Rebirth of the best emperor

Chapter 417
Wang Cheng and Deng Zhong had long wanted to ask about the reinforcements, but Huo Qubing had overwhelmed them, so they were afraid to ask. Now that Huo Qubing had proposed it, they hurriedly asked for advice.

Huo Qubing said with a gloomy expression: "Our Daqin has a traitor!"

One sentence changed Wang Cheng and Deng Zhong's expressions greatly, and Wang Cheng said directly: "This is impossible!"

"How is that impossible?" Huo Qubing sneered and said, "Do you know that our vanguard battalion has encountered two groups of obstacles on the way here, and an army of unknown origin launched a night attack on us, and the repeated harassment caused the army to move faster. Involuntarily slowed down, and the main force on His Majesty's side was blocked by three groups of people."

"How is this possible?" Wang Cheng couldn't help standing up and said, "Who dares to raise an army in the territory of Great Qin and hinder the imperial army from rescuing Hangu Pass? Who did it? How could this person be so bold!"

"So far, Hexi Commander Chen Hongliang and others have been identified, and a Han army entered the Qin territory from Hexi. Master Haifeng has already personally investigated thoroughly." Huo Qubing said.

"What?" Wang Cheng said loudly, "Hexi Commander Chen Hongliang, doesn't he want to live?"

"He has committed suicide." Huo Qubing said coldly: "After doing such a thing, he has no intention of living. Chen Hongliang has committed suicide, and his wife has run away. According to the preliminary investigation, there are also A spy of the Han army, otherwise the Han army would not know the marching route of the reinforcements so clearly."

"Is what General Huo said true?" Deng Zhong's expression turned cold. His ancestors were from the Yue Kingdom. After the Yue Kingdom was destroyed, they defected to the Qin Kingdom. I hate spies, now that I heard that someone in Hangu Pass dared to cooperate with the enemy, Deng Zhong couldn't sit still at that time.

"It's absolutely true!" Huo Qubing said: "Originally, I didn't want to talk about this matter, and I planned to ask Mr. Haifeng to investigate after he came, but now I heard that the guards you recruited have no intention of resisting the Han army. I am really angry , but told the two, please investigate and find out who in the city dares to cooperate with the enemy and betray the country."

"The last general will understand." Deng Zhong glanced at Wang Chengdao: "There is a general guarding the city, and the two of us can't help much. We have a request, and I hope the general will agree."

"What's the matter?" Huo Qubing asked.

"The two of us want to thoroughly investigate the collusion with the enemy in the city." Deng Zhong said with a stern face: "These bastards have lived so comfortably these years that some of them don't even know their surnames. They should be punished. It's over."

Wang Cheng said coldly: "Over the years, the general has been too lenient to them. Earlier, I thought that the assassination of the general had something to do with the people in the city. Now it seems that it is not only related, but too much related. This time If we don't investigate this matter to the bottom, I, Wang Cheng, will disarm and return to the field."

Huo Qubing nodded and said: "Since the two of you are so enthusiastic, let the two go to investigate. I will be responsible for the defense of the city. In addition, the battle in the city is urgent, so it is inconvenient for me to visit Wang Yi." General, if you two have time, please visit General Wang Yi instead of General Wang Yi, and I will visit General Wang Yi in person after this matter is over."

"Yes."

Deng Zhong and Wang Cheng agreed, and then hurried down to the city. Time is tight now, and everyone has no time to play red tape. When they arrived in the city, Wang Cheng looked at Deng Zhong and said, "Why did you take me back to the city to investigate some spies? Did my two Are people really so useless that they can't help at all?"

"It's not that I can't help, it's to avoid suspicion!" Deng Zhong explained: "The general was assassinated, and the top generals in the city are you and me. If you talk about assassinating the general or collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, we are the most suspected. The reinforcements have arrived, and it is inappropriate for the two of us to continue commanding the battle, it is better to leave early."

"No way, I think General Huo is very good, he should be a gentleman." Wang Chengdao.

"General Huo is indeed a gentleman, but General Huo is also a strong person. I don't know if you have noticed that when General Huo was speaking, none of his subordinates, including the brave and invincible Meng Huo, made a sound. , What does this mean, you should think about it yourself." Deng Zhong said.

Wang Cheng was a little puzzled, his brain was always not enough to play with these things, he thought for a long time before he could figure it out, and said, "Then what are we going to do now?"

"Of course it's to investigate the traitor." Deng Zhong said with a sullen face: "This time, our Hangu Pass guards have completely lost face, and the root cause of all this is that the general was assassinated. If the general was not assassinated, Even if the enemy army is strong, my Hangu Pass is impenetrable, and there is no way that no one in the city will cooperate with the assassination of the general, so let's start the investigation from the assassination of the general!"

"Okay." Wang Cheng nodded and said, "I also want to see who has the guts to assassinate the general."

Huo Qubing's will has been paying attention to the two of them. After seeing the discussion between the two, he led people directly to the house of the general who assassinated Wang Yi, and said, "Your Majesty, these two people should be fine from the outside."

"I also feel the same way. If there is a problem with these two people, I'm afraid Hangu Pass can't be held anymore." Wang Mang said, "Do you have confidence in the next battle?"

"Li Guang's army can reach Hangu Pass in more than an hour. If they just hold the city for more than an hour, these people are enough now." Huo Qubing said with a smile: "Although the last general is defending the city I'm not very good at the above, but the general always believes that the best defense is to attack, if the enemy dares to attack the city, the general will just defend and kill."

"It's good if you have confidence." Wang Mang looked at Han Jun. Han Jun had already withdrawn all the troops that had been defeated by Huo Qubing to the rear, and then a large formation of ten thousand people set up a formation in front of Hangu Pass. An army of [-] was prepared to attack Hangu Pass.

Standing in front of the formation, Shi Gandang said loudly: "Warriors of Daehan, our blood is hot, our weapons are cold, our hearts are loyal to the hot land of Daehan, and we are the strongest in Daehan." A warrior is a sharp blade that wipes out everything for the monarch, we are born strong and fearless, tell me, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" Countless Han Jun roared.

"Are you brave?" Shi Gandang called out.

"Brave!" Countless Han soldiers shouted.

"Are you willing to use all your strength to wash away the shame of Jia Zhu with the sharp blade in your hands?" Shi Gandang roared with all his strength.

"We are willing!" Countless Han soldiers shouted, beating the weapons in their hands.

Shi Gandang looked at the red-faced generals of the Han army, nodded in satisfaction, pointed at Hangu Pass and said, "Where is there, there are people who have brought us shame, let us wave our sharp blades and show our bravery On this land, wash away the shame with the blood of the enemy!"

Roar!
Countless Han soldiers roared wildly, following the direction of Shi Gandang's finger, they swarmed towards Hangu Pass to attack and kill them.
