Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 361: Jiang Biao Tiger Minister! (Thanks to my brother Dan Weijun for the small reward~~)
Looking at Zhang Ren, half of his body was gone, Lu Bu was stunned.

After a long pause, he looked up at Zhang Liao and Li Yan in confusion:
"You two are mourning over the enemy general?"

Although he knew it was inappropriate, Zhang Liao couldn't help but twitch his lips, and then said seriously:
"We are not mourning for the enemy general. We are just thinking about how to report this to you..."

As he spoke, Zhang Liao suddenly knelt down on his knees and told the whole story:
"…That's how it is. It's all my fault for failing to do my duty. My Lord, please punish me!"

As he said that, Zhang Liao smashed his head directly to the ground, hitting the ground heavily.

Seeing this, Li Yan also prostrated himself.

After all, in his opinion, he was not able to stop Zhang Ren, which led to General Chen Wu being forced to die with Zhang Ren, and he was also responsible...

Lu Bu looked at the two people kneeling in front of him, with a hint of anger in his heart.

Of course, he was not angry with Zhang Liao, nor would he blame Li Yan who had tried his best.

Because he has captured a very important issue:

"There are some spies in our army!"

He had previously felt that it was a bit strange that Zhuge Liang knew everything so well.

Later, Chen Deng lurked in his army as a spy.

This shows that most of Zhuge Liang's information may have come from the reports of these spies he planted in various forces.

At that time, Chen Deng's identity as a spy was exposed, and Lu Bu wondered whether there might be more spies in the army.

Judging from what happened this time, his worries were not unfounded.

Obviously there are enemy spies hiding in the army, and their status should be quite high!
Of course, some of the soldiers were definitely spies, and they had obviously received professional training.

Once their existence is exposed, they will immediately disappear...

Listening to Lu Bu's words, Zhang Liao stood up and said in agreement:

"That's true. If the spy hadn't secretly sent away the 500 soldiers guarding the trail and my 5,000 troops.

"Zhang Ren has no chance to attack the village."

Lu Bu sighed slightly:

"But it is very difficult to find the spies hiding in our army."

After all, a smart spy will never reveal his whereabouts easily.

Only at particularly critical moments will they suddenly strike and deliver the most deadly blow!

If you want to catch the spy, you can only find another good way...

Lu Bu didn't think much about this matter for the time being, and immediately asked the two:
"Where is General Chen Wu?"

Zhang Liao's face turned serious and he quickly replied:

"The military doctors are still treating General Chen Wu. He is seriously injured. I don't know if he can make it..."

Lu Bu sighed deeply, and said helplessly and with emotion:
"If Zilie hadn't stepped forward this time, our army would have lost all the gunpowder jars we brought with us.

“By then, it will be difficult for our army to capture Luo County and advance into Chengdu in a short period of time.

"If Zilie doesn't make it, I will punish you, Wenyuan, for your serious crimes! Can you accept that?"

Zhang Liao sincerely bowed:

"Liao, I am willing to accept any punishment!"

Looking at Zhang Liao who had no temper at all, Lu Bu sighed secretly.

Zhang Liao is only 27 years old now, and he is much more mature than when he first joined him.

However, compared with the historical level of 800 troops fighting 100,000 in the Battle of Hefei, there is still a big gap.

However, Lu Bu knew that people will always improve and grow through failure.

It was naturally impossible for him to severely punish a general like Zhang Liao who had such high growth potential.

After all, Zhang Liao was already 47 years old during the Battle of Hefei.

His skills are twenty years behind what they are now, so naturally he is not as good as he was then.

But Lu Bu also hopes to take this opportunity to leave a deep impression on the other party! Lu Bu turned his head to look at Li Yan and said lightly:
“Li Hujun, although you failed to stop Zhang Ren from attacking the rear camp, you have done your best to command the soldiers to delay time for Wen Chang.

"I will not hold you accountable."

Li Yan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly knelt down to express his gratitude.

"Both of you please get up. There are still matters to be dealt with in the army. You two should go and handle them for me first."

Zhang Liao and the other two responded and immediately got up and left.

Lu Bu went straight to a tent and saw the busy military doctor inside through the gap in the tent.

He looked away reluctantly.

When gunpowder was first produced, he was worried that one day it would be seized by the enemy and used to kill his own people.

I didn't expect this day to come so soon...

Although he could try to make more thermal weapons, these weapons would not work all the time.

Once it is taken away by the enemy in some way, it will undoubtedly pose a huge threat to our own soldiers!
So after this batch of black gunpowder was used up, Lu Bu felt it necessary to reduce production and produce it as needed.

If you store too much, it will always be a hidden danger...

Lu Bu had been waiting outside the tent for a long time, until a military doctor came out of the tent, and then he asked hurriedly:

"How is General Chen?"

The military doctor's expression was obviously much more relaxed, and he bowed to Lu Bu and said:
"My lord, General Chen's life has been saved for now!
"But his arms and legs are both seriously injured. I'm afraid he may not be able to survive..."

When Lu Bu heard this, his heart, which had just been at ease, was lifted up again.

But he also knew that it was a blessing to survive after detonating a gunpowder jar at close range.

But living without hands and feet is also a torment.

Lu Bu could only instruct the military doctor:
"We must do our best to save General Chen's hands and feet!
"It doesn't matter even if he can't carry weight or do anything in the future, at least we have to ensure his body is intact..."

The military doctor looked embarrassed, but he knew he could only nod and not shake his head.

Lu Bu and a group of military doctors spent that night in agony.

Before I knew it, the morning light was dim.

Lu Bu, who had been sleeping lightly for two hours in the tent next door, suddenly opened his eyes.

After a quick wash, he walked out of the tent and saw Zhang Liao, who looked tired, directing his men to continue working.

Looking at Zhang Liao's heavy dark circles, Lu Bu knew that he had not rested all night.

After a moment's silence, he turned around and went to visit Chen Wu in the next tent.

I hope this "tiger minister of Jiangbiao" will not die at his own hands...

Lu Bu opened the tent and found that there was only a military doctor left in the tent, who was dozing beside Chen Wu.

His footsteps did not wake up the military doctor. It was obvious that the military doctor had been busy all night and was quite tired.

Lu Bu did not wake him up, but walked slowly to Chen Wu's side and saw the man lying on the ground, almost completely wrapped in medical cloth.

At this moment, Chen Wu had no injuries on the front of his body except for a few areas on his abdomen.

The rest of his body, especially his arms and legs, was wrapped in thick medical bandages.

This kind of medicated cloth was jointly invented by doctors such as Lu Bu and Zhang Zhongjing, and has excellent healing effects on external injuries.

But I don’t know if I can bring some help to Chen Wu right now…

Looking at Chen Wu's slightly rising and falling chest, Lu Bu knew that Chen Wu's life should be saved.

Next, it depends on whether his body can recover its most basic functions...

Lu Bu sighed and shook his head.

When he was about to quietly leave the tent, Chen Wu, who had been unconscious all night, suddenly opened his eyes as if he had sensed something...
