Enraged, Meng Meng punched Xie Nanfeng: "You're at it again, aren't you? You're the one who caused this commotion!"
Xie Nanfeng was carrying someone when Meng Meng attacked, so he couldn't dodge and took a punch, knocking him to the ground.
Lu Zheng knew that Xie Nanfeng had changed a lot compared to before, and asked, "Why did you suddenly bring a woman out?"
Judging from her clothing and hair, Xie Nanfeng was carrying a girl.
Xie Nanfeng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "General Zhou, Brother Meng, I didn't lust after her. This girl is from the Great Zhou and was crying for help in the Great Zhou language. She was being humiliated by Achaer. I couldn't stand it and wanted to take the opportunity to kill Achaer, but I failed. When I left, I carried her out."
Ashar is the Izumo general who recently fought against them.
Meng Meng spat angrily: "These bastards, where did they kidnap our Great Zhou's girls from? They're such scoundrels! If they're so tough, they should come and fight us men! What's the point of kidnapping girls!"
Lu Zheng patted Meng Meng on the shoulder and then reached out to help Xie Nanfeng up.
Xie Nanfeng glanced at the unconscious girl on the ground and asked, "General Zhou, what should we do now?"
Lu Zheng sighed: "We've been discovered today, and their camp will definitely be on high alert afterward. We won't be able to succeed. Since we've rescued her, let's take her back! We'll ask her about the situation when she wakes up."
Xie Nanfeng lowered his head and knelt on one knee: "General, because of my recklessness, your plan failed. I beg you to punish me!"
Lu Zheng: "Once we get back to Kuncheng, go to the Northern Camp and collect one hundred lashes!"
Xie Nanfeng clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Yes, General!"
Meng Meng wanted to persuade him that one hundred lashes were too much, but considering the current situation, which was not a friendly interaction but military conduct, he had to follow military regulations and could not break them.
Meng Meng patted Xie Nanfeng on the back: "Hey Xie, I'm starting to like you today. If you do less of this mess in the future, I, Meng Meng, will consider you my brother!"
Back then, Xie Nanfeng slept with Meng Meng's fiancée. Although Xie Nanfeng didn't force her, and it was Meng Meng's fiancée who came to him of her own accord, it was still a great humiliation for Meng Meng. Therefore, in the past few years in Kuncheng, Meng Meng has ignored Xie Nanfeng.
After Xie Nanfeng rescued the Great Zhou girl today, Meng Meng slightly changed his opinion of him.
The three of them returned to the camp via a side path, with Xie Nanfeng carrying the girl, of course.
Upon arriving at the camp, Xie Nanfeng ushered the people out of his tent, and while everyone rested outside by making a fire, he put the girl inside the tent.
When Peng Sanlang saw that they had brought back a girl and hadn't accomplished anything, he didn't say anything. He just said that after the girl woke up and her identity was confirmed, she would go back to Kuncheng with the people escorting the grain.
Now that Chunnan City is here, Uncle Gu has planted a lot of grain, so the Peng family army is not afraid of a lack of food at all. They eat Uncle Gu's food first, and then wait for the imperial court to send grain. Anyway, they are not afraid that the soldiers will not have enough to eat as before.
The land of Izumo is not fertile, and it is generally not suitable for a protracted war. If it goes on for too long, they will not even be able to produce enough military rations.
The girl woke up that night. When she woke up, she was still in the camp. She was heartbroken, but when she found that although her clothes were not fully on, they covered her up. She sat up in surprise.
She remembered that before she lost consciousness, someone had tried to assassinate Azhar.
