"Where did you go last night? You can't go to the kiln, do you?"
Li Wuru was already waiting for Lin Xiao and the others at the door early in the morning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Wearing Lin Xiao's cloak, Li Wuru didn't notice that Zhou Qingqing was also there for a while.
"Huh...... Hehe...... Just kidding!"
Li ruthlessly blushed.
You must know that he can be regarded as Zhou Qingqing's imperial uncle now, and you really have to pay attention to this mouth.
"Uncle, are they up, are they up? We're ready to go back to the barracks!"
"So early?"
Li was ruthlessly stunned.
"Go back early and collect the nets, lest the fish run away!"
Lin Xiao smiled, and her words made several people inexplicable.
......
The group returned to the barracks in a hurry, the time was not yet noon, and after a night of correction, the soldiers' mental state was significantly better.
"Caught?"
In the big tent, Lin Xiao sat at the top, Ye Wuxian and Chen Chen stood on the left side, the pioneers stood on the right side, and Zhou Qingqing sat on Lin Xiao's side.
"As expected, someone really poisoned someone last night, and the target was the patio!"
Lin Yun bowed and replied, his tone full of appreciation.
"Who is it?"
Everyone somewhat understood Lin Xiao's intentions.
"Zhang Zhao!"
Lin Yun looked up and replied.
"The subordinates don't know who they know, and the subordinates have spies but don't know it, please punish the commander!"
Liu Ran walked to the center and knelt on one knee.
Zhang Zhao is the captain of his team.
"Get up!
Lin Xiao raised one hand, and a gentle force made Liu Ran stand up straight.
"Where is Zhang Zhao now?"
Lin Xiao turned his head to look at Lin Yun.
"Locked up in the quartermaster's room, guarded by a special person!"
"Let's go, let's see!"
......
"See the Commander-in-Chief!"
At the door of the quartermaster's room, Zhuo Qi and Lin Nian were separated.
Presumably, the two of them also knew that there were important people inside, so they guarded it personally.
"No need to be polite, open the door!"
"Yes......"
The huge iron door was slowly pushed open, and there was no daylight all year round, and there was a musty smell in the air in the quarterroom.
"What's going on!"
Just stepped into the door not far away, and everyone saw Zhang Zhao who fell to the ground.
"Who came in!"
Lin Yun turned his head and shouted at Lin Nian.
"I didn't ...... No one has ever come in!"
Lin Nian's face changed.
He and Zhuo Qi had been guarding the door, making sure that no one had come in.
"It's none of their business!"
Looking up at the breach in the roof, Lin Xiao waved his hand.
The quartermaster house is an important place in the barracks, so the four walls are made of molten iron, and only the top has a ventilated skylight.
Looking up, the skylight and the surrounding iron wall had been cut off a large chunk.
"One hundred secrets, one sparse ......"
Lin Yun shook his head a little ashamedly.
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Ye Wuxian stepped aside and knocked on the iron wall.
"To be able to cut down so many iron walls, the weapons of the people who come must be extraordinary!"
Ye Wuxian analyzed.
didn't reply, Lin Xiao stared at Zhang Zhao who fell to the ground with a pair of eyes.
Zhang Zhao fell to the ground on his back, a pool of blood on his back had dried up, and he had obviously been dead for a long time.
His brows furrowed slightly, Lin Xiao waved one hand, and a soft battle aura hit Zhang Zhao's back.
The clothes were all torn, and a round wound on Zhang Zhao's back went straight to his heart.
"Tell him to go down, bury Zhang Zhao on the spot, erect a monument, and tell his family where the cemetery is when he goes back!"
didn't stay in the quartermaster room for long, Lin Xiao's face was gloomy and terrifying.
"Yes!"
Zhuo Qi bowed his head and replied.
"Order the troops to pack up and continue the march!"
Clenching his fists, Lin Xiao walked towards the camp without looking back.
......
"Do you see the wound on Zhang Zhao's back?"
In the camp, Lin Xiao gathered a group of people who were absolutely trusted.
"It's a spear!"
Wu Zijun said coldly.
"In the army, the only people who use spears above the rank of captain are Cao Feng and Liu Ran...... Could it be one of them?"
Zhang Ziqian analyzed.
"No!"
Zhou Qingqing shook his head.
"I don't think so!"
Lin Xiao opened his mouth to agree.
"Why?"
Li Xin'er frowned.
"Because it's too obvious! There are many ways to extinguish the mouth, isn't it exposing yourself with a spear!"
Zhou Qingqing replied.
"We don't care who does it first, at least we can be sure now that there are still spies in the barracks, and the position is definitely not low! We have to be more careful in the future, come, you come and see!"
Lin Xiao spread the map on the table.
"Where is this?"
"It's the river!"
"Nonsense!"
Lin Xiao glanced at Ye Wuxian.
"It's Liuhe! We march at full speed, and it is estimated that we will be able to arrive in half a day!"
Zhou Qingqing replied.
"Half-day ......"
Lin Xiao lowered her head and thought about it.
"Lin Bo! Order, all the soldiers will pour out all the water and replenish it when they go to the Liuhe River!"
"Yes!"
Lin Yun turned around and walked out of the big tent.
"Didn't you catch Zhang Zhao yesterday before he was poisoned?"
Chen Chen was a little puzzled.
"Since someone can kill Zhang Zhao silently, they can go back to the patio to poison again, we don't need to gamble!"
After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he continued to point to the map.
"Look...... If we continue to take the official road, it is estimated that the time to reach Tianyi City will take a long time, but if we take the trail and pass through Feiyun Mountain, it will be much faster!"
"Walk the trail?"
Zhang Ziqian frowned slightly.
"Wouldn't that be too dangerous?"
"I decided to take the trail because I was afraid of danger!"
Lin Xiao exhaled.
"Now that it has been confirmed that there are traitors in the army, it means that some people do not want our expedition to go smoothly this time! If we continue to take the official road, then we must pass through this place!"
Lin Xiao's hand pressed heavily on the map.
"Falling Goose Valley?"
Zhou Qingqing suddenly woke up as if he had thought of something.
"That's right! Not only the Luoyan Valley, but there are many similar deep valleys along the way, and if you want to get there, you have to go down to the bottom of the deep valley, but on both sides you can go up and ambush us! In this way, the opponent can ambush us all the way at a very small price, so we simply go through the mountains and take the trail!"
Lin Xiao buckled the table.
"Half a million troops take the trail...... I'm afraid only you can think of it!"
Chen Chen shook his head.
"This is also a way to do it, I will notify you of the specific marching route temporarily, in short, you should pay more attention in the future, and focus on three people, Chu Yun, Cao Feng, and Liu Ran!"
"Why don't you keep an eye on him?"
Zhang Ziqian pointed to the willow leaves.
"Me?"
Liu Ye was stunned.
"You still don't understand, since the commander called me here, it means that I can absolutely trust it!"
Willow patted her chest.
"Okay, now is not the time to fight! Let's go and prepare, step up the march, I don't know what the situation is on the other side of the border, we can't delay any longer!"
Putting away the map, Lin Xiao waved his hand at everyone.
