In the first battle that year, Yan Haomiao captured a total of 2,312 of Hua Lao's Xuanjia elite men, and more than 200 people died in the war.

After Hua Lao returned to the Qingyang Empire, Yan Haomiao betrayed his promise and took these people back to Mohe Province, where they were imprisoned for five years.

Until recently, Yan Haomiao's raid on Nantes Province failed, and he also died in Nantes Province.

Then, the Bailie Empire, which did not give up, discovered that Yan Haomiao had taken Hua Lao's men hostage. What's more coincidentally, Hua Lao was also showing up in Anluo Province at this time. According to the spies, Hua Lao was very likely to

Choose to come back at this time.

So the Bai Lie Empire discovered this opportunity, and sent people to contact Hua Lao, and asked Hua Lao to secretly help them seize Fengqi Province on the condition of releasing the hostages.

In order to show sincerity, the Bailie Empire took the more than two thousand people out of Mohe Province, and took advantage of the tense situation in Fengqi Province to sneak into the province through a secret passage. Now, everyone is being

He was imprisoned in a small village near a small border town in Fengqi Province.

According to reports from Hua Lao's early scouts sent to Mohe Province, due to the secret infiltration this time, in order to prevent Fengqi Province from noticing, the Bailie Empire did not send many troops, only 20,000 people.

.

Looking at the information sent by Mr. Hua Lao Chajing, Chen Ze breathed a sigh of relief.

If there were only 20,000 people, it would actually be much better than he had expected.

And the location is not bad either.

He looked at the map and saw that an area on the edge of Fengqi Province was highlighted with a red pen, and that was where the hostages were held.

However, it can be seen that the Bai Lie Empire also spent a lot of effort on this plan. The location they chose is of course far away from the main city of Fengqi Province to prevent the other party from easily discovering it. It is also far away from Nantes Province.

There is a distance here, so Mr. Hua cannot easily send someone to rescue him.

Probably somewhere in the middle between the two.

Chen Ze estimated the distance and began to make calculations in his mind.

If he uses a small elite team to infiltrate, there are actually many infiltration locations he can choose from, so this won't be a problem.

Moreover, there are Tang Tianxing, Gu Qingfeng, Chen Ming and others in the team. These people are all great masters of the lurking method. In addition, Chen Ze has systematic help here, so it is very easy to infiltrate.

But it's the same problem.

The Bailie Empire was prepared for Hua Lao to rescue people, so the location they chose to hold the hostages was very conducive to their own retreat, and it was even convenient to move reinforcements from Mohe Province.

But on Chen Ze's side, in order not to attract too many people's attention, he could not lead too many people to Fengqi Province. More importantly, once a fight broke out, the Bailie Empire could have a steady stream of people pursuing him.

Soldiers, and Chen Ze's side can only fight one less.

You know, it's easy to sneak in, but if you really rescue those hostages...

It is conceivable that even if they did not suffer too much unfair treatment and torture during the five years they were imprisoned, Yan Haomiao would certainly not be so kind as to provide these black armor elites with the conditions to practice martial arts.

They have always maintained their peak fighting strength.

What's more, taking these people out of Mohe Province is a huge adventure in itself. Of course, preparations will be made in all aspects. One of the most basic safeguards is to prevent these people from having much combat power.

There are many specific methods.

For example, if you put heavy yoke on everyone, or if you only distribute supplies that can only maintain the minimum vital signs and don't let them have enough to eat, they will naturally have no energy to do anything.

Chen Ze believed that even if he were responsible for the escort mission of these people, he would definitely do this, and even be more ruthless, so that even if these people were rescued, they would never be able to recover for ten and a half days.

In other words, what Chen Ze and the others ran to rescue would be more than 2,000 burdens, which would greatly slow down their return journey and lead to them being caught up by the Bai Lie Empire.

This is simply another trap!

Chen Ze punched the table with his fist, anger suddenly rising in his heart.

The Bai Lie Empire keeps saying that it wants to cooperate with Hua Lao and exchange a province for these hostages, but its sincerity is not enough!

Yes, people were brought out, but so what?

In that unequal terrain, if you want to save others, you have to get yourself involved.

I'm afraid the Bailie Empire is also thinking like this, right?

Chen Ze sneered again and again, and he could probably guess what General Bai Lie, who was responsible for this matter, was thinking.

The people have been brought to Fengqi Province, which means that they have fulfilled their promise and did not give Hua Lao any excuse.

As for this position, for them they can advance, attack, retreat or defend, but for Mr. Hua, it is one step in and one person out. Want to save people?

Can it run far?

Therefore, Hua Lao's best choice is to obey the Bailie Empire and help them get Fengqi Province, or even Nantes Province. Then, depending on their mood at the time, whether to let people go or not, is actually still better.

It’s just a word from Bailie Empire.

Hua Lao Hui doesn’t understand the key?

of course not!

But so what?

The Bailie Empire has clearly laid out the trap this time, so Hua Lao, are you going to jump or not?

After all, it is easier to rescue people in Fengqi Province than in Mohe Province. For Hua Lao, this is an opportunity that he has been waiting for for five years, and he cannot miss it.

So even though he knew it was a trap, Mr. Hua could only jump into it.

Chen Ze continued to flip through the information, and then came the personnel deployment on Hua Lao's side.

It has to be said that Mr. Hua attaches great importance to the success of this rescue. Chen Ze saw that near the small village that was highlighted, Mr. Hua had sent nearly 500 people there and arranged them around the village.

Within ten miles, it was surrounded by a semicircle.

In this way, if there is any movement inside, he can get the news as soon as possible.

Five hundred people.

Chen Ze thought about it and found that this was also consistent with the time when Hua Lao had contact with the Bailie Empire when he was still in the province of Nantes.

At the beginning, the four main cities of Nantes Province were still in his hands, which meant that the gateway from Anluo Province to Nantes Province was unobstructed, which made it easier for Hua Lao to send people in.

Moreover, at the Dongping City at the junction of Nantes and Fengqi provinces, a gap was opened by the fortifications built by Ouyang Lixing, led by Chen Ze, which made it easier for Hua Lao to enter from Nantes.

Fengqi Province.

But even so, the number of people he sent in was only five hundred.
