Huang Zhang's worry was nothing more than that he didn't know the situation of the barbarian army, and he didn't dare to march rashly, plus the people of the Purging Department had already cut off his spies, just like opening the fog of war, he didn't know what was waiting for him in front of him.

But fortunately, in the evening when Huang Zhang was about to withdraw his troops, a scout dragged his injured body back.

Seven or eight waves of scouts came back, and of course Huang Zhang had to ask what was going on.

"Your Highness, we encountered a sneak attack by the Su army, they are all strong, and the other brothers were killed in a few clicks, I jumped off the cliff and was hung by a tree branch, so I picked up a life and came back." The scout said.

Although it was only a few words, it could also see how dangerous his situation was at that time.

"Did you find any information?" Huang Zhang asked busily.

The scout nodded, "I climbed up again after they left, and secretly followed them for an opportunity, and found out that they were barbarians!" At the eighteenth dock fort, there were about a thousand barbarian troops stationed. ”

"Reliable information?" Huang Zhang asked again.

"It's true!" The scout affirmed: "I looked on the way back, and there was no ambush on the road, but there were a few sentinels that ambushed the assassins, and I quietly hid them." ”

"Good!" When Huang Zhang heard this, he immediately praised: "What's your name?" ”

"Che Lan." The scout replied that after a day's trek and dangerous spying, he was now very weak.

"Che Lan, well, if you win this battle, I want to reward you greatly, come on, take Che Lan down first to give birth to her."

This scout is really good, it's not that he can survive from the hands of the purging department, but after being assassinated, he didn't run away at the first time, but continued to investigate, which is not simple, it shows that he really treats the task as a life, this is a talent.

Huang Zhang's vision of seeing people is definitely not bad, and some people may not be very strong, such as Niu Zhantian, who has been following him since the beginning of Longhu Village, and Zhu Tun, who has been following him since Tianjiabao, the strength of these people may not be very strong, but Huang Zhang can make the best use of his talents.

Niu Zhantian is clever and can do things, but his ability is limited, he can lead troops, but he can't exceed 1,000 people, and he can't do more than 1,000 people.

Therefore, Huang Zhang has not expanded his Shanzi battalion, but used the Shanzi battalion as a scout army to keep improving.

As for Zhu Tun, he is not even as good as Niu Zhantian, it is a bit difficult for him to lead the troops, it may be a problem of his own identity, so that he does not have the talent to lead people, but Zhu Tun is honest, can endure hardships, and faithfully performs Huang Zhang's tasks, so Huang Zhang uses Zhu Tun as a liaison, this kind of person is a liaison, Huang Zhang does not have to worry about his news being distorted, and he does not have to worry about him deliberately making bad and spreading false reports.

These are all practical examples of Huang Zhang's use of people.

Some people may feel that they have been following Huang Zhang's side, and they should give some power no matter what, especially Niu Zhantian, he has been following Huang Zhang longer than Liu Han, but now Liu Han is Huang Zhang's second-in-command, Niu Zhantian is at most the commander of a battalion, and this battalion is still the least man, which is unfair to Niu Zhantian.

But in this world, how can there be absolutely fair things, you can eat as much as you can, if you don't have enough ability, even if you keep following Huang Zhang, what should it be, what should it be.

Li Shiming was originally a hot-blooded young man from a small village, and at first he just wanted to be a soldier by Huang Zhang's side.

Later, Huang Zhang saw that Li Shiming was a clever kid, so he took him to Wucheng to develop.

But to understand one thing, Huang Zhang didn't have much hope for Li Shiming at the beginning, although he gave Li Shiming a lot of money, but in terms of it, except for giving Li Shiming money, he didn't give Li Shiming any substantive help.

But in this way, Li Shiming developed from being alone to gaining a foothold in Wucheng, and slowly formed a loyal special information operations team.

That's a change from nothing!

This is Li Shiming's ability, and when Huang Zhang saw Li Shiming show this ability, he immediately began to tilt his resources towards Li Shiming.

Moreover, it can be guaranteed that in the future, Li Shiming will definitely become a hot celebrity around Huang Zhang.

This is determined by his ability, and has nothing to do with distant relatives.

After thinking about it so much, Huang Zhang just lamented the scarcity of talents around him.

Now he must take it down as long as he finds talent!

Of course, this Chelan has to be investigated again.

However, the information he brought made Huang Zhang completely determined.

joke, there are only a thousand people on the other side, if he just goes back in disgrace, and then calls Bian Huan over, wouldn't he be insulting himself?

"Order, the army is out!"

Huang Zhang gave the order, and the troops began to advance towards the eighteenth dock fort again.

With clear information, there was indeed no harassment along the way, and the scouts sent by Huang Zhang gradually began to return.

However, it was not possible to find out the condition of the eighteenth dock fort.

But none of that matters.

The army had been walking for a whole day, and finally reached the eighteenth dock fort.

At this moment, the dock fort is full of barbarian troops, but it seems that there are not many barbarian troops.

After Huang Zhang arrived at the dock fort, he immediately surrounded the entire dock fort.

If it is true, as Che Lan said, there are only about 1,000 people in the Dock Fort, then he will completely wipe out this barbarian army in the Dock Fort.

After setting up camp outside the dock fort, Huang Zhang began to have soldiers cut down logs around to build battering rams and ladders.

Because the barbarians did not have archers, the cost of the siege of the city was not great.

After half a day's work, the battering ram and ladder were built.

With an order, the siege of the fort officially began!

It is strange to say that in the past, barbarians attacked the city, and the Su army defended the city.

But now it is the Su army attacking the city, and the barbarians defending the city, which is really unexpected.

But what is even more unexpected is that the first day of siege ended in failure.

Huang Zhang thought that the barbarians would not defend the city, but he ignored a very important information.

Among the barbarian army, there are also people from the Purging Department.

The barbarian army will not defend the city, but the people of the Purge Department will, and they will command the barbarian army to start blocking the Su army step by step.

Huang Zhang even vaguely saw Ban Hong, a familiar guy.

There is a class red, and it is really different.

It's not strange that the city didn't take down Huang Zhang, as soon as he came to his side, the people themselves couldn't do it, their morale was low, they didn't spare all their strength to attack the city, they wanted to retreat as soon as they got on the battlefield, and no one rushed forward, do you expect to be able to quickly take down this dock fort? It's kind of a dream.

But it doesn't matter, as long as they are still besieging the city, even a ten-to-one battle loss Huang Zhang can accept it.

Consumables, he was already mentally prepared.

The next day, the siege began again.

This time, Huang Zhang went directly to the battlefield.

Of course, he did not go to attack the city himself, but personally led the overseer to stand behind the siege soldiers.
