Chapter 516 ?????? The Person Behind

Chapter 516 - The Man Behind

Ten days later.

When Ouyang Lixing was facing Cheng Hong's surprise attack, Chen Ze and Luo Zongbing had already seen the tall city wall of Bo'an City.

After walking away for several months, and returning at this time, not only Chen Ze, but even Mr. Luo, who is used to traveling around the mountains and rivers, felt as if he had passed away at this moment.

The battle in Nantes Province was really exhausting. Chen Ze, as the weakest of the several forces, had been restrained and popular from the very beginning of the war.

Fortunately, he was not discouraged, but worked hard to find a way of life that was so narrow that it was almost impossible to pass, and walked out step by step.

When he left, he was still persecuted by Zheng Yuanyun, and he was not forced to do anything when he went to Nantes Province.

But come back now.

That incomparably powerful Zheng Yuanyun never even looked him in the eye, so that most of his actions to restrict Chen Ze were just incidental.

In other words, Zheng Yuanyun actually didn't take Chen Ze seriously at all. To him, Chen Ze was just a weak ant from a humble background who could be crushed to death by his finger at any time.

Even though Chen Ze had Luo Zongbing to help him later, Zheng Yuanyun also believed that even Luo Zongbing would not be able to protect anyone he wanted to get rid of on the three acres of land in Anluo Province.

If one fails, he can even kill Zongbing Luo!

This is Zheng Yuanyun's confidence.

It was precisely because of such confidence that Zheng Yuanyun made a big mistake.

He didn't take Chen Ze seriously at all, and he didn't realize it until his death. The culprit who deduced all this behind his back and finally led to his defeat was this low-ranking general from a humble background that he had always looked down on!

If there is a soul after death, when Zheng Yuanyun, who has gone to the underworld, knows that all of this is through the hands of Chen Ze, he is finally defeated by a person he doesn't even look down on, how should he feel?

Of course, now no one knows whether the dead Zheng Yuanyun will have any thoughts, at least the current Chen Ze is not in the mood to dig into Zheng Yuanyun's thoughts before he died.

Bo'an City was approaching, and General Luo was finally relieved. The ambush that he had been worrying about for a long time did not come, and he really returned to Bo'an City safely.

Can't help but glance at Chen Ze.

Along the way, he seemed to be the only one who was worried.

"You boy, did you already know this would happen?"

Recalling his cautiousness, Luo Zongbing himself felt a little inexplicably wanting to laugh, did he become less timid as he got older?

Actually not.

It's just that during the trip to Nantes province, Zongbing Luo had a deep insight into all kinds of intrigues. Without realizing it, he was also used to thinking about everything in the worst possible way.

As a result, Chen Ze himself, who made such an argument, acted like a normal person along the way, and did not see any worry on Chen Ze's face.

He didn't know that Chen Ze was not unprepared, but had already let Gu Qingfeng and the other five out. With them investigating from the outside, Chen Ze certainly knew that there was no ambush around, and there was nothing unusual about it.

Gu Qingfeng and the other five's detection skills are not inferior to Chen Ming's. What's more, in addition to their detection, Chen Ze can also use the God's perspective provided by the system to observe near his confidants.

So of course he knew very well that the journey was very peaceful, so what expression could he have?

Faced with President Luo's question, Chen Ze naturally couldn't say that I had seen it long ago, so he smiled and said, "I don't think that General Cheng's expression seems to be fake, and he didn't lie to us, so he relaxed his mind." A little bit, not to mention..."

The two were already getting along very well, and Chen Ze also felt a little joking, winked at Zongbing Luo and said, "Isn't the lord Zongbing watching this all the time, I have the right to be lazy."

"You boy!"

Zongbing Luo shook his head helplessly, he didn't mean to blame Chen Ze, but felt very comforted in his heart.

As for the reason for his consolation...

"Master Chief Soldier, Young Master, someone from Bo'an City has come out!"

The person who reported was Chen Ming. After returning from Ouyang Lixing, he went back to his old job, and he was the only person in charge of scouting in this team on the surface.

"Boan City?"

Chen Ze glanced forward, they were very close to Bo'an City at this moment, and in the blink of an eye, he saw a group of people coming out of Bo'an City, looking at their direction, they were coming towards him.

Not long after Chen Ming reported, everyone could see that the team of people coming from the direction of Bo'an City was about a hundred people.

Although the number of people is small, there are even fewer of them here, only twenty or thirty people.

Zongbing Luo and Chen Ze looked at each other, and Zongbing Luo asked in confusion, "It's really him?"

It really is him.

At the beginning, when Cheng Hong came to Xilong City, he proposed that he could switch defenses with Luo Zongbing, and he would be stationed in Xilong City to confront Ouyang Lixing.

When the other party's fraud was ruled out, Mr. Luo kept thinking about who was behind his back to help him, or Chen Ze.

Therefore, after going through his network, Mr. Luo suspected that he had fallen in love with someone.

That person is Hua Lao.

If it is possible to get a general to do this drudgery willingly, then the military rank of the person behind it is probably not low.

At least it must be a general or chief soldier at the same level as Cheng Hong, so that it is possible for Cheng Hong to make this choice.

And if no one on his side would do this, then it must be on Chen Ze's side?

Behind Chen Ze, besides him, the chief soldier, there is actually an expert helping him, and that person is, Mr. Hua!

Back then, Zongbing Luo once guessed that Hua Lao did it.

But on the one hand, Cheng Hong has been reluctant to say who is behind the scenes, which makes Zongbing Luo very distressed; on the other hand, as Chen Ze said, if the person who supports them behind the scenes is Mr. Hua, then there is no need for him to hide his identity .

But don't forget that when Guo Zi went back to ask Mr. Hua for help, Mr. Hua directly asked Huang Shi to bring 100,000 troops to Nantes Province, and asked Huang Shi to fully cooperate and obey Chen Ze's orders.

With such a big fanfare, where is the slightest desire to hide?

What's more, when Chen Ze made a suggestion to Zheng Yuanyun when he was still in Bo'an City, Zheng Yuanyun didn't want to pay attention to it, but Hua Lao was also willing to vouch for Chen Ze, and he was still involved in the subsequent withdrawal of the city. , he directly stood up and used his fame to make the matter go smoothly.

At that time, didn't Mr. Hua ever think of keeping a low profile?

So even Chen Ze, after hearing Zongbing Luo's guess, didn't think it was Hua Lao's doing.

But now...
