Chapter 329 Suspicion is a bit serious (two in one)
Just as Zhao Bai was walking towards the leader's residence, he saw Jianchuan behind him suddenly whistle, and soon the whistle sounded in Zhao Bai's ears!
Zhao Bai didn't know what the whistle meant, but he could guess some.
Ignoring this, Zhao Bai had already walked to the leader's house.
Entering it again, this time the leader of the Huangshi Army had already looked towards the door.
He watched Zhao Bai and Tongtong walk into the room with great interest.
"Why are you back again?" he asked with a smile.
When Zhao Bai saw the other party's reaction, he had almost guessed Jianchuan's behavior.
Seeing their attitude towards him, Zhao Bai felt that it was possible to continue talking about this matter.
He immediately said: "I came back to see the leader this time because I have something to say!"
Although Zhao Bai guessed it, he did not say it immediately. Instead, he tested the other party's attitude again.
When Zhao Bai said this, the leader still smiled and said: "But it doesn't matter!"
It can be seen from the other party's expression and tone that the other party has a good attitude!
Seeing this, Zhao Bai said with relief: "Actually, I came to Huangshi Army with a mission!"
"Oh? Sit down and talk slowly." As if to show his attitude, the leader of the Huangshi Army politely stretched out his hand to the seat next to him and motioned for Zhao Bai to sit down.
Seeing the other party's attitude, Zhao Bai suddenly felt that he seemed to be stable this time.
"Thank you, chief!" After returning the salute, Zhao Bai and Tongtong sat down.
At this time, Zhao Bai continued: "Recently, a new lord has come to Xiqiao County, and he has taken over as the magistrate and envoy of Xixiao County at the same time. I wonder if the leader knows about it?"
"I heard something!" the leader of the Huangshi Army quickly answered.
"Actually, I was assigned here by that gentleman!" Zhao Bai looked into the eyes of the leader of the Huangshi Army and said slowly.
Sure enough, the other party was just as he had guessed. When he heard the news, he did not show any negative expression. Instead, he said with a slight smile: "What is the purpose of sending you here?"
"After your Excellency arrived in Xiqiao County, you soon learned that there was a raging undercurrent in Xixiao County and that rogue bandits were colluding with the upper echelons of Xixiao County!
In the same way, he also knew that many soldiers with chivalrous hearts, righteous hearts, and serving the country were persecuted and forced to become bandits because their ideals did not agree with those of corrupt officials!
He sent us here for two things!"
"Let's talk about it!"
"The first thing is to investigate clearly whether the upper-level officials of the West Frontier County really colluded with the bandits!
The second thing is to see if those persecuted soldiers still have the heart to serve the country and the people!"
After hearing the second thing, the leader of the Huangshi Army immediately said with enthusiasm in his eyes: "What if there is still something to be done?"
"Your Excellency wants us to get rid of our bad reputation and return to our country. He will seek redress for everyone's injustice and grievances!" Zhao Bai said slowly.
"Seriously?" The leader of the Huangshi Army seemed to take this matter very seriously, and he immediately asked.
"Of course I take these words seriously. The two of us were also rebels before. It was only because we were your confidants on the way and gained your trust after being rescued that we were sent to carry out such an arduous task!"
Hearing what Zhao Bai said, the leader of the Huangshi Army fell into silence.
But you can see that his face is full of joy.
There were even tears faintly appearing in his eyes.
Zhao Bai could understand the mood of the leader of Huangshi Army at this time.
A man who clearly wanted to serve his country was forced to become a bandit by this unfair environment.
Whether it is my parents or the elders in my hometown, it is difficult for them to give a good explanation.
Under such circumstances, they look forward to returning to orthodoxy day and night.
It's just that the level of corruption in the West Frontier County is too dark. Without an adult who can clarify Yuyu's arrival, it will be impossible to clear away the dirt in the West Frontier County.
Now the adult he was looking forward to has really arrived.
Although he said that he had been thinking about this for a long time.
But after being excited for a while, the leader of the Huangshi Army calmed down again.
If what Zhao Bai said was true, he would naturally be willing to join him.
But if what Zhao Bai said was false, just to deceive himself, and the new adult was still colluding with the senior officials of Xiqiao County, wouldn't they have fallen into a trap when they returned?
As the leader of the Yellowstone Army, he cannot cause the soldiers of his entire army to suffer unnecessary harm just because of one of his decisions.
So he still needs further confirmation!
"Since we have talked about this, the purpose of your coming here must be to persuade us to join us!"
The leader of the Huangshi Army said straight to the point.
Zhao Bai also had no ink marks, so he nodded and admitted, "Yes, we came to the Huangshi Army for this purpose. It was precisely because we knew that the Huangshi Army was different from ordinary bandits that we found a way to sneak in and talk to the leader in person.
!”
"In that case, how should that adult arrange for us?"
"That lord has some big things to do, but the prerequisite is that you are willing to surrender before he can take further action. Otherwise, it will be difficult for him to break the current deadlock in Xiqiao County.
I'm afraid he will be transferred back to the Imperial City soon! Then a second adult will come, but I don't know if that adult will be in cahoots with the upper echelons of the West Frontier County.
So you only have this chance!"
"Then let me give you a clear answer. We do have the intention to return, but we have no way to report. If you are willing to give us this opportunity, we are willing to return!
It’s just that I want to know how we will be arranged after joining?”
"Please rest assured, if you are willing to surrender, I have a great trust for you!"
"Please say!"
"I wonder if the leader can contact all the leaders of the Free Army? They are the same type of legions as you!"
"Yes, we have always been in contact privately. In fact, everyone is looking forward to returning to orthodoxy as soon as I am!"
"The tasks entrusted to you by your Excellency require the cooperation of all of you to achieve them!"
At this time, the leader of the Huangshi Army did not say much. He waited for Zhao Bai to continue.
"Currently, the upper echelons of the West Frontier County are colluding with the rogue bandit forces. Your Excellency is constrained and it is difficult to take action against the rogue bandit forces.
He needs an army that only takes orders from him..."
When Zhao Bai said this, the leader of the Huangshi Army immediately understood and said: "We are willing to serve this army!"
Zhao Bai nodded and said: "With your support, my lord can make further plans. His next plan is to tear apart the rogue alliance!"
Hearing this, the leader of the Huangshi Army frowned and said, "If we do this, wouldn't it not only not remove the constraints, but also help the upper-level officials of the Western Frontier County to clear up the obstacles?"
"Leader, don't be impatient, just listen to what I have to say!"
"Appreciate further details!"
"While we adults want to sever the rogue alliance, we also want to sever the connection between the upper echelons of the West Frontier County and the rogue bandits, causing their trust to be in crisis!"
"A two-pronged approach?" After hearing this, the leader of the Huangshi Army said immediately with a sudden change of mind.
"Exactly like this, we can completely annihilate the rogue forces in the Western Frontier County in one fell swoop!
When the rogue bandits are wiped out, you want to return to the orthodoxy, which is not a word from adults!
Moreover, once there is a rift in trust between the rogue bandits and the upper echelons of Xiqiao County, the collusion between them will inevitably be exposed.
With this matter exposed and your return, the truth will be revealed.
The soldiers of Xiqiao County will naturally wake up when the time comes.
After all, that lord is the orthodox military power controller sent by the monarch. As the reputation of the upper-level people in the West Frontier County has become completely bad, the soldiers will naturally choose that lord who is both orthodox and serving the country and the people.
Got it!"
Hearing this, the leader of the Yellowstone Army had already raised his hopes!
"In this case, when the time comes for your lord to unify the military power, you will have the dominant position in the entire Western Frontier County.
When the time comes, it’s no longer a matter of trying to clarify Yuyu’s situation and return it to a clear and sunny sky in Xiqiao County!” He couldn’t help but stood up and said excitedly.
Zhao Bai immediately smiled and nodded: "That's right. If the leader can understand this level, he should know that once this plan succeeds, it will be a great thing for the soldiers and civilians of the West Frontier County!"
"Yes, if your master's plan can be successful, it will definitely turn around the dark clouds in the West Frontier County and return it to clear skies!!!"
Having said this, the leader of the Huangshi Army calmed down a little from the excitement and said: "By the way, it is relatively easy for us Free Army soldiers to secretly join forces and attack the rogue alliance, but it will break the trust of the rogue bandits and the upper-level forces in the Western Frontier County.
How to do it?”
"My lord, of course, has other plans for this. You will know when the time comes, but the prerequisite is that you have to contact the other leaders of the Free Army. When our lord leads the troops to attack those rogue bandits, it will be the day when you all attack simultaneously!"
"Yes, we can make preparations early. As long as you have the ability to cause a crisis of trust between the bandits and the upper echelons of the West Frontier County and disturb the peace, we will naturally be able to take advantage of the situation and leave them no time to explain!
"
"Very good, I feel relieved with your words!"
"When are we expected to take action?" the leader of the Huangshi Army asked with concern.
"It won't be long, the leader has already started making arrangements!"
"Then I will send someone to summon you immediately!" the leader of the Huangshi Army said immediately.
"This matter must not be leaked in advance. Do you have a stable communication channel that will not be intercepted?"
"Don't worry, brothers. We have dedicated teleportation arrays in each Free Army.
It was set up so that you could evacuate in time when you were attacked, but it was also used occasionally to send messages.
After all, you all know how big Xiqiao County is, and it has been ten days and a half since the news of the teleportation array arrived!"
"That's right!" Zhao Bai said with a smile.
If that were the case, it would be more convenient.
After the leader of the Huangshi Army blew a few whistles, several people immediately rushed into the room quickly.
"These are all my subordinates who defected with me. They are absolutely trustworthy. I asked them to pass on the news, and it will definitely not be leaked!"
"That's great!" Zhao Bai nodded.
At this time, the leader of the Huangshi Army called a few people in front of him, and then explained in a low voice.
At this time, Tongtong's little ears couldn't help but twitch. She already had the maturity to think independently. She knew that she had to help Zhao Bai distinguish whether these people could be trusted.
So she immediately began to eavesdrop attentively to make sure that the leader of the Huangshi Army gave instructions to his subordinates according to what Zhao Bai said before.
After listening for a while, Tongtong's expression relaxed.
"It seems that he can be trusted, but he is a bit suspicious!" After hearing what the leader of the Huangshi Army said, she said secretly in her heart.
At this time, the leader of the Huangshi Army had finished giving his instructions, and all his men immediately took orders and retreated.
"You two have finished your work, but you must need some rest after coming all the way. Why don't we, the Yellowstone Army, rest for a few days first?"
“Even so, since we have completed our mission, we naturally have to go back and revive you, Sir!
Otherwise, he wouldn’t know that you have joined!”
"That's true, then I won't keep two of you!"
The leader of the Huangshi Army smiled and said.
"Then, my two brothers, please take your leave first!" Zhao Bai stood up and said goodbye to the leader of the Huangshi Army before preparing to leave.
"Let me send you two off so that others can avoid unnecessary questioning. After all, leaving immediately after joining today will arouse their suspicion!"
"Okay, then I'll be able to help you, Chief!"
"It doesn't matter, let's go!"
The leader of the Huangshi Army smiled and then led the way!
Following the leader of the Huangshi Army all the way to the exit, Zhao Bai could see on the way that the leader of the Huangshi Army still had great prestige among the Huangshi Army.
It can be seen that his previous position in Xiqiao County should not be low.
After sending Zhao Bai and Tongtong out of the door, the leader of the Huangshi Army said goodbye to them with a smile.
It wasn't until Zhao Bai and Tong Tong completely left the gate of the Huangshi Army's stronghold that the Huangshi Army leader's smile immediately faded.
"shadow!"
As he whispered, a person suddenly appeared strangely behind him. This person was covered in black clothes, and there was a strange black mist lingering around him. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't even know that there was someone standing behind the leader of the Huangshi Army.
.
"Sir, what are your orders?" He said in a low voice.
"Follow them and see who they see when they return!"
"As you command!"
The moment the shadow finished speaking, the whole person had disappeared without a trace.
At this time, Kanegawa and Chonglou had just reached the leader's side, but all the subordinates that the leader had just called into the room were still nearby and had not set off.
"Master Chief, how trustworthy are these two people?" Kanegawa said first.
"Ninety percent!" the leader of the Huangshi Army replied calmly.
As soon as these words came out, Chonglou couldn't help but smile heartily and said: "He is worthy of being known as a rock-steady master! Even if the credibility is 90%, he will send a shadow to check it out!"
"After all, there are so many sons and daughters, even if it is 90%, I can't believe it completely.
If I lose the bet, I will lose the immeasurable lives of my brothers, so I have to make sure that I am 100% sure before I can take action!"
The leader of the Yellow Stone Army, Jian Shi, said with a determined expression.
No matter how excited he was before and how trusting he showed, he still had reservations. He had to confirm that there was really no problem with Zhao Bai before he would do what Zhao Bai said!
