Chapter 477: After a Woman Disguised as a Man is Exposed 8
By the time Chu Yuan packed up his things, holding a tattered quilt and smelly socks that hadn't been washed for several days and had been found from somewhere, and reporting to the general's tent with a fearless expression, he found that the general had already left.
The soldiers guarding the door had been called back. When they saw Chu Yuan appear, they quickly invited her in.
"Hello, Guard Chu. The general has already told us that you will live on this small couch outside from now on. The general has also asked us to go to a nearby farmer's house and find a skilled woman to make new bedding for you."
"Okay, trouble."
The preparations were so thorough, it was obvious that it had been planned for a long time. Perhaps General Wei had been thinking about this during the days when he was away on the mission.
Looking at the new bed and bedding in front of him, Chu Yuan decisively threw the original owner's tattered quilt aside and rolled over on his new bed.
In addition to the bed, the general also prepared a separate wooden box for her to store her daily clothes. After Chu Yuan put all her things in place, she went out to report to the general.
She did not forget that her current title was the general's personal guard. She could not sleep soundly in the tent while the general was busy running around outside.
After going out and asking the soldier guarding the door, I learned that an imperial edict had arrived today and the general had already taken the generals to receive it.
It was a bit inconvenient for her to appear in such an occasion, so Chu Yuan returned to the tent with peace of mind, slept in her new bed with her clothes on, and took the time to take a short nap.
After running around for so long today, she was already a little tired, especially since she had a big battle to fight in the evening, so she needed to get enough rest.
She slept until the general came back. Fortunately, there was a screen between the outer room and her bed, so Chu Yuan did not act rudely in front of the general.
However, she looked like she had just woken up. The general was already full of anger and had no place to vent it. Now Chu Yuan was in this state again. He had really walked into the trap.
"You're so leisurely, is this how you work as a personal bodyguard?" General Wei looked like a leopard with round eyes, and now he was scolding her in such a harsh tone. If it were an ordinary person at this moment, he would really be scared away a few steps.
But Chu Yuan has experienced so many small worlds and it’s not for nothing. Isn’t it all about momentum and majesty? How can she, who has been a savior, lose to a general from the mortal world?
It's just that given the current situation and her current status and position, it's not appropriate to reveal these things.
If you want to stay in the military camp, you have to submit to this general.
"General, I was negligent. Please punish me."
There was no need to punish her. General Wei knew that his anger was not directed at her, but for the sake of face, he could only raise the matter high and then put it aside lightly: "Then I will punish you by not allowing you to eat tonight."
"Yes, I obey your command." It's just that she is not allowed to eat. There are plenty of snacks in her space, so she won't really starve.
But looking at the general's angry expression, I don't know what was written in today's imperial edict.
Chu Yuan originally thought that it was just an ordinary imperial edict of commendation. After all, every time the general won a battle, His Majesty would send an imperial edict of commendation from thousands of miles away to show his appreciation for General Wei.
Chu Yuan soon got the answer to this question. The imperial edict was read in front of so many people. There was no airtight wall in the military camp, and the contents of the imperial edict spread quickly.
It turns out that our Majesty, who is far away in the city, wants to send a military supervisor to assist in military affairs.
No wonder the general is in such a bad mood today.
Most of the military supervisors sent to the army are civilian officials. It is surprising that Your Majesty would think of letting a scholar who only knows how to read from a script every day command a general who has been on the battlefield for a long time to fight, especially at this critical juncture.
As the saying goes, speed is of the essence in war. The enemy's defense map has just been obtained. If they don't seize this opportunity to attack the city, once the enemy reacts, not only will her and Lieutenant General Deng's trip be in vain, but it will also arouse the enemy's vigilance. It will be difficult to attack the city in a short period of time.
However, if the general were to attack the city immediately as originally planned, people would inevitably think that he was disrespectful to the military supervisors sent by the court.
The military supervisor traveled thousands of miles to the border, but the war had already been fought, so why should he assist in military affairs?
However, according to Chu Yuan, the city must be attacked. The opportunity must be seized and this battle is the only way to capture the enemy's gate with the least loss and the fastest speed.
It’s a pity that she is not a general and her words carry little weight, so she cannot decide on such important military affairs.
She might as well eat some sushi to fill her stomach while the general isn't paying attention.
After dinner, the general left the tent again. This time Chu Yuan hurriedly followed him. As a personal bodyguard, she would stay by the general's side unless he drove her away.
General Wei was very satisfied with her performance this time: "Not bad, I will go to the big tent to discuss military affairs with the generals now, you can follow and listen."
Discussing military affairs late at night? This General Wei is really... diligent.
After entering the big tent, Chu Yuan consciously stood in a corner next to the general. On the surface, he was listening attentively to the arguments of the generals, but in fact, he was already daydreaming.
If she remembered correctly, it should be three quarters past midnight now. Judging from the attitude of the generals, they would probably have to work all night.
This really made Chu Yuan not know what to feel. If she said it was unfortunate, she should be able to escape the disaster temporarily tonight. If she said it was fortunate, she would have to stand here for the whole night and her legs would be broken.
However, the other people in the tent had no time to care about the thoughts of a small guard like Chu Yuan. Even the general who brought her in had forgotten about her existence after he was so absorbed in arranging the battle plan.
The debate over whether to attack the city came to an end only early the next morning when the sun had risen outside.
Finally, due to General Wei's insistence, this siege had to be carried out as soon as possible, otherwise something might happen. It had to be done before the enemy could react and before the military supervisors sent by the court arrived at the border.
So for the next few days, Chu Yuan followed the general, shuttling non-stop between the tents of various military branches, such as the cavalry battalion and the infantry battalion. The level of busyness was beyond imagination.
Not to mention considering matters between men and women, even wanting to find a place to lie down and have a comfortable sleep has become a luxury.
From the first light of dawn to the depth of night, General Wei hardly stopped for a moment. He was either inspecting the situation in the camp or discussing tactics and strategies with his generals.
He was often seen on the training ground or busy handling various military affairs in the camp.
This made Chu Yuan look at him with new respect again. Humans are really contradictory and complex creatures.
