Rebirth of a Star General

Chapter 115 Ruthless people

explain? How can this be explained?

The situation at that time was critical, and He Yan was locked in the dungeon. Guessing that at this time, the other party would probably make a move. He asked Song Taotao to find a pen and paper and wrote a letter to Shen Han.

A map of Liangzhou Wei was drawn on the letter. He Yan stayed in Liangzhou Wei for more than half a year, and the map was also detailed. She guessed that the other party would come from the Wulu River. It was suggested that Shen Han should send hundreds to a thousand crossbowmen to hide in the deep forests of the Wulu River to the Liangzhou Guard Station.

"At that time, I was framed for murder and sent to the dungeon." He Yan thought for a while, and then explained: "Although others don't believe me, I always feel that the other party's plans are not small. You are not here, the Governor, I really want someone In case, Liangzhou Wei would be in danger. So I drew such a picture and asked Miss Song to give it to Teacher Shen for me. However, I was not sure at the time that Teacher Shen would do what I said. It’s just death Horses are used as living horse doctors."

Although Shen Han refused to believe that it was about Liangzhou Wei, he was cautious after all. According to what He Yan said, people were ambushed in the depths of the jungle. It was only when Damuzi's men came to the Yanwu Arena that they were ambushed, and they were already at a disadvantage by the shore, and their morale was hit.

Xiao Jue raised his eyes: "Why the shore?"

"The small enemy traps it. If you catch a thief, you will close the door, not for fear of his escape, but for others to gain it."

He laughed, "You learned the art of war well, but what happened to the granary?"

"Behind the Liangzhou Guard is Baiyue Mountain, and it is close to the Wulu River. One road is the way for the Governor and you to go out, and further ahead is the way to enter the city. I guess the other party's plans are not small, and one Liangzhou Guard may not be enough. If Bring us into the opponent's position, the first thing to do is to burn the granary. The recruits of Liangzhou Guard have no supplies and can't hold on for long. Either they are trapped here, or they enter the city. Once the city gate is opened, the enemy troops After entering the city, Liangzhou City can no longer be defended. So I told Teacher Shen in the letter that people should hide in the dark and guard the granary to prevent anyone from setting fire."

In fact, Zida Muzi did send someone to set the fire, but it was taken down by Liangzhou recruits who had been prepared for a long time.

"You guessed it right." Xiao Jue spoke slowly, leaned forward, approached her, and stared into her eyes, "It's a no-brainer, little girl."

His pupils were deep and quiet, as clear as autumn water, He Yan looked a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't answer those words. The reason why she can count on the last resort is because she has learned countless times about the behavior of the Qiang people who burn the granary when they come up. As long as it is determined that the other party is a Qiang, it is natural to know what they will do next.

But she couldn't say this to Xiao Jue.

"You know a lot, your father taught you the art of war at home?" he asked with hooked lips.

He Yan knew that this person had become suspicious, and simply said nonsense: "That's not true. I learned it all by myself. Don't the Governor think I'm a born general?"

He sneered: "The liar is lying again, isn't it?"

"The governor suspects that I'm a liar, so I have to show evidence anyway." He Yan became more courageous, "If you suspect Lei Hou, put Lei Hou in the forward camp, and finally let Lei Hou reveal his fault. You suspect that there is something wrong with me. , just put me beside me. My room with the governor is only separated by a wall. It stands to reason that if there is something wrong with me, the governor will find it easier. But until now, except for the fact that I am a woman, nothing has happened. The governor said so, just Some are so unreasonable."

Xiao Jue laughed angrily at her: "I'm unreasonable?"

"The Governor has kept me by his side for so long, besides discovering my loyalty, agility, bravery, and wisdom, what else did he discover? Nothing." He Yan spread his hands, "As a leader, you should be rewarded and punished clearly. It also solved the crisis of Liangzhou Guard and made a merit, shouldn't the Governor reward me?"

"Reward?" He asked slowly: "What reward do you want?"

He Yan sat up straighter and leaned closer to him, staring at him with bright eyes and said, "Can I go to the Nine Banners Camp?"

"Can't."

He Yan: "Why?"

"The Nine Banners Battalion does not accept liars who are full of lies." He replied indifferently.

"I'm not lying!"

"Miss He," he stared at her with beautiful eyes, and suddenly curved his lips, "Although I don't know what you are hiding," he paused before saying, "One day, your secret will be revealed. open."

He Yan's heart skipped a beat, but he forgot to answer.

He stood up and walked out, He Yan hurriedly said, "Then, what about Hu Yuanzhong?"

Xiao Jue didn't stop, left the word "dead" and went out the door.

He Yan was startled, dead?

...

When Xiao Jue went out, Lin Shuanghe had already disappeared. Only Fei Nu stayed outside, Xiao Jue asked, "Where did Lin Shuanghe go?"

"Dr. Lin said to go to Miss Shen's place to help dispense some medicine." Fei Nu replied, "The recruits who died in the battle of Liangzhou Guard have been settled."

The recruits who died in battle will be buried at the foot of Baiyue Mountain. Before these young lives could experience a real fight, they were slaughtered under the knife in the dark.

Xiao Jue pinched his forehead.

After receiving the news from Zhangtai, he immediately set off for Zhangtai, but only halfway through, he realized that something was wrong. He secretly contacted the battalion commander of the Nine Banners Battalion and learned that Zhangtai was indeed harassed by the Uto people, but it was not as serious as the letter said. In the middle of the journey, he turned his horse's head and sent over some of the Nanfu soldiers stationed in Gyeongnam.

The other party must have come to Liangzhou Wei, or rather, to him.

Now that he has just taken over Liangzhou Guard, if Liangzhou Guard goes wrong in Xiao Jue's hands, His Majesty must have a reasonable reason to take back the military power. Those ministers in the court who are dissatisfied with him can fall into the trap, and he, as a commander, can't do it long.

"Those Western Qiang people..."

"It's not from Xiqiang," Xiao Jue interrupted Fei Nu: "It's from Utuo."

Fei Nu was stunned.

"Except for Zida Muzi and his cronies, who are Qiang people, the others are Utuo people."

Fei Nu asked, "Murder with a knife?"

"Kill me." He chuckled, turned around and said, "Let Shen Han and all the instructors come to my room."

...

He Yan rested for a while after Xiao Jue left, and Song Taotao, Cheng Lisu and Shen Muxue came.

The two children each brought a large basket of food. Because the Qiang people had just arrived, the Liangzhou Guard was heavily guarded, and they could not enter the city. Therefore, there was no good food in the restaurant. But there are also steamed pork in fish soup. Song Taotao ran to He Yan and asked her, "Are you feeling better?"

"Not bad." He Yan smiled and said, "I asked you to ask Teacher Shen for help before, thank you very much."

The little girl rarely felt a hint of embarrassment, and she was coy for a while: "It's nothing, you were all in prison at the time. And ... you also saved me, we are even."

"When did my eldest brother save you?" Cheng Lisu asked suspiciously, not knowing that Song Taotao had been kidnapped by Sun Ling in Liangzhou City.

"It's a secret, why tell you?" Song Taotao didn't look good when he treated Cheng Lisu.

"That's my big brother! Of course I have the right to know, why are you hiding it from me?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Shen Muxue shook her head helplessly, and only said to He Yan, "Brother He, I was the one who blamed you before."

She was talking about Hu Yuanzhong.

"It's nothing," He Yan said, "they even hid it from the instructors, it's normal to hid you. And Miss Shen was so eager to save people at the time, she couldn't think so much. By the way," she thought of something, "I I heard from Governor Xiao, Hu Yuanzhong is dead?"

Shen Muxue nodded: "That Hu Yuanzhong wanted to kidnap me when Ridamuzi appeared. Later, the governor came back, and the governor's guard fought against him. This man died under the guard's hands."

"I knew he was going to die, why bother to save him and waste the medicinal materials." Cheng Lisu muttered.

He Yan thought to himself, that Hu Yuanzhong really liked Shen Muxue's beauty, the thief's heart is not dead, the two armies are fighting, and he wants to take advantage of the chaos to kidnap people, his heart can be punished.

"Brother He," Shen Muxue looked at her and asked earnestly, "I've always wondered, why did you suspect that there was something wrong with Hu Yuan at that time?"

And every doubt is accurate. After all, Hu Yuanzhong was keeping his guard in Liangzhou Weili at that time. Even though Mai and the others got He Yan's orders, they stared at Hu Yuanzhong every day, but they didn't see anything wrong with Hu Yuanzhong.

He Yan couldn't say that it was because of the rash on Hu Yuanzhong's hand, it seemed that she was very familiar with the Qiang people.

"Paper?" Shen Muxue was taken aback for a moment: "A relic left to him by Hu Yuanzhong's deceased wife?"

"Not bad." He Yan said, "You are all moved by his affection, but such a affectionate person would never look at you with that kind of eyes."

"What kind of eyes?" Shen Muxue was puzzled.

He Yan scratched his head: "That's the kind of eyes a man looks at a woman."

She thought, Shen Muxue is a girl after all, with a thin skin, if she said "salivation", it would inevitably embarrass her. Let's put it another euphemism.

But this girl Shen is not an ordinary girl, she was not shy when she heard the words, she just asked curiously, "How did you see it?"

"Me?" This question made He Yan a little embarrassed. She said, "I've been paying attention to Miss Shen."

Shen Muxue frowned. Seeing that the situation was not good, Song Taotao on the side hurriedly stepped forward to block He Yan's gaze at Shen Muxue, and casually picked up the water cup beside him and handed it to He Yan: "Brother He, drink water."

He Yan: "...Thank you."

As he was talking, he remembered the laughter of people outside, and when he looked back, it was Lin Shuanghe who had gone and returned. He waved his folding fan in the winter, approached gracefully, and said with a gentle smile: "I said why it's so lively, so they all stay here."

"Uncle Lin." Cheng Lisu shouted

Lin Shuanghe and Xiao Jue are about the same age, Cheng Lisu and Lin Shuanghe are not too different, but because they called Xiao Jue "uncle", they also called Lin Shuanghe "uncle". However, Lin Shuanghe was probably not satisfied with the title, and his smile choked, not as smooth as before.

Shen Muxue got up: "Young Master Lin."

"Miss Shen, I just came from the hospital. Several recruits woke up and were screaming that their wounds hurt. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Shen Muxue was startled: "Really?" Then she looked at He Yan and said, "Brother He, I'll go to the medical center to see, do you feel any discomfort now?"

"No, no." Before He Yan could answer, Song Taotao spoke first. She glanced at Shen Muxue as if facing an enemy, "If you want anything, Young Master Lin will show him here."

"Didn't Uncle Lin only heal women?" Cheng Lisu asked curiously.

"Cough," Lin Shuanghe closed his fan: "Occasionally, exceptions can be made."

"In that case, then I'll go first." Shen Muxue bowed to the crowd and turned to leave the house.

Song Taotao breathed a sigh of relief.

He Yan: "..."

She had a headache, and she didn't know what to do. Lin Shuanghe was a good person, so he probably saw her embarrassment, so he said to Song Taotao and Cheng Lisu: "I'm going to look at the wound for your brother He now, and after reading it, She needs to rest, you two, it's better not to disturb here."

"Have a rest again?" Cheng Lisu asked, "We just met him, and it's not even a cup of tea. I still have something to say to Brother He."

"Then we will have to wait for your brother He to recover." Lin Shuanghe supported him by the shoulders and pushed him out the door, "Do you want to watch him linger on the sickbed and be sick?"

Song Taotao looked back at He Yan, He Yan was unable to hold her forehead, she bit her lip, and pulled Cheng Lisu out: "In that case, don't disturb him, let him rest more, we will come back tomorrow. "

Cheng Lisu said, "Just talk, what are you pulling me for?"

Song Taotao: "Do you think I really want to touch you?"

The two children walked away noisily, and Lin Shuanghe closed the door.

He Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Shuanghe is really good. After so many years, his ability to observe words and expressions is still top-notch. No wonder he was very popular when he was in Xianchang Pavilion. He Yan couldn't help but thank him in the bottom of his heart for being able to think about what people think and worry about people's worries.

"Sister, you are really amazing," Lin Shuanghe walked over with a smile on his fan and said, "It's all worth it, and it's amazing that the girl can still be jealous for you!"

He Yan said weakly: "Exceeded the award."

Song Taotao's thoughts, she is not a fool, of course she understands. But the little girl's mind is ever-changing, and it's good to want to live for a while.

"Doctor Lin is here, but what is the matter with me?"

"It's alright," Lin Shuanghe sighed, "There is still blood everywhere in Liangzhou Wei. The corpses of the Qiang people are piled up, and I have a headache. Even though I'm a doctor, I don't like it on weekdays. Seeing the blood, it's annoying, come here to hide."

Lin Shuanghe was also a pampered young master, and he was very uncomfortable with the bitter cold weather in Liangzhouwei. She used Cheng Lisu to build this room, which is spacious and comfortable. Perhaps because of her injury, she ignited a charcoal fire, which was extremely warm. In comparison, it is more suitable to be lazy than outside.

"Why don't you go to Governor Xiao?" He Yan asked, "His house is much more comfortable than mine."

"I think so too," Lin Shuanghe shrugged. "I ran into him when I first came here. He was going to the dungeon with someone. Maybe something happened. I'll find him when I get back."

"Dungeon?" He Yan was stunned.

"What? Do you want to go?"

Lei Hou was alone in the dungeon. Xiao Jue went to the dungeon to interrogate Lei Hou. She had played against Lei Hou before, so there was something she could help with.

He Yan said, "I want to go, can Young Master Lin help?"

"It wasn't possible in the first place." Lin Shuanghe shook his fan reservedly, "but because it was a request from a beautiful girl, it was fine." He stood up, "Let's go, I'll hold you with a stick. "

...

At the door of the dungeon, Xiao Jue and Shen Han were walking inside.

The number of guards at the door doubled, and there were still people watching, for fear that Leihou would commit suicide in prison. The wind took Xiao Jue's cloak, and he said as he walked, "Where's Du Mao?"

"According to your instructions, they were locked up." Shen Han hesitated, but finally said: "But about Lei Hou, he may really not know."

"With me, there is no possibility. Rules are rules." The young man looked indifferent, "If you are wrong, you will be punished."

Shen Han didn't dare to speak.

When the guards in the dungeon saw Xiao Jue, they all gave way. Xiao Jue took off the cloak from his body, handed it to Fei Nu, and looked at the people in the cell.

When He Yan fought with Lei Hou, he fed Lei Hou with Menghan medicine and tied him with Song Taotao's belt. So that when Xiao Jue's people brought it, Lei Hou still hadn't woken up.

But the Lei Hou at this moment was much worse than the Lei Hou when he fought against He Yan. His hands and feet were all tied with wooden shackles, he couldn't move, not even his neck, he had no strength, and he couldn't commit suicide by biting his tongue. Once he loses the chance to dominate his own life and death, he is like a fish on a pallet, and can only be slaughtered by others.

"Open the door." Xiao Jue said.

The guard got up and opened the door.

Even with the door open, Lei Hou couldn't move his entire body except for his mouth. He looked at the person in front of him. The young man's brows and eyes were unbelievably beautiful under the light, but his gaze was as cold as a cold pool.

"Don't waste your efforts." Lei Hou forced a smile, "I won't say anything."

The guard brought the chair over, and Xiao Jue sat down on the chair. He lowered his eyes and looked at Lei Hou, his voice was calm: "A few months ago, you were defeated by He Yan's men in the battle for the flag on Baiyue Mountain, but I still ordered you to enter the forward camp. Do you know why?"

Lei Hou's smile froze, staring at Xiao Jue in disbelief.

Xiao Jue raised his eyebrows: "Guess it?"

"You did it on purpose?" For a moment, Lei Hou's voice was extremely hoarse.

"A recruit, silent during daily training, and a blockbuster when fighting for the flag. What is it, a genius?" Xiao Jue mocked: "Are you such a genius?"

Lei Hou was speechless.

He was deliberate and thoughtful to enter Liangzhou Wei, and he tried every means step by step, for fear of being exposed. Even at this stage, he still has the fearlessness that he is not afraid of sacrifice, but Xiao Jue broke his line of defense with just one sentence.

People have known from the beginning.

So everything he does is like a clown jumping on the beam, being led by the nose and complacent.

"So what?" Lei Hou insisted: "Anyway, it's death, it's not as valuable as death. Even if it adds a thorn to your heart."

"I did one thing when I ordered you to enter the forward camp." Xiao Jue waved his hand indifferently, Fei Nu bent down, took out something from his arms and handed it to Xiao Jue, it was a sachet and a longevity lock. Jue threw the sachet in front of Lei Hou, wrapped the longevity lock around his fingertips, and looked at Lei Hou with a half-smile: "Look, do you still know me?"

Lei Hou was struck by lightning.

The embroidery of the sachet is very familiar. It was made by his wife. The longevity lock was made by the craftsman before Leihou set off and put it on his son.

"Xiao Huaijin," he gritted his teeth and said, "the misfortune is not as good as the wife and children..."

"Wife and children?" Xiao Jue played with the longevity lock in his hand and said sarcastically, "When you came to do this, did you remember that you had a wife and children?"

Lei Hou gritted his teeth and said nothing.

"When you do this, you are tying the lives of your wife and children to you. If you succeed, live together, or lose, why do you think that you are the only one paying the price?"

"Xiao Huaijin!" Lei Hou shouted loudly, he wanted to struggle, but was tied by the wooden shackles, and there was nothing he could do. At this moment, his eyes were red and his eyes were splitting, and he shouted, "What on earth are you trying to do?"

The young governor looked at him with a mocking smile, "You can talk about everything you know."

"Impossible!" Lei Hou said.

"What a loyal dog." Xiao Jue put the longevity lock in front of him, observed carefully, and said indifferently: "Guess you are dead, your wife and children are dead, the master you worked for, will you? Will it take revenge for you?"

"I did it alone." Lei Hou pleaded desperately: "They don't know anything, you let them go, can you let them go? It doesn't matter what you do with me, it doesn't matter if you kill me, I beg you……"

"Before you come, you should have thought about the consequences." Xiao Jue said: "How can you be lucky if you are a dead man. Or, you should hide them a little deeper."

Lei Hou was stunned to the ground.

This young killer of Dawei is as hard-hearted as iron, and no matter how humble his prayers are, it is impossible for him to be soft-hearted. He is an emotionless monster, ruthless, like a clay sculpture and woodcarving. He treats his biological father and mother like this. How could he expect him to have feelings?

"What do you want?" he asked weakly. But he knew that he was no match for Xiao Jue, and it was impossible for him to turn a blind eye to the lives of his wife and children.

But if he did, his master would retaliate. This is a road that can't be turned back, success is life, failure is yellow spring.

At this moment, Lei Hou regretted it.

"I said, tell me everything you know." Xiao Jue said slowly, "I have a lot of time, don't worry, you can finish one by one."

"What if I don't say it?"

The young man paused to play with the longevity lock, and the next moment, with a slight "creak", the longevity lock shattered into powder in her hand. He actually crushed the longevity lock.

"You can try," he said calmly, even mildly, and said, "I promise that the next delivery will not be just these two dead things."

Lei Hou closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, his expression was miserable. He looked at Xiao Jue, and said with a sneer, "As expected of General Feng Yun, as expected of the Commander of the Right Army. Lei Hou has learned about such a kind of charisma."

He Yan was holding a stick and followed Lin Shuanghe to and from the dungeon. As soon as he walked to the door, he heard this sentence.

"It's no wonder that Xiao Zhongwu and his wife fought for military power before they passed the first seven. No wonder they didn't change their faces when they drowned 60,000 people in the first battle of Guocheng and Changgu. In terms of ruthlessness, who can compare to Xiao Huaijin in the Wei Dynasty?"
