At this moment, Yang Da was walking towards the main tent of the camp with a heavy heart.

He was going to report today's events to the general.

If it was just a promotion of a centurion, it would just require reporting afterwards, but today this kid named Qi Dasheng seemed a little unusual.

If he had shown extraordinary strength from the beginning, it would not be a big deal. After all, there are always people better than you, and there are many capable people.

But he hid his strength at the beginning. At the end, after fighting three games in a row, it seemed that he still had energy to spare, as if he had not fully demonstrated his strength.

Yang Da's final evaluation of him was: unfathomable.

In the main tent of the camp, General Chu Shiting was listening to the reports from his subordinates.

"General, our spies have discovered that the Turkic army seems to have made unusual movements." said Captain Lu Zhendong, who was in charge of reconnaissance.

"Oh? Any unusual movements?" Chu Shiting asked.

Lu Zhendong replied:

"The Turkic troops that were originally scattered all over the place are now gathering in the east. According to spies, 50,000 troops have been gathered so far, and more are coming one after another."

Chu Shiting frowned.

The Turks have not made any unusual movements for two years.

Last winter, the weather was particularly cold, and it is said that countless Turkic cattle and sheep froze to death.

Could it be that he wants to go south to beg for money again?

Otherwise it would be impossible to gather troops for no reason.

Their Northwestern Chu Army has a strength of 50,000. If the Turks gather more than twice their own strength and attack Dingxi County, they will definitely find it difficult to resist.

"Let the spies continue to monitor and report daily." Chu Shiting ordered.

"I obey your orders!" Lu Zhendong took the order and went out of the tent to arrange the next task.

Chu Zhao was staying beside Chu Shiting at this moment, his mind wandering.

Yes, I was completely distracted.

He was confined in the military camp by his father for the past two days and was not allowed to return to the city.

Even his personal guards stayed in the barracks.

So he hasn't been able to follow Gu Xi these two days.

Alas, once the habit of tracking is formed, I would feel uncomfortable if I didn’t track for the past two days.

Fortunately, he knew that Gu Xi had settled in Dingxi County, and he would have plenty of opportunities to find her in the future.

One day, he will uncover all of Gu Xi's secrets.

"Zhao'er, tell me, what does the Turkic army intend to do?" Chu Shiting suddenly asked.

Chu Zhao looked confused, "Ah? The Turkic army? Are they attacking us?"

Chu Shiting was furious and kicked him.

Chu Shiting is a general who has experienced many battles, and few other things can affect his mood.

But this brat always manages to break his plan in a second.

Children are debts!

Chu Zhao was kicked and winked at several generals nearby.

The person closest to him was Deputy General Sun Feng, who quickly whispered to him a brief account of what Captain Lu had just reported.

Chu Zhao then said:

"Father, I think that no matter what the Turkic army wants to do, we must be prepared to fight. If they don't start a war, we can just treat it as training. If they do start a war, we won't be unprepared."

Chu Shiting felt that what Chu Zhao said made sense, but he didn't want to pay attention to him at the moment, so he rolled his eyes at him and continued to discuss with other generals.

At this moment, the guard at the door came to report:

"General, Commander Yang Da wants to see you!"

"Let him in." Chu Shiting said.

Yang Da came in, saluted, and said:

"General, generals, a newcomer has joined the army today. I think he is a little strange."

Deputy General Sun Feng said:

"Captain Yang, he is just a new soldier. You can handle him as you see fit. You have always been steady and prudent. Why are you bothering the general with such a small matter today?"

The generals also felt that Yang Da should not come in at this time, and there was nothing serious.

Yang Da said awkwardly:

"If he was just an ordinary recruit, I would not dare to report here. But I really don't understand his behavior. At first, he was just an ordinary kid with some kung fu skills, but then he challenged three consecutive games. The sergeant, the squad leader, and even the centurion Zhou Ju were all defeated by him."

When everyone heard this, they immediately became interested.

After three consecutive battles, even Zhou Ju, a famous strongman in the military camp, was defeated. This guy's fighting skills are not low.

"Isn't it just that his martial arts are good? There are always people better than you. Why does Captain Yang say he is weird?" Chu Zhao suddenly said.

He actually became a little interested in the person Yang Da was talking about, and was ready to find an opportunity to torture him to prevent him from being too arrogant.

Yang Da quickly replied:

"Major General, I think he's weird because he was low-key at first. He obviously had the ability to defeat Sergeant Zhao in one move, but he didn't do it. He had to fight for dozens of moves before barely winning. Later, he defeated Zhou Ju in a very high-profile manner and became a centurion. He looked a little arrogant, but in fact he was unfathomable. If I hadn't seen that he was sincere in joining the army, I would have thought he was here to mess things up."

Chu Shiting said:

"It's a little strange what you said. The situation is urgent and we can't afford to make any mistakes. We should investigate his background to prevent Turkic spies from sneaking in. Who is willing to take on this task?"

Chu Zhao was bored in the military camp, so he said quickly:

"Father, I will go."

Chu Shiting glared at him unhappily, then looked at the other generals, all of whom were looking at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses.

Who among those who work for the Chu family dares to snatch what the young general wants to do?

Chu Zhao received the assignment and had someone take him to Gu Xi's tent.

At this time, it was already dark, and one of his soldiers brought today's dinner to Gu Xi.

Porridge with pickles and a hard steamed bun.

Could it be that these soldiers deliberately bullied her because she was new?

Gu Xi asked the soldier who brought him food in a cold voice:

"What's your name?"

The soldier replied respectfully:

"I am Liu Erdan."

Gu Xi was shocked by the name.

"You're just going to feed me this?"

Liu Erdan said with great fear:

"Captain, this is how dinner is served in the barracks. Since we don't train at night, breakfast will be better."

Gu Xi saw that Liu Erdan was only about fourteen or fifteen years old, and the expression on his face was very serious, and he didn't look like he was lying.

So he said, "Come on, I'll go check on your food."

After going out, Gu Xi was very surprised to see the soldiers sitting on the ground and eating.

Each soldier had only a bowl of porridge and half a steamed bun, not even any pickles.

Even so, they still ate very seriously and did not dare to waste a single grain of rice.

They are going to fight in the battlefield. How can they get nutrition from eating like this? How can they have the strength to train?

Gu Xi brought Liu Erdan back to the tent and said angrily:

"I heard that a large amount of food arrived at the military camp two days ago. Why didn't they give us some?"

When mentioning that batch of grain, Liu Erdan's eyes lit up.

"Captain, it is because of that batch of food that we can eat porridge at night and white rice in the morning. A few days ago, we could only drink porridge with wild vegetables in the morning, and the porridge we drank at night was so clear that it was so clear that you could see your reflection in it."
