Chapter 349: The Conspiracy Emerges
The horse returned to normal, and for a while, everyone rejoiced, and even praised Li Chuxia.
"We've been wrong about her all along."
"Yes, Lord Baili's wife, how could she do something unfavorable to us?"
There were more and more voices like this, and the deputy general hiding among the generals was a little anxious, and deliberately said: "Even if the poison is detoxified, there are many war horses sacrificed in vain, which is a lot less chance of winning for us, who are already at a disadvantage!" ”
This voice just fell into Baili Yunzheng's ears.
Such negative remarks are clearly an important reason for the instability of the military's morale! It is because of such people that the situation will be so seriously expanded!
Baili Yunzheng glared at the deputy general angrily, and snorted coldly: "In your eyes, are we relying on war horses to charge?" In that case, it's good to just let the war horse out, what else do you want to do? ”
This question was mixed with anger, and the lieutenant general was so frightened that he couldn't find a reason to refute it for a while.
The lieutenant could only clench his fists and obediently shut his mouth.
Baili Yunzheng's cold gaze swept over your adjutant general's face, "When you are in the barracks, you have to trust the decisions made by the generals, if you have two hearts, you will definitely not be able to succeed, this is a taboo in war." He snorted lightly, "In the past few days, you have been helping out in this stable, dealing with the affairs of the war horses, and by the way, think about the way of the general!" ”
Helping out in the stables?
You must know that the management of the stables is the responsibility of the logistics soldiers, and the soldiers who fight on the front line like them have a lower level than I don't know how many grades, not to mention that for him, the deputy general, it is simply humiliating!
The deputy general gritted his teeth, although he was unwilling, he could only endure it.
Now Baili Yunzheng is still their leader, if he fights him, the final result will be to be killed by him.
His patience at this time is for the future, he must be the one who has the last laugh!
Thinking of this, the deputy general hid all his anger and watched Baili Yunzheng leave with Li Chuxia and Le.
In fact, even if the deputy general didn't say anything, Baili Yunzheng could sense the seriousness of the matter.
After all, the war horsemen of the Jiangbei army are known as the division of tigers and wolves, galloping across the battlefield, which is an advantage that other countries do not have. At present, their situation is very clear, if something happens to the war horse, they are forced to the end of the mountain step by step.
I was in the stable just now, but I was just killing chickens and monkeys, and I didn't want everyone to speculate and spread my worries.
As soon as the army's morale was scattered, the Daluo Immortals could not save the defeat.
Baili Yunzheng sat in the tent and thought for a long time, when suddenly a soldier hurriedly ran into the tent and announced: "Report, a secret letter has been sent from the Jiangbei Imperial Palace." ”
Baili Yunzheng opened it, looked at it and looked at it, the expression on his face was difficult to look at all of a sudden, thinking about it, I was afraid that something big had happened.
Mu Jin waved his hand at the soldier, motioning him to step back, and then looked at Baili Yunzheng, "What happened?" ”
Baili Yunzheng lowered his eyes, "Your Majesty, you refused reinforcements." ”
Two days ago, he saw that the situation was not right, so he talked to General Ye and reported to the imperial court for reinforcements, but now he got a reply, but he refused.
He couldn't help but wonder, "These days, the court has ignored it, as if it has no intention of winning. ”
From the very beginning, Emperor Mingde's attitude towards them has always been very negative, and even let it develop, after a long time, no matter who it is, I am afraid that they will find something strange in it.
Mu Jin followed and glanced at the secret letter sent to the side, and it even said about the military order, and now, Emperor Mingde's ambition was probably revealed.
It seems that if they want to escape from danger, they still have to rely on themselves.
Baili Yunzheng and Mu Jin glanced at each other and calculated carefully......
Just when the two of them were busy with strategy, Li Chuxia was not idle, took local materials, dug up some wild vegetables, and boiled a pot of fragrant meat soup with the hares caught in the surrounding mountains and fields, and distributed them to the soldiers to eat together.
Originally, marching and fighting was a painful thing, and the soldiers in charge of cooking in logistics were a group of big men, and the food they cooked was naturally barely enough to satisfy their stomachs, but now eating the meat soup made by Li Chuxia felt more delicious than anything else.
The smell of the fragrant meat soup immediately wafted throughout the barracks, and the anxiety caused by various unexpected situations seemed to disappear at this moment.
Li Chuxia held a bowl of broth, lifted the curtain, and saw Baili Yunzheng and Mu Jin leaning on the sheepskin map in contemplation, and stepped forward and said, "It's been so long, you have worked hard, eat something." ”
Smelling the smell of soup, Mu Jin felt that his saliva was about to flow out, but seeing that Li Chuxia was only holding a bowl in his hand, he understood when he arrived, so he grinned, "I'll also go and drink the soup." ”
As he spoke, he got out of the tent.
Li Chuxia stepped forward with the bowl in his hand, saw what Baili Yunzheng was still thinking, and said softly: "Eat something first, replenish your strength, and your thinking will be clearer." ”
Thinking that what Li Chuxia said also made some sense, Baili Yunzheng thanked him, took a sip of the bowl, and the fragrant soup slid down his mouth, which was very warm.
Baili Yunzheng instantly felt that all the fatigue and troubles had disappeared, and the whole person was much more relaxed.
"The soup is delicious." The eyebrows on Baili Yunzheng's face, which had been wrinkled, finally stretched out, and a happy smile bloomed.
"You forgot, I used to make it for you every day."
Speaking of this, Baili Yunzheng obviously had a blank look on his face, which made Li Chuxia a little frustrated.
Although his feelings for Li Chuxia are still vaguely remaining in his body, he is very vague about the memories of the past. Seeing Li Chuxia's sad appearance, unconsciously, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"I'm sorry ......"
"Hey, it's okay, I'm sure you'll remember it someday." Li Chuxia raised a big smile.
"Hmm." Baili Yunzheng nodded, picked up the bowl of meat soup, and continued to drink.
Just when they were happy, the lieutenant who had been punished in the stable still couldn't bear the breath in his heart, and at this moment, a carrier pigeon suddenly landed on the back of a horse in front of him.
The carrier pigeon came from the palace, and he recognized it.
He looked around, looked around, and after making sure that no one was there, he stepped forward and grabbed the pigeon and took down the note.
Concubine Yan's order wiped out Lang Qi and Li Chuxia.
He couldn't help but laugh, just in time!
However, at the moment, Baili Yunzheng has been thinking about Li Chuxia, and if he wants to start with her, I'm afraid there will be some trouble.
Rather than this, it is better to start with Lang Qi first.
Anyway, these two people have to die first.
In the dead of night, the adjutant general came out of his tent and slipped to the edge of Lang Qi's tent, and after repeatedly confirming that there was no one else, he was about to enter, but he suddenly bumped into a group of patrolling soldiers.
"General, what are you doing here?"
"I can't sleep, so I come out and have a look." The lieutenant put his hands behind his back, looking a little unnatural.
The soldier was a little strange, but because the adjutant general was bigger than himself, he shouldn't talk much, so he could only give a few words of advice to pay attention to safety and the like, and then led the team to patrol other places.
Looking at the soldier in the distance, the adjutant general relaxed a little, and after reconfirming that there was no one else around, he quietly slipped in.
It was dark in the tent, only Lang Qi was lying on the bed, motionless.
He pulled out the dagger he was carrying and approached Lang Qi, just as the tip of the knife was about to touch Lang Qi's body, someone suddenly lifted the curtain and was startled when he saw the person next to the bed.
"Who are you?"
When the adjutant heard the voice, his heart chuckled.
Now that you've been caught, you just don't do anything! So he ignored Li Chuxia's scolding behind him, and stabbed him directly, and just at the last moment, Li Chuxia pounced and pushed him down.
He rolled on the ground twice, gritted his teeth, and could only give up temporarily, and hurriedly got up and wanted to run, but was dragged by Li Chuxia's backhand.
Crackling and falling down with a bunch of things on the side.
People outside heard the movement and rushed in.
A few torches lit up the tent in an instant, and at the same time, it also allowed Li Chuxia to see the face of the "assassin" clearly!
Is that...... Adjutant general?!
The adjutant general blushed and wanted to escape, but was caught by Li Chuxia's soldiers and tied up with hemp rope.
Li Chuxia gritted his teeth, pinched the adjutant general's face and asked coldly, "Why did you kill Lang Qi?" What is his enmity with you? ”
If it is someone else, it is understandable, but Lang Qi is a native of Northern Xinjiang, and he is not often in the army, and he rarely interacts with soldiers on weekdays, so she really can't think of any reason for the adjutant general to persecute him.
The adjutant general looked righteous and awe-inspiring, and did not panic at all, "Don't talk nonsense!" If you want to kill or chop, just do it! ”
Seeing the lieutenant general's arrogant appearance, Li Chuxia was very annoyed, but now that he was in the barracks after all, he had no real power, and he couldn't move the lieutenant general, so he could only grit his teeth and take him to see Baili Yunzheng.
At this time, Baili Yunzheng was still discussing with Mu Jin about the next battle, and suddenly heard a commotion outside, and before he could investigate, he saw Li Chuxia coming in with a deputy general.
"This person sneaked into Lang Qi's tent in the middle of the night and wanted Lang Qi's life!" Li Chuxia said indignantly, and handed the dagger that the deputy general had just taken to Baili Yunzheng.
Baili Yunzheng held the dagger and looked at the lieutenant general, "Why are you doing this?" ”
The adjutant general pretended to be innocent, shook his head and said: "I just see that he is seriously injured and want to help him cut off the polyps at the wound, otherwise, it will be easy to get infected and endanger his life." ”
These words sounded like they were for Lang Qi, but in fact, if you listen carefully, you can clearly feel that there are many loopholes.
Li Chuxia immediately retorted: "In that case, why don't you do this in the middle of the night, and wait until midnight?" ”
"I'm not a doctor, I'm afraid you won't believe me." The adjutant general lowered his eyes, "There is such a wounded person in the barracks, it will really become a drag, and I just want to do my part." ”
The adjutant general's words are high-sounding, and even if he refutes them, he can't grasp any actual handles, and he can't convict the deputy general at all.
Baili Yunzheng could only take the deputy general down for the time being, and rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly.
"What are you going to do?" Mu Jin was a little worried.
Baili Yunzheng glanced at Li Chuxia deeply, "I can only let him go first, but I won't let him go free for too long." ”
