Chapter 251 Secret Message
Chapter 251 Secret Message
"If General Quan can't agree, I really have no one to use now!" Min Wenshan burst into tears again: "My poor child was killed by Zong Yanli's scheme. It's really painful!"
It was clear from Min Wenshan's words that he wanted to help Quan Liangpeng get to the top.
But Min Wenshan clearly valued Lang Weiye more before, why did he suddenly change his mind?
Quan Liangpeng couldn't figure it out, so he was still confused after leaving the tent. While he was thinking, he met Yingli who was about to come in with tea.
"Congratulations, General." Yingli slightly moved aside, knelt down to greet him, and said with a smile.
"How did you know you were here for good news?" Quan Liangpeng stopped immediately, frowned and looked at Yingli with a bit of astonishment in his eyes. You know, there was no one else in the tent just now, how could Yingli say such words to him?
Yingli smiled at Quan Liangpeng and said in a cheerful tone: "It's just a pity that the new king has succeeded to the throne and the general's position as the king's uncle is absolutely unshakable. General Quan is below the general, and he has no choice whether to give him a slap or a sweet date."
Quan Liangpeng frowned when he heard this: "What do you mean by that?"
Yingli lowered her eyes and said, "I have no other intentions, but seeing General Quan being played around by others without realizing it is really..."
Quan Liangpeng wanted to ask more questions when Min Wenshan's voice came from inside the tent. Yingli stopped talking and lowered her head slightly towards Quan Liangpeng, then turned around and went back into the tent. The last time she looked at Quan Liangpeng, there was a hint of smile in her eyes.
It was this look that made Quan Liangpeng tense up all over in an instant. He instantly thought of the soldier who had brought him medicine. No wonder there was such a good medicine with such a delicate and sweet taste. It turned out to be used by a woman. He had never expected that.
"General, what does this Miss Yingli mean?" Wen Datai's face was full of confusion and doubt. Isn't this Yingli the general's concubine?
"I don't know." Quan Liangpeng shook his head. He turned back to his tent and said thoughtfully, "But this woman doesn't look like a good person. Is she saying this today to sow discord between me and the general?"
"Since you are the general's concubine, how could you..." Why does it look like you don't want the general to have an easy time?
Wen Datai didn't dare to say much. He lowered his head and followed Quan Liangpeng back to the camp. As soon as he returned to the camp, Lang Weiye heard the news that the general wanted Quan Liangpeng to lead the vanguard and even wanted to merge his own troops into Quan Liangpeng's account.
This piece of news was simply devastating and tragic. Lang Weiye hadn't reacted yet, but his brothers were furious. They had suffered heavy casualties in this battle, and had fought bravely for the general. Now they were being treated like this and they couldn't stand it. They immediately made a scene and wanted to ask the general for an explanation. They also said that Quan Liangpeng must have said something in front of the general. They didn't expect that Quan Liangpeng was such a villain who took advantage of others' misfortune!
"Alright!" Lang Weiye stopped everyone, frowned and said, "This matter has not been decided yet, please don't make trouble and cause trouble for the general.
"Then just let it go?"
"How can that idiot Quan Liangpeng be qualified to lead the vanguard!"
"He wants us to join his team. I won't do that!"
"..."
There were debates in the military tent, and everyone was filled with dissatisfaction and anger at Min Wenshan's decision. There were also many puzzles as to why the general suddenly made such a change, as he had clearly intended to use his own general.
Their ideas were obviously not important. As the military order was issued, Quan Liangpeng was officially confirmed as the vanguard commander, which caused all kinds of discussions in the army.
In the golden autumn, the two armies fought several times, with mixed victories and defeats.
Zong Yanli gradually recovered and could now walk freely on the ground. At that time, she could not run freely, let alone carry a knife. An extremely hideous scar was left on her abdomen. Because it was too dangerous at the time, the wound was sewn by Feng Pei using needle and thread tempered by fire.
The stitches haven't been removed yet, and they seem to have already stuck to her flesh and blood.
Even if the stitches need to be removed in the future, a lot of blood foam will be pulled out...
Zong Yanli finally walked out of the tent, basking in the long-lost sun, squinting at the sky and enjoying the moment of tranquility that he survived.
"The army is returning to the camp!" The shouts came, heralding the end of another battle. Zong Yanli looked over and thought that today would be like the previous times without any major storms or waves. However, he did not expect that just after hearing the shouts, Monk's impatient shouts came from the front: "Call the military doctor quickly!"
"What's going on?" Zong Yanli's face darkened slightly. He turned to look at Gao Feilin and motioned him to go forward and take a look at the situation.
"General, Brother Quan..." Monkie stumbled over, his body covered in blood and blood, and even his helmet was lost. Such a strong man now had red eyes and a choked voice as he said, "The Qi army is such a villain, they actually set an ambush and killed our army from behind."
“Brother Quan was engaged in a battle with the army leading the troops, and was attacked from behind. He accidentally…” Monkie said in a slightly hoarse voice, “He accidentally had his right arm cut off by the enemy’s commander.”
"Who is it?" Zong Yanli's face suddenly turned gloomy.
"The former vanguard general, Lang Weiye." Monkey said immediately.
"Lang Weiye..."
Zong Yanli took a deep breath, the wound on his abdomen aching slightly. He paused for a long while before saying, "Ask Sang Caijie to go to the town to find a doctor immediately. Has the broken arm been recovered?"
Monkey wiped his face and nodded: "I found it!"
Zong Yanli nodded calmly, turned to Gao Feilin and said, "Although we have to prepare for the worst, we must also try to reattach the broken arm. Let Long Feiguang quickly send a message to his fourth brother Xiao Tianhe, asking him to return to save people."
"Go and post a recruitment notice to recruit famous doctors." Zong Yanli paused for a while and said, "If you are powerless to save the situation, you should sacrifice your broken arm without hesitation to save General Kuang's life."
"Remember, I want him alive!"
Monk and the others were extremely shocked. They nodded almost at the same time, then turned around and hurried away.
Zong Yanli stood where she was. The pain from the wounds on her waist and abdomen was so clear that it seemed to stimulate her nerves again and again. Although she knew that there would inevitably be casualties in the war, no matter how many times she heard the news of her brothers being injured, it would make her anxious as if a fire was boiling with oil.
She put her hand on the wound and couldn't help frowning and sighing, hoping so eagerly that the wound would heal.
Zong Yanli did not go to see Kuang Xingquan right away. First, because her injuries had not healed yet and she was moving around violently. Second, she did not want to cause trouble. If she went there again, her wound would burst open in a hurry...
Be it the military doctor, the doctor found in the town, or even Xiao Tianhe who rushed over, they were still unable to reattach Kuang Xingquan's severed arm.
After all this torture, the broken arm became completely necrotic and the wound gradually showed signs of decay. Finally, Kuang Xingquan cruelly asked Xiao Tianhe to cut out the rotten flesh and bandage the wound for him. This torture almost cost Kuang Xingquan half his life.
"Brother Quan..." Monkie, Huo Wenqi and others gathered around Kuang Xingquan's bed, looking at his missing right arm. They clenched their fists with tears in their eyes, their eyes full of pain and resentment.
"It's okay." Kuang Xingquan was completely out of danger. His fever had subsided and his wounds were bandaged. He glanced at Monk and the others, smiled at them in relief and said, "Although an arm was broken, at least I saved my life."
"The general is here!" As they were talking, a shout came from outside the tent. Meng Qi and his companions stood up and saw Zong Yanli walking into the tent.
Kuang Xingquan struggled to get up, and Zong Yanli raised his voice and said, "Stop struggling. I don't want to be polite with you in this state."
Zong Yanli was supported by Wen Nian and Gao Feilin as she walked the distance from the main tent. Every step she took involved her wound and now she was sweating profusely on her forehead. She immediately raised her hand to stop Kuang Xingquan's movements and asked about Kuang Xingquan's current injury condition.
"What a pity..." Zong Yanli's eyes were full of regret. It was difficult to find doctors. It was not that there were talented people who could reconnect broken arms, but how could they be found so easily in such a big world?
Besides, Zong Yanli and his men were still in a war-torn area, a place that many people tried to avoid.
If it could really be found easily and if the broken arm could really be reattached, how could they have a chance to do so in the territory of Qi State in the Northern Region?
Zong Yanli moved to sit beside him, frowned at the sight of Kuang Xingquan's injury, and said after a long pause, "How did Lang Weiye hurt you?"
Although Monkie and others had already said it, Zong Yanli still wanted to ask in detail.
Kuang Xingquan did not hide anything. He sorted out his thoughts and started from the battle between the two armies. When he mentioned Lang Weiye, he said, "The vanguard troops of Qi State were led by this man. Later, they might have suffered a loss at the hands of Wen Nian."
"After the second battle, the vanguard general of Qi was replaced by Quan Liangpeng." This is where the problem with Kuang Xingquan lies.
He never expected that Lang Weiye, the former vanguard who had retreated, would actually disobey the order of the commander-in-chief, withdraw his troops from the vanguard without authorization, and even attack him from behind.
Moreover, Lang Weiye was quite capable, and Kuang Xingquan was injured by him because he was not paying attention...
There was a hint of fear in his eyes. If he had not been in battle for many years and had quick reactions, and if he had not had the assistance of Jie Hu who shot arrows from the side, the knife would probably not have cut off his arm, but would have chopped off his head without hesitation.
Thinking about it now makes me shudder.
Zong Yanli's eyes grew darker as he listened, and then he looked at Kuang Xingquan and said, "I'll make a note of this."
"You take good care of your injuries, and I will get Lang Weiye's head for you." Zong Yanli stood up and said this. There seemed to be many comforting words on his lips, but when he thought about the fact that Lang Weiye was still living safely, Zong Yanli felt that it would not be too late to save those words for later.
"Thank you, General." The corners of Kuang Xingquan's eyes were slightly red, but he held back his tears and closed his eyes in peace.
Zong Yanli moved back and then summoned Long Feiguang. He asked more questions about the detailed situation on the battlefield. At this point, he was finally able to confirm that the information sent by the secret letter was absolutely true.
There was indeed internal turmoil in the Qi army. Lang Weiye and Quan Liangpeng were both capable generals under Min Wenshan.
Now that there is such an obvious fight and disagreement between the two, perhaps this is a good opportunity for Zong Yanli.
Zong Yanli summoned Sang Caijie and asked him to secretly send spies into the Qi army to bring them as much information as possible. Sang Caijie has not been idle at all over the years and has been cultivating confidants and secret agents.
It seems to have completely become an important part of Zong Yanli's spy and secret operations.
Since it is a battle between two armies, there cannot be no spies and agents. However, the cost of training these people is too high. If they are caught and our army's information is obtained, it will turn into a situation where one loses more than he gains.
So this is not an easy thing to do. Zong Yanli would not use it most of the time, but he has to use it in the current situation.
So when Zong Yanli called Sang Caijie to talk about this matter, Sang Caijie was not surprised at all and immediately started to prepare.
In the Qi army, Lang Weiye was punished for acting on his own, which made Min Wenshan very angry. It was also because of Lang Weiye's behavior that Min Wenshan seemed to be more convinced that Lang Weiye had ulterior motives, and he became more defensive against him.
Yingli was not idle either, as a woman's pillow talk is the most useful.
"General, another secret letter." When the secret letter appeared again, the stitches on Zong Yanli's wound had been removed. The wound had healed well, but the newly grown flesh was a little scary.
"Give it here." Zong Yanli reached out and took it.
But this time, the first time Zong Yanli saw the secret letter, his brows relaxed completely, a smile appeared on his lips and he raised his eyebrows.
Pei Liang looked at Zong Yanli's expression and asked in surprise, "General, do you know who wrote this secret letter?"
Zong Yanli nodded and handed the secret letter to Pei Liang, saying, "Take a close look at the handwriting used in this secret letter. Does it look familiar?"
Pei Liang didn't realize anything at first, but was stunned in surprise when Zong Yanli reminded him.
"This is..." Pei Liang raised his eyes and said, "Is it Mr. Mingxi? The lady?"
"That's right." Zong Yanli tapped the table with his fingers and said, "I originally had some guesses that were not confirmed, but now I can vaguely know from this secret letter that Mr. Mingxi is probably the beautiful concubine named Yingli who is currently by Min Wenshan's side."
"I thought it would be hard to find this person, but it turns out that Min Wenshan changed his identity and brought him with him."
Zong Yanli's face showed some doubts as he said this, frowning and saying, "It's just... I don't understand, since she is Min Wenshan's concubine, why would she do such a thing to betray her master?"
Pei Liang was also surprised. He thought seriously for a moment and said, "General, can this man really be trusted?"
Zong Yanli did not answer, but just looked at the secret letter in his hand again and again. After a long time, he said, "This time she clearly exposed the handwriting on purpose so that we can see it. She also exposed herself in public. This is her intention to seek peace."
