In the marshal's camp, a group of generals sat in a group, discussing how to break through the heaven-level city in front of them.

"Time is running out, the other five-way armies have already arrived under the imperial capital, but we can't even attack a heaven-level city, if they give us a quick start, where do you let our main army put their face?"

A young general said righteously that he had no problem fighting and would always be at the forefront, but the problem now was that people were clearly unwilling to surrender, and the city was full of supplies, so it would be okay to delay for ten or twenty years.

Seeing that the grain and grass were about to run out, the other armies had already besieged the Muhe Imperial Capital, but Bai Xing still did not give the order for a general attack.

"Military division, such a long-term will affect the morale of the army, if it is stationed for a long time and does not attack the city, the blood of the brothers will be cold, and the losses will probably be greater in the future. ”

Zhu Linxiao also felt that it was not a matter to drag on any longer, so he suggested attacking hard, the big deal was that the losses were bigger, and it was the right choice to go to Muhe Huangdu to join the rest of the army as soon as possible.

"Strategist, are you going to say something?"

Everyone was so anxious, but Bai Xing still looked calm, which couldn't help but annoy.

At this time, Bai Xing settled down and said: "I don't attack, it's not because I pity anyone, but in this city, there are tens of thousands of people who want to join us. Have you ever wondered who will be the first to die if we attack? not our people, but the people of the city who have hope and want to be rescued by us. Now, I think the city lord is determined to defend to the end, once we attack the city, if he orders a massacre in the city in revenge for himself, what will we do?"

"That's easy to say, I'll take a few brothers to sneak into the city to protect them, and you'll attack the city outside, what do you think?"

A young general said that in the current situation, it was undoubtedly self-defeating to sneak into the city, but he had no fear.

Bai Xing tightly locked his brows, and after analyzing it carefully, he said: "This task is arduous, and it is simply an impossible task. The people who go must not only be voluntary, but also superior in strength, with one against ten or even more. ”

"Wrapped up in me, all my brothers are not afraid of death, and their strength is stronger than that of other legions. ”

The young general patted his chest and assured that after Bai Xing's consent, he immediately walked out and summoned his own legion over.

After the general left, Bai Xing turned to look at Hua Yuerong on the side and said, "We can't pin all our hopes on the death squad, Marshal Hua, this time you must personally lead the team and lead a group of people with superb climbing skills to climb up from the rear cliff." ”

"That's a cliff, are you serious?"

The main reason why the rear of this city has become a natural barrier is that its mountain walls are smooth, and there is no place to borrow strength, and ordinary people want to climb up from below. Even if there is a ladder, it doesn't necessarily mean that you have the stamina to climb up.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if you climb up, but you can climb in a straight line, do you still have the strength to fight again after coming up?

"Ten thousand cliffs, can't you go up?"

Bai Xing's face was solemn, and he said: "Marshal Hua, now I order you to lead 8,000 elite soldiers to go around the back mountain, I don't care what method you use, you must go up to the top of the cliff before sunrise, and protect the civilians in the city with the death squad led by General Yu." ”

"Okay, I'm fine, but if my people can't get up........."

"Military law!"

Without waiting for Hua Yuerong to finish speaking, Bai Xing preemptively said, looking at his solemn expression, it was obvious that he was a weak scholar who could launch a threat to make himself, a cultivator, dare not say anything.

In the end, Hua Yuerong had no choice but to do so.

After Hua Yuerong left, Bai Xing looked at Zhu Linxiao and said, "Go back and prepare, attack the city on time at dawn, no matter what method you use, you must break through the city gate." ”

"Yes!"

Bai Xing nodded, and then said: "Everyone must remember that the order reaches everyone, and after entering the city, you must not harm civilians. Robbery, theft, robbery, abduction, torture, and fornication, if anyone dares to commit it, he will be killed. In addition, everyone has the right to supervise others, and they can all enforce it. ”

"Okay, no problem, absolutely do. ”

After the generals left, General Yu led his subordinates to the front of the marshal's camp.

Bai Xing walked out of the tent, looked at this group of young people who looked at death as home, and nodded solemnly.

"Brothers, I know you're all good. This mission is very difficult, and it is very likely to be a one-way trip, but for the sake of the civilians in the city, in order to liberate this oppressive and shrouded heaven-level city, it is necessary to infiltrate it. Here, I promise everyone that whoever goes up to the city wall will receive a high reward, eight hundred gold for each person, twice as many as those who die in battle, and three times as many who survive. ”

As the saying goes, under the heavy money, there must be brave men. Eight hundred gold is enough for many people's military salaries for several years, not to mention at least double it, maybe this thousand six hundred gold is something that many people can't earn in a lifetime, but now, as long as you climb over this city wall, you can get it.

General Yu personally led the team and led fifty young soldiers to the southeast corner of the city in the dark night.

The walls here are the shortest, which is also convenient for rock climbing, and the enemy troops on them are relatively loose, with only five men.

According to many days of observation, the guards on the city wall changed their shifts every six hours, at six o'clock and twelve o'clock respectively.

There was still an hour left before their daytime changing of the guard, which happened to be the best time for a sneak attack.

"Action!"

General Yu took out a dagger and bit it with his teeth, and began to climb up the corner of the city wall.

Under the leadership of the general, the rest of the people also began to go to the wall one after another.

This wall is not too high, only twenty meters, and it quickly climbs up.

As soon as he crossed the city wall, Yu Jing took off the dagger in his mouth, and after quickly eliminating the five soldiers on the city wall like electricity, he ordered his men to change into their clothes and disguise themselves as soldiers here to guard to prevent being discovered by the enemy and startling the snake.

Fifty people, all of them climbed the city wall within three minutes, and after five people changed into the clothes of enemy soldiers, Yu Jing led the remaining forty-four people to quickly run towards the city.

After searching and inquiring in the city for a while, Yu Jing learned that the people of the whole city were now waiting for the enemy army to attack and rescue them.

Although the news is good news, everyone hopes to join Zhang Zhao's camp as soon as possible, but it also angers the city lord, and now every family, from the major martial arts families to the common people, is almost all confined at home. There would be ten soldiers in every ten households, and whoever went to the market to buy groceries had to be accompanied by two soldiers.
