Chapter 428: Military Morale Stable
Murong Yanhui's tone was neither light nor heavy, and there was no sound of blame, but it made everyone present feel heavy for no reason. Yang Cheng, who had spoken first, was now standing aside with his fists clenched, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Little uncle..."
Murong Feng wanted to persuade him, but was stopped by Murong Yanhui's stern voice, "General Murong, there are no royal relatives in this camp. I am a general now. If I do something wrong, I will be punished by military law! Continue!"
Qingjiu, standing in the crowd, couldn't bear to watch. He thought the prince was going to take action against those who were causing trouble, but instead, he hit himself hard. Look at the wound on his back. It will probably take at least ten days or half a month to heal! What a sin!
Murong Yuan, who had been hiding secretly in the tent, obviously also saw this scene. She tried hard to cover her lips to prevent herself from crying out. It was because of her willfulness that her favorite little uncle suffered. Perhaps, she was really wrong this time. She shouldn't have come here at all.
The remaining twenty military sticks were also quickly used up. Murong Yanhui did not put on his coat again, and his bloody back was exposed to the air, which was really shocking.
Murong Yanhui's forehead was covered in cold sweat due to the pain. He did not reach out to wipe it off. Instead, he raised his eyes and looked at Yang Cheng. "What do you think, Lieutenant General Yang?"
This scene shocked Yang Cheng, and also made those who had followed him to cause trouble admire him very much. How could a person who could be so strict with himself be the playboy as rumored? What's more, they had heard that many years ago, this King of Yan had a very famous name, "God of War"!
Faced with reality, the previous rumors about the King of Yan were instantly refuted. If such a person could not serve as their general, they really couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while!
Then, led by Yang Cheng, the generals in the army bowed respectfully to the ground one by one, "We swear to follow the general until death!"
"I and others swear to follow the general till death!"
This time, it was not a declaration under the imperial power, but a submission of the heart!
Murong Yanhui slowly walked up to Yang Cheng and personally extended his hand to help him up. "Deputy General Yang, I haven't led troops for many years. If I do anything inappropriate in the future, I hope you will give me more advice. I believe that you also hope to win this battle before the New Year and return to reunite with your families as soon as possible!"
Everyone nodded repeatedly, and the soldiers present were also deeply moved and expressed their sincerity. This scene made Murong Feng, who had been standing aside, thoughtful. It seemed that even though the Prince of Yan had not been on the battlefield for many years, his ability to win people's hearts had not declined at all. It seemed that his father's worries and precautions over the years were justified.
Because this man really should not be underestimated!
After this little episode, the team continued to move forward, but this time, the originally somewhat loose army seemed to have cohesion, and even the march was much faster. All the complaints and dissatisfaction before departure were transformed into motivation to move forward. Everyone felt that the general was right. If they wanted to return home and reunite with their families as soon as possible, they had to drive out those Tartars in the north as soon as possible!
Yu Qingli looked at the man who was standing in the crowd but still radiating a dazzling light from afar, and a sense of pride arose in her heart. She lowered her eyebrows and smiled slightly. This man was indeed worthy of being called the God of War. No matter what kind of battlefield it was, he could always find the most appropriate solution.
"Let's go, Xiluo."
"Master, won't you go and take a look? The prince's injuries look serious!"
Yu Qingli signaled with her eyes to the few people in the crowd who were running back towards Murong Yan, "Look, there's no need for us to show up now." Besides, she didn't want to reveal her identity so quickly, especially in front of Murong Feng.
Because Murong Yanhui was injured, he asked Murong Feng to lead the team to move forward first, and he would catch up after taking care of his wound. Murong Feng left first, and took the crying Murong Yuan with him.
Qingjiu was about to step forward to help Murong Yan back, while complaining extremely dissatisfiedly, "Master, are you stupid? Why use the self-torture trick when there are so many other methods? And you are still torturing yourself like this. It's so cold now. When will your wound heal?"
"With me here, Senior Brother will be well soon!"
A clear voice appeared in Murong Yanhui's ears, and then another strong arm supported Murong Yanhui to one side.
Murong Yanhui frowned, "I'm not disabled, why are you holding me up?"
"Brother, you're practically crippled now. If you don't take care of the wound on your back, you won't be able to fight, let alone wear clothes. Brother, you don't want to fight those Northern Tartars naked, do you? Or are you planning to sacrifice your beauty to seduce the Northern commander? I heard that the Northern Kingdom is very gay, and someone like you might actually be popular!"
Yu Lihan joked recklessly, but he didn't stop. He directly carried Murong Yan back to the tent. When he saw the person standing outside the tent in a daze, he was stunned at first, then smiled and said, "What are you standing there for? Come in if you need help!"
The soldier with his head lowered followed in in a panic, but when he saw the wound on Murong Yanhui's back, he gasped.
This wound is so serious!
I didn't notice it when I watched from afar before, but the blood had already solidified on Murong Yanhui's back due to the cold air outside, and even stained with his underwear, making it difficult to even treat the wound.
Even Yu Lihan frowned, "Brother, you are really cruel to yourself. If you want them to do it, why don't you just take off your clothes? It's really..."
"You're talking too much nonsense, why not just say it directly!"
Murong Yanhui simply tore off the white inner garment on his body, and the wound on his back became more serious because of his pulling. Qingjiu was a little puzzled. The matter had been resolved smoothly, so why was the master still angry?
Naturally, they didn't understand Murong Yanhui's thoughts. His self-torture trick was not meant for those people to see, but for Yu Qingli to see. He originally thought that Yu Qingli would appear in front of him after seeing him injured, but the result was not as expected.
What made Murong Yanhui even more depressed was that Yu Qingli actually told Murong Feng about the future military camp, but did not reveal any information to him.
It's really frustrating!
Yu Lihan looked at the bloody wound and ordered the soldier standing at the door, "You, get some hot water!"
The man walked out with trembling hands, and soon came back in with a basin of clean hot water in his hands. Yu Lihan exclaimed, "So fast?"
"Some of it was burned before..." the man muttered.
Qingjiu took a look at the man. He looked very familiar. Did he know him?
Yu Lihan raised the corners of his lips, smiled mysteriously, and said meaningfully: "Senior Brother, your charm is really everywhere!"
Murong Yan looked up and said, "If you want to heal your wound, hurry up, or get out! I have to hurry!"
What I mean is, I'm in a bad mood right now, so don't mess with me!
"Okay, okay! I'll treat you right away, but why are you in such a bad mood today, brother? Are you missing my sister?"
Murong Yanhui was surprisingly silent, and only said sullenly, "Hurry up and apply the medicine. I need to catch up with the team before dusk."
"I know, I know."
Yu Lihan first cleaned Murong Yanhui's wound, then applied the best medicine to it. After bandaging it, he handed the medicine to Qingjiu and said, "Change the medicine once in the morning and evening. It will be healed in five days."
"Yeah! It's okay, you can go out first, I still have things to take care of."
Yu Lihan walked out with understanding, and smiled meaningfully at the soldier at the door before leaving.
"Qingjiu, go prepare some food."
Qingjiu then remembered that his master had not had a drop of water since he got up, so he hurried to prepare food. Only Murong Yanhui and the soldier were left in the tent.
The soldier seemed very nervous. He lowered his head in a panic and said, "General, I will leave first."
"Wait a minute!" Murong Yanhui suddenly called out to the soldier. His gaze made the already panicked soldier even walk clumsily.
Murong Yanhui raised an eyebrow, but there was a hint of dissatisfaction and blame in her eyes, "Now there are only two of us. Can I tell you why you are here? Lin Zhi!"
"Bang!"
The basin of water that Linzhi was holding fell to the ground, spilling water all over the floor. She stood there uncomfortably, her eyes full of guilt. After seeing how Murong Yanhui had been severely punished because of Murong Yuan, she began to hesitate and doubt her original decision.
If people found out that there was another woman in the military camp besides Murong Yuan, wouldn't Murong Yan be implicated again?
Just thinking about it, Lin Zhi felt very sad, especially when she saw Murong Yan's bloody back just now, Lin Zhi even found it difficult to breathe.
But now, I didn’t expect that Murong Yanhui would discover it so quickly.
Murong Yanhui did not continue asking. He was waiting, waiting for the woman in front of him to give him a definite answer.
After a while, Lin Zhi slowly squatted down and picked up the empty basin. After calming herself down, she slowly walked to Murong Yanhui and asked, "When did Brother Yan find out?"
"When I walked in just now, I thought you looked a little strange, so I took a closer look. I didn't expect it to be you. Now can you tell me why you are here?"
"In fact, this was my father's arrangement." Lin Zhi said helplessly, put the basin of water in her hand aside, sat down in front of the couch, and told Murong Yanhui the reason why she appeared in the military camp.
