Chapter 331 Uncle, it’s me!
After Lin Xi left Daya's team's temporary camp, he asked about his uncle's location and went straight to him.
General Cao and his guards were lying in the grass half a person's height, observing the movements of the Jin soldiers at the foot of the mountain.
They were very careful. They were very close to the Jin army camp. Yesterday, Jin soldiers passed by from time to time, but today there were much fewer people.
Lin Xi bent down and carefully moved behind General Cao.
"Who?"
General Cao heard the noise behind him and let out a low shout. Just as he was about to make a move, he saw Lin Xi coming over and quickly retracted his internal energy.
"Uncle, it's me!"
Lin Xi lay down beside General Cao and spoke in a low voice.
"Lin Xi girl, when did you arrive?"
General Cao looked ahead and saw that no Jin soldiers were coming for the time being, so he started talking to Lin Xi.
"Uncle, I just arrived. How is the Jin army doing?"
Lin Xi looked at General Cao and asked in a low voice.
Seeing that his mouth was a little dry, she had an idea and took out a big, bright red peach from the boundary bead and stuffed it into General Cao's hand.
General Cao swallowed his saliva, rubbed the peach on his body, and began to eat it in big mouthfuls. Hmm, it was sweet and juicy, and delicious!
After eating half a peach, General Cao finally replied, "The Jin soldiers only have enough food for today, and the soldiers are getting a little anxious!"
Just as Lin Xi was about to speak, he saw two Jin soldiers sneaking towards him.
She pointed in the direction of the Jin soldiers, and she and General Cao pressed their bodies tightly against the ground. General Cao put the half-eaten peach into his space ring, and stared at the two Jin soldiers like a wolf.
"Just here, there's no one here!"
A short and fat Jin soldier, holding a pile of dirty clothes, spoke to the tall and thin soldier next to him.
"Okay, let's go inside a little further!"
So the two of them walked into the forest for a while, and only stopped when their figures could no longer be seen from outside the forest.
The tall and thin Jin soldier drew the sword from his waist, found a piece of soft ground, and started digging a hole there.
The short and fat Jin soldier took out something wrapped in yellow mud from the pile of clothes in his arms, threw it into the pit that the tall and thin Jin soldier had just dug, and then filled it with soil.
Then he found some dead grass and dry branches nearby and lit a fire on the buried pit.
Lin Xi raised his eyebrows. Are these two secretly grilling something to eat?
As soon as the thought came to his mind, he saw the two Jin soldiers sitting down on the ground and starting chatting.
"Hey, I don't know where the brothers who went to ask for food are now. When can they bring the food back?"
The short and fat Jin soldier lay directly on the ground, holding a dogtail grass in his mouth, and said with a sigh.
"They just left not long ago, and so should the general. We should have sent people back to ask for food two days ago, but we were afraid of being blamed by the Imperial Master, so we delayed for another two days. Now look what happened. We will starve tomorrow!"
The tall and thin Jin soldier added more firewood to the fire and spoke in a low voice.
After saying that, he looked at the military camp and said uneasily, "Do you think we won't be discovered if we eat chicken secretly here?"
"It's okay. Now everyone is trying to save energy and not move. Who would come here? Besides, we caught the pheasant. So what if we are discovered?"
The short and fat Jin soldier looked unconcerned.
"If you ask me, we should attack the Daxia military camp while we still have one day's worth of food. As long as we repel them and occupy a county town, won't our food supply be solved?"
The tall and thin Jin soldier seemed very dissatisfied with their general's arrangement, and said while smashing the branch in his hand.
The short and fat Jin soldier suddenly sat up when he heard his words, looked around, and then leaned close to the thin and tall Jin soldier's ear and whispered: "Two days ago, the thieves stole our food and rescued Chen Wei. Then the general planned to attack Daxia!"
"Then why was there no order passed down?"
The tall and thin Jin soldier looked puzzled.
"Listen to me, the general originally planned to attack Daxia right away, but the day before yesterday when the general sent people to the front to get information, he found that all the brothers who were searching for Cao Zhu near that small mountain village had disappeared!"
"Disappear?"
"Yes, so many people disappeared without a trace. When the general heard about this, he felt it was very strange, so he temporarily gave up the idea of attacking Daxia and sent someone back to send a letter to the national teacher!"
......
Cao Chun, who was hiding in the tree canopy not far away, took advantage of the two men's inattention, poked his head out and gestured to General Cao, asking him whether he wanted to get rid of the two men.
After seeing General Cao shaking his head, he shrank back into the tree canopy and continued to listen to the two Jin soldiers chatting to see if he could get any useful information from their conversation.
Until the two Jin soldiers had eaten up the roasted chicken, Lin Xi and others did not hear any useful information from them.
Seeing that the two soldiers were about to leave, Cao Chun asked General Cao again whether to take action, but General Cao still shook his head.
It is not easy to alert the enemy now, so let these two Jin soldiers live for two more days. After a few days, none of these beasts will be able to escape.
Not long after the two Jin soldiers left, Daya came over carrying the Jin soldier squad leader.
"General Cao, Boss, my team members killed a group of Jin soldiers who were going back to the Jin Kingdom to deliver a letter and ask for food. This is their team leader, and here is the letter!"
Daya threw the Jin soldier rudely to the ground, and then handed the letter in her hand to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi handed the letter to General Cao, who read it and handed it back to Lin Xi.
In the letter, the Jin general recounted the disappearance of thousands of Jin soldiers for no reason, and described in detail the current situation in the Jin camp, requesting the imperial teacher to send someone to deliver food.
"Tell me everything you know, and I'll give you a quick death!"
General Cao kicked the Jin soldier lying on the ground hard and said in a cold voice.
After saying that, he bent down and took off the cloth that was covering his mouth!
"Someone is coming..."
As soon as his mouth was free, the Jin soldier started shouting. This place was so close to his military camp. Maybe his brothers could hear him and come in time to rescue him!
As it turned out, he was really overthinking it. The guards had just quietly investigated the surroundings and found no Jin soldiers nearby, so General Cao felt at ease letting the Jin soldier speak.
Seeing that he was so ignorant of the current situation, Lin Xi kicked him on the mute point, carried him to the woods nearby, and took good care of him.
When Lin Xi carried him back to General Cao and Daya, the Jin soldier was pale, his clothes were soaked, and there was fear in his eyes.
"I'll give you one last chance. Tell me everything you know!"
Lin Xi folded his arms and looked down at the Jin soldier lying on the ground, and said in a cold voice.
The Jin soldier nodded hurriedly, only asking Lin Xi to stop torturing him after he confessed!
