Chapter 379: The boss’s life is not a life? !
The sturdy man from the grassland was still shouting, "Do you think you have won by taking me down? I tell you, you underestimate us grassland people! The gods will send down a fire and burn Fuming Town to ashes!"
"Are you talking about the people buried near the warehouse?" Deputy General Gu Hai walked over with a knife that was still dripping with blood.
The sturdy man from the grassland suddenly felt something was wrong.
Gu Hai didn't like playing coy, so he said directly, "We have been keeping an eye on you since you sent spies to scout the area a few days ago! Your every move is under our surveillance."
The sturdy man on the grassland widened his eyes in disbelief and shouted, "This is impossible. If you knew someone was going to assassinate Gu Nanxi, why would she still appear on the rostrum?!"
Deputy General Gu Hai's expression softened and he saluted the confused Gu Nanxi, his tone full of admiration.
"The general insisted on using himself as bait to lure out all of you ghosts! And also to lure out the bad guys hiding among us!"
Gu Nanxi was shocked!
When did I agree to be the bait?!
Is the boss's life not a life? !
Lu Mei sobbed and complained in a low voice: "Master, next time you can't be so stubborn! This is too scary. Even if General Gu and his men were on guard, didn't they almost have an accident?"
Gu Nanxi looked at Lu Mei in disbelief. Others don't understand your master, don't you understand him either? !
Lu Mei met Gu Nanxi's gaze and finally gave in. She said unwillingly, "I understand. Next time you encounter this kind of thing, take me with you. I can at least be your meat shield."
Gu Nanxi turned her head and looked at the burly man with a pair of dead fish eyes.
Very good, everyone knows what happened, but I, the victim, am still confused!
Would someone who understands dare to explain it?
Wang Bushi felt very complicated. He thought he knew the general very well, but he didn't expect that in the Cuju competition, he was not as good as a grassland man!
It turns out that the general wants every citizen to become a soldier!
Killing several birds with one stone, that’s all!
Wang Buxi signaled Old Man Geng to suppress the burly man from the grassland, then walked to Gu Nanxi and asked for instructions in a low voice.
"General, everything is going according to our plan. This time, the six major tribes on the grassland launched a surprise attack on us under the command of the Tatars. Cooperating with them are spies hidden among our soldiers defending the city, as well as..."
And soldiers who were bribed.
Although Wang Buxi knew that it was very difficult to achieve unity among the people, he still couldn't understand why those people would choose to betray for a few pieces of silver when there was such a good general!
Wang Buxi suppressed his anger and continued to report the situation: "They split into two groups. One group hid in the Cuju field to carry out assassinations, and the other group was distributed in various warehouses, preparing to burn down our granaries and cause panic."
"According to our understanding, the plan to burn down the granary was prepared long ago, but the assassination plan was only proposed a few days ago, so it was prepared in a hurry."
Wang Buxi lowered his head and apologized: "General, it is because we did not do a good job of security that you were frightened. Please punish me!"
At this moment, Gu Nanxi's mood was extremely complicated.
Therefore, everyone knew that there would be an assassination attempt on the day of the Cuju match.
They thought they knew!
More importantly, the conversation between him and Deputy General Gu Hai made them feel that they were using themselves as bait to catch a bigger fish!
Can you blame them?
It seems impossible. After all, I delegated the power myself...
Between holding them accountable and continuing to delegate power so that he could play badly, Gu Nanxi hesitated for only three seconds before choosing to continue playing badly.
Gu Nanxi took the hot tea prepared by Lumei, took a sip, and calmed down: "You did a good job. Who came up with this plan of playing the opponent's trick against you?"
Gu Nanxi thought to himself, let me see who is so smart and capable. He will have to bear more responsibilities in the future!
Wang Buxi lowered his head even lower, and the guilt in his heart almost overwhelmed him.
The general had even planned the route, and all he had to do was teach them step by step how to do it. But when the time came, such a mistake still happened!
Wang Buxi said in a hoarse voice: "It's all our fault! General, you have clearly told us that we have to let the enemy shoot the first arrow, so that we have a reason to send troops! It's our fault that we didn't do our job well..."
Hearing this, Gu Nanxi almost laughed out of anger!
You can't pass the buck like this!
When did I say I would find trouble? !
"Um?!"
Wang Buxi was immersed in self-blame, unable to extricate himself: "General, we have kept in mind the farming story you told us. Now that the other party has taken the initiative to burn our granary, shouldn't we show the strength of our Yunzhou?!"
Deputy General Gu Hai pleaded: "Although the wind is strong and the snow is heavy, the entire Gu family army in Fuming Town is willing to die for the general!"
Yan Tongchu took out a list and said, "The Tashi tribe is our accomplice, so they can be crossed off the list. The ones who jumped the highest this time are the Dorwu tribe and the Keremuchen tribe."
Now that things have come to this, what else can Gu Nanxi do?
"Fuck him!"
"Yes, sir!" Deputy General Gu Hai, along with Gu Shisan and others, received the order and walked down the platform in a menacing manner.
Wang Buxi wanted to follow him, but looked at Gu Nanxi uncertainly: "General, are you going back to the governor's mansion?"
Gu Nanxi picked up the Cuju that had fallen at her feet and shook her head: "I will continue to watch the Cuju game here and have fun with the people."
Wang Buxi bowed deeply and followed Gu Hai in big strides.
This time, the various units of the Yunzhou team are dispatching troops, and speed is of the essence!
Wang Buxi and others would bring officials from the county government and follow behind the main force, and reorganize the troops on the spot every time they attacked a tribe!
Try to finish this before the beginning of spring!
The podium was empty, with only Gu Nanxi and Lumei left.
The scene was silent.
Gu Nanxi picked up the Cuju, as if nothing had happened, and asked loudly with a smile: "Whose Cuju is this?"
Aunt Asan and Chasu looked at each other, and no one knew what to do.
Aguduo stood up, his voice trembling: "Reporting to the general, it's mine!"
Gu Nanxi put down the Cuju, took a few steps back, ran a few steps, and kicked hard!
"Catch it! Keep playing!"
The Cuju draws a perfect parabola in the air.
Aguduo's eyes followed the Cuju closely and he ran quickly towards the place where the Cuju landed.
"Stop her!" Shopkeeper Xia reacted and shouted.
"Come on, Gesanghua! Come on, Aguduo!"
"Come on Huaishuo Chamber of Commerce!"
The atmosphere at the scene became lively again, with flags flying and gongs and drums beating.
They seemed to be cheering for the players on the field, and also seemed to be beating drums to encourage the soldiers who were about to go to the battle!
