Chapter 574: Empty City
I have to say that the current Sun Quan is really a little floating. In other words, the martial arts are high, and the courage is also greater.
In the past, although Sun Quan also took risks, he was either forced to do so, or he already had a great deal of certainty. For example, if you have a thorough understanding of the layout and patrol on the city wall, you can also pass through the city wall without using skill simulation, just like leaving your own camp. But just now, the first and second illusions, Sun Quan hadn't figured out the rules, but he passed the third illusion inexplicably. This kind of coincidence, just like when you get a multiple-choice question right during the exam, are you confident that you will not make a mistake when you encounter similar questions in the future?
As a result, now, Sun Quan is relying on the favor of this goddess of luck, and he dares to go to Longtan Tiger's Den to break through!
Due to the time-sensitive nature of the illusion, especially for patrols on the city walls, a few seconds between the two fronts and backs can be wrong. Sun Quan didn't find the law now, and it was impossible to wait for the next node to pass, so he could only follow the step-by-step process, and before it was far from twelve o'clock, there was still a short time before the next day's skill refresh, Sun Quan rashly passed the patrol of the city wall and sneaked into the dangerous Huaiyin City.
Entering Huaiyin City, everything after that went very smoothly. It's not because Sun Quan simulated it in advance, but there are really few guards in Huaiyin City today. Lu Bu did not have many soldiers and horses left in Huaiyin, and before Sun Quan's army came, Lu Bu could still divide people to maintain order in the city, but when Sun Quan's army pressed the border, Lu Bu sent almost everyone to the city wall in order to stabilize the city.
Therefore, along the way, Sun Quan didn't encounter anything, and arrived at the very center of the city very simply. However, after successfully arriving outside the city mansion, for the sake of prudence, Sun Quan honestly found a remote place and quietly waited for the arrival of twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
Finally, in the spiritual world, let me think twice about the refresh of skills, Sun Quan's spirit was shocked, knowing that a new day had arrived, whether he could successfully assassinate Lu Bu, whether he could seize the skills that belonged to Lu Bu, and soon the answer would be revealed!
As a result, when Sun Quan was full of interest, used his first skill of the day, and happily wanted to do a big job, in the end, he ushered in a scene that made him extremely confused.
No one in the City Lord's Mansion?!
Yes, this city lord's mansion is as deserted as the street where no one is around, although it is a bit of an exaggeration to say that there is no one, but Sun Quan believes that this huge city lord's mansion has no more than fifty people in total! In other words, there were only a few subordinates left, not even a decent guard. Lu Bu was injured, and when he needed protection the most, he wouldn't even leave a guard?
So, Lu Bu isn't actually here either?!
In the illusion, in order to verify this unbelievable discovery, Sun Quan even deliberately revealed his whereabouts and identity, deliberately attracting the city guards, but even so, until the end of the illusion time, Sun Quan was unable to see Lu Bu.
What the hell is going on?
Sun Quan firmly believed that even if Lu Bu was really seriously injured, when he learned that his enemy Sun Quan was surrounded by layers of people alone, and it was difficult to fly, Lu Bu would inevitably show up. This means that for so long after he deliberately exposed his whereabouts, Lu Bu didn't get any news about him, could it be that Lu Bu was not in Huaiyin at all!
This is, the legendary empty city plan?
For a moment, Sun Quan couldn't believe it. As the saying goes, hooligans are not scary, but they are afraid that hooligans are educated. This reckless Lu Bu, when did he learn to use scheming strategies?
At this moment, Sun Quan is at least one thing that he is absolutely sure of. That is, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to calculate in advance that he will sneak into Huaiyin City. Therefore, there was no one in the City Lord's Mansion, not deliberately for Sun Quan to see, but there was no one in the City Lord's Mansion in the first place. So far, there are only two possibilities in front of Sun Quan.
1. Lu Bu was very cautious, although he was in Shouchun, he hid in an undisturbed place and secretly recuperated from his injuries. No matter what happened outside, even if Sun Quan appeared in the city, no one bothered him. Even except for a few cronies, others didn't know where Lu Bu was.
Second, Lu Bu was not in Huaiyin at all, and Sun Quan's intelligence made a serious mistake. Lu Bu may have concealed everyone, but in fact, he had already followed the army and returned to Xiapi!
Boy!
Even Sun Quan had to admit that Lu Bu was really calculating. If everything is as usual and there are no accidents, maybe he was really fooled by Lu Bu, but who would know that Sun Quan would have the ability to allow me to think twice, and who would have thought that Sun Quan would dare to sneak into Huaiyin City.
Therefore, this Lu Bu's good strategy, I can't say, but in the end, I will lift a stone and shoot myself in the foot!
In an instant, Sun Quan already had a plan in his heart. However, before that, Sun Quan couldn't help but use his skills again, secretly arrested a few squad leaders, and interrogated them privately, confirming that including these people, he hadn't seen Lu Bu for a long time. As for where Lu Bu is, it is even more unknown.
It's just that, maybe it's Lu Bu's good operation, deceiving others and deceiving themselves first, although these team leaders haven't seen Lu Bu for a long time, they all firmly believe that Lu Bu is indeed in Huaiyin City. Yes, if even these middle and lower classes don't think that Lu Bu is in Huaiyin, how can the Sun family's intelligence network be deceived? This matter, I'm afraid that in Lu Bu's camp, is an extremely confidential matter.
So, although Sun Quan failed to successfully assassinate Lu Bu as planned, after getting this information, the trip was not too disappointing. It's just that if Lu Bu wasn't in Huaiyin, it was likely that he would really have returned to Xiapi. It's a lot more difficult!
With these thoughts in mind, Sun Quan kept the last skill guarantee of the day, returned the same way, and went out of the city. All the way through the city, and finally arrived at the city wall, Sun Quan did not use his skills again. As I said a long time ago, for a master like Sun Quan, it is not too easy to cross the city wall without the enemy being prepared, and the biggest difficulty is not to be discovered. When he entered the city, Sun Quan was worried about being discovered, so he was cautious, but it was different when he went out of the city, what if he was discovered? Could this group still be able to stop him?
That's right, the city guards were already guarding outside but not inside, and in the face of Sun Quan, who suddenly came out of the city, many soldiers were caught off guard. And the most important thing is that this group of people didn't recognize Sun Quanlai, and of course they didn't think that Sun Quan would come out of Huaiyin City. After being caught off guard by such a sudden burst out of the city, the soldiers on the city walls did not react excessively, and after a simple riot, everything returned to normal.
Soon, Sun Quan returned to his home base.
And waiting for him was Wu Jing, who was almost ready to lead his troops to Huaiyin. Seeing this, Sun Quan secretly said badly, it seems that Wu Jing is also worried that he will secretly run to assassinate Lu Bu, otherwise, in the middle of the night, Sun Quan will only disappear for a short time, and it is impossible to be discovered so quickly.
"Zhongmou! Where have you been?! Wu Jing glared angrily, rarely seeing him angry like this.
On the one hand, Wu Jing is his elder, and on the other hand, Sun Quan is also at a loss this time. Seeing Wu Jing's reaction, where did Sun Quan dare to tell the truth, even if he returned safely now, so Sun Quan could only touch his nose and lie,
"I'm just going to see a friend."
"Friends?" Wu Jing's eyes narrowed, "It's the middle of the night, in the wilderness, you won't tell me that you have friends in Huaiyin City!" ”
At this moment,
"General Wu, you misunderstood, he actually came out to pick me up."
