Chapter 395 Good News

Chai Yining knew very well that Zuo Qi was not to blame for this incident.

It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. No matter how capable Zuo Qi is, leading a group of common people will hardly be able to form any combat effectiveness in such a short period of time.

Only by making surprises can we win, but their surprises have already been known by the opponent in advance. This is the key to defeat.

"Dad, I know the overall situation is the most important thing, but can you guarantee Zuo Qi's loyalty? If he is caught, will he betray us?" Chai Shen said.

Chai Yining was silent when he heard this. He really didn't completely believe Zuo Qi, otherwise he wouldn't have betrothed his adopted daughter to him.

If it were just that, he would not doubt Zuo Qi.

But the letter I just received said that people from Bianjing were discovered, and everyone including Ruyu was arrested.

Zuo Qi likes Ruyu very much, and the reason why he joined the Wizard Cult is because of Ruyu.

Once Zuo Qi knows that Ruyu has been caught, he will definitely find a way to rescue him.

But what's the difference between trying to save people in Bianjing City and seeking death?

When he read the letter just now, he didn't say it because he was afraid of shaking people's hearts.

But his heart had been shaken, and he even had the idea of ​​getting rid of Zuo Qi first.

Otherwise, once he refuses to save people, Zuo Qi will be resentful and will always be a hidden danger.

But Zuo Qi is the talent that the Wizard Cult lacks most, and he is still reluctant to get rid of him like this.

So I was very hesitant.

"Ruyu was caught." Chai Yining said after being silent for a while.

“What?”

Chai Shen’s expression changed when he heard this, and he said, “Dad, let’s run away quickly, it will be over if Ruyu confesses us.”

“Why are you panicking?”

Chai Yining shouted in a low voice: "Ruyu doesn't know this place at all, so what if he confesses it?"

Zhao Xing guessed right, Ruyu's knowledge is indeed limited.

In other words, Chai Yining has never trusted anyone.

He had secret hiding places all over the Song Dynasty, some inside the city and some outside the city, but Ruyu only knew about a few places, not including this one.

This was also the reason why he was not very anxious when he learned that Ruyu had been arrested.

"The child almost looked at Ruyu and didn't know where he was." Chai Shen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Chai Yining was very disappointed with his son's performance. He was timid and afraid of getting into trouble, and would become so panicked when encountering the smallest things.

Chai Yining suddenly realized how stupid he was to have been complacent about learning his grandfather's true teachings, and that he was better than his master.

The greatest thing about my grandfather was not the things he taught him, but the training of his descendants.

But he had been busy traveling around in the early years and neglected to teach his son.

"No!" Chai Shen's expression changed and he said, "Haier once told Ruyu the approximate location of our hiding place in Jiangzhou!"

"What?"

Chai Yining Hearing this, his face changed drastically, and he slapped his son hard.

“Damn, how many times have I told you not to think about women, otherwise you will die at the hands of women one day!”

“Dad, I didn’t expect Ruyu either. I will be caught." Chai Shen covered his face and said with aggrieved expression.

When Chai Yining heard this, he wanted to kill him, but he only had a son, so he couldn't bring himself to do so.

However, this incident also cut off his continued hesitation and forced him to make a decision.

Bianjing

Zhao Xing was frightened after reading the good news from Jiangzhou and the confession about Gu Tingwei.

The soldiers and horses brought by the Song Dynasty only had three days of food.

The grain shipped to Jiangzhou encountered many obstacles on the road.

Although most of the food in Jiangzhou City has disappeared, there is still some food left in the granary.

No matter how courageous Jiangzhou officials are, they would not dare to transport all the grain away, otherwise they would not even have a chance to cover up once someone inspects them.

In addition to interrogating those officials and recovering some of the food that had not been transported, there was no problem. Otherwise, when there is a shortage of food, they will either have to forcefully grab food from the rich households in the city, or they can only send troops to attack and steal food from the rebels.

With so many rebels, there must be food.

Given the situation at that time, it was definitely too late to submit a letter for instructions.

I am afraid that no one in Xianggong Shen or the Song Dynasty would dare to send troops to rob the rich households of their food, because the impact would be too bad.

The only option is to send troops.

If you send troops under such circumstances, not only will the morale of the troops be unstable, but because of their eagerness, they can easily be plotted by the opponent.

Because of early discovery, the Song Dynasty fought steadily and defeated the rebels several times.

The rebels were rampant before because the government did not send any troops to encircle and suppress them.

Now that the imperial court has sent troops, the rebels are already in panic.

In the final analysis, the people were not forced into a desperate situation. Some were bewitched and others were coerced to follow the rebellion.

As long as the first battle is successful, the already unstable rebels will naturally be completely in chaos, and the next thing will be simple.

Song Chaozhong said in the victory report that he was now clearing out the fleeing rebels, and it would not be long before the rebellion could be completely suppressed.

However, he finally mentioned that some of the young rebels were different from ordinary people. It seemed that after preliminary training, they were able to form military formations.

Although the time is too short and the weapons are backward, the threat is not great, but this also shows that there are people in the rebels who know how to train soldiers, which should be the wizards who Zhao Xing said in the previous letter.

He is already chasing him, but there are many mountains near Jiangzhou, so he may not be able to catch him.

When Zhao Xing saw this, he was shocked and funny at the same time.

What shocked him was that there were people in the Wizarding Cult who knew how to train soldiers.

You must know that you cannot become a general by reading a few military books.

Marching and setting up formations is something that a general must know.

But these things are not taught in military books.

Therefore, most generals rely on force to lead troops to charge.

Real generals can all march and form formations. Almost all such people have a heritage.

Of course, you can also accumulate experience through constant war exploration.

For example, Zhu Yuanzhang himself and many of the Huaixi nobles who helped him conquer the world were born in the same mud-legged family as Zhu Yuanzhang.

Not to mention leading troops to fight, many of them don't even know their words.

It is the experience gained through learning and groping through constant wars.

Current events create heroes, that’s it.

But now there are no such conditions for people to learn and explore. The wizard teaches the person who can train soldiers, and it must be a family tradition.

The Wizarding Cult can only confuse people, so Zhao Xing is not particularly worried.

But it’s different if someone knows how to train soldiers.

What he found funny was the little thoughts in the Song Dynasty.

Although it was not stated explicitly in the Song Dynasty, it was said between the lines that if someone cannot be caught, don't blame him.

Originally, he won the battle and was about to put down the rebellion and receive rewards for his merits. However, Zhao Xing wrote a letter saying that he must catch the leader.

If no one is caught, it will be over by then.

Although he would not be punished, he would be depressed if Zhao Xinglai made a mistake.

Zhao Xing pondered for a while and then wrote a letter.

The one who trains the soldiers of the Wizard Church cannot be the leader of the Wizard Church, otherwise he would have secretly trained an elite army.

The purpose of Zhao Xing's letter was to let the Song Dynasty pay attention and let the real leader of the Wizard Cult go.
