The deputy general walked straight to his tent. To be honest, he really listened to what Chu Qing said just now. But it's one thing to listen to it, and another thing to be able to change yourself.
The deputy general returned to his tent. As soon as he sat down and took a sip of tea, someone came to report that the spies sent to find out information about the enemy had returned. They were outside the military camp and were about to enter the camp.
During this period of time, there was no movement from the spies. If they suddenly came back, could something have happened? The deputy general thought so and immediately stood up and walked out of the tent.
As soon as he walked out of the tent, the deputy general saw that the spy he had sent out had just dismounted. After he dismounted, he hurried towards Chu Qing's tent with an ugly expression on his face. Looking at his appearance, the deputy general guessed that something serious must have happened, so he quickly stepped forward to stop him.
"What's going on? You look like you're in a hurry."
When the spy saw the deputy general, he saluted first and then said, "I have something important to report to General Chu, deputy general."
The deputy general frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
"While patrolling the surrounding area, we discovered an abnormality." The man said with a serious look on his face.
The deputy general's eyebrows jumped, and he frowned and asked: "What's abnormal? Have you checked it out?"
"It has been found out. Early this morning, when our people were patrolling the northwest, they found someone wandering around. At first we thought they were locals, so we didn't take it seriously. But at noon, the soldiers patrolling the southeast reported that they had seen someone. There are traces of people, and those people don’t look like ordinary people, but like well-trained soldiers.”
The deputy general frowned and asked, "What happens next?"
"There were occasional signs of human activity after that, but they all looked normal. But the spies we sent out came back and reported that a group of enemy people left the military camp early the day before yesterday. They followed them all the way, but then those people disappeared. Combined with today's report We guessed that the enemy might sneak attack on the military camp tonight due to the abnormality in the two places, so I hurriedly reported it to General Chu."
The lieutenant general was silent. According to what the spies said, the enemy's behavior did seem to be a sneak attack on the military camp. If this is really the case, then...
"Deputy General, my subordinates must report to General Chu as soon as possible without any further delay." The man said anxiously, and then prepared to walk towards Chu Qing's tent.
"etc."
The man stopped, looked at the deputy general and asked, "Do you have any other orders, deputy general?"
The lieutenant general walked up to him and said, "I happen to have military affairs to discuss with General Chu. I will take the opportunity to report what you said to General Ming. You can go down first."
"But… "
"What? Is it because I, the deputy general, am useless, and you only listen to General Chu in this whole camp?" the deputy general said in a low voice, pretending to be angry, his face looking very bad.
"I don't dare." The man shook his head, and then said: "Then I resigned, and I also asked the deputy general to inform General Chu of the matter as soon as possible."
"This matter is not trivial. Don't tell anyone else yet. If this matter spreads, it will be very detrimental to our side. I will make a decision after I inform General Chu about the matter and discuss it with General Chu." The deputy general said with a look on his face. He looked at him seriously and said.
The man nodded and said: "I understand, I will resign first."
The deputy general waved his hand and said: "Go down and pay close attention to the enemy's movements. If you find any trouble, report it to me first. General Chu has been feeling unwell recently and it is inconvenient to see people."
The deputy general's words were convincing, and he had killed the enemy many times on the battlefield, so the man had no doubts. He nodded without hesitation, clasped his hands and said, "Yes, my subordinates are resigning."
The deputy general watched the man leave, then looked at Chu Qing's tent, and raised the corner of his mouth, "Let me see how proud you are this time."
