When night falls, it's time for the lights to come on.

However, the city of Suzhou, which should have been lit up everywhere, is now completely shrouded in darkness, except for a few places where there are still lanterns and torches, and only a few rays of light shine through the cracks in the doors of the well-to-do people. If you didn't know where you are, no one would have dared to believe that you are now in Suzhou, one of the richest cities in the south of the Yangtze River.

Since Pang Wanchun garrisoned Suzhou and made this place an important place on the front line against the enemy, several strict orders have been issued, the most severe of which is the curfew. At night, the people were not allowed to go out without permission, but those who violated the order, as long as they were caught by the night patrol army, could be killed on the spot, and their family property could be confiscated for the crime of collaborating with the enemy, which can be regarded as the heaviest criminal law in Wu State.

It was precisely because of such severe punishment that the people of Suzhou, who were still quite dissatisfied, suddenly did not dare to speak out again, and the whole of Suzhou quickly fell silent at night. Not to mention ordinary people, even those original restaurants and Qinglou and other places now dare not light up at night.

But for some, darkness may still be a good thing, because the environment is more conducive to quiet.

The three hundred elites of the Qingzhou army were divided into three teams on this night, and each launched an occupation of Suzhou City, and they took advantage of the cover of night to quickly march through the empty streets and alleys, and rushed towards their respective goals.

The target of this road brought by the time migration is the granary located in the southeast of the city. This time, of course, what they had to do was not to seize and take control of the entire granary, but to put a fire in it and burn it down.

Before the soldiers and horses moved the grain and grass first, Sun Tu and they naturally knew very well what the supply of logistics grain and grass meant to the Wu army, as long as they burned the grain hoarded in the city, it would be a fatal blow to the enemy. And Shi Qian is a veteran in this area, under his leadership, the team of more than 100 people easily avoided the three groups of night patrols, and quietly came to the granary near the granary, which was not tightly defended, and only a dozen or so people were still guarding in front of the door.

Shi Qian's eyes flashed with excitement, since he joined the official army and followed Sun Tu, he hadn't done the same thing as stealing chickens and dogs in the past for a long time. And today's arson and burning of food obviously made him find some of his original feelings, and he only waved his hand and led people to sneak up.

The guards in front of the door were not strict at this time, or chatting against the wall, or wandering into the world, they never thought that the blind guy would dare to hit the military rations. So until they saw someone appear in front of them, they were still in a trance, and after a while, they exclaimed, "Who is it? ”

But how could the elite of these scout battalions let go of such an opportunity? In just one arrow step, more than 30 people quickly pounced, and the cold light flashed in their hands, which had killed these people while approaching, and in just a few moments, more than a dozen guards had all been killed, and there was not much sound to make.

At the same time, Shi Qian, who had not started to kill, had already flashed to the root of the outer wall of the warehouse, which was more than three feet high, and only took off, and then kicked and pressed on the wall with his hands and feet, and the man had climbed up to the city as easily as an ape, and in the blink of an eye, he had landed safely inside the warehouse.

This skill made the scouts under him amazed, and to be honest, they hadn't seen their own conductor perform such a wonderful light body kung fu for many years. At the same time as they sighed, the door of the warehouse in front of them was already opened, and Shi Qian smiled and waved his hand, signaling everyone to follow him into it.

The next thing was simpler, although there were still more than a dozen guards left in the warehouse, but they didn't suddenly wake up from their sleep until they were put on the neck by the knife holder. Before they even had time to ask for mercy, they all had their throats cut and died. The screams of these people before they died did not even allow the door to penetrate.

While getting rid of all the guards in the warehouse, some people entered the granaries separately, and then they discovered a strange thing, and when they exited, many people were shocked. Shi Qian, who was presiding over the overall situation outside, couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”

"General, more than half of the more than 20 warehouses here are completely empty, and even if there is grain, less than 30%. We estimated that the food here together would be enough for 100,000 troops for about ten days. ”

After hearing this, Shi Qian was also stunned, and then laughed: "No wonder the man surnamed Pang will send someone to persuade us to surrender, and retreat ten miles so obediently, it turns out that his logistics are about to be unable to keep up, but he is using this to bluff us." ”

"Then do you still set fire?"

"Why not? Presumably they still want to use these warehouses to fool the army under their hands, as long as this fire is burned, the rebel army will immediately fall apart, and our siege of Changshu will naturally be solved! Shi Qian said without hesitation.

The crowd immediately received the order and quickly got busy again. They carried a lot of grain outside, scattered it everywhere, and then poured oil on it - this was provided by the Su family, as a big local businessman, the Su family also ran an oil shop, which came in handy.

When everything was arranged, they quickly exited the gate, and as time shifted and threw the fire in their hands onto one of the puddles of oil, the line of fire spread rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it had set fire to the warehouses in front of them, and finally the entire granary was engulfed in flames.

In just a short time of tea, the fire had completely risen, illuminating the dark night sky overhead and turning red, and it quickly alarmed the soldiers and civilians in the city. Then, the screams, gongs and drums quickly rang out, and the nearby night patrol troops also rushed over.

It's just that before they arrived, the soldiers of the scout battalion who had done all this had already disappeared into the darkness and rushed to the agreed place before.

Xu Fan was awakened by the shouts outside, and at first he was quite annoyed, and shouted: "Someone! Who is disturbing in the city, I don't know that I am under curfew in Suzhou now? ”

But there was no response from the outside, and when he got up to put on his clothes and open the door to scold again, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. It was not the red light outside that rushed straight into the flames of the bullfight, but the corpses and blood that were all over the ground outside the door. The dozens of guards in his house were already out of the house, so it was no wonder that no one answered when he shouted.

And it wasn't until this time that someone under the corridor not far in front of him spoke leisurely: "General Xu is really leisurely, such a big thing happened in the city, and you can still lie down, I really admire it." ”

"You...... Who are you......" Xu Fan, who was already pale with fright, subconsciously touched his waist, but he felt empty, and his saber was still in the room.

Before he could make a move back to his room, the people under the porch pounced like cheetahs. With Xu Fan's martial arts, he couldn't even see the opponent's moves clearly, and he had been put on one knee in his lower abdomen, and the whole person arched up like a prawn, screaming in pain, and at the same time his heart sank to the bottom. Because he immediately saw dozens of bloody blades emerging from the darkness, and it was obvious that they had done everything outside, and there was no one alive in the mansion except himself.

"Xu Fan, who was originally just a minor officer in the Suzhou garrison, was reused because he defected to Fangla's anti-army early, and was entrusted with an important task by Pang Wanchun to stay in Suzhou City during his expedition." The person in front of him smiled and explained his origin and current identity: "Hand over the letter in the army, I can spare your life, otherwise, they will be your example." I count three times, one ——! ”

There was no nonsense, and he directly handed over a fatal choice to Xu Fan. And his reaction at this time was actually very fast, and he hurriedly shouted: "I'll give it to you, the thing is in the room......" There is nothing more important than his own life. The reason why he rebelled and defected to the anti-army that day was also because he knew that he had offended his boss and was afraid that his life would be in danger, so he simply gambled desperately.

After receiving the seal letter from Xu Fan's hand, Sun Tufang showed a satisfied smile, and at the same time looked at the firelight in the southeast, and said with a smile: "They moved quickly, and they actually completed the task one step earlier than us, and now only Luda and Wu Song are left!" ”

The destruction of military rations, the control of the chiefs, and the attack on the military camp were the three important steps that Sun Tu took to completely disrupt Suzhou. Now that the first two steps have been successful, only this last and most critical step remains.

Soon, a great noise erupted in the southwest corner, which was the movement of the soldiers and horses fighting, and it was obvious that two groups of men and horses were facing each other head-on in the middle of the night.

Although there were still 3,000 defenders in the city, although Wu Song and they only brought only about 150 people to the barracks, but after hearing that the battle broke out, Sun Tu did not have the slightest worry, and seemed so confident, which made Xu Fan look stupid.

Sun Tu is naturally confident, thinking that at the beginning, he could lead 300 people to rush straight to the camp of thousands of troops, then today's Wu Song and they will naturally be able to win more with less, and completely defeat and subdue this rebel army of thousands of people.

His judgment proved to be quite accurate, and when it was dark, someone came to report that the defenders of the city had been defeated, and only a few enemies took advantage of the chaos to open the city and escape......

The reason why it was able to win so easily was that in addition to the fact that the elite of the scout battalion of the Qingzhou Army was indeed capable of fighting, the weakness of the enemy was also the key. The soldiers and horses left behind in Suzhou naturally could not be the elite of the Wu army, coupled with the fire in the granary that caused the army to be in turmoil, and the dragons were leaderless, and the thousands of men and horses who suddenly encountered the surprise attack only parried for a while, and they were completely collapsed and scattered......

As a result, the result that shocked many people appeared, Sun Tu really only relied on 300 people, and easily disrupted the entire Suzhou City. Even in a sense, he has replaced Pang Wanchun and gained control of this city!
