Chapter 237: A Quiet Town!

And Lu Chen, they had just experienced a big battle, and if there was another group of fierce beasts, even if they could handle it, they would be exhausted in the end. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As they skirted the nearby mountain along the official road, a group of people finally saw the not-so-tall city in the distance.

Although it was still a long way away, they could still see that there were many troops guarding the city gates.

This made everyone's brows furrow slightly, and it was obvious that these gate guards should have been added later. Because such a small frontier city does not need so many guards at all. And even if there are so many guards, they don't all need to be at the gates.

After all, this is just a small border city with few people, and the total number of permanent residents in it is probably more than 1,000 people.

At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly waved his hand, causing the people behind him to stop. If the hundreds of them entered the small city together, it would definitely cause panic, even if the small city was finally controlled. However, the news of their arrival in Yizhou will also be exposed.

During this sensitive period, as long as the Taishou of Nayizhou got the news, he would definitely think that it was the families and the remnants of the forces that he destroyed were causing trouble. When the time comes, in order for the alliance to proceed smoothly, Taishou will definitely send a large army to capture them.

Therefore, in this special period, Lu Chen didn't want to cause trouble again. At this time, Lu Chen immediately called Lian Feng over, whispered a few words in his ear, and then saw Lian Feng nodding and immediately rushed to the small city in the distance.

Seeing Lian Feng's figure gradually disappearing, Lu Chen turned around and said, "Let's rest here for a while, and then we will enter the city in the evening!" Remember, everyone should be careful when you enter the city, try to keep a low profile, and try not to alarm the inhabitants of the city. ”

Hearing this, all the next few hundred people agreed. At this time, Long Yan and Luo Gong stepped forward together, and Luo Gong asked with some confusion, "Why don't we enter the city now?" ”

Looking at the puzzled looks of the two, Lu Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "You don't have to worry, you'll know in the evening."

Hearing this, although the two of them looked puzzled, they could only give up when they saw that Lu Chen was killed and didn't say anything.

Because they had just gone through that big battle, and then they had gone on a long journey after a while. By this time, all the soldiers had become exhausted. Therefore, after listening to Lu Chen and letting them rest in place, many people squatted directly on the ground, and even some people lay directly on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Lu Chen could only take turns standing guard with Long Yan and the others, after all, accidents could happen at any time in this wilderness, and someone had to stand guard.

For the reaction of these soldiers, Lu Chen did not blame them in the slightest. Even he was tired now, let alone these soldiers.

A group of people rested quietly on the side of this official road, and with the passage of time, the sky gradually darkened.

Looking at the sun that had disappeared from the sky, Luo Gong walked in front of Lu Chen again, and said with some worry, "Lu Chen, aren't we going into the city now?" In a few moments, the town will probably be closed. You're not going to spend the night in the wilderness, are you?"

Looking at Luo Gong with a worried face, Lu Chen gently patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You don't have to worry so much, I naturally won't let everyone spend the night here."

Soon, it was completely dark. At this time, I saw a small black dot appear in the direction of Xiaocheng, and the small black dot quickly rushed towards this side, and it had been pulled in front of them in a short time.

This person is Lian Feng, he gasped and said to Lu Chen, "Do it. That's it."

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled and said, "Very good, you rest for a while, and we'll set off later!" ”

After talking to Lian Feng, Lu Chen turned around and said loudly, "Everyone get up, let's go to the city to rest!" ”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Chen suspiciously, before Lu Chen asked them to rest on the spot, most of them thought that they would spend the night here tonight. Just as they were sleeping soundly, Lu Chen suddenly woke them up and asked them to go to the small city to rest.

Especially Luo Gong, after hearing Lu Chen's words, the puzzled look on his face was even worse, and he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped. Looking at the sky now, the city gate is probably closed.

Following Lu Chen, these people walked unhurriedly towards the small town in the distance. On the way, Luo Gong finally couldn't help but ask Lu Chen, "Lu Chen, are you sure that we can still enter the city now?" This kind of town closes its gates at dusk."

Looking at Luo Gong with a worried face, Lu Chen smiled again and said, "Don't worry, you'll know right away." The main reason I went into town after dark was because our goal was too big. In case the news of our entry into the city reaches Taishou's ears, it will inevitably make him suspicious."

Hearing Lu Chen's analysis, Luo Gong's eyes had a hint of admiration. He didn't expect Lu Chen to be so thoughtful, and he even thought of this. However, there was still a trace of doubt in Luo Gong's eyes, although the goal of entering the city during the day was too big, but how should they enter at night? After all, the gates are closed now.

And when Luo Gong was puzzled, hundreds of people had already come to the city gate under the leadership of Lu Chen. At this time, I saw Lian Feng running to the city gate first, and then under the gaze of these hundreds of people, he actually pushed the city gate open.

This scene made a group of people completely stunned, what happened?

Could it be that the soldiers defending the city forgot to close the gates? It's not right to think about it, even if one person forgets it, but others will think about it. With such doubts in everyone's hearts, they looked towards the city.

And at this moment, Lian Feng had completely opened the city gate. Through the doorway, they saw four soldiers lying by the wall, dead or alive.

Lu Chen made a boo gesture to everyone, and said in a low voice, "Talk to the people around you, try not to make a noise after entering the city"

After saying this, Lu Chen took the lead and walked towards the city. When Lu Chen saw the four city gate guards lying next to him, he said to Long Yan beside him, "You find a few people, torture these soldiers' daily tasks and all kinds of information, and then replace the city gate guards here with our people, just leave a way for us to escape."

Hearing this, Long Yan's eyes lit up, this is indeed a good strategy, although now it seems that they don't need to leave this retreat, but who knows if there will be an accident?

After saying goodbye to Long Yan, Lu Chen and Lian Feng walked towards the city together, walking on the stone-paved street, Lu Chen glanced around. Sure enough, it is a small county town, and the shops around it look a little dilapidated, and there are few shops with lights at night, and the whole street seems to be dark and silent, with only a few scattered lights in the distance.
