Soldiers 3
"My eyes were caused by the captain."
There was shock in his eyes.
Seeing that the other party did not say much, Chen Wanyue continued, "I don't know why... Last night, he came to my tent and said he had something important to discuss, but suddenly he took out a sword and slashed at me."
"I remember today someone came out of a corpse and a living person suddenly appeared..."
"It was me. Perhaps the captain thought I was dead and threw me in the pile of bodies."
General Yan knew that lieutenant, and he was indeed a petty person. He even argued with him before. He thought he was just being high-spirited, but he never expected that he would do something like harming his brothers!
Although he is a general, he knows that every soldier under his command needs to be treated with sincerity.
But you can't just listen to one person.
"Do you have any evidence?"
Chen Wanyue smiled and said, "I will be able to give you evidence soon."
Her eyes were wrapped.
General Yan put the cleaned sword aside, thought for a moment and nodded: "If the situation is true, I will punish the captain."
"The general is wise."
Early the next morning, the military camp checked in and prepared to return to Beijing.
Shen Wanyue walked with other injured soldiers, some of whom had eye injuries like her.
The journey was tiring. If it was her previous body, she would have been out of breath before she had walked a kilometer. Fortunately, Lu Zhiyao had a good physical condition, and she didn't feel very tired until night fell.
During the break, she went to see the doctor who helped Lu Zhiyao join the army.
The doctor's surname is Lu, and he is a relative of Lu Zhiyao's mother. Lu Zhiyao has the same surname as her mother.
She had eye problems, so she met a wounded soldier who needed to see a doctor on the way and went with him.
"Remember to change the medicine again before leaving tomorrow morning." Doctor Lu had just finished bandaging a wounded soldier, and when he saw Lu Zhiyao coming over, he immediately stepped forward, "Zhiyao, you're here."
He stood up from the ground, clapped his hands, and personally took Shen Wanyue over to sit on the bench: "Hurry up and sit down, are you here to change the medicine?"
Chen Wanyue could only feel her own pulse. Fortunately, Lu Zhiyao was in very good health and recovered well, but his eyes needed further check-up.
"Um."
"Tell me if it hurts." Doctor Lu didn't waste time and took off the cloth. "I heard you have done a great service!"
"But I lost both eyes."
The atmosphere became heavy.
Doctor Lu continued, "Didn't you want to serve the country before? This time your wish has come true."
Chen Wanyue arrived quite late. Apart from some wounded who could not be moved, only she and Doctor Lu were left.
"Doctor Lu, I want to tell you something." Seeing that it was almost time, she lowered her voice.
Doctor Lu saw how cautious she was, looked around, chose a corner and took her there: "Go ahead."
"I don't know if you believe me or not, but what I said is true." Chen Wanyue said, "The captain wants to kill me."
"What! You can't talk nonsense." Doctor Lu controlled his voice.
"Did you know that I was among the dead soldiers? I dared not make it public. I wanted to obtain evidence and make the captain pay the price."
Doctor Lu slowly digested the news and figured it out. Everyone has jealousy in their hearts.
"...You want me to help you?"
"Hehe, I want to ask you for some medicinal herbs." Shen Wanyue's eyes were covered, making it impossible to see her expression, making her look even more mysterious.
Doctor Lu nodded: "Okay, you tell me and I'll get it for you. But the army is short of medicinal materials and may not be able to gather them all." He didn't ask any more questions.
"Thank you." Shen Wanyue's voice became hoarse, "Really."
Doctor Lu sighed and put his hand on her shoulder: "No need to thank you. You've suffered a lot this year."
The medicinal herbs that Chen Wanyue wanted were all very common, but they were still a little short of something.
After taking them, she returned to her tent, ground them into powder and packed them away.
Doctor Lu said that as for the other herbs, we can wait until we get to the next location and ask the locals if they have them.
The plan will have to wait a few more days.
After two or three days' journey, they finally reached a crowded place, and the soldiers' food was slightly improved.
Shen Wanyue also got the herbs she wanted and went to find the general.
"Do you have any evidence to bring to me?"
Chen Wanyue smiled and said, "Seeing is believing. General Yan, are you willing to come with me?"
General Yan agreed.
No one knew about this plan except himself, not even Dr. Lu.
——
The captain was very angry and had been in a bad mood for the past few days.
Especially when Lu Zhiyao came to him.
"Captain, someone is looking for you."
"Who is it?"
The soldier replied: "It seems his name is Lu Zhiyao...Oh, the one who took the head."
"Hmph! Let him in!" I just happened to have no place to vent my anger, and yet he dared to come to my door!
Chen Wanyue walked in with a stick in her hand, tapping the ground: "Captain, you are in a good mood, you are still drinking."
"Huh, you, a blind man, can still see?"
She smiled and said, "The aroma of wine is so strong that it's hard for me not to know it."
"You still dare to look for me? You really don't want to live anymore, Lu Zhiyao, don't be so arrogant. You are just a small soldier now. Even if you have made contributions, your status is still there. If I kill you again now, I can walk out openly and honestly. At most, I will be beaten with a military stick, and you will die again!"
The captain spoke through gritted teeth, his eyes fierce.
Chen Wanyue didn't care at all, and even challenged him: "Captain, do you want to know why my chest injury healed so quickly?"
This is really curious. The captain narrowed his eyes, revealing a bit of inquiry.
I know my own strength. With the sword piercing my chest, I might not survive even if I stopped the bleeding urgently. How could I survive with an infection?
"Come here, I'll tell you." Shen Wanyue didn't make any other moves.
The captain was on guard, but he still disdained a blind man, so he stepped forward and said, "Tell me what you want to say."
"Oh, okay. This is a secret, I'll tell you right away." Chen Wanyue stood there neither humble nor arrogant, and threw the stick in her hand aside. "Is the captain relieved now?"
The captain approached: "Tell me.....Ah! What did you do....Ahem!"
As soon as she got close, Chen Wanyue threw the powder in her hand at the captain: "It's just dust."
"Ahem... It's itchy." The captain felt itchy all over. "Do you think I dare not kill you a second time?"
Chen Wanyue sneered: "How can the captain think so?"
She had wanted to slowly guide the captain to tell her the details of how he killed her, but the captain was so angry that he said, "Dig out your eyes is too light a punishment. If I had known that day, I should have broken your legs and chopped off your hands!"
"Captain, do you really think that if I die, you can take away the military merit openly? I don't want to hurt you. This powder is just made from ordinary hemp grass. You will stop itching after taking a bath." Shen Wanyue was of course lying.
"I'll kill you first!" The captain's body was itchy and unbearable. The hand holding the knife accidentally cut out and flew directly towards Chen Wanyue.
The two people in the tent were controlling the volume of their conversation so that only people close to the tent could hear it, and those nearby were all the captain's men.
Shen Wanyue dodged subconsciously, but her arm was still scratched. She suddenly raised her voice: "Spare my life, Captain!"
The soldiers outside the door had followed the captain for many years, so they would naturally not go in easily, but they did not expect the general to be nearby.
General Yan's face turned pale and he asked, "What are you doing, Captain? Why are you begging for mercy?"
Before the soldiers could stop them, General Yan and the soldiers around him walked straight in.
When he entered, he saw Shen Wanyue lying on the ground, blood gushing from her arm, and the captain's eyes were red and veins bulged on his forehead.
"Hold him down!"
General Yan was called by Chen Wanyue, who asked for evidence.
He heard everything the captain said.
He looked down at the captain who was trying to break free of his grip, "How disappointing."
The captain realized that he had been tricked.
He thought that even if Lu Zhiyao complained, General Yan would not care about such trivial matters.
If General Yan knew what he was thinking, he would say: How can killing someone be considered a small matter!
"General...General, he was the one who led me to say those things. I just said those things because I was so angry..." The itching on his body became more and more severe. "Look, he drugged me! He wanted to kill me!"
Shen Wanyue was helped up by the soldiers who came in. She was the best at pretending to be weak: "General, it's just ordinary powder, it will fall off after washing. I keep the powder with me for self-defense. If the captain doesn't attack me, I won't use it...hiss!"
"Go get a doctor." General Yan frowned and looked at the captain, "Also, take off his clothes. He is so evil-minded that he doesn't deserve to wear these clothes!"
"General! General! Believe me, it was really him who framed me!"
Chen Wanyue had the process, time, and location of what happened, and even the captain's oral account.
The captain just cried out that he was innocent.
Lu Zhiyao had been wearing a chest binder, and Shen Wanyue was not quite used to it, especially when she was injured.
It hurts so much.
"It will be bandaged quickly." The person who came was Doctor Lu. He blew air and quickened his movements.
"Thank you."
Doctor Lu smiled: "Fortunately, the general is a man who can distinguish right from wrong."
Chen Wanyue said: "With this, you can't kill the captain. What's the use?"
"...It would be good if he could lose all his face." Doctor Lu was not very good at comforting people.
"Thank you for bandaging me in the middle of the night."
"I haven't slept yet. You are also a wounded person. Isn't a doctor's job to save lives?"
The news of the captain's actions spread throughout the army the next day.
Some people think he deserves it, while others have other ideas.
Before leaving, many people came to General Yan to plead for mercy, and they kept saying the same thing: "Isn't Brother Lu still alive?"
What about the captain? He has not made any contribution but has worked hard over the years.
Request for leniency.
General Yan thought they were too noisy and kicked them all out.
This matter could not give Lu Zhiyao a satisfactory result after all. General Yan knew this from the beginning.
The guard who had been following him said, "General, we are about to set off."
General Yan pressed his temples, closed his eyes and asked, "The next place to stay is Uncle Fang's, right?"
"yes."
"I will go visit them. You can handle the routine military affairs. If there is any emergency, come to Uncle Fang's house to find me."
"yes."
