" I think we should report this to the imperial court," Nie Zhen said with a smile." With Wu Lanxiang's status, he will definitely be able to obtain some benefits for Daliang!"”
"That's not impossible. However, before that, can Commander Father hand Wu Lanxiang over to me for interrogation?”
"Do you want to ask about some military secrets? I think it's very difficult to get any secrets out of this old fox's mouth. This old fox can't wait to die!”Lin Xie said.
"I have my own way. Please allow me, father!”
"Naturally."
Lin Shu accepted the order. Then, the commander's tent went through a round of discussions on how to report to the imperial court. In the end, Nie Zhen drafted the report and reported the matter one by one.
In this battle, the Red Flame Army had killed more than 70,000 enemies and captured 30,000 captives. Only a few of them escaped, and they had lost less than 10,000 men. It was a complete victory. Such a victory was rare in the history of Daliang.
Lin Shu's plan to flood 30,000 enemy troops, capture the enemy's head alive, and turn the tide of the battle was even more important. Nie Zhen wrote a heavy stroke on the report to specially ask for credit for Lin Shu.
Lin Shu didn't care about this. In fact, he was even a little worried. In the plot of the previous life's Lang Ya Board, Emperor Liang killed the Red Flame Army because of his suspicion, causing the 70,000 Red Flame Army to die unjustly. In this life, he had transmigrated and the Red Flame Army had once again made such brilliant achievements. Emperor Liang's suspicion was probably even stronger and he would find it even harder to tolerate them. What he was about to face next was the real danger.
Lin Shu pondered and came to the tent where Wu Lanxiang was imprisoned.
Wu Lan Xiang was the commander of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Although he was captured, the Red Flame Army did not dare to treat him too harshly. They specially set up a tent for him to be imprisoned. However, in order to prevent Wu Lan Xiang from committing suicide, his hands were still tied up and there were several soldiers guarding him at all times.
When Lin Shu entered the tent, Wei Zheng was ordered to interrogate Wu Lan Xiang. However, Wu Lan Xiang sat there with his eyes closed and pretended to be asleep. He turned a deaf ear to Wei Zheng's question. Wei Zheng did not dare to use force on him. He was so angry that his face turned red. When he saw Lin Shu coming over, he hurriedly went up to her and said hatefully,"Young Marshal, if we don't use some force on him, it seems that we won't be able to get anything out of him!”
"Hey!" Lin Shu smiled and stopped Wei Zheng's thoughts, saying,""I admire Marshal's loyalty to the country.”
Hearing Lin Shu's voice, Wu Lanxiang, who had been silent all this time, finally opened his eyes. He glanced at Lin Shu and said indifferently,"Is Young Marshal Lin here to make a fool of me?”
"I don't dare. I just have a few things I want to verify with the marshal!" Lin Shu said lightly.”
"You're talking about the mole in the Red Flame Army, right?”Wu Lanxiang snorted and said coldly,"" I can tell you very clearly that if the Red Flame Army loses this battle, they might be able to survive. If they win, you'll be in big trouble. Not only will your Lin family die, but the entire Red Flame Army will also die!”
Lin Shu's expression turned cold. Listening to Wu Lanxiang's words, it coincided with what he knew. It seemed that although history had shifted because of his transmigration, the sword hanging over the Lin family's head had not been removed.
"Do you think that I won't be able to find out just because you don't ask or answer?”Lin Shu sneered." You underestimate me too much. Someone, remove the bed and bring me a chair. I want to talk to Commander Wu Lan all night."”
Soon, the soldiers tore off the bed in the tent and replaced it with a few chairs, trapping Wu Lanxiang firmly on the chairs.
Wu Lanxiang did not panic at all. He just looked at Lin Shu indifferently and said,"I am the commander of Northern Wei. Aren't you afraid of intensifying the conflict between the two countries by torturing me like this?”
"Northern Wei invaded our borders and killed our people. This conflict is irreconcilable. Do you still hope that our two countries will be able to reconcile?”Lin Shu sneered and called Wei Zheng over. He whispered a few words to Wei Zheng, and Wei Zheng's eyes lit up as he nodded excitedly.
Lin Shu didn't stay in the tent. She left immediately after giving her instructions.
Wei Zheng looked at Wu Lanxiang who was sitting there and smiled sinisterly."Someone, light up the lamp for me. It's too dark inside the tent. Marshal Wu Lan can't see clearly!”
Very quickly, a soldier brought a few torches and placed them inside the tent. They were placed right behind Wei Zheng and in front of Wu Lan Xiang. The glaring light of the fire in the night made him squint slightly. He grunted but did not say anything.
Wei Zheng crossed his legs and asked indifferently,"Marshal Wu Lan, who is the traitor in our army?”
"Humph!"
"Who exactly are you colluding with?"
"Do you have any unspeakable secrets?”
……
Wei Zheng tossed and turned. There were only a few questions in total, but Wu Lan Xiang was getting impatient. In the end, he closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, pretending to be asleep.
"Men, it's too lonely here. Play music for Marshal Wu Lan!”
Immediately, a few soldiers came in with suona and copper gongs.
"Bang!" A loud sound suddenly rang in Wu Lan Xiang's ear, making his eyelids twitch in anger. He frowned, but he still closed his eyes tightly and turned a deaf ear.
"It's almost autumn. It's a little cold in this tent. Add two braziers for Marshal Wu Lan and put them closer. Don't freeze him!”
Two braziers that were burning red were placed beside Wu Lan Xiang. It was summer, and it did not take long for Wu Lan Xiang to be covered in sweat.
