Chapter 433 Zhang He: Didn’t you guys make the decision before I even gave the order? ? ?
"Captain?"
Seeing Zhang He tightening the reins and ordering his horse to stop, the Jizhou knights around him all looked puzzled. They looked at each other, wondering why Zhang He did this. The guard next to Zhang He plucked up the courage to ask, "Captain? What happened?"
"The closer we get to Jizhou, the more uneasy I become. I always feel that there are ambushes here."
Zhang He withdrew his gaze and expressed his worries.
The Jizhou cavalry looked at each other, and someone muttered, "Ambush? With this tiger skin, I have never seen an ambush."
"Yes, yes. Even if we really encounter robbers, we can use General Dong's military order, and the robbers will turn around and run away like frightened rabbits."
However, someone soon spoke out differently, "Do you remember what happened in Bingzhou before?"
The whispers of all sorts of people gradually died down after hearing these words, and even the most talkative person shut up.
The so-called Bingzhou incident seems to have happened just yesterday.
At that time, they finally broke out of the encirclement, but were ambushed by Cao Cao.
This moment is exactly like that moment!
Zhang He’s worries are not groundless!
Zhang He did not pay attention to the cavalry's words. He frowned slightly and had already made a decision while the cavalry were whispering.
"Inform all units to be on the lookout and pay close attention to the enemy!"
"Rush through this road as fast as you can!"
"promise!"
None of the hundreds of Jizhou cavalrymen dared to ignore Zhang He's military orders. Even the most tired men in the army were fully alert.
"Quickly pass this path!"
With a wave of his hand, Zhang He led the Jizhou knights who were waiting solemnly, and whipped the whip in his hand with great force. The whip made a sound like thunder, and the war horses reached the fastest speed in the shortest time, like gusts of wind.
Seeing that nothing unexpected happened, the Jizhou cavalrymen felt a little relieved.
"It seems that General Zhang is worrying too much."
Similar thoughts popped up in the heads of the Jizhou cavalry.
But in the next moment, the situation changed drastically.
The sound of rolling came from above their heads. They were startled and looked up quickly. Their pupils shrank in fear. What did they see?
Log rolling!
Countless logs!
Rolling logs came down from the sky!
Before they could react, Zhang He shouted, "Don't be careless, guys! This is an ambush!"
The Jizhou cavalry were startled, but fortunately they reacted quickly. This was not the first time they had encountered such a scene, so those who could put up their shields did so in time, those who could avoid the attack quickly avoided it, and those who were forced to abandon their horses gritted their teeth and chose to abandon their horses immediately.
The Jizhou cavalry used all their strength to dodge the rolling logs, but there were too many rolling logs, and dozens of cavalry were injured or abandoned their horses to protect themselves. If it were other troops, facing a sudden ambush, their morale would have plummeted and they would have scattered.
But the Jizhou cavalry seemed different. Under Zhang He's command, the Jizhou cavalry actually resisted these rolling logs.
Such a situation greatly surprised Zhang Niujiao, who was hiding on the top of a mountain and watching.
"These Dong thieves are so powerful?!"
"It's really rare among the rare ones!"
Fortunately, I didn't get carried away and compete with that General Dong.
Zhang Niujiao held back from saying the last sentence.
Seeing the Jizhou cavalry so brave, even Zhang Niujiao couldn't help but feel a little frightened, and a wave of fear surged in his heart.
These remnants of General Dong are so powerful, no wonder they can occupy the mountains and be kings, and dare to abuse the people and eat their flesh.
And slow!
Zhang Niujiao was stunned, and suddenly he remembered something. His previous heroic expression was replaced by a pale look. His hands and feet felt like they were stretched into a lake in winter, and his teeth were chattering with cold.
I thought Zhang Yide was already powerful enough. Today, when I saw the thief Dong, even the remnants were so brave. Isn't Zhang Yide even more powerful?! How powerful must he be!
Zhang Niujiao swallowed.
Zhang Baique, who was squatting beside Zhang Niujiao, noticed something strange about the Black Mountain Army Commander. He also had some ideas, so he took advantage of the opportunity and said, "Commander Zhang, these bandits are really brave. Aren't you tempted?"
"Huh? How do you say this?"
"Hehe, in my opinion, the leader of these bandits is a genius in training soldiers. Even if the leader who trained these bandits is not a bandit, there must be a bandit who knows how to train soldiers. In my opinion, it is better to take these bandits back to the camp and pry the training methods out of them."
Zhang Niujiao was stunned. He stared into Zhang Baique's eyes for a long time without saying a word.
Zhang Baique did not look away, and there was no extra expression on his face, but he couldn't help but murmur in his heart, could it be that Zhang Niujiao had seen through the clues?
The next moment, Zhang Baique realized how much he was thinking.
Zhang Niujiao excitedly held Zhang Baique's hand, "Brother Zhang is really a talented person! Why didn't I think of it!"
"Ahem. Marshal Zhang Qu is so focused on the war that he doesn't have the energy to pay attention to the smallest details like me."
These words really touched Zhang Niujiao's heart. If Zhang Baique wasn't a subordinate of Zhang Feiyan, he would have wanted Zhang Baique to be his deputy. Look, how good at talking I, Brother Zhang!
According to past circumstances, Zhang Niujiao would definitely laugh out loud when encountering such a happy event, but this time, the corners of his mouth that had just been raised were quickly pressed down by him, and a complex look suddenly appeared between his brows.
Zhang Baique: “?”
Without waiting for Zhang Baique to ask, Zhang Niujiao sighed, "Brother Zhang, these soldiers are still beasts who abuse the people and eat their meat. Is it inappropriate for us to use their training methods? What if the brothers knew about your and my plan?"
"."
Zhang Baique thought that Zhang Niujiao would say something shocking, but he didn't expect it to be so shocking.
He took a deep breath and said, "Let's first ask for the training method. If this method works, we will find a few brothers to try it out. After we get the training method from these thieves and verify it, there is no need to keep them."
"! Brother Zhang is so talented!"
Listening to Zhang Niujiao's words of praise, Zhang Baique felt his ears hurt. He couldn't help but wonder how Zhang Niujiao got to be Qu Shuai. Did he really rely on his own strength?
Just as Zhang Baique was complaining in his heart, Zhang Niujiao suddenly reached out and patted Zhang Baique on the shoulder, smiling and said, "This matter is of great importance. I am unable to take on this responsibility in the near future. Brother Zhang, can you help me share my worries?"
"?" Zhang Baique looked at Zhang Niujiao in disbelief. Did Zhang Niujiao mean to let him be responsible for interrogating the Dong thieves? Shouldn't this be done by a confidant? Could it be that he was testing him?
