Chapter 238 The trap of killing two birds with one stone

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, you won't die tonight." Zhao Zhiguo said to Lu Zheng.

"Then go ahead and pretend I don't exist."

Zhao Zhiguo looked at Qian Kangbo: "You'd better tell me something I want to know."

"Zhao Ziming's whereabouts are indeed unknown, but it is not because of Lu Ziming."

"Who is that because of?" Zhao Zhiguo asked.

"Commander Zhang, on the evening of the third day after the forward defense line was breached, Zhao Ziming left Pingcheng with the new regiment. According to what I learned, this seems to be the order of Commander Zhang."

"Where?"

"I don't know about this. Commander Zhang was already prepared for the fall of Pingcheng. When the defense line was breached, he issued the order to fight in Pingcheng to the last soldier. Three days later, I discovered

The new regiment disappeared, so

Because there were deserters, I reported the matter to Commander Zhang. Commander Zhang didn't say anything. At that time, I knew that Commander Zhang must have given orders to the new regiment. As for where they went, I'm afraid it was only Commander Zhang and you.

Brother knows."

Qian Kangbo told Zhao Zhiguo everything he knew.

Zhao Zhiguo thought about it carefully, and then asked: "After the battle, did Commander Zhang send communications troops to contact my brother?"

"Yes, I sent out soldiers several times, but to no avail. Then I waited for the order to reorganize the troops."

Zhao Zhiguo secretly calculated the time and found that Zhao Ziming left with the new regiment only three days after they were surrounded.

In other words, Zhao Ziming definitely did not bring his troops to the front line to join Zhao Zhiguo.

After the battle was over, it had been more than ten days since Zhao Ziming left Pingcheng with his new regiment. Even if Commander Zhang sent people to look for Zhao Ziming, there would be no results in a short time.

Zhao Zhiguo lowered his head with some disappointment. It seemed that the news about Zhao Ziming was interrupted here. In this vast land, in an era of war, how to find the whereabouts of Zhao Ziming?

"I will definitely do what I promised you, and thank you for arranging soldiers to take care of me."

"That's what I should do. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Qian Kangbo also warmed up.

Zhao Zhiguo did not answer him. Qian Kangbo stood up and left, telling the soldiers standing guard at the door not to lock the cell door.

Seeing Zhao Zhiguo's disappointed look, Lu Zheng took the initiative to come up to him and asked tentatively: "Is your brother gone?"

Zhao Zhiguo frowned when he heard Lu Zheng's words: "If you can't speak, then don't speak. That's missing, not gone!"

"Don't they mean the same thing?" Lu Zheng couldn't think of any difference between them.

"Missing means that it can't be found, and missing means that it is dead."

"That's not a big problem. He must still be alive. And I just heard him say that your brother is accompanied by a regiment of soldiers. What are you afraid of?"

However, this is exactly what Zhao Zhiguo is worried about. Today, there is no unanimous statement to the outside world, and there are constant frictions between warlords. Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimps often happen during warlord annexation.

Zhao Ziming led a new regiment that didn't have much combat effectiveness in the first place, and now that there were no logistical supplies, they were just stragglers. This regiment could not even achieve the combat effectiveness of a puppet army.

"With your IQ, you won't understand even if I tell you." Zhao Zhiguo had no intention of explaining, but when he thought about Zhao Ziming, he felt more and more uneasy.

Seeing that the cell door was open, Zhao Zhiguo had the urge to go out directly, but then he thought about it and realized something was wrong.

"Why did Qian Kangbo leave the cell door open? Could this be a trap?" A strange idea appeared in Zhao Zhiguo's mind, which shocked him into a cold sweat.

If all this was deliberately arranged by Qian Kangbo, Zhao Zhiguo would first be informed of the news about Zhao Ziming, get angry because of Zhao Ziming, lose his mind, and then rush out of the cell.

The moment Zhao Zhiguo broke out of the cell, the soldiers outside could have shot Zhao Zhiguo directly because Zhao Zhiguo escaped from prison.

Looking at the dark cell door, Zhao Zhiguo felt a little frightened. The open door looked more and more like a trap.

After Qian Kangbo left the cell, he did not really leave the prison. He kept waiting outside, hoping... and thinking about the result he wanted.

If he was shot and killed on the charge of escaping from prison, then Qian Kangbo would really not be blamed. The most important thing is that if Zhao Zhiguo dies, no one will know that the news was revealed by him, and

He could also solve a future problem for Lu Ziming through Zhao Zhiguo's death, making Lu Ziming trust him even more.

To put it bluntly, even if the plan was discovered by Zhao Zhiguo, he could still say that he only had good intentions.

Killing two birds with one stone, Qian Kangbo made a good calculation, so he looked forward to a little movement from the cell.

But the lights in the cell flickered on and off, and it was quieter than usual. More than an hour later, there was no movement that Qian Kangbo expected.

"My plan should be perfect!" Qian Kangbo has never doubted his IQ. He believes that his IQ is higher than Zhao Zhiguo.

Although nothing happened as he expected, Qian Kangbo only thought that Zhao Zhiguo was far from being desperate about Zhao Ziming, and did not realize that Zhao Zhiguo had already seen through his purpose.

"Hey~ No one can match my damn IQ. It's just that they can't keep up with my plan."

Qian Kangbo left the prison without saying a word. Although he did not achieve the result he wanted most, at least he still had Zhao Zhiguo's oath with military honor.

When Zhao Zhiguo saw the trap Qian Kangbo left for him, he just smiled contemptuously: "It's such a low-level trap. Just because I didn't tell it doesn't mean that others won't tell it."

Zhao Zhiguo glanced at Lu Zheng.

The reason why Qian Kangbo did not avoid Lu Zheng and talk to Zhao Zhiguo was because he had already investigated Lu Zheng before. After all, Zhao Zhiguo and Lu Zheng were imprisoned together, so he naturally wanted to investigate what Lu Zheng had committed.

After his understanding, it was impossible for Lu Zheng to walk out of prison alive for what he had committed, so Qian Kangbo didn't care what Lu Zheng heard him talking to Zhao Zhiguo.

"After you get out, do me a favor!" Zhao Zhiguo said to Lu Zheng.

"Brother, you can tell me that as long as I can help, it won't be in vain for us to live together for so many days." Lu Zheng promised, patting his chest.

"Can you write?" Zhao Zhiguo.

"I know a little bit, but not all!"

"Just write one sentence, someone around you leaked the news about Zhao Zhiguo, and then draw a silver dollar, will this work?"

"This is easy!"

"When you go out and write it, then secretly send it to our division headquarters. Be sure to write it personally from the division commander."
