Lonely non-good minister

Zhou Ye nodded with a smile and dropped the topic.

Before the congratulations were over, a young general broke in and reported: "Report to the general, the Huns who were captured alive just confessed that they had ambushed the commander, and the commander and his party were forced out of the country after being attacked. In order to avoid future troubles, their commander specially arranged a troop We are in hot pursuit, but the troops have not come back yet.”

Hearing this, everyone looked solemn, and Ning Yu suddenly sobered up and stood up immediately.

"Bring the person up." It was about Song Run, and he wanted to ask it himself.

Soon, the Xiongnu who confessed the matter was brought up. His naked body was covered with scars, his face was bruised, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth. He had obviously been beaten.

He explained the whole story again, and the context of the matter became clear.

They knew Song Run's whereabouts in advance, so they set up an ambush. Although they were fully prepared to capture Song Run alive, they didn't want to let Song Run run away. Song Run was injured, and the group was directly forced by them. Outside the country, in order to prevent Song Run and others from turning back and entering the customs, their commander even arranged for two or three hundred people to hunt them down. Now none of the people who went to chase them have come back.

"The fact that the chasing Huns haven't come back means that the coach is most likely still dealing with them." Ning Yu's heart ignited hope: "Even if it's a risk, you have to send someone to look for it."

Others immediately echoed. Everyone knew that if Song Run could not come back, the careers of all the generals in the northern army would be cut off. This was the emperor's legitimate son and the crown prince's brother, and he was very important.

Zhou Ye was more concerned about another thing: "The coach's whereabouts are confidential. How did you know about it in advance?"

This question caused everyone to fall silent, and even Ning Yu noticed something was wrong.

"I heard that our commander received the news in advance. I don't know the specific situation." He is just a pawn, and it is not easy to find out this.

Zhou Ye did not continue to ask, but the thoughts in the hearts of everyone present changed in these few sentences.

"Keep it under custody and you will be detained for a long time." Ning Yu emphasized.

Jiu He's good mood was gone. Facing the people with different expressions, Ning Yu made arrangements in advance and sent out several teams of casual riders with enough food and water to go out to search for Song Run. As for other matters, he suppressed Don't talk about it, but even so, the news has to be reported to the top. Ning Yu didn't dare to hide anything, so he wrote it down in detail on the note and had it sent to Beijing.

In order to prevent the Xiongnu from adding to the chaos, Ning Yu blocked two more attacks, forcing the Xiongnu to break camp and retreat hundreds of miles. They were defeated miserably and needed a long time to rest and recuperate. They could no longer resist the Wei attack in a short period of time.

Half a month later, the good news finally came that Song Run was found.

When Zhou Ye heard the news, he immediately rushed towards the camp. When he arrived outside the coach's tent, he saw Ning Yu and others waiting outside with solemn expressions. This cast a shadow over Zhou Ye.

"General Ning, what's going on with the coach now?" Zhou Ye really had to ask more. When he returned to the northwest, he would have to explain it to Song Fu.

Ning Yu frowned: "Everyone around him is dead. The coach is seriously injured and only has one breath left."

Zhou Ye had expected this situation a long time ago. After all, being alive in such a situation was already the greatest luck. But looking at Ning Yu's situation, I'm afraid it was more serious than what he said.

After a while, a military doctor came out and shook his head regretfully at everyone: "The coach's injury was not treated with medicine in time. There are too many ulcers and the high fever is difficult to cure. I'm afraid. If we can find a famous doctor, there may be a glimmer of hope." Ning Yu didn't know at all. If he dared to hesitate, he immediately ordered people to go to the city to find a famous doctor. At the same time, he traveled eight hundred miles to send a message about the capital.

After arranging these things, he entered the tent, followed by Zhou Ye. Although he had been mentally prepared, as soon as he got close to Song Run, the smell of corrupt blood still made him, who was used to the battlefield full of flesh and blood, his breath stagnant. The armor that had been left aside and not taken away was tattered and stained, and its original appearance could not be seen at all. The shirt worn under the armor was even sticky and smelly, and its color had changed.

Song Run was lying naked on the bed. The wound was rotting and suppurating. Even after cleaning it, the foul-smelling pus and blood still wrapped him around him. If he looked closely at the rotting area, he could almost see wriggling maggots. He himself had his eyes closed tightly. If it weren't for his chest, There were still slight ups and downs, and no one could believe that this person was still alive.

Zhou Ye couldn't imagine how painful it was. In his memory, Song Run was a very clean and refreshing person even when he was in the army. He was very different from the smelly soldiers. He just stood there, It makes people feel that it has its own fragrance and is not stained by the mundane world.

But it is such a person who looks like this now.

"Coach." Ning Yu's voice was tight, her lips moved and she really didn't know what to say, and her voice was very soft: "Do you want to pick up the princess?"

Song Run's breathing stopped, and he squeezed out one word from his throat with great difficulty: ".No."

He knew how scary he looked now, and he didn't want the person he loved most to see him like this. If she did, she would be sad.

"Second Master." Zhou Ye knelt beside the couch and could no longer control his emotions: "Don't touch Zhou Ye. Second Master can tell the general to you if you have anything to say."

Song Run's lips trembled, and with an acquaintance beside him, he obviously had a lot to say, but he was too weak to say all the words in his heart.

"Two generals, please allow me to clean the coach's wound. It may be delayed for a few days." The military doctor had already brought in clean hot water.

Ning Yu and Zhou Ye hurriedly stepped aside. The military doctor rolled up his sleeves and carefully scrubbed away the stains, pus and blood on Song Run's body. There were more and more clean areas on his body, and the true appearance of the wounds became clearer and clearer.

There were knife wounds, arrow wounds, scratches, and wounds left by wild beast bites. Military doctors even pulled out a broken wolf tooth from his flesh.
Ning Yu frowned, but Zhou Ye felt cold.

"Can these rotten flesh be cut off? Can the wounds be healed by careful care after cutting them off?" Ning Yu asked with a glimmer of hope.

The military doctor did not dare to answer directly and scrubbed silently.

"Stop asking." Zhou Ye stopped him. No one knew better than him how bad Song Run's situation was now.

He believed that Song Run could bear the pain of cutting off the carrion, but bacterial infection was the most deadly. In this era, there was no cure for bacterial infection.

"Is there any strong alcohol? The very strong kind." Zhou Ye said: "After wiping it clean, use the strong alcohol to rub around the wound."

The military doctor glanced at him and nodded.

They walked out, and Ning Yu looked very unhappy. He thought of the envelope he sent to Jingzhao half a month ago. If Song Run was really gone, that envelope might be a reminder for the northern army.
