Somehow, Gu Jingzhi felt that something was fishy.

It’s not that he has any feelings for his biological father whom he has never met, it’s just to deal with Gu Heng.

Ever since he learned about his life experience, he has repeatedly studied Gu Heng. He was shocked by the result.

Gu Heng was indeed brave in battle and was a fierce general on the battlefield, but his ability to lead troops was not very good, which led to his disastrous defeat more than ten years ago.

Although there were selfish reasons for this, losing the battle would not benefit him in any way, so he would definitely not put himself in a disadvantageous position just to eliminate those old generals of the Yun Kingdom.

Then there is only one answer, that is, Gu Heng’s ability to command the army is limited.

These are just the results that Gu Jingzhi analyzed from some battle examples.

Speaking of Gu Heng's leadership level, it is not even as good as Wu Song in front of him. After all, in that battle more than ten years ago, Wu Song was placed in the most dangerous position, but Wu Song managed to bring his subordinates back alive!

This shows to a large extent that Wu Song's leadership level is higher than Gu Heng's!

Gu Jingzhi could see these problems just through battle examples. It made no sense that Gu Zhen, as Gu Heng's immediate superior, should not understand them. But what was the result?

The one who inherited the position of chief general of Gu's army was Gu Heng!

According to the information he has received so far, Gu Zhen's Gu family should be a very cohesive military family. Naturally, they will not entrust the entire Gu family army to Gu Heng just because he is a family general.

This unscientific!

In fact, it was also proved that Gu Heng did have evil ambitions!

However, Wu Song just shook his head in response to Gu Jingzhi's question: "Back then, General Gu and the other two major generals of the Gu family were tricked into entering the capital of Yun State by Zhao Zhongli using a forged imperial edict. After the rebellion broke out, Major General Gu brought Gu Heng to provide assistance, but later only Gu Heng returned!"

"It's said that Young General Gu and the entire Gu family were murdered by Zhao Zhongli and other rebels, and before leaving, he entrusted the Gu family army to him!"

"Of course, we old generals don't believe it, but Lin..."

He glanced at Gu Jingzhi, his expression slightly angry: "Later, because my wife got married, and he had the Gu family army's military orders in his hands, we had no choice but to obey!"

"I finally found out that this despicable Gu Heng was actually threatening the lives of the Major General and others. We were worried about the Gu family's bloodline, so we had no choice but to obey..."

"Major General!"

Wu Song knelt on one knee and said, "Now that the Major General has escaped Gu Heng's control, I ask the Major General to avenge my tens of thousands of brothers for our loyalty to the Gu family in the past!"

"General Wu..."

Gu Jingzhi helped Wu Song up and looked into his sincere eyes with some emotion...

The ancients valued loyalty, and it was true!

He said, "General, dealing with Gu Heng is no small matter. He has the Prime Minister Song Pu behind him, and he is also a founding noble. If you are not absolutely sure, you can't touch him at this time!"

"I understand, but I hope the young general will never forget our past grudges!"

Wu Song nodded, then as if he had thought of something, he asked, "Just now, the Major General asked about the cause of General Gu Zhen's death. Did he discover something else?"

"I have some suspicions, but I have no clue yet!"

Gu Jingzhi said with a frown.

"That bastard Zhao Zhongli is being escorted to the capital by the Major General. We can ask him on the way if we get a chance and see if we can get anything out of him!"

A trace of hatred flashed in Wu Song's eyes: "This bastard is the mortal enemy of my Gu family army. Now that he is escorted back to the country by the major general, it can be regarded as revenge for the genocide of the Gu family! But..."

He looked at Gu Jingzhi and said, "This bastard must be killed now. Major General, please do not kill him privately. If your identity is suspected, I am afraid the court will be on guard."

The reason why the old generals of the Gu family can be reused is simply because the Gu family has been destroyed.

But if he knew that Gu Jingzhi was a descendant of the Gu family, Emperor Xia would inevitably have to consider some other factors.

Gu Jingzhi also knew this and nodded silently.

He had no feelings for the Ningzhou Gu family. After all, apart from blood ties, he didn't know anyone in the Gu family.

but……

This Gu family legacy...

Judging from Wu Song's behavior today, it would not be difficult for me to recruit him for my own use.

The conflict between him and the Gu family is irreconcilable. If he didn't know his own life experience, it would be fine. But now that he knows, he will definitely not stay with the Gu family.

He is not Gu Heng's son, so Gu Heng has no burden at all when he wants to kill him!

Seeing that the discussion was over, Wu Song immediately said, "The people in that carriage on the road should be useful to the Major General. I will hand them over to the Major General!"

"they are?"

"They are all miserable people. Two of them were rescued by me a few years ago, and one of them..."

He pulled out a letter from his pocket and said, "It's all written here. The Major General will know it at a glance!"

"???"

Gu Jingzhi reached out and took it.

Wu Song looked at him deeply again and said, "I can't stay any longer. I have to say goodbye to the Major General!"

Gu Jingzhi nodded and said, "General, you will be leaving for Yuzhou to take up your new post soon. Please be careful!"

"Don't worry, Young General. Guarding the border is what we military commanders are good at. However, Young General is now successful and famous, so you must be extremely careful in the capital!"

"Ok!"

Gu Jingzhi nodded.

Wu Song bowed again, then untied the reins of his warhorse and hurried away.

……

Not long after Wu Song left, Gu Jingzhi slowly walked out of the forest.

Seeing him come out, Liu Sandao and Lin Feng immediately ran over: "Sir (cousin)..."

Gu Jingzhi shook his head and then ordered: "Brother Feng, I'll trouble you to take the carriage. Remember not to let anyone get close to them!"

"???"

Lin Feng glanced at the carriage. Wasn't this the one left behind by the general? Was there something fishy going on?

But since Gu Jingzhi had spoken, he did not hesitate and said immediately: "Don't worry, cousin, there will be no mistakes!"

"Ok!"

Gu Jingzhi nodded, then looked at Liu Sandao and whispered, "Brother Liu, there is something I need your help with!"

"My lord, please give me your instructions!"

Seeing Gu Jingzhi's cautious expression, Liu Sandao immediately put on a solemn expression!

"It will be nightfall in another hour. Brother Liu, take your men and leave under the cover of darkness to go to Jeju Prefecture and..."

Gu Jingzhi explained everything in detail beside Liu Sandao's ear.

After a while, Liu Sandao looked at Gu Jingzhi in astonishment. Gu Jingzhi nodded and said, "This is a serious matter. Brother Liu, please be extremely cautious. Don't let anyone notice your whereabouts. You must bring the person back to the capital safely!"

"Don't worry, sir. I understand!"

"Ok!"

Gu Jingzhi warned: "If this is successful, remember not to be careless along the way, and you must bring the person back alive!"

Liu Sandao nodded, and Gu Jingzhi smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Let the delegation continue to set off!"
