Jade Without Fragrance Chapter 293

   Chapter 293

   The Great Zhou soldier who brought down Guan Changliang's body watched his companions disappear into the night, and quickly left to meet with the other four.

   The four of them were still waiting in the same place, and when they saw him come back, they cast inquiring eyes.

   The soldier nodded, indicating that everything went well.

   The eyes of the four of them showed joy, and then their expressions became solemn.

  No one spoke, they patted each other on the shoulders and quietly looked away.

   After a while, firelights rose one after another.

   The patrolling soldiers found the abnormality and immediately sounded the gong: "Go away, go away!"

   The people who heard the movement hurriedly came out to investigate, and someone shouted again: "It's the granary! The granary is running out of water!"

   The face of the person who heard it changed greatly, and while running towards the granary, he shouted: "No, the granary is running out of water!"

  Qi Shuo was lying in the tent, and when he heard the shout, he picked up his thick coat and walked out, just in time to see Wu Ye walking out of the tent.

   "Uncle." He walked quickly to Wuye's side.

   Wu Ye's face was heavy, and he didn't bother to gossip: "Go, go and have a look."

  More and more people rushed to the granary. In the chaos, five Dazhou soldiers who took off their black tights and wore clothes similar to those of the Qi Army mixed in with these people, looking for an opportunity to escape.

   They didn't dare to leave too early, but took the opportunity to create more chaos, so that the companions who took the traitor's head had more time to escape.

   Karasano stopped and stared at the place where the fire was burning, his face darkened.

   It wasn't the granary that caught fire!

  I think it is true, the granary is the basis for fighting, it has always been closely guarded, and there is no possibility of the existence of flammable things.

   These fire points are not consistent, and they are all heading towards the granary - this is someone deliberately arson!

   Wuye's expression changed, and he commanded loudly: "Immediately guard the edge of the camp, and pay attention to whether the people walking around are unfamiliar!"

   Soon some people were in charge of putting out the fire, while others searched for the mixed enemy.

   "Which squad are you from?"

   After a while, someone was discovered.

   The Great Zhou soldier held a dagger and rushed at the person closest to him. When the people around him came around and slashed, he had already stabbed and killed two Qi soldiers.

   Qi Shuo looked over from not far away, and after the Qi soldiers dispersed, what he saw under the torchlight was a **** corpse.

   He clenched the hand hanging by his side tightly, as if his chest was burned by fire.

   Sacrifice is always inevitable, but it doesn't mean that there is no pain or anger.

  The chaos was subsided after half an hour, and the bodies of the four unidentified faces were dragged in front of Wuye.

   "What's the loss?" Karasano asked the subordinate who was in charge of the inventory.

   "Report to the general, ten soldiers were killed and eight were wounded, other than that there was no loss."

   In addition to the granary, there are also warehouses for weapons, clothing and other materials. The defense is looser than that of the granary, and no one other than the guards is near.

   "These Zhou soldiers sneaked into the camp, it's impossible just to set a few fires, continue to investigate!"

   Not long after, the headless corpse lying under the tree not far from the camp prostitute's tent was found.

   Wu Ye looked at the headless male corpse with an extremely ugly expression: "Who is this?"

  A lot of people leaned over and poked their heads to look, but the headless male corpse had nothing special in his clothes, and could only be seen as a general. But this is also easy to check. The generals in the battalion are all counted, and they can be found after counting.

   But before checking, someone hesitantly said: "This seems to be - General Guan!"

   Wuye immediately said: "Look to see if Guan Changliang is there."

   After looking for it like this, Guan Changliang was really not seen.

   Guan Changliang was unpopular in the Qi army, but his official position was not low, and he usually had his own soldiers guarding the camp. Soon his two personal soldiers were dragged over and knelt down in front of Wu Ye.

   "Look and see if this is your general." Wu Ye pointed at the headless corpse.

   The two personal soldiers already knew what was going on, and they looked over with pale faces, and the moment the headless voice came into view, they immediately shivered.

   "Yes, it's our general!" One of the guards said tremblingly.

   Kurano's tone was stern: "Are you sure?"

   Another guard nodded, his voice trembling: "This is what the general wore when he went out..."

   "When did he go out?"

   The two guards said the time.

   "What was he doing out at night? Why didn't you guys follow?"

   The two guards looked at each other.

   Wu Ye's face sank when he saw this, and they didn't dare to hesitate any longer.

   "General he...he said to go to the incense tent, but he didn't let us follow..."

   "Damn!" Wu Ye kicked the torch that had been extinguished beside his feet, and a burst of anger was stuck in his chest with nowhere to vent.

   It was a practice in Northern Qi to set up camp prostitutes in the army to comfort soldiers who would lose their lives at any time. Guan Changliang's behavior of going to camp prostitutes was nothing to say, but it was because he lost his life to go out for fun, which made Wuye too annoyed.

   Up to now, he can be sure that the purpose of these Zhou soldiers mixing into the Qi camp is to take Guan Changliang's life. Guan Changliang's head disappeared, leaving only such a cavity, which means that it is very likely that Zhou Bing escaped and took Guan Changliang's head with him.

  Thinking about it, how could Kurano not be annoyed, and immediately called the night patrol team to ask questions.

   The general in charge of the patrol had a cold sweat on his forehead: "That's right, after hearing the water in the granary, he put his heart to the fire and left for a while..."

   "Idiot!" Wu Ye raised his hand and slapped the patrol general.

   This slap was so angry that it knocked out a human tooth, but the patrol general did not dare to have any dissatisfaction, so he threw himself down on his knees and pleaded guilty.

   Wuye looked at the person kneeling in front of him with a grim expression: "Damn it! Even if the enemy escaped because of neglecting the defense, how did they get in before?"

   This is what made Kurano even more annoyed and frightened.

   How did these Zhou soldiers sneak into the camp without knowing it?

  I can mix into the camp tonight, can I also be able to do it tomorrow night?

   "Check, let me find out where the loophole is!"

  Here at the Qi army camp, this investigation has been tossed to near dawn. When he was just walking out of the water, the Da Zhou soldier with Guan Chang's bright head took advantage of the opportunity of the inspection team to fight the fire and left smoothly, and ran wildly in the direction of the city gate.

  The cold wind slashed his face like a knife, but his heart was hot.

   Faster, faster!

  The city gate finally came near, and as agreed, he blew the whistle, three long and two short.

   There was movement on the city tower, and the guard who had not slept looked down, the suspension bridge was quietly lowered, and a rope hung down the city wall.

   The soldier quickly passed the drawbridge and climbed up the city wall by rope.

   "Is there anyone else?" the guard asked.

   "It should be gone..." The soldier's voice was a little low, and he quickly got off the city wall and rushed to the commander's mansion.

   After him, there was actually another Zhou soldier who escaped, so there is no need to mention it here.

   King Jing and General Xu both lived in the commander-in-chief's mansion temporarily requisitioned. At this time, the two were not asleep, and they were arguing in one place.
