Chapter 649 - 649 Just You Wait and See
649 Just You Wait and See
Not only did the people who wanted to smear Shi Qing’s name grit their teeth in hatred, the elites of Ge kingdom were the same.
They had used many hidden spies, but they had not found out which route Shi Qingluo had arranged for the other team to escort the supplies.
They had no choice. They did not dare to stay in Daliang’s territory for too long. Otherwise, they might be wiped out by the generals of Daliang and could only retreat to the border.
However, just as they were about to approach the border, they were ambushed. Only a few people survived, and the others were all shot dead.!!
When the general saw so many people die, his eyes were filled with disbelief.
A handsome young man in tight-fitting clothes rode out of the forest with a group of people.
He had seen most of the generals on Daliang’s side before, so he could guess who it was.
“Are you Xiao Hanzheng?”
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “Yes, I am.”
“Since you have come to Daliang, how can you leave so soon? Come back with me as a guest.”
He and his wife had been sending letters by pigeon, and at the same time, they had people keep an eye on the team that was transporting fake supplies.
Therefore, the whereabouts of these people were all under his control.
Did these people really think that they could come and go as they pleased?
The general’s expression changed. “I didn’t expect a weak scholar like you to be able to lead an army. You’re as treacherous as Princess Fubao.”
He also knew that they had fallen into the trap of Xiao Hanzheng and Princess Fubao since they stepped into the Northern Territory.
He had gotten fake supplies and laid an ambush here. It was really too sinister.
Xiao Hanzheng smiled. “This is not called cheating. All is fair in war.”
“Are you coming with me, or do you need my people to invite you?” he asked.
The general sneered. “The soldiers of Ge Kingdom are all brave warriors. We will never surrender. Kill us if you dare.”
He was sure that Xiao Hanzheng would not kill them and wanted to bring them back alive.
But to his surprise, Xiao Hanzheng took out an arrow from the horse and shot it at his heart.
Xiao Hanzheng moved so fast and the arrow was so fast that he did not even have time to react and was hit in the chest.
Then he fell off the horse and looked at Xiao Hanzheng in disbelief. “You!”
Before he could finish speaking, he died.
Xiao Hanzheng was still smiling. “Since you are so brave, I will grant you your wish.”
“What about you guys?” he asked the others with a smile.
The remaining few people were speechless.
At this moment, they all thought that this pale-faced scholar was a ruthless character.
Who would want to die if they could live? Therefore, they took the initiative to dismount and surrender.
Xiao Hanzheng put away his bow and arrow. “Great, I don’t need to waste arrows.”
The few of them were speechless.
The annihilation of this elite team was just the beginning.
Then, the other teams that were sent out to rob the supplies were all ambushed by Xiao Hanzheng and captured.
Xiao Hanzheng’s reputation also spread among the soldiers of Daliang.
When he first came with the commander’s seal, he did not think highly of anyone. He was even prepared that the border would be broken through by the Ge Kingdom’s cavalry.
However, he did not expect Xiao Hanzheng to be so powerful that he set up a trap with Princess Fubao and killed thousands of Ge Kingdom’s elites.
How could these people sneak into Daliang’s territory so easily? Of course, Xiao Hanzheng had asked them to do so on purpose.
This also cleared the obstacles for the troops from the capital to send supplies in advance.
When the Ge Kingdom’s commander found out, he was furious.
They had stepped up the siege, trying to force Xiao Hanzheng to come out and rescue the Third Prince, only to be ambushed by them.
This was an open plan. He believed that Xiao Hanzheng would come. After all, the one who was surrounded by the city was the son of the Emperor.
If Xiao Hanzheng had not come, would the Emperor not be angry if the Third Prince was captured or killed?
After dealing with all the Ge soldiers who had sneaked into the North Border to rob the supplies, Xiao Hanzheng did not go back to the city or save the Third Prince. Instead, he waited on a road.
The next day, a galloping horse appeared in front of everyone.
Shi Qingluo received letters from her little husband every day, so she knew that he was waiting there.
She reined in the reins when she was in front of Xiao Hanzheng.
After getting off the horse, she did not rush over because there were hundreds of soldiers behind Xiao Hanzheng.
Instead, she looked at him with a smile, her eyes filled with pride as she said, “Well done!”
Xiao Hanzheng resisted the urge to hold his wife in his arms.
He raised his hand to stroke the stray hair on her forehead. “This is all thanks to Wifey’s cooperation.”
A deputy general who fought with Xiao Hanzheng could not help but ask Shi Qingluo, “Madam, did the Northern City really send supplies over? Or was it just a cover?”
They couldn’t figure out where the convoy that was sending the supplies had gone. After all, they hadn’t encountered them when they were clearing out the Ge Kingdom’s teams.
Therefore, they were all guessing that there might not have been a real supply team that had set off at all. The supplies were still in Northern City.
Actually, it wasn’t just them who guessed this. Many people in Northern City also guessed this.
“There really are supplies here,” Shi Qingluo replied with a smile.
She then turned to Xiao Hanzheng and asked, “Are we going to deliver the supplies to the city where the Third Prince is?”
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “Yes, according to the news from the city, the food in the city has been used up. We can only hold on for two more days, or people will starve to death.”
“If we continue to starve like this, the Ge Kingdom’s commander will send people to attack the city. The soldiers in the city will not have the strength to resist.”
Shi Qingluo nodded. “This is indeed a little troublesome.”
“Then I’ll send the supplies to the city to support the Third Prince and the others? When the time comes, we’ll work together from the inside and outside to catch the Ge army off guard.”
The generals of Ge Kingdom must also have spies who were reporting the situation in the city at all times.
Therefore, the commander would be misled. The soldiers in the city would not be able to eat, and they would not have the strength to fight if they were hungry. Therefore, only the army led by the young master would have to be guarded against and ambushed.
At that time, if they worked together from the inside and outside, they would definitely be able to produce very good results.
Even if he had found out about this strategy, he still had a backup plan.
Xiao Hanzheng knew that his wife had a trump card, but he still asked worriedly, “Are you confident?”
In his heart, his wife was the most important. If there was danger or she was not confident, he would rather give up on his previous plan.
Shi Qingluo nodded confidently. “Of course I’m confident.”
The soldiers who were listening to their conversation were speechless. Why couldn’t they understand?
“Madam, the border town where the Third Prince is located has been surrounded by the Ge Kingdom’s army. Their commander is also guarding it. Unless we fly in, it’s impossible to break in.” The deputy general could not help but say.
“Even a single person would have a hard time getting in, let alone a team delivering supplies.”
So the madam’s idea was too far-fetched, but the lord actually went along with it.
The others had the same thought.
Shi Qingluo knew what they were thinking. She smiled and said, “I know what to do. Just wait and see.”
The deputy general and the others were speechless.
They really wanted to say, Madam, don’t tease us.
They really couldn’t imagine how Madam was going to get in, let alone send supplies in.
