Chapter 3771 Overt investigation or covert investigation
Zhang Kuang raised the wine bag and put it into his mouth. After taking two large gulps of wine, he turned to look at Nangong Ye with a slightly helpless expression.
"Old man, there is no need for us to do this between old brothers."
Seeing the helpless expression on Zhang Kuang's face, Nangong Ye smiled and waved his hand.
"Hey, Brother Zhang, these are my sincere words, and I have no intention of flattery."
Hearing what Nangong Ye said, Zhang Kuang raised his hand to wipe the wine from his beard and shook his head with a faint smile.
"Come on, we brothers don't know each other well."
Hearing this, Nangong Ye was about to speak when Zhang Kuang suddenly coughed softly a few times. At the same time, he immediately turned to look at Nangong Ye and curled his lips towards the left front.
"Uh-huh, cough, cough, cough, cough."
Nangong Ye saw the old man curling his lips at him, and immediately subconsciously turned his head and looked in the direction of the crazily curled lips.
Then, at a glance, he saw a group of patrolling soldiers walking towards the two of them at the corner of the path ahead on the left.
When the soldiers in the front saw the voices of Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye, they immediately gave each other a fist.
"We meet the two commanders."
When Zhang Kuang and Zhang Kuang saw this, they both waved their hands to the soldiers in front with smiles on their faces.
"No need to be polite, just continue patrolling."
"No need to be polite, just continue patrolling."
"yes."
After a group of soldiers gradually walked away, Nangong Ye regained his appearance and skillfully took off the wine bag from his waist.
Immediately, he pulled out the cork on the wine bag, raised the wine bag and put it towards his mouth.
After Nangong Ye drank several large sips of wine, he glanced at Zhang Guang, who was walking leisurely on his way, with a faint smile.
"Brother Zhang, since you have no opinion on the following series of things.
What do you think about the food issue ahead?"
Zhang Kuang raised his eyes and glanced at the main hall of the palace in front of him, slowed down his pace intentionally or unintentionally, and then glanced at Nangong Ye, who was walking side by side with him, with a strange look.
"Brother Nangong, I know that you will definitely be unable to help but want to discuss this issue with me.
As expected, you still couldn’t hold it back after all!”
Looking at the strange look in his arrogant eyes, Nangong Ye raised the wine bag and took a sip of wine, then took a long breath of wine with a smile.
"call!"
"Haha, hahaha, Brother Zhang, don't you want to discuss this issue with me at all?"
"Of course I do."
Zhang Kuang heard Nangong Ye's question and immediately answered decisively.
When Nangong Ye saw Zhang Kuang answered so decisively, the expression on his face was slightly startled. After he reacted, his eyes raised his eyebrows strangely.
Immediately, the two old foxes turned to look at each other and burst out laughing.
"Hahaha, hahahaha."
"Haha, hahaha, hahaha."
Soon.
The laughter of the two people subsided one after another.
Zhang Kuang raised the wine bag in his hand and drank several large gulps of the wine, then turned to look at Nangong Ye with a somewhat hesitant look.
"Old man, in your opinion, should we send a letter to the spies lurking in the Kipchak State and instruct them to go to Gubus City to investigate the situation of the 300,000-strong army?"
Hearing Zhang Kuang's question, Nangong Ye frowned slightly with hesitation.
"Brother Zhang, are you investigating openly or covertly?"
When Zhang Kuang heard what Nangong Ye said, his expression suddenly changed.
Immediately afterwards, he quickly turned his head and looked around to observe the situation around him. When he was sure that no one was around, he suddenly let out a long sigh of relief.
"Old man, do you need to say this? Of course I checked it out.
Those 300,000 troops are our own brothers. There is no reason to send people to secretly investigate our own brothers.
Moreover, what I just said was to investigate the situation there, not to secretly investigate the situation there.
Since we want to check out the situation there, of course we should go and investigate openly."
When Nangong Ye heard the arrogant reply, he also breathed a long sigh of relief, and the hesitant look on his face gradually returned to normal.
"Brother Zhang, I feel relieved when I hear you say that.
When I heard what you said just now, I subconsciously thought that you wanted to send your spies to secretly investigate the situation of the 300,000-strong army!"
Zhang Kuang took a deep breath, calmed down his nervous mood, and waved his hand to Nangong Ye with a bitter smile.
"Hey, brother Nangong, where are you thinking? I don't dare to have such thoughts."
Seeing the bitter expression on Zhang Kuang's face, Nangong Ye chuckled a few times with a slightly embarrassed expression.
"Brother Zhang, I really can't blame me for thinking about this matter, mainly because we have developed a habit.
In the past few years that we have been in Tianzhu Country and Dashi Country, whenever we send a group of people to investigate certain matters, almost all of them are conducted in secret.
So, after I heard what you said, Brother Zhang, I habitually thought so."
"Brother Nangong, be careful what you say, be careful what you say!"
After Zhang Kuang responded to Nangong Ye's words in a low voice, he turned back and glanced in the direction of the courtyard where Young Master Liu lived, and let out a sigh of relief.
"Old man, when we were at His Majesty's place earlier, you must have figured out that His Majesty had no intention of having an in-depth discussion with us about the 300,000-strong army.
I'm not stupid, and you don't think about it either. Under such circumstances, how could I send someone to secretly investigate this situation?"
Nangong Ye listened to Zhang Kuang's somewhat sighing words and immediately nodded happily.
"Hehe, hehehe.
I understand, I understand, I misunderstood, I misunderstood.”
Seeing that Nangong Ye could still laugh, Zhang Kuang rolled his eyes pretending to be unhappy.
"Brother Nangong, Brother Nangong, thank you for being able to laugh.
Those words you just said scared me so much!"
As soon as the arrogant and angry words fell, he directly raised the wine bag and put it in his mouth, and drank several large sips of the wine.
"call."
After Zhang Kuang took out a breath of wine, he glanced at Nangong Ye with a frown.
"Old man, stop saying these useless words.
Let's get back to business and continue the topic we just talked about.
Old man, I still have the same question as before. In your opinion, should we send someone to investigate the situation of the 300,000 troops in the Kipchak State?"
