Chapter 568: Sneak attack, no martial ethics!(1/2)
Zhang Mao rolled his eyes and suddenly said angrily: "Good boy, how dare you trick me, take it down!"
Before Alejandro could react, he found that someone had already stepped forward and put a knife on Ancru's neck.
Ancru shouted in fright and raised his hands in the air, trying to prove his innocence.
Alejandro quickly asked: "General Zhang, why is this?"
Zhang Mao said with a dark face: "The two armies pretended to surrender in front of the formation. This kind of trick is leftover from our ancestors. You still want to deceive me?"
Alejandro was a little confused and asked: "General, how did you figure it out?"
At the same time, Ancru babbled an explanation, then reached into his arms to dig it out. This move immediately aroused the Ming army's vigilance, and they directly pressed him to the ground.
Alejandro translated: "General, he said he has a token on him."
"Take it out and take a look."
"yes!"
Alejandro searched Ancru's body and quickly took out a wooden token with many Persian words written on it.
"General, please look at this. This is the officer's token of the Aries Kingdom. The material is made of 100-year-old poplar wood. It cannot be fake."
"Even if there is no problem with his identity, how can he prove that there is no problem with his words?"
Alejandro had no choice but to tell what he said. After Ancru listened, he hurriedly said: "General Emil leads the army of Aries. I have always been the general's adjutant. Now that the general is imprisoned, many soldiers are dissatisfied. My subordinates
There are still five thousand people. If I was really hostile, I would not come here by myself. I would lead people to surround you, and then go to Baron Allewand to ask for credit, but I didn't do that!"
Zhang Mao thought for a while and asked again: "What do you want us to do?"
"Help us and rescue General Emir!"
"The Emir is not the only one who openly defies the current monarch and is treasonous."
"We don't want to fight, let alone die. If you want to treason, just treason. After Wuzong Hesai came to power, he never treated us as human beings. He kept asking us to go out to fight. People kept dying around me, but their wives and children continued to die.
We won’t be able to get pensions, and we may even be sold as slaves. We don’t want to work for the Wuzong River anymore!”
Zhang Mao thought for a long time and then asked: "Who is the largest officer under General Emir?"
"it is me!"
"Aren't you a colonel?"
"Yes, but... people with higher official positions than me have already defected to Baron Allewand."
After Zhang Mao listened, he continued to ask: "So, are you willing to lead people to rebel?"
Ankru nodded vigorously and said: "Yes, it is rebellion, we want to rebel!"
Zhang Mao was originally testing and found that there was no flaw in the other party's words, but there was still a trace of doubt.
"You must understand that once you decide to rebel, there is no way out. You will either achieve success or die without a body!"
Ancru said: "We have no retreat for a long time. After Baron Allewand took control of the military, he has already begun a purge to replace his henchmen. Even if we, the old troops of General Emir, do not rebel, there will be no rebellion."
A way to survive.”
Zhang Mao waved his hand, ordered people to let go of Ancru, and then said: "If you want to rescue General Emir, the few people you have are definitely not enough. Do you have any plan?"
Ankru looked sincere and said: "My plan is to come to you."
Zhang Mao was speechless. I only brought five hundred people. You asked me to attack your main city. What's going on?
"How about this, bring out your troops, and I will take you to Tehran. Whether this battle should be fought or not is entirely up to the Emperor."
"No, General Emir may die at any time!"
Zhang Mao thought to himself, just die, what does it have to do with me?
However, now that people are voluntarily surrendering, if they just watch the emir being hacked and don't rescue them, I'm afraid it won't win the hearts of the people.
When fighting in a foreign land, you don't have the right time or place, the only thing you rely on is the people's hearts.
If people's hearts are broken, it will be difficult to lead the team.
Zhang Mao looked around. It was getting late, and he said: "This matter is not a trivial matter. We should not be rash. Let's rest for a night and discuss a countermeasure."
Ancru quickly agreed: "We have a base here, so it won't be a problem to arrange food and lodging for hundreds of people."
"If my troops live in your military camp, you, the colonel, will be fully convicted of treason."
"The king has given orders for the entire country to assemble troops and prepare to attack Tehran. I will not be noticed for a while."
Zhang Mao was still worried, so he said: "There are many people around you, and it is inevitable that the news will leak out. It is better to find a secret camp nearby and try not to let your people get close."
"Well, I'll arrange for my confidants to take the general to camp."
That night, Zhang Mao and others were taken to a remote school ground. There were ready-made barracks here. Ancru also sent people to deliver 20 sheep and ten large barrels of wine.
Zhang Mao ordered his people to set up three cordons around the camp, and the rest of the people feasted on the food. After traveling for so long, this was the first time they had eaten something hot.
"Report, discover the enemy!"
The detective horse in charge of perimeter security hurriedly reported back and found a troop of unknown soldiers and horses ahead.
Zhang Mao suddenly darkened his face and said angrily: "I knew that bitch was pretending to surrender. Everyone, unite urgently and prepare to fight!"
"General Qi, judging from the opponent's movements, it doesn't look like they are coming to attack our unit!"
"What's the meaning?"
"The opponent's number is not large, only about two hundred, and their actions are very secretive."
"Since it's a sneak attack, it must be very secretive."
"The route is wrong. It seems like we are just passing by. It seems like we are heading north."
"North?"
Zhang Mao pondered for a moment and said: "If we continue to inquire, if the other party's target is not us, don't alert the enemy."
"yes!"
To the east of the camp, a group of people was traveling under the cover of darkness.
"Report, enemy situation found ahead!"
Beilin suddenly became nervous and asked: "How many people are there on the other side?"
"I don't know. I only found the other party's spy horse. The concealment method is very clever."
"How did you find out?"
"I humbly discovered that horse manure is still hot."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It's just horse manure, don't make a fuss about it."
"Bachelor Huibei, I have conducted a detailed survey around the horse dung. The terrain is very suitable for hiding. Moreover, there are traces of human activities. Based on various signs, it is inferred that it should be the opponent's secret sentinel."
"When did Aries become so good at reconnaissance?"
"I have some doubts even though I'm humble. The Aries troops I saw along the way are of very poor quality. This is the first time I've seen such a smart army."
Bei Lin was very confused, but he believed in Jin Yiwei's judgment. He was specialized in intelligence and would not be wrong.
It seems that I still underestimated the opponent's strength, and I will be in trouble this time.
"Pass my order. Everyone needs to rest where they are and stay hidden. You can take people to investigate again."
"yes!"
In the dark night, the two teams of scouts were less than twenty steps apart, staring at each other.
Neither party dares to act rashly because neither party knows the intention of the other party.
Zhang Mao was even more confused when he heard the report. How dare two hundred people attack my camp?
"Report!"
Tan Ma came to report again: "General, you made a mistake, it's one of our own!"
"What?"
Zhang Mao was even more confused and asked: "Can you tell me clearly, who are our own people?"
"Back to General, it's Bachelor Belinbe's team!"
It turned out that two groups of scouts were getting closer and closer to get more detailed information. Because both sides had rifles in their hands, they could recognize them from a distance.
Zhang Mao was even more confused. Why did the Academy of Sciences come?
"Where are the people?"
"Already on the way."
Half an hour later, Bei Lin led the team to Zhang Mao's camp.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhang Mao laughed loudly and said, "Sister Bei, you're welcome and safe!"
"Thank you for your highness, everything went well!"
