"What should the general do now?" In this case, the lieutenant general was completely disorganized and threw all his hopes on his immediate boss.

"This is an enemy attack, what kind of patrol soldiers have been killed by someone, this is a big deal!" General Chen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

No one noticed that General Chen's hand holding the long sword in his right hand trembled slightly.

The general of the city guard for many years, the bloody nature of being a soldier has also been submerged by the stability of the day, and today he once again feels the tip of the knife licking the blood in the past, fighting for his life on the battlefield, General Chen doesn't know why he is so excited.

"General, do you need to inform Taishou-sama immediately?" The adjutant asked.

"As long as there is no problem with the city gate, there is no big problem, and now the warning drum at the city gate has not sounded, and there should have been no problem with the city gate, so I immediately led the soldiers to the city gate!" General Chen stood up and said in a deep voice.

"What about me, General?" The adjutant asked.

"There are two warning drums in the city, one is at the head of the city, and the other is in the Taishou Mansion, you immediately go back to the city guard camp to send soldiers to let go of the Taishou Mansion, and once the situation is not right, immediately sound the warning drum in the Taishou Mansion!" General Chen gradually regained his senses and said in a deep voice.

"Yes! Checkmate! The lieutenant said.

"You two, follow me back to the barracks!" The adjutant quickly nodded to the two soldiers and said.

"The rest of the people will follow me to the city!" General Chen pulled out the long sword at his waist, and raised the long sword above his head and said.

"Yes, General!" The other soldiers shouted.

"Lord, the front is the county seat of Wu County!" The general on the side said.

"The torches on the city are only half lit, this is a sign that the dark guard has succeeded!" Xu Zhao said to himself.

"Lord, our engineering equipment has been pulled, let's push the catapult up first!" The general on the side suggested.

"No catapults!" Xu Zhao said confidently.

"Lord, why is that?" The general on the side was confused when he heard this.

"When the time comes, the gates of cumin will be opened, and the soldiers will prepare to attack!" Xu Zhao said in a deep voice.

"Yes! Lord! Although he didn't understand what his lord meant when he said that the city gate would open by itself, the general did not hesitate to follow Xu Zhao's order.

The troops led by Xu Zhao had already come out of the teleportation array, and the location where the teleportation array arrived was also in a cottage.

This cottage is also a secret garrison cottage of Xu Zhao, but there are only 2,000 soldiers in this cottage, and the reason for the small number is that this is the closest to the county seat, and in order to prevent being discovered, only a small number of soldiers can be stationed.

And it can't be disguised as a bandit cottage, this was originally a cottage, and it was later abandoned after being leveled by the soldiers of Wu County.

This is an excellent place to garrison soldiers, and these two thousand soldiers go out day and night, which is to make the officers and soldiers think that this is an abandoned bandit cottage.

The task of the 2,000 soldiers of this cottage is to build a teleportation array box at night, and the escort work after the construction of the teleportation array is completed.

After arriving at the destination of the teleportation array, Xu Zhao immediately left the cottage in a hurry and came to the county town.

Xu Zhao is still leading 10,000 cavalry, and the rest of the soldiers are all foot soldiers.

Not to mention the cost of building a teleportation array, just these 10,000 cavalry are not something that ordinary forces can come up with.

Yangzhou does not produce horses, and the significance of these 10,000 war horses can be imagined.

When leaving the rapid march from the teleportation array, the horses' hooves were used in advance to avoid making a sound

Cloth wrap to avoid making noise when walking.

When the soldiers marched in a hurry, they also bit a small branch in their mouths, so as not to make any noise.

In the end, Xu Zhao's 150,000 troops had quietly assembled in front of the county seat of Wu County.

There is a feeling of "black clouds crushing the city and wanting to destroy it".

"As soon as the county seat of Wu County is broken, the subordinate counties will be at a loss, and most of Wu County will fall into the hands of the county seat!" Chen Gong said with a twist on the side.

"My target tonight isn't just the city of Wu County!" Xu Zhao said in a deep voice.

"Tomorrow, the news of my rebellion will be quickly spread to my brother's county, and when the time comes, it will not be as simple as tonight!"

"After entering the city, no soldier is allowed to kill civilians for no reason, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!" Xu Zhao said in a deep voice.

"Yes, my lord!"

On the road only one street from the city guard camp.

"Quick, we have to inform the city guard camp as soon as possible, I'm afraid there will be something wrong in the city today!" The lieutenant general and two soldiers ran quickly through the streets.

"There seems to be a situation ahead!"

Hearing the adjutant general's words, the two soldiers also stopped and clenched the spears in their hands.

"It's over there, there seems to be a situation over there!" The lieutenant drew the long sword at his waist, and the blade pointed in one direction and said.

"General, there's nothing!" Wait for the two soldiers to approach the place pointed by the adjutant general.

"Is there no situation?" The adjutant general was somewhat unconvinced.

"General, you really don't see anything here!" One of the soldiers said.

"Didn't you?" The lieutenant came closer to see.

"General, you ......" The soldier had been stabbed in the abdomen by the adjutant.

"You ............." The other soldier was wiped on the neck as soon as he understood what was going on.

The lieutenant's sword rubbed against the clothes of the two soldiers who fell to the ground, wiping the blood from the swords.

"It's time!" The lieutenant looked up at the sky, and tonight's moon was covered by dark clouds, revealing only a crescent.

After saying that, the adjutant dragged the bodies of the two soldiers into the shadows.

What General Chen, who was hurrying to Chengtou, didn't know was that his lieutenant didn't report at all.

"Quick! Hurry up! General Chen ran quickly, and the armor pieces on his armor made a rustling sound.

Came under the city gates.

"General, the city gate seems to be fine!" A soldier muttered.

"Let's go! Go to town! Seeing that all the defenders of the city gate below were there, General Chen's heart was relieved for the most part.

"Stop, who is it!"

"City Guard Night Guard Captain Chen Li!" Halfway up the stairs, the group was stopped.

"I've seen General Chen!" The guards let him go immediately.

"Nothing happened tonight!" Chen Li asked in a deep voice.

"Look at what the general said, what can happen, everything is normal tonight." The guard said with a smile.

"In addition to a lot of things in the city, tell the defenders of the city gate below to strengthen their vigilance!"

"Yes, General Chen!"

Chen Li climbed to the top of the city and looked around, everything seemed to be normal on the top of the city.

"What about you lieutenants?" Chen Li shouted.

"I am!"

"You're the captain of the city tonight, everything is normal tonight, is there anything wrong?" Chen Li asked, and then looked at the lieutenant in front of him with a torch

。

"General, everything is normal in the city tonight!" The lieutenant bowed his head and said.

"It's okay, there is a big incident in the city, there must be no mistakes in the city gate today, and the city guards will send soldiers to strengthen the guards in a while!" Chen Li said.

"General, what's going on in the city!" The lieutenant asked.

"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, there will be no accident at the city gate tonight, please do anything else!" Chen Li patted Du Lieutenant's shoulder and said.

"Eh, why are your torches and lanterns only half lit!" Chen Li looked around and suddenly asked.

"General Hui, when we changed the guard, it was already like this, I think it should be the last team that wants to save some fuel." The lieutenant arched his hand and said.

"When is it, still save! Light me all the torches and lanterns! Chen Li commanded.

"It's the general!" The lieutenant arched his hand and said.

"Light the lanterns and torches, quick!" The lieutenant commanded.

"You look fresh, you just got here!" Chen Li said.

"General Huiyu, it was transferred a few days ago!" The lieutenant said cautiously.

A few days ago, it was the time when the city guards and some soldiers of Dantu County moved each other.

According to Liu Fu's order, the city guards guarding the county seat are all elite soldiers and strong generals drawn from the subordinate counties, and they will be replaced in two years.

The first few talks were the days of transfer, and Chen Li knew about it, and he didn't suspect it.

Wu Jun did a good job of implementing Liu Fu's decision, but Xu Zhao's Huiji County did not implement it all depending on the mood.

"I'll tell you the truth, my family is Dantu, and I haven't been back for a long time!" Chen Li suddenly sighed.

After patrolling around the city, everything was normal, and the deputy general had already been sent to inform the city guards, and Chen Li had now begun to relax his vigilance.

Now the most urgent should be the general of the city guard, his duty as a night guard captain has been fulfilled anyway, and it is estimated that the city guard is now searching all over the city.

Chen Li thought to himself.

"The villain's hometown is not Dantu's, it is from Huiji Shanyin County, and later followed the caravan to Dantu, and then it was just in time to recruit soldiers!" The lieutenant said politely.

"That's a pity, by the way, you said you came from Huiji?" Chen Li said.

Hearing Chen Li say this, Du Wei's right hand couldn't help but clench, but there was still a polite expression on his face.

The surrounding guards are quietly ready, and once the lieutenant gives the order, it will be another fight.

Chen Li shook his neck: "I heard that you are too good at guarding Xu Zhao, that is a ruthless person!" ”

Hearing this, the captain's clenched right hand slowly loosened.

"That's right, our Taishou is Lord Xu!" The lieutenant said cautiously.

"I heard that Xu Zhao didn't even give much face to Lord Shi of the state capital!" As soon as Chen Li heard that this was a joke, he immediately ignited the fire of gossip about Xu Zhao.

"Yes, it is said outside that Xu Zhao is in Huiji, that is the emperor of the soil, and the order of the state government is no match for Xu Zhao's words!" The soldiers behind Chen Li also interjected.

"I heard that Xu Taishou has indeed not been to the regular meeting of the state capital much, and the order of this state capital is really not as effective as Xu Taishou's words!" The lieutenant said with a smile.
