Ling Tong understood that although Sun Quan had been defeated repeatedly, he had encountered Liu Ke's main force.
Actually speaking, the strength of his subordinates is not bad, but it is Liu Ke who is so difficult to deal with.
If we encounter ordinary forces, it is still unclear who will win and who will lose.
Therefore, in the face of such a situation, Ling Tong still recommends being cautious to avoid mistakes.
Under his explanation, Taishi Ci nodded and said: "I have just arrived, since Gongji knows Sun Quan's strength.
Then just follow the public performance plan! I wonder if you have any clever ideas? "
Before Ling Tong could say anything, suddenly a soldier hurried in and said breathlessly: "General, general, someone from Sun Quan's camp is here!"
Hearing the news, Ling Tong and Tai Shici were instantly shocked.
Especially Ling Tong, whose expression suddenly changed and he said to himself: "Is it possible that Sun Quan already knows what happened in the city?
Are you sending people now to investigate? "
However, Tai Shici remained calm and asked quickly: "Who is coming? How many people are there? Did you say what they were doing?"
Three questions in a row stunned the soldier.
The other party sorted out his thoughts before finally saying: "Two generals, only one high official and a few followers are here.
They didn¡¯t say what it was about. They just said they wanted to see the highest official in the city and that they had important instructions. "
After hearing this, Taishi Ci breathed a sigh of relief.
He hurriedly comforted Ling Tong and said: "Don't worry about public performance. It seems that he is not here to raise an army to investigate the crime, but has other things.
It¡¯s possible that the other party doesn¡¯t know what happened in the city before, or else it¡¯s better to ask Gongxu to go see him first.
We will listen behind the screen. If the other party has any evil intentions, it will not be too late to take action! "
Hearing Tai Shici¡¯s words, Ling Tong had no choice but to nod his head and said: ¡°That¡¯s all we can do now, it¡¯s not too late to find out the truth first and then break the relationship.
Gongxu, I¡¯d like you to continue pretending to be Wu Ming and receive the visitors in person. "
Luo Tong nodded and immediately went out to greet him cautiously.
The visitor, Zhang Xuan, turned out to be sent by Sun Quan to urge for food, grass and weapons.
Zhang Xuan was drinking tea and waiting in the living room when he suddenly saw a man coming out from outside, claiming to be Wu Ming, the general in charge here, and he couldn't help but frowned.
"Before my lord left, he clearly handed over the city to Ding Fan, but when did it change to you?"
Luo Tong hurriedly explained: "Sir, in fact, the last general was the guard of the public security city. Later, after the lord came, he naturally sent Lord Ding Fan to take over the city defense.
"However, Master Ding Fan has encountered an unexpected event recently, so the lower official can only take up this position temporarily. "
Although Henry Zhang did not have a deep friendship with Ding Fan, he was still a little shocked when he heard the news.
"After all, this is not on the front line of Jiang'an. We are all in the rear, so what could happen?"
Luo Tong knew that all the officers and soldiers in the city had seen this, so there was no point in lying anymore, so he simply told the truth.
So he immediately told the story of how Ding Fan and his soldiers robbed the food and grass of passing merchants, but were killed by the other party's guards.
"It's just that when telling the story, he deliberately concealed Taishi Ci's request for the city from the other party.
So in his mouth, it became that Ding Fan relied on his official position to deliberately bully the other party, and resorted to plundering when he failed to buy.
In the end, the other party had no choice but to fight back. Ding Fan, a scholar, was naturally no match for the traveling merchants. In the chaos, he was eventually stabbed to death.
Although Ding Fan did die like this, only Luo Tong, Tai Shici and others knew the specific details.
The personal guards brought by Ding Fan had all been killed on the spot, and even the man who went back to report the news disappeared quietly after Ling Tong took over the public security.
So the specifics of what happened outside the city that day became a matter of Luo Tong¡¯s family.
However, his words did not arouse Henry Zhang¡¯s suspicion.
Instead, the other party nodded and said regretfully: "Alas! Ding Fan always likes to bully others, and he caused a lot of quarrels in the army.
But for the sake of being a colleague, everyone has never met him in the same way.
Who would have thought that the other party would go even further and provoke the passing merchants. Those merchants now dare to travel all over the country, how could they not do it for a while?
So it is not unexpected that we are in such trouble now. On the contrary, it was already destined.
Since General Wu has the courage to take over the overall situation here after Ding Fan's death, there is no harm in talking to the general about this matter!
"As long as the general can complete the lord's mission this time, I will definitely recommend your contribution in front of the lord!" "
Luo Tong hurriedly pretended to be grateful after hearing this, but in fact he was a little grateful.
It¡¯s just that what I¡¯m grateful for is not that the other party recommended me, but that the other party could expose Ding Fan¡¯s murder so easily.
¡°After all, no matter what, Ding Fan is the highest official here. Even if something unexpected happens, he must get to the bottom of it.
However, when the other party revealed the matter, he was happy to see the result, so he immediately took the initiative to change the topic.
"I wonder what mission the general has brought? As long as the subordinate can complete it, he will definitely be ruined!"
Seeing that the other party was so sincere, Zhang Xuan stopped talking in circles and immediately put forward Sun Quan's request.
It turns out that Sun Quan has been confronting Gan Ning and Zhang Liao on the bank of the river these days, although it has not yet led to a decisive battle.
But the consumption of food, grass and arrows is increasing day by day, and those brought before have been exhausted. This time we want the Public Security City to transport another batch.
"In fact, whether it is Sun Quan or Zhang Xuan, all they care about is food, grass and arrows.
As for whether Ding Fan is there or not, it doesn't matter. As long as Luo Tong can fulfill this request, they will certainly not criticize him too much.
Luo Tong was a little relieved when he heard the demand. After all, these were all things he could complete.
But when the other party reported the amount, he felt a little embarrassed.
So, he said solemnly: "Sir, you also know that this is not a small amount of money.
The food and grass are okay, and there is still some inventory in the city, but the arrows are not enough. I am afraid it will take a few days to replenish them. "
Henry Zhang couldn¡¯t help but frowned after hearing this, and said with some displeasure: ¡°General Wu, I have given you this opportunity.
If you can¡¯t grasp it, there may be people lining up behind you! "
Luo Tong wanted to say something else, but suddenly he turned his head and saw Ling Tong sticking his head out from behind and said softly to him: "Promise him!"
But in order to worry about Henry Zhang hearing it, he just mouthed the words without making a sound, and at the same time, he made a defensive gesture of three with his hands.
Fortunately, Luo Tong had been with Ling Tong for a long time and was very familiar with him. He understood what he meant at a glance.
So, Luo Tong immediately turned around and spoke. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
