Chapter 175 The heroes see the same thing

Yin Shi.

Yecheng, above the city head.

Zhang Liao frowned, as if he had something on his mind.

"Wenyuan, what are you doing standing here?" Taishi Ci came to Zhang Liao's side and asked.

After the battle in Yecheng, Taishi Ci and Zhang Liao could be regarded as comrades who would live and die together.

The relationship between each other can be said to be quite good.

Zhang Liao frowned and said in a deep voice: "I sent two generals to deliver Tian Feng's body. It has been almost two hours. Why haven't these two generals returned yet?"

After figuring out what Zhang Liao was thinking, Taishi Ci slapped his thigh and said, "I understand. Let's send someone to deliver his body. So, he is very grateful to us."

"I guess Zhang He hosted a banquet and invited our two generals to a banquet before asking them to come back."

Not to mention, what Taishi Ci had in mind was quite beautiful.

Hearing Taishi Ci's words, Zhang Liao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Ziyi, you are joking!"

"Their military advisor hanged himself on top of the city. It's too late to be sad now! How can they prepare a banquet to entertain our two generals!" Zhang Liao said helplessly.

Taishi Ci insisted on his opinion and said: "Then it is a dead person who wants to eat!"

"In our village, if a respected person like Tian Feng dies, the funeral will take at least three days."

It is indeed true that dead people must eat at the funeral.

But, you also have to look at what time it is!

Now the two sides are fighting, and countless people are dying every day. How can we have time to eat?

Zhang Liao pondered for a long time, and no longer tried to hide his words, he expressed his thoughts to Tai Shi Ci.

"I wonder if Zhang He has withdrawn his troops under the cover of night!" Zhang Liao said with hesitation in his tone.

Obviously, this idea is just Zhang Liao's bold guess, and he himself doesn't have much certainty.

At this moment, the sound of "ta, da" footsteps came from behind Zhang Liao and Tai Shi Ci.

Zhang Liao and Taishi Ci both turned their heads and saw that the person coming was none other than Su Ming.

The battle had been going on for a day. Zhang Liao and Tai Shi Ci were afraid that Su Ming would be overtired, so they asked Su Ming to go back and rest first.

After Su Ming went back and lay down on the bed, he felt something was wrong.

Tian Feng hanged himself at the gate of Yecheng. This is very wrong!

If Zhang He was planning to continue attacking Yecheng, then Tian Feng would not commit suicide, but would continue to advise Zhang He.

Tian Feng hanged himself under Yecheng. He probably saw that there was no hope of attacking the city, so he did this.

Since there is no hope of attacking the city, Zhang He will probably withdraw his troops.

Su Ming also thought of this, so he came to Zhang Liao for discussion.

"Wen Yuan, heroes have similar views. I also think that Zhang He should be preparing to withdraw his troops!" Su Ming heard Zhang Liao's thoughts and continued.

Hearing that Su Ming had the same idea as his, Zhang Liao became more confident.

"If the young master also thinks this way, then I am somewhat sure!" Zhang Liao said slowly.

"Lord, I'll take a few scouts and go down to find out!" Tai Shici said eagerly.

Su Ming nodded, feeling that it was not bad.

No matter how much speculation there is, it is better to send someone down to see if Zhang He has withdrawn his troops. We will know at a glance.

However, it is difficult to open the city gate in the middle of the night.

If Zhang He had any ambush, he would have fallen into his trap as soon as he opened the city gate.

For Su Ming, stability is the main priority now, and the city gate must not be opened.

Su Ming thought for a moment and then ordered to Zhang Liao: "Wenyuan, you go and some big bamboo baskets are coming to you."

"Let's put Ziyi down in the city in a bamboo basket."

Then, Su Ming ordered Tai Shici: "Ziyi, take a few clever brothers and quietly go to Zhang He's camp to find out the situation."

"If there is anyone in the camp, don't go deep and come back early."

“In short, it’s always best to be careful.”

Taishi Ci cupped his hands towards Su Ming and said in response: "My lord, you can rest assured that I, Taishi Ci, am working on something!"

"I promise, nothing will go wrong."

After making his sworn promise, Taishi Ci personally ordered a few clever scouts and went with him to Zhang He's camp to find out what was going on.

After selecting the manpower, Taishi Ci took these people and squatted in the bamboo basket, and then let them down little by little.

When they came back, it was very simple.

There are people watching the bamboo basket all the time. When they come back, they tug on the rope above them. When the people above notice it, they will pull the bamboo basket up.

Using this bamboo basket to go up and down the city wall is a bit slow, but the advantage is that there is no movement and no one is aware of it.

Taishi Ci led his people quietly down the city wall, and then quietly walked toward Zhang He's camp.

Soon, Taishi Ci led these scouts to the edge of Zhang He's camp.

After reaching the edge of Zhang He's camp, Taishi Ci did not dare to go any deeper.

Because the lights in Zhang He's camp were brightly lit, and there were so many shadows in the tents that people could be seen.

Moreover, there was also a group of soldiers standing guard at the gate of the camp.

"General Taishi, we can't go any further!"

"There are people in the camp. If we go further, they will find us!" A scout said to Tai Shici.

Taishi Ci looked at Zhang He's camp and muttered: "It seems that my lord and Wen Yuan guessed wrong. Zhang He did not withdraw his troops."

"Damn it, Zhang He is so careless. We kindly sent him corpses, but he actually detained our soldiers."

Taishi Ci cursed Zhang He, but still remembered Su Ming's instructions when he came.

If you see someone in Zhang He's camp, you must not act recklessly and report back as soon as possible.

"Walk!"

"Go back and be careful!" Tai Shici ordered softly.

Not long after walking back, one of Taishi Ci's scouts stumbled and fell into a dog's excrement.

Seeing this scene, Taishi Ci's face turned dark.

"What are we going to do? Can't we walk even further?" Taishi Ci cursed with a dark face.

The scout quickly explained and said with an embarrassed look on his face: "General, there is horse dung, there is a puddle of horse dung under your feet."

When Taishi Ci heard that it was horse dung, he was stunned.

After a while, Taishi Ci seemed to have thought of something. He quickly squatted down, twirled the horse dung with his hands, and said softly: "It's hot. This horse dung is hot."

At this time, Taishi Ci also realized something was wrong.

If it was horse manure left during the day, it would have been cold by now.

The horse manure is hot, indicating that horses passed here not long ago.

It is now midnight, Zhang He's troops should not leave the camp.

They saw with their own eyes that Zhang He's camp was brightly lit!

"wrong!"

"Something's wrong, something must be wrong!" Taishi Ci thought of this and shook his head repeatedly, as if he was pondering what went wrong.
