Chapter 191 Go find your ex-wife
"The Simon army was completely destroyed, and King Jin escaped alone, his whereabouts unknown."
Fortunately, Lieutenant General Mu read it out loud, no longer keeping everyone in suspense.
"What? The 200,000-strong Simon army was completely wiped out?"
Some people don't believe it, some people think it's a joke.
But what was written on the note was true, so no one should be joking with them.
"It's true. Now I wonder what Qu Baowu is waiting for."
Nangong Min immediately had a plan in mind and then spoke it out.
In the blink of an eye, it was night, darkness fell, a crescent moon hid behind the clouds, and the earth was in darkness.
At the entrance of Shiya Village, teams of soldiers quietly left the village and quickly disappeared into the night.
Nangong Min led the team, with Ji Huanan at the vanguard, and their destination was the Laotian army camp fifty miles away.
At the Laotian military camp, Qu Baou spent several days here, but there was no news from Simon. He was so anxious that he could not sit still, and had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
"The general hasn't rested yet?"
Hao Wu just came out to get some fresh air and saw that the torch in Qu Baowu's barracks was still on, so he asked at the door.
"No, come in!"
Hao Wu lifted the curtain and went in. Qu Baowu, wearing armor, was sitting at the table drinking tea.
"Drink?"
Qu Baowu pushed a teacup in front of him, and Hao Wu took it respectfully.
One sip of tea and you'll feel refreshed instantly.
“Good tea!”
"Military Advisor Hao, there's still no news from Simon. I'm afraid..."
"General Qu, the King of Jin is a man of great promise. Perhaps no news is the best news."
Hao Wu drank the hot tea and felt refreshed. He then talked to Qu Baowu about the deployment of troops.
Their message delivery was by scouts, who might have been delayed on the way, so their speed was even slower than that of carrier pigeons.
Carrier pigeons are fast at delivering messages, but the biggest worry is that they might be shot down and all the news would be lost.
It is safe for scouts to deliver messages from one station to another, but sometimes they encounter enemies or natural disasters, and delays in messages are normal.
"So in your opinion, all we can do is wait?"
Qu Baowu's belly was like an eight-month-old pregnant belly. She felt uncomfortable sitting on the armchair for a long time, so she stood up and paced back and forth.
"General, Nangong Min doesn't dare to send troops to attack us now. We should wait for good news from the King of Jin, then immediately attack the Qianxi military camp and cooperate with the King of Jin to capture Yuanzhou. Then our chances of victory will be in sight!"
Qu Baowu thought the same, so he waved his hand to let Hao Wu leave, as he was going to sleep.
People who are afraid of death have several things in common. One is fear of death, and the other is sensitiveness.
It is also because of the fear of death that they are particularly sensitive, which is also one of the magic weapons that have enabled them to escape from danger countless times.
After being ordered to leave, Hao Wu reluctantly put down his teacup and left.
In the dead of night, countless figures emerged from the forest and slowly approached the camp.
Just as Hao Wu had just laid down, a knife was suddenly placed against his neck. He was about to shout when he felt a pain in his neck. The person who came to him looked as tall as a giant. He was curious and wanted to speak and call for help, but his throat made a hollow gurgling sound, as if a pipe had been cut and the air was leaking out.
Then he turned his eyes to the side and saw his body. The headless body was kneeling on the ground, shaking a few times and falling to the ground. There was a bloody hole in the neck between the shoulders, bleeding.
Then his eyes went dark and he could no longer see!
"Let's go find Qu Baowu!"
When I heard this, my consciousness was already blurred, and then I knew nothing!
After killing Hao Wu, Bai Erlang came out and went to the next door. He guessed that the military advisor was there, and the general's tent should be next door.
He made a gesture to Ji Huanan, and in the dim torchlight, two men suddenly rushed out from behind, one on the left and one on the right, wiping the neck of the guard at the door.
"Who?! Someone come here..."
Qu Baowu on the bed tried to stand up, but unfortunately, he had difficulty in doing it as he wanted to. His big belly pushed him down heavily on the bed. When he struggled to turn over and sit up, a shiny big knife was already on his neck.
"Honest man, spare my life! Honest man, spare my life!"
Qu Baowu's first reaction was not the enemy attack, but which bandits were so bold as to sneak into the military camp to make a fortune.
"If a good man wants gold and silver, I will give it to him. There is a cloth bag under my bed. You can take the gold and silver inside. Just let me go!"
The people of the Great Zhou are so scary that even bandits dare to sneak into the military camp!
"I want your money, and I want your life too!"
Ji Huanan said viciously that he was wondering why Qu Baowu didn't recognize him after dealing with him several times.
Then, seeing Qu Baowu's eyes squeezed into slits, he understood. It turned out that this idiot had never paid any attention to the people who were against him!
That’s right, when I was fighting with his men before, it was strange that I could see his appearance clearly with his squinty eyes!
Qu Baowu was trembling all over. Fearing death, he tried to resist, but the knife went deep into his flesh as soon as he moved. His neck was bleeding!
"Good man, good man, we have no grudges in the past or in the present, there is no need to kill us all, right?"
Qu Baowu couldn't struggle and had to beg for mercy.
"No grudges or hatred? You don't stay in your own country, but come to our land to make trouble, and you still dare to say that there are no grudges or hatred!"
"You, you are not heroes of the outlaws?"
"Open your eyes and see clearly. I am Ji Huanan, the deputy general of Qianxi in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and this is General Bai's son, Bai Xianfeng!"
"You, you can't kill me. I know Simon's plan. As long as you let me go, I'll tell you everything!"
When Ji Huanan heard this, he signaled Bai Erlang to tie him up.
Bai Erlang found a rope in his tent and tied him up.
Afraid that he would shout, they pulled off his smelly socks and stuffed them into his mouth, choking him and making him roll his eyes.
"Drag him up and go!"
The two men dragged Qu Baowu out of the tent, and a fight had already broken out outside.
"General, General, the enemy is attacking!"
Several small leaders came running over in a hurry, but they didn't know that their backbone, General Qu, had become a prisoner.
"Don't come over here, put down your weapons, or he will die!"
Bai Erlang put the knife to Qu Baowu's neck. Ji Huanan pulled off his smelly socks. Qu Baowu's mouth was free, and he immediately shouted, "Put down your weapons, put them down!"
While the small leaders were hesitating, Bai Erlang's knife bit into Qu Baowu's flesh, and he immediately screamed.
"How dare you! You don't even listen to the general's words!"
Although the Qubawu people are timid, they still have some military power.
The small leaders looked at each other and slowly put down their weapons.
Ji Huanan immediately stepped forward and tied up several people.
"General, General, save us!"
Ji Huanan did the same thing, tearing off their cloth shoes and stuffing them into their mouths.
When it was hot, the soldiers only wore straw sandals, only the small leaders had cloth shoes, and only Qu Baou, the general, had socks to wear.
Due to the hot weather and the long journey, the inside of the cloth shoes were already soaked with sweat, and the outside was soaked with mud and water. They were dry and wet again, wet and dry again. You can imagine how it felt.
