Shi Python smiled: "Chief Commander Chen has always had confidence in his heart, and his subordinates are just helping you express your thoughts." ”

Chen Ning also smiled and said: "Where, although I have this plan, but if it is not for Commander Shi to help you affirm my idea, I may not dare to implement it." ”

Shi Python: "Where, Commander Chen, you have always made a decisive decision and killed decisively, how could you hesitate?"

Chen Ning: "Where, I'm still young, and I still need Shi to give you more guidance on many things." ”

Qin Yingqi and the others looked at each other, Kan Jing really couldn't help it, and said: "Okay, you two don't want to praise each other anymore, we are all ashamed of the two of you." ”

Chen Ning smiled embarrassedly at the stone python, Chen Ning diverted the topic and instructed the Bull Demon King: "Call the Black Guard Captain Ah Diao, I have something to tell him." ”

"Yes!"

After a while, Ah Diao, who was wearing a black personal guard costume but slightly different from Chen Ning's ordinary personal soldiers, and had an eagle falcon embroidered on his collar, had already walked in quickly, came to Chen Ning, straightened his waist, and gave a military salute: "See sir." ”

The black guard is also one of Chen Ning's personal soldiers, but unlike the ordinary personal soldiers of the Bull Demon King, the black guard in charge of Ah Diao is not mainly responsible for protecting Chen Ning, but an intelligence organization that belongs to Chen Ning's direct jurisdiction and helps Chen Ning collect all kinds of information.

Although there are other sentinels and scouts in the Wings of Freedom, the black guard in charge of Ah Diao is only responsible for Chen Ning and only obeys Chen Ning's orders.

Chen Ning set up the Black Guard because he felt that he had a lot of intelligence information and needed to secretly send someone to investigate. The reason why the young Diao was chosen as the captain of the Black Guard is because Diao admires himself extraordinarily, and to the point of faith, in Diao's mind, Chen Ning is almost a god-like existence, and Diao is willing to do anything for Chen Ning, even at the cost of his own life.

It is precisely because of Ah Diao's loyalty, and that he is very smart, and he has been tempered in the rebel army at a young age and has been a petty officer. Since following Chen Ning, Ah Diao has also performed very well and is a promising young man, so Chen Ning chose to let Ah Diao be the captain of the Black Guard.

Chen Ning instructed Diao: "Sun Yaoyang has gathered 400,000 troops and assembled on the Drinking Horse Plain, it is estimated that it will be able to be assembled in a few days, and then he will launch an attack on our Angel City." With the strength of our Angel City, it is estimated that it will be difficult to resist. So I now give you an order, no matter what method you use, within three days, you must find out where Sun Yaoyang is storing grain, and it is best to find out the strength of the defenders. ”

Ah Diao frowned slightly, looking a little young and old: "It's a little difficult." ”

Chen Ning: "Of course, the Black Guard has been destined to accept tasks from the day it was established, and the tasks it has to accept are full of challenges. ”

Diao: "Time is too short, although I and the Black Guards in the team are all natives, have joined the rebels, and are very familiar with the situation here and the habits of the rebels, but we need to seize such important information within three days......"

Chen Ning said lightly: "Can't you do it?"

"No, I feel like I need the funds to help. ”

"How much?"

"100,000 gold coins!"

Kan Jing, Qin Yingqi, the Bull Demon King, and Shi Python and others were all a little dumbfounded when they heard the words of this young intelligence captain, thinking to themselves, can this little kid do it? And as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked for 100,000 gold coins as funds, what if this kid escaped with such a large sum of money?

Chen Ning looked at Ah Diao, Ah Diao looked at him calmly, Chen Ning smiled quickly, turned his head and instructed the Bull Demon King: "Go and ask the quartermaster Liu Ruyan to prepare 100,000 gold coins as a fund for Ah Diao's action." ”

The Bull Demon King took Ah Diao out, and Kan Jing was a little worried, worried that Ah Diao was unreliable.

Chen Ning smiled: "It's okay, this is a small test for him, I'm optimistic about Ah Diao." Don't be idle these days, send more spies to investigate the location of Sun Yaoyang's grain storage. ”

"Yes!"

In the next three days, the City of Angels sent countless scouts to inquire about all the news about Sun Yaoyang's assembly of troops in many ways, but the sentry sentries sent by Kan Jing found ordinary news, and they were not able to find out where Sun Shuojie had hoarded military rations.

Diao received 100,000 gold coins from the quartermaster's office, took 100 Black Guards, and on the night he received the order, he secretly set off in the night, and then completely disappeared into the night.

Until the afternoon of the third day, almost all the sentinels sent by Kan Jing and them returned, but Chen Ning's black guard was still silent, as if it had completely evaporated from the world. Even the Bull Demon King and others privately said that Chen Ning was too gullible to give 100,000 gold coins to a child, and he was also a poor child. Everyone said that Ah Diao must have run away with a huge amount of money.

At nightfall, the guards had just brought Chen Ning a meal, and Chen Ning was about to enjoy dinner, but he didn't expect the Bull Demon King to break in in a hurry, and said in surprise: "Big brother, Ah Diao's boy, is back!"

Chen Ning was overjoyed: "Let him in." ”

Soon, Ah Diao came in, he was not wearing a military uniform at this time, only wearing the tattered clothes of a homeless boy, with a stubborn face and a faint sadness in his eyes.

When Chen Ning saw Diao's appearance, he thought that Diao might have used the money, but he didn't find anything useful, so he was sad, he comforted Diao and said, "Is it a mission failure, it's okay, failure is a success." Come, sit down and eat with me first, and then talk about what you have after eating. ”

Ah Diao shook his head and bit his lip: "Sir, I'm not hungry, the mission of the black guard has not failed, and the money has been spent by me, but fortunately, we have found out that Sun Yaoyang's grain is hoarded in a place in Longxi in the Drinking Horse Plain, there is a team of 30,000 elite soldiers, and the master will be Sun Yaoyang's right-hand man Gong Jiuquan." ”

"Longxi!"

Hearing this, Chen Ning stood up excitedly, walked towards a huge military map hanging on the wall not far away, and soon found the location of Longxi on the Drinking Horse Plain, circled it with a red pen, and said happily: "Ah Diao, you did a good job, this time to retreat from the enemy, you and your black guard, should be credited...... Bull Demon King, call all of them here, there is a military operation tonight. ”

The Bull Demon King immediately went to inform Kan Jing and the others, Chen Ning turned around and found that Ah Diao got his own appreciation, and said that he remembered his first merit, but he was not happy, Chen Ning noticed that something was wrong, and asked softly: "What's wrong?"

Ah Diao couldn't help but knelt at Chen Ning's feet, hugged Chen Ning's feet and cried bitterly: "I have already found out where Sun Yaoyang is storing grain, but I want more detailed information, I want to know who the chief general of the defenders here is, I want to find out the strength of the defenders here, and take the risk of sending the Black Guard brothers to continue to investigate." But in the end, it was discovered that there were 100 brothers of the Black Guard, and more than 71 were sacrificed, sir, I killed 71 brothers, 71 ah, if you say no, there will be no more, woo-"

Chen Ning picked up Ah Diao and comforted him: "In ancient times, there was a military strategist who said that a general is like a doctor, and the more people who have healed, the more skilled the doctor will be; a general, if you don't experience a few defeats, how can you know how to win a battle? How many brothers have been sacrificed, how many brothers I will give back to you. As for the brothers who have sacrificed, we can't let them die in vain, now what we have to do is not crying nose, but to quickly attack and destroy the enemy's granary, are you willing to fight with me?"

After listening to Chen Ning's comfort, Ah Diao raised his head, bit his lip and said, "Yes!"

At this time, Kan Jing, Qin Yingqi, Fang Zheng, Shi Python and others had already arrived, and Chen Ning instructed: "The black guard lives up to expectations, and it has been found out that Sun Yaoyang's army has hoarded grain in Longxi, and Sun Yaoyang's army has basically been assembled, so we will attack overnight tonight and destroy Sun Yaoyang's granary." ”

Kan Jing and the others didn't expect Heiwei to really find out the information, and they were all very surprised, and looked at the thin Diao with a little surprise.

Chen Ning ordered: "The Bull Demon King leads five thousand Judgment Angel Warriors, Fang Zheng leads five thousand Folded Winged Angel Warriors, Qin Yingqi leads five thousand Six-Winged Angel Warriors, and Shi Python leads three thousand Fallen Angel Warriors in your headquarters, a total of eighteen thousand. All of them traveled lightly, and they rushed with me to attack Longxi overnight, and this battle could only be won, not defeated. Kan Jing, your injuries have not healed, you lead the rest of the warriors, and take charge of the defense of the city. ”

"Yes!"
