Chapter 325 Brother, are you stupid?
The old general was reluctant to give up his wealth and glory, and was worried about being suspected by His Majesty, so he gave up the general without hesitation. He was really cruel.
But if he killed the old general Tang, the general would definitely hate him.
He didn't want the general to hate him.
Tang Jue put his hands behind his back and slowly approached: "Do you know who killed the general?"
"I, I don't know. If I knew who killed the general, I would definitely be silenced. How, how could I stand here?" "
I remembered that there is still a place on the crossbow that needs to be improved. I'll leave first."
Song Ci found an excuse and took the opportunity to run away.
"This Song Ci stutters when he's nervous. I just asked him a few questions and he stuttered like this. It seems that there must be some hidden story behind the general's death."
He wanted to know what happened back then, but everyone was covering up the truth, so it would be difficult to find out anything.
After thinking it over, he thought of the person who was most likely to find out the truth.
Li Zhi.
Li Zhi was young, simple-minded, and he admired Gan Fanren very much.
With a little provocation, he would probably tell everything.
Li Zhi lived in Gan's house.
If you want to see Li Zhi, you have to go to Gan's house.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally came to Gan's house.
Unexpectedly, God seemed to be helping him. Before he could find someone to report, he saw Li Zhi coming out of the house with a silly smile on his face.
"Li Zhi."
He waved to Li Zhi.
Li Zhi came to him obediently.
He crossed his arms and asked, "I have something to ask you."
"Do you know anything about General Tang's death?"
"General Tang? Which General Tang?" Li Zhi shook his head.
"Half of the people in the Tang Family Army who were rescued by General Tang Shi took the general's surname Tang."
Tang Shi liked to rescue beggars and orphans.
The beggars and orphans he rescued, if they didn't have a surname, took his surname Tang.
Therefore, many people in the Tang Family Army took the surname Tang.
Tang Jue knew that Li Zhi was stupid, but he didn't expect him to be so stupid, and his face turned black.
"The General Tang I'm talking about is of course Tang Shi, General Tang."
"General Tang, General Tang is not dead, why are you cursing him?"
Tang Jue put down his arms, shocked: "What did you say?"
"General Tang is not dead?"
"Of course, my brother, Li Yunfeng, Tang Shi and I personally sent him away."
"How could this be possible?"
"I just met General Tang, and he said that the general was killed by the lord."
Li Zhi was unhappy when he heard it: "What does Lao Deng know? If he hadn't watched him die and refused to take the golden medal of immunity from death, General Tang wouldn't have to hide his identity and leave his hometown."
"He is so shameless. He dares not admit what he did, and even dares to slander my elder brother. Where is he? I will kill him."
Tang Jue's brain was confused.
Thinking of the scene where Li Yunfeng pointed to his waist, the clues in his mind were connected all at once.
The person who could use the death-free gold medal proved that it was His Majesty who wanted to kill the general.
The old general could obviously use the death-free gold medal, but for some reason, he did not use it.
General Tang had to fake his death to escape.
"So the old general didn't know about General Tang's death?"
"Brother, are you stupid? How could he know?"
"At first, he persuaded General Tang to die voluntarily. If he knew that General Tang was still alive, he would definitely capture General Tang."
Tang Jue thought that it would take some effort to get the answer from Li Zhi, but he didn't expect to learn the truth so easily.
"That's right. According to General Tang's character, he would definitely capture the general."
"Is the general okay now?"
Li Zhi shook his head.
"I don't know, but the general had money on him when he left, and his kung fu is so powerful, he shouldn't be in danger."
At this moment, Tang Jue understood.
The old general was not as good as he remembered. The gentleness and kindness on his face were just a pretense.
What he did today seemed to be just for the sake of talking, but in fact it was a cheap espionage plan. If it weren't for Li Yunfeng's timely advice, he would have fallen into the trap of General Tang.
To be honest, he didn't trust his lord enough, so he was overwhelmed.
Fortunately, this happened before the war and has not caused any irreversible consequences.
He took out the sword he carried with him and wiped it over and over again.
General, I may disappoint you.
I must win this battle so that I can make amends for my lord.
For several days in a row, General Tang did not wait for Tang Jue's reply, nor did he hear any news from Gan Fanren, and his face could not help but become gloomy.
The young generals around him laughed and said, "The old general played that play really badly. Tang Jue didn't believe it at all."
"I think there is no need to wait. It is better to surround Jianan Pass as soon as possible."
"I think it is a good idea. Now our troops are idle for this matter. A lot of military pay is wasted every day. Let's go to war directly."
"Tang Jue has not been fooled. The mission entrusted by His Majesty cannot be completed. If we can recapture Jianan Pass, His Majesty will also reward us."
Several young generals are eager to try and can't wait to start the war.
Old General Tang also understands that Tang Jue has not been heard from so far, and he is afraid that he has not been fooled.
Winning this battle is his only way to regain His Majesty's trust.
"Tang Jue's skills were all taught by my son Tang Shi, and what my son learned was taught by me personally, so I have a plan..."
Old General Tang stroked his beard and spoke slowly.
After hearing this, the other young generals looked at each other in bewilderment: "Will this work?"
"Isn't it too risky?"
"Tang Jue is very cautious. If we don't use this method, it will be difficult to defeat him."
"This battle depends entirely on the generals."
The next day, Jianan Pass was surrounded by General Tang's men.
No one could enter or leave the entire Jianan Pass.
Several young generals stood outside the military camp and shouted.
"Listen, rebels inside. Considering that you are all citizens of Dayun and have been deceived by the bad guys, if you are willing to lay down your butcher knives and surrender immediately, we will forgive you for your past mistakes."
The soldiers of Jianan Pass were not panicked at all, and even cracked melon seeds in front of them.
The melon seed shells flew onto the heads of several young generals.
Several young generals shook their heads violently, shook off the melon seed shells on their bodies, and their faces were gloomy.
"This is an opportunity for you, don't be ignorant."
"Come on!"
The leading young general waved his hand, and the soldiers around him immediately rushed towards the soldiers of Jianan Pass.
Tang Jue's eyes sank slightly, and he rushed forward with a knife.
His swordsmanship was outstanding, and he killed one person with one sword.
The soldiers under his command were not much inferior, and killed many soldiers of Dayun.
The faces of several young generals were extremely ugly. After looking at each other, they nodded.
"Retreat..."
They fled in panic. Tang Jue's deputy general watched them escape in disgrace and couldn't help laughing.
"The soldiers of Dayun are really worse than one another. General, should we pursue them?"
