Inside a temporary room in the military camp.

Zhang Tianhao had just pushed open the door and, by the faint moonlight, walked towards the bedside.

However, before he even reached the bedside, he smelled a faint fragrance, which startled him.

After all, the fragrance was too familiar; it belonged to none other than Xiaotian's own scent.

He couldn't help but laugh. After all, witnessing one's colleague being executed and then burned must have been incredibly stressful.

Oda has not shown any extra expression so far, which is quite remarkable.

After all, Xiaotian is just a twenty-year-old girl who has never seen much of the world.

What she saw in the military camp this time was probably the most dangerous she had ever been, and most importantly, she could lose her life at any moment.

He also understands Xiaotian's thoughts and even his psychological capacity to cope.

He didn't say much, but took off his clothes and hung them directly at the door, letting the wind dissipate the various smells on his body, and even the possible viruses.

After all, someone will be coming to collect the clothes soon, so I'll take them for a high-temperature wash. I'll boil them in hot water, then blow-dry them and bring them over.

After a quick wash, he crawled into bed and gently hugged the sleeping Xiaotian, a smile involuntarily spreading across his face.

"Xiao Tian!"

Feeling someone hugging her, she mumbled something, turned over, and hugged him tightly, pressing herself against him and snuggling into his arms, wanting to draw some warmth.

"Ugh!"

He didn't have the mind to think about anything else, so he simply hugged Xiaotian, gently closed his eyes, and prepared to sleep.

Before long, the room was filled with soft breathing sounds, and then the room became completely quiet.

……

“Miura, I think if the higher-ups investigate this matter, someone will definitely be held responsible. After all, of the two squads of Imperial Warriors, only a little over one squad remains.”

"Not only that, we don't know if anyone else here has been infected. If it's confirmed that there are, our military police force might be wiped out. I have to take the blame for this unexpected incident."

"No need, Sanyo. This is not our fault. It's because others are too cunning. We were infected by accident. Besides, did we release the virus? No, it was the Chinese who released it. So, we can announce to the outside world that the Chinese released the virus in Changfeng, trying to harm the people of the entire Changfeng County."

"Not only that, we can even pin all of this on the Northern Jiangsu Army. At that point, they'll have countless mouths to speak, but they still won't be able to explain themselves clearly. Don't you agree?"

"That's true, but putting this into practice is quite difficult."

"We can release this virus event to the world in plain text, and then it will be useless for them to come out and explain."

Miura remained calm, yet he uttered words that were breathtaking. Even he hadn't expected that this unexpected turn of events would yield such a positive result.

"Is there any other way?"

"No, or they simply don't report it. After everything is resolved, they just say that we fought a fierce battle with the Northern Jiangsu army and that so many people died. Anyway, a small, safe squad is stationed outside the city!"

After thinking for a moment, Miura still spoke with a serious expression.

“I still choose the second option. After all, the first option is unrealistic. It may seem like we are just creating trouble for the Soviet Union's army, but in the eyes of insiders, it is something we did ourselves. The Soviet Union's army does not have the conditions to research viruses, and even the Chinese do not have the conditions for this, while the Empire has used viruses on several occasions.”

"Alright, that's your choice. I believe you will choose the right approach."

"What we need to do now is to suppress this matter and prevent it from spreading further, especially within the military police force, where there can be no more deaths."

"Sigh, this is beyond our control. Let's try to minimize contact between people for now!"

Sanyo had no choice but to wait for time to pass and for this matter to pass.

……

Inside the headquarters of the Northern Jiangsu Group Army.

"Commander Zuo, our comrades who were scouting near Changfeng just reported that someone released a virus in Changfeng County. The entire military camp, even the military police unit, has been infected, and many people have died." "Do you think it could be a staged event by the Japanese?"

Chief of Staff Zhao was also sitting there, holding the telegram he had just received, and said with a serious expression.

"The young master is there, but there's still no news of him. Our people have been searching there, but there's been no news. We're still worried about the young master's safety."

Zuo Mingming took the telegram and read it carefully.

As he quickly read through the telegrams, his expression became somewhat strange, even fascinating, after all, the Japanese had also gotten themselves into trouble.

"No, I think this virus incident was an accident. However, the Japanese never expected that they would be infected themselves. You know, only the Japanese have the virus, we don't."

"If I'm not mistaken, these viruses were originally intended to be used against us, but someone discovered them and tried to eliminate them beforehand. However, an accident occurred, causing the Japanese and even the puppet troops to be infected."

As Zuo Mingming spoke, she gently tapped the table, and even her eyes showed a hint of disbelief.

"It's just that these puppet troops and Japanese troops didn't expect this!"

"You said the Japanese were caught off guard? It seems there are people in Changfeng County who don't want the Japanese to have an easy time!"

"There are quite a few people, but they would never easily use something like a virus bomb. After all, getting close would be tantamount to suicide, so no one dares to make a move, understand?"

Chief of Staff Zhao nodded, then looked somewhat puzzled.

"Old Zuo, do you think it could be the young master's doing?"

"It's somewhat like the young master's doing, but not entirely. After all, the young master wouldn't easily poison the puppet troops. He would either wipe them out or let them go and then incorporate them into his army."

"There is no such method to deal with the puppet troops, so this is likely an accident."

"An accident, an accidental poisoning, this is great, this is great!"

"Yes, have your men keep a close eye on Changfeng County. Although we haven't found the young master for so long, I suspect he's probably in Changfeng County, and might even have found us two more wives."

"No way!"

"It's very likely. The young master won't have any problems in other areas, but he seems to have some trouble controlling this aspect. However, we can understand that the young master is under a lot of pressure."

"But what's there to look for in a small county town!"

"No, we don't understand young master. He must have his reasons for doing this!"

"That's right, young master has his own purpose!"

Chief of Staff Zhao also let out a breath, then continued to review the documents and had people make arrangements.

"By the way, Lao Zhao, what do you think about us pushing the army forward by about ten miles?"

"That's not a good idea. If we push forward, our escape route might be blocked."

"That's absolutely right!"

After thinking about it, Zuo Mingming gave up on the idea.

"My sister-in-law Qiao'er asked about me again today. How should I answer that?"

"Just say that the young master has gone on a secret mission and there is no contact with the outside world for the time being."

That's all I can say, sigh!

"When the young master returns, he can handle it himself."

"Right!"

After saying that, a knowing smile appeared on their faces. (End of Chapter)
