Xu Ziqing asked Liu Gang to repeat the matter again.
Wang Zhenhai spoke first, half-jokingly, "Old Xu! You can't let Colonel Liu take the man away! Catching the traitor is the work of Song Qi and Ling Yong. Are you trying to steal the credit from these two juniors?"
Xu Ziqing suddenly felt a little embarrassed. "Hey, Old Wang, do you think I'm that kind of person? I just saw that the children were too tired, so I thought I should just let Liu Chuwei handle it."
Wang Zhenhai spoke again, "Song Qi Lingyong! Can't you handle this? Why are you bothering Commander Xu with this matter? Get rid of him quickly! Don't let him get in the way. Just deal with him as needed!"
Song Qi and Ling Yong stood at attention and saluted, then quickly called a few people to take away all the rescued 'prisoners'.
Xu Ziqing saw that everyone had left, and he stood there, not knowing whether to leave or stay, and was a little dazed for a moment.
Song Zhiguo walked over and continued to distribute dry food and water to the new recruits. Xu Ziqing also continued to distribute food and water, thinking of countermeasures while doing so.
Song Zhiguo brought all the old members of the reconnaissance team, and Ling Yong directly handed these ten people over to them.
Then he and Song Qi walked aside and ate dry food while making fun of Xu Ziqing.
But the two men spoke in very low voices. Xu Ziqing called Liu Chuwei just now, which also told them that Liu Chuwei might be Xu Ziqing's man, so they also fully understood all the motives for why this mission came about.
Xu Ziqing wanted to use the Yue people to kill the three of them, but he didn't expect that not only were the new recruits very capable, but the land that was easy to defend and difficult to attack and that the military district had been fighting for a month without success was taken by the new recruits from two teams, and they also found those things.
As the two were saying this, they heard someone calling them from the tent behind them.
The two of them hurried over.
It was Liu Chuwei.
"Comrades, thank you for your hard work. You have truly made a great contribution this time. We have already verified the seized supplies. Tomorrow morning, you two can return to the capital with all the new recruits!"
Song Qi nodded, "But Colonel Liu, we have to take the captured supplies with us! These are the explosive gifts for our new recruits on their first battlefield, and some of them are related to the traitor we are investigating, so..."
Liu Chuwei stared at the two men for a moment. The way they stared at him as if they knew through him made him feel uncomfortable all over.
How could two young men have such an aura? But he was just following orders.
"But Commander Xu said that the supplies should stay here..."
Song Qi ignored Liu Chuwei and directly pulled Ling Yong out. "Colonel Liu, let's go talk to Commander Xu about this. I believe he won't refuse us."
"Wait, but..."
Before Liu Chuwei could finish his words, Song Qi turned around, his mouth twitching. "Colonel Liu, I remember the mission instructions said that our army had captured about fifty people. Why are there only ten? Are your team members not good enough, or is there something wrong with the intelligence? You're so anxious not to let us take away the seized supplies. Are you afraid we'll discover something?"
Liu Chuwei's face turned green, and he was speechless.
