Chapter 32, Plan

They continued to rush straight and wanted to kill all the way. There were dozens of soldiers in the sentry card, and the small commander inside was a little capable. He took more than 20 rounds of the two enemies. In the end, they were defeated and were stabbed down on the ground, and their life and death was uncertain.

However, this just won time for Zhang Yuan and his team. As soon as the small commander fell, Zhang Yuan arrived with people and surrounded the two people. The two rushed left and right. After all, they could not rush out. They were surrounded by Zhang Yuan's people.

Zhang Yuan entered the circle, pointed his gun and asked, "Who are you? Why do you want to find out like our barracks? Why don't you get off the horse and surrender quickly?"

The two looked at each other, but did not talk, raised their knives and rushed to Zhang Yuan. In the face of their joint attack, Zhang Yuan was not afraid at all. He had passed through thousands of troops many times. Although these two people were a little capable, he still didn't pay attention to them.

"I don't want to hurt your mounts. Those are two rare horses." Zhang Yuan said to himself in his heart, and at the same time, he immediately took the gun head straight to the upper body of the two. When the first person saw that Zhang Yuan's gun was stabbed fiercely, he did not dare to welcome him. He bent down and dodged. At the same time, he ran to Zhang Yuan's back and immediately turned his head and looked at Zhang Yuan.

At this moment, Zhang Yuan was caught in the middle and was attacked by the enemy. His soldiers couldn't help but be a little careful, but they couldn't intervene. At this time, it's better not to add chaos to Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan was sandwiched between the two, and naturally there was no fear at all.

When the two saw Zhang Yuan among them, they made a color to each other and cut at Zhang Yuan at the same time. Zhang Yuan just withdrew his gun. He didn't expect that their horse speed was too fast. At this moment, they had rushed to the front of him. What surprised him more was that the two cooperated with a real tacit understanding. One in the front took Zhang Yuan's head, and the other in the back bent down to cut Zhang. Far horse legs.

Zhang Yuan held a gun in one hand and pulled the reins in the other. The horse was conscious and kicked his hind legs, just kicking the man's horse on the head. The horse was in pain, hissed, jumped directly into the air, and overturned the man on his back to the ground. At this time, Zhang Yuan sideways dodged the knife cut by the man in front of him, then kicked his legs and rose directly into the air. He jumped high and flew to the horse of the enemy in front of him. At the same time, he slapped him and slapped the man down.

The man still had to struggle, but before he could get up, he was captured by Zhang Yuan's men and horses, and his companions had naturally been controlled by Bai Zhangyuan's team. The two struggled and stared angrily, but they didn't say anything.

"Who the hell are you? Why did you sneak into our military camp? Zhang Yuan asked loudly.

But the two turned their heads and looked around and didn't mean to answer Zhang Yuan at all. Even though Zhang Yuan repeatedly threatened, they did not say a word, but stood up straight and looked at Zhang Yuan fiercely. In the face of this, Zhang Yuan sneered and said, "I will find a way for you to say it."

So he ordered the soldiers to search their bodies. The two struggled hard, but it didn't work at all. On their close-fitting clothes, the soldiers found a number of drawings and presented them to Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and sighed in his heart that he was lucky to catch these two people, otherwise it would be really a bad thing.

Among the drawings found, several of them are maps of the whole Ogre Bay, and the distribution maps of counties and counties of Youzhou. This is nothing. It is not difficult to get these maps, but what shocked Zhang Yuan was that the drawings they brought were detailed marked with Zu Zhao's newly built military distribution maps, important economic areas and Ma'anshan mining areas. Even the grain and fod storage points, garrison checkpoints, ordnance storage points, etc. in their military area are marked in detail, and some of the secret paths marked above are not even known by Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan knew that the situation was serious and immediately took them back to the barracks, but after several interrogations, he still couldn't ask anything from them. He thought that Zu Zhao had gone to Luoyang and had not come back, so he thought of Feng Luoxue and hoped that she would come up with ideas, but he didn't think about it. Zu Zhao also came back, which made him very surprised and surprised.

"They won't say anything?" Zu Zhao asked.

"General, I have interrogated them, but they just keep silent and there is really nothing they can do. You see what they look like, they must be from the northern barbarians. It's better to kill them." Zhang Yuan said.

Zu Zhao shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter whether to kill or not. What I want to know is who gave them these maps marked with secret paths. Few people in these paths know that they can't be drawn by themselves.

Zhang Yuan said, "I also think it's strange that some of these paths don't even know how they got this map."

"So I would like to know who gave them these maps. Wen Yuan, don't underestimate these paths. Some of them are not paths and can be completely passed by large troops, but there are one or two places in the middle that are extremely thrilling, so no one walks, and they are not marked on the general map.

Zuzuo has been on guard against these paths for a long time. He will never forget Deng Ai's road. At that time, the State of Shu thought it was a natural danger and did not set up defense on that side. Unexpectedly, Deng Ai's army fell from the sky. Shu, which had no large army, had no resistance. Even the descendants of Zhuge were unable to do so and died on the battlefield.

Now the barracks are surrounded by these paths. This place is his military reserve. There must be no accident. Otherwise, he will lead his army to fight the enemy, but his base camp will be occupied. This is not worth the loss. If you lose the foundation, you will not be able to move at all in the future. You will not move to others. In progress, this is a kind of backwardness. If you fall behind, you are doomed to be beaten and doomed to failure.

"You mean, we have internal traitors?" Feng Luoxue asked quietly.

"There must be a problem with our insiders. Now Youzhou is divided into major forces, and they are coveting each other, and I have developed independently and will definitely be watched by them. Maybe it was not the northern barbarians who came in to inquire about the information, but a few people of the powerful forces in Youzhou. Zu Zhao said.

Hearing his words, the two people kneeling on the ground couldn't help looking up at Zu Zhao. Seeing Zu Zhao looking at them, they immediately bowed their heads. Zu Zhao naturally saw their subtle movements, and Feng Luoxue did not miss their strange performance. He secretly guessed that maybe as Zu Zhao said, what he really wanted to get information here was actually a force in Youzhou.

Now there are insightful people who have analyzed the overall situation of the world. The decline of the Han Dynasty is an indisputable fact. Although the world is still surnamed Liu, it is no longer under the control of the Liu family. The princes in various places have long had different intentions and actively developed their own strength by taking advantage of the situation of yellow scarf chaos, and plotted to compete for the world one day. .

As several major forces in Youzhou, if they want to plot the world, they must first calm down Youzhou, so there is no suspense that friction begins with each other. However, who sent these two people, and who are the traitors in the army?

"Dealt them and watch them. I will try them in person another day." Zu Zhao said loudly.

Several soldiers rushed in and immediately escorted them down. The two did not speak and shout, allowing the soldiers to take them away. The people present are talking a lot. They don't know how Zu Zhao wants to deal with this matter. Naturally, there are many people who make suggestions. Some say that they will be cut off directly, some say that they will torture and force confessions. There are all kinds of suggestions.

However, Zu Zhao did not make a statement, did not deny or agree. He just looked at everyone's expressions and finally let the generals retreat, leaving Feng Luoxue and Zhang Yuan by his side. The generals said "h" and retreated one after another.

After those people left, Zhang Yuan asked, "General, do you have any plan?"

"What do you think?" Zu Zhao asked back. Zhang Yuan is the person he has high expectations for. He hopes that Zhang Yuan can learn to think independently so that he can be truly independent in the future.

Zhang Yuan looked at Zu Zhao and Feng Luoxue in a stunned way. He smiled, thought for a moment and said, "I think it's still a torture to force a confession. In the end, if they kill them and don't say anything, they will be killed. They can't let them reveal everything here."

Zu Zhao did not nod or shake his head. He just looked at Zhang Yuan, then turned his head to look at Feng Luoxue and asked, "What do you think?"

Feng Luoxue hesitated for a moment and said quietly, "If they refuse to say anything, death is the only choice in the end, but this can't actually solve the problem. Kill the two of them, and more people will lurk in. Now the biggest problem is to find the people lurking inside us."

Zu Zhao finally nodded and said to Zhang Yuan, "Wen Yuan, this is the essence of the problem. You should learn to think from this aspect in the future. I have high hopes for you. In the future, you will definitely be able to be alone and be a general. However, you have to hone during this period. It's easy to get a general with thousands of troops. Do you understand?

Zhang Yuan was very grateful when he heard the words. He bowed and hugged his fist and said, "Thank you, Wen Yuan will definitely live up to the general's trust." He looked at Feng Luoxue with some embarrassment. Seeing her smile, he couldn't help smiling, but he immediately changed to seriousness for fear that Zu Zhao would find him smiling at Feng Luoxue.

Zu Zhao was naturally aware of Zhang Yuan's small actions, but he didn't care, thanks to his trust in Feng Luoxue and Zhang Yuan. Now they are all working for themselves. Some communication on their eyes is necessary. You can't let your subordinates be cold. At that time, you can It's a bad thing. Guan Yu was so strong that no one sent troops to him when he was trapped in Maicheng. Who let him not pay attention to people so much?

"Wen Yuan, how do you think we can find the insider next?" Zu Zhao asked.

Zhang Yuan thought for a while and said apologetically, "General, I'm incompetent. I really can't think of any good than to torture those two guys."

"There is nothing incompetent or incompetent. I can't think of anything big." Zu Zhao looked up at Zhang Yuan, and then asked Feng Luoxue, "What do you think you can do?"

Feng Luoxue also lowered her head and thought for a while, sighed and said, "Why don't we take the initiative to send people to pretend to be internal traitors to contact them, so that we may be able to tell their words."

"Yes, yes, this is a great plan." Zhang Yuan also hurried to express his views.

Zu Zhao nodded slightly and said, "This is indeed a good way, but now we just guess that there is a spy inside us from the two people's expressions and maps, but now we don't know what role the spy is, whether he is a general or an unknown soldier. Is he in me now? Do you know that we have caught such a person in this place? If we rush to test him, I'm afraid he will be energetic.

Zhang Yuan and Feng Luoxue both nodded and agreed. If they do this, they will become self-defeating, and they may be beaten upside down. But what should they do? They don't have any good ideas. While looking at the drawings, the three carefully thought about the problem. Zhang Yuan racked his brains to think that Zu Zhao had high hopes for him. He really hoped to show it. After mediting, he really found something.

"General, please see, the drawing on this map is actually not very standard, that is to say, these paths are not on the original map, but were painted by someone later. General, you see, there are still traces of modification on it. Speaking here, he pointed to a small curve on the map and said,

"Let's go on." Zu Zhao saw that he stopped and motioned him to continue talking.

Zhang Yuan got the order and immediately said, "There are not many people in our army who have these military maps. In addition to the general, there are also me and Zhang Yu. I use my head to guarantee that I am not an insider, and Zhang Yu must not be."

Zui Zhao said, "If you are all moles, then damn it's me. It shows that I treat you nothing so that you will want to turn to others. Go on."

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "General Xie trusts. Now there are only a few of us who have drawings, but when the route was drawn, we asked locals to lead the way. At that time, there were many people going together, but only three or four people could contact the drawings, so I think we can secretly investigate these people.

Zu Zhao nodded and praised, "What you said makes sense. Do you know how many people could touch the map at that time?

Although Zhang Yuan did not say that he could know the names of every soldier, he knew all about the small commanders who could speak, and quickly listed those people. Zu Zhaofeng Luoxue looked at the names of those people. They all knew that those people had followed him since Zu Zhao called for resistance to the Yellow Turban Army. How could he be sentenced at this time?

However, the world is unpredictable and people's hearts are unpredictable. They are not sure that these people will not be sentenced to themselves. Zu Zhao believes this even more. Yuan Shao's defeat to Cao is not the reason why his first counselor defected to Cao Cao. Of course, this is the history that Zu Zhao has not yet appeared. Now that Zu Zhao has come in, he is not very sure how the situation will develop in the future, but he can conclude that what he does not interfere will definitely follow the original track.

However, in the battle of Guandu, I'm afraid I will definitely participate in the battle that changed the pattern, otherwise I will be defeated and busy. Such a big battle has no share, and how can I say that I am here to change the pattern?

Analysis, they think that everyone is possible and that no one is possible. These people are loyal to Zu Zhao. How can they betray him?

"Maybe they don't want to betray me, but be coerced by others." Zu Zhao suddenly said.

"How can I see it?" Feng Luoxue asked.

"Look, three of these five people are from the same county as me, and Li Hong is alone. I still entrust him with a heavy responsibility now. He has no reason to betray me. The rest of Zhang Gong is from Liaodong County. His family has been in Liaodong County, in the same place as Gongsun Du. And I have always had a conflict with Gongsun Du of Liaodong County. I doubt if someone threatened him with his family, asked him to elaborate, and asked him to reveal the layout here? Zu Zhao said.

After listening to Zu Zhao's words, Zhang Yuan immediately patted his thigh, sighed and said, "Yes, why didn't I think of it?" He was in charge of the patrol a few days ago. Then it must be him."

Zuzuo stopped and said, "It's just a guess. Don't be reckless. If it is true as we guessed, then we are not in a hurry to connite him, but to save his family. Zhang Yuan, you immediately go to Liaodong County to find out the information of Zhang Gong's family there, and then immediately send a letter to me.

"Are you going now?" Zhang Yuan asked,

"Depart immediately and don't stop. We can't let the news of arresting people reach Liaodong County first. Zu Zhao said.

"Order!" Zhang Yuan said and bowed down to withdraw.

After Zhang Yuan went out, Zu Zhao said to Feng Luoxue, "You have to work hard on the next thing."

"What do you want me to do?" Feng Luoxue asked softly.

"Send people to monitor the five of them, but don't let them notice. If anyone dares to secretly send people out or fly pigeons to pass on the book, you can stop them quietly." Zu Zhao said.

"It's not difficult. But are we waiting like this before Zhang Yuan sends back the message? Feng Luoxue asked.

Zu Zhao twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled proudly and said, "Of course not. Naturally, we do it first. We can't always be led by the nose.

"What do you mean?"

"You choose people you have to trust and send them to prison. Two of them pretend to be criminals and stay close to them to monitor their behavior. The others are also mixed among the jailers. If the mole learns that the two people have been arrested, he will definitely rescue them or assassinate him in order to protect himself. None of these things can happen. Zu Zhao said.

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Feng Luoxue said.

Zu Zhao nodded and said, "It's not too late. Go and arrange it quickly. I'll deal with some things and come to you in the evening."

"What do you want me to do?" Feng Luoxue asked back.

Zuzuo smiled, looked at her with lust and said, "What are you talking about?" He deliberately said the words very loudly.

Feng Luoxue smiled, scolded him, and came out with his sword.
