Chapter 164 Now that we are done, you can leave
Now, fifty-six soldiers brought by Xie Chen were killed and eighteen were injured.
Three of the pirates were killed and nine were injured.
Among the prisoners one was killed and twenty were injured.
The Seventh Princess's watch has always been very neatly organized, and this time is no exception.
Not only was a list of casualties on both sides compiled, but the names of those seriously injured were also divided up, with those specially circled.
Xiangying saw that General Ke's name was circled, so he asked, "Are they different?"
The Seventh Princess took a look.
"Those circled are all seriously injured and are dying. The military doctor has determined that they cannot be saved."
Xiangying recalled silently that General Ke was stabbed in the vital parts, and later in the chaos, it seemed that he was stepped on in the heart by the horses' hooves of King Xuan and others.
In fact, General Ke has never supported Jie Chen's relationship with her and has always been hostile to her. Xiangying should not care about his life or death.
But when he thought of her being dragged by the horse and almost falling off the cliff, General Ke struggled to pull her up.
"I'll go see him." Xiangying led his men to the wounded's tent.
General Ke was probably dying and was at the innermost part of the tent.
When Xiangying just came in, Suan Xiucai had just visited General Ke and was about to leave.
Knowing that Xiangying was here to see Military Supervisor Ke, Suan Xiucai sighed and lowered his voice: "The military doctor said that it will happen today."
Xiangying walked up to General Ke and said, "General Ke, I heard that you are getting better soon. I want to remind you that when you get better, don't forget my life-saving grace and stop going against me."
General Ke slowly opened his eyes. His face had turned almost sallow and he had lost all his vitality.
His eyes were like pebbles, without any emotion.
However, after seeing clearly that it was Sang-young, a few tears slipped out.
Supervisor Ke smiled bitterly: "At this point, you don't need to make fun of me anymore. I know I can't survive."
"I trusted others too easily and was careless. The deputy general refused to see me for the last time. Xiangying, no one will target you anymore."
This statement actually has some of the meaning of "a dying man's words are good."
Xiangying gave Taoxue a look, and Taoxue immediately pulled Qi Fengyi and stood nearby to block them.
Their eldest princess has something to say to Military Supervisor Ke alone.
Xiangying reached out and held General Ke's pulse.
A slow and weak pulse is definitely a dead pulse.
Even if we use the adrenaline in the space, it is impossible to save him.
There's nothing that can be done about it.
Seeing Xiangying withdraw his hand but not say anything, General Ke knew that his situation was not good.
He couldn't help but ask: "Xiangying, if you hate me, just kill me now, while I'm still breathing, you can still... vent your anger."
He coughed as he spoke, blood foaming from his mouth.
Xiangying moved a bench, sat next to it, and reached out to the pile of firewood to warm himself.
The flames flickered and danced, highlighting her dark phoenix eyes, which were devoid of any emotion.
"I'm not so narrow-minded as to vent my anger on a dying person. General Ke, you're a strange person. I never saw you say a word to me in a friendly manner when things were good, but now that you're about to die, you can talk to me calmly."
"I know why you want to see Jie Chen. You still have a sister you can't let go of, right? What message do you want Jie Chen to convey to her? Since you helped me before, I'll say it for you."
Perhaps it was because of the mention of his relatives, and the thought that he would never be able to see his sister for the last time, that Supervisor Ke burst into tears.
He shook his head. "I have nothing to say to her. This is good. She will think that I died on the battlefield fighting the enemy instead of waiting for death. She will be more accepting."
Xiangying was silent.
General Ke's eyes, which seemed to have little vitality, moved and he looked around.
He raised his trembling hands and took out a secret letter from his waistband.
"Xiangying, I can only trust you. The deputy general refuses to see me, but you, you give this to him."
"What's this?"
Xiangying opened it, only to find that it was a secret letter.
It was unknown who told the recipient of the letter to work with King Xuan to kill Jie Chen and destroy his body.
Her eyebrows twitched when she saw it.
How many spies are there in Xie Chen's team along the way?
"I am actually the Sixth Prince's staff member and a spy he arranged to be by the Deputy General's side. My mission was to take action against the Deputy General on the way to South Vietnam."
"But after getting along with him, the deputy general always saved me from danger. Moreover, the deputy general never really punished us brothers."
"I had no intention of doing anything, but I didn't expect that I would die here. I wanted to hand it over to the deputy general in person, but I am dying soon. Please convey it to me."
As General Ke spoke, more and more blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
This phenomenon only occurs when there is severe internal bleeding and excessive abdominal pressure.
He's dying.
Ke Jianjun grabbed Xiangying's sleeve tightly: "You must tell him, be careful, be careful of Liu..."
Before he could finish his words, General Ke had already opened his eyes and lowered his arm straight down.
Xiangying was startled: "General Ke!"
She quickly put the secret letter close to her body and then felt the pulse of General Ke.
No heartbeat.
Her shouting alarmed the busy military doctor in the tent, as well as the soldiers who were also seriously injured.
Everyone sat up and looked in the direction of General Ke with silent and sad eyes.
Xie Chen learned the news but did not come.
Instead, he sent someone to handle General Ke's funeral.
He was to be buried on the hillside of this snowy mountain. Xie Chen took away his sword, presumably to take it back to South Vietnam.
Xiangying walked out of the tent silently and went to the camp where Chen was resting.
At this moment, the remaining military supervisors were surrounding him, discussing the next route and team allocation.
Xiangying lifted the curtain and came in. When Suan Xiucai and the others looked up and saw him, they immediately wanted to leave.
However, Xie Chen frowned and looked at Xiangying coldly: "Why did you come in without reporting? Do you know the rules?"
Xiangying has convinced herself to accept his completely different attitude in and out of bed.
The words that came out of her red lips were also cold.
"General Ke just died."
Xie Chen remained calm, his eyes as cold as the dark night: "So?"
Xiangying's words came to his lips, but he couldn't say them.
Because there were too many people in the tent, she couldn't tell in public what Supervisor Ke had told her to do.
So, she could only say: "Many people were injured, and Miss Lin was frightened. I wanted to ask the military doctor for some tranquilizers, but he said that without your permission..."
"I allow it," Jie Chen interrupted her before she could finish. "Next time, don't come to me for such trivial matters. Is that enough? You can leave now."
Xiangying opened his lips slightly.
In the end, he could only say "goodbye" with a cold face, turn around, close the curtain and leave.
The military supervisors and captains around Xie Chen looked at each other and dared not breathe.
The deputy general has always indulged and doted on the Princess of Western Zhou. Why is it that after the two were rescued, their relationship has become worse than before?
Xie Chen suppressed his complicated and irritable emotions and said, "Let's continue talking."
