Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 172
Yuan Shu's army was busy all night, but they only caught three unlucky ghosts, but Yuan Shu's army didn't sleep all night.

After the sky brightened, Yuan Shu sat in Zhang Xun's military camp with sleepy eyes. He looked at the three captured people in front of him and shouted: "Zhang Xun, is this the result of you keeping my army busy all night?"

Zhang Xun was in a cold sweat at this moment, and Yuan Shu was angry, that was no fun.Moreover, I don't know who called Yuan Shu here. My military camp was just to catch spies, so how could Yuan Shu be alarmed? "My lord, my subordinate promised to be infiltrated by spies last night and killed many people. The last general just ordered the drums to gather the army to capture the spies, but he didn't send a signal to attack the enemy."

After listening to Zhang Xun's explanation, Yuan Shu looked at Yang Hong beside him and asked: "Yang Changshi, what is our army's enemy attack signal?"

Yang Hong was speechless when he heard Yuan Shu's question. As a lord, it was hard to say anything if he didn't know the signal of enemy attack from his subordinates.However, it is naturally impossible for Yang Hong to criticize Yuan Shu. "My lord, the signal of the enemy's attack is the wolf smoke."

"Wolf smoke?" Yuan Shu thought about it, and said to Lejiu and Qiao Rui, "You two, did you see Wolf Smoke last night?"

As soon as Lejiu and Qiaorui heard Yuan Shu's question, they knelt down in front of Yuan Shu, and Lejiu replied: "Yesterday, a certain general sent troops and sent someone to inform the lord when he saw the wolf smoke." As soon as Lejiu finished speaking , Qiao Rui also said: "The last general is just like what the general said."

After Yuan Shu heard Lejiu and Qiaorui's words, he yelled at Zhang Xun: "What else do you have to say now? There are only a few spies in your barracks, so you beat the drums to gather the army, and the fire is in a hurry. "

Zhang Xun was wronged now, it's so miserable. "My lord, it wasn't the last general who lit the smoke for emergency, but the spies who set fire to the barracks." Zhang Xun looked at Yuan Shu and cried.If you don't cry at this time, some will cry later.

Yang Hong next to Yuan Shu also knew that Zhang Xun was a general in Yuan Shu's hands, and he had real skills, so naturally Yuan Shu couldn't really punish Zhang Xun.Besides, speaking for Zhang Xun at this time can also make friends with Zhang Xun. "My lord, just now Hong just looked at General Zhang's camp, and there are indeed traces of being burned."

As soon as Yang Hong finished speaking, he looked up at Zhang Xun.At this time, Zhang Xun was moved when he heard Yang Hong speak kind words for him, and looked at Yang Hong with eyes full of gratitude.When Yang Hong saw Zhang Xun's eyes, he was also very satisfied.

After Yuan Shu listened to Yang Hong's words, he thought again, Zhang Xun was really serious about himself, and he probably wouldn't do that kind of behavior that betrayed him or was not good for him. "Forget it, this general, for the sake of General Zhang's loyalty, this time I won't argue with General Zhang."

However, Yuan Shu said that he didn't care about Zhang Xun, but looking at the soldiers outside, Yuan Shu knew that he couldn't attack the city today, and he still felt a little unhappy.Seeing Yuan Shu like this, Yan Xiang could only say: "My lord, yesterday's army failed to attack the city because of the lack of siege equipment. My lord, why don't you order more ladders and chariots, and then go down to Yangdi in one fell swoop in the future."

After listening to Yan Xiang's words, Yuan Shu put on a smile on his face, and said: "Yan Zhu's plan is very good, so I will follow Yan's plan." After speaking, Yuan Shu led the army to the barracks in the east of the city, Along the way, I am more interested in watching the scenery on both sides.

After Yuan Shu left, Zhang Xun sent away the two generals Lejiu and Qiao Rui. In any case, these two generals knew that there was a fire in Zhang Xun's camp and brought people to help. This feeling still needs to be recorded. of.

After sending everyone away, Zhang Xun asked a guard next to him, "How many casualties were there in the riot last night?"

The guard looked at Zhang Xun's inquiry and replied: "General, because of the lack of preparedness of the army, 370 soldiers were secretly killed and 37 injured last night. In addition, half of the camp was burned down last night and needs to be rebuilt."

After listening to the guard's report, Zhang Xun's face was normal at first, but gradually turned black, as if blackened by the fire last night. "I should call the soldiers who were on duty yesterday. There are spies sneaking in, but they don't know."

After the soldier heard Zhang Xun's words, he quickly went out to carry out Zhang Xun's order. He doubted that if he didn't call the soldiers on duty, Zhang Xun's anger would definitely be vented on him. go out.

After the soldier left, only Niu Wa and the three captured spies were left behind Zhang Xun.Seeing that Niu Wa was standing behind Zhang Xun, the three spies kept winking at Niu Wa and asked Niu Wa to dispose of Zhang Xun so that they could be rescued.

How could Niu Wa go to save those three unlucky guys at this time? Isn't this just asking for death?Niuwa is good at deceiving and amusing people, how could he be Zhang Xun's opponent?Therefore, Niu Wa could only turn his head, as if he hadn't seen anything.

Fortunately, Zhang Xun didn't pay attention to the three unlucky guys at this time, otherwise, he would definitely be able to discover the ulterior secret between Niu Wa and these three unlucky guys.

After waiting for two quarters of an hour, the soldier who had gone out earlier finally called over the soldier who was on duty the night before.After all, in a large military camp, there must be no shortage of soldiers on guard duty.Moreover, there were soldiers on guard duty who were killed in the riots at night. Of course, they must be counted.

"General, all the soldiers on night watch were here last night. Also, seventeen more soldiers on night watch were killed last night." The soldier stood in front of all the soldiers and reported to Zhang Xunhui.And behind the soldier, the two soldiers who were deceived by Niu Wa were standing there.

Zhang Xun looked at the soldiers in front of him, and Niu Wa followed behind Zhang Xun. "Last night, did you find anything unusual?"

When the soldiers heard Zhang Xun's question, they said that they found nothing unusual.After asking the two soldiers who were cheated of money by Niuwa, the two soldiers wanted to say that they had discovered something special.But the sharp-eyed soldier named Sanzi saw that standing behind Zhang Xun was the "adult" who took their money. Sanzi quickly kicked his companion next to him and said, "General, last night we There was nothing unusual there either.”

The soldier next to the third son looked at the third son with doubts on his face, but he didn't know why the third son was lying.However, when the soldier looked at Zhang Xun, he also saw the cow boy behind Zhang Xun. He swallowed back what he was about to say, and said instead: "General, last night, the villain also didn't notice Unusual situation."

Although Zhang Xun felt it was very strange, he didn't know what was so strange, so he pointed to the three people kneeling on the ground and asked, "Then, have you seen these three people yesterday?"

All the soldiers looked at the three people carefully and expressed that they had never seen them before. The third son and the others also shook their heads and said that they had not seen them before.At this time, these two people really didn't lie. They really had never met these three people. They were chatting happily at that time, but they didn't notice who Niu Wa had brought in at that time.

Zhang Xun saw that these soldiers did not recognize these three people when they saw them, so he said: "You all go down."

After hearing Zhang Xun's words, those soldiers turned and left, but when the three sons left, they still did not forget to say hello to Niu Wa with their eyes.It just so happened that Zhang Xun saw this scene, but Zhang Xun really didn't think much about it, he just thought that Niu Wa and those two were from the same hometown, and they knew each other before.And in this way, Zhang Xun recognized Niu Wa even more.After all, someone with a track record is more trusted than someone who shows up out of nowhere.
