Chapter 534: Suspicion

"It's winter now, and the daily consumption of grain and grass is large, if the other party keeps standing still, do we have to spend it here all the time?"

In the camp of the commander of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, several lieutenant generals and generals quarreled in the big tent.

"It's so consumed, it's not just our grain and grass that is lost, don't the other party's soldiers and horses have to eat, let's not talk about Xichu, let's talk about the territory, they are so far away from here, they can't be the first to consume it after a long time."

"Why, if they can't consume it, we will consume it? Don't you know how long it will take to go on like this year due to many disasters and people in many places who have lost their harvest? ”

The generals were divided into two camps, one side hoped that Zhao Xuanling would send troops to annihilate the other party in one fell swoop, and the other side hoped to wait and see what happened so that the other party would not be deceitful.

Lin Mumu sat behind the curtain and listened to the deafening shout, only to feel that her ears were confused.

However, it is a problem to wear and play.

In the past two days, she also listened to Zhao Xuanling and Mingyang discuss them, he wanted to take the initiative, but on the premise of figuring out the other party's situation.

In the face of the dispute between the generals, Zhao Xuanling did not say anything, and only when they were arguing that their mouths were dry, Zhao Xuanling slowly spoke. "Find out why the territory sent troops to Western Chu?"

Mingyang hurriedly said when he heard this: "The news found by the spies is that Xichu has violated the covenant. ”

"How?"

Mingyang shook his head. "I can't find out in any more detail."

"Lord Wang, violating the covenant is violating the covenant, no matter why he violated it, these two countries have fallen out now, isn't it a good opportunity for us to attack?" The one who spoke was a nine-foot-tall deputy general with a beard on his face, and he had always hoped to take the initiative to kill the opponent without leaving a piece of armor.

"What if the other party is cheating?" Zhao Xuanling raised his eyes to look at him.

"If you fight, how are you going to fight? Hit Xichu or territory? Zhao Xuanling continued to ask.

"Let's do Xichu first, and then go to clean up the territory, just the few people in the territory, and the last general will be able to screw their heads off in one day, lord, send troops."

Zhao Xuanling frowned slightly, but did not respond.

The big tent fell silent for a while, and no one spoke.

After a long while, I heard Zhao Xuanling say in a deep voice: "You go out first, this king will think about this matter." ”

"Lord Wang, what else are you thinking, how long has it been here......" Vice General Wang was anxious when he heard this, the people in the barracks were all anxious, and he didn't know the posture and thought that he was going to fight with Zhao Xuanling.

Mingyang glanced at a general beside him, and the general stepped forward and pulled Vice General Wang away.

All the lieutenants left, and the big tent returned to its previous calm.

Lin Mumu walked out from behind the curtain and saw Zhao Xuanling sitting at the desk pondering, she didn't disturb him, but silently poured him a cup of tea.

"Don't send troops lightly." I don't know how long it took, Zhao Xuanling suddenly spoke.

Lin Mumu sat beside him. "What does the prince think?"

Zhao Xuanling shook his head. "The fact that the territory raided Western Chu is too weird, and you can't act rashly when you don't find out the truth."

Lin Mumu nodded. "That's what the prince said." If this matter is a pitfall, and the purpose is to lure Zhao Xuanling to take the initiative to send troops, then the back move designed by the other party is likely to make them make a big mistake.

Besides, after the lieutenant generals left the big tent, the generals of the main battle did not look very good.

"What's wrong with the prince, the past wars were neat, why is this mother-in-law and mother like a girl."

"Wang Maozi, you speak to me quietly, if those people with bad stomachs hear it and stab it in front of the prince, you won't be allowed to go back to the battlefield." The tall and thin Deputy General Zhang hurriedly stopped.

Vice Admiral Wang spat on the ground. "Those bastards who can't hold the knife steadily, if you dare to chew the root of your tongue behind Lao Tzu's back, I will cut his tongue."

"Eh, I said Lao Li, you persuade this Wang Maozi, this dog's temper will make him suffer sooner or later." Vice General Zhang touched Vice General Li, who had not spoken since he entered the big tent, and said.

"Lao Li, what's wrong with you? I dreamed of a girl in a building last night, look at your eyelids, I don't know and think you tossed people all night hahahaha. As soon as Vice General Zhang spoke, Vice General Wang noticed Vice General Li, who had a lot of words in the past, but today he looks like a saw-mouthed gourd.

Vice General Li, who had two blue and black circles under his eyes, looked at them with a somewhat blank expression, and his lips were buzzing several times, but in the end he didn't speak.

They are all comrades-in-arms who have worked together for many years, and the two of them feel that something is not quite right when they see him like this. "I said Lao Li, what's wrong with you? Haven't healed from the injuries you received last time? The face is too ugly. ”

"Phew, he had a small cut on his leg and stomach last time, how big of a deal can it be, Lao Li, what happened?"

"I, I don't dare to say it......" Vice General Li trembled his lips and finally spoke.

"Ha, what don't you dare to say, it's done, you be quiet, I have to listen to it, it's a big deal." 12

Vice General Li looked at the two of them, and finally made up his mind to pull them to a place where there were few people.

"What the hell is so much of a chatter?"

"I, I saw Zhao, Brother Zhao......"

"What?" When the two of them heard this, their faces changed.

However, Vice Admiral Wang quickly came back to his senses. "Your kid has always had a good relationship with Brother Zhao before his death, it's normal for you to dream of him, don't be too sad, you have no eyes on the battlefield, and when we defeat and go back, you go to his grave and put two more jars of spicy knives."

Who knows, Vice General Li shook his head vigorously, and his face turned a little pale. "No, it's not, I really saw Brother Zhao, he, he came to me!"

"You kid is really dreaming, people are dead, what do you want to do so much?"

"This, this was brought to me by Brother Zhao last night, and he said, let me send it back to my sister-in-law." Vice General Li took out a red pendant from his body, because Vice General Zhao was a general, and his body was separated from the corpse of the soldier after it was brought back, and the things on his body could not be moved until the corpse was burned, which was the rule in the barracks.

"You kid still ran to Brother Zhao to steal something!" Vice General Wang's eyes widened and he wanted to make a move.

"I, why are you so dry, is Lao Li that kind of person? What the hell is going on, Lao Li, you have made it clear. "Vice Admiral Zhang always felt that something was not right.

Vice General Li, like them, crawled out of the pile of dead people, and he was not a person who would be scared casually, but looking at his current appearance, he was obviously frightened.

"In the past two nights, Brother Zhao came to me and said that I should take this thing back to my sister-in-law, and also said that he, he would die because the prince killed the brothers who went to raid that night!"

"What are you kidding, I want to kill you!" When Vice General Wang heard this, he almost didn't punch him in the face, although he was a little displeased that Zhao Xuanling had never sent troops, but he respected Zhao Xuanling no less than anyone else.

"It's true, what did I lie to you about! This, this and him, the blood book he gave me, you, you see, you see. ”

Vice General Zhang took it over with a calm face.

On a battle robe, the names of the soldiers who died in the raid that night were written in blood, and there were big words on it: "Avenge us".

"Brother Zhao said that the prince colluded with Xichu with the intention of treason, so he was reluctant to send troops, this is intended to be consumed all the time, and wait until Xichu attacked in a big way, and then the prince deliberately lost and let the Xichu soldiers and horses capture Huizhou City, you all know, what will it mean if Huizhou City is lost?"

The words made both of them change color.

"This, how is this possible, I, I don't believe it, I never believe that the prince would do such a thing." Vice Admiral Wang shook his head and tightened his face.

"Yes, Lao Li, it must be that you have been too tired recently to even tell the difference between dreams and reality, I will find a military doctor to show you, I heard that there is a young but excellent military doctor in the military medical camp in the past few days, I will go and find him for you in a while."

Vice Admiral Lee slapped their hands away. "I'm not sick! What I say is true, why don't you believe me! If the prince is really treasonous, we will all die with him! After speaking, Vice Admiral Li pushed them away and strode away.

"Lao Zhang, you say...... Is what he said true? ”

Vice General Zhang slapped him on the head. "Bullshit, what about that kid's dreaming, you also have a problem? Let's go and practice spears. ”

When the two left together, he did not notice a figure hiding behind the big tent, he listened to the words of the three people, and after seeing the three of them leave, he turned around and quickly returned to a big tent, quickly wrote down what he heard, and sent it out with a flying pigeon.

The news sent was soon sent to Xijing, and this person was the spy planted by the Queen Mother in the barracks.

The Queen Mother looked at the news sent by the spies, and her face was extremely pale.

"The mourning family knows it, and the mourning family knows his wolf ambition!" The mourner was so angry that he slapped the coffee table "bang".

"The Queen Mother is angry."

"Anger? The country of the mourning family has been calculated, how do you let the mourning family calm their anger!? The Queen Mother was so angry that she lost her temper before she calmed down a little.

"Queen Mother, what should I do next? If the prince really colluded with Xi Chu...... The consequences are unimaginable. ”

The Queen Mother clenched the news in her hand. "The emperor is simple-minded, and it is easy to be deceived by Zhao Xuanling, this matter must not be known by the emperor, you immediately send a letter to the Xie Mansion now, and let them enter the palace to see the mourning family." The Queen Mother's eyes narrowed sharply as she spoke. "The mourning family will never allow anyone to covet the emperor's country!"

"Yes, slave and maid will go."

……

Lin Mumu returned to the barracks tent with the medicine box on his back.

Zhao Xuanling was doing an anti-layout map, and when he heard the sound, he raised his eyes and glanced at her, and with just one glance, he found that something was wrong with her.

He put away the last corner of the anti-cloth map and walked over to her and sat down. "Tired?"

Lin Mumu looked at her with her back to her senses, and her eyebrows were twisted into Sichuan characters.

Zhao Xuanling reached out and gently rubbed her frowning brows apart. "What's wrong?"
