Before dawn, the battle had already ended.
More than ten thousand soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield.
Under the cover of the night, Gan Ning led a group of soldiers to press Xu Gong down in front of Sun Jian.
"My lord, I did not fail my mission and have captured Xu Gong.”
At this moment, Sun Jian was sitting on a tree stump with his generals standing behind him.
Gan Ning clasped his fist and laughed.
"Hahaha... Xing Ba is indeed incomparably brave!"
Laughing, he walked over to Gan Ning, his face filled with joy as he looked at the bloody figure.
If defeating Xu Gong in this battle was a pleasant surprise, then it was a good thing.
If Gan Ning really did capture Xu Gong, that would be a pleasant surprise!
This battle proved that Gan Ning was a fierce general!
Moreover, he was the kind of fierce general who was not afraid of death in order to achieve his goal!
Obtaining such a fierce general was far more pleasant than defeating Xu Gong.
After examining Gan Ning for a while, he patted Gan Ning's muscular shoulder.
"How is it? Are you hurt?"
Gan Ning grinned.
"My lord, don't worry. Ning is fine. This is someone else's blood!”
"Good!"
When Sun Jian heard this, he quickly smiled and said,"
"The Prosperous Domination Fruit is a brave man!"
As he spoke, he turned around and smiled at Sun Ce and the other generals,"
"Before the battle, the military counselor had already said that the person who captured Xu Gong would be the first to win this battle. Then, Xing Ba would be the first to win this battle.”
Although his words were directed at the generals, his gaze was directed at Sun Ce.
What he meant was that he was afraid that Sun Ce would have any thoughts.
After all, Sun Ce had been the one to capture Xu Gong, but Gan Ning had taken the lead.
Whether it was from a father's or lord's perspective, he had to care about Sun Ce's thoughts.
However, it was obvious that Sun Jian had underestimated his son's tolerance.
Upon hearing Sun Jian's words, before the generals could say anything, Sun Ce cupped his hands and said,"
"Father is right!"
"General Gan is so brave and brave.”
As Sun Ce spoke, the generals naturally cupped their hands, indicating that they had no objections.
First of all, he had no objections in his heart. In fact, he had no objections!
Anyone who saw Gan Ning like this would give him a thumbs up!
The generals were convinced by Gan Ning's words.
This thief really had the capital to be arrogant!
However, Gan Ning felt a little embarrassed by the generals 'reaction. He rubbed his head awkwardly and smiled at Sun Jian.
"Lord, let's not talk about the merits first. How should we deal with Lord Xu Gong?”
As he spoke, he pointed at Xu Gong, who was already in a daze.
Sun Jian glanced at Xu Gong, whose face was pale from the blood, and said with a look of disdain,"
"Let's not care about it for now. Let the military counselor deal with it!”
To be honest, if Baili Ming had not warned Xu Gong, he would have killed every traitor he saw!
However, he did not expect Baili Ming's leisurely voice to ring out from behind him as soon as he finished speaking.
"My lord, what is Ming here to deal with?”
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound and saw that Baili Ming and Zhou Yu were already slowly walking towards them under the protection of a group of guards.
Seeing this, the generals cupped their hands and said,"
"Greetings, Military Advisor!"
When Sun Jian saw this, he smiled and said,"
"Ruo Zhong, you came at the right time. Xing Ba has already captured Xu Gong!”
"Tell me, how do we deal with this person?”
"I see!"
Baili Ming smiled as expected. He walked closer and glanced at Xu Gong before turning to Gan Ning.
"Not bad, you caught me a live one!”
Gan Ning's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He couldn't help but think back to how he'd looked before and feel ashamed.
Amidst his guilt, he felt a wave of gratitude. He cupped his hands and said,
"It's all thanks to the military counselor's trust!"
"I would rather remember your kindness for rebirth!”
"What nonsense are you talking about? What kindness do I have for you?”
Baili Ming smiled and imitated Sun Jian's punch on Gan Ning's arm. He then walked over to Xu Gong and said,
"You are Xu Gong?"
Although Xu Gong looked like he was in a daze, he had heard what everyone had said. When he saw Baili Ming step forward, his eyes revealed a trace of malice.
"You are Baili Ming?"
"Was all of this your plan?"
Before Baili Ming could say anything, Gan Ning glared at Xu Gong.
"How dare you! How dare you be rude to the military counselor!"
It was as if Xu Gong would be killed on the spot if he said another word.
His fierce appearance immediately scared Xu Gong so much that he stopped talking.
"It's fine. Let him speak!"
Baili Ming waved his hand to stop Gan Ning.
He knew that Xu Gong most likely knew his fate, which was why he asked this question.
It just so happened that he had something to ask Xu Gong, so he might as well let Xu Gong say it!
With this thought in mind, he smiled at Xu Gong and said,"
"Continue!"
Faced with Baili Ming's actions, the fear on Xu Gong's face faded a little. He then continued to ask,
"You guys actually broke through Pill Sun a long time ago, right?”
"That silk book was also your plan!”
"You were the ones who attacked Yan Baihu's camp last night, right?”
"But I don't understand why you would ambush me on the road!”
"Moreover, how did you know that it would be me who came to help, and even specially set up an ambush to capture me alive?”
The series of questions had already voiced out all the doubts in his heart.
This was also the question he had been thinking about after his defeat.
He couldn't understand. Even if everything that happened before was Baili Ming's scheme, how could he explain what happened after that!
They had set up an ambush halfway to capture him alive. It was as if they knew all his information and thoughts.
It was almost specially designed for him!
If he was Sheng Xian, it would be fine, but he was just a nobody.
Why would Baili Ming do this for him?
Why was that?
As the number one strategist under Sun Jian, he naturally knew Baili Ming's name.
Not only did he know, but he also went to find out about Baili Ming's deeds.
He had thought that he was already immune to Baili Ming.
However, when Baili Ming's plan was really used on him, he realized that he could not understand it at all!
He couldn't figure out why all of this was happening!
However, what Xu Gong did not realize was that…
As he asked these questions, the generals looked at him with a trace of pity in their eyes.
They had been following Baili Ming all this while, so they naturally knew the cause and effect of all this.
Of course, he also knew the answers to Xu Gong's questions.
However, the more they knew about this, the more they could understand Xu Gong's current feelings.
Therefore, they looked at Xu Gong in front of them and felt very pitiful!
In this pity, everyone looked at Baili Ming, waiting for him to reply.
As everyone looked over, Baili Ming shook his head and smiled."
"I can't be bothered to answer these questions.”
"However, not only do I know this, I also know that you are preparing to ask for external help to deal with our army.”
"It's a pity that this request for help hasn't been sent out yet, right?”
"How did you know?"
When Xu Gong heard this, his face immediately revealed an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
"How did you know that I was going to ask for help?”
"How do you know that my request for help hasn't been sent yet?”
If the questions he had just now were questions, then the questions he had now were filled with fear.
Xu Gong even suspected that Baili Ming had planted spies in his house to monitor his every move!
Otherwise, how would she know that there was an unsent letter of help from his family!
When the generals behind Baili Ming heard this, they were all shocked.
What was going on?
A few hours ago, the military counselor said that he wanted to ask Xu Gong if he had sent out the letter of request for help.
He had not even asked Xu Gong yet, and he already knew the result?
Could it be that the military counselor knew demonic spells?
However, under their shocked gazes, Baili Ming stood up and said,"
"Alright, since you don't know anything, then it's useless!”
"Men, drag this person away!”
"Yes!"
When the soldiers heard this, they hurriedly dragged Xu Gong down.
However, Xu Gong's eyes were still wide open as he kept shouting,
"Baili Ming, tell me!"
"Why is that?"
"Why is all of this happening?"
"I'm not leaving. Tell me, tell me!!!”
Amidst the shouts, his figure disappeared into the distance.
When Xu Gong's figure disappeared, Baili Ming turned around and smiled. He looked at everyone and said,"
"Alright, this Xu Gong is finally settled!”
"Don't, Military Advisor!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zu Mao said with a dumbfounded expression,
"Didn't you want to ask Xu Gong a question?”
"Why are you done asking?"
"You didn't even ask!"
"That's right!"
Sun Jian also frowned and said,
"Ruo Zhong, since you already know the answers, why did you waste so much effort to capture Xu Gong alive?”
When the generals heard this, they looked at Baili Ming in surprise.
When Baili Ming saw this, he immediately shook his head and smiled."
"What's wrong with everyone? How did I know about these things?”
"You don't know?"
Zu Mao hurriedly said,"
"But didn't you say you knew?”
"And Xu Gong admitted it!”
"And what he admitted was exactly the same as what you said, Military Advisor!”
When the generals heard this, they were also puzzled for a moment.
"That's right!"
"Didn't you say it yourself just now?”
"So everyone is asking about this!"
Hearing this, Baili Ming could not help but smile bitterly. He glanced at Zhou Yu and said,"
"How about Gongjin answer for me?"
When Zhou Yu heard this, he pondered for a while before smiling."
"I understand. Was Mister bluffing Xu Gong just now? Right?"
"Advisor Jun knows that if you ask directly, Xu Gong might be hiding something. Instead, he might be using deception. You can easily determine the answer through Xu Gong's reaction!”
"Correct!"
Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Baili Ming nodded and smiled,"
"Gongjin really understands me!"
After saying that, he smiled at everyone and said,
"Do you understand now?"
"I was bluffing Xu Gong just now!”
"Unfortunately, this person's thoughts are already in a mess. He didn't even need to trick anyone to tell the answer himself!”
"Ah, this…"
At this moment, as the answer was revealed, the generals were stunned again.
So the truth was that simple?
So the military counselor didn't know anything and was just guessing?
As for Xu Gong, he did not realize it just like them, but he told them the answer?
When the generals thought of this, their minds were in a mess. They could not help but look in the direction Xu Gong had left.
Hearing the faint shouts coming from afar, he felt even more pity.
This Xu Gong was too pitiful!
From the beginning to the end, even his underwear was worn by the military counselor!
However, what they did not know was that other than Xu Gong, there was another person who was even more dejected than Xu Gong.
...
Wu County, County Governor's Mansion.
Sheng Xian, who hadn't slept for the whole night, sat at his table, facing a general whose face was charred black and who had just returned from defeat.
This general was the Wu County Tooth General, Zhang Ying.
At this moment, Zhang Ying was crying to Sheng Xian with a sad face,"
County Governor, our army has suffered a crushing defeat!"
"We were on the way to White Tiger Mountain with Commandant Xu when a group of tens of thousands of people suddenly appeared!”
"Our army was caught off guard and was ambushed by the enemy!”
"Other than the hundreds of soldiers that I brought out, the entire army was annihilated!”
Amidst his tears, he bowed and said,"
"County Governor, from the looks of the enemy, I'm afraid that Sun Jian has already led his troops here!”
"If our army doesn't react soon, I'm afraid that Sun Jian's army will arrive at the city gates tomorrow!”
"Governor, please make a decision quickly!"
"Sun Jian is here…Sun Jian is here!"
Hearing Zhang Ying's words, Sheng Xian looked as if he had aged ten years. He stared at Zhang Ying blankly and said,"
"What about Xu Fengshan?"
Zhang Ying had just escaped from the battle and did not notice the change in Sheng Xian's tone. Hearing this, he cried again,"
"I didn't see Commandant Xu!"
"However, since he hasn't returned yet, I'm afraid he's already dead!”
"Xu Gong is also dead?"
Sheng Xian muttered with an ugly expression,"
"It's good that he's dead. It's peaceful to die!"
"But it's good that you're dead. What do you want me to do?”
At this point, he lowered his head weakly and said,
"Forget it, you can leave!"
"The county governor?"
When Zhang Ying heard this, he immediately raised his head and said in surprise,
"Sun Jian is here. What should we do?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Sheng Xian suddenly raised his head and shouted angrily,
"I told you to get down!"
"Can't you hear me?"
" Get out!!!"
His words seemed to contain endless anger.
Like a tiger or leopard biting people, his eyes gave Zhang Ying a fright.
At this moment, Zhang Ying finally realized that something was wrong with Sheng Xian. He did not dare to stay any longer and hurriedly cupped his hands.
"Then, this subordinate will take his leave!"
As he spoke, he stood up and quickly left the hall.
After Zhang Ying left, the entire hall fell silent.
In this dark moment where dawn was about to arrive.
Sheng Xian stared blankly at Zhou Xin's request for help on the table. He suddenly revealed a strange smile and said,"
"Fake, everything is fake!"
"You're all lying to me!"
"You're all lying to me!"
As he spoke, he lowered his head and looked at the sword at his waist.
As if he had made a decision, he suddenly pulled it out and slashed it at his neck.
As blood splattered out, the entire prefect's manor was dyed red.
