Chapter 135: Shouzhou (Medium)
Shi Yan almost felt that Lu Shizhou was an internal response at this time, otherwise he would not have cooperated with him so much; Without hesitation, he threw his token up, his identity was not false at all, and he was naturally not afraid of the people in the city to check it.

After a while, seeing that Commander Li and the others had confirmed that the token was correct, Lu Shizhou ordered: "Open the city gate!" ”
The military discipline of the Shouzhou army is extremely strict, even if Lu Shizhou is not the direct boss of these defenders, but as the commander of Heiyundu, his rank is much higher than that of the small battalion commander of Commander Li, and the military orders issued must naturally be implemented.
What's more, the identity of Shi Yan under the city has also been confirmed, they know that others may take refuge in Zhu Quanzhong, but this person will definitely not; In addition, Huainan was about to fight with Zhu Quanzhong recently, so it was normal for Shi Yan to say that he had an emergency military order from King Wu.
In this case, the soldiers did not think much about it and followed the order.
After a while, with a "squeak" sound, the city gate was finally opened.
Seeing the city gate open, the big stone in Shi Yan's heart finally landed; Li Chenghe, who was hiding in the shadows and watching, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Into town!" With Shi Yan's order, hundreds of cavalry slowly entered the city.
But this is only the first step, the first thing Shi Yan did after entering the city was not to go straight to the inner city, but to go up to the city tower to take over the city gate!
After going up to the city tower, Shi Yan asked as soon as he saw Lu Shizhou, "Is it you?" ”
This sentence was a little inexplicable, but Lu Shizhou naturally understood what he meant, and immediately smiled and replied, "It's me!"
Shi Yan was happy in his heart, and it would be more convenient for them to take the next action with Lu Shizhou coming forward to help.
"Are all the soldiers of the South Gate defenders here? Is there any elsewhere? Gather them all! ”
An Renyi and Zhang Hao showed their flaws when they attacked the outer city of Guangling, and as a result, someone took the opportunity to flee after a conflict, so that Zhang Hao and Zhang Hao were forced to launch immediately and fell short; But Shi Yan and they acted more strictly.
Lu Shizhou knew what he meant, and immediately ordered to gather the nearby defenders, and after they all gathered together, Shi Yan took out an order and announced loudly: "By the will of King Wu, order our department to take over the city gate immediately, there must be no mistake!" Take over the castle tower quickly! ”
With a wave of his hand, his soldiers immediately took out their bows and crossbows and aimed them at the defenders.
"General, what is this for?"
"I'm innocent, why kill me like this?"
The unprepared defenders were immediately frightened by Shi Yan's order, they thought that Shi Yan was preparing to seize the city gate and kill them all, they had just received an order from Lu Shizhou to assemble but did not expect to be surrounded.
Commander Li was also frightened by this scene, and couldn't help but say angrily: "General Shi, did you also take refuge in Zhu Quanzhong and want to use our Shouzhou as your promotion rank?" The last general heard that the general had hundreds of battles with Zhu Quanzhong back then, and even your own brother died in the hands of Zhu Quanzhong's army, and he was a mortal enemy with Zhu Quanzhong; And how kind the king has been to you, and how much you have repaid him? ”
He was in a fog in his mind at this time, and he thought that Shi Yan had taken refuge in Zhu Quanzhong, but he didn't expect that it was Yang Xingmi who wanted to deal with their assassin Zhu Yanshou.
"Don't panic, don't panic, as long as you stay here quietly, there will be no danger! Ben would have been able to guarantee that everyone would be safe and sound! ”
At this time, Lu Shizhou hurriedly spoke to appease the frightened soldiers. His prestige in the Shouzhou army was relatively high, and seeing him come forward to assure, the soldiers were a little relieved.
At this time, Commander Li became even more angry, "General Lu, did you also betray Huainan?" The last general heard that the general's father and son have been highly used by the king for two generations, and he can't imagine that even you have betrayed the king! ”
Lu Shizhou and Shi Yan glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"I didn't see that Commander Li was still so loyal to the king! However, the general did not take refuge in Zhu Quanzhong, but someone took refuge in Zhu Quanzhong, and the general came here in the starry night to arrest the traitor who betrayed the king on the order of King Wu! ”
"A traitor? Who is the traitor? Why don't you give an order to Zhu Yuanjun to arrest him, but let you come here to arrest people? ”
"Hehe, what if this traitor is Zhu Yanshou himself?"
"What? Zhu Zhijun took refuge in Zhu Quanzhong? ”
……
Shi Yan didn't have much time to explain to him, and after hurriedly saying a few words, he said: "Now General Li Chengsi has personally led the army as the vanguard, and the prince has also led tens of thousands of troops to Shouzhou, the purpose is to enter the city to arrest the traitor Zhu Yanshou!" You and other Shouzhou soldiers have resisted Zhu Quanzhong here for many years, and you have made no merit for me to be the barrier between the south and the north of Huainan! As long as you don't take refuge in Zhu Yanshou and the thief, it will be a great achievement; If you are a thief, you will not be forgiven! You can decide where to go! ”
Commander Li and the others naturally chose to obey, as long as Shi Yan and the others did not really take refuge in Zhu Quanzhong, then whether Yang Xingmi wanted to deal with Zhu Yanshou was not something he could manage.
What's more, he is not a fool, he doesn't dare to mess around under so many bows and crossbows, anyway, he was originally loyal to Yang Xingmi, and there will be no psychological burden to obey their military orders at this time. Not long after, after Li Chengsi led thousands of cavalry into the city, Commander Li was even more glad that he didn't do anything stupid, and even Li Chengsi came forward in person, so it must not be Shi Yan and Lu Shi who defected to Zhu Quanzhong, but Yang Xingmi wanted to deal with Zhu Yanshou, as for whether Zhu Yanshou really took refuge in Zhu Quanzhong, it didn't matter at this time.
Soon, a secret agent of the Long Sword Capital came out of the shadows, and immediately said after seeing Li Chenghei: "General Li, General Cui's side has already controlled the gate of the inner city, and Zhu Yanshou has not been alarmed, but I am afraid that there will be a change, please ask the general to hurry over!"
This is also a point that Li Chengsi has more advantages than An Renyi and them, Zhang Hao can only arrange a few assassins to enter in Guanglingya City, but Li Chengsi and they have Cui Taichu, Zhu Yanshou's pro-army commander, as the internal response.
The soldiers responsible for guarding the inner city are all Cui Taichu's direct subordinates, and with him personally responding, it is naturally much more convenient than An Renyi and them.
Li Chengsi nodded, these are all things planned in advance, and now he is not surprised to listen to the words of the secret agent, and immediately ordered: "Move forward slowly, try not to cause too much movement!" ”
They had already managed to take control of the castle tower without alerting the other defenders in the city, so there was no need to rush at full speed to seize the inner city like An Renyi and the others at this time.
After all, the cavalry charged at full speed and the movement was too big, which was very likely to alarm Zhu Yanshou, who was resting in the inner city, and the movement of slowly advancing was much smaller.
Shouzhou City is a big city, and it is not small compared to Guangling. Li Chengsi led the cavalry to advance slowly, and it took a long time to approach the inner city gate.
On the city tower, Cui Taichu was waiting anxiously, although he led his henchmen to control the city tower, but no one could say whether his subordinates had Zhu Yanshou's diehards, if they realized that something was wrong, it would inevitably alarm Zhu Yanshou.
Fortunately, after Li Chengsi's cavalry arrived, the defenders stayed there quietly, and no one resisted.
