Chapter 231: Will the Enemy Discover Us?
Zhang Zhi seemed speechless after hearing this.
"General, it's better to leave the gathering of information to the scouts. Your safety is the most important."
Xiao Ning said: "Don't worry."
Zhang Zhi: “…”
Can't let go at all.
But he also knew that once the general made a decision, no one could change it.
And along the way, the general's decisions have indeed been correct.
He could only grit his teeth and remind Xiao Ning to be careful.
Xiao Ning smiled when he heard that. He raised his hand, clenched his fist, and hit Zhang Zhi on the shoulder. "Got it. You should pay more attention to your side recently and be ready for battle at any time."
Zhang Zhi responded.
Watched Xiao Ning and the others go away.
Seventy miles is not a short distance, so we must avoid being discovered by the enemy's scouts.
Several people took a detour and did not ride horses.
By the time we arrived near the rebel camp, two days had passed.
There are villages around.
The rebels had obviously occupied the small county town behind them, and the people had to be interrogated by the rebels if they wanted to enter the city.
Several people hid in the dark and observed.
Chu Wu said, "General, it's just as you expected. It's that team."
"Yes, this is the first time I've seen rebels smile so kindly towards the people."
"I just don't know how strong their troops are and how likely they are to fight us."
"That person is definitely not as good as ours. Our general is nothing. He is just a small peasant. Even if he has some crappy military advisor, he can't compare to our general."
"That's right, the general is from a Wuhou family!"
"Let's not talk about anything else, just look at our extremely rigorous training. Can they withstand it?"
"Even if they can bear it, can their little peasant or that crappy military advisor come up with such a horrific training method?"
"that is……"
Several people talked at once, belittling the rebels and praising Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning raised his hand speechlessly, "Come on, be quiet. Why don't you observe each other carefully and start blowing here?"
Several people: "..."
They are telling the truth, how can they be exaggerating?
After observing for two days, they dispersed and pretended to be civilians to pass through the checkpoint guarded by the rebels.
Even Chu Wu was favored by the rebels, who warmly invited him to join the army.
Chu Wu rolled his eyes and agreed.
After Xiao Ning learned about it: "..."
She looked up at the sky speechlessly and said, "It's okay. He will join his army. Let's go and find out what's going on."
Xiao Ning and his companions arrived at the enemy's rear and saw that the people there were indeed living in harmony.
Zhang Zhai touched his chin and said in surprise, "Is that so? I feel like this person... uh, has the same philosophy of military management as us."
As soon as I came in, it was like I was walking behind them.
It just... feels very familiar.
The people were also surprised that this group of rebels did not engage in burning, killing and looting.
I was alert and cautious, but also felt surprised.
The rebels who had previously occupied Jinzhou City passed through here, and those who did not have time to escape were killed under their horses.
Women would be dragged to a secluded place and raped.
Later, the imperial army arrived. They were called the Xiao Family Army. They defeated the brutal rebel army and distributed food to various places.
But now another group has come, calling themselves the rebel army.
Although their behavior is not as good as that of the Xiao family army, they have never hurt anyone.
After observing for a few days and seeing that they really would not hurt anyone, the people went back to their own lives.
As for who fights whom and who sits on the throne.
What does it have to do with them?
No matter who is the emperor, they will still live like this.
Xiao Ning and his companions acted separately, agreed on a time and place to meet, and integrated intelligence.
Chu Wu didn't come for several days.
Zhang Zhai asked, "Will the enemy discover us?"
Xu Zhi said: "Perhaps they feel that the enemy's treatment is so good that they don't want to return to their homeland."
"Chu Wu is smart, he shouldn't be discovered."
Although he said that, Xiao Ning frowned and couldn't help feeling anxious about Chu Wu's previous risky behavior.
"Wait two more days. If Chu Wu doesn't come out to join me, I'll go and scout the enemy camp."
"How can you do that? That's the enemy camp. If you go in, you'll be walking right into the tiger's mouth."
"That's right. How can you risk it for Chu Wu? We should be the ones to go."
As they were talking, they heard a slight noise outside.
Everyone exchanged glances, held their breath, and stood up in an instant, walking in a staggered manner, relying on each other.
The moment the figure came in, several people attacked at the same time.
"No, no, no, brothers, we are one family..."
In an instant, both sides had already exchanged five or six moves.
The familiar voice made several people stop.
"Chu Wu!"
"You kid!"
Seeing that it was Chu Wu, several of them put their arms around his shoulders and slapped him hard on the back.
"Hey, Brother Zhang, you want to beat me to death?"
"You deserve to be beaten to death! You are a soldier of the rebels now, you are not on the same side as us."
Chu Wu said, "What rebel soldier? I'm from the Xiao family army. It was because the rebels offered me such a generous gift that day that I just followed their lead. The main reason was to get military reports for us."
Zhang Zhai snorted, "So what did you find out? It better be useful, otherwise, not only the general, but even we will not let you go!"
"Yes, you went to the rebel camp and there was no news for several days. We were so worried. The general even said that if you didn't come back in two days, we should go to the rebel camp to check on you."
Upon hearing this, Chu Wu hurriedly looked towards Xiao Ning.
He clasped his fists and said shyly, "General, even if something happens to my subordinates, you can't put yourself in danger."
Xiao Ning didn't answer this, but he pondered the word "rebel army" and said with a smile: "It seems that you have a good impression of them during the past few days in the camp."
Chu Wu: “…”
It really feels good to be there these days.
It feels very simple.
But he also remembered his identity and would never forget his mission just because he had been in the rebel army for a few days.
If the two armies must fight, he will definitely fight bravely.
Chu Wu knelt on one knee, clasped his fists towards Xiao Ning and said, "General, this group is indeed different from the rebels we've encountered before. I remember my identity and mission, but their actions are truly worthy of the title 'rebel army.'"
Xiao Ning said, "Get up. What they did is indeed worthy of the word 'righteousness'. You are not wrong."
Chu Wu stood up, walked up to Xiao Ning, and said, "I have not been idle these past few days. I have learned about the life of Zhang Dashu, the leader of the rebel army."
Xiao Ning raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Tell me about it."
If you understand his life experience, you will be more familiar with his personality traits and his habits of doing things.
Maybe it can help with the peace talks.
Fighting means sacrifice.
If they were extremely vicious people, then she had to kill them, but if this team really loved the people and were kind, why should she kill them all?
It would be best to resolve this matter through peace talks.
If the other party refuses to negotiate and insists on opening fire, then we will have a real fight.
"This Zhang Dashu is from Zhangjia Village in Xu County. His father is an alcoholic and a gambler, so all the work at home falls on his mother. Zhang Dashu and his siblings were also raised by their mother..."
