The beef is crispy on the outside, tender on the outside, golden and crispy on the inside.
They couldn't believe that the two hundred Wancheng elites led by Wang Biao were killed in full in Guaizigou.
You must know that according to their original strategy, this army will definitely face the He clan and King Hongnong's army, so each of them is a carefully selected soldier in the army.
In particular, Army Sima Wang Biao was a veteran with eight years of military experience. He was the most powerful general under Jiang Duwei. He killed generals, captured flags, and ascended first. He had made numerous military exploits.
Never thought about it.
Even he was folded in Guaizigou.
Zhang Zi was horrified in his heart. He really couldn't imagine what kind of cruel battle they had experienced in Guaizigou. Otherwise, how could not one of these two hundred elites be left alive and all die in battle?
Zhang Zi lacked combat experience and could not imagine the battle.
but......
Niu Fu is a warrior who has experienced hundreds of battles.
Although he looked down upon the Wancheng defenders, he could infer from the opponent's combat posture that these troops were no ordinary soldiers, but an elite force with combat experience.
Niu Fu asked himself, even if he took action himself, using infantry against infantry, if he wanted to completely destroy such an elite group in a short time, he would need twice or even three times more troops.
But......
How could the He family have so many people?
Even if there is, they are just a group of untrained rabble!
It would be extremely difficult for a mob like this to annihilate an elite force of two hundred people.
In fact, in Niu Fu's eyes, such a record is simply impossible!
"Damn it!"
Niu Fu snarled his steel teeth and cursed secretly: "What happened in the Guaizi ditch? None of the two hundred soldiers survived!"
Zhang Zi below slowly shook his head: "Zhang also doesn't understand. It only takes two hours at best to return here from Xiliang Xiaoqi. If we subtract the time spent on the road and the time from the mountain pass to Guaizigou."
Phew~~~
Niu Fu sighed and frowned: "In other words, these guys defeated two hundred Wancheng elites in less than an hour, and they were able to escape smoothly?"
"That's right!"
Zhang Zi nodded, with a look of disbelief on his face: "But how did they do it? Could it be that there was an ambush in Guaizigou in advance?"
Niu Fu took a deep breath: "Maybe this is the only explanation."
Zhang Zi frowned: "But, since they have extra troops and horses to ambush, why do they only have so few people in the city? Is such a distribution of troops somewhat unreasonable?"
"this......"
Niu Fu shook his head, unsure.
But as Zhang Zi said, the He family's military strength was insufficient to begin with. Even if there were indeed some, they should focus on rescuing people instead of ambushing them.
This kind of distribution of troops is completely inconsistent with common sense.
unless......
It was someone else who was ambushing me in Guaizigou.
Only when the two have the same goals can they complement each other.
Apart from He Xian, the head of the He family, the only one who is still concerned about the safety of the He family is Hongnong King Liu Bian.
Niu Fu felt a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart.
If it was really King Hongnong, why would he set up an ambush in Guaizi Valley?
Is it possible...
He found He Xian in advance, and the two of them planned to save people together?
But if this is the case, then the troops should focus on rescuing people, not ambushing.
Moreover, when He Xian discovered Wang Biao in the city, he should have seen through him long ago instead of fighting out of Wancheng with him.
But if he didn't discover He Xian, how could he accurately set up an ambush in Guaizi Valley?
How did he know that He's family would be rescued?
You must know that this plan was a temporary modification. Only you, Zhang Zi, and the missing Li Ru knew about it, and the others were completely unaware of it.
Huh?
Thinking of this, Niu Fu's eyes lit up.
A figure keeps popping up in my mind, and I can't get rid of it for a long time.
"Li Ru?"
Hiss~~~
Niu Fu couldn't help but gasp, his scalp suddenly numbed, and his spine felt chilly.
The three people who knew about the temporary modification of the plan were all together, except Li Ru.
Moreover, the other party still left without saying goodbye, without even leaving a word.
Ushifu thought carefully.
This morning, Li Ru had a stomachache and did not meet.
Last night we had a gathering in the military camp, the lights were dim and we couldn't see clearly either.
The only time we met at Ximen, I was blinded by the afterglow of the setting sun.
And when he was reluctantly sure that the other party was Li Ru and was about to return to the military camp, this boy actually called the carriage in advance.
He rode back to the military camp on horseback, and this guy took a carriage back to the military camp, but they still didn't meet each other on the way.
This feeling...
It was as if he was deliberately avoiding himself.
Is it possible that this Li Ru is fake and someone else pretended to be him?
Gulu~~
Niu Fu's throat rolled and he swallowed hard, feeling even more uneasy in his heart.
You know, I had doubts about Li Ru's identity at first.
However, after Ximen confirmed that it was Li Ru, he completely dispelled this doubt.
"Damn it!"
Niu Fu's anger surged into his throat.
He was able to stand up, and his piercing eyes fell on Zhang Zi: "You! Continue to send people to search for the He family members, and the search area will be expanded to Funiu Mountain until they are found."
"Here!"
Zhang Zi responded, and before Niu Fu left, he hurriedly added: "But General, the Funiu Mountains are too big, and Zhang's limited troops may not be enough."
“Don’t worry~~”
Niu Fu ignored the long case and walked straight to the palace: "I will ask Lieutenant Li to send out troops to search. We both work together. Even if Funiu Mountain is turned upside down, I must find the He family."
Zhang Zi was helpless: "This... okay."
Niu Fu: "General, I have something to do, so I'll take my leave for now."
Zhang Zi watched Niu Fu leave: "Here."
When Ushisuke disappeared from sight.
Zhang Zifang straightened up, looked at the way Niu Fu disappeared, and snorted disdainfully: "Xiliang traitor, you are as stupid as a pig, and you only suspect Li Ru now."
Although Zhang Zi had never suspected Li Ru before, when he learned that Li Ru had left without saying goodbye and fled, he immediately connected today's events with Li Ru.
Sure enough!
Then, bad news came back from outside the city.
Although Zhang Zi suspected Li Ru, there was no evidence after all. In addition, the other party was a close confidant of Dong Zhuo and Niu Fu's future son-in-law. The two parties had a close relationship. Forcibly questioning Li Ru would only be counterproductive and cause unnecessary trouble.
therefore.
For Zhang Zi, he could only guide Niu Fu's thoughts through words.
But who would have thought that even if Zhang Zi worked hard to guide him, it would take Niu Fu so long to suspect Li Ru.
This is enough to prove that the other party is a real idiot!
Phew~~~
Zhang Zi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't care at all about the life and death of the He family.
He didn't even care about King Hongnong's life or death.
Of course, the premise is not to have anything to do with yourself and put yourself in a dilemma.
"Here comes someone."
"exist."
"Call Captain Jiang to send all his troops to look for the He clan members. Once there is any news, it must be reported in time without any mistakes."
"Here."
It’s the best you can find, but it doesn’t matter if you can’t find it.
Anyway...
We cooperated fully.
Zhang Zi put his hands behind his back and walked back to the inner courtyard with leisurely steps.
