Chapter 124 Going back (2)
When Huang Ji received the news, his mouth was wide open and the expressions of the soldiers were dumbstruck. It was unexpected that the Xiongnu fought with the western foreigners first without even fighting them, forcing the Xiongnu to flee back in sorry state.
To be honest, when Huang Ji first received the news from the spies, he thought that it was a trick of the Xiongnu. How could the western foreigners fight the Xiongnu for no apparent reason. Did they take the wrong medicine?
Therefore, Huang Ji didn’t dare to act rashly and ordered to monitor carefully.
However, when the blood almost became a river on both sides, he finally believed that it was true and it seemed that this battle didn’t require him to intervene.
Not long after, the war between Great Liang, the Xiongnu and the western foreigners broke out unexpectedly like this. Of course, the Xiongnu were facing enemies on both sides. Although, this war was fought without head and tail, it indeed broke out.
After the western foreigners who had taken the wrong medicine joined, Great Liang became much more relaxed. The war came to a halt after two months because the winter had arrived again and no one could continue the war.
Guarding the northwest was the most important thing, so, these soldiers didn’t have the habit of going home for the new year, but Zhao Zimu handed Huang Ji a request for a leave of absence. Without doubt, it had been rejected. So, she passed the request to Chen Jin…
Chen Jin summoned her and asked her for the reason with a solemn expression. Perhaps, in Chen Jin’s heart nothing was greater than his mission and responsibility, but it was different for Zhao Zimu.
Zhao Zimu frowned and cupped her hands at Chen Jin, “General, this subordinate only asks for fifteen days and will immediately return to the camp after fifteen days and will definitely not delay my duty.”
Fifteen days were already long for some people, but for Zhao Zimu it was only enough to make one round trip from the northwest to Liang capital. It was really short, but she had to go back.
Chen Jin stared at her for a while, frowned and asked, “Are you worried about your wife, children and old mother at home?”
Chen Jin naturally didn’t know who was in Zhao Zimu’s household. He only guessed. After all, in his opinion, Zhao Zimu was just a recruit who has arrived in the northwest for less than a year. It was very normal to be homesick.
Zhao Zimu’s eyelids jumped and said without hesitation, “Yes…”
“Zhao Zhong, you have to know that we are the soldiers of Great Liang. For Great Liang, what is our own personal matters? Now, it is troubled times, your behavior is inappropriate.”
Chen Jin persuaded very tactfully, but it was also refusing in disguise. Zhao Zimu didn’t say a word and only looked firmly at him.
Chen Jin got angry, slapped the table and said with a deep voice, “If you care so much about your family, are you not afraid that you won’t be able to go back if you accidentally die on the battle? What are you doing here? Do you think that I won’t sack you from your post?!”
Chen Jin’s threats were already very impolite. Zhao Zimu’s calm expression finally became intertwined. Afterwards, she turned and prepared to leave under Chen Jin’s stunned expression.
“Stop!” Chen Jin got anxious. Was this little bastard really going to give up his current status for this? He had never been able to guess what this bastard was thinking. So, Chen Jin was really afraid that he would quit.
Zhao Zimu stopped and looked at him while slightly frowning.
“You, you, you!” Chen Jin was so angry that he didn’t know what to say. How could he be so indifferent? Was he serious? Really wanting to give up his great future? Could it be that he really doesbn’t want the merits that he worked so hard for this past year? Just because he didn’t let him take a vacation?
Chen Jin felt that his chest felt like a large stuffed cotton ball. It was very uncomfortable. Although, he knew that Zhao Zimu was Lin Qing’s subordinate, but no matter what his identity was, he made countless of achievements for Great Liang. Chen Jin also regarded her quite highly and deliberately disciplined her temper. He even regarded her as his younger generation, but now she prepared to quit because he didn’t approve of her vacation.
If his will to join the northwest army could be so easily shaken, then, why did he choose to join the northwest army in the beginning?
Could it be because of Lin Qing’s order? But if he is a spy that Lin Qing inserted in the northwest army, then how could Lin Qing let him go back so easily?
Just when the two were deadlocked, someone walked into the tent. The person who could directly walk into the tent without reporting first was naturally Situ Yuanxiao.
Two months had passed. Whether it was the leg injury, the scorpion bite or the ‘shit’ injury, Situ Yuanxiao’s injuries had been healed completely. He was wearing an expensive silver-white robe now and his face was a bit rosy. He glanced once at Zhao Zimu after he came in and then turned his gaze to Chen Jin.
Chen Jin hurriedly curtsied to him. Situ Yuanxiao waved his hand and also curtsied to him. Then, he said, “I heard that brother Zhao wants to go back. Don’t know where it is, will it be the same way as me? General Chen, you also don’t have to be so strict. Our war with the Xiongnu has already stopped. Presumably, they won’t harass our Great Liang again until next year. All the soldiers shed blood and sweat for Great Liang. Moreover, brother Zhao has done so much for our Great Liang during the short time he was here. Now that he is homesick, what harm is there to let him go back and see his family?”
“Your Highness…” It seemed that Situ Yuanxiao had heard the conversation between the two of them and now he was pleading, how could he (CJ) decline?
But why does fifth prince like to be entangled with Zhao Zhong? Their standing was the opposite of each other!
Chen Jin couldn’t understand…
He humphed heavily at Zhao Zimu and then said solemnly, “After you return, go get thirty beatings from the army!”
Thirty…
She silently stared at the silver brocade on Situ Yuanxiao for a moment. Zhao Zimu’s eyelids twitched and she sighed helplessly.
Thirty, okay thirty… She would retrieve that from Lin Qing after she sees him…
