The Era of Generals

Chapter 780 - Before Dawn

After everything is in place, the next thing is simple.

Even before Zhang Li left Chen Ze's place, Huang Liang, who had seen through his thoughts, had already arranged everything.

He couldn't help being inactive.

For a long time, he has shown a dignified appearance in front of Chen Ze. To put it bluntly, he is striving for performance. Fortunately, in case Fengqi Province survives this crisis in the future, Chen Ze will In front of Ouyang Lixing, you can say a few good words for him.

But this time he was too anxious.

He thought this was an opportunity to weaken Zhang Li's strength while making contributions.

But what he never expected was that this matter was very important to Chen Ze.

If it was something else, Chen Ze might turn a blind eye to Huang Liang's military strength, but this was the only thing he couldn't do.

This matter is related to the real purpose of Chen Ze's coming to Fengqi Province. He came here to rescue the hostages.

At this moment, he finally had an opportunity, and it was foreseeable that if he missed it, then he might never have the possibility of saving lives.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Chen Ze to let Huang Liang make some small moves.

Huang Liang wanted to weaken Zhang Li's strength, so the selection of troops he suggested would not focus on Chen Ze's mission, but on his small calculations.

But what Chen Ze wants now is to go all out.

That's why Chen Ze, who has always been tolerant of Huang Liang, turned his face this time and ended Huang Liang's delusion with a cold look.

In this way, Huang Liang had figured out Chen Ze's temper, so he didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly followed Chen Ze's instructions, and went to discuss with Tang Feng seriously.

Tang Feng didn't know that there were so many twists and turns in his stomach. He only thought that Huang Liang came to discuss with him just at the order of Chen Ze, so he also told Huang Liang exactly what he was thinking.

Now Huang Liang naturally cooperated with all his strength, and with Chen Ze's previous instructions, he quickly selected 20,000 people out of more than 50,000 people.

This time, of course, he didn't dare to do any more trickery, after all, Chen Ze also called Zhang Li away.

Huang Liang, who had a ghost in his heart, didn't dare to ask Zhang Li what Chen Ze said to him, so he could only follow Chen Ze's request and select the group that was the least likely to betray among the fifty thousand people. , that is, he and Zhang Li's respective cronies were picked out.

This pick made Huang Liang's heart drip with blood.

Among the more than 20,000 people, naturally he sent out more people, and Zhang Li had fewer people in his power.

And these people were originally Huang Liang's hole cards, which he planned to use to seek greater benefits for himself in the future.

Now, they can only hope that Chen Ze's words are true. These people are really just a bait and there will be no danger.

As for Tang Feng, he was very satisfied.

This was an opportunity he asked for, and it was also the first time he led the team as a general. Although he knew he would lose, Tang Feng cherished this opportunity very much.

So seeing Huang Liang's cooperation is extremely high, this is naturally a good thing for Tang Feng.

Then Zhang Li also came back.

What relieved Huang Liang was that Chen Ze seemed to be just as he had promised, and did not tell the other party that he had plotted against Zhang Li.

Because he saw that Zhang Li immediately nodded to himself as soon as he came back, showing respect for him just like before.

If that's the case... it shouldn't be a problem, right?

With luck in mind, Huang Liang cautiously approached Zhang Li to inquire about the news, but the other party only said some specific things that Chen Ze told him to do, and didn't say a word about Huang Liang's careful thoughts.

This finally made Huang Liang feel relieved.

Then he hooked up with Zhang Li again, looking like hello, hello, hello, everyone.

Perhaps because of a guilty conscience, he even treated Zhang Li better than before, making him confused.

It was Huang Liang's choice. Zhang Li looked at it again and had no objection. He also thought that Chen Ze probably said the same thing to Huang Liang.

Then came the rectification of the military capacity.

As the coach, Tang Feng briefly explained the mission.

But of course he couldn't say it clearly, he just said that the scouts found a small army ahead, so he sent them to clean up first.

Hearing what Tang Feng said, and the very prestigious Zhang Li beside him, the bandits had no objection, and were even very excited.

For the bandits, they are not afraid of fighting, but the purpose is different.

The regular army fights with strategic intentions.

The battles that are easy to fight must be fought, and the battles that are not easy to fight must also be fought. Even if you know you are invincible, you can only bite the bullet sometimes.

Bandits are different.

They only fight those who are easy to fight, and only bully those who are easy to bully.

To let them go to war, it must be profitable.

So in Tang Feng's narration, the troops resting by the small river in front were actually a bandit force, and it seemed that they had just robbed a city, and they brought a lot of big boxes with them.

But Tang Feng didn't know what was in those big boxes, everything was just waiting for the bandits to play their own roles.

So, he saw that the eyes of these people were already red.

big box.

what else?

For a while, the crowd was passionate, and many people even thanked Huang Liang for picking them out, so that they could eat this piece of fat.

Of course, if Zhang Li hadn't been present, they might not have believed Tang Feng's words.

That's why Chen Ze had to find a person whom the bandits trusted to be present.

And at the same time.

Just as Chen Ze was making arrangements to attack the river bank, on the other side, General Huang who was in the basement suddenly frowned.

He looked to the left and right, and the hundreds of dead soldiers were still waiting in full force, and did not relax because there was no movement.

"How long has Mo He been gone?"

he asked suddenly.

Someone immediately stepped forward and reported to General Huang, "It's been about an hour since you returned to General."

"An hour?"

General Huang frowned.

He had just escorted back a group of prisoners, and then rushed over overnight without resting.

Therefore, after Mo He left, he also took a nap for a while to recover his mental and physical strength.

But in the half-dream and half-awake state, he always felt that something was wrong.

After thinking about it, Mo He still hasn't come back.

Although General Huang scolded Mo He bloody just now, he still recognized the opponent's talent, otherwise he would not let a descendant be in charge of the peripheral defense.

But Mohe's visit seems to be too long?

When I asked, an hour had passed.

How big is the area where they are stationed outside?

How can it take so much for an hour?
