At that time, in Guanghan County, the army was in charge of quelling the rebellion.
Two pieces of jade, a few banknotes, and a small booklet.
When these things were placed in front of Han Zhao, the rest of the people in the tent were still discussing intensely what happened last night.
The sudden appearance of Zhenshan Camp, Wei Changtian who blocked the road alone, the mysterious master who killed three thousand soldiers with one sword, the dead Liu Guang...
The whole thing is full of weirdness.
Why was there no report to Han Zhao about Zhenshan Camp’s movements during the day yesterday?
How did Wei Changtian know that Zhenshan Camp would intercept the Shu army who wanted to break out of the encirclement, and accurately blocked the latter's path?
When did this Young Master of the Wei family break through to the third level?
Whose hand was that shocking sword?
Even Han Zhao didn't know anything about such a problem, let alone the other generals.
This situation naturally had to be reported to Ning Yongnian, and the latter immediately sent back the Holy Order——
The army is temporarily stationed in Guanghan, so don't rush in.
This is why Han Zhao did not immediately send troops to pursue the Shu army as originally planned.
Only six days after the war began, the development of the war began to deviate from expectations.
But Han Zhao doesn't care about this at all now.
Because although the Shu army has successfully broken through the encirclement, Wei Changtian...
"..."
Looking at the booklet in front of him, Han Zhao remained calm on the surface, but his body was slightly tense.
Not only did he own this pamphlet, but so did most of the leading members of the boat association.
Therefore, if this thing falls into Ning Yongnian's hands without knowing it... then the entire Tongzhou Association will most likely be uprooted.
Fortunately, it was "intercepted" by me now.
"cough!"
Next to him, a man in dark gold official uniform suddenly coughed, interrupting Han Zhao's thoughts.
This man's name is You Wenzong, he is the warlord of the Shuzhou battle, and his status in the army is second only to Han Zhao.
More importantly, he is from Ning Yongnian.
"General Han, these items don't look simple."
Squinting his eyes, You Wenzong picked up the pamphlet and flipped through it: "It should be a communication tool that the enemy rarely left behind."
"Well, what Mr. You said is absolutely true."
Nodding with a calm expression, Han Zhao followed his words and said: "To be able to leave such an important object behind shows how panicked the rebels were when they broke out yesterday."
"Panic..."
Looking at Han Zhao, You Wenzong smiled meaningfully: "But didn't the rebels still break through?"
"well......"
Han Zhao sighed lightly, his tone seemed a little helpless: "One sword kills three thousand soldiers, who could have expected such a thing."
"No, General Han seems to have forgotten something."
You Wenzong casually flipped through the pamphlet and corrected him softly: "Zhenshan Camp was supposed to cut off the enemy's food and fodder a hundred miles away, so its sudden appearance near Guanghan City was an accident."
"If it weren't for Zhenshan Camp, even if there wasn't that master among the rebels, they would have been able to break through."
"General Han, are you right?"
"..."
The atmosphere between the two suddenly became tense, because the suspicion in You Wenzong's words was already obvious.
No one is a fool, let alone a civil servant who can achieve the position of military governor.
Why did the Shu army choose the southwest direction where the defense was weakest to break out?
How did Wei Changtian know the pursuit route of Zhenshan Camp?
These things can be attributed to coincidence or conspiracy.
You Wenzong obviously preferred the latter, so he took this opportunity to suddenly test Han Zhao.
However, Han Zhao was not the kind of ordinary military attache who only knew how to fight, so he glanced around the lieutenants in the tent calmly, and then lowered his voice and asked:
"Master You, what you mean is...there are rebels in the army, can they be careful?"
"I didn't say that."
You Wenzong looked directly at Han Zhao: "I just feel a little weird."
"Well, thank you Master You for reminding me."
Han Zhao nodded solemnly: "I will investigate this matter secretly."
"Then General Lao will have to worry about it."
You Wenzong didn't see Han Zhao's flaw, and his tone softened somewhat at this time.
He pondered for a moment, then suddenly pointed at the two pieces of jade and asked:
"General, what are you going to do with these items?"
"This... I wonder what your lord has to say?"
"I can't speak highly of you, but I think it should be left to the Emperor to make a decision."
A smile appeared on the corner of You Wenzong's lips: "Perhaps Your Majesty can do something with them."
"..."
Do something with them.
You Wenzong's meaning was very clear, but Han Zhao seemed to be hesitant.
"Sir You, the rebels must have noticed that these items are missing. I guess they are not so easily fooled."
"Well, what the general said makes sense."
You Wenzong shook his head: "But it is still up to the emperor to decide."
"Then just follow what the Lord said."
"..."
The two talked nonsense for a while, and soon You Wenzong left the big tent with the two pieces of jade and the "code book".
Han Zhao waited for a while and then left with an excuse. After returning to his tent, Zhuo Yu immediately sent a message to Chu Xianping.
Among the Shu army, only Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping had the "code book" of the same boat meeting, but the latter had contacted him during the day, so these two pieces of jade could only belong to Wei Changtian.
Therefore, Han Zhaocai notified Chu Xianping as soon as possible and asked him not to send any more messages to Wei Changtian to prevent You Wenzong from learning more secrets.
And now that the "codebook" has been exposed, the Tongzhou Association should immediately deactivate this set of communication codes.
Of course, I believe Chu Xianping can handle these matters properly.
"call......"
A quarter of an hour later, Han Zhao, who received Chu Xianping's reply, finally breathed a sigh of relief and took the Zimu Jade back into his arms.
But this relief was soon replaced by a more serious uneasiness.
Because of the appearance of these two pieces of mother-in-law jade, Wei Changtian's whereabouts have become more confusing.
What happened that made Wei Changtian lose such an important thing?
Where are people now?
Are you still... alive or not?
The more Han Zhao thought about it, the more anxious he became. Unknowingly, he was pacing back and forth in the room several times.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the house.
"General, I have something important to report!"
"Um?"
Han Zhao suddenly stopped and his expression suddenly became uncomfortable.
This voice was very unfamiliar, not that of a lieutenant general or one of his own soldiers.
Reporting beyond the level is a taboo in the military, so...
Having just experienced You Wenzong's temptation, Han Zhao is now somewhat too cautious.
However, after hesitating for a moment, he still responded in a deep voice:
"Come in."
"yes!"
Soon, the curtain opened and an ordinary pawn walked into the tent.
Judging from his clothes, he was just a corps commander, but Han Zhao only took one look at him and was stunned.
Because this person also has the same kind of aura about him.
Having taken Puppet Pill, I am a member of the same boat!
But it's not right...
Not to mention that there are all powerful people in the same boat association, how can a mere corps commander get the qualification to "join the association"?
More importantly, why didn't he know that there was such an "accomplice" in the army?
For a time, Han Zhao's expression changed several times, but at a certain moment he suddenly figured it out.
He looked at the military man opposite who seemed a little nervous and asked straight to the point:
"But Mr. Wei asked you to come?"
"yes!"
The military man immediately came closer and whispered:
"General, Mr. Wei said he is waiting for you at the pavilion in the river in the north of the city."
