"Now that things have come to this, I'm afraid we can only fight…"
Actually, according to Di Renjie's style of doing things, even if he knew that the Thousand Bull Guards who came to deliver the decree were fake, he would not have directly and violently captured the fake Thousand Bull Guards like Zhang Dingguo. Instead, they would first see what they wanted to do before making a decision.
However, since things had come to this, he definitely wouldn't say anything more.
"Battle? What battle? Did someone dare to attack the relay station?”Li Yuan Fang asked in surprise.
"It's hard to say, but it's very likely…"
Di Renjie did not immediately explain to Li Yuanfang why. Instead, he picked up the fake imperial edict from the ground and began to read it.
He did not expect the texture to be exactly the same as the real imperial edict. He also did not neglect the ink used. He used a special tribute ink.
What was even more terrifying was that the seal on it was almost the same as a real jade seal. With one look, one could tell that it was not forged by ordinary people.
Therefore, just from this highly simulated imperial edict, it could be seen that there must be a traitor in the court, and his level should not be low!
After reading the contents of the fake imperial edict, Di Renjie began to answer Li Yuanfang's questions.
"It's obvious that these fake Thousand Bull Guards are trying to lure me and Dingguo away so that they can find a place with no one to ambush us. "Also, Yuan Fang, after Dingguo and I leave, you definitely won't stay here. You'll definitely follow us into the capital, and then they'll ambush you.
In that case, the most wanted criminal and the investigating minister of the murder of the diplomatic mission would be dead.
After that, they only needed to make some arrangements to make it look like you, Yuan Fang, led some people to pretend to be the Thousand Bull Guards and kill me and Dingguo. And if you were attacked and killed by your enemy after the matter was done, then the witness and physical evidence of this case would be gone, and it would become an unsolved case.
No matter how much others wanted to investigate, they would have no way to start. It would probably not be long before the matter was settled.
Now that they had been exposed, they would definitely put everything on the line. As long as they can kill all of us here, they can still come up with a new story to fulfill their conspiracy…"
"What a vicious plan. But can't we leave quietly?”
Li Yuan Fang really hated this group of evildoers. Not only did they cause him to lose his life several times, they even used him as a chess piece. This was really intolerable! However, he still suggested running away to avoid a direct confrontation.
Zhang Dingguo answered,""No, we have more than two hundred people in our group. We can't leave quietly. Instead of being discovered and being ambushed halfway, it was better to rely on the relay station to take the initiative to defend! Besides, you don't have to worry too much, Yuan Fang. The reason why I brought so many people to pick up Grand Elder Di this time is to prevent such a situation from happening. I dare to guarantee that as long as the villains dare to come, as long as there are less than 400 people, I can make them never return!”
For the safety of this trip, Zhang Dingguo had brought a large number of bows and crossbows, and even dozens of sets of heavy armor. For this reason, he had also brought dozens of horses and camels to transport the supplies.
No matter how fierce the Snake Spirit was, the well-equipped Thousand Bull Guards could still fight against two of them.
Coupled with the unusually brave Zhang Dingguo, this battle could be said to be in the bag.
Moreover, the Snake Spirits were at most at the level of one or two hundred people. Any more and they would be too eye-catching. Did they really think that the garrisons and officials in various places were blind?
"Dingguo is right, and even if only the few of us quietly left, the evil people might continue to attack the relay station because they did not know. If the bad guys knew that we left, we would be walking right into their trap.
In addition, the captives captured by Dingguo can also be said to be crucial witnesses in this case. We must definitely escort them to Luoyang alive. And we can't just take a few captives and leave quietly, so this battle is unavoidable.”Di Renjie added.
Since Di Renjie and Zhang Dingguo had already said so, would Li Yuanfang dare to have any more objections?
"In that case, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. Sirs, can you give me a chance to redeem myself?”Not only did Li Yuan Fang not have any objections, but he even took the initiative to request for battle. He risked his heavy injuries to kill the enemy who attacked the relay station!
This was not only to protect Lord Di (Zhang Dingguo did not need his protection), but also to avenge himself!
"Yuan Fang, can we trust you?”
"Sir, yes!"
Although Lord Di suddenly asked a very unreasonable question, Li Yuan Fang still answered with the word 'yes'. Moreover, the answer was very sincere. It didn't seem like he was lying.
In any case, if someone could act to this extent, they could only admit that they had been deceived!
In this way, after these two simple conversations, the inexplicable bond between Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang began to be established.
Zhang Dingguo also began to quietly command the troops, getting the Thousand Bull Guards to quietly get up and equip all the equipment they had brought. He had even secretly placed some of the Thousand Bull Guards with good archery skills on the surrounding high ground.
As for why they had to do it secretly and not light the fire, it was to prevent being discovered by evil people.
If he wasn't mistaken, there must be people from the Snake Spirit outside the relay station monitoring this place. If there was anything unusual, they would definitely go back and report it…
