Chapter 393 Kusi Lao's Performance (4)
"I'm still very strange. Why did I suddenly ask us to guard the village wall? Do you know Ebenni?" Late at night, a soldier on duty walked back and forth near the north gate of the camp for a few steps and couldn't help but say.
"I don't know either." The man named Ebenni shook his head.
"I know." This voice suddenly came from behind Ebenny.
"What's the long?" The two saluted immediately.
"Abenni, Bashir, you are on duty, don't salute me." Shi Chang continued: "I know why we suddenly let us guard the village wall."
"What's the length, why?"
"Because of the new commander of the thousand-man, the deputy commander of the thousand-man requested the governor to arrange for the soldiers of our 9000-man team to be on duty."
"Why do the commander and deputy commander do this?" Bashir was very puzzled and grew his mouth in surprise.
"To show off in front of the governor." Shi Chang sneered: "They just lost a battle. Although everyone will not immediately think that the commander of the Qianma and the deputy commander of the Qianma are incompetent generals because of a defeat, they still want to show their usefulness as soon as possible. Since they will not fight again with the Qin man in a short period of time, they can only show their hard work."
"They show their hard work, but we all bear the price." Bashir said dissatisfied.
"That's right, that's right. Why don't the commander and the deputy commander come here to be on duty in person?" Ebenny also shouted.
"Stop!" Hearing Bashir's words, Shi Cheng had no reaction; but after hearing his words, Shi Cheng immediately scolded and said, "You can express your dissatisfaction with the actions of the commander of the thousand-man and the deputy commander of the thousand-man, but you cannot say such angry words!
All Muslims have equal status, but different divisions of labor. The job of a leader includes many, but not the long-term duty of a person on the village wall."
"We know. Please forgive our mistakes." The two immediately saluted.
Shi Chang nodded and was about to instruct them again, suddenly his eyes became alert and turned around and shouted, "Who!"
"Aximu, it's me, Atayi." A tall man walked into the place illuminated by the torch.
"It's Mr. Atayi." Shi, named Asimum, breathed a sigh of relief. Atayi was the guard of Deputy Commander of Safe, and it is said that he was highly valued by Deputy Commander of the Thousand, so he could rest assured.
"Did the Deputy Chief of the Thousand-Man send a gentleman here to tell us something?" he asked again.
"There is nothing special to tell you. I just came to inspect the village walls stationed by the 9th Thousand-Man team in place of the deputy commander."
After pausing, Atayi continued: "The Deputy Chief of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of Thousands of
"Yes, we will definitely be alert." Chief Shi agreed first, and praised: "The two commanders of thousands of men are really hardworking."
"Don't say anything flattering," Atayi smiled faintly on her face, but said, "It will be happier if the two commanders do things well."
After saying this, he began to check. Atayi first came to the village wall and carefully observed whether there were enemies outside. Then he turned his head to look at Bashir and Abenni. Seeing that they were dressed properly, holding a bow in their hands, and then looking at the quiver behind them? Confirm the number of arrows also meets the regulations.
"Mr. Atayi? There is no need to check so carefully." Asimu said: "Today is the first time the Nine Thousand Man team is on duty, and they will not slackew."
"It's my first time on behalf of the deputy commander of the thousand-man? I have to be cautious. Asimu? Hand me the knife in your hand and I'll see if you keep holding the knife."
"Yes." Asimi was helpless? But he could only hand the knife to him.
"The handle is full of sweat, it seems that you have always held the knife." Atayi glanced at him a few times? He said to him again: "I didn't mean to make things difficult for you? I just had to be cautious."
"I understand." Asimu was certainly unhappy, but Atayi's actions were completely in line with the regulations, so he could only say this.
"It's good that you can understand." Atayi nodded, but did not hand the knife back to him? He said again: "I'll call the other three soldiers guarding the half-city gate."
"Okay." Asimu was a little surprised that he would not hand the knife back to himself? But he didn't think much about it, and took a few steps to call the other three people over.
Atayi carefully looked at the dresses and quivering sounds of the three of them and confirmed that there was no problem. Then, accompanied by Asimu, he walked to the other half of the village gate and inspected the other five people.
After checking all ten people, Atayi said to Asimum: "All have been checked? No problem, you and the soldiers under your command have done a good job. I also thank you for your cooperation."
"No need to thank you? We should cooperate." Asimu smiled.
"I'm going to check on the others." Atayi said, and was about to leave; suddenly something happened again? He smiled and said, "I almost forgot to give the knife back to Shilong. I'm so embarrassed." As he said that, he handed the knife to Asimu.
"It's okay." Asimi breathed a sigh of relief? He was still worried that Atayi would not return him? He agreed with a smile? He was about to reach out to take it.
But suddenly, both of them stopped and looked behind them almost at the same time; Atayi also raised the knife in his hand high, pointing to the place where the light of the torch was not too bright.
Immediately, a man in a military uniform in big food suddenly ran out of the road between the two large tents. Seeing that he had already run to the wall of the village, he was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned to the west to run there.
"Stop him!" Atayi shouted, waving his sword and rushing over. Asimu hesitated for a moment before rushing over. It is indeed strange that the person with strange whereabouts suddenly appeared in the camp, but he is the person stationed at the village wall and should not be cared about. But Atayi had already rushed up, and there were no enemies outside the village gate, so it would be fine if he was cared about once.
The person who was running away noticed a shadow flashing by his side. When he turned his head, he saw someone waving his knife to him, and he couldn't help but run faster. But his physical strength was not as strong as Atayi and he was soon caught up.
"Stop, if you don't stop, I'll chop you!" Atayi shouted, and saw that the man showed no sign of stopping, he waved his knife to slash his back.
When he noticed that the knife was slashing at him, the man had to dodge and continued to run away. But at this time Atayi had already come to him, reached out to grab his shirt, and pulled the man to the ground with a forceful pull.
"Who are you? Why do you run?" Atayi tied the man's hands with a rope, pulled him to the place where the torch could illuminate. He asked, and looked at his face at the same time. Seeing his appearance, Atayi and Asimu were both stunned.
"Where did the person go?" Suddenly, this shout sounded again. The two of them subconsciously raised their heads and saw three more people running out of the road they were grabbing just now, and the leader said.
"Here!" Atayi shouted immediately.
When the three of them heard the shouts, they hurried over and the leader said, "We are soldiers patrolling the military camp tonight. Who are you?"
"I am a leader of the 9th thousand men's team, named Asimu, who is responsible for guarding the north gate of the camp tonight; he is the escort of the deputy commander of our Thousand People's Team, named Atayi, and is here to patrol." Asimu saw that Atayi did not speak, stepped forward and said.
"I'm glad to know you." The patrol soldier said, and said, "The person you caught is the person we are chasing. I hope you can hand him over to us."
"He is a spy of Qin's army!" Asimu immediately said: "I knew it as soon as I saw his appearance! He was completely the appearance of Qin's man."
"We are not sure whether he is a spy or not. After all, he is wearing a Hardy Army uniform. But he is the man Qin. When we saw him just now, he was not in the Hardy Army barracks, but he didn't know what he was looking at outside, so we went up to interrogate him. But when he saw us walking towards him, he immediately ran away, and the direction of his escape was not the Hardy Army barracks. Therefore, we thought he was suspected of spy." The patrol soldier gave a brief introduction.
"He must be a spy from Qin's army!" Asimu immediately said excitedly: "I knew that Qin's man could not be trusted! All the soldiers of the Hardy army were spies, and they should be demoted to civilians, rather than treated as soldiers!"
"Please speak softly." The patrol soldier said.
"Sorry." Asimu heard the reminder and realized that his voice was too loud. Even Emini and five other people nearby attracted him, he quickly lowered his voice and said.
"Mr. Atayi, give this Qin and that man to them." He turned around and said.
"Okay." Atayi agreed, but did not send the man to the patrol soldier himself, but pushed him hard to get close to Asimu.
Asimu was a little strange about Atayi's behavior, but he didn't think much about it and turned around to push the man to the patrol soldier.
But just as he turned around, he noticed in surprise that the three of them raised their bows and arrows behind him. Asimu thought for a moment that there were soldiers from the Tang Dynasty approaching the north gate of the camp, but immediately noticed that there was no shouting of soldiers on duty around him.
‘What's going on?’ He was thinking, and suddenly felt a pain in his chest. He looked down and saw that the rope that tied Qin's hands had been untied for some reason. The man stabbed his right dagger into his chest.
"Hmph!" At the same time, a few muffled groans came from behind him.
'They are all spies!' Asimu finally figured out the whole thing and was about to shout loudly to alarm the other soldiers; but the Qin man in front of him waved his dagger to cut open his trachea before his voice left his throat. Asimu couldn't speak at once, and could only make a "hoho" sound, and soon died because he could not breathe.
"Don't waste time!" At this time, Atayi's voice came: "Immediately shoot the other five people to death, and at the same time, wave the torch as the previous master's instructions to inform the Qin man."
"yes!"
