C495 Wu Gang's Dilemma

When Wu Gang heard the four words "no one will be spared", he was instantly stunned on the spot. Although this was the answer after confirming once again, Wu Gang still did not dare to believe it in his heart.

At the same time, he had enough confidence in those two hundred people. Even if they were surrounded and annihilated by an equal number of people, or even more than twice the enemy's number, they might not be able to completely annihilate all of them. Even if they suffered heavy casualties, there would still be people who could survive.

If he encountered a high level warrior that he could not fight, he would not be able to fight back. Would he still not be able to run away? He didn't give them the death order, 'fight to the death'. There was no need for them to fight to the death with each other.

"Does he know who did it?" After Wu Gang cursed, he asked again. He was very curious, but he was also angry.

Wu Gang was not a saint, and was not a merciful person who ruled over the world. He was just a very ordinary person, he would protect his own little brother, and he would also have those kinds of emotions like 'resentment'. No one could slaughter their own warriors without paying any price.

"I don't know!" The battle was extremely intense, other than the Horse Commander and the rest's corpses, they also found a strange object, with a tall stature, it looked like a beast! The man shook his head and replied.

"Are there any other corpses besides ours?" Wu Gang asked with a cold face.

"No, aside from our people and that unknown monster, we didn't find any other traces, and also ?" The big man answered truthfully, but he was a bit hesitant at the end, as if something was about to come up on his lips, but he didn't know what to say.

"If you have something to say, just say it!" Wu Gang urged coldly.

"There seems to be traces of illusions being cast on the spot!" The man said carefully.

"Illusion Techniques? How do you know? How can you be sure? " The big sized man's words caused Wu Gang to be astonished. After muttering to himself for a moment, he immediately asked.

This news was very critical. If the big man's words were true, then perhaps he could deduce the murderer's identity and background from this.

But at the same time, Wu Gang also doubted his words, thinking about it, even if he became a Company Leader, or even a Company Leader in the end, he would still be a soldier after all. Even if there was a day when he left the army, he would at most be a warrior.

How could he possibly know what illusion was? It had to be known that not just anyone could create illusionist, the talent required was also not something anyone could possess.

For something as mysterious as Inherent Skills, they were unfathomable and untouchable, and even more so untouchable. However, to the illusionist, they were indeed an essential condition.

Without a good Inherent Skill, it was impossible to learn illusions, and without an even higher Inherent Skill, one would only be able to stay at the level of a Level Four illusionist. If one wanted to reach a higher realm, it would be difficult.

"I was once a third grade illusionist, but because I was unable to advance, I gave up on the illusionist and changed my martial arts!" The large man replied in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.

"Illusion Techniques? Could it be them? " Wu Gang puzzledly asked himself.

At this moment, already had a target and a suspect in his mind. Although there wasn't any direct evidence, Wu Gang felt that the probability of this happening was high.

Not only was he an expert in illusions, but he was also involved in this matter. The most important thing was that he had the ability to kill more than two hundred elite soldiers. How could an ordinary power do such a thing?

After all these calculations, other than the Blood Illusion Valley, who else could do such a thing? You dare to do it?

"Alright, you can all go now!" I want some peace and quiet! " Wu Gang waved his hand and said to the few people kneeling below.

Hearing Wu Gang's instructions, the few of them felt relieved and relaxed. The pressure that Wu Gang had just given them was simply too much. A few people bowed and quickly left the tent.

Even though the surroundings were quiet, Wu Gang's inner heart was not at all calm. At this time, however, his heart was constantly making calculations, calculating the pros and cons, planning for the victor and loser.

Right now, there were only two choices in front of him, one was to fight, and the other was to avoid battle. As for the target, that would be obvious, other than the Blood Illusion Valley, who else could have anything to do with this?

However, the other party was a large clan that had existed for over a hundred years. Was he really going to fall out with them just like that?

If they were to officially start a war with the Blood Illusion Valley, would it cause a chain reaction? How would the Empire's upper echelons react to this? Compared to sending troops to suppress the enemy, this was inevitable. Would he and his men be able to successfully escape this ordeal?

If he did not start a war with the Blood Illusion Valley, it would be equivalent to tacit approval of the other party's act of seizing everything from him. Even if he could swallow this anger, the Duke would most likely not agree to it.

If he were to disobey orders and not act with respect, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of the king. Putting aside the possibility of him being highly valued later on, it would be great as long as he didn't get himself killed.

To fight, or not to fight, was this a problem? This was also a matter that had to be considered. It concerned the life and death of too many people.

Wu Gang once again flipped open the new letter that the Duke had sent over, and after scrutinizing it, Wu Gang let out a heavy sigh.

According to the meaning expressed in the letter, the prince was determined to get the five hundred thousand silver taels, and was even prepared to pay any price.

"Looks like this battle is inevitable!" Wu Gang lamented to himself.

Just as Wu Gang was deep in thought, the sound of a janissary came from outside the tent once again, "Reporting to General, the Duke Palace's Guard Commander Fan Tian requests for an audience!"

Wu Gang was slightly surprised, but immediately recovered to normal, his originally cold face immediately revealed a warm smile, and he replied to the voice outside the tent: "Quickly, enter!"

"Fan Tian He pays his respects to the general!"

"Captain Fan, please refrain from being courteous. You and I are not outsiders, there is no need to be so polite!"

"Thank you, General!"

"Since we're marching out and don't have anything nice to welcome, let's use water as the bar!"

"General, there is no need for you to do this. The reason why I am here today is to discuss something with you!"

"Oh? I wonder what business Captain Fan has, you must discuss it with me! "

"I heard that Your Highness has replied. May I know what the letter says?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I'm just giving some instructions regarding this matter!"

"General, do not speak in secret in front of an open man!"

"Secret words? What does Captain Fan mean by this? What do I have to say? "

"Then I'll have to ask the general. What do we do next?"

"Of course we have to follow the orders of the prince!"

"Then this is the matter that I have to discuss with the general! "I know some things about you, General. Maybe we can exchange information on each other."

"Captain Fan, what do you want to say? Just say it!"

"And I may believe you?"

"If you don't believe me, why are you looking for me?"

"Then ?"

"Everyone move back ten meters away from the tent, no one is allowed to get close! If there are violators, then we will not forgive them! "

As the sound of the footsteps faded away, the entire tent was once again silent. After a long while, Wu Gang finally opened his mouth and said to Fan Tian He: "Alright, you can say it now, right?"

"General, I'll be frank then!"

"Please!"

"If my guess is correct, the King's reply to the General should have clearly stated that he wanted to take back the five hundred thousand taels of silver that was lost, right?"

"That's right!"

"Is the general hesitating on whether to fight him or not?"

"This ?" Wu Gang's eyes flashed, he suspiciously looked at Fan Tian He, who was in front of him. That was a form of observation, and there was a faint killing intent, because being seen through and hidden by someone, was not a good thing!

"General, you don't have to worry about me betraying you. Since you've told me to back off, I won't play with you for no reason!"

Wu Gang thought for a while, then nodded his head and admitted: "That's right, although it looks like this battle is about returning justice for the five hundred thousand silver, but the advantages and disadvantages are not as simple as they seem! Let's not talk about whether or not we can get back our Silver rank. Even if we succeed in the end, I'm afraid you and I are going to die soon! "

"General, you mean the imperial government?"

"Of course, do you think that Surveillance Council is a freeloader? Even though we haven't found anything here, it doesn't mean that they won't look for us after this! Forget about the Dean Huangfu, but just Lei Sheng and the group of barbarians under his command alone will not be able to do anything! "

"The general has thought it through!" "But I am afraid it is impossible for the general to avoid the fight."

"Oh? "Why?"

"His Royal Highness has always been suspicious, and no one was completely trusted by him! Therefore, the general will definitely have spies with the prince, and if the general dares to disobey the order, I dare to say that the general will definitely not be able to see the sun on the second day! "

"So you're one of the executors?"

"That's right, I also received a secret letter from the Prince, ordering me to monitor the actions of the General closely!" If you disobey his orders, then I am the one who will send you down! "

"Why did you tell me?"

"I'm sure I'm not the only one with this order! It might even be given to someone else! It's just that I don't know, and you don't know either! "

"You can just follow the orders of the prince, there's no need to tell me!"

"I don't think this matter is that simple!"

"What do you mean?"

"General, we are now grasshoppers on a rope. If you are like this, I'm afraid I won't be much better off! I have already told you, why should the general continue to hide it? "

"Sigh!" I don't mind telling you! On the day of the departure of the army, that Shi Haowen who came with you was probably going to be sacrificed. There's no room for discussion on this point, just nice, I see that he's unhappy too! You and your men will be sent forward, and life and death will be decided by fate! However, in the battle between the two armies, the percentage of casualties among the vanguards was quite high! This is something Captain Fan should know! "

"It seems that Your Highness wants us to restrict each other. Before the army arrives, my task is to watch over you! You can punish me after the troops arrive at the battlefield! One stone and two birds, your highness has good methods! "
