In the eyes of a group of government officials full of meaning.
Xie Yunsong walked out of the prison.
Walk towards the military camp.
The matter of Zhang Shuo's arrest was clear, but the matter of hundreds of men and horses being captured alive made Xie Yunsong even more surprised.
If Zhang Shuo was alone, he could still be captured alive.
But hundreds of people were captured and brought back without being beaten.
Even if you catch hundreds of pigs, you still have to be humped by the pigs twice, right?
"Sir...sir."
"Why do you still farm when you are a soldier in Sanhe County?"
"I'm so exhausted!"
As soon as Xie Yunsong arrived in the field, a surrendered soldier from Yunzhong County asked Xie Yunsong.
"Stop talking so much nonsense."
"Do whatever you are told!"
"Let me ask you, why were you arrested without even being beaten?"
"Who asked you to surrender?!"
Xie Yunsong immediately asked the man.
"well……"
"Sir, you don't know something. We didn't surrender on our own initiative. To be precise, we should have been surrendered..."
The soldier sighed and told Xie Yunsong exactly what happened to them.
"It's so weird."
"How did they poison us?"
"Are there ghosts and gods assisting?"
Until now, those soldiers still can't figure it out.
And Xie Yunsong knew that the team had kidnapped Zhang Shuo and had already entered the camp, so it would not be difficult to administer some medicine.
But what really scares Xie Yunsong is...
Thank you for not killing me this time. If poison had been used, it would have been all over!
Xie Yunsong shook his head and walked away.
Unexpectedly.
This battle can still be fought like this.
Could this be the trick that a man like Magistrate Huang who had never fought in a war came up with?
It actually works.
But this is a sneaky trick after all. It's okay to deal with a few hundred people, but it's completely useless if there are thousands of people on the opposite side.
Not to mention that the camp was heavily guarded and it was impossible to sneak into it.
Even if you can get in.
It's definitely not that simple to bring people out.
This time it was just good luck, just a coincidence!
right!
It's a coincidence!
Xie Yunsong thought as he walked back towards the county government office.
…
Inside Yunzhong County at this time.
Li Mu, the magistrate of Yunzhong County, was wandering anxiously in the hall.
"It shouldn't be!"
"How long has this been?"
"No matter what, there must be news sent back!"
Li Mu was very confused.
"Yes, sir, it stands to reason that Sanhe County is easy to fight. Even if they collude with Xie Yunsong, they still don't have enough strength."
The person next to him also frowned and said.
"Song Mingli, didn't you say before that many people were recruited in Sanhe County?"
Li Mu asked Song Mingli.
"Yes, sir, but that was before. After the big battle with the rebels, almost no one was dead!"
"I even sent someone to inquire about it."
"Now only those who guard the city are left."
Song Mingli said slowly.
"That's really weird."
"Even if they can't win, there will be news coming back. I can't figure it out."
Li Mu frowned and said.
"Sir, tell me... could it be that Zhang Shuo, along with those five hundred men, took refuge with Xie Yunsong?"
"In this way, this situation can be explained."
Another person sitting on the side spoke.
"Won't!"
"Zhang Shuo was very dissatisfied with Xie Yunsong before, and I promoted him single-handedly. I will definitely not seek refuge with Xie Yunsong!"
"I have already considered this before, so I asked Zhang Shuo to lead people there!"
"so!"
"Song Mingli, please send another team to Sanhe County to find out the news."
"Qian Laowu, please go down immediately and prepare the military camp. If there are changes, we will respond at any time!"
Li Mu said to the two of them.
"yes!"
"Your Majesty, Shengming!"
"We'll make arrangements immediately!"
The two said and walked out.
Li Mu was still sitting there with a frown on his face.
In this matter, no matter what the outcome of the investigation is, something must have changed.
Li Mu felt very depressed.
Ever since the governor Zhu Yue sent people to find him three years ago, he has been waiting for this day.
In the past three years.
Zhu Yue didn't ask him to do anything, but he gave himself one hundred taels of gold every year for nothing.
The more money there was, the more panic Zhu Yue felt.
I'm afraid Zhu Yue will let him do something big.
But I didn't expect it.
He just allowed himself to express his support, and even made himself the magistrate of Yunzhong County.
This is something Li Mu never dared to think about before.
This time.
Finally got a chance to repay the governor.
Li Mu should go all out.
Unexpectedly, the start of the attack was unfavorable. Zhang Shuo, a powerful man who had a grudge against Xie Yunsong, had been sent out, but something unexpected happened.
Li Mu doesn't take any chances at all.
Just a little worried.
Zhang Shuo's five hundred troops are not a small force.
Sanhe County can be eaten in one bite?
No one even escaped?
Even if something really happened, Zhang Shuo would definitely ask someone to break out of the siege and report to him.
If it were Zhang Shuo and the others, they wouldn't even have a chance to escape.
Then the situation in Sanhe County needs to be re-examined.
Since last time.
After the troops of Sanhe County fought fiercely with the rebel army, the entire Sanhe County declined.
The rebel army had tens of thousands of troops!
Even if they recruited thousands of people in Sanhe County, set fire to the mountains, and chased and intercepted them, it is absolutely impossible to say that there were no casualties!
Could it be that in just a few short months, Sanhe County can recover its strength?
Where does money and food come from?
Where do people come from?
Li Mu couldn't figure it out.
In this case, we can no longer be rash and radical.
It is better to be more prudent. Five hundred men and horses were lost all at once. Even if we have 5,000 men and horses in Yunzhong County, we can't help but go through such troubles.
"Here comes someone!"
Li Mu thought for a while and called in a few soldiers.
"You guys, pretend to be ordinary businessmen and go to the county seat of Sanhe County."
"First, find out clearly who the current magistrate of Sanhe County is."
"I always feel that this master register is not very simple."
"Second, take a look at the military situation in the county government, the specific number of people, and the state of preparation."
"Not only the troops inside the county government, but also pay attention to whether there are any ambush outside the city!"
"Third, if there is any news or movement in the county government recently, ask more about it. Pay attention to your identity and don't expose it. Even if you discover Xie Yunsong's whereabouts, it has nothing to do with you!"
"I need to know the real situation in Sanhe County now!"
