stand back, let me come

Chapter 1454: Starving to death (Part 1454) [Seeking monthly votes]

Play is play, jokes are jokes, but the safety of the master is not to be joked about.

Yun Ce quietly stepped forward to Shen Tang. Su Shiyilu, a shrewd man, did not want to miss the opportunity to gain favor without any effort, so he also took a step. Unfortunately, he bumped into Yang Ying halfway, and he had never bumped into Yang Ying who was using subtle tricks.

Stumble slightly in the opposite direction.

This made Su Shiyilu's old face distorted in the darkness.

He glared at Yang Ying unhappily and bared his teeth.

In this regard, Yang Ying's response was understated. He just glanced back and raised his thick eyebrows slightly, with a look that said "Old Deng is not convinced"?

Su Shiyilu: "..."

He was glared back at, and was very upset, but he couldn't get angry on the spot. Firstly, it would be easy to expose his identity, and alerting the enemy was a small matter, but it would be easy to be bullied if it ruined Shen Tang's good mood; secondly, this Yang Ying was a confidant of Shen Tang's personal guards, and was far from being comparable to the surrendered generals who were born in Wuzhou and had fought with Shen Tang in his early years.

On this point, Su Shiyilu is still self-aware.

If he had a fight with Yang Ying, Shen Youli would definitely favor Yang Ying.

In addition to the above reasons, there is also the fact that he sensed an unspeakable danger in Yang Ying - the intuition of a brave warrior is much more useful than that of a scholar, and can save lives at critical moments.

Therefore——

He is a man of great character and does not bear grudges, and does not argue with Yang Ying about right or wrong.

In a split second, Su Shiyilu's heart was in a state of confusion, and the two groups of deserters successfully joined forces. The two groups did not get along well, and the group that came later first glanced at Shen Tang and his group with fierce eyes and asked, "What are you doing?"

"We are hungry and want to grab some food."

They hadn't eaten for a long time, so even a piece of savory boiled pork sprinkled with salt was a rare delicacy in heaven and earth, not to mention the carefully roasted lamb skewers sprinkled with spices? Even if their tongues were numb from the heat, they couldn't bear to spit it out.

Seeing the sheep bones and sheep skins scattered all over the ground, as well as seven or eight live sheep that had not yet been slaughtered, he swallowed hard, his mouth dry and asked, "What's going on with these people?"

"He stole the sheep and ate it all by himself. It just happened to be a good deal for us."

As he swallowed big mouthfuls of mutton, his hunger was greatly appeased, and the deserter regained his senses. Many doubts came to his mind - for example, when two armies were fighting, meat was a precious resource, so how did a dozen unarmed men secretly come out to roast meat here? This place was not far from the Kangguo camp, what if they were discovered by the night patrol soldiers?

This is not a sheep!

It’s just that these doubts cannot be expressed easily.

Otherwise, the first to bear the brunt would not be these Kangguo idiots, but himself. Thinking of the experience of the past month, even he felt a little nauseous, and his stomach and intestines subconsciously twitched and spasmed. He could only suppress his inner panic, delay time, deal with this matter, and pray that these idiots were really stealing sheep and food as he guessed, and not someone from Kangguo.

The deserter who was held accountable didn't believe it: "Really?"

"I dare not lie. We just showed our knives and they surrendered. They look so naive..." He leaned close to them and whispered, "I suspect they are not ordinary soldiers. They are probably the children of high-ranking officials in Kang State."

This statement sounds reasonable.

The children of some nobles and high-ranking officials want to quickly gild themselves, and what better place than on the battlefield? Relying on the protection of their ancestors and the power of their fathers, it is easy for them to get a nominal position in the rear of the army, where they will not be exposed to the wind and sun, nor will they be used in the charge.

They leave all the dirty work to their minions, who only come out to seek credit and reward. They just idle away their time, waiting for others to win a battle and share a piece of the spoils. They are all very pampered.

The deserter spoke with some sincerity and resentment. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot from these spoiled officials' children. The deserter who came to ask for accountability also lowered his guard upon hearing this, and looked at Shen Tang and others with contempt.

One cannot imagine what one has not seen.

The sons of noble families were more pampered than each other, how could they endure the hardships of the military camp? In the past, when the war was going smoothly and there was plenty of food and grass, there would indeed be young men from noble families who came to gild themselves and ran out to eat secretly.

The deserters thought that if the Central Allied Forces were like this, Kangguo would be the same.

So, temporarily put aside your doubts.

He whispered, "Take these back."

Share it with everyone to try and replenish their energy.

After saying that, he swept a cold gaze over Shen Tang and the others, as if hesitating whether to kill them on the spot or keep them as bargaining chips.

He hesitated, and after thinking it over, he put a knife on Yun Ce's neck and shouted, "Tell me the truth, who are you from?"

Whether to kill or not depends on the identities of these young masters.

Yun Ce is the most scholarly among the generals. Perhaps due to the nature of his martial arts, not only are his facial features handsome and pretty, but his skin is also as white as if it were covered with powder. He really looks like a gilded young man. Yun Ce did not expect this man to be so reckless.

After being stunned for a moment, it became more and more in line with the character.

He was also smart and said in a hollow voice: "Yun Ce is my father."

Shen Tang and his group: "..."

Isn't this template here?

For a while, everyone either recognized themselves as the father or mother, or asked their colleagues to have children without pain. These deserters were just trusted soldiers, not deputy generals. It was good enough to know the surnames of the high-ranking officials in Kangguo, but how could they know the specific ages of these high-ranking officials? There is a common stereotype in the minds of the lower-level Wuzu: status = ability = experience = age.

It is normal for high-ranking officials to have children in their early twenties.

"...Is it possible that I caught a big fish by accident?"

At this moment, greed prevailed over reason.

"Tie them all back."

It was fate that these young masters fell into their hands. Perhaps they could use them as bargaining chips to save their lives at the critical moment.

Seeing that it was still early, Shen Tang cooperated in the scene.

other people:"……"

Su Shiyilu rolled his eyes inwardly.

Tucao: [These little soldiers are really going to the sky. For more than ten years, many heroes in the world have never been able to do something in their dreams, but they actually accomplished it. Let Shen Youli be imprisoned...]

Shen Tang quietly communicated with everyone.

[What a pity, the recorder is not here at the moment.] If the recorder was here, the gossip of Kangguo's history would have been added with a rich and colorful chapter, [The king and a group of important ministers were tied up, and they went to the enemy's lair and attacked Huanglong directly!]

Su Shiyilu: [Speak more quietly, is this glorious? ]

Shen Tang asked him with a smile: [Not fun?]

Su Shiyilu: [……]

This is not a matter of whether it is fun or not. The problem is that if this matter gets out and his name is recorded in history in this way, even if he is lying in a coffin, he will break the coffin lid, sit up and curse that he is not a prisoner.

If the master is sick, don't take his subjects with him.

Su Shiyilu closed his eyes to hide his despair.

Shen Tang thought the atmosphere was not good enough, and he added fuel to the fire with a smile: [Let me think, is your mood right now in line with that witty saying - Xiahou Dun looked at Louis XVI and couldn't see the end at a glance? ]

Su Shiyilu suffered from lack of education: [What? ]

What kind of weird quip is this?

Others: [……] Although I don’t really understand, I still feel that I shouldn’t laugh.

The group of "captives" were led to a hidden valley a few miles away in a relaxed mood. There were more than a hundred people hiding here. Judging from the broken armor they wore, they were obviously the central allied guards on the stone fort. Shen Tang put away his playful thoughts.

She secretly exchanged glances with Yun Ce and several other generals, and silently changed her position to protect the relatively weak scholar in the middle.

Even if a conflict occurs, nothing will happen.

Shen Tang also rejected Feng's suggestion of being protected with her eyes. She was the ruler of a country, but she was also a military commander who could fight against tens of thousands of people!

[It seems that they have stumbled upon a big fish by accident. Are these people preparing to burn their boats and attack the camp at night? ] Shen Tang secretly sensed the aura of these people. They were all brave warriors. The weakest one was also a low-ranking official. They were the elite among the elite in the army.

It is understandable that they carefully selected the target for a night attack.

Shen Tang secretly thought that he was lucky.

Even if you can't sleep late at night and are having a team-building barbecue, you might still run into a dead rat.

The scribe who used telepathy to gather intelligence: [……]

The development of the matter is slightly different from what the master had expected.

The group of people who went out brought back live sheep, which alarmed the biggest leader, who was also an old acquaintance of Shen Tang recently - the commander-in-chief sent by the Central Allied Forces to guard the Stone Fort front. A tall and burly black figure walked out of the shadows, and the moonlight illuminated half of his face.

"Brought back the sheep?"

"And did you catch the thieves' children?"

The first question was a little hesitant, and the second question was clearly in a high-pitched tone, with a hint of ecstasy. Until he came over with big strides to see what the children of Kangguo's high-ranking officials looked like, his footsteps stopped halfway. A pair of big copper bell eyes almost bulged out of their sockets!

It was dark, the moon was bright, and the wind was strong.

The time of the world seemed to have been paused.

Under the moonlight, the thick rope that bound the woman's hands loosened without warning and fell at her feet. The almond-shaped eyes that could clearly reflect the world and the moon were slightly curved into a crescent, and the corners of her lips slowly blossomed into a smile that could captivate everyone: "General, how are you?"

Before he could finish his words, Yun Ce and his men took the initiative.

As several streams of martial energy were approaching his face, the commander of the Central Allied Forces suddenly woke up from his dream. He turned around and tried to dodge, but he had no choice but to take it forcefully. He was so frightened after such a series of attacks that he broke out in a cold sweat.

The panic in his heart was greater than the rage of being betrayed - yes, he suspected that there was a traitor among him. If there was no traitor who tipped off, how could the people of Kangguo kill him by such a coincidence?

Why didn’t he show up earlier or later, but came to kill us at this very moment?

He gritted his teeth and said, "You thief, stop being so arrogant!"

The blast from the close-range explosion blew away dozens of soldiers. Yun Ce and his men didn't care about martial ethics. They would rather gang up on the leader than fight him alone. They attacked the leader at the same time. The two lieutenants saw that the situation was not good and shouted, "General, we will help you!"

However, they were blocked by layers of cultural barriers that appeared halfway.

The only thing that puzzled Shen Tang was that group of warriors.

These soldiers did not immediately assemble their troops to fight the enemy. Instead, they seemed to have suffered a devastating blow - although it was not serious enough to scare them to death, their performance was indeed very poor. They did not look like they were ready to fight the enemy to the death.

If the two armies were facing each other, the Allied Commander could still hold out for a while with everyone's help, but he lost the initiative and was in a state of confusion, so it would be strange if he could escape. Before Shen Tang could make a few moves, the Allied Commander was sent to her by Bei Ju using the secret technique of sealing Danfu.

Su Shiyilu took the opportunity to show off his power, kicked him in the knee, and shouted, "Since you are here to see the king, why don't you kneel down?"

Shen Tang used his martial energy to transform himself into a small stool.

Da Ma Jin Dao sat down and started the trial on the spot.

"I haven't seen you for a few days. Why do you look so miserable, General?"

The commander was captured alive by the enemy. The soldiers, who had no intention of fighting, surrendered without a fight. One of the two lieutenants died, and the other was seriously injured and looked like he was dying. On the other hand, the commander was only bruised and swollen, and his life was not in danger.

The sharp contrast made Shen Tang shake his head in his heart.

In this situation, she would have no face to live if she were the commander.

The Allied Commander said with a dark face: "Who betrayed me?"

Shen Tang pointed to the sky: "It is God's will that you die!"

God is sometimes kind.

The Allied commander didn't believe it and the veins in his neck bulged with anger.

"Stop playing tricks on me, what the hell is God's will?"

Shen Tang sneered: "Why are you angry? With a bunch of you with no morale, even if God doesn't let me take you in, your conspiracy to attack the camp at night will not succeed!"

This is simply a humiliation to Kangguo!

Not all combat forces can launch a night attack!

As soon as these words came out, the Allied commander was like a duck being strangled by the neck. His shouting and cursing stopped abruptly, and even his expression became a little distorted. Just from Shen Tang's words, he knew that there was no traitor around him. He took the initiative to shut up the microphone, but Shen Tang was not happy: "Did you hit a sore spot? Why is the old man silent?"

Qi Shan came over and whispered a reminder.

"It's not a night raid."

A question mark popped up in Shen Tang's mind: "What?"

"It was a night escape."

Shen Tang's almond-shaped eyes widened, unconsciously stabbing someone in the back: "... Yuanliang, do you want to listen to whether what you say is human? He is the commander of an army, and the battle has not even reached the end. Can he abandon his soldiers and run away with his personal soldiers overnight?"

The Allied commander was so angry that he wanted to die.

He was afraid of death and comforted himself before the action that he fled at night to save his life for future plans. As long as he was alive, there would always be a chance for revenge.

Unexpectedly, Shen Tang directly exposed the fig leaf.

A general of an army abandoned his troops and fled. This is a scandal that can be nailed to the pillar of shame. It will be infamous for eternity!

His expression was ferocious, but there was a hint of fear in his eyes.

Qi Shan was dissatisfied: "When did I ever say anything nonsense?"

Shen Tang: “…That’s true.”

He turned his head and looked at the commander: "Are you really a deserter?"

"I've fought in battles all my life, but this is the first time I've seen you behave so disgracefully. After all, I'm too young and inexperienced." She was amazed, rubbing salt into someone's wounds, and not forgetting to ask a soul-torturing question, saying the most heart-piercing words in the lightest tone, "I'm curious, how dare you be captured alive? If I were you, I would have cut off my heart meridians long ago and not lived in disgrace."

After these words came out, the Allied Commander was so angry that his blood was flowing backwards, and he was so ashamed and angry that he actually spat out a large mouthful of blood. Shen Tang took a step back in disdain, fearing that he would be stained with the other party's blood, which was too unlucky.

Pinching her nose and frowning, she said sarcastically, "Alas, the blood of a good general is purest; the blood of a deserter is turbid."

Xiahou Dun has one eye and Louis XVI has no head, so you can’t see the end of them at a glance.
