Almost from the beginning when he saw Zhang Ning, Han Gui had been looking at Zhang Ning from time to time. Yang Rui mistakenly thought that Han Gui had a good impression of Zhang Ning. Perhaps Zhang Ning also thought so at the beginning, so her behavior was a little unnatural.
However, as the banquet progressed, Han Gui was stimulated by a great victory and wine. He became very excited and unintentionally revealed some information about his identity. Although Yang Rui didn't notice this, Zhang Ning at the side saw some clues.
"… Ning 'er thinks that Han Gui should be a woman. My lord, you can pay close attention to Han Gui's Adam's apple and listen to the pitch of his voice …"
After Zhang Ning's reminder, Yang Rui recalled and suddenly realized that Han Gui's neck was covered by his armor before, so he couldn't see clearly. Now, under the influence of alcohol, his throat was exposed, and there were some changes in his voice! It seemed that Han Gui was indeed a woman. No wonder there were a few times when he stuttered as if he said something wrong. Now that he thought about it, it could be explained.
Yang Rui was still surprised that Han Gui was a woman. From the situation when she fought with Yuan Shao's troops this time, she was very capable. It was indeed very rare for a woman to have such talent! However, thinking that he had such a strong female general like Zhang Ning by his side, Yang Rui immediately felt relieved.
However, Zhang Ning's words weren't finished yet. What Zhang Ning said next made Yang Rui even more surprised.
"… If Ning 'er guessed correctly, this woman should be the daughter of Ji Province's Han Fu!"
"Oh? How do you know? "
"This General Han paused a few times when he mentioned Han Fu. First, he mentioned the word 'family' and then changed to 'Ji Province's Provincial Governor Han Fu'. According to Ning 'er's judgment, what he actually wanted to say was' father '! "
“.....”
He had to admit that Zhang Ning was very attentive. After her reminder, Yang Rui also remembered a few loopholes in Han Gui's words. At this time, it should be as Zhang Ning's judgment!
"If my lord still has doubts, I can use Ning 'er's method. Ning 'er has a way to help my lord verify it. My lord, how about this … this … this … this … "
Zhang Ning whispered in Yang Rui's ear. While deducing that Han Gui should be Han Fu's daughter, she also provided Yang Rui with an ingenious method of verification. This method was very simple and to a large extent could verify Han Gui's identity. However, after Yang Rui raised his head to look around, he didn't implement it in the end to look.
"Pour wine … Pour wine!"
At this time, Han Gui was obviously drunk. Lying on the table, she couldn't raise her head. Even so, she kept shouting that she wanted to drink wine.
"Please forgive this servant's presumptuous offense, my lord. My General Han is already unable to withstand the alcohol. Please allow this servant to help the General back to his room to rest. I will apologize to you in the future!"
At this time, the servant girl who had been standing beside Han Gui hesitated for a while before she finally mustered up the courage to speak.
Originally, the servant girl didn't have the qualifications to speak in this kind of situation. However, she was the only person in Dong Ping Shu City who knew Han Dai's true identity. At this time, Han Dai was obviously very drunk. If she didn't speak, Han Dai's identity would be exposed sooner or later. Moreover, Han Dai obviously couldn't go back to her room by herself. She couldn't let other people touch her young lady's body. This was also the reason why the servant girl took the initiative to help Han Dai back.
"Of course!" Yang Rui straightforwardly replied.
In fact, Zhang Ning's method of verification was to use this servant girl as a starting point. However, because there were too many eyes and ears around, Yang Rui didn't want Han Gui to expose his identity. Therefore, the idea Zhang Ning gave him was not used.
Yang Rui agreed to the servant girl's request. At the same time, he also ordered her to tell Han Gui that they were about to leave. Then, he left Dong Ping Shu City together with Zhang Ning. He led more than 15000 cavalrymen and rushed south in the direction of Dong Ping Shu City.
Previously, when he cooperated with Han Gui to attack Yuan Shao's troops in Dong Ping Shu City, Yang Rui lost nearly 1000 cavalrymen. However, Yang Rui immediately used Dong Ping Shu City to revive. Of course, the number of mission points consumed was not small, reaching nearly 300,000 points. However, compared to the losses caused to Yuan Shao, it was worth it.
Fortunately, the number of soldiers Yang Rui killed in the battle of Dong Ping Shu City was not a small number. The number of mission points from capturing Yuan Shao had reached 500,000 points. What was rare was that it actually exceeded the number of mission points required to revive the soldiers. Furthermore, there were other contribution points such as merit points and dukedom contribution points. It could be said that they had profited quite a bit.
Previously, Yang Rui's series of siege strategies had been very successful. Not a single time did the mission points exceed the number of mission points required to revive the soldiers. From this point, it could be seen that the cooperation with Han Gui was very successful.
"Milord, why don't you verify Han Gui's identity?" On the way, Zhang Ning couldn't help but bring up the topic of Han Gui's identity as a girl.
At that time, Zhang Ning wanted Yang Rui to take advantage of Han Gui's drunken state to test the reaction of the surrounding maids and soldiers. Especially the young maid who had been standing behind Han Gui. If these people knew that Han Gui was a girl, they would definitely have a reaction. At that time, it wouldn't take much effort to ask if Han Gui was Han Fu's daughter.
"At that time, there were too many eyes and ears. I'm afraid that Han Gui's identity would be exposed." Yang Rui replied.
To be honest, when Yang Rui found out that Han Gui might be Han Fu's daughter, Han Dai, he really wanted to confirm it. However, as he said, it was always inconvenient for a woman to lead an army. If he were to reveal Han Gui's true identity, it might cause some unnecessary trouble for the other party.
If Han Gui was really Han Fu's daughter, it would be a little difficult. Originally, Yang Rui wanted to fight for her after discovering her talent. Now, it seemed that Han Fu would not let her daughter work under Yang Rui no matter what unless he agreed to a marriage alliance. Then, he could easily win over Han Dai!
Yang Rui couldn't help but shake his head. Although Han Fu's daughter had some abilities, Yang Rui still valued those famous historical strategists more. If he could only choose one of the two, Yang Rui would definitely strive for the latter.
As for the marriage alliance, it had already been rejected by Yang Rui and Cheng Yu. Of course, as the game progressed, perhaps both could be fought for. At least, Yang Rui had already worked with Han Dai once. It could be said that they had established some friendship …
The cavalry soldiers had already experienced the Battle of East Ping Shu City. After spending most of the night, Yang Rui led the cavalry and rushed 200 miles out of East Ping Shu City. The sky was already bright, so Yang Rui found a more hidden place and ordered the soldiers to rest.
The reason why Yang Rui wanted to march through the night was actually to continue the next step of the operation. He was prepared to hide during the day and travel at night to hide his tracks. From the central area of Bohai County, he would once again kill into Yuan Shao's territory and completely mess up Yuan Shao's rear!
If Yang Rui's plan was successful, it would definitely bring great chaos to Yuan Shao's territory. However, when Yang Rui rode the Flying Carpet in the morning to investigate, he had no choice but to change his mind.
Using the Flying Carpet's convenience, after Yang Rui set off from the south of East Ping Shu City, he only used a little more than two hours to arrive at Yuan Shao's old nest – South Peel City. After carefully investigating the nearby area, Yang Rui felt that it was necessary to take the opportunity to return to Ping Shu County to take a look at the situation. Currently, Yang Rui's methods of obtaining information were limited, so he had not obtained any accurate information about Ping Shu County for the past few days.
Using the Flying Carpet's extreme speed, it wasn't difficult for Yang Rui to reach Pingyuan Prefecture and return within a day. It was during Yang Rui's investigation that he unexpectedly discovered Yan Liang and Wen Chou's cavalry that were retreating towards the north.
The 40000 Sixth Grade soldiers led by Yan Liang and Wen Chou, the Hebei Cavalry, were far too conspicuous. Yang Rui had only seen them once, but he was able to discover their tracks from a great distance!
With the strength of Yan Liang and Wen Chou, in addition to the 40000 Sixth Grade Hebei Cavalry, if they ran into Yang Rui's 15000 Fourth Grade and Fifth Grade cavalry, Yang Rui could easily imagine the consequences. The enemy's cavalry was superior to his own cavalry in terms of both speed and combat power. If they were caught by the enemy, Yang Rui's cavalry would be nothing more than cannon fodder!
Thus, Yang Rui's plan to continue wreaking havoc in Yuan Shao's rear was no longer feasible! In fact, Yan Liang and Wen Chou's cavalry might very well have been sent back by Yuan Shao to deal with Yang Rui. Naturally, Yang Rui had to stay as far away from them as possible.
After figuring out the general direction of Yan Liang and Wen Chou's cavalry, Yang Rui did not continue towards Ping Shu County. Instead, he rode the Flying Carpet back to his cavalry camp. He needed to urgently adjust the direction of his army!
Yan Liang and Wen Chou's cavalry had come from Dong Guang County and were heading towards Nan Pi. They were traveling along the border between Hejian County and Bohai County. Yang Rui's cavalry was also traveling along the border between the two counties. If both sides maintained their current direction, the two armies would only get closer and closer to each other. There was even a possibility of them bumping into each other!
Especially when the enemy had reached Nan Pi City and received news of the battle at East Flush City, it was very likely that they would head straight for East Flush City. When that happened, the chances of them bumping into Yang Rui's cavalry would increase significantly.
After Yang Rui rushed back to the camp, he quickly set up camp. First, he led his men to head west towards the Eastern Province for several hundred li, almost reaching the middle line between the east and west of Hejian County. Then, he headed south along the middle of Hejian County to avoid Yan Liang and Wen Chou's Hebei Cavalry.
At this time, Yang Rui no longer paid attention to traveling at night. In the current game, the speed of information transmission was not fast. By the time Yan Liang and Wen Chou found out about Yang Rui's route, it would be too late for them to chase after him. Even so, Yang Rui was still worried. Every day, he would use the Flying Carpet to investigate the enemy's route to ensure that they would avoid them.
