Chapter 339 The bodies of Jin soldiers are found
General Jin did not mind the dirtiness of the corpses and personally checked each one. He observed for a long time before standing up. He clapped his hands and stood up. Immediately, two Jin soldiers walked up to him respectfully.
One of them was holding a basin of clean water, and the other was holding a towel. While washing his hands, General Jin said to the people who were just in the tent: "Come and take a look. Do you think you can find any clues?"
Upon hearing this, the generals hurried forward a few steps, squatted in front of the corpse to examine it, and whispered to each other as they examined it.
"Well, did you see anything?"
Two quarters of an hour later, General Jin saw that the deputy generals had finished their inspection. He leaned back in the chair that his subordinates had just brought over, looked at them, and asked with narrowed eyes.
"General, these brothers were killed in one blow. The person who did it was very cruel and wanted to kill the brothers!"
"Although their ways of death are slightly different, judging by the methods used, it is very likely that they were killed by the same person!"
"Only one person had his neck cut by a sharp sword, and the others were killed with bare hands. The people who did it were very skilled in martial arts!"
......
One by one, the crowd stepped forward, bowed to General Jin, and expressed their thoughts.
General Jin nodded and asked General Chen, "Who found these bodies? Bring them up here!"
General Chen immediately called a team of Jin soldiers over!
"Meet the General!"
Looking at the group of Jin soldiers kneeling on the ground, General Jin had a cold face, waved his hand, and asked them to stand up.
"Everyone, please stand up and tell us in detail how and where these bodies were found!"
"Yes, General!"
The leading captain did not dare to delay and quickly told General Jin everything he wanted to know in detail.
After hearing this, General Jin remained silent for a long time. He placed his uninjured arm on the armrest of the chair and gradually clenched it!
The surroundings were unusually quiet and no one dared to make a sound.
The general was already angry because of the bandits attacking the military camp the day before. He hadn't caught those bandits yet, and he found that his brothers who went to search for Cao Zhu had disappeared inexplicably. One can imagine how the general feels now, and no one dares to offend him now.
"General Chen, gather 10,000 soldiers and follow me to the forest near the small village to check it out!"
General Jin suddenly stood up and gave a loud order.
"Yes, I obey!"
General Chen clasped his fists respectfully, responded, and went to arrange the troops.
"Lieutenant General Liu, you stay in the camp and arrange for people to take turns to go into the mountains to hunt. Even if there is no food, don't we still have such a large forest? Our Jin soldiers are brave men. They can eat anything. How can they starve to death while guarding such a big mountain? What a joke!"
After seeing General Chen leave, General Jin snorted coldly and gave instructions to Lieutenant General Liu.
"Yes, General, I will arrange it right away!"
Lieutenant General Liu knew that General Jin was somewhat dissatisfied with him because of his previous suggestion to retreat to the county town. Although he still believed that retreating to the county town was safer at this time, he did not dare to mention it again.
He was the child of a Jin soldier and a Daxia woman, and was looked down upon by the soldiers whose parents were also Jin people. If he had not fought bravely and made many military achievements, he would not have been able to climb to this position.
He winked at a group of subordinates he had won over the past few years and led them to retreat silently.
Do everything according to General Jin's instructions. If you offend him, you will lose the position of deputy general that you have worked so hard to get. It will be too unprofitable!
"General, the soldiers are ready!"
At this time, General Chen hurried to General Jin and reported respectfully.
"set off!"
General Jin put on his soft armor, took his sword from his personal guard, tied it around his waist, jumped on his horse, and roared.
Ten thousand Jin soldiers surrounded General Jin and rushed towards the small mountain village in a mighty manner!
"General, this is where the bodies of our brothers were found!"
When we reached the foot of the mountain, the team leader led the way respectfully in front, pointing to a forest full of holes and said.
General Jin and several lieutenants carefully inspected the woods.
"General, do you think it was Cao Zhu who led his men to do this?"
Lieutenant General Chen poked the pit in front of him, frowned, and spoke in a loud voice.
"Impossible! If Cao Zhu and his men had such abilities, they wouldn't have been chased by their brothers and fled into the mountains and forests, where they disappeared for days! With his temper, if he really had the strength to fight, he would not have abandoned the people and fled alone!"
General Jin stood up and looked at the surrounding woods with narrowed eyes and said.
After hearing what his general said, Lieutenant General Chen nodded. The general was right. Weren’t they able to successfully set this trap for him by taking advantage of General Cao’s love for the people?
So who killed these brothers?
He frowned, puzzled.
Oh, and where are those women? Didn't the brothers say they had robbed a lot of women from that mountain village and were enjoying them here? Why are those women gone?
He expressed his doubts.
"General, according to our brothers, they robbed dozens of women from this camp, but how come none of them are found? No one is found alive, and no body is found dead. This is really strange!"
"Deputy General Li, take a thousand men to check out that small mountain village!"
After listening to Lieutenant General Chen's words, General Jin gave instructions to another deputy general.
The burly Lieutenant General Li quickly took the order and led a thousand soldiers to quickly enter the mountain village.
A quarter of an hour later, he returned with his soldiers. Without waiting for General Jin to speak, he took the initiative to step forward and report in detail what he had discovered.
"General, the bones of the 'young sheep' eaten by the brothers in the village have been buried! The clothes in the homes of those people are still there, and there is no sign of them being sorted out and taken away!"
"So, someone came to this small mountain village, discovered what happened here, and rescued those women?"
"Even if those who stayed in the camp were killed because that man wanted to save those women, where did the others go?"
"Where could that man go with these women?"
General Jin frowned, paced back and forth, muttering to himself.
After thinking for a while, he raised his head and instructed Lieutenant General Li: "Lieutenant General Li, go contact the spies in the Zhao family army now and ask if anyone has brought a group of women to ask them for help in the past few days, or passed by the Zhao family army camp? Also ask him if anything unusual has happened in the Zhao family army in recent days!"
Lieutenant General Li did not immediately accept the order, but walked to General Jin and asked hesitantly in a low voice: "General, this spy is our last spy in the Zhao family army. What if he is exposed?"
"Nothing, the Imperial Master has issued an order a few days ago, asking us not to delay any longer and to attack Daxia as soon as possible to destroy the Zhao family army. He also sent someone to deliver a magical medicine, which will not have much effect. After the food is delivered, we will slaughter the Zhao family army that is in the way!"
General Jin had a fierce look in his eyes and whispered to Lieutenant General Li.
"Yes, General, I will contact the spy right away!"
Upon hearing this, Lieutenant General Li's eyes were filled with excitement. The national teacher had finally sent another magic medicine. After taking that magic medicine, wouldn't it be easy for them to deal with the Zhao family army? Did they think that they were the only ones who had the pills to strengthen their bodies?
How can the national teacher's magic medicine be compared with their pills!
Lieutenant General Li did not bring any soldiers with him, but went to the Zhao family army camp alone.
