Laozi of the Three Kingdoms is the Emperor

Chapter 228 God's Will!

Xu Chu, who didn't listen to Cao Ren's words at first, became even more ignorant of Cao Ren's earnest words after he got such a secret.

more importantly.

The more Cao Ren was like this, the more disgusted Xu Chu would be!
Just like this moment.

Xu Chu was already extremely impatient, but Cao Ren was still expressing his opinion from the sidelines.

"You go back to your big tent right now. Without the general's order, don't take a step out of the big tent. This is the last time the general will warn you. If the general sees you appearing in other places again, don't go out." Blame this will not be polite!"

After leaving these words, Xu Chu took another serious look at Cao Ren, then turned around and left.

His patience with Cao Ren has reached the extreme... If the other party still wants to provoke him, he doesn't mind letting him know about him!
"I'm really looking for a dead end..." Seeing Xu Chu's leaving back, Cao Ren muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.

After reprimanding Cao Ren, Xu Chu quickly returned to his tent and summoned the guards who had captured Ding Li.

"Where did you catch Ding Li?" Xu Chu placed a map in front of the guards.

"here!"

One of the guards just glanced at the map, then pointed to a place on it and said with certainty.

then.

He will grasp all the details of Ding Li again and tell Xu Chu in detail.

According to Xu Chu's request, especially the part where they found out that the other party was giving each other things, the world explained it in great detail.

Combining what Ding Li said before, Xu Chu can now be sure that the secret mission performed by the other party is to escort the saltpeter for making ice cubes!

And what he has to do now... is to snatch some back at all costs!
Now for Xu Chu, capturing Luoyang is not only the most important task.

The most important thing at the moment is to do everything possible to collect some saltpeter. As long as everything that Ding Li said before is true, Xu Chu will not only be able to get the credit for capturing Luoyang!
After confirming the specific place, without any hesitation, Xu Chu immediately led hundreds of people in person, and quickly headed towards the place the guards had mentioned.

According to the other party, Ding Li and the others only had a few dozen people to carry out the mission, which meant that the other party did not send many people to carry out the mission for the sake of concealment.

That's why Xu Chu wanted to go immediately!

Once the other party finds out that there is one less person performing the task, the other party will probably stop their actions immediately.

At that time... His chances will be completely gone!
Facts have proved that Xu Chu's worries are right!
When he led people quickly to the place where Ding Li was captured, there was no one there, and judging from the traces at the scene, Ding Li and the others seemed to be the last group of people to carry out the mission.

"It seems that we are late..." The guard leading the way sighed.

Why didn't he want to bring Xu Chu here, and immediately catch the person who continued to perform the task.

In that case, his contribution will be many times greater than it is now!
"Whether it's late or not, we have to wait here! I didn't believe that the other party wouldn't send someone to look for Ding Li!" Xu Chu's expression showed a trace of determination.

With such a great opportunity in front of him, he would never allow it to disappear like this.

I don't know if it's Xu Chu's luck, or it's just a coincidence.

Less than a quarter of an hour after they came here, there was suddenly a dense sound of horseshoes not far away. Judging from the sound, it was a horse team!
"coming!"

Excitement appeared on Xu Chu's face, and he pointed in a direction and whispered.

same.

The guard next to him also had a smile on his face. As long as they can successfully complete the task today, according to Xu Chu's character, he will definitely get a lot of rewards from the other party after returning!
Soon.

Two carriages appeared in Xu Chu's sight.

This time.

There were even fewer guards escorting the carriage...there were less than ten people in the two carriages!

"Is this what you saw before?" Xu Chu asked in a low voice, looking at the guard beside him.

"Yes! That's it!" The guard suppressed the excitement in his heart and nodded vigorously.

"Okay!" The corners of Xu Chu's mouth rose slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.

When the two carriages were less than ten feet away from their ambush, Xu Chu suddenly turned his head. Immediately, dozens of soldiers hiding around quickly appeared and surrounded the two carriages at a speed that could not be concealed. !
From appearing to surrounding the carriage, they only took a few breaths of time.

Before the guards guarding the carriage could even react, they were already surrounded!
With his hands behind his back, Xu Chu calmly and slowly came to the front of the two carriages.

With a light wave of their hands, several of the soldiers surrounding them stepped forward, tied up the guards, and escorted them aside.

"What is this?" Xu Chu patted the sackcloth bags on the carriage, and turned to look at the sturdy guards who were tied up with a smile.

"We... we are all honest people, but... we just want to take some stones back from the mountain... you... why are you arresting us?"

One of the bound guards put on a very pitiful look and asked in Xu Chu's trembling voice.

"Hahahaha..."

Xu Chu and the guard beside him looked at each other, looked up to the sky and burst out laughing.

"Honest people? This ship has to take a look at you honest people... What kind of stone is it transporting!"

After speaking.

Xu Chu directly pulled out the dagger that he carried with him, and slashed at a linen bag on the carriage.

"Ding……"

There was a clear sound of collision, and the dagger encountered great resistance.

and.

Through the torn sack, Xu Chu could indeed see the stones inside.

"See...these are just stones, we..." Before the guard who spoke before could finish, he saw Xu Chu turn around with a strange smile and look at him seriously.

"If you didn't pull stones... I wouldn't have wanted it!" Xu Chu waved his hand forward, and the soldiers who followed him immediately escorted the two carriages and brought the guards towards them. Go to their barracks.

Xu Chu didn't expect that...his luck was surprisingly good. He wanted to get saltpeter to prove Ding Li's statement, and he just got two carriages right after he led the troops out!
According to those scholar-bureaucrats...all this is God's will!
