can catch Zhao Shuo, there is indeed a lot of luck in it.

Guo Qifeng learned from the scout battalion that they originally planned to touch the other side and find an opportunity to capture the officers of the Zhenjiang Army on land. But unexpectedly, as soon as the scout boat arrived in the waters of Xiabaxia, it ran into Zhao Shuo's reconnaissance boat.

At that time, the sky had just darkened, and the river was dark, and the other party obviously wanted to take advantage of the night to spy on the fortress of Jiuz, but he didn't expect the idea to be wrong, and happened to bump into the scout troops of the rebel naval division.

In fact, this situation is quite normal.

The two armies confronted each other across the river, and each other's reconnaissance and infiltration never stopped, and scout encounters and battles occurred from time to time. Once the two sides meet at close range, they usually start fighting immediately without nonsense.

It's just that this time the rebel scouts are preparing to go to the other side to scratch their tongues, so they have more troops and stronger combat power, while the Zhenjiang army only has a small boat and five people, and they suddenly fell into disadvantage in the process of fighting.

After a fierce chase and fighting, the Zhenjiang army suffered a big loss, three people were shot on the spot, one escaped, and one fell into the water and was captured.

And the one who was unfortunately captured was none other than Zhao Shuo.

Although Zhao Shuo was not wearing the general's armor at that time, the placket of his samurai uniform was embroidered with two silver Nanjin flowers, which were clearly the symbol of the deputy lieutenant of the Zhenjiang Army. The rebel scouts were surprised and delighted when they saw this, and hurriedly searched Zhao Shuo's body, and sure enough, they turned out the officer's waist card: Kunpeng Tenth Army's Second Banner Inspector and Deputy Captain.

This is really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it, and the rebel scouts cheered, and happily escorted the deputy lieutenant Zhao Shuo back to Jiuzi.

After listening to the report of his subordinates, Guo Qifeng couldn't help frowning slightly: Could it really be so lucky? Could there be any fraud in this?

It stands to reason that the patrol in the army is indeed a full-time general who is responsible for commanding scouts and horses and collecting enemy intelligence, but the rank of deputy lieutenant is already very high, how can he personally run out and take risks to investigate?

In this regard, Guo Qifeng felt a little unsteady in his heart, for fear that such a coincidence might have some conspiracy behind it, so he ordered his subordinates not to make a public announcement for the time being, and beat Zhao Shuo fiercely first.

Fight half to death, and the other party may confide the truth.

The rebel scouts faithfully carried out Guo Qifeng's order, turned around and dragged Zhao Shuo into the dense forest outside the camp, and couldn't help but say that he was beaten badly.

After a while, Zhao Shuo was beaten by these guys, his face was covered in blood, two teeth fell out, three ribs were broken, and his whole face was swollen and distorted, and he couldn't see a human appearance.

"Say! Who are you? Name! Office! ”

"Zhenjiang Tenth Army...... Deputy Lieutenant ...... Zhao Shuo. ”

"Why in that place?"

"Bong...... Ordered...... Investigation. ”

"Not honest! Keep playing! ”

There was another burst of punches and kicks, and in the middle of it, sticks and iron rulers fell mercilessly.

Zhao Shuo was in pain and fainted on the spot.

The rebel scout doused him with urine and asked again: "If you tell the truth, you will be spared the pain of flesh and skin!" Tell me who you really are! ”

Zhao Shuo was groggy and vomited blood, while subconsciously responding: "Zhao Shuo, patrol the deputy lieutenant." ”

"Why did you go out of the camp to investigate?"

"The Lord General...... The main general has an order," Zhao Shuo almost fainted again: "The big battle...... I have to ...... it myself."

Seeing his appearance, the scouts glanced at each other, and were about to let go of this poor Zhenjiang army for the time being, but they didn't expect an officer to come over at this time and shout: "General Guo has an order, twist your fingers one by one, until he tells the truth!" ”

Hearing this, the scout put Zhao Shuo up again, and reached out to hold Zhao Shuo's left index finger alone, and used all his strength to force it.

With a crisp click, Zhao Shuo glared at his swollen eyes and let out a heart-rending scream.

Immediately after that, the second, third.

"Recruit or not?!"

"Grass you-mom! I am the deputy lieutenant of the Zhenjiang Naval Army, and I ...... Ahhhh......h My name is Zhao Shuo! ”

The scout officer stared at Zhao Shuo for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Since you are the deputy lieutenant, why did you personally run out to investigate, is this reasonable?" ”

Zhao Shuo hissed and said with difficulty: "I...... There is no way, the Lord will have an order ......"

The scout officer was silent for a while, and then ordered his subordinates next to him, "Take him to General Guo!" ”

All his subordinates answered "yes", and then dragged Zhao Shuo back to the barracks.

Guo Qifeng listened to the officer's report in his tent, looked at Zhao Shuo, who was lying motionless on the ground, and snorted coldly: "Wake him up, I have something to ask." ”

The soldier brought a bucket of cold and biting river water from outside, and splashed it on Zhao Shuo's body, which immediately made him feel excited, and he also sobered up a lot.

Guo Qifeng shouted: "Raise your head!" ”

Zhao Shuo supported the ground with both hands, trembling and straightening up half of his body, squinting his swollen and bleeding eyes, and looking at Guo Qifeng.

"Do you want to live?" Guo Qifeng asked lightly.

Zhao Shuo opened his mouth, saliva mixed with blood kept dripping down, but even so, he still tried to make himself smile and muttered: "Zhenjiang warriors, there is no surrender!" ”

Guo Qifeng was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Even if you die, there is a difference between being happy and not being happy. Wouldn't it be nice to suffer less sin before you die? ”

Zhao Shuo was silent for a moment and lowered his head: "What do you want?" ”

"When you say the main general, do you mean Nie Xianzeng?"

“…… Be. ”

"What order did he give you?"

"Scout Douz."

Guo Qifeng was obviously not satisfied with this answer, and shouted coldly: "Speak carefully!" ”

Zhao Shuo laughed a few times: "Don't talk nonsense, kill me!" ”

"Want to die?" Guo Qifeng gave his subordinates next to him a look: "If you dare to be dishonest, you can only suffer a lot!" ”

An officer strode forward, and with the cooperation of the four guards, he directly used a dagger to break Zhao Shuo's hamstrings. The heart-rending pain tortured Zhao Shuo violently, but his body was pressed by the other party, and he could only keep howling.

Guo Qifeng's face did not change, and he said indifferently: "Answer my question obediently, maybe there is still a glimmer of life." No matter how bad it is, you can die happily. Zhao Shuo, don't be confused at this time. ”

Zhao Shuo didn't pay attention to his threat at all, but just scolded loudly, greeting all the eighteen generations of the other party's ancestors.

Who knows, Guo Qifeng was not angry about this, and raised his hand to signal his subordinates to continue.

The officer nodded indifferently, and then slashed down, instantly severing the tendon of the other foot.

Ahh

Zhao Shuo raised his head, screaming in pain, and his whole body trembled.

"Tell the truth, and you won't have to suffer this sin again." Guo Qifeng's tone suddenly became a little softer: "As long as you answer the questions truthfully, you can completely end all the torture, whether it is for me to let you go or kill you, it will be happy, what do you think?" ”

Zhao Shuo gasped heavily, as if heaven and man were at war in his heart, and after a long time, he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "What do you want to know?" ”

"Why do you want to spy on the doves? What exactly is being investigated? What exactly is your purpose? ”

Faced with these questions, Zhao Shuo was silent for a long time, and Guo Qifeng was not in a hurry, just looked at him quietly, waiting for his response.

After a long time, Zhao Shuo said intermittently: "We ...... Just intended to feint against the doves, the real target...... It was to cover the landing of the Sixth Army on the Anshun River. ”

"In that case, why don't you go upstream to scout the Anshun estuary, but come to the side of Jiuzi?" Guo Qifeng asked for a long time.

Zhao Shuo was stunned when he heard this, obviously being asked by the other party, and hurriedly pretended that the pain of the wound was unbearable, and coughed violently a few times before replying: "Feint...... Feints also need to be faked, so the situation in the downstream waterways must be thoroughly understood...... Ahem. ”

Guo Qifeng nodded, and asked again: "Why did the Sixth Army land on the Anshun River?" What is the purpose? ”

Zhao Shuo thought for a moment again, and responded, "I don't know either. Probably...... Most likely to attack Xuancheng. It is the command center of Bao Yuchun, and it is of great strategic significance. ”

"When to act? How to act? ”

This time, Zhao Shuo did not hesitate and replied smoothly: "On the eighteenth of this month, the navy pretended to attack Jiuzi, but in fact it was only blocking the upper and lower eight waterways, and at the same time, the main fleet transported the Sixth Army to cross the river and go to the Anshun estuary upstream to carry out the landing. ”

Guo Qifeng pondered for a moment and said lightly: "Is this true? ”

"It's true!" Zhao Shuo gritted his teeth: "I have said everything I should say, I just ask you to give me a good time!" ”

"I'm not busy with death." Guo Qifeng smiled and instructed his subordinates: "Take him down, treat his injuries and recuperate, and take care of him." ”

All the soldiers agreed, stepped forward to pick up Zhao Shuo, who was covered in blood and was paralyzed, and withdrew from the tent one after another.

After Guo Qifeng waited for them to leave, he hurriedly got up and asked the screen behind him, "Bao Shuai, what do you think?" ”

With a cold snort, Bao Yuchun walked out from behind the screen and said in a deep voice: "This guy who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, he was lying just now!" ”

"I think so too." Guo Qifeng said with a smile: "Obviously he is a tough guy, and he is suddenly willing to recruit, there must be fraud in it." ”

Bao Yuchun sat down in his seat, frowned and said, "Zhao Shuo knew that he had no luck today, so he improvised a set of nonsense in a vain attempt to confuse right and wrong. It's a pity that he is just a brave and unscrupulous reckless man, thinking and saying, and there are loopholes everywhere. ”

Guo Qifeng bowed slightly, and responded: "What Bao Shuai said is right. According to his humble speculation, the Zhenjiang Army may have really made plans to land on the Anshun River before, so Zhao Shuo was able to tell him about that place, but it was not the target of their current operation. ”

"Of course," Bao Yuchun couldn't help but sneer: "As soon as you asked about the specific content of the action just now, Zhao Shuo immediately hesitated, and used the pain and cough many times to cover it up. In a hurry, he actually said that the landing force was the Sixth Army of Zhenjiang. Amusing! Do you really think we don't know what the Sixth Army does? ”

Guo Qifeng said with a smile: "The Sixth Army is Li Jiangyao's heavy infantry corps, if you want to cross the river to attack Xuancheng, you can only send the Wind Army or the Wild Sand Army out of the army, Zhao Shuo, a fool, doesn't know if he is exposed." ”

Bao Yuchun turned his head to look at Guo Qifeng: "So, do you have the answer in your heart?" ”
