Chapter 843 Wait and see
During that period, Xu Cheng and others were very sleepy and seemed to be frightened. Instead of feeling at ease, Marquis Wu An felt a little strange and had no idea what they were planning.
As he expected, the people below were becoming more and more dissatisfied with the behavior of these warlords, especially after seeing the red marks on the necks of several of them that were clearly sucked out by women. Rumors began to spread among the army.
open.
Some people say that this group of people are not here to supervise the army. They are obviously here to have fun. Others say that they are the eyes and ears sent by His Majesty. The three thousand army is said to be too many or too few. This is because they do not trust them.
Some people also thought that they deliberately slowed down the march for other reasons. In short, they could say anything. Suspicions were rampant, but Marquis Wu An did not do anything to deal with it and allowed the rumors to spread unchecked.
After traveling for two days and two nights, the army finally arrived at the border of the Central Plains. Seeing that they were about to reach a new inn, Marquis Wu An keenly noticed that the governors who were originally like quails suddenly became excited. He sneered in his heart and couldn't hold back his anger.
Already?
As soon as the army entered the territory of the Central Plains and had not yet reached the inn, Marquis Wu'an gave an order and ordered all the troops to camp on the spot. There was no intention of going to the inn. Duan Xucheng and others, who had suffered a lot in the past few days, went all the way.
He had evil intentions, but was forced to stop.
Seeing that the soldiers had set up tents in the woods and started looking for a place to light a fire, the governors arrived in front of Marquis Wu'an's tent. While Marquis Wu'an was talking to the young generals, the tent door was opened, and the tent outside was opened.
People rushed in.
Marquis Wu'an looked displeased and looked around. Seeing that his subordinates were even more dissatisfied than him, he suppressed the tone in his heart and did not get up: "What do you want, governors?"
As soon as Duan Xucheng saw Wu'an Hou's shining eyes, he thought of the night when his head almost fell to the ground. He shuddered inexplicably and suppressed the reluctance in his heart and said: "Master Hou, this place is not far from the Central Plains Station. I don't know why I am stuck."
Not moving forward?"
"It's okay for the soldiers, but it's a pity that there are many family members, old, young, women and children. They are too tired and can't make the journey." Marquis Wu An said: "They are all the relatives of the soldiers, there must be no mistakes."
Among those who fell ill on the road were the mothers and young children of several deputy generals. When they heard these words, their chests felt hot, and when they looked at these critical warlords, there was a thorn in their eyes.
"That being the case, you can just stay where you are, and I'll wait for the horse to rush to the inn, so that the Marquis won't be distracted." Duan Xucheng covered up the sinister look in his eyes, and put his hands behind his back to hide the trembling of his fingers.
Marquis Wu'an said nothing, and the tent was eerily quiet.
Finally, someone laughed out loud and asked: "Master Overseer, can't bear to sleep in the open, or do you want to drink wine? Why, so many soldiers and women can endure it, are you not even as good as a maiden?"
"Hahahaha..." After saying this, the camp was filled with laughter!
The general was vulgar and spoke straightforwardly, which made Duan Fangcheng and others blush with anger, but Marquis Wu An had no intention of stopping his subordinates, and just leaned there lazily and looked at them with a half-smile.
"Master Marquis!" Another warlord took a step forward: "We are the warlord sent by His Majesty himself. Why do you allow your subordinates to humiliate us like this? Why don't we go to the inn first?"
Marquis Wu'an sneered again and again. If he hadn't sent someone to keep an eye on them, would they have come over and Chen Ming wanted to go to the inn in advance?
I just came over to say hello out of necessity!
"The governors are delicate and delicate, just like the ladies of the noble family. We have been negligent." Marquis Wu An made no secret of his malice towards them: "In this case, I will send a team of people to escort you to the inn to rest in advance.
Just leave it."
He immediately changed the subject: "But I would like to ask you all to please stop having fun. It would not look good if it was revealed outside."
These words sounded like a threat, but Duan Xucheng seemed to have seized the opportunity and said immediately: "If the Marquis is worried about being implicated by us, there is no need to send someone to protect him. We will go to the inn on our own."
"Even so, we are not unarmed people." Another warlord agreed: "Don't worry about it, Lord Marquis."
Marquis Wu An said nothing, but looked at them up and down with his eyes. He did not reply or refuse. There was a smile in his eyes. He did not know how long it had passed before he casually said the word "good".
Several lieutenants were shocked. These people clearly had ulterior motives. Lord Marquis was relieved to let them go to the inn in advance. That place was the place where news was delivered. God knew what they were going to do!
Those people made him let go and immediately turned around and left. The team that originally followed them was ordered not to follow them, so he just watched them pack up their bags and ride horses to the front station, riding away from the dust!
"Master Hou!" Everyone in the camp looked anxious, but Marquis Wu An said calmly: "Don't be anxious, just wait."
The army is stationed here, as usual, taking rest when it is time. The doctor accompanying the army is busy treating some uncomfortable soldiers and family members. Perhaps the illness is making people depressed. There is no news that the ten warlords went to the inn on their own.
Walk along the path.
The whole garrison was filled with a low atmosphere. Watching it, Marquis Wu An leaned against a big tree with his hands behind his back. Two deputies came from a distance, holding dry food in their hands: "Master Marquis, use a little."
?”
Marquis Wu An took the thin cake, without even putting water in his mouth. He finished one piece in a moment and then picked up the pot to drink water. His eyes were red: "But you can't calm down anymore?"
The faces of the two lieutenants were slightly red, and Lieutenant General Fang said: "The young ones are not as smart as the Marquis. The soldiers below can see that these governors have no good intentions and are always on guard against their deception. The Marquis is also worried, which is why people are worried."
Looking at them, why are they so relaxed?"
"I want to see what kind of medicine they sell in their gourds." After Wu Anhou finished speaking, he looked at them steadily: "If they want to kill us, what should we do?"
The two lieutenants looked at the family members not far away and suddenly came over: "Is that why the Marquis asked his subordinates to try their best to bring their families with them?"
"Just in case." Marquis Wu An said: "My two brothers thought they were simply stationed, but they didn't know that there was an undercurrent surging underneath. If we didn't pay attention, our lives would be in danger. I gave them a chance, but they didn't accept it.
"
The deputy general always followed Wu'anhou's lead and said excitedly: "Is it possible that your Majesty wants to take advantage of this opportunity?"
"It's hard to say. If we don't let them reveal their flaws, we can't draw conclusions. How can we let them commit suicide if we keep a close eye on them?" Marquis Wu An threw the kettle to the deputy general and coldly snorted: "We'll see!"
Besides, Duan Xucheng and others left the station quickly, fearing that there would be pursuers behind them. They waited for more than ten miles before slowing down and making sure that no one from Marquis Wu'an was following them. Then they took some time to drink water. They had already left.
