The Era of Generals

Chapter 785 Zhang Li's Thoughts

"General Tang, it seems to be almost the same?"

On Tang Feng's side, Zhang Li, who rode side by side with him at the front of the team, was observing the movement around him.

Before leaving, Chen Ze naturally informed Zhang Li that there was an army belonging to the Bailie Empire waiting for them, so that Zhang Li could be mentally prepared.

And Zhang Li is indeed different from Huang Liang's ghostly mind, but an extremely honest person.

Since he took over this task, he no longer looked forward and backward, but tried his best to assist Tang Feng.

The brothers under his command were comforting him, but they rushed forward to explore the way. He did not covet life and fear death, but walked with Tang Feng.

I silently calculated the position in my heart.

Although with Zhang Li's own ability, he still couldn't find the Bai Lie scout who was hiding in the dark and watching them, but based on his experience, he also thought that his side should have approached the other party's detection range, so he couldn't help but look a little serious.

On the other hand, Tang Feng was indifferent.

But in fact, as early as half a quarter of an hour ago, he had already obtained the information that there were scouts watching secretly.

He could actually find out by himself, but now there is a stronger person acting as a scout for him.

His father, Tang Tianxing.

Don't worry about his son committing danger alone, and going to perform missions with a bunch of bandits, Tang Tianxing will follow whatever he says.

Tang Feng was actually a little reluctant.

It's not that there is still an unresolved relationship between him and Tang Tianxing, it's just that he doesn't want to be under the protection of his father in everything, and wants to exercise his abilities as much as possible alone.

But even Chen Ze agreed to Tang Tianxing's request.

Tang Feng thought about it, and it would be safer to have Tang Tianxing around, so he didn't refuse.

Facts have proved that no matter which commander gets the help of a master like Tang Tianxing, it will be a very happy thing.

Tang Tianxing walked around the perimeter of the team, and he saw the same subordinates who were hiding, even the same as himself, who went back and forth twice, but he saw them all.

This information was told to Tang Feng through the Tang family's unique technique of secret voice transmission, without disturbing any of the scouts in the dark.

So when Zhang Li was guessing that his side might have been discovered by the other party, in fact, there was new information sent back from Tang Tianxing.

The message this time is that the deployment on the river bank has been made, and the trap has also been set up, just waiting for them to drill in.

"Brother Zhang, we... need to get ready."

Zhang Li never expected that what he said with a guess would be a reminder from Tang Feng's face that didn't change his face.

"be prepared?"

He was stunned for a moment, his expression changed drastically, he looked around nervously, but he couldn't see any danger, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "General Tang is really good at telling jokes, it's probably too early for us now, right?"

There are quite a few criticisms in my heart.

In fact, from Zhang Li's point of view, Chen Ze's appointment of Tang Feng as the coach is really too much.

Couldn't Zhang Li be competent?

It wasn't that he was greedy for merit, but since he had agreed to Chen Ze, Zhang Li naturally wanted to do his best.

And he believed that, based on his many years of experience in the battlefield, it was nothing more than a false surrender, and he still had no problem.

Can't win, can't you lose?

Who wouldn't surrender?

Asking Tang Feng to be the coach, on the contrary, made Zhang Li think that Chen Ze seemed to be impartial, but in fact he still had selfishness in his heart.

What he said at the beginning would speak for himself in front of General Ouyang, try to erase the mistakes of the year, and look frank.

But Chen Ze didn't necessarily trust him, but he had the same problem as other commanders.

That is, nepotism.

After having this idea in his heart, Zhang Li didn't have too many thoughts, he could only smile wryly in his heart.

Who told him bad luck?

Now it's good to live under the fence of others, what others say.

Therefore, knowing that Tang Feng is just a brat and has no military rank, out of respect for the other party's commander status, he still yelled at General Tang one by one.

However, General Tang looked very unreliable.

Get ready now, doesn't that make it clear that people will notice that their behavior is different?

This seems to be detrimental to Mr. Chen's plan, right?

But what Zhang Li didn't know was that Chen Ze didn't mean to distrust him.

Compared to Huang Liang, Chen Ze even hoped that Zhang Licai was the most powerful one in this bandit team.

The reason why Tang Feng was allowed to be the coach after having Zhang Li was actually exactly what Zhang Li thought he was sure of.

You can't win, but you can't lose?

Even if you lose, you have to look like you've lost.

On this point, Tang Feng, who had no combat experience, had an advantage.

After all, Zhang Li has been a general for so many years. In his military career, it is inevitable that he will not be given orders to allow defeat and not to win because of strategic needs.

So Zhang Li is experienced.

And this experience is not applicable in the bandit den.

When the bandits go out to rob, they will only go if they can beat them well. If they can't beat them, who will rush to die?

However, if once he found that the situation was wrong, based on his own experience, Zhang Li would issue a strategy of winning but not winning, which would be too heavy a trace.

Instead, it was Tang Feng.

Once stepping into the opponent's trap, based on Tang Feng's inexperienced judgment, he must be full of mistakes and omissions, or even make frequent foolish moves.

But in this way, in the eyes of the other party, it will be better, and it will be less likely for the other party to see the flaws, and really think that this army is just a bandit force.

After all, Chen Ze's ultimate goal is not to run in front of Huang Ren to show weakness, but to make the other party unsuspecting and take the initiative to bring the 20,000 people he sent back to the base camp, and then he waits for the opportunity to rely on this 20,000 people acted internally and combined internally and externally to rescue the hostages.

You must know that although Tang Tianxing and his son captured Mo He back in the previous investigation, they also left a lot of traces on Huang Ren. The other party is being cautious at the moment, and if he sees a flaw, he probably won't go there. In the base camp.

This is what Chen Ze is unwilling to do.

So he asked Zhang Li to follow, only to stabilize the morale of the 20,000 soldiers, so that Tang Feng would not be able to command at a critical moment.

As for the others, naturally let Tang Feng do his best.

Play well or badly.

After all, here in Tang Feng, he is a layman when it comes to marching and fighting, and it is even more impossible for him to think about the strategy of winning but not winning.

This will not make Huang Ren feel suspicious.

This is what Chen Ze had thought about for a long time.

It's just that he hasn't gotten to know Zhang Li well enough to confide in him, and according to his observations, an upright person like Zhang Li, even if he feels dissatisfied in his heart, will first carry out the tasks assigned to him in a down-to-earth manner before speaking. .
