Half an hour later, at the military camp on the left side of the underworld north of Youlin, Wei Qing suddenly received information from Dai Zong, the Taibao of Shenxing. After reading it, his face suddenly changed.
"Qubing? What on earth is going on?"
Wei Qing angrily pressed the photo in his hand on the table and stared at Dai Zong.
"How did Qu Bing become like this? Where is he? Is he dead or alive now?"
"General, please calm down. This is a photo I took accidentally after breaking into the enemy camp."
Dai Zong noticed that Wei Qing's eyes were about to burst into flames at this moment, so he quickly explained: "I know that the general and General Huo's uncle and nephew have a deep love, so after learning the news that General Huo was captured, I immediately rushed over to inform you.
General."
"General, General Huo is imprisoned in the Black Flag Army Camp. He is already covered with wounds and is in danger. General, please send troops to help as soon as possible."
"What, the Black Flag Army detained Qu Bing?"
When Wei Qing heard that it was the Black Flag Army that was behind the attack, he immediately fell into a dilemma.
In sending troops this time, King Qin Guang wanted them to support the Black Flag Army from both wings, not to become their enemy.
If he rashly sends troops to rescue Huo Qubing now, it will most likely cause friction between the two armies. This is a crime he cannot afford.
"Dean Dai, don't the Black Flag Army know Qu Bing's identity? Aren't they afraid of being liquidated in the future?" Wei Qing asked.
Dai Zong shook his head: "From the information I inquired about, General Huo never mentioned it, so that the Black Flag Army still doesn't know his identity."
"Hey, this stubborn donkey!"
Wei Qing immediately realized that this matter was just a misunderstanding.
He knew in his heart that Huo Qubing must have become stubborn and refused to reveal his identity, so he was imprisoned.
"General, the current plan is to send someone to the Black Flag Army immediately to explain the situation, otherwise General Huo may have to suffer inhuman torture." Dai Zong advised.
"What Dean Dai said is absolutely true. I will compile a copy of the book right now and ask you to explain the situation."
"General, I think this is inappropriate. General Huo and I have never had any contact. I'm afraid he won't believe me."
"This...what should we do?"
Wei Qing hesitated and said: "I am now ordered to lead the army. If I leave my post without authorization, I am afraid I will be criticized by others."
"General, you are worrying too much. Let me see, we are still in alliance with the Black Flag Army. Even if they know that you are the commander-in-chief of the army, they will never do anything to you. If they detain you, then Commander Li will not be able to send out a pincer attack."
them?"
"That's what I said, but if I leave the camp without permission, Li Shuai's side..."
"It doesn't matter, General, we can leave as soon as possible. As long as we don't show our faces in front of others, I believe no one will know."
Seeing that Wei Qing was still hesitating, Dai Zong picked up Huo Qubing's photo and continued to persuade him: "General, time waits for no one. General Huo is eagerly waiting for you to rescue him."
"this..."
Wei Qing hesitated for a long time, and finally agreed to Dai Zong's suggestion: "You can go, but you can't let anyone know about this."
"Don't worry, General, I will definitely keep this matter secret." Dai Zong promised with clasped fists.
...
It was approaching midnight, and the Zuojun camp was quiet. Except for some sentries on duty, there were very few soldiers walking around.
Dai Zong and Wei Qing each rode a fast horse and quietly slipped out of the rear camp. After a period of traveling, they finally arrived at the Black Flag Army camp stationed on the plain.
"Go quickly and report that General Wei Qing of the Yin Division has something important to discuss with the captain."
"yes!"
Upon hearing Dai Zong's words, the sentry guarding the watchtower immediately went back to report.
Wei Qing stood in front of the gate of Dazhai and looked carefully: "The battle flags are clear, the military appearance is neat, the garrisons on the left and right are at angles to each other, there are a number of open and hidden sentries in the front and back, and the war preparations and military resources are arranged in an orderly manner. It can be seen that it is the work of the family."
.”
Having said this, Wei Qing suddenly turned around and looked at Dai Zong with a smile: "Dean Dai, I wonder whose handiwork this is?"
"Ah...this..."
Dai Zong smiled awkwardly and waved his hands: "I'm ashamed to say that, I, I haven't found out yet!"
"Really? Is it because I haven't found out yet or I don't dare to tell?" Wei Qing said with a slight smile.
Dai Zong was stunned for a moment, then glanced aside subconsciously: "I don't know what you are talking about, General."
"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. In fact, from the moment you appeared in my handsome tent, I knew that you had rebelled and surrendered to the enemy."
"What!!!"
Dai Zong looked at Wei Qing in disbelief and said in surprise: "Then, why do you still come with me?"
Wei Qing smiled: "Since the other party deliberately tricked me into coming here, what's the harm in me coming over to take a look? I, Wei Qing, am just a deputy in the army, so what will happen if I am detained?"
"What's more, I also really want to know what kind of person this famous Captain Jack is."
"Hahaha... As expected of the famous Wei Qing, you really noticed it!"
"uncle!"
At this moment, Cao Ning, who received the news, also came out!
Huo Qubing, who was next to him, saw Wei Qing coming and was even more excited to greet him.
"Qubing, are you okay?"
Wei Qing was shocked when he saw Huo Qubing's high energy. He looked completely different from the one in the photo.
Huo Qubing patted his chest and said proudly: "Uncle, who am I, Huo Qubing? I would rather die standing than live on my knees. As for the appearance in the photo, it's just the makeup that Brother Ning put on me to deceive me."
Uncle is just here."
"Hey, uncle, you know, Brother Ning told me that you would definitely be able to spot the flaws, but I still didn't believe it. It wasn't until you poked Dean Dai that I realized how smart you were."
In fact, Cao Ning asked Huo Qubing to pretend to be tortured just to make Wei Qing anxious.
As long as Wei Qing knew that Huo Qubing was dying, he would definitely come over even if he knew it was a trap.
"Why do these words sound so harsh to my ears?"
"Eh, no, why, you knew from the very beginning that I would see the flaw, and you also knew that I would definitely come?"
Wei Qing opened his eyes wide and took a deep breath.
I thought I had seen deeply enough, but I didn't expect that I was still being plotted against.
"Hahaha... Don't mind, General Wei. I came here to talk to you about joining and cooperating. Those were just some small tricks." Cao Ning said with a smile.
"Who is this?"
After exchanging pleasantries with Huo Qubing, Wei Qing noticed Cao Ning in front of him.
Judging from where he stood, the tone of his voice, and his temperament, it was obvious that he was definitely a leader.
"Oh, let me introduce myself. My surname is Cao Mingning. Of course, you can also call me the mighty, handsome and awesome Captain Jack." Cao Ning introduced.
