Chapter 444: No Man's City
Tang Wei said: "Wu Yi has been closed without fighting, our army is very passive, in order to retain troops, can not attack, can only outwit, I heard that Wu Yi often other people in the city, causing the people in the city to be miserable, I need two clever sneak into the city to listen to the voice of the people, if the people are willing to help me, when our army attacks the city, you can use the power of the people to open the city gate." β
Shen Feng pondered for a moment and said: "General, I have an idea, if I want to attack Suizhou, I don't have to attack from the city gate, Wu Yi is a wall-headed grass, and the army is approaching the city, but he has no fear, it is obvious that he has prepared a way to retreat, if he can find out this way of retreat, he will directly enter the city." β
Tang Wei and Gu Biluo glanced at each other, and immediately said: "Okay, you will sneak into the city with Shi Yi, if you can find Wu Yi's way out, it is naturally the best, if not, find a way to open the city gate." β
"The last general commands!" The two of them hugged their fists and retreated, and then walked out of the camp tent and dared to go to Suizhou, the military camp was only three miles away from Suizhou, and when they came to the city wall, the two had already changed a set of clothes.
"Childe, you're hereβ"
In the dark night, a graceful figure suddenly appeared, Yin'er, who was dressed in black, had been waiting for a long time, in Shi Yi's surprise, Shen Feng introduced with a smile: "This is my wife, Qin Yin!"
Shi Yi had never seen such a stunning woman in the deep mountains and forests, his eyes were not stupid at this time, and after a while, he suddenly woke up and said: "Brother is really enviable, there is such a stunning woman, brother and sister-in-law, my name is Shi Yi, if there is anything to use me in the future, even if you send it, don't be polite to me." β
Hearing the words of brother and sister-in-law, Qin Yin suddenly raised her eyebrows, bent down and saluted, "Thank you, Brother Shi." "Although Qin Yin was born in a cult and employed in the Qinglou, this etiquette is trained according to the standard of everyone's ladies, and this soft posture doesn't have to be bad for any of the ladies.
Shen Feng turned to ask, "Yin'er, how did you check the things I handed you over?"
Qin Yin said: "Childe, I have inquired clearly, Wu Yi did leave a way to retreat, but I don't know where the retreat is, in addition to the city wall, Suizhou City is the deep mountain on the back, presumably the way to retreat is in the mountains." β
Shi Yi was surprised: "Brother, when did you ask your sister-in-law to investigate Wu Yi's retreat, you are with me for eating, sleeping, and patrolling, I haven't seen you look for your sister-in-law." β
Shen Feng said with a smile: "When the army came to Suizhou on the first day, I had already asked Yin'er to investigate. Others don't know Wu Yi, but Shen Feng knows that half a month ago, Wu Yi came to Xiangyang to give gifts to please Sister Shu, how could such a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death not leave a way out for himself, and keep Suizhou is just a promise he gave to Manichaeism, once he can't keep it, he runs faster than anyone else.
Shi Yi raised his thumb and said: "Brother is really like a god, and he is even more sure that General Tang will appoint you to sneak into the city." β
Shen Feng shook his head with a smile and didn't answer anymore, Gu Biluo and Tang Wei wanted to cultivate him, this kind of good errand, of course, the first turn was his turn, and he knew this, so he let Yin'er go to investigate early, and in the middle of the night, the three of them quietly approached Suizhou City, and as soon as they approached Suizhou City, they smelled a strange smell and wondered: "Have you smelled a strange smell." β
Shi Yi said: "I also smell it, it seems to be the smell of blood." β
Qin Yin nodded and said, "Yes, it's the smell of blood." β
"How can there be a smell of blood, Yin'er, have you entered the city today?" Could it be that the smell is similar to when passing through Luojia Village, it turned out to be a bloody smell, but this bloody smell is much lighter, Shen Feng asked: "This bloody smell seems to come from the city." β
Qin Yin shook her head and said, "Yin'er just grabbed a random city guard today and forced her to interrogate, and she didn't go deep into the city. β
Shen Feng didn't think much about it, after midnight, the city wall was not so tightly guarded, the three of them climbed into the city, the city was dark, affected by the war, the people of each family closed early, the street was depressed, even the Qinglou had been closed, probably fleeing, hiding.
"Brother Shen, there is a dead silence in the city, who are we going to?" The three of them walked in the city for an hour, but still there was no one in sight, Shi Yi couldn't help but ask.
When the three of them came to a room, Shen Feng said, "Knock on the door and take a look!"
Shi Yi stepped forward and knocked, but the door squeaked himself, the three of you look at me, I look at you, Yin'er frowned and said: "Childe, there is no one in this house, there is something weird!" After that, he ran to a few rooms next to him to check, and the situation in the other rooms was the same, all of them were just covering the doors, and there was no one inside.
"Childe, the surrounding houses are all the same, where do the people in the city go?" Qin Yin said: "I just passed through Suizhou City a month ago, and the people in the city come and go, why is it an empty city today." β
"Brother Shen, sister-in-law, come and see!" Shi Yi suddenly shouted, Shen Feng and Yin'er walked over quickly, Shi Yi pointed to the blood stains on the house and said, "Look, there are still blood stains on this house." β
Shen Feng stepped forward to take a look, the room was full of undried bloodstains, his heart was shocked, his body trembled, and he slowly squatted down, only to see that there were shallow blood stains on the ground, otherwise he squatted on the ground and looked at it, he couldn't see it at all, looking at the blood stains running across the ground, there seemed to be a picture of slaughtering the city in front of him, and he said to himself in a daze: "All dead, all killed-"
Shi Yi and Yin'er were all shocked, Yin'er covered her mouth with her hand, and exclaimed: "Childe, what are you talking about, how could the people in the city be killed, there has been no war in Suizhou recently, how could they all be killed in a few days--Could it be that Wu Yi ordered the killing of the people in the city!"
Shi Yi couldn't believe it, and ran to check elsewhere, Shen Feng closed his eyes, and there was only endless grief in his heart, no wonder he smelled a smell of blood outside the city, and after the grief, he was full of anger: "Wu Yi, I'm going to kill you!"
Qin Yin looked sad, hid her face with her hands to stop her tears, pulled out her sword suddenly, and said fiercely: "I'll kill Wu Yi now!"
Shen Feng pressed her shoulder and dissuaded: "Yin'er, don't act rashly, Wu Yi can order the slaughter of the city, proving that he is an extremely greedy person who is afraid of death, this kind of person cannot be defenseless, you can rest assured, when the army enters the city, I will definitely kill Wu Yi and avenge the people in the city." β
Qin Yin sobbed softly and said, "Childe, why is he so ruthless, in order to prevent the people from defecting, he actually slaughtered all the people-"
At this time, Shi Yi ran back and said in horror: "Brother Shen, there is blood everywhere in this city, the streets, houses, wine shops and teahouses, all of them are blood! Could it be that Wu Yi ordered the slaughter of the city?"
Shen Feng said in a solemn tone: "Tomorrow! Tomorrow, I must take Wu Yi's life." β
"This god-damned beast actually ordered the slaughter, isn't he afraid of being punished by heaven!" Shi Yi said angrily, although he was a thief, he never killed innocents indiscriminately, and he was only forced to fall into the mountains out of desperation.
Qin Yin said sadly: "There are such ruthless people in the world, even when the Rouran clan invaded south, they never ordered the slaughter of the city, and Wu Yi, as a descendant of Yan and Huang, killed his compatriots, what is this human heart!"
