At the end of the day, a fresh breeze blew away the dark clouds, and the moonlight like water fell down, adding a ray of light to the dark earth.

Liu Yehu stood in the courtyard, looking up at the bright moon in the sky.

Unlike the soldiers of the Iron Guard Battalion who were a little anxious around him, Liu Ye's face was surprisingly calm.

Now, nearly two hours have passed since the time of the hour, and Huang Jie has not sent troops for a long time, which almost means that Wang Chong's plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle has been completely shattered.

However, Liu Ye was not worried in his heart, because he believed that Wang Chong, who was also aware of this, would soon go all out to break through the water village and send troops to the city of Exian.

When the time comes, they will join forces with the Jinfan army outside the city, and they can also take this county seat, the only difference is that Zhou Hu's 800 Iron Guard Battalion will have to bear more pressure than expected.

But just when Liu Ye was full of thoughts, he saw the wind on the soles of Zhou Hu's feet, ran into the courtyard quickly, lowered his voice and said excitedly in his ear: "Military advisor, good news, that Huang Jie has now led the army out of the city!" ”

Liu Ye was taken aback: "Is this true?" ”

Zhou Hu nodded: "It's true!" ”

Scold!

Liu Ye smiled, although he didn't know why the yellow shot suddenly had a hot head, but this was obviously a good thing for them.

"Does General Zhou know how many troops that yellow shot took out of the city?"

"It's about three thousand, and only the deputy general Deng Long is left to lead two thousand soldiers to defend the city!" Zhou Hu rubbed his palms and asked impatiently, "Strategist, when will we do it?" ”

Liu Ye thought for a while and said: "Don't be in a hurry for the time being, it's not too late to wait for the army of Huang Shot to go farther before making a move!" ”

About two quarters of an hour passed. Liu Ye cast a suggestive look at Zhou Hu, who understood and immediately sneaked out of the mansion.

Not for a while. The soldiers of the Iron Guard Battalion, who were originally hiding in several other compounds, were also brought over by Zhou Hu.

Liu Ye drew his sword and said to Zhou Hu: "Let's go, tell everyone, slowly approach the city gate, slow down as much as possible, and be discovered by the enemy later." The better our odds are! ”

In the middle of the night, there was no dead figure on the street, even though the people had already heard the faint shouts of killing in the distance. are also afraid to shrink in the bed, where dare to walk out of the door without knowing whether they are alive or dead? And this, on the contrary, provides a lot of convenience for the Iron Guard Battalion.

And just like that, it didn't take a few minutes. Between the Iron Guard Camp and the City Gate. There are only less than 100 paces left.

However, the current city defense was on high alert, so when they were still about fifty steps away from the city gate, they were finally discovered by the Exian soldiers guarding the city.

"Stop! Who is it!? ”

There was a loud shout from the front, and a hideous killing intent suddenly rose on Zhou Hu's face, and he was about to give the order to rush to kill, but was stopped by Liu Ye waving his hand.

I saw Liu Ye take a few steps forward and replied calmly: "General, don't panic, we are the private soldiers of Master Zhang's mansion in Nancheng." Just now, my lord heard the sound of shouting and killing coming from the riverbank in the distance, and he was afraid that some thieves would attack and disturb Exian County. That's why they sent us to help! ”

"Oh? It turned out to be a private soldier in Master Zhang's mansion? Hearing Liu Ye's answer, the person who asked was obviously relieved, "You guys wait here, and I will report to the general in the city before I make a plan!" ”

With that, he turned and went up to the wall.

Zhou Hu came to Liu Ye's side and laughed in a low voice: "The military advisor is really a good means, just a few words will make the other party believe it!" ”

Liu Ye glanced at Zhou Hu angrily: "I have been in Exian for more than two months, if I still can't figure out the situation in the city, then what kind of military adviser should I be?" Quick, pass the order, no one will act rashly later, wait for my password before making a move, understand? ”

"No!" Zhou Hu nodded, and quickly conveyed Liu Ye's order.

After a while, the departing general turned back and said to Liu Ye: "General Deng has an order, let you wait here for the time being, and when the enemy army comes to attack the city, it is not too late to go up to the city wall to cooperate with us in defending the city!" ”

Liu Ye's face was a little unkind, he never expected that this Deng Long would be so cautious, in this way, his plan to go up to the city wall and directly capture Deng Long to force down these two thousand soldiers would not be able to be implemented smoothly.

"Since General Deng can't use us, then let's go back to the house, but when you are in trouble, don't ask us!"

Liu Ye sneered at the corner of his mouth, and his attitude was very tough, because Master Zhang, who was pretended to come by him this time, was the largest wealthy family in this Exian County, even if he saw Huang Shot on weekdays, he had to respectfully call 'Zhang Gong', Liu Ye expected that even if it was Deng Long, he might not dare to offend this person rashly.

Sure enough, the other party immediately panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Sir, leave slowly, and ask the general again when I go up!" ”

"Don't ask, let them come up!"

On the city wall, Deng Long, who heard the conversation between the two clearly, had a blue face, and felt as if he had suffered all kinds of humiliation, but there was no way, he was just a deputy general, if he offended the Zhang family, Huang Zu would probably abandon him to keep the friendship of the Zhang family.

Liu Ye smiled faintly, waved his hand and led his corporal to the city wall, and when he saw the heavily armed soldiers of the Iron Guard Battalion, the surrounding Exian defenders did not doubt him except that the Zhang family was really rich.

Deng Long was very cautious, hiding among the soldiers, and looked coldly at Liu Ye not far away through the bonfire: "This gentleman, it seems to be very strange?" ”

Liu Ye said proudly: "What is the identity of my Zhang family? Some people, do you usually meet them? ”

"You ......" Deng Long was angry and said viciously, "The general will ask you, since you are here to help our army defend the city, why did you sneak over, and you didn't even dare to light a torch on the road?" ”

Liu Ye squinted and smiled, "Is General Deng suspicious of me?" ”

"......" The muscles in the corners of Deng Long's eyes twitched, in fact, he did have many doubts in his heart, but he just saw that what Liu Ye said was conclusive, in case the other party was really from the Zhang family, if he didn't say a word, he would expel the people, and he was afraid that he would not be able to eat and walk around in the future, so he put them on the city wall.

Seeing Deng Long's reaction, the smile on Liu Ye's face couldn't help but get stronger: "General Deng, do you really want to know our identities so much?" ”

Deng Long's face changed, and a sense of foreboding swayed in his heart, and he stared at Liu Ye vigilantly: "What? Could it be that you are really Jinfan thieves? ”

"General Deng guessed half right, we are not thieves, but we are indeed Jinfan!" Liu Ye said with a blank look at him, and shouted, "If you don't do it, when will you !? ”

"Kill !!"

In the next second, the Iron Guard Battalion, which had long been ready to go, rushed to the surrounding Exian defenders who had not come back to their senses like a tiger descending the mountain, and for a while blood splashed, and the screams came one after another, and Zhou Hu was even more ferocious and went straight to Deng Long, and the Exian defenders along the way were all killed under its fierce knife light......
