The county order invited the army to enter the city, and Cao Zhang was of course a little moved.

Zhu Ao, who was sitting on the side, sneered: "The county order is a good plan!" ”

was originally weak-hearted, but when he was broken by Zhu Ao, the county commander trembled all over, and asked him: "Dare to ask this general, why do you say this?" ”

"When the army enters the city, you close the city gates, and then ambush the troops everywhere, are you planning to do this?" Zhu Ao asked the prefectural order.

He and Han Zhong's plan was actually broken by Zhu Ao, and the county commander's nervous heart almost jumped out of his throat.

But after all, he has been an official for many years, and he has seen some of the world.

Forced to calm down, he said to Zhu Ao: "It's nothing if the general doesn't believe me, but the county town of North Korea is only so big, and there will be a total of seventy-two people defending the city." The third prince has two or three thousand men and horses, but there are only seventy-two soldiers in the city, I don't know what to do with these seventy-two people? ”

"There are only seventy-two defenders in the entire city?" Cao Zhang also asked the county magistrate.

Zhu Ao didn't speak again, and the county magistrate saw that he was just a temptation, so he was relieved a lot, and said to Cao Zhang: "The third prince doesn't know, North Korea County belongs to Lelang, and the Gongsun family has occupied Liaodong for many years, and he only cares about investing in Liaodong but never cares about Lelang. In the counties in Lelang, most of the soldiers who maintain the local area are no more than 100. We have a lot of defenders here. ”

Seventy-two people is actually quite a lot, Cao Zhang stared at the county order with some disbelief: "You won't be fooling me, right?" ”

"Heaven and earth can be learned!" The county magistrate swore to the sky: "If I kill the third son, I will be trampled to death by a chaotic horse, and I will not be completely corpsed!" ”

"General Zhu, what do you think ......" Without making a decision immediately, Cao Zhang asked Zhu Ao.

"I think we should send a team of soldiers into the city first." Zhu Ao said: "Wait for them to find out clearly and then come back to report, if there is really no ambush, we can enter the city." ”

There was no sound in the tent of the county order.

He knew very well that if he spoke out to stop it at this time, not only would he not be able to achieve what he wanted, but it would be easier to arouse the suspicion of Cao Zhang and Zhu Ao.

It's better not to talk than to speak, he simply chose to shut up!

His eyes fell on the county commander's face again, and Cao Zhang asked, "Are you sure you didn't trick me?" ”

"I have sworn to heaven that if the third prince doesn't believe it, just send someone to the city to investigate." The prefectural order replied very sincerely.

Looking at Zhu Ao, Cao Zhang said, "I feel that he doesn't seem to be lying." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not." Zhu Ao replied: "It's always right to be careful. ”

Cao Zhang smiled and waved his hand, and said to Zhu Ao: "North Korea is just a small county town, you and I led two thousand soldiers and horses to come here, is it possible that we will be killed by a county order?" I wish the general to be too careful. ”

Zhu Ao wanted to say something more, but Cao Zhang had already stood up.

He shouted outside the tent, "Someone! ”

A guard walked into the tent, and Cao Zhang ordered: "Pass my military order, the army will enter Korea immediately, and it will be stationed in the city tonight." ”

When Cao Zhang issued this military order, the county commander was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, he just stood aside and said nothing.

I always couldn't believe in the North Korean county order, but Cao Zhang had already given the order, and Zhu Ao didn't want to say anything more, so he stood up and walked out of the tent.

The North Korean county commander accompanied Cao Zhang to lead the troops into the city, and Zhu Ao instructed the guards on the side: "Select two hundred people to always accompany the third prince, no matter where he goes, he must not leave an inch!" In addition, the soldiers were told that when stationed in the city, no one was allowed to remove their armor, and weapons and protective gear must be kept within reach. ”

Although the pioneer officer is Cao Zhang, Zhu Ao is a deputy general after all.

The order he gave did not contradict Cao Zhang's order to enter the city, and the guards quickly conveyed his order.

Cao Chang led the vanguard army into the Korean city, and followed the observing Chen Zhi to watch from afar.

A fast horse galloped in front of him, and when he arrived in front of Chen, the knight pulled the reins, and the war horse stopped neighing.

"How?" Without waiting for the dragon pattern rider on horseback to speak, Chen Zhi had already opened his mouth to ask.

"Returning to the general." The dragon rider replied: "The Korean county commander personally went out of the city to greet him, and the third prince went into the city with the vanguard. ”

"Did you find anything out of the ordinary?" Chen Zhi asked again.

"Nothing out of the ordinary." The dragon rider replied: "It really looks like the Joseon county order plans to sacrifice the city." ”

"I have followed Gongzi for many years, and I haven't encountered anything about the city." Chen Zhi said: "But this time I don't know why, I always feel unstable in my heart......"

The Dragon-Striped Riders who followed him were all watching him.

Just when Chen Zhi didn't know what to choose, a dragon rider walked up from the back of the team.

"General, Childe has sent someone!" In front of Chen, the dragon rider said.

"Bring someone here." Knowing that Cao Shuo had sent someone, Chen Zhi hurriedly ordered.

Not long after the dragon rode away, he came to Chen Zhi with two officers.

"I've seen General Chen." Two officers bowed their hands to him.

Chen Zhi replied and asked, "What do you have to say?" ”

One of the officers replied: "Gongzi asks General Chen to keep an eye on the third prince, and don't let him go wrong." ”

"Keeping an eye on?" Chen Zhi smiled bitterly: "The third prince has entered the Korean City, why am I still staring at him?" ”

Another officer was stunned and asked, "The third prince has entered the Korean city?" ”

"I just got the news." Chen Zhi instructed the dragon rider who had brought Cao Zhang's news, "You tell the two of you what you see." ”

The dragon pattern rider told the two of them about the situation that he had just reported to Chen Zhiqi.

The officer who questioned Chen Zhi said: "Gongzi ordered me to pass the order to the third prince, since he has entered the Korean city, I have to go as soon as possible!" ”

"Dare to ask what order Childe wants you to convey?" Chen Zhi asked.

The officer showed hesitation on his face, and it was Chen Dao who wanted to ask, so he no longer concealed it: "Gongzi wants the third prince to be stationed outside the Korean city and wait for the army to arrive before continuing to advance." ”

"It's too late for this order." Chen Zhi said: "It doesn't make a difference whether you go or not to convey it, the third prince has entered the city, at least he will leave tomorrow morning." There is no difference between you going to give the order now and giving the order tomorrow. ”

The officer who was ordered to give Cao Zhang the order said: "Gongzi ordered me to convey the order to the third prince as soon as possible, since I have already arrived here, how dare I delay any longer." ”

He bowed to Chen Zhi: "General Chen, I'll leave first!" ”

"Since you insist on going, I can't stop you." Chen Zhi said: "You must be extremely careful. ”

"Thank you General Chen for the reminder!" The officer answered, and rode away.

Seeing his departing back, Chen Zhi instructed the dragon-patterned rider: "Pay close attention, don't let go of any clues!" ”

The dragon rider received the order and followed the officer towards the Korean city.
