Chapter 1342 Traitor (3)

Hearing this, the team leaders who originally wanted to say that they were going sank, those who didn't want to go stayed still, and those who wanted to go had already greeted their troops.

A team leader who wanted to go but was unwilling, cursed in a low voice: "Damn, I didn't expect to come here and obey the command of a logistics second lieutenant!"

"Hey, brother, it's better to be silent. You must know that the supplies for the horses we are riding now are all obtained by Second Lieutenant Zhao Hu from gambling. According to regulations, these items are all private property of Second Lieutenant Zhao Hu."

"Don't forget, what we are eating now is not military rations!" Although he couldn't understand these guys who would eat when they picked up the bowl and scold when they put down the bowl, Geralt couldn't help reminding that after hearing this, the captain They were stunned for a moment, looked at the horses stationed beside them, and looked at the more than 100 giant carriages occupying one foot of the camp.

Geralt couldn't help laughing secretly when he saw these squad leaders who were sullenly calling out the troops: "You guys are so cheap, you forgot that they are still your food and clothing parents!"

Zhao Hu expressed his intention to the second lieutenant who came to meet them, and the imperial army, which was on alert because of the gathering of Zhao Hu's troops, breathed a sigh of relief.The second lieutenant also kindly let go, and sent a small team of cavalry as a guide.

In fact, the second lieutenant had confirmed Zhao Hu's identity long ago. Being familiar with the world, he also understood why Zhao Hu's identity had not been answered. As for this point, the second lieutenant would not meddle in other people's business.

Second Lieutenant Jing was not afraid that people like Zhao Hu would escape. First, all their weapons were confiscated. Second, more than 150 huge carriages full of supplies and so many horses were still parked in the barracks. This was a huge fortune. I don't believe Zhao Hu would give up so easily

You must know that from the perspective of the above, this batch of supplies is worth more than these thousand people

The small team leading the way was very friendly to people like Zhao Hu. Firstly, the soldiers had long recognized the identities of people like Zhao Hu. Secondly, these people not only did not consume the food in their camp, but also allowed themselves to enjoy the prairie. Serving delicious mutton, since it has nothing to do with him, and he can still get some benefits, there is no loss in being friendly.Why not do it?

The guide led Zhao Hu and his party to a mountainous area with a thick smog and a strong sulfur smell. Looking at it like this, one could tell it was a hot spring area.

There are no very large warm water lakes in this hot spring, they are all small lakes with a diameter of three to four meters, but there are many of them, at least hundreds of them.

Because it is adjacent to the border and the environment is not very good, this hot spring has not been developed. The arrival of thousands of people immediately scared away a large number of mountain monkeys soaking in the hot spring.

I don't know if it's a habit or something, the servant soldiers soaked in the outermost hot spring, the imperial soldiers went a little further in, and the squad leader, Zhao Hu and his relatives were in the innermost, and Zhou Wen unceremoniously occupied the innermost corner. A hot spring eye, and at the same time, Locke, Luo Fei, Dio, and Weijie were placed in the front of a hot spring eye, blocking the sight of those who intentionally or unintentionally aimed at this side, Zhao Hu guided Geralt and The captains soaked together.

The squad leader of the local garrison didn't feel anything yet, but the squad leaders Zhao Hu belonged to felt that Geralt was too attentive, and even felt like a dog's leg, because he actually helped the family put away the clothes, was too diligent, and even At one point, the captain of the local garrison thought Geralt was an orderly.

Most people didn't notice that when Geralt was finishing his clothes, he quickly took out a roll of sheepskin from his pocket and stuffed it into a piece of clothing, and then quickly took a piece of sheepskin and stuffed it into his pocket.

He didn't realize that when he was pulling out the parchment, the black wolf next to Zhao Hu glared at him, bared his teeth and growled, but Zhao Hu patted his head. Te closed his eyes at a glance, and there was no roar
And Geralt, who didn't know that his behavior had already fallen into Zhao Hu's eyes, took off his clothes and entered the hot spring as if nothing had happened, and got up with Zongren.

Most of the imperial soldiers were moaning comfortably, while the servant soldiers were yelling. The prairie people who had never enjoyed the hot springs were really not used to the feeling of soaking in the hot water.After a while, everyone felt that the time was almost up, and they all got up and put on their clothes, and everyone felt refreshed.

Geralt, who was secretly watching Zhao Hu, was relieved to see that Zhao Hu didn't check his clothes, but this time when he went back, he no longer followed Zhao Hu, but walked in front
Since Geralt was walking ahead, he didn't see Zhao Hu, who was surrounded by personal guards and servants not long after he set off, took out the parchment in his arms, and his face was flushed and charming from the hot spring. Zhou Wen asked curiously when he saw the parchment scroll: "My lord, why did you take out the map? It's soaked in water?"

Sun Jie immediately became nervous: "Oh, then you have to dry it right away, this map is very valuable!" He wanted to come and get the map.

Dio slapped Sun Jie's hand, glared at Sun Jie before saying: "The patterns on the sheepskin map are all branded, and they are not afraid of water at all."

Sun Jie also knew that his behavior just now was inappropriate, so he held out his beaten hand and made a silly face with a smirk. Zhao Hu didn't speak, but just handed the parchment to Dio.

Diou looked at Zhao Hu with some doubts, and then opened the parchment. Before he had time to speak, Zhou Wen, who came curiously, had already exclaimed: "Ah, why is there nothing?"

Zhou Wen's exclamation made everyone around look over.

Geralt, who kept his ears up all the time, turned his head and saw something in Zhao Hu's hand. He couldn't see if it was the parchment, so he couldn't help but shuddered, subconsciously whipped his mount, and sped up. up the speed.Dio hurriedly signaled Zhou Wen to shut up, and then asked hesitantly, "My lord, this..."

Zhao Hu stared at Qianwan, and said in a calm but normal tone: "The map has been changed."

Zhou Wen and Sun Jie tensed up when they heard this, and opened their mouths to exclaim, but Dio yelled, "Shut up!" and they suppressed their voices.

"My lord, has this map been changed just now?" Dio asked solemnly.Seeing Zhao Hu nodding, Zhou Wen and Sun Jie desperately suppressed the desire to swear. They are not idiots. The map must have been changed when they took off their clothes and soaked in the hot spring. Needless to say, the person who did it was soaking with Mr. Zhao Hu. One of the team leaders of the hot springs.

"Damn the local troops, no wonder they don't recognize our identities. Their feelings are to rob us of our achievements!" Zhou Wen gritted his teeth and said, "They all think that they are the subordinates of the leader who led the way."

Sun Jie raised his whip and urged Ma Duibei to rush forward to argue with the team leader, but Sang grabbed the bridle and wanted to ask, but was silenced by Zhao Hu's words: "It's not a local army".

Zhou Wensun Jiediou was stunned for a while, then he couldn't believe it, and finally he was furious.Not a local army?That is to say, it was the small captain of the imperial army who lived and died with him across the grassland for thousands of miles.

Dio and the others would never suspect Zhao Hu's nonsense, and it was because of this that they were even more distressed. People who have no heart and soul will take credit for it!
My lord, which ungrateful bastard did it?I fight him! " Vejelic's blood-devouring growl

Now he can't wait to gnaw on that person, but he is so ungrateful!It doesn't matter if you are ungrateful and reconsidered, how dare you take the credit for your lord's last achievement?

But Dio told him that once the map is handed in, the school-level military rank is absolutely indispensable

Zhao Hu shook his head and didn't say a word, but Dio thought for a while, then patted Sun Jie on the shoulder and said, "Forget it, let's pretend that there is no such map."

Both Sun Jie and Zhou Wen stared away in disbelief. Even Zhao Hu looked at Dio with some doubts. He was very excited just now, why did he suddenly change?

Zhao Hu didn't care much about the map. It was because he didn't care about how much merit he could get by turning in the map, and because Liu Bin, a top cartographer, could make another map at any time.

It may be said that Zhao Hu has no awareness of endangering the soldiers of the empire, and it doesn't matter that such an important map is gone.

Dio sighed and said, "It's not that I'm not angry, but think of a little captain, why would he abandon his life-and-death friendship with us and risk the death penalty of claiming meritorious service to steal the map?"

"You have to know that there is a second lieutenant like Mr. Zhao Hu. A sergeant has absolutely no right to hand in the map to him in exchange for meritorious service. And as long as the lord turns in the map, the meritorious rewards will definitely be indispensable to the officers below. Why would he risk his life?" How about stealing the map from the danger of someone else?"

Zhou Wen and Sun Jie were taken aback when they heard this.

Zhou Wen tilted his head and thought, while Sun Jie scratched his head and frowned, thinking hard, yes, one side has no benefits, while the other side has many benefits, why choose the side that has no benefits?It's really a headache, I don't understand the other party at all, why do I do this?
"There are powerful people behind him." Zhao Hu said with a soft sigh.

These words made Zhou Wen and Sun Jie suddenly realize.

Dio also nodded and said: "Yes, there is a person behind that person who can use that map to make great achievements."

"But, didn't the empire stipulate that falsely claiming meritorious service is a capital offense?" Zhou Wen asked a little puzzled.

"That's the rule, but the dignitaries don't take it seriously at all. If it weren't for the higher-ranking dignitaries, do you think my last master would have had his family ransacked and exterminated for violating the law? This matter It's the same everywhere," Dio sighed.

Sun Jie may not have understood the rules of darkness, he said angrily: "Even so, aren't the dignitaries afraid of us yelling out?"
