When Xu Mu and his men arrived, they found that the attacking bandits had retreated completely. Chang Wei took off his armor and sat on a wooden stake with a look of exhaustion on his face.
An accompanying military doctor was cleaning his wounds.
"General Chang, the King of Shu is here." As soon as the scout who sent the message finished speaking, Chang Wei suddenly jumped up. After looking left and right, he raised his head and smiled naively, and ran forward.
"Little boss! Little boss, you don't know that the thieves were intercepted just now, and I rode on my horse and stabbed seven or eight people to death in succession." Seeing Xu Mu, Chang Wei, who was still a little tired, suddenly became happy again.
.
Next to him, Si Hu, before Xu Mu could say anything, also rushed over with tears in his eyes, turning over Chang Wei's robe and armor, trying to find the wound. Worse, he even took off his pants.
"Xiao Changwei, what should I do if something happens to you and I, Sihu, stay alone in the empty room from now on?"
"Sihu, you and I are not married, so what do we call staying alone in an empty house!"
Xu Mu rubbed his forehead, pulled the crying Si Hu away, and looked at Chang Wei carefully. When he found that there was nothing serious, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chang Wei, I heard that you were intercepted and killed in Kezhou earlier... What do you think, do you know who the person who intercepted you was?"
Chang Wei thought for a while and shook his head, "When we marched here, for some reason, the leading phalanx fell into a horse trap. I couldn't get angry for a moment, so I grabbed a gun and fought with the rebels. We killed for a long time.
I don’t know why, but these bandits suddenly retreated.”
"Retreat on your own?"
"Exactly, I originally wanted to risk my life, but unexpectedly, these people ran away after killing for a while. They are all eggless bitches."
"Can we capture prisoners?"
"I caught it, but I can't find out anything. By the way, I also found this." As he said that, Chang Wei took out a waistband from his arms.
Such waist badges can only be worn by those with a military rank of general or above.
Xu Mu took the waist card and discovered to his surprise that on the waist card was an auspicious five-clawed golden dragon, with a big "Yuan" character between the golden dragons.
Yuan is the surname of the country.
Among the major powers today, only Cangzhou or the pseudo-emperor Yuan Song dare to use such a name.
The Demon Queen of Cangzhou seems to have the greatest suspicion of intercepting and killing her. But in fact, given the current situation, it should be impossible. To say the least, if such a group of people were buried, they should have been hidden long ago.
Think of it as a surprise attack. Not like this, rashly exposed.
"Yuan Song?" Xu Mu frowned. In Muyun Prefecture, Yan Tang was still imprisoned. He couldn't figure it out. What was the significance of intercepting Chang Wei to the two prefectures of Laiyan?
"What? Does the little boss know who it is?"
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Mu said calmly, "Chang Wei, if you believe me, I will make the decision for you."
"Of course I believe it. In this world, apart from my young master, the one I trust the most is you, my little boss."
Xu Mu nodded and smiled.
Chang Wei always called him "little boss" instead of King Xu Shu. This further proves that the former friendship has not disappeared in Chang Wei's heart.
"Let's go to Kezhou with my brother."
"Haha, okay, after entering Kezhou, I will have a drunken night with Shahu."
"You are injured, so don't be greedy." Xu Mu said helplessly. As long as Chang Wei met Si Hu, he would be like a brother who had been separated for eighteen years, crying and getting drunk.
…
With the blessing of being a general in the inner city, Chang Wei received the attention of a large group of allies as soon as he entered the military tent. Especially the king of Jiaozhou, Zhao Di, took Chang Wei's hand and howled sadly for a long time. In the end, he said that he had a daughter in private.
, it happened to be the age for marriage.
To Xu Mu's relief, Xiao Chang Wei was not lost. Instead, he returned the gift politely and sat aside calmly.
"Everyone knows." Zuo Shiren sat in the main seat with a look on his face and gritted teeth.
"The thief is so brave. He actually dares to intercept and kill my brother from the Great Alliance in the middle of the road. This must be another trick of the Demon Queen! If Brother Chang Wei accidentally dies in the interception, the King of Yuzhou will be furious! Then
Our world alliance is about to be instigated successfully!"
It has to be said that Zuo Shiren is indeed a good hero. The use of words at this time not only relieved the previous panic atmosphere, but also pointed the finger at Cangzhou.
Unlike others in the military tent, Xu Mu was still thinking about whether it was Yuan Song who intercepted and killed him? If it was Yuan Song, this move would have lost some quality.
"Brother Chang Wei, don't worry, I, Zuo Shiren, will definitely make the decision for you!"
"The alliance leader is mighty!" Several leaders of small forces who followed Zuo Shiren cheered for a while.
"Everyone, today the world's great alliance is gathered together. I have prepared a banquet and drank this banquet. When we set an auspicious day, we will collect intelligence, write a memorial, and besiege Cangzhou!"
"Siege Cangzhou!"
Within a short time, the entire Chinese military tent was filled with shouts of fighting spirit.
…
After the banquet, Xu Mu did not enter the wing. Instead, he entered the city and the Huang Mansion.
There are some things he needs to ask Huang Daochong.
"Waist badge?" Huang Daochong frowned and took the waist badge handed over by Xu Mu.
"Yes, they are from Yuan Song's side. I later sent people to clean up the battlefield, searched for more than a hundred miles, and captured a captain and several wanderers. When I asked later, they were really Yuan Song's family. But the King of Shu also
I know...it's inconvenient for me to talk about things like this, for fear of causing trouble."
"In addition, I also found out some things. At the beginning of winter, Yuan Song and Tang Wuyuan from Qingzhou met frequently for several rounds. As for the matters discussed, we still need to investigate further."
"Thank you, Master Huang."
"King Shu, please forgive me for this world alliance. I also know that the thirty states are almost divided into two factions, but I, Kezhou, do not want to choose one or the other."
"I understand, Mr. Huang, please don't blame yourself."
Huang Daochong looked excited and bowed deeply to Xu Mu again.
"Master Huang, take your leave."
It was dark at night. Walking on the path back to the camp, Xu Mu raised his head and looked at the faint moonlight above his head. An inexplicable irritation surged in his heart.
"Six Heroes, what do you think about this matter?"
"Captain, I'm suspicious." Yin Hu's voice came out from the darkness.
"I feel that not only the Great Alliance and the Demon Queen, but also a third force wants to take advantage of the fire and gain some benefits from this war."
"How to say?"
"This... seems a bit like something done by an outsider."
Xu Mu paused for a long time before rubbing his forehead. The intrigues in this troubled world seemed to be getting more and more dirty.
"Captain, it's late at night, don't think about it anymore, please go back and rest."
"Where's Si Hu?"
"Two people, Chang Wei and me, were holding wine jars and sitting on the bank of the river, drinking heavily and crying endlessly. Do you want me to send a few people to call him back?"
"No, let him drink. There will be a war in a while, so we should relax first."
