Chapter 110 Impossible to guard against (1)
Situ Yuanxiao licked the corners of his dry lips and walked towards the person laying on the recliner. He glared sharp like sword at the person who was buried in the book.
Hearing the sneer, Zhao Zimu raised her head and glanced once at him. After greeting him, she lowered her head again.
Situ Yuanxiao seemed to have gotten used to her temper. He found a vacant place and sat down. Before he could speak, Yue Wu ran over. Behind him were a group of misshapen men. Yue Wu curtsied first to Situ Yuanxiao and then said to Zhao Zimu, “Commander, the autumn festal is coming. The soldiers requested a day off.”
Zhao Zimu raised her head from the book and swept once over them. Not far away, the people who had fallen on the ground long ago still sneaked glances at her. Seeing her look over, they immediately changed into the ostrich posture, burying their heads.
“Assemble!” Zhao Zimu walked to the front of them and shouted. Her voice was cold, pleasing to the ear and brought a manner that could make people lose their breath.
With a bang, the people who had fallen to the ground and who only had half a breath left, bounced up instantly. They stood in line and waited with a respectful expression for Zhao Zimu’s command.
This scene made the heart of Situ Yuanxiao who had been sitting at a side, skip a beat. He was unable to take his eyes off them and the doubts in his heart deepened.
The discipline of this troop was so strict and he personally saw the intensity that they were trained with. The affirmation in Situ Yuanxiao’s heart grow stronger.
“Everyone, listen. Groom for one day from now one. Return to the unit at this time tomorrow!”
As soon as Zhao Zimu’s voice fell, the soldiers of the entire troop of hundred uttered cheers. The eyes looking at Zhao Zimu became reverent.
This was because this commander of theirs not only ignored everyone and led them to kill the Xiongnu, he also personally led them to grow with the butcher knife step by step until they had become a group that will strike terror at the enemy. He was their hero.
A guy named Niu Wa in the camp couldn’t help but shout loudly, “Commander can go have fun with us!”
The other people also began to make noise. The moment Yue Liu who was more mature heard that, he knew that it was no good. Because if the usual entertainment of these rough soldiers was not wine, meat and gamble, it would be visiting a low-grade brothel. If they dragged madam with them when they were excited…
Yue Liu couldn’t help but shiver. When he wanted to open his mouth and stop them, Zhao Zimu said with interest, “How do you want to have fun?”
To be honest, except for her cold expression, Zhao Zimu was sensitive to people’s needs. That was why some of the soldiers dared to joke with her like this.
One soldier laughed mysteriously and said in a low voice, “Commander just came to the border for a few months and must not know where the places to have the most fun are. This brother will definitely take you to have fun later. We will treat you!”
The other soldiers also made sound of approval. Everyone showed smiles that only men understood and they smirked tacitly.
That guy Yue Wu also smirked there without care. Yue Liu had already put his hand on his forehead from headache because he knew that although the expression of those silly soldiers was understood by men, but their madam was not a man! Did she understand it?!
Yue Liu turned around in pain and whispered a few words to Yue Qi. Yue Qi nodded coolly, then turned and left.
At this time, Zhao Zimu turned around and said to Situ Yuanxiao who she had been ignoring, “Your Highness, did you come this time because of something?”
Situ Yuanxiao had a cold expression and said stiffly, “If here is nothing, can’t I come? Why, you don’t welcome me?”
Zhao Zimu seriously considered whether to tell truth. Situ Yuanxiao immediately waved his hand when he saw her expression and said, “Forget it, where are you planning to go? I will come with you.”
To be honest, Situ Yuanxiao had always wanted to find Zhao Zimu’s fault, rectify her and kick her out. However, he never had the chance. It seemed that the chance has come now, how could he miss it?
Also, even though Situ Yuanxiao was a prince, nevertheless, he still concentrated on practical matters after he came to the northwest. Hence, he hasn’t been invited to have fun by the people who flattered him. He was unfamiliar with the border like Zhao Zimu.
Zhao Zimu waved her hand indifferently and didn’t care. So, she let someone bring a horse over. Every soldier also went to the stable to fetch his horse. Each one of them moved quickly and swiftly on the horse’s and brought a mighty and sturdy ambiance at once.
Situ Yuanxiao’s pupils shrank while looking at them. He also let someone bring his horse over and went alongside them.
Situ Yuanxiao had already noticed that the horses of Zhao Zimu’s subordinates were rare good horses of the entire camp. Situ Yuanxiao who understood horses, naturally saw that this kind of horses have strong explosive power and good endurance. It was really suitable for long-term raids on the grassland.
From the uniform movements of the soldiers just now, Situ Yuanxiao indistinctively felt the iron smell of blood. Also, this kind of smell was only found in the elite troop who had experienced all kinds of battles.
Situ Yuanxiao tidied his thoughtful expression and waited to depart together. He wanted to see how Zhao Zhong and his team would behave. If they happened to commit a crime, he would go report them to Chen Jin and then transfer him to his troop. No matter how outstanding and capable, he wouldn’t be able to escape from his palm.
