“Young General Meng.”
A respectful voice sounded behind him.
Meng Shaoyuan turned around and saw a young man with red lips and white teeth standing there with a large bundle of arrows in his arms.
Nanling Pass was already very hot in June, and they had just experienced a war. The young man’s forehead was covered in sweat, and his originally fair cheeks were red from the sun.
If this were any other soldier, they would definitely look extremely miserable. However, the person in front of him was the opposite. Not only was he not ugly, but he also looked pitiful.
Meng Shaoyuan circled his mouth with his tongue and asked with a smile, “Liu
Jinbao, right?”
Liu Jinbao felt uncomfortable under his gaze. He lowered his head and said,
“Yes.”
Could it be that Young General Meng hated him for hitting Liu Yang? But wasn’t that General Meng’s order? At most, he had spent money to buy the opportunity to be in charge of the punishment.
Speaking of Liu Yang, he had been recuperating ever since he was punished last time.
He was Meng Shaoyuan’s subordinate. It was possible that Meng Shaoyuan wanted to stand up for him.
Liu Jinbao felt that he had found out the truth, but Meng Shaoyuan didn’t say anything else. He nodded and turned to leave.
Liu Jinbao was stunned. Was he thinking too much?
However, when he thought about how Meng Shaoyuan had looked at him as if he was prey, he still felt a chill down his spine.
“Jinbao, come and help.” Sun Hao called out to him from not far away. There was an injured soldier lying beside him. He wanted to carry him back to the infirmary, but he could lift him onto his back alone.
Liu Jinbao came back to his senses and quickly replied, “Okay.”
He first put the arrow in his arms aside and helped the injured soldier lie on Sun Hao’s back.
“Thank you.” Sun Hao smiled and thanked him.
Song Jinghuan had been surrendered to the Cooks’ Army. It was unknown if the higher-ups had forgotten about it, but they didn’t arrange a new captain for their team. Therefore, those people were temporarily led by Sun Hao and Tang Shun, the two vice-captains.
Liu Jinbao scratched his head and said, “It’s a small matter. By the way, is the wound on your back alright? Why don’t I carry him?”
“Those sticks were like a back massage. It’s not a serious injury.” Sun Hao stood up and prepared to leave. “I’m leaving.”
“Be careful,” Liu Jinbao reminded him.
Sun Hao nodded and carried the soldier straight to the infirmary.
It was rare for the infirmary to sound like anything but painful wails.
“Such a heavy bow was drawn by our general’s wife. Then, our general casually shot an arrow with his wife in his arms. Han Tong died on the spot. His head exploded and blood covered the ground. It has to be known that Han Tong was hiding at the back of the camp and was more than half a battlefield away. The Wu Kingdom’s army was scared out of their wits by this arrow and retreated.”
“Little Six, I heard that you were injured by an arrow shot from outside before you could go up the city tower. You didn’t even go up the city tower. How did you see it? You’re not bragging, are you?” Another injured soldier lying next to him teased.
The person who spoke had stayed in the infirmary to recuperate from his injuries and did not participate in this city defense battle.
The soldier called Little Six blushed. “Anyway, I just saw it. Don’t doubt me.”
“It’s true. I saw it too.” Another soldier said, “At that time, I was beside the general and Madam. Not only was Han Tong hiding behind them, but he was also protected by the iron armored soldiers.”
“I saw it too. I really didn’t expect the general’s wife to be so strong. She’s really a match made in heaven with our general.”
Everyone spoke one after another and described the arrow on the city wall to the people around them.
“Did you hear that? It’s your loss that you couldn’t go today.” Little Six snorted proudly. He didn’t see it, but he had heard it from others.
The military doctor who was treating his wound was so excited that he exerted strength when he heard the key point. He gritted his teeth in pain. “Oh my,
Military Doctor Tong, be gentle.”
“Alright, I’ll be gentle,” Doctor Tong said guiltily.
The injured soldier beside him urged, “Little Six, tell your big brother more.”
After recovering from the pain, Little Six said angrily, “Go away, who are you to call yourself my big brother?”
“You’re my big brother, alright?” The injured soldier chuckled and said,
“Brother Six, tell me again. Is our general’s wife really that powerful?”
Little Six felt comfortable being called that. Seeing that he still had doubts about the general’s wife, he hurriedly said, “Of course. Have you heard the story of that black iron bow?”
At the entrance of the infirmary, Meng Linyan’s face turned colder and colder as she listened to everyone praise the woman they had never met..
