Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 826: Painting Seven Suspects
Inside a large tent, Zuo Feng, Amber, and General Tao and his three deputy generals sat around the tent. Only General Tao sat in the upper position, with a layer of haze on his face that seemed to be dripping with water.
In the center of the crowd, eight bodies were neatly placed together, and they were the eight people who were killed tonight.
The entire tent was the largest tent in the camp, but the tent was not luxurious at all. Instead, every detail seemed a bit shabby, and it was not even as comfortable as Zuo Feng's tent.
A felt carpet was laid in the center of the tent, which may have been worn out because it was used for a long time. Eight chairs were placed around the felt carpet, and a handsome chair was placed in the upper position. Although it was not made of the best wood, it was generous in shape and painted black on the surface, and it looked very majestic.
On both sides of the upper case were a set of weapon racks and a very clean armor. In the back corner of the tent, a simple single wooden bed was placed there alone. This was where General Tao rested.
From the environment of the big tent, it can be seen that the commander is simple and practical, and will not pursue those flashy things, which is very consistent with Zuo Feng's initial view of him.
Everyone was silent. The three deputy generals were angry, but they did not get angry because of the presence of the commander, but they looked like they were about to curse.
Zuo Feng was relatively calm, lowering his head and seemed to be pondering something, and there was nothing special on his face. Amber's eyes sometimes fell on the eight corpses, and sometimes turned to Commander Tao. He seemed to be more concerned about what actions the commander would take in such a situation.
Commander Tao narrowed his eyes slightly, frowned slightly, and his eyes seemed to have no focus. He had not said a word since the eight corpses were carried into the tent.
Time passed slowly, and the anger of the three deputy generals slowly subsided. In the end, the three of them just kept silent, no longer as angry as before. At this time, Commander Tao coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention.
Zuo Feng's heart was slightly moved by this, and he saw that this Chief General Tao did have his own unique set of skills. Maybe some people would be in a mess because of such an unexpected event, and some people would be furious and lose their composure like the three deputy generals, but he was in control of the situation very clearly.
He knew that it was most important to be calm at this time, not only for himself, but also for the three deputy generals under him. Because he was the commander of the entire team, and the three deputy generals were directly responsible for the people below. If they could not calm down, I am afraid that there would be problems when executing orders.
He did not talk about this matter immediately, so that the three of them could judge the problem with a clear mind. A chief general with such a mind can also show that the strength of Linshan County City is not bad.
"Since the incident has happened, how should we respond next? I wonder what you think?"
Chief General Tao waited until everyone's attention turned to himself, and then he spoke slowly. These words were naturally addressed to the three deputy generals.
However, when the three deputy generals heard him ask this, they all turned their eyes to Zuo Feng at the same time. It was normal for them to react this way. Military affairs were often decided by the top brass, and the people below were usually just executing them. However, such scenes were often discussed internally, and outsiders were not allowed to participate.
But Zuo Feng was definitely not an insider. He was just the target of the escort team's protection this time. In other words, in their eyes, Zuo Feng was just many times more valuable than ordinary goods. It was obviously surprising for them to let Zuo Feng participate in the discussion.
As for the reactions of the three deputy generals, General Tao seemed to have expected it, and immediately said, "Don't underestimate Brother Shen Feng. He is very observant and I believe he must have unique insights. Although the loss this time was the brothers we brought out, I believe the target may be Brother Shen, so I also want to hear Brother Shen's opinion."
After he said this, Zuo Feng's heart moved slightly. This General Tao's mind was indeed different from that of ordinary people. Before, he seemed to be asking the three main generals, but he turned the target to himself inadvertently, and did it very smoothly without leaving any traces.
If he asked Zuo Feng at the beginning, not only would the three deputy generals have ideas, but it would also seem that the main general did not trust the three of them enough. In this way, he first asked the three deputy generals, and used their doubts to change the topic, so that it went smoothly.
Zuo Feng would never be flattered by the compliment of General Tao, but he became more cautious. He was not prepared to express his opinion immediately, but planned to talk about his ideas after everyone expressed their opinions, but now he was directly pushed out by General Tao.
However, there was one thing that General Tao said was very correct, that is, eight warriors died in this incident, and they were all people from the City Lord's Mansion, but they were also closely related to him. The last warrior who died was attacked only a few feet away from his tent, which was actually equivalent to sneaking into his nose.
The purpose of this is obvious. The target is to lock on himself, so it seems obligatory for him to participate in this matter. This is also the reason why he only found himself and did not find the other escorted Hua Qi.
Since the topic has been brought to himself, Zuo Feng will not refuse, but after sorting out his thoughts a little, he slowly spoke.
"As Commander Tao said, these people are indeed targeting me. At least everything we see now confirms their purpose. Since their target is me, my safety is also linked to you. The most important thing at the moment is for everyone to be of one mind."
Although this is nonsense, Zuo Feng must say it. These people in the army are particularly concerned about the difference in rank. They will only obey their superiors, and they almost don't care about irrelevant people. If Zuo Feng didn't say this directly, he was afraid that the three deputy generals would find it difficult to listen to what he said.
Sure enough, after he finished speaking, the three deputy generals immediately showed a listening attitude. Seeing this, Zuo Feng nodded slightly, and then continued: "Although the first dead person we found was in the camp, it is obvious that the others had been killed before that, so they were able to sneak in calmly and escape in time after being exposed."
Since it has been said, Zuo Feng is not going to hide it, and continued: "I have seen the bodies of the other seven people one by one. Their bodies are almost cold, but still slightly soft. The person who died outside my tent, his body is not only soft but also slightly warm, which means that he died the shortest time.
In addition, I have also seen the positions of the three sentries one by one. Judging from their distribution positions, The enemy has a clear purpose. After getting rid of the people at these three sentries, they can enter the camp unimpeded, which means they have opened a green channel in this iron-clad camp.
With this channel, they can not only sneak in quietly, but also withdraw from here as soon as possible if anything happens. "
After listening to Zuo Feng's analysis, one of the three commanders thought for a while and said, "So, as you said, these people came in from outside, but they are very clear about our arrangement here?"
Zuo Feng looked at the other party's unbelievable look, but nodded gently.
Seeing that the other two deputy commanders were both secretly angry, Commander Tao said, "Since Brother Shen Feng was asked to analyze the situation here, he should naturally say what he thinks. Although his opinion is not necessarily the fact, I think there must be a reason for it. "
The three deputy commanders were still a little dissatisfied, but after hearing what Commander Tao said, they swallowed the words that were about to come out. Although they didn't say it, Zuo Feng also understood what they were going to say, because the dead were their men, and they could accept outsiders sneaking in, but they couldn't accept someone inside to help.
These people have been in the army for many years, and this is not the first time they have encountered such things, so although Zuo Feng's opinions were not said explicitly, they could hear the hidden meaning.
These people sneaked in from the outside and were able to accurately grasp the location of each sentry post, and the entry and exit routes were so clear, which clearly showed that they had obtained accurate intelligence in advance.
In addition, the three sentries formed a mutual care. If only one was attacked, the other two would be discovered. If the three were attacked at the same time, it would not be realistic. If so, someone would have time to warn, but no alarm sounded, which meant that at least one of the three sentries was killed without any preparation.
This can only mean one situation, that is, someone solved at least one sentry from the inside, and someone outside cooperated with the action, so that the current situation could occur.
This situation is very reasonable, but if General Tao said it, they might have nothing to say, but it was difficult for them to accept it when Zuo Feng said it. But General Tao pushed back their words, which means that his opinion is the same as Zuo Feng's.
Zuo Feng saw that these people had stopped talking, so he slowly said: "I don't think you need to doubt your brothers, because not all people in this camp are with you."
After listening to it, the three of them looked at Zuo Feng in a daze, as if they were looking at a fool, because these words clearly said that they were suspected of participating in this matter.
General Tao's reaction was indeed faster than these deputy generals, no wonder he could be the main general. After listening to Zuo Feng's words, he immediately said: "You mean, Hua Qi."
As soon as he said this, the three deputy generals turned their eyes to General Tao.
