Chapter 256: The Partition Wall Has Ears
Just as everyone was congratulating one by one, a figure slowly walked out of the barracks tent.
When they saw who was coming, everyone avoided it.
Because the person who came was none other than Xie Dongcheng, who is now in charge of the military camp.
Xie Dongcheng smiled at this moment.
It seems that he is happy for the triumphant return of Lord Deng now.
"Lord Deng is really powerful, and without spending a single soldier, he beat that Qin Kou to the ground."
Xie Dongcheng stepped forward and praised it directly.
Seeing Xie Dongcheng coming, everyone got out of the way.
They naturally knew what Xie Dongcheng's arrival meant.
I also know that now Xie Dongcheng is coming to congratulate Lord Deng.
But even so, when the officers and soldiers present looked at Xie Dongcheng, the expressions on their faces were a little different.
After all, it was this Xie Dongcheng who escorted General Bi back to the capital.
For them, General Bi was their savior.
If it weren't for the appearance of General Bi, I'm afraid they would have been buried in the sea a long time ago, how could they have survived until now?
But no matter what the situation is, for everyone at the moment, they don't want to offend Xie Dongcheng.
In the final analysis, Xie Dongcheng is the commander of the war this time.
Now that General Bi is gone, it means that he is the one who really has the highest control in this barracks.
There is obviously nothing to do to offend him!
For them at the moment, let alone offended, it would be good to be able to save their lives.
Now that Lord Deng can return triumphantly, it can be regarded as great news for them.
And Deng Kai, who was surrounded by everyone in the center at this moment, had a strange expression on his face.
Because when he came back, he had already said that they had lost the battle.
No matter how he explained it, no one believed his words.
In fact, in this matter, even if he were himself, he didn't want to believe in such an unscathed fiasco.
But this is the case, if it weren't for Lord Qin letting them go, I'm afraid they would have died in the sea long ago.
Now seeing Xie Dongcheng congratulating him, the expression on Deng Kai's face naturally became strange.
After just a moment of hesitation, Deng Kai knelt down directly and arched his hand.
"Lord Xie, the official is not talented, and he did not win this battle this time."
Originally, in Deng Kai's opinion, Xie Dongcheng would definitely be angry when he heard his words.
In fact, this is not the case.
Instead of getting angry, Xie Dongcheng stepped forward and directly mixed Deng Kai together, and said with a smile.
"Lord Deng, what are these words, now that you can come back unscathed with your officers and soldiers, it must be a victory, why be so humble?"
Saying that, Xie Dongcheng forcibly helped Deng Kai up.
Regarding Xie Dongcheng's words, Deng Kai didn't know how to refute for a while.
Because he couldn't find the words to refute it.
Could it be that he also said that it was because Lord Qin and they let him go?
If you say so, it will definitely be harmful, and your own subordinates will fall into a place of no return.
This also caused him to dare not tell the truth.
If he tells the truth, it is tantamount to seeking death.
If he was the only one who had his head cut off, then he would have admitted that it would be okay now, but the hundreds of officers and soldiers under him would be implicated because of this.
So at the moment he can't tell the truth.
After hesitating, Xie Dongcheng's voice sounded again.
"Lord Deng will go back first to rest and rest, and I will definitely be rewarded at this time."
Xie Dongcheng didn't give Deng Kai time to react, so he turned around and left directly.
Seeing this scene, Deng Kai didn't say much for a while.
After Xie Dongcheng left, everyone surrounded him again.
Seeing Xie Dongcheng leaving, Deng Kai didn't have the heart to continue to stay.
He returned directly to his big tent.
Not long after Deng Kai returned to the big tent, there was a sound of footsteps outside.
After a few moments, the curtain of the tent was opened.
Several figures rushed in.
After seeing the people who came, the expression on Deng Kai's face softened a lot.
Among them was Lao Zhao, who went to Dongqin Island with Deng Kai.
It's just that at this time, Lao Zhao followed behind everyone.
The person who walked in front came in front of Deng Kai and asked a little urgently.
"How? General, is he okay? ”
Hearing the words of the visitor, Deng Kai nodded.
"Great! The general is fine! ”
When everyone heard Deng Kai's words, they all showed a smile.
It's just that at this time, Deng Kai's face was full of sadness.
Seeing this, everyone also reacted, and the person who had looked at the inquiry before asked again.
"Old Deng, what's wrong with you?"
When Deng Kai heard this, his face had not changed.
"Lao Zhao should have told you, right?"
Deng Kai's words made the eyes of everyone present fall on him.
Lao Zhao saw that everyone's eyes fell on him, and hurriedly waved his hand and said.
"I'm stupid, I didn't say anything, you ask Deng Kai!"
Lao Zhao's words suddenly made everyone's eyes return to Deng Kai again.
At this moment, Deng Kai sighed heavily before he spoke.
"It's better to say less about these things in this barracks......"
Saying that, Deng Kai's eyes fell on the big tent, and he said in a low voice.
"The wall has ears ......"
His words naturally made everyone react.
didn't say anything more at the moment, but left the big tent one after another.
Before Deng Kai said this, in fact, there were really people eavesdropping outside the big tent.
Fortunately, the man did not hear the conversation in the tent before.
When the group came in, they shouted noisily, and the person could not hear what was being said.
I finally waited for the big tent to be quiet, but then I heard a sound of footsteps.
Seeing the person in the tent come out, he was so frightened that the man fled from here.
And the person who eavesdropped was none other than Xie Dongcheng's servant.
After returning to Xie Dongcheng's big tent, the servant told everything that had just happened.
Seeing that he didn't hear any useful news, Xie Dongcheng was not angry, but just waved his hand and let the servant leave.
Now in the big tent, only Xie Dongcheng is left.
Seems to be thinking about something......
……
Dongqin Island, in the stone house where the prisoners are held.
A terrible scream kept ringing out, and it was chilling to listen to.
And at this moment, the person being tortured in this stone house was none other than Xie Qingshan.
Xie Qingshan understood the meaning of Qin He's words when he left.
Sure enough, under such torture, it was impossible for him to forget.
"Come on! Don't howl like a mourner! It's all skin trauma, and it's not enough to get on your muscles and bones. ”
Li Yang, who was holding a whip in his hand, said helplessly.
