Soon, as the carriage drove slowly again, Chu Xianping and Lu Hongji left the small tea stall and continued eastward.
Not long after they left, a pale-faced man also walked out of the house shivering.
The man held a small piece of broken silver in his hand, and when he walked out of the house, he saw the corpses of the Imperial Guards.
"ah!!!"
The next moment, there was an incomparably sad scream, his vision went black and he fainted, and the broken silver in his hand fell to the ground.
And almost at the same time, on a low mountain far outside Fengyuan City, ten people who had been "sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight" for several days finally came down the mountain and headed towards the Ganhui Army Company more than ten miles away. Go to camp.
There are ten people in total, four at the second level and six at the third level.
That's right, they are exactly what Chu Xianping refers to as "his subordinates".
But in fact, strictly speaking, these people did not obey Chu Xianping's orders.
They are subordinates of the leading man in green robe.
But this green-robed man actually only has a "cooperative" relationship with Chu Xianping.
Having cooperated with Chu Xianping and being able to mobilize so many experts... there is no doubt that this person is Zhuang Zhiming.
As the helmsman of Kui Long Bing's third-quarter helm, Elder Bai Tai, the reason why Zhuang Zhiming obeyed Chu Xianping's instructions was naturally because of what he could get from the latter, or what the latter promised him.
This thing is not difficult to guess.
It must be the Moon-Challenging Sword Manual currently in Lu Hongji's hands...
By now, most of the mysteries about Chu Xianping have actually been solved.
If you look at it from God's perspective, Chu Xianping's series of operations are quite like a top fraudster who is very good at "resource integration", or "empty wolf".
After "betraying" Wei Changtian, the resources in his hands were honestly very limited.
Without the power of Freemasonry, without the intelligence of Tianjiyuan, without the identity of "Wei Chang is the best person in the world"...
To put it bluntly, all Chu Xianping had was an elder Kuilong token.
But relying on this token, he actually mobilized power far beyond what anyone in the Three Kingdoms of Ning, Shu and Feng could mobilize.
Using the Moon-Tearing Sword Manual still in Lu Hongji's hands, he borrowed Zhuang Zhiming and Kui Longbing's three-point rudder for his own use.
Using Zhuang Zhiming's power, he not only protected his own safety, but also forced Lu Hongji to kill Du Chang.
Taking advantage of Du Chang's death, Wei Changtian's judgment on whether he was "rebellious or not" became unclear again.
Using the method of breaking the inner demons that only Wei Changtian and Xu Suisui knew, they tempted Lu Hongji into agreeing to the deal just now...
Ring after ring, using the east wind to drum up the flames of war.
With nothing in hand, Chu Xianping used this method to abruptly complete a "closed loop" and accomplished something that probably no other person in the world could do.
And whatever he did, it must have had an ultimate purpose.
As for what this purpose is, I am afraid no one except himself knows it at the moment.
But what a counselor like him wants is nothing more than those few things...
As mentioned in "Guiguzi" in the previous life, counselors are divided into five realms.
One is for self-interest.
The second is to find people.
The third is to recruit troops.
The fourth is to seek the country.
The five principles are to plan for the world.
...
...
Half an hour later, we were fifty miles outside Fengyuan City.
Just when Chu Xianping's plan took another big step forward and was not far away from its conclusion, Wei Changtian was not idle either. He was now standing in a wilderness less than ten miles away from Qian Hui's army.
Behind him is Qin Zhengqiu.
Standing opposite were Zhuang Zhiming's ten men who had just come down the mountain.
That's right.
After learning that Du Chang was Lu Hongji's man, Wei Changtian understood that the latter must not have given up on this battle yet, and would definitely send more experts.
That's why he came to investigate in advance to avoid unnecessary losses to the Tengu army that would arrive later.
Wei Changtian originally thought that the experts who came to help would not come so quickly, but he did not expect that he would actually be hit by him.
What he didn't expect even more was that the person coming turned out to be Zhuang Zhiming.
"Master Zhuang, long time no see..."
Looking at Zhuang Zhiming not far away, Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes slightly, and the corners of his clothes swayed in the wind.
"Did Chu Xianping order you to come?"
"Haha, it seems that he is very happy working with Lu Hongji."
"..."
The cold tone was as cold as the cold wind. Wei Changtian did not hide his murderous intention, and the frequency of the beating of his robe gradually became faster.
It was obvious that Zhuang Zhiming and his group were definitely not here to help him.
Then he would just help Lu Hongji.
In this way, both parties are enemies, so Wei Changtian certainly doesn't have a good look on his face and is already ready to kill as many as he can.
However, at this moment that should have been tense, Zhuang Zhiming's expression was somewhat intriguing.
He looked at Wei Changtian blankly, his mouth slightly opened, and after a long while he whispered in a low voice:
"I didn't expect that..."
"did not expect?"
Wei Changtian frowned and his tone was a bit sarcastic: "What? Are you, the leader of the village, surprised to see me?"
"It's indeed surprising, but it's not because the young master appears here at this time."
Zhuang Zhiming shook his head with a complicated expression, and replied with emotion:
"Mr. Wei, yes, it was indeed Mr. Chu who ordered me to come."
"And Mr. Chu also said that I should meet you, Mr. Chu, before the final battle begins."
"I really didn't expect that Mr. Chu would even take this matter into account..."
"..."
The sky is like a dome, covering the vast wilderness.
The not-so-bright sunshine fell, making the Lili weeds look even more desolate, and also reflected the shock in Wei Changtian's eyes.
What the hell??
Emotions Zhuang Zhiming was not surprised to bump into him, but surprised that Chu Xianping had expected this scene???
No, how did Chu Xianping expect that?
Damn, Zhuge Liang is reincarnated?!
There is no doubt that Wei Changtian was extremely surprised at this time.
Before he could recover, he heard Zhuang Zhiming continue:
"Mr. Wei, Mr. Chu said that if he really sees you, he will ask me to bring you a message."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "He said that if the young master still trusts him, then he should not go back to the army for the time being."
"In less than five days, he will give you the result you want."
"..."
Don't move back to the army.
Within five days, he will give you the result you want...
These two simple sentences kept echoing in his ears. If this was really what Chu Xianping said, then Wei Changtian would naturally understand what it meant.
It was obvious that Chu Xianping had already arranged everything and could easily defeat the enemy within five days.
Of course, all this is based on Wei Changtian still believing in him.
As for whether Wei Changtian still believes in Chu Xianping...
"Haha, then you should also give him a message."
"As long as he doesn't interfere, I can get the results I want in less than five days."
"I'm not afraid to tell you either."
"The Tengu army will arrive at Fengyuan tonight, and as soon as the army arrives, the battle will begin immediately."
"Master Zhuang, I will spare your lives for now."
"But if I still see you on the battlefield tonight, you will definitely die by then."
"That's all I have to say. If you tell Chu Xianping exactly what you said, I want to see what he will do!"
"Grandpa, let's go!"
"..."
Without any hesitation, after saying the last words, Wei Changtian turned around and left with Qin Zhengqiu without looking back.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, Zhuang Zhiming said nothing, let alone catch up.
He just stood there stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief.
There is no doubt that Zhuang Zhiming was very surprised at this moment.
But just like before.
He was not surprised by Wei Changtian's choice, but...
