Liu Wei is not very old, and his family is related to Mr. Xue, so as soon as the accident happened, Mr. Xue sent him to get reinforcements!
It is always safer not to face the battlefield head-on!
But Liu Wei didn't expect that when he brought back his troops, Xie Zhenting was dead!
Others don’t know why Xie Zhenting is here, but Liu Wei knows!
He saw with his own eyes that Mr. Xue was plotting against Xie Zhenting and using him as bait to fish...
"Thank you, Chief. Woo woo..."
Liu Wei cried very sadly thinking about Xie Zhenting's great achievements.
Xie Zhenting heard: "!!!"
He...died miserably?
Where did this hammer come from!
Xie Zhenting raised his hand without hesitation and pushed away the person who was lying on him and howling!
Liu Wei: “!!!”
Looking at Xie Zhenting opening his eyes and sitting up, he was completely shocked!
"Fake... fake corpse!"
Liu Wei exclaimed, got up and ran towards the large group behind him.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
They were all soldiers transferred by Mr. Xue from other places. Although they had never seen Xie Zhenting in person, they were very familiar with Xie Zhenting's name!
Look at him now...
Although the blood has dried up, one can still vaguely see how serious the injury is. To be honest, it would be difficult for anyone to survive with such injuries...
For a moment, many people followed Liu Wei and retreated. Only Chen Ziqian, who was standing in front of the team, looked at Xie Zhenting with burning eyes.
He was the leader of the reinforcements and the head of the neighboring military region in the northwest. He had heard that there was a good talent that Elder Xue was cultivating, but unfortunately he had never had the chance to meet him. Today, he finally met him. Chen Ziqian couldn't help but feel a little excited, and looked at Xie Zhenting with a look of scrutiny...
Xie Zhenting: “!!!”
When he heard the word "corpse", the corner of his mouth twitched.
After recognizing Liu Wei, he immediately rolled his eyes.
He wondered who was the one who was startled. It turned out to be Elder Xue's great-grandson. When this guy first joined the army, he was so scared that he cried when he saw him training. He was very timid, but he was smart and had a strong ability to adapt to changes...
Xie Zhenting shifted his gaze away from Liu Wei and saw Chen Ziqian standing in front of the crowd. He immediately stood up and saluted.
"Hello, Commander Chen!"
"Okay! Thank you, Chief!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Ziqian immediately said, "We are of the same rank, so please don't be polite, Commander Xie. I see that you are seriously injured, but you just went through a battle, right?"
"Um!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Zhenting briefly described the battle situation in the town.
Chen Ziqian's heart was tense when he heard this, "Where are Elder Xue and the others now?"
"In the tunnel of the deserted town!"
As Xie Zhenting spoke, he turned around and led Chen Ziqian back the way they came. "I checked the entrance to the tunnel before I left town. It was sealed tightly. They should be fine."
"Uh-huh!"
Chen Ziqian nodded as he heard this, and said to his confidants, "Pass the message down. Whatever you just heard, keep it to yourself. Whatever you see later, keep it to yourself. Whoever dares to leak the news will be brought to court-martial!"
Chemical weapons!
Xie Zhenting actually used chemical weapons at a critical moment!
Chemical weapons are now strictly prohibited in warfare. No matter who uses them, they will be brought to a military court!
But Xie Zhenting's identity is not ordinary!
He was the person cultivated by Mr. Xue, and he was also a great contributor to their Xia country. He had just returned home after escaping death and put down Wang Hongliang's rebellion. If he was sent to a military court, wouldn't that chill the hearts of all the soldiers of the Xia country?
This matter must be considered carefully. Chen Ziqian did not dare to be vague. While ordering everyone to keep silent, he asked Xie Zhenting in detail about the situation in the deserted town.
He originally thought that when he led his army to the battle, he would face a fierce battle. After all, the opponent was Wang Hongliang, the commander of the Northwest garrison. He did not expect...
Xie Zhenting actually told him that Wang Hongliang and the Northwest garrison troops he instigated were all dead!
Died from chemical weapons!
Chen Ziqian: “!!!”
I couldn't help but have the same idea as Mr. Xue!
The Yangtze River's waves behind push the waves in front forward!
These old people are going to be beaten to death on the beach by this kid!
"Don't worry, Xiao Xie. I will discuss the chemical weapons matter with Mr. Xue and find a way to help you cover it up!"
Chen Ziqian was in his forties. After a conversation, he became familiar with Xie Zhenting. He patted his chest and assured, "No matter what, this matter will not affect your future, so don't worry!"
"Thank you, Commander Chen!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Zhenting first thanked him, and then said, "But so many people died in the battle of Huangcheng, I'm afraid it will be difficult to cover it up. It's okay, I'm willing to go to the military court!"
"But if you go to court-martial, your future will be…"
Chen Ziqian sighed, looking regretful.
"The future is not important. We must fight the battles that need to be fought!"
Xie Zhenting smiled and changed the subject.
A moment later, Liu Wei took advantage of the time when Chen Ziqian gave orders and got next to Xie Zhenting.
"Thank you, Chief. Are you really not dead?"
Xie Zhenting: "Are you looking forward to my death?"
"No! I didn't! I just saw so much blood on you and thought you must have been killed by my uncle..."
It would have been fine if Liu Wei hadn't said that, but once Liu Wei said that...
Xie Zhenting was suddenly speechless.
It was obvious that the teacher had tricked him!
The key point is that now he has to bring people to dig him out!
If I could…
Xie Zhenting really doesn’t want to go!
Let the teacher who cheated his students to death stay in the underground, but...
no!
He was just thinking about this idea!
The teacher was his teacher after all, the person he would risk his life to protect, not to mention there were so many innocent soldiers...
After a night of fierce fighting, we see the deserted city again.
There were corpses floating all over the deserted city, and the sight of a bloody battlefield made those soldiers who had never actually been on a battlefield feel nauseous.
After Chen Ziqian ordered someone to deal with the body, he followed Xie Zhenting to the tunnel entrance.
The collapsed dry well is the only entrance to the tunnel.
While Xie Zhenting was leading his men to dig, Gu Nanzhi, who was thousands of miles away, was scooping water from the ground...
That’s right!
Just scoop water!
After a while, the rain outside became heavier and heavier. Gu Nanzhi, who had recovered his strength, could not lie down anymore, so he put on his straw raincoat and went downstairs.
The crops in the Xie family's private plot have been harvested, but the crops in the village are still being harvested. As the rain gets heavier, water accumulates in the fields, and it is difficult to carry the corn out. The old village chief can only mobilize the women in the village to drain water from the fields...
It is better in places with uneven terrain, and it is easier to release water, but it is much more difficult to release water in flat areas!
Some women used buckets and some used basins to scoop water from the ridges...
"Zhenting's wife! Zhenting's wife, please go home quickly! Someone is coming to your house!"
Just as Gu Nanzhi was desperately scooping water, he heard neighbors shouting on the muddy road in the distance.
“Here it comes!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Nanzhi responded, threw down the basin and ran out.
She thought that the reinforcements sent by Mr. Xue had arrived, but when she returned home she found that it was actually a middle-aged couple who came.
