, after Qing Yunfei saw the meal, he became alive again, and several large pieces of meat had been stuffed into his stomach, eating a mouth full of oil, Liu Fa saw Qing Yunfei's way of eating, he also laughed, he couldn't be happy, and then looked at Xin He on the side, holding a knife, carefully dividing a piece of meat in his hand, extremely serious and serious. Seeing how these two people were eating, Liu Fa suddenly felt full.

He put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he didn't know what was going on, he always felt as if something was going to happen, his intuition was always very accurate.

"Uh" Qing Yunfei hiccuped comfortably, stuffed a little meat residue between his teeth, and smiled at Xin He, Xin He immediately stopped his chopsticks, felt very awkward, sighed again, looked at Liu Fan's back, and then turned around and said casually: "It seems that you have a bitter hatred for us Han people, right!" ”

Qing Yunfei was stunned for a moment, and then said seriously: "How do you say this, we are brothers who eat together, and we have a lifelong friendship!" ”

Xin He rolled his eyes and said lazily: "What, my living room is clear, what killed all the Han people, killed all the Han people, I heard that I was creepy."

Qingyunfei is not stupid, he was not particularly late when he spoke last night, and when he heard Xin He say this, he immediately understood: "What, you came at that time, didn't you go to guard the camp?" ”

"I'm afraid that something will happen, so I brought my brothers money to answer, and the general said that you might be in danger, so I came right away, and as soon as I got there, I saw that you were talking happily with that group of barbarians!" Xin He sighed, laughing a little weirdly.

Qing Yunfei touched his head, looked at the corpse not far away, and sighed: "What, if I hadn't hidden it from them, it is estimated that last night, not only would I die, but even you would have been caught up at all."

Just as Qing Yunfei and Xin He were talking about this, Liu Fa suddenly turned around, grabbed Qing Yunfei, and then became serious: "Qing Yunfei, last night, you met a group of Han soldiers, right?" ”

Qing Yunfei was pulled by Liu Fa like this, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and thought: "Last night, I originally wanted to fool this group of barbarians first, so as not to let them catch up with the army, but there were no traces of the march at all where I took them, if it weren't for the dark sky, I guess I would have had an accident a long time ago."

He stopped suddenly, then raised his head suddenly, and his whole person became serious: "By the way, I met a person yesterday, he is very similar to one of our previous enemies, but I am not sure if it is him?" ”

"Who?"

Qing Yunfei said word by word: "An Qiusheng!" ”

Liu Fan's eyes were like lightning, and he glanced at Qing Yunfei, and saw that there was nothing unusual in his eyes, but a haze on his face. Liu Fa frowned, looked at Xin He again, and said in a deep voice, "What do you think?" ”

Xin He shook his head, and then looked at Qing Yunfei again: "How did you meet An Qiusheng?" ”

Qing Yunfei suddenly laughed: "Speaking of which, it's really funny, do you say it's a coincidence?" I led this group of barbarians to fool them in the opposite direction from you, and I was about to arouse their suspicions, but at this moment, this guy bumped into me, and I heard him constantly shouting from a distance that he was going to kill the general, haha"

Speaking of this, his face changed again, he also saw that Liu Fa and Xin He's faces were very ugly, Liu Fa lowered his head, walked over to the side, and said firmly: "It seems that they came prepared, not to mention whether he is An Qiusheng or not, but he knows our whereabouts, and even he knows the specific location of our location, otherwise he will not collide with you." ”

Speaking of which, the three of them all knew that the situation was not very good, and they were under the noses of another group of people, and the most important thing was that they seemed to be friends and enemies with themselves.

"It's really dangerous, if it weren't for me and this group of barbarians to destroy them, if we were really caught up by this group of Han troops, we would be really dangerous!" Qing Yunfei was silent for a long time, and then wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Otherwise, I'm afraid we'll be happy too soon!" Xin He seemed to have thought of something, and his face became even more ugly.

Liu Fa suddenly stood up and shouted: "Scout ahead to open the road, quickly, the whole army will pull out, turn back to the lonely mountain, dare to have those who are sloppy, the military law is ruthless!" Liu Fa looked coldly at the army in front of him, his eyes cold.

The soldiers were stunned at first, and then immediately assembled, but tea, the army has begun to march towards the lonely mountain, the mountain road is difficult, Liu Fa is riding on a horse, his face is full of worry, at this time he is most worried about Jiang Baiyan, not to mention that there are many injured brothers on the lonely mountain, more important is grain and grass, there is a lot of grain and grass on the mountain, if something happens, Liu Fa is really unimaginable

Wearing the stars and the moon, Liu Fan's heart has already flown to the lonely mountain, and the army is moving forward nervously, although everyone doesn't understand why Liu Fan suddenly seems to have changed as a person, but no one has a grudge in their hearts, all they know is obedience.

At this time, the lonely mountain was scorched, and the camp no longer had the appearance of a big camp, but there was not a single corpse in sight, let alone a single figure, as if it was just a fire here.

"How so?" Liu Fa jumped off his horse, frowning. He was already on the lonely mountain, listening to the scout's report, there was no figure within a radius of dozens of miles, and there was no trace of a fight, only the camp tent that was burned and could not be seen clearly, and the gate had become a pile of charcoal.

"General, this" Xin He stepped aside, wanting to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

The autumn wind blew, vaguely and a little pungent, many people coughed gently, but Liu Fa fell into deep thought, for no other reason, there is no trace of the battle of the army here, and there is no smell of blood, only the scorched earth can be seen, which is really strange.

"Tell the word to go down and camp here!" Liu Fa touched his nose, and then said to Qingyun Fei.

The terrain of the lonely mountain is complicated, and if it is attacked, even if it is a team of thousands of people, it will be difficult to attack the mountain for a while, let alone break the camp unscathed.

Still want to find Jiang Baiyan, Liu Fa was very worried in his heart, and with an order, the army quickly moved, but after a while, the big camp had the appearance of a big camp again, and Xin He also continued to send people, while arranging the dark outpost, he was also looking for Jiang Baiyan, but the mountains were continuous, and it was so easy to find a few hundred people.

The days are getting shorter and shorter, the nights are getting longer and longer, and although the weather is cold, the clothes and armor worn by the soldiers can be slightly covered.

"General!"

A figure slowly appeared in the shadow of the tree, and he jumped down, then knelt on one knee again, looking at Liu Fa. This is a dark whistle, Liu Fan saw him, nodded, waved his hand slightly, and the man was hidden in the night again.

"For these brothers, the armor must be thicker, the weather is getting colder and colder." Liu Fa stopped, sighed in a low voice, nodded coldly, like a shadow, and continued to follow Liu Fa, silently not speaking.

Moon, bright.

It's been a long time since I left the South Prison, and before I knew it, it was already a full moon, and occasionally, Liu Fa would remember that there was such a person in the South Prison, waiting for him, and there was a kid, I don't know if there was hard practice.

There is also a woman, in the imperial capital with many pavilions, is she okay?

"General, General"

A voice woke Liu Fa up, Liu Fa turned his head, and when he saw it, it was Xin He, Liu Fa left everything behind and stopped thinking about those trivial things.

"What's wrong?"

Liu Fa saw that Xin He's face was not very good-looking, and said suspiciously as he walked towards the camp.

Xin He frowned, opened his mouth from time to time, and swallowed the words again, Liu Fa became more and more strange, and he was a little impatient in his heart, so he asked: "If there is anything, you can say it directly!" ”

"There is not enough food and grass in the army, and after tomorrow, I will have nothing to eat, and when the time comes, I'm afraid it is"

Liu Fa's heart sank, knowing that this was the truth, nodded, and asked, "What about other than that?" ”

Xin He glanced around, and said in a low voice: "There seems to be something wrong in the army, there may be some soldiers whose identities are unknown. ”

Liu Fa was not surprised, in fact, he could already guess what the problem was, the last time Liu Xiaolong was inexplicably assassinated in the Chongcheng camp, although Xin He found out afterwards that it was someone arranged by Qin Tianzhao, but he didn't care about it at the time, and he didn't deal with it as a big deal.

But this time, Qing Yunfei first said that there was a person who was exactly the same as An Qiusheng, and then they came to kill themselves, if it weren't for Qing Yunfei and that group of barbarians, maybe they would have been in a different place a long time ago.

Let's talk about Jiang Baiyan again, Jiang Baiyan is also missing now, and the Lonely Mountain Camp was burned beyond recognition, presumably, it must have also been attacked.

"Someone is secretly tipping off the enemy, and they're in our army!" Liu Fa came to a serious conclusion.

Qing Yunfei lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "My brothers are absolutely trustworthy, one is that they rarely go out of the camp, most of the time they are in the army, and second, we don't get along with the Han people very well, that is, with the brothers in the camp, and Qin Tianzhao We have also had many conflicts, and we will definitely not be in cahoots with Qin Tianzhao, I believe this kind of thing must not be done by my brothers." ”

Liu Fa nodded, and looked at Xin He again, he believed that the barbarian warriors under Qing Yunfei would definitely be much more loyal to him than the more than seven hundred Southern Prison Army. After these several expeditions, many of the more than 300 warriors died tragically under the enemy's sword, and Liu Fa was unwilling to doubt them.

"Last time, how did you catch the person who killed Liu Xiaolong?" Liu Fa was silent for a long time, and then asked Xin He again.

Now there is no way to investigate Liu Felling, and now there are not many soldiers gathered on the lonely mountain, and now the grain and grass are exhausted, if this matter is investigated again, maybe the soldiers under his command will mutiny.

Xin He lowered his head and began to think about the events of that day.

Liu Xiaolong just shouted out a willow word, and then a dagger flew out of the crowd, straight into Liu Xiaolong's throat, Liu Xiaolong also died tragically on the spot, although the murderer's knife was not slow, but Liu Fa and the three of them saw clearly on the high platform, the murderer was no different from the clothes of other soldiers, but who Xin He was, his vision did not need to be said.

"General, I remembered, that murderer was Gao Yong, Zhang Lang's first battalion, but he didn't confess anything at the beginning, that person is good, compared to Bawei, he is not bad, when I caught him, he immediately committed suicide by poisoning."

When Xin He said this, he paused again, and said: "It's not that I don't agree with General Jiang, although I am a superintendent, but I rarely interfere in the Southern Prison Army, although the Southern Prison Army has a good relationship with the brothers under Qing Yunfei, but now it can be regarded as a faction of its own." It is also because of Jiang Baiyan, we didn't move much under Zhang Lang and Gao Yong, but I was afraid that it would chill the hearts of the brothers, if this matter really had to be investigated, I was afraid that Jiang Baiyan would have to do it, but now, alas"

Liu Fa sighed, and then walked out of the camp, looking at some soldiers who were on vigil, gathered in front of the fire, a little trembling, Liu Fa was full of haze, eventful!

In the dead of night, Liu Fa couldn't sleep for a long time, the wind gradually became a little stronger, blowing Liu Fa's sideburns, and the long hair covered up Liu Fa's sorrow, in the middle of the night, I don't know who else couldn't sleep on the moon.

"Drain and Drain"

A few leaves were almost knocked over by the raindrops, falling to the ground, stained with a trace of dust throbbing, floating dust and the smell of earth, delicate at first, and then gradually dense, listening to the wind and rain in the night, Liu Fa sighed again, the heavy rain may cover some traces, but it will be delayed a lot, grain and grass, grain and grass

The snoring had started, and unconsciously, Liu Fa closed his eyes, and Han Ju silently came out of the darkness, put a thin quilt on Liu Fa, and then disappeared again.

He frowned, and slept not very soundly.

In the South Prison, a woman in a red dress sat quietly under the lampstand, embroidering another beautiful picture, although her stitches were not so fine, but she was very serious, and suddenly she thought of something, and she was a little stupid for a while, and her cheeks were slightly red.

"Ahh

There was a tingling pain, and then she noticed that blood was dripping from her fingertips, and the blood was dripping to the satin IQ, she hurriedly lifted it, looked at it again, sighed in a low voice, and was very distressed, and then threw it down, and after a while, she held it in her hand again, as if she was happy and sad

"Well, I don't know how long this rain will be?"

Xin He sat beside Liu Fa with a sad face, in such weather, it was extremely difficult to march, not to mention that this was the South Prison, this season, it was the season of flash floods, but there was not much food and grass, and he couldn't let his brothers go hungry.

Liu Fa didn't speak, just looked into the distance, as if waiting for something

The heavy rain fell all night, until noon still did not stop, this kind of weather, cold and abnormal, not to say that people, even the horses are sleepy, heating firewood can not be used, water vapor soaked through the wood, this fire is a thick black smoke, extremely choking.

"Ahem"

Liu Fa's face was not very good, but his lips were a little pale, Xin He glanced at Liu Fa, and could already guess that Liu Fa was infected with the wind cold, if it wasn't for his strong physique, I am afraid that he would have fallen ill at this time.

The mountain road is muddy, and stepping on it is a deep footprint, stuck in the mud, very unpleasant, Qing Yunfei walked towards the camp from afar in his robe, his trouser legs had already been rolled up high, but at this time there was still some mud on his face.
