Wife is General Ghost Face
Chapter 44 Your ears are red.
001
Xu Jun lay on the table and thought for a long time, but he still couldn't believe that Tao Chi would do such a thing.
After lying on the table for a while, Xu Jun slowly raised his head.
Now although all the clues point to Tao Chi, he has no proof, so maybe it's not him at all.
Xu Jun didn't want to believe that it was Tao Chi, nor did he want to believe it.
Not only because he was fun, but also because he was the first person he met in this military camp other than General Ghost Face, and he really regarded him as a friend.
On the second day after returning from the field, the first heavy snow fell in early winter, and the whole camp turned into a piece of white snow in just one night.
Xu Jun woke up from his sleep. When he went out, he saw the snow-white piece in front of him. He was stunned for a while before taking a step carefully.
On weekdays, when Xu Jun wakes up, his ears are always accompanied by the sound of trumpets and shouts. It must be because of the snow last night that today's training was stopped, so when he went out, there was only white snow in his eyes.
He has also seen snow in the capital, but the snow in the capital is not heavy, and most of the time it can only accumulate a thin layer, and the ugly ground is exposed outside, which is far less spectacular than here.
After taking two steps forward, Xu Jun looked back at the footprints behind him. He didn't know what to do, and he was a little reluctant to trample the white ground.
After walking a few more steps in the snow and stepping on a few small footprints, Xu Jun became excited.
He hurriedly washed up, hugged his rabbit and Xiao Zong Zui, and ran towards General Ghost Face.
Because of the deep winter, the things in the camp have become much less, so Xu Jun likes to go to General Ghost Face to warm the stove whenever he is free during this time.
After hearing the footsteps at the door, General Ghost Face got up consciously and opened the door.Sure enough, in the snow outside the door, Xu Jun ran towards him quickly with a rabbit and a bag of things in his arms.
After quickly running to the gate of General Ghost Face, Xu Jun crashed into the arms of General Ghost Face with a bang.
General Ghost Face took it for granted, and consciously caught the person, then took the rabbit in his hand, and put the snacks he brought aside.
After the deep winter season, not only Xu Jun's accountant was free, but even he was much more free.
After putting the things in the house, General Ghost Face closed the door.
Inside the room was hot tea that he had already warmed, and he already knew Xu Jun would come.
"General, it's snowing." Xu Jun stood at the window holding hot tea, his cheeks flushed with excitement.
"Ah."
The ghost-faced general released the rabbits and let the two rabbits move around in the house.
These two rabbits have been raised very fat by Xu Jun now, and they look like a big fluffy mass, and they are quite heavy when they are held in his hands.
In Tao Chi's words, it means being able to fry a big plate.
"It's snowing." Xu Jun said again.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, and every year during the Chinese New Year, it will snow for a long time." General Ghost Face looked over, he was already used to this scene, only Mr. Xu was still very excited.
When it comes to Chinese New Year, Xu Jun can't help but feel homesick. This is the first time he spends Chinese New Year outside alone.
Originally, earlier, his family told him to go back to celebrate the New Year, and send him back after the New Year.
But Xia Guo has not retreated yet, so the camp is always in a state of preparation for war, and he can't walk around at will. After all, it will take at least a month to go back and forth. If a war starts in the middle, it will delay a lot of things. .
Because of this, his father, mother, and brother wrote him many letters, and they even sent him several large boxes of his favorite snacks, for fear that he would be wronged in the camp.
After Xu Jun stood at the window and looked at it for a while, he couldn't stand the temptation, so he put down his cup and went out, and squatted in the thick snow in the yard of General Ghost Face to play in the snow.
He was still holding hot tea just now, and when his warm fingers touched the icy snow, Xu Jun was instantly froze, but this did not make Xu Jun less interested. He rubbed the snow dumpling for a while and then put his hands beside his hands for a while. Angry, have a good time.
General Ghost Face sat in the house drinking hot tea, watching Xu Jun from the window.There was a faint warmth in his eyes, like hot tea in his hand.
When Tao Chi came to report the situation to General Ghost Face, Xu Jun had been playing outside for a while, and there were already several of his masterpieces on the ground.
Tao Chi also came to the yard after reporting on the situation of the heavy snow and the fact that he might not be able to train in the past few days because of the heavy snow.
"What are you?" Tao Chi asked.
There are several things on the ground, including two white rabbits and two small people.
Seeing Tao Chi ask, Xu Jun got excited and immediately showed him his masterpiece, "This is a rabbit, this is a general, this is me..."
Xu Jun used snow to make two little rabbits the size of pumpkins, and they even had small tails, so lifelike.
Another ghost-faced general was made, with a small head, a big belly, and a mask with leaves poked holes on his face.
His own snowman had just been made, the same size as General Ghost-faced's, but chubby, and stood next to General Ghost-faced.
Tao Chi looked at the four snowmen, then looked at another pile of things at his feet, frowned, pointed to the ghostly symbols on the ground and asked, "Then what are these?"
"You!" Xu Jun moved and squatted to the side, pointing to the pile of things painted on the ground and counting them one by one, "This is Ping An, this is Sima He..."
Tao Chi frowned again, "Why are you and the general snowmen, and we are ghost symbols?"
It is not an exaggeration to say that the things Xu Jun drew are ghost symbols. He simply drew two circles on the snow surface and added four sticks.
At that level, five-year-olds can draw better than him.
"It's too cold." Xu Jun shrank his hands.
The reason Xu Jun gave was very convincing, because he was so convincing that Tao Chi didn't even know how to refute it.
Xu Jun wanted to take the ghost-faced general, the rabbit and his own snowball into the house and put them in the house. Finally, he looked at the other people on the ground and turned his head, pretending not to know.
Seeing this, Tao Chi became anxious, squatted down, and fiddled with the ground.
After Xu Jun entered the room, he immediately stuffed his cold hands into General Ghost Face's and asked him to cover them.
"It's so cold."
"There is hot tea."
The ghost-faced general handed over the tea at just the right temperature, Xu Jun took it, and took a big sip.
"But it's cold at night."
General Ghost Face was about to say that there was a heater at night, when Xu Jun came up to him, he smiled sweetly and said softly, "Do you want to sleep with me, General?"
Xu Jun's warm breath sprayed on General Ghost Face's neck on purpose, making General Ghost Face shiver uncontrollably.
"Don't fool around."
"Won't the general come and warm my bed?"
General Ghost Face raised his hand to cover Xu Jun's mouth, but Xu Jun kissed him in the palm of his hand.
"Otherwise, how about I warm the general's bed?"
"Don't talk nonsense."
"General, your ears are red."
Xu Jun finished teasing the ghost-faced general, admiring the red pinnae under the mask, he sat obediently in the room and let the ghost-faced general warm his hands.
The hands of the ghost-faced general holding hot tea were very warm, and it didn't take long to cover his hands warmly.
When his hands became warm, Xu Jun went to the side to introduce the things he made to General Ghost Face. After the introduction, Tao Chi was still squatting outside, so he ran out again.
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun, then at the two snowmen on the table, silently reached out and put the two snowmen together, next to each other.
The two snowmen who are close together support each other intimately, and they look much more pleasing to the eye.
Looking at the two snowmen, General Ghost Face was a little distracted.
If this is not a military camp or a border gate, but a quiet and uninhabited mountain hut, that would be great!
He was already used to life in the military camp, he had spent most of his life here, he thought he was used to it, but ever since he promised Xu Jun to live in seclusion with him, he couldn't calm down.
Xu Jun squatted on the ground outside the house, watching Tao Chi play with the snowman he made himself. Tao Chi was complacent, but Xu Jun hit him mercilessly.
Tao Chi refused, and the two started bickering.
After arguing and arguing, Tao Chi suddenly asked, "Have you found it?"
"Ok?"
Xu Jun was stunned for a while before realizing what he was talking about. He glanced at Tao Chi with a complicated expression, but met Tao Chi's eyes.
"It seems that you have found something?"
"No, it's just speculation."
Tao Chi didn't ask, just said: "Is there any evidence?"
Xu Jun turned his head away from him, and his rare good mood turned into depression.
Tao Chi didn't speak any more, just continued to play with the snowman in his hand.
He seems to be planning to make a snowman bigger than Xu Jun's, but it is not so easy to make the snowman bigger. If the snowball is not strong enough, the snowball on it will collapse immediately when pressed on it.
After watching Tao Chi crush the snowball below for the second time, Xu Juncai asked sullenly, "Why do you think he did this?"
What's wrong with camp?
What's wrong with Ghost General?
What's wrong with Dayu now?
If it was because of Jin Qi's affairs, why did he help Xia Guo again?
If it's because of Jinqi's affairs, he can justify helping the rebels, but why is Xia Guo?
Leaking the defensive layout of the battalion to Xia Guo directly hurt the lives of the border soldiers, because tens of thousands of soldiers died in several attacks before that incident, what's wrong with these people?
It was said that Tao Chi was about to start playing the snowball again for the third time and stopped. He didn't look at Xu Jun, but stopped for a while and then continued to play the snowball again.
It wasn't until Tao Chi finished making the snowman that the soldiers outside the door called him, saying that there was something for him to come over, Tao Chi then said, "Maybe he doesn't want to either."
Xu Jun looked up at him.
Tao Chi walked to the door, and when he reached the door, he stopped, "But something happened, it happened..."
Xu Jun pursed his lips, feeling more and more uncomfortable.It was as if a huge stone was pressing on his heart, preventing it from beating and preventing him from breathing.
002
After the heavy snow fell, the camp that had been idle for a while soon became busy again.
This time I am not busy with training as before, but busy with Chinese New Year.
It's mid-December now, and the Chinese New Year will be in less than ten days, so the camp started to prepare.
Xu Jun's accountant is busy celebrating the Chinese New Year in the camp. Although this is a border gate, there is no way to celebrate as much as at home, but it should be expressed. At least the soldiers should have a good New Year's Eve dinner.
Some ingredients need to be prepared in advance, it is too late.
In addition, Xu Jun's accountant will also do a year-end summary like General Ghost Face.
Not long after the ghost face general arrived in December, he began to call the generals of all parties to meet and report on the situation of the year. Xu Jun's side was a little later than him, because the accountant's work must not be done a year ago, and he had to be busy. It will not be finished until January next year.
In addition to the one-year account summary, Xu Jun also had to meet with the account managers of several camps last time. While summarizing the situation this year, he also had to prepare for the coming year.
The accounting room is different from the camp. Some things in the accounting room need to be prepared in advance, such as the preparation of food, planting, and reservation of weapons and equipment, which all take time.
Xu Jun's progress here is like fire and tea. Although he is a little unfamiliar with the annual meeting in his first year, it is generally smooth.
However, General Ghost Face was not going well. The affairs of Xia State, Yuan State, domestic rebels, and the rumors and gossip, all the lieutenants had a headache.
This is not the most headache for everyone, the most headache for everyone is the commotion of soldiers in the army.
Since the rumor spread in the camp, many soldiers talked about it. Taking advantage of this year's meeting, everyone was together, and a lieutenant general in the army wanted to make an explanation.
In the conference hall, the ghost-faced general sat at the top, looking at the lieutenants sitting on both sides of the table in front of him.
"General, there must be an explanation for this matter, and it can't go on like this forever." A lieutenant general beside him said.
"What do you mean?" Tao Chi was displeased.
"General, we have been with you for so many years. I believe everyone knows what kind of person you are and what kind of person we are, but it is useless for us to believe in you!"
"People in the camp are panicking now, it's not right to continue like this."
"Next thing." General Ghost Face said.
"General!"
"But……"
People are in a hurry.
"You just need to remember that you are guarding the border of Dayu, and you are guarding the people of Dayu." A deep voice sounded from under the ghost's face.
The crowd was silent.
"The border army doesn't exist for anyone." Ghost-faced General said.
"The border army has been stationed here all year round, fighting bloody battles on the battlefield all the year round, protecting the people of Dayu, not the person sitting on the throne in the palace."
"And my task is to guard this place. No matter what, I will never let Xia Guo's people take a step forward."
As for Jinqi's affairs, he doesn't care, he believes that Jinqi will handle it well by himself and give the world an explanation.
Although the lieutenants still had some doubts in their hearts, they stopped talking.
As General Ghost Face said, no matter what the face under Ghost Face looks like, it is a fact that General Ghost Face has been stationed at the border all year round.
"If there is no problem, then the next thing." General Ghost Face said.
After everyone was quiet for a while, they said again: "Next year, the conscription in the camp..."
Years ago, the deputy general of the battalion, General Ghost Face and the accountant were busy here, and the only ones who were free were probably the soldiers.
Basically, there will be heavy snowfall during the Chinese New Year period. Sometimes it’s better if the snow is a little lighter. If the snow is heavy, you will definitely not be able to train, so everyone is resting most of the time during this period.
Because he had to prepare for the two days of the Chinese New Year, Xu Jun simply called some soldiers over and asked them to go to the city to prepare food for the New Year's Eve dinner.
This year I have raised cattle and sheep, and the New Year's Eve dinner is richer than usual. Xu Jun is also a big spender, slaughtering a lot of sheep.
Hearing that there was meat to eat, the soldiers in the camp were very excited, and many of them came to help, but they quickly finished the preparations for Mr. Xu's accountant.
After preparing the New Year's Eve dinner here, Mr. Xu went to the other side of the city to look at the warehouse.
It’s winter and it’s snowing, and there’s basically no crops in the ground, so basically all the food consumed in the camp during this period is saved from the previous year. During this period, the warehouse is mostly empty, which is quite scary.
When Xu Jun went, he brought the money from selling Honggu that he sent back from the capital before, and was prepared to give them the money if he met those bandits in the city, so that those people could live a happy life. Year.
After this group of bandits stopped touching Dayu's food during the second half of the year, the people in Dayu camp no longer rejected them as before, but they still hated each other.
After staying in the city for five or six days, Xu Jun was thinking about whether to go to the mountains when Sima He heard the news that he had seen those bandits in the city.
After it started to snow here, the mountains were blocked by heavy snow, and it was not easy for those bandits to come down. It was also the Chinese New Year, so they finally came down to see what they wanted to buy.
When Xu Jun got the news, he immediately took the money and went to guard the gate of the city. At noon, the group of people led the horses with their loads and went out.
Seeing Jun Xu, everyone gathered around. After seeing the silver bag that Jun Xu took out, everyone became excited instantly.
There were not many red mushrooms before, but in general, this is not a small amount of extra income, and everyone is naturally very happy.
Of course, everyone would be happier if the part that Xu Jun took away was not mentioned.
After Xu Jun gave all the money to these guys, he chatted with them a few more times, and then went back to the warehouse.
After entering the warehouse, Xu Jun found that there were many more people in the warehouse, and many people who should have been in the camp had come here.
Everyone still had a bit of shock on their faces, and they all gathered in the room, chattering non-stop.
"Sir." The group greeted Xu Jun with fists together.
"Why are you here?"
The camp is busy preparing for the Chinese New Year. These people should be over there. Why did they all come here?
"Mr. Xiao, don't you know?" Everyone was slightly surprised.
"what?"
"The front line is at war."
Xu Jun stopped his movements and looked over in shock.
"The war started, when did it happen?" Xu Jun remembered that when he left, it was still quiet there. Even before he went out to find the bandits, he had never heard of a fight there.
"Shortly before noon, there was a sudden fight, so we retreated here."
Xu Jun nodded, if this is the case, then it is not surprising.
"I heard that there was an action from Xia Guo, who wanted to sneak attack, but was accidentally discovered by Deputy General Tao, and now Deputy General Tao has led his troops there." Another person said.
Just as Xu Jun was about to speak, he heard the man say again: "But is he okay? The general is not here, so he brought a large team out to meet the enemy. Would it be a little..."
Xu Jun's heart immediately hung high, a group of people?
What does Tao Chi want to do?Want to die? !
"Where's the general?" Xu Jun suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the man and asked.
"The general seemed to know about it. When the news came back, Lieutenant Tao Chi was on the front line, so he led his troops there directly, but he asked others to go back and tell the general."
After hearing this, Xu Jun frowned more and more.
Tao Chi is not like that kind of impulsive person. If the enemy is really coming, he will definitely go back to the camp to report immediately. It is not the best choice to bring only one brigade to meet the enemy.
"The general is already arranging people to go there, but when we retreated, I heard that there was already a fight ahead, and I don't know if the people behind can catch up."
"Sir, where are you going?"
Before everyone finished speaking, Xu Jun had already rushed out of the door.
He pulled the horse that came from somewhere beside him, turned over and got on the horse, and then drove the horse forward.
Everyone was startled when they saw this, and shouted from behind, but Xu Jun didn't intend to turn back, and just leaned on the horse and drove the horse forward at full speed.
In the heavy snow, Xu Jun ignored the icy cold wind blowing on his face, and only moved forward at top speed.
Tao Chi doesn't seem like the kind of person who would be so impulsive...
Thinking of what Tao Chi had said before, Xu Jun inexplicably had a bad premonition in his heart.
He suddenly remembered the incident when Tao Chi was injured. At that time, Xia Guo's people suddenly attacked the camp. Tao Chi led his men to meet the enemy in front and was seriously injured. If General Ghost Face hadn't rescued him, he would have died long ago. Huangquan.
Xu Jun didn't think it before, but now that he thinks about it again, he is covered in cold sweat.
It was only a short time before and after Xia Guo attacked the camp. He and General Ghost Face were sleeping at the time, and they woke up immediately after hearing the sound and went out immediately, but even so they couldn't catch up with Tao Chi's speed.
At that time, Tao Chi was ready to go, and even faced the enemy in front.
He and General Ghost Face got up as soon as they found out that something was wrong, and there was no delay in the period. It is impossible for there to be so much time lag between Tao Chi and him.
The only possibility is that Tao Chi had already been waiting for Xia Guo's attack, so he was able to detect it before others noticed it, and even started to meet the enemy.
Just if that's the case, if he was prepared, why did he get hurt?
Injury on the battlefield is a very normal thing. No matter how powerful a soldier is, Xu Jun thought so before, thinking it was an accident, but thinking about it now, he broke out in a cold sweat.
The injury at that time, and the fact that he led the army alone now, if it was all his arrangement, then is he going to die again?
"drive!"
When Xu Jun rushed back to the camp, the camp had changed drastically.
The camp that was originally covered by heavy snow seemed to have returned to a few months ago. The corridors in the school grounds were full of wounded soldiers.
Xu Jun entered the camp, and immediately grabbed the soldier beside him and asked Tao Chi's whereabouts, but the man remained silent after he spoke.
Xu Jun grabbed another person next to him, "Where's Tao Chi?"
The man had a bitter expression on his face, "Vice General Tao is dead..."
"What?" Xu Jun's face, which was blue by the cold wind, became even more ugly.
He didn't believe it, so he walked a little further, grabbed another captain who looked familiar and asked the same question, "Where's Tao Chi?"
"Sir..."
Seeing Xu Jun, the captain also showed sadness in the chaos.
Xu Jun didn't want to listen to these people's nonsense, so he went to find General Ghost Face.
It was quite a while before he found the ghost-faced general commanding the soldiers in the school grounds.
Xia Guo's sneak attack ahead, Tao Chi led his troops to meet the enemy alone, and when the news came back to the camp, it was already a cup of tea.
When the news of Tao Chi's death on the battlefield came, it wasn't long before their follow-up troops set off.Hearing the news of Tao Chi's death, everyone in the army was extremely shocked.
"General." Xu Jun's face turned pale.
"You go back first." General Ghost Face said.
"Where's Tao Chi?"
"...haven't found it yet." The face under the ghost's face was hidden, making it impossible to see his expression at the moment.
"what?"
"The body has not been found yet."
Xu Jun's face became paler and paler. Standing in the chaotic school field, he looked at the soldiers retreating all around and the blood that stained Baixue red, and felt his hands and feet were cold.
"Xia Guo attacked suddenly. He originally planned to kill us by surprise. After Tao Chi discovered Xia Guo's sneak attack, he immediately led troops to stop the enemy and asked other people to come back to report. When we passed, he had disappeared."
Xu Jun's lips moved, but he couldn't speak.
"Is it him?" In the confusion, the voice of General Ghost Face came.
"what?"
"traitor."
"Yes……"
003
After Xu Jun answered, the ghost-faced general in front of him didn't speak for a long time, but just stood quietly on the school field, looking at the wounded soldiers who kept retreating all around.
Facing this sudden tough battle, although the soldiers in the battalion were surprised, they quickly adjusted their mentality.
Although Tao Chi's incident surprised everyone, such incidents often happen here. While everyone was sad and shocked, they were more angry, angry at Xia Guo!
This time, Xia Guo's action was exposed before it even started. The sudden dispatch of troops from Dayu's side caught them off guard.
After a short battle, Xia Guo retreated in less than half a day, and retreated back to their border.
This time it was not considered a big battle, it could only be called a friction. After a short battle, they separated and went back to the camp to rest.
When Xu Jun drove his horse back to the camp, it was already the end of the battle, and a large number of wounded soldiers withdrew from the front line.
Nuo University's campus was soon filled with wounded soldiers, a chaotic atmosphere, bloody breath, howling moans, and many uninjured people walking around to help bandage the wounds, very busy.
"He said he didn't want to, but when something happened, it happened..." Xu Jun's throat was filled with bitterness.
The ghost-faced general who had been standing motionless in front of him was still standing there, as if he hadn't been shaken at all.
"General, this matter..."
Xu Jun didn't know what he wanted to say, and he didn't have any evidence to prove that Tao Chi was a traitor, but Tao Chi's actions now proved many things, so he couldn't pretend he didn't know.
Now that Tao Chi is dead, he just ignores him, but...
Treason is a serious crime. Once caught and discovered, not only will you be sentenced to death, but you will also be punished with the crime of implicating the entire family.
"You go back." The ghost-faced general turned his head, his black eyes were like a thousand-year-old pool, making it hard to see what he was thinking.
Xu Jun lowered his head, but did not leave.
"Don't tell anyone about this."
Xu Jun raised his head suddenly, what does the ghost-faced general mean?
"I will take care of this matter." After saying this, General Ghost Face stopped talking, and he walked to the side.
In the evening, when the situation in the camp stabilized, Jun Xu finally understood what General Ghost Face meant.
The traitor in the battalion has been caught, and word has spread throughout the battalion.
The traitor was a guard next to Tao Chi, and a spy of Xia Guo who was ambushing them. He had been hiding until Tao Chi found out that he had correspondence with Xia Guo not long ago.
After Tao Chi found out something was wrong, he immediately told the ghost-faced general. The ghost-faced general sent someone to take down the spy, but the spy ran away when he found out that something was wrong. Then attack.
As soon as the news of the traitor spread, the entire camp was in an uproar.
Knowing that the traitor actually killed Tao Chi, everyone in the camp was even more angry, clamoring to avenge Tao Chi.The atmosphere of sadness condensed into one wave, and morale soared.
After Xu Jun sneaked back to the accountant's side and closed the door, he could still hear the cries of revenge from the school yard.
After entering the door, Xu Jun looked nervously at the person standing in the room, "How about it, are you sending it away?"
"It has been secretly sent to the other side of the city according to the command of the adults." The snow on Sima He's body has not had time to pat off.
Hearing this, Xu Jun breathed a sigh of relief, and his pale face became a little more bloody.
"How is he?"
"I don't know yet. The injury is too deep and the blood loss is too much. The doctor over there said that if I can't survive tonight, I'm afraid it will be difficult to survive."
Xu Jun didn't say a word, the military doctor in the camp couldn't help to look at it, and there were no good doctors in the city.
"Please rest assured, my lord. You have saved his life. Whether he can make it through depends on him. No one can help him with this."
"If he wakes up, tell me right away, I want to see him."
Sima He looked embarrassed, "My lord, this matter..."
After learning that Tao Chi led the troops to meet the enemy alone, Xu Jun rushed out immediately, but the place he went was not in the camp but in the direction of the battlefield.
When he arrived, the rear group of troops had not yet arrived, only Tao Chi's group in front was fighting with the enemy army of Xia State.
Xu Jun looked at Tao Chi from a distance, who was red-eyed among the crowd, the bitterness in his heart turned into air and escaped from his mouth and nose, making him extremely uncomfortable.
Knowing that it was wrong to do so, but after seeing Tao Chi was exhausted and seriously injured, he changed into the enemy's clothes and rushed out, taking him away while the others were not paying attention.
Xia Guo's army confronted Dayu's soldiers. In the chaos, no one noticed whether there was an extra Xia Guo soldier.
After rescuing the man, Xu Jun immediately took him back to the camp and hid him in the house. Then he contacted Sima He and asked him to take the opportunity of delivering medicinal materials to the camp to send him to the city.
The two people in the room were silent when there was a knock on the door.
Xu Jun, who had a guilty conscience, heard the sound and immediately looked over like a frightened bird.
"Who?"
"It's me." Ghost General's voice came from outside the door.
Xu Jun glanced back at Sima He in a panic, took a deep breath, and then stepped forward to open the door, "General, why are you here?"
General Ghost Face entered the door, closed the door behind his back, looked at Sima He next to him, and then turned to Xu Jun, "Where are the others?"
"Who?" Xu Jun lowered his head guiltily.
The general breathed a sigh of relief, Xu Jun was not good at lying, his eyes kept moving left and right when he was lying, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was lying.
"Tao Chi."
"I don't know." Xu Jun became more and more guilty.
Tao Chi was a traitor in the camp, if he died on the battlefield, it would be fine, but if he was still alive, he would definitely not be able to escape the crime of linking nine clans and the punishment of hacking into pieces.
"Didn't it mean that he was dead, and the body was not found yet?" Xu Jun looked left and right, but he didn't look at the ghost-faced general in front of him.
Seeing Xu Jun like this, General Ghost Face almost immediately affirmed that Tao Chi must still be alive.
Otherwise, with Xu Jun's character, he must have been red-eyed and very sad at this moment, instead of looking left and right with a guilty conscience, but dare not look at him.
"Where is he now?" General Ghost Face looked at Sima He who was standing aside, and Sima He's forehead was already covered with cold sweat.
Tao Chi is a traitor, if he rescued Tao Chi and hid him, it would be a serious crime if he was prosecuted.
"He's dead." Xu Jun insisted.
Although he didn't know why Tao Chi did such a thing, he felt that Tao Chi must have had a hard time, and Tao Chi must have known that he was suspicious of him, but he didn't do anything or even said that. .
"I have sent people to the battlefield to confirm that there is no body there, and there is no news that Xia Guo took the body away." General Ghost Face said.
"He must have been eaten by snow wolves."
"..."
"Otherwise it will be buried in the snow."
"..."
"I want to see him." General Ghost Face looked at Sima He who was at the side.
The latter looked at Xu Jun and then at Ghost-Mask General, heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I'm afraid it's not possible now, when the Lord rescued him from the battlefield, he was seriously injured, and he finally regained consciousness, but... "
Xu Jun immediately stared at Sima He with wide eyes in disbelief, Sima He dared to betray him!
Sima He ignored Xu Jun's stare as if he was looking at a traitor, and said, "But now he may have been thrown over his shoulder by an adult and died."
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun blankly.
Xu Jun was wronged immediately, and he whispered weakly, "I didn't mean to..."
After he brought Tao Chi back, Tao Chi woke up for a period of time, during which time both of them were silent, finally Tao Chi stood up and wanted to go out, but Xu Jun refused to let him.
Ceramics wanted to die with all his heart, Xu Jun couldn't stop him, and in a hurry, he fell over his shoulder and knocked him unconscious.
Tao Chi was seriously injured, and the wound stopped bleeding with great difficulty. Xu Jun's fall directly opened all his wounds again, and Tao Chi passed out immediately.
"Then where is he now?"
"The subordinates have sent him to the city for treatment, but whether he can wake up or not depends on himself."
General Ghost Face stopped asking Sima He, but looked back at Xu Jun who knew he had done something wrong.
"I think there must be some reason for this..." Xu Jun kept his head down, a little afraid that General Ghost Face would be angry.
"Don't do such dangerous things in the future."
Hearing the voice but not being angry, Xu Jun secretly raised his head and glanced at the general in front of him.
"Is there any other reason? I will ask after he wakes up. Don't let him leave before then." Looking at Xu Jun who was sneaking at him in front of him, General Ghost Face couldn't get angry.
Xu Jun can be willful, but he can't.
Because he is a general, if Tao Chi is really the traitor, he must know what he has done and what information he has leaked.
He is responsible for the entire border army, and it is impossible to bet on the lives of all the troops stationed in the entire border.
"Oh..." Xu Jun took another peek. Seeing that the ghost-faced general was really not angry, he became more courageous. "I was planning to ask him after he woke up."
Speaking of this matter, Xu Jun was a little entangled, because Tao Chi was beaten by him from the original serious injury to the current near death.
"What if he dies?" Thinking of this, Xu Jun couldn't help turning red eyes.
What if Tao Chi didn't die on the battlefield, but was accidentally dropped by him?And wouldn't that make him a murderer?
Xu Jun became more and more anxious. He didn't want to kill people, nor did he want to become a murderer.
Sima He had a headache, why didn't Xu Jun think about this problem before doing it.
"He dare not." General Ghost Face said softly.
Xu Jun looked over anxiously, and after he calmed down, he also blamed himself a little bit. He knew that he shouldn't have done it.
"If he dies, I will copy his family and implicate the whole family."
Sima He suddenly felt that Tao Chi was really not far from death...
Xu Jun lay on the table and thought for a long time, but he still couldn't believe that Tao Chi would do such a thing.
After lying on the table for a while, Xu Jun slowly raised his head.
Now although all the clues point to Tao Chi, he has no proof, so maybe it's not him at all.
Xu Jun didn't want to believe that it was Tao Chi, nor did he want to believe it.
Not only because he was fun, but also because he was the first person he met in this military camp other than General Ghost Face, and he really regarded him as a friend.
On the second day after returning from the field, the first heavy snow fell in early winter, and the whole camp turned into a piece of white snow in just one night.
Xu Jun woke up from his sleep. When he went out, he saw the snow-white piece in front of him. He was stunned for a while before taking a step carefully.
On weekdays, when Xu Jun wakes up, his ears are always accompanied by the sound of trumpets and shouts. It must be because of the snow last night that today's training was stopped, so when he went out, there was only white snow in his eyes.
He has also seen snow in the capital, but the snow in the capital is not heavy, and most of the time it can only accumulate a thin layer, and the ugly ground is exposed outside, which is far less spectacular than here.
After taking two steps forward, Xu Jun looked back at the footprints behind him. He didn't know what to do, and he was a little reluctant to trample the white ground.
After walking a few more steps in the snow and stepping on a few small footprints, Xu Jun became excited.
He hurriedly washed up, hugged his rabbit and Xiao Zong Zui, and ran towards General Ghost Face.
Because of the deep winter, the things in the camp have become much less, so Xu Jun likes to go to General Ghost Face to warm the stove whenever he is free during this time.
After hearing the footsteps at the door, General Ghost Face got up consciously and opened the door.Sure enough, in the snow outside the door, Xu Jun ran towards him quickly with a rabbit and a bag of things in his arms.
After quickly running to the gate of General Ghost Face, Xu Jun crashed into the arms of General Ghost Face with a bang.
General Ghost Face took it for granted, and consciously caught the person, then took the rabbit in his hand, and put the snacks he brought aside.
After the deep winter season, not only Xu Jun's accountant was free, but even he was much more free.
After putting the things in the house, General Ghost Face closed the door.
Inside the room was hot tea that he had already warmed, and he already knew Xu Jun would come.
"General, it's snowing." Xu Jun stood at the window holding hot tea, his cheeks flushed with excitement.
"Ah."
The ghost-faced general released the rabbits and let the two rabbits move around in the house.
These two rabbits have been raised very fat by Xu Jun now, and they look like a big fluffy mass, and they are quite heavy when they are held in his hands.
In Tao Chi's words, it means being able to fry a big plate.
"It's snowing." Xu Jun said again.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, and every year during the Chinese New Year, it will snow for a long time." General Ghost Face looked over, he was already used to this scene, only Mr. Xu was still very excited.
When it comes to Chinese New Year, Xu Jun can't help but feel homesick. This is the first time he spends Chinese New Year outside alone.
Originally, earlier, his family told him to go back to celebrate the New Year, and send him back after the New Year.
But Xia Guo has not retreated yet, so the camp is always in a state of preparation for war, and he can't walk around at will. After all, it will take at least a month to go back and forth. If a war starts in the middle, it will delay a lot of things. .
Because of this, his father, mother, and brother wrote him many letters, and they even sent him several large boxes of his favorite snacks, for fear that he would be wronged in the camp.
After Xu Jun stood at the window and looked at it for a while, he couldn't stand the temptation, so he put down his cup and went out, and squatted in the thick snow in the yard of General Ghost Face to play in the snow.
He was still holding hot tea just now, and when his warm fingers touched the icy snow, Xu Jun was instantly froze, but this did not make Xu Jun less interested. He rubbed the snow dumpling for a while and then put his hands beside his hands for a while. Angry, have a good time.
General Ghost Face sat in the house drinking hot tea, watching Xu Jun from the window.There was a faint warmth in his eyes, like hot tea in his hand.
When Tao Chi came to report the situation to General Ghost Face, Xu Jun had been playing outside for a while, and there were already several of his masterpieces on the ground.
Tao Chi also came to the yard after reporting on the situation of the heavy snow and the fact that he might not be able to train in the past few days because of the heavy snow.
"What are you?" Tao Chi asked.
There are several things on the ground, including two white rabbits and two small people.
Seeing Tao Chi ask, Xu Jun got excited and immediately showed him his masterpiece, "This is a rabbit, this is a general, this is me..."
Xu Jun used snow to make two little rabbits the size of pumpkins, and they even had small tails, so lifelike.
Another ghost-faced general was made, with a small head, a big belly, and a mask with leaves poked holes on his face.
His own snowman had just been made, the same size as General Ghost-faced's, but chubby, and stood next to General Ghost-faced.
Tao Chi looked at the four snowmen, then looked at another pile of things at his feet, frowned, pointed to the ghostly symbols on the ground and asked, "Then what are these?"
"You!" Xu Jun moved and squatted to the side, pointing to the pile of things painted on the ground and counting them one by one, "This is Ping An, this is Sima He..."
Tao Chi frowned again, "Why are you and the general snowmen, and we are ghost symbols?"
It is not an exaggeration to say that the things Xu Jun drew are ghost symbols. He simply drew two circles on the snow surface and added four sticks.
At that level, five-year-olds can draw better than him.
"It's too cold." Xu Jun shrank his hands.
The reason Xu Jun gave was very convincing, because he was so convincing that Tao Chi didn't even know how to refute it.
Xu Jun wanted to take the ghost-faced general, the rabbit and his own snowball into the house and put them in the house. Finally, he looked at the other people on the ground and turned his head, pretending not to know.
Seeing this, Tao Chi became anxious, squatted down, and fiddled with the ground.
After Xu Jun entered the room, he immediately stuffed his cold hands into General Ghost Face's and asked him to cover them.
"It's so cold."
"There is hot tea."
The ghost-faced general handed over the tea at just the right temperature, Xu Jun took it, and took a big sip.
"But it's cold at night."
General Ghost Face was about to say that there was a heater at night, when Xu Jun came up to him, he smiled sweetly and said softly, "Do you want to sleep with me, General?"
Xu Jun's warm breath sprayed on General Ghost Face's neck on purpose, making General Ghost Face shiver uncontrollably.
"Don't fool around."
"Won't the general come and warm my bed?"
General Ghost Face raised his hand to cover Xu Jun's mouth, but Xu Jun kissed him in the palm of his hand.
"Otherwise, how about I warm the general's bed?"
"Don't talk nonsense."
"General, your ears are red."
Xu Jun finished teasing the ghost-faced general, admiring the red pinnae under the mask, he sat obediently in the room and let the ghost-faced general warm his hands.
The hands of the ghost-faced general holding hot tea were very warm, and it didn't take long to cover his hands warmly.
When his hands became warm, Xu Jun went to the side to introduce the things he made to General Ghost Face. After the introduction, Tao Chi was still squatting outside, so he ran out again.
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun, then at the two snowmen on the table, silently reached out and put the two snowmen together, next to each other.
The two snowmen who are close together support each other intimately, and they look much more pleasing to the eye.
Looking at the two snowmen, General Ghost Face was a little distracted.
If this is not a military camp or a border gate, but a quiet and uninhabited mountain hut, that would be great!
He was already used to life in the military camp, he had spent most of his life here, he thought he was used to it, but ever since he promised Xu Jun to live in seclusion with him, he couldn't calm down.
Xu Jun squatted on the ground outside the house, watching Tao Chi play with the snowman he made himself. Tao Chi was complacent, but Xu Jun hit him mercilessly.
Tao Chi refused, and the two started bickering.
After arguing and arguing, Tao Chi suddenly asked, "Have you found it?"
"Ok?"
Xu Jun was stunned for a while before realizing what he was talking about. He glanced at Tao Chi with a complicated expression, but met Tao Chi's eyes.
"It seems that you have found something?"
"No, it's just speculation."
Tao Chi didn't ask, just said: "Is there any evidence?"
Xu Jun turned his head away from him, and his rare good mood turned into depression.
Tao Chi didn't speak any more, just continued to play with the snowman in his hand.
He seems to be planning to make a snowman bigger than Xu Jun's, but it is not so easy to make the snowman bigger. If the snowball is not strong enough, the snowball on it will collapse immediately when pressed on it.
After watching Tao Chi crush the snowball below for the second time, Xu Juncai asked sullenly, "Why do you think he did this?"
What's wrong with camp?
What's wrong with Ghost General?
What's wrong with Dayu now?
If it was because of Jin Qi's affairs, why did he help Xia Guo again?
If it's because of Jinqi's affairs, he can justify helping the rebels, but why is Xia Guo?
Leaking the defensive layout of the battalion to Xia Guo directly hurt the lives of the border soldiers, because tens of thousands of soldiers died in several attacks before that incident, what's wrong with these people?
It was said that Tao Chi was about to start playing the snowball again for the third time and stopped. He didn't look at Xu Jun, but stopped for a while and then continued to play the snowball again.
It wasn't until Tao Chi finished making the snowman that the soldiers outside the door called him, saying that there was something for him to come over, Tao Chi then said, "Maybe he doesn't want to either."
Xu Jun looked up at him.
Tao Chi walked to the door, and when he reached the door, he stopped, "But something happened, it happened..."
Xu Jun pursed his lips, feeling more and more uncomfortable.It was as if a huge stone was pressing on his heart, preventing it from beating and preventing him from breathing.
002
After the heavy snow fell, the camp that had been idle for a while soon became busy again.
This time I am not busy with training as before, but busy with Chinese New Year.
It's mid-December now, and the Chinese New Year will be in less than ten days, so the camp started to prepare.
Xu Jun's accountant is busy celebrating the Chinese New Year in the camp. Although this is a border gate, there is no way to celebrate as much as at home, but it should be expressed. At least the soldiers should have a good New Year's Eve dinner.
Some ingredients need to be prepared in advance, it is too late.
In addition, Xu Jun's accountant will also do a year-end summary like General Ghost Face.
Not long after the ghost face general arrived in December, he began to call the generals of all parties to meet and report on the situation of the year. Xu Jun's side was a little later than him, because the accountant's work must not be done a year ago, and he had to be busy. It will not be finished until January next year.
In addition to the one-year account summary, Xu Jun also had to meet with the account managers of several camps last time. While summarizing the situation this year, he also had to prepare for the coming year.
The accounting room is different from the camp. Some things in the accounting room need to be prepared in advance, such as the preparation of food, planting, and reservation of weapons and equipment, which all take time.
Xu Jun's progress here is like fire and tea. Although he is a little unfamiliar with the annual meeting in his first year, it is generally smooth.
However, General Ghost Face was not going well. The affairs of Xia State, Yuan State, domestic rebels, and the rumors and gossip, all the lieutenants had a headache.
This is not the most headache for everyone, the most headache for everyone is the commotion of soldiers in the army.
Since the rumor spread in the camp, many soldiers talked about it. Taking advantage of this year's meeting, everyone was together, and a lieutenant general in the army wanted to make an explanation.
In the conference hall, the ghost-faced general sat at the top, looking at the lieutenants sitting on both sides of the table in front of him.
"General, there must be an explanation for this matter, and it can't go on like this forever." A lieutenant general beside him said.
"What do you mean?" Tao Chi was displeased.
"General, we have been with you for so many years. I believe everyone knows what kind of person you are and what kind of person we are, but it is useless for us to believe in you!"
"People in the camp are panicking now, it's not right to continue like this."
"Next thing." General Ghost Face said.
"General!"
"But……"
People are in a hurry.
"You just need to remember that you are guarding the border of Dayu, and you are guarding the people of Dayu." A deep voice sounded from under the ghost's face.
The crowd was silent.
"The border army doesn't exist for anyone." Ghost-faced General said.
"The border army has been stationed here all year round, fighting bloody battles on the battlefield all the year round, protecting the people of Dayu, not the person sitting on the throne in the palace."
"And my task is to guard this place. No matter what, I will never let Xia Guo's people take a step forward."
As for Jinqi's affairs, he doesn't care, he believes that Jinqi will handle it well by himself and give the world an explanation.
Although the lieutenants still had some doubts in their hearts, they stopped talking.
As General Ghost Face said, no matter what the face under Ghost Face looks like, it is a fact that General Ghost Face has been stationed at the border all year round.
"If there is no problem, then the next thing." General Ghost Face said.
After everyone was quiet for a while, they said again: "Next year, the conscription in the camp..."
Years ago, the deputy general of the battalion, General Ghost Face and the accountant were busy here, and the only ones who were free were probably the soldiers.
Basically, there will be heavy snowfall during the Chinese New Year period. Sometimes it’s better if the snow is a little lighter. If the snow is heavy, you will definitely not be able to train, so everyone is resting most of the time during this period.
Because he had to prepare for the two days of the Chinese New Year, Xu Jun simply called some soldiers over and asked them to go to the city to prepare food for the New Year's Eve dinner.
This year I have raised cattle and sheep, and the New Year's Eve dinner is richer than usual. Xu Jun is also a big spender, slaughtering a lot of sheep.
Hearing that there was meat to eat, the soldiers in the camp were very excited, and many of them came to help, but they quickly finished the preparations for Mr. Xu's accountant.
After preparing the New Year's Eve dinner here, Mr. Xu went to the other side of the city to look at the warehouse.
It’s winter and it’s snowing, and there’s basically no crops in the ground, so basically all the food consumed in the camp during this period is saved from the previous year. During this period, the warehouse is mostly empty, which is quite scary.
When Xu Jun went, he brought the money from selling Honggu that he sent back from the capital before, and was prepared to give them the money if he met those bandits in the city, so that those people could live a happy life. Year.
After this group of bandits stopped touching Dayu's food during the second half of the year, the people in Dayu camp no longer rejected them as before, but they still hated each other.
After staying in the city for five or six days, Xu Jun was thinking about whether to go to the mountains when Sima He heard the news that he had seen those bandits in the city.
After it started to snow here, the mountains were blocked by heavy snow, and it was not easy for those bandits to come down. It was also the Chinese New Year, so they finally came down to see what they wanted to buy.
When Xu Jun got the news, he immediately took the money and went to guard the gate of the city. At noon, the group of people led the horses with their loads and went out.
Seeing Jun Xu, everyone gathered around. After seeing the silver bag that Jun Xu took out, everyone became excited instantly.
There were not many red mushrooms before, but in general, this is not a small amount of extra income, and everyone is naturally very happy.
Of course, everyone would be happier if the part that Xu Jun took away was not mentioned.
After Xu Jun gave all the money to these guys, he chatted with them a few more times, and then went back to the warehouse.
After entering the warehouse, Xu Jun found that there were many more people in the warehouse, and many people who should have been in the camp had come here.
Everyone still had a bit of shock on their faces, and they all gathered in the room, chattering non-stop.
"Sir." The group greeted Xu Jun with fists together.
"Why are you here?"
The camp is busy preparing for the Chinese New Year. These people should be over there. Why did they all come here?
"Mr. Xiao, don't you know?" Everyone was slightly surprised.
"what?"
"The front line is at war."
Xu Jun stopped his movements and looked over in shock.
"The war started, when did it happen?" Xu Jun remembered that when he left, it was still quiet there. Even before he went out to find the bandits, he had never heard of a fight there.
"Shortly before noon, there was a sudden fight, so we retreated here."
Xu Jun nodded, if this is the case, then it is not surprising.
"I heard that there was an action from Xia Guo, who wanted to sneak attack, but was accidentally discovered by Deputy General Tao, and now Deputy General Tao has led his troops there." Another person said.
Just as Xu Jun was about to speak, he heard the man say again: "But is he okay? The general is not here, so he brought a large team out to meet the enemy. Would it be a little..."
Xu Jun's heart immediately hung high, a group of people?
What does Tao Chi want to do?Want to die? !
"Where's the general?" Xu Jun suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the man and asked.
"The general seemed to know about it. When the news came back, Lieutenant Tao Chi was on the front line, so he led his troops there directly, but he asked others to go back and tell the general."
After hearing this, Xu Jun frowned more and more.
Tao Chi is not like that kind of impulsive person. If the enemy is really coming, he will definitely go back to the camp to report immediately. It is not the best choice to bring only one brigade to meet the enemy.
"The general is already arranging people to go there, but when we retreated, I heard that there was already a fight ahead, and I don't know if the people behind can catch up."
"Sir, where are you going?"
Before everyone finished speaking, Xu Jun had already rushed out of the door.
He pulled the horse that came from somewhere beside him, turned over and got on the horse, and then drove the horse forward.
Everyone was startled when they saw this, and shouted from behind, but Xu Jun didn't intend to turn back, and just leaned on the horse and drove the horse forward at full speed.
In the heavy snow, Xu Jun ignored the icy cold wind blowing on his face, and only moved forward at top speed.
Tao Chi doesn't seem like the kind of person who would be so impulsive...
Thinking of what Tao Chi had said before, Xu Jun inexplicably had a bad premonition in his heart.
He suddenly remembered the incident when Tao Chi was injured. At that time, Xia Guo's people suddenly attacked the camp. Tao Chi led his men to meet the enemy in front and was seriously injured. If General Ghost Face hadn't rescued him, he would have died long ago. Huangquan.
Xu Jun didn't think it before, but now that he thinks about it again, he is covered in cold sweat.
It was only a short time before and after Xia Guo attacked the camp. He and General Ghost Face were sleeping at the time, and they woke up immediately after hearing the sound and went out immediately, but even so they couldn't catch up with Tao Chi's speed.
At that time, Tao Chi was ready to go, and even faced the enemy in front.
He and General Ghost Face got up as soon as they found out that something was wrong, and there was no delay in the period. It is impossible for there to be so much time lag between Tao Chi and him.
The only possibility is that Tao Chi had already been waiting for Xia Guo's attack, so he was able to detect it before others noticed it, and even started to meet the enemy.
Just if that's the case, if he was prepared, why did he get hurt?
Injury on the battlefield is a very normal thing. No matter how powerful a soldier is, Xu Jun thought so before, thinking it was an accident, but thinking about it now, he broke out in a cold sweat.
The injury at that time, and the fact that he led the army alone now, if it was all his arrangement, then is he going to die again?
"drive!"
When Xu Jun rushed back to the camp, the camp had changed drastically.
The camp that was originally covered by heavy snow seemed to have returned to a few months ago. The corridors in the school grounds were full of wounded soldiers.
Xu Jun entered the camp, and immediately grabbed the soldier beside him and asked Tao Chi's whereabouts, but the man remained silent after he spoke.
Xu Jun grabbed another person next to him, "Where's Tao Chi?"
The man had a bitter expression on his face, "Vice General Tao is dead..."
"What?" Xu Jun's face, which was blue by the cold wind, became even more ugly.
He didn't believe it, so he walked a little further, grabbed another captain who looked familiar and asked the same question, "Where's Tao Chi?"
"Sir..."
Seeing Xu Jun, the captain also showed sadness in the chaos.
Xu Jun didn't want to listen to these people's nonsense, so he went to find General Ghost Face.
It was quite a while before he found the ghost-faced general commanding the soldiers in the school grounds.
Xia Guo's sneak attack ahead, Tao Chi led his troops to meet the enemy alone, and when the news came back to the camp, it was already a cup of tea.
When the news of Tao Chi's death on the battlefield came, it wasn't long before their follow-up troops set off.Hearing the news of Tao Chi's death, everyone in the army was extremely shocked.
"General." Xu Jun's face turned pale.
"You go back first." General Ghost Face said.
"Where's Tao Chi?"
"...haven't found it yet." The face under the ghost's face was hidden, making it impossible to see his expression at the moment.
"what?"
"The body has not been found yet."
Xu Jun's face became paler and paler. Standing in the chaotic school field, he looked at the soldiers retreating all around and the blood that stained Baixue red, and felt his hands and feet were cold.
"Xia Guo attacked suddenly. He originally planned to kill us by surprise. After Tao Chi discovered Xia Guo's sneak attack, he immediately led troops to stop the enemy and asked other people to come back to report. When we passed, he had disappeared."
Xu Jun's lips moved, but he couldn't speak.
"Is it him?" In the confusion, the voice of General Ghost Face came.
"what?"
"traitor."
"Yes……"
003
After Xu Jun answered, the ghost-faced general in front of him didn't speak for a long time, but just stood quietly on the school field, looking at the wounded soldiers who kept retreating all around.
Facing this sudden tough battle, although the soldiers in the battalion were surprised, they quickly adjusted their mentality.
Although Tao Chi's incident surprised everyone, such incidents often happen here. While everyone was sad and shocked, they were more angry, angry at Xia Guo!
This time, Xia Guo's action was exposed before it even started. The sudden dispatch of troops from Dayu's side caught them off guard.
After a short battle, Xia Guo retreated in less than half a day, and retreated back to their border.
This time it was not considered a big battle, it could only be called a friction. After a short battle, they separated and went back to the camp to rest.
When Xu Jun drove his horse back to the camp, it was already the end of the battle, and a large number of wounded soldiers withdrew from the front line.
Nuo University's campus was soon filled with wounded soldiers, a chaotic atmosphere, bloody breath, howling moans, and many uninjured people walking around to help bandage the wounds, very busy.
"He said he didn't want to, but when something happened, it happened..." Xu Jun's throat was filled with bitterness.
The ghost-faced general who had been standing motionless in front of him was still standing there, as if he hadn't been shaken at all.
"General, this matter..."
Xu Jun didn't know what he wanted to say, and he didn't have any evidence to prove that Tao Chi was a traitor, but Tao Chi's actions now proved many things, so he couldn't pretend he didn't know.
Now that Tao Chi is dead, he just ignores him, but...
Treason is a serious crime. Once caught and discovered, not only will you be sentenced to death, but you will also be punished with the crime of implicating the entire family.
"You go back." The ghost-faced general turned his head, his black eyes were like a thousand-year-old pool, making it hard to see what he was thinking.
Xu Jun lowered his head, but did not leave.
"Don't tell anyone about this."
Xu Jun raised his head suddenly, what does the ghost-faced general mean?
"I will take care of this matter." After saying this, General Ghost Face stopped talking, and he walked to the side.
In the evening, when the situation in the camp stabilized, Jun Xu finally understood what General Ghost Face meant.
The traitor in the battalion has been caught, and word has spread throughout the battalion.
The traitor was a guard next to Tao Chi, and a spy of Xia Guo who was ambushing them. He had been hiding until Tao Chi found out that he had correspondence with Xia Guo not long ago.
After Tao Chi found out something was wrong, he immediately told the ghost-faced general. The ghost-faced general sent someone to take down the spy, but the spy ran away when he found out that something was wrong. Then attack.
As soon as the news of the traitor spread, the entire camp was in an uproar.
Knowing that the traitor actually killed Tao Chi, everyone in the camp was even more angry, clamoring to avenge Tao Chi.The atmosphere of sadness condensed into one wave, and morale soared.
After Xu Jun sneaked back to the accountant's side and closed the door, he could still hear the cries of revenge from the school yard.
After entering the door, Xu Jun looked nervously at the person standing in the room, "How about it, are you sending it away?"
"It has been secretly sent to the other side of the city according to the command of the adults." The snow on Sima He's body has not had time to pat off.
Hearing this, Xu Jun breathed a sigh of relief, and his pale face became a little more bloody.
"How is he?"
"I don't know yet. The injury is too deep and the blood loss is too much. The doctor over there said that if I can't survive tonight, I'm afraid it will be difficult to survive."
Xu Jun didn't say a word, the military doctor in the camp couldn't help to look at it, and there were no good doctors in the city.
"Please rest assured, my lord. You have saved his life. Whether he can make it through depends on him. No one can help him with this."
"If he wakes up, tell me right away, I want to see him."
Sima He looked embarrassed, "My lord, this matter..."
After learning that Tao Chi led the troops to meet the enemy alone, Xu Jun rushed out immediately, but the place he went was not in the camp but in the direction of the battlefield.
When he arrived, the rear group of troops had not yet arrived, only Tao Chi's group in front was fighting with the enemy army of Xia State.
Xu Jun looked at Tao Chi from a distance, who was red-eyed among the crowd, the bitterness in his heart turned into air and escaped from his mouth and nose, making him extremely uncomfortable.
Knowing that it was wrong to do so, but after seeing Tao Chi was exhausted and seriously injured, he changed into the enemy's clothes and rushed out, taking him away while the others were not paying attention.
Xia Guo's army confronted Dayu's soldiers. In the chaos, no one noticed whether there was an extra Xia Guo soldier.
After rescuing the man, Xu Jun immediately took him back to the camp and hid him in the house. Then he contacted Sima He and asked him to take the opportunity of delivering medicinal materials to the camp to send him to the city.
The two people in the room were silent when there was a knock on the door.
Xu Jun, who had a guilty conscience, heard the sound and immediately looked over like a frightened bird.
"Who?"
"It's me." Ghost General's voice came from outside the door.
Xu Jun glanced back at Sima He in a panic, took a deep breath, and then stepped forward to open the door, "General, why are you here?"
General Ghost Face entered the door, closed the door behind his back, looked at Sima He next to him, and then turned to Xu Jun, "Where are the others?"
"Who?" Xu Jun lowered his head guiltily.
The general breathed a sigh of relief, Xu Jun was not good at lying, his eyes kept moving left and right when he was lying, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was lying.
"Tao Chi."
"I don't know." Xu Jun became more and more guilty.
Tao Chi was a traitor in the camp, if he died on the battlefield, it would be fine, but if he was still alive, he would definitely not be able to escape the crime of linking nine clans and the punishment of hacking into pieces.
"Didn't it mean that he was dead, and the body was not found yet?" Xu Jun looked left and right, but he didn't look at the ghost-faced general in front of him.
Seeing Xu Jun like this, General Ghost Face almost immediately affirmed that Tao Chi must still be alive.
Otherwise, with Xu Jun's character, he must have been red-eyed and very sad at this moment, instead of looking left and right with a guilty conscience, but dare not look at him.
"Where is he now?" General Ghost Face looked at Sima He who was standing aside, and Sima He's forehead was already covered with cold sweat.
Tao Chi is a traitor, if he rescued Tao Chi and hid him, it would be a serious crime if he was prosecuted.
"He's dead." Xu Jun insisted.
Although he didn't know why Tao Chi did such a thing, he felt that Tao Chi must have had a hard time, and Tao Chi must have known that he was suspicious of him, but he didn't do anything or even said that. .
"I have sent people to the battlefield to confirm that there is no body there, and there is no news that Xia Guo took the body away." General Ghost Face said.
"He must have been eaten by snow wolves."
"..."
"Otherwise it will be buried in the snow."

"I want to see him." General Ghost Face looked at Sima He who was at the side.
The latter looked at Xu Jun and then at Ghost-Mask General, heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I'm afraid it's not possible now, when the Lord rescued him from the battlefield, he was seriously injured, and he finally regained consciousness, but... "
Xu Jun immediately stared at Sima He with wide eyes in disbelief, Sima He dared to betray him!
Sima He ignored Xu Jun's stare as if he was looking at a traitor, and said, "But now he may have been thrown over his shoulder by an adult and died."
General Ghost Face looked at Xu Jun blankly.
Xu Jun was wronged immediately, and he whispered weakly, "I didn't mean to..."
After he brought Tao Chi back, Tao Chi woke up for a period of time, during which time both of them were silent, finally Tao Chi stood up and wanted to go out, but Xu Jun refused to let him.
Ceramics wanted to die with all his heart, Xu Jun couldn't stop him, and in a hurry, he fell over his shoulder and knocked him unconscious.
Tao Chi was seriously injured, and the wound stopped bleeding with great difficulty. Xu Jun's fall directly opened all his wounds again, and Tao Chi passed out immediately.
"Then where is he now?"
"The subordinates have sent him to the city for treatment, but whether he can wake up or not depends on himself."
General Ghost Face stopped asking Sima He, but looked back at Xu Jun who knew he had done something wrong.
"I think there must be some reason for this..." Xu Jun kept his head down, a little afraid that General Ghost Face would be angry.
"Don't do such dangerous things in the future."
Hearing the voice but not being angry, Xu Jun secretly raised his head and glanced at the general in front of him.
"Is there any other reason? I will ask after he wakes up. Don't let him leave before then." Looking at Xu Jun who was sneaking at him in front of him, General Ghost Face couldn't get angry.
Xu Jun can be willful, but he can't.
Because he is a general, if Tao Chi is really the traitor, he must know what he has done and what information he has leaked.
He is responsible for the entire border army, and it is impossible to bet on the lives of all the troops stationed in the entire border.
"Oh..." Xu Jun took another peek. Seeing that the ghost-faced general was really not angry, he became more courageous. "I was planning to ask him after he woke up."
Speaking of this matter, Xu Jun was a little entangled, because Tao Chi was beaten by him from the original serious injury to the current near death.
"What if he dies?" Thinking of this, Xu Jun couldn't help turning red eyes.
What if Tao Chi didn't die on the battlefield, but was accidentally dropped by him?And wouldn't that make him a murderer?
Xu Jun became more and more anxious. He didn't want to kill people, nor did he want to become a murderer.
Sima He had a headache, why didn't Xu Jun think about this problem before doing it.
"He dare not." General Ghost Face said softly.
Xu Jun looked over anxiously, and after he calmed down, he also blamed himself a little bit. He knew that he shouldn't have done it.
"If he dies, I will copy his family and implicate the whole family."
Sima He suddenly felt that Tao Chi was really not far from death...
