Chapter 214: Retribution
As for Xie Hong's trouble, it only happened that day, but in the next few days, he would encounter something while sleeping every day.
Small things like mice and ant colonies can't hurt him, but these things are really annoying and disturb him every day.
After several days, Xie Hong also fell into a trance.
Several followers were even more sensitive and suspicious, and their tents were opened.
One of the followers howled, "Who? What's wrong?"
"It's me, the little one, here to deliver the food."
When he saw clearly that it was the fire-headed soldier delivering the food, the follower put down the knife.
Xie Hong glared at the follower and took the food from Huotoujun's hand.
"It's time to work."
Xie Hong said something to the Huotou Army and immediately excited the Huotou Army.
This is the deputy general in the army. The deputy general actually talked to him. Has his opportunity come? If he performs well, he might be able to go to the battlefield?
Thinking like this, the fire-headed soldier bent down and asked carefully, "This is what I should do, but who has the deputy general offended recently?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
After being questioned by Xie Hong, the Huotou Army immediately knelt down and spoke, "Lieutenant General, please calm down. I'm just guessing. I heard that there are always some worms and mice in your camps. Although this is the boundary of the earth, there is nothing wrong with the appearance of these things, but
Why do you only appear in your camp? Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"
Huotoujun's words made Xie Hong fall into deep thought.
Didn't he think of what Huotoujun could think of?
But why would that person use such despicable means to deal with him?
Now that someone was sure, Xie Hong immediately thought of another possibility.
"It belongs to his grandma. Grandpa, I'm going to kill him right now."
After saying this, Xie Hong picked up his sword and left the tent, heading all the way to where Yan Ruomeng's tent was.
In recent days, the army was waiting for people, so Yan Ruomeng didn't have to rush, and she was happy to have some free time, so she took Ah San and Jin Nuo to make dried meat.
When Xie Hong came, he happened to catch up and Yan Ruomeng hung the dried meat with chili pepper on the wooden shelf.
As soon as the wind blew, the chili pepper got into Xie Hong's eyes.
The burning in his eyes made him cry out in pain, "Who? Dare to plot against grandpa?"
When Yan Ruomeng and others saw this, they pursed their lips and suppressed laughter.
After the spiciness of the chili peppers subsided, Xie Hong happened to see Yan Ruomeng and others holding back their laughter, and his anger increased a bit.
"Don't you fucking want to live? Do you dare to play these tricks with me? Do you believe that I will punish you for murdering a court official?"
Xie Hong pointed at Yan Ruomeng and started scolding him, followed by some extremely unpleasant words.
They were all automatically ignored by Yan Ruomeng.
If this happened in Qingzhou Mansion, she might be afraid, but after she experienced the intrigues in the palace, she was not afraid at all when facing someone like Xie Hong.
"Lieutenant General Xie, it was the wind that blew the pepper into your eyes just now. Who do you want to punish? The pepper or the wind?"
Ah San couldn't help but laugh when he heard Yan Ruomeng's words, "It's so funny. People can't do it well but they still blame the uneven road."
Realizing that he had been fooled, Xie Hong simply drew his sword and pointed it at Yan Ruomeng, "Tell me, did you release the rats and worms in my tent?"
Okay, they were discovered, but can Yan Ruomeng admit it?
Of course not, so she thought of the most suitable methods for sophistry.
"Why do you say it was me who released it? Do you have any evidence? If you slander others' innocence like this, I will charge you with suspicion."
Xie Hong didn't expect Yan Ruomeng to say that, and couldn't help but take a few steps back while holding the long sword.
"You, you, who else can there be besides you?" Xie Hong's situation was completely messed up. This was different from what he thought.
"Why can't there be anyone but me? What if God doesn't like you and wants to punish you on purpose?" Yan Ruomeng's mind was now very clear since she had sorted out her thoughts on her reply.
Xie Hong turned his eyes to the sky and said, "That's nonsense. I have only dealt with you recently. There is no need for others to go against this deputy general."
Yan Ruomeng crossed his arms and said, "Oh? Are you just asking for it?"
Xie Hong's forehead was already covered with fine sweat, "What are you trying to do?"
Why does he feel so stressed about this little boy?
"You kicked over my iron pot and wasted food." Yan Ruomeng had already blamed Xie Hong for the burnt buns.
Rounding is a waste of food.
But that day, Xie Hong was so busy venting his anger that he didn't even notice what was cooking in the iron pot.
Now that Yan Ruomeng said this, he was unable to refute.
Seeing this, Yan Ruomeng continued, "Do you think it was because God couldn't bear it anymore that these things happened?"
When Ah San heard that his masterpiece was placed on God's head, he unconsciously thought of his sins in his heart, but he did not forget to add some fire to his words.
"Lieutenant General Xie, I think it is really possible. Have you forgotten that when you came here just now, the wind blew the pepper into your eyes?"
Xie Hong couldn't forget it, but he still felt that it was Yan Ruomeng who was responsible. He just suffered from the fact that he had no evidence and was not good at words, so in the end he could only go back feeling aggrieved.
The campground has been in low spirits these past few days.
Xie Hong ate a turtle at Yan Ruomeng's place, and Yan Ruomeng was bored because he stayed in the yellow sand for a long time.
As for the soldiers.
When Yan Ruomeng would deliberately make extra food to sell, they were very motivated.
Every day I want to arrive at the camp earlier so that I can taste the food cooked by the chef earlier.
But since then Xie Hong has banned Yan Ruomeng from buying and selling food.
The soldiers also felt that their days were running out. Originally, most people came to join the army just for a bite to eat, and it would be best if they could eat well.
Now we have delicious food in front of us, but we can’t eat it. Who wouldn’t feel cowardly about this?
However, this matter cannot be solved for the time being, so everyone is living like this.
Yan Ruomeng noticed something unusual, so he told Tang Yuchuan about it while he was resting at night.
However, Tang Yuchuan just replied, "The day of breaking the situation is coming soon."
As he said, things were really unusual in the camp the next day.
After asking, I found out that the military advisor was here.
Ah San spared no effort to introduce the origin of the military advisor to Yan Ruomeng.
"This man was a counselor that King Mu met when he came to Northern Xinjiang in the first year. His name was Mo Fang. Under his advice, King Mu won three games in a row and suppressed the turmoil in Northern Xinjiang at that time. This person was also
Serve as military advisor."
"Is he from Northern Xinjiang?" Yan Ruomeng asked.
Ah San was slightly surprised, "Why did Yan Chu say this?"
"He seems to be very familiar with Northern Xinjiang. Why did Dijietan choose him to lead the way? It can only be that he is very familiar with this area. What do you think?" Yan Ruomeng turned to look at Ah San and Jin Nuo.
Ah San's liveliness contrasted sharply with Jin Nuo's silence. After Ah San joined Yan Ruomeng's camp, Jin Nuo's sense of presence became even lower.
Now it was Yan Ruomeng who took the initiative to ask questions. Jinnuo thought carefully and gave his own opinion.
"Yes, and I'm afraid they are from near the Jijie Beach. But why do you suspect this, Master?"
