Chapter 135 Journey to the Northern Desert (10)
Chapter 135 Journey to the Northern Desert (10)
Zhao Ye's cheeks were flushed with an unusual redness, and half of his body was pressed against the barbarian behind him!
Ling Xiao deliberately leaned close to Zhao Ye's ear, his hot breath brushing against Zhao Ye's earlobe, startling Zhao Ye into widening his eyes. "General Ling, you jest! When did I ever say such a thing to you?!"
Under the sand table, Zhao Ye gripped Ling Xiao's arm, which was binding his slender waist, tightly with his hand!
Qianqianlu watched the extremely strange interaction between Deputy General Zhao Ye and General Ling, and couldn't help but let out a wicked laugh, "Hehehe, mwah, time to eat my sisters!!!"
Seeing that Young Master Luo was muttering to himself with his head down, Yang Chenqing assumed that Ziye's words had hurt him.
Yang Chenqing then took Qianqianluo's hand and walked around to the side of the generals to join the discussion!
Mei Ziye and General Wan, along with other former subordinates from the northern desert, were enthusiastically analyzing the military distribution map of the Hanba tribe!
General Ke Shouyu stroked his white beard, staring intently at the military distribution map of the Hanba tribe with a puzzled expression. "Something's not right?! When did the Hanba tribe's forces become so small?"
General Wan looked at the scattered Hanba tribe garrison on the newly made sand table and sneered, "What kind of schemes and tricks is the Hanba tribe up to now?"
Zhao Ye broke free from Ling Xiao's brute restraints and fled to Qian Qianluo's side. He spoke in a steady voice, "The Hanba tribe must already know about our spies planted in the shadows. This newly presented sand table might be incorrect!!!"
Zhao Ye's conjecture made Wan Qingli's expression turn solemn. He raised his hand and shattered the sand table in two, gritting his teeth as he said, "Ever since Hanba Tuozhang took over, our informants have often come and gone without returning, suffering heavy casualties!!"
Ling Xiao gave Zhao Ye a few cold looks before speaking slowly and deliberately, "On the contrary, the Hanba tribe barbarians are extremely skilled in disguise and beast taming, and our military intelligence is often leaked to them!"
General Ke Shouyu was also filled with worry. "Alas! Fortunately, General Luo has beheaded the fierce deputy general Mu Du Na Cuo under the city walls, which has bought our army some breathing time!"
Mei Ziye feigned ignorance of the military situation in the northern desert and the ambitions of the Hanba tribe, and asked in return, "General Ke, do the Hanba tribe often provoke us to this extent?!"
General Wan frowned, sitting on the general's chair in the main hall of the front garden, and replied to Mei Ziye in a teasing tone, "They launch a surprise attack every few days. If you didn't know better, you'd think they were lovers having a secret rendezvous!"
Qianqian, determined to die on the battlefield rather than return to the capital, immediately stepped forward and said, "General Wan, I request permission to personally go to the Hanba tribe to gather intelligence. I hope you will grant my request!"
Seeing that Young Master Luo had run away at some point, Yang Chenqing quickly stepped forward and pulled him behind him. "General, please calm down. Young Master Luo was just acting out of a moment of loyalty!"
Seeing that Qianqianluo was up to her old tricks again, Meiziye was so angry that she kicked her, yelling, "Go away! What are you meddling in for?!"
Ling Xiao then had an idea and chimed in, "Right now, the ruthless and magnanimous general is lavishly selecting concubines. With General Luo's stunning beauty and captivating charm, perhaps...?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ye immediately interrupted Ling Xiao's suggestion, "General, you absolutely mustn't!!"
General Ke Shouyu frowned and suggested, "The fierce and ruthless Tuozhang is cruel by nature. If we are not careful, he will be left to die in the wilderness. General Luo, you must not risk your life alone!"
Qianqianluo wanted to die for the greater good, which was better than dying an unjust death over some love affair.
After thinking it over, Qianqian slid down to her knees at Wanqing's feet, sobbing and crying, "If I, with my looks, could get close to this fierce and powerful leader and present him with the military formation map of the fierce and powerful tribe to our army, then I would gladly die!"
bang bang bang! ! !
To show her loyalty, Qianqian kowtowed three times!
Wanli squinted her peach blossom eyes, propped her chin on her hand, and looked impatiently at the young general at her feet who was crying with tears streaming down his face. She said with pity, "Then? I'm sorry to trouble you, General Luo!"
Happiness came so unexpectedly!!
Although Qianqianluo knew that General Wan had a prejudice against her, she was certain that she would agree to her suggestion!
However, she never expected that this guy wouldn't even bother to pretend and would agree to her suggestion to die right away!
No!? Wasn't this supposed to happen so suddenly?!
Wanqing saw Qianqian's wide, wet fox eyes, her nose twitching, and her incredulous expression was absolutely adorable!
Mei Ziye was both amused and exasperated. She slid down to her knees at General Wan's feet and said righteously, "General Wan, General Luo was just being stubborn for a moment!"
Yang Chenqing was filled with lingering fear after witnessing the horrific scene of General Zhao Da's head being separated from his body and the mountains of corpses of the Zhao family army!
Seeing that General Wan had a smile on her lips but a cold look in her eyes, Zhao Ye stepped forward and volunteered, "General Wan, I believe that I am the best person to go deep into the Hanba tribe!"
Seeing that Vice General Zhao Ye intended to go deep into the Hanba tribe on Qianqian's behalf, Wanqing nodded and said, "Hmm~ Vice General Zhao Ye has been stationed in the northern desert for many years and has also gone deep into the Hanba tribe many times, hmm!"
Knowing that Deputy General Zhao Ye's request was to avenge his enemy, General Ke Shouyu sighed and said, "Zhao Ye, General Zhao's body has been sent back to the capital for a proper burial in the imperial mausoleum. When you go to the Hanba tribe, you must not act rashly or lose your composure!"
After receiving the appointments from the two generals, Zhao Ye kowtowed to them with deep gratitude, his words tinged with sorrow, "Thank you both for your kindness!!"
Ling Xiao, with a cold face, glanced at the effeminate man on the ground, who was determined to die, and then left the hall with a flick of his sleeve!
Qianqianluo wanted to argue, but Yang Chenqing and Mei Ziye dragged her out of the main hall!
Mei Ziye cursed and yelled as she dragged him along, "Qianqianluo, are you crazy?! Instead of thinking about replying to His Highness the Crown Prince's letter, you dare to risk your life by going to the Hanba tribe? If I had known this would happen, I should have asked His Highness the Crown Prince to let you stay in the capital!"
Yang Chenqing stammered angrily, "Young Master Luo, how can you be so frivolous? The Hanba tribe is a place that devours people. You must never again volunteer on your own!"
Qianqianluo wasn't buying it and shouted, "So what?! Does that mean Lieutenant General Zhao Ye is entitled to risk his life to go to the Hanba tribe?!"
These heart-wrenching words left Yang Chenqing and Mei Ziye speechless for a long time as they looked at each other.
Mei Ziye puffed out her cheeks and kicked Qian Qianluo with her back foot, "Qian Qianluo, stop trying to judge me and Chen Qing with your 'guessing people' nonsense, hmph!!"
Enraged by these words, Mei Ziye shooed away from Qianqianluo and flew up to the roof, disappearing without a trace!
Yang Chenqing, pale-faced, released Qianqian Luo as if utterly exhausted, and left alone!
Qianqianluo watched as the two who had been chattering suddenly fell silent, and felt somewhat lost and bewildered!
