Chapter 229: Suspected
Back on the city wall, Feng Ming saw Zhou Zheng's face with a thick look of worry.
"President Zhou, what's wrong with you? It's so late and you still don't go to sleep? ”
"My lord, I can't sleep! Was that person the commander of the Yin Army just now? You really shouldn't have met him in private! ”
"So that's what you're worried about. Rest assured! I am the same kind of person as him, public is public, private is private, and I will not confuse public and private. ”
"I trust you, but I'm afraid someone will make a fuss about this."
"Don't worry! We just have to defend Jinling City, and we don't have to think about the rest, don't you think I'm going to fight for this great credit?
The credit is yours, not mine. Even if the royal court gives you a reward, it will be for you, not mine. ”
"I'm relieved that adults can think of it like this. It's the middle of the night, and I won't sleep anymore, so I'll stand here with you! It's a rare night like this. ”
The next morning, the sun rose as usual. Once again, the two sides returned to a tense standoff.
In the handsome tent of the ghost town, Bai Ye instructed one of his subordinates: "Revoke the formation of the men and horses besieging that side, and all the ghosts and spirits are withdrawn."
I promised him not to attack today, but that doesn't mean he can't use his strategy. If he doesn't get through, it can only mean that his fate is not good and he is not worthy of being my opponent for Yebai. ”
"No!" The Yin General had no doubts about his words and immediately carried them out.
In the distance, in the camp where General Pei and Lord Yu were located, the two of them were obviously a few years older.
One of them was worried for the people, and the other was worried for himself. Anyway, no matter who they are worried about, the expressions of the two people are exactly the same.
"Report! Emergency military intelligence! ”
General Pei was already immune to the herald, and he nodded mechanically, asking the herald to report the contents.
"General, good news, the formation that besieged us has disappeared, and those ghosts and ghosts are also retreating after them."
"What! You repeat. General Pei's gloomy gaze suddenly regained his brilliance, and he also stood up with a "poof" as he leaned.
The herald did not dare to procrastinate, but repeated the previous words.
"Could it be that Jinling City has been breached? Their purpose has been achieved, and they have canceled the formation that besieged us? General Pei's expression changed again.
"General Hui, Jinling City should still be there. It is also not known whether they are conscious or unconscious. Some soldiers heard the retreat of the ghost-level ghosts and said that Jinling City was still there, and the Yin army was on a par with our army, and now the two sides have entered a state of confrontation. ”
"What! Could it be that reinforcements have arrived in Jinling City? General Pei's face finally showed a slight joy.
"Good! Chao'er is right, Tang Anzhen sent someone to help us. It's just that I don't know if any of the people he sent have invited a strong person to the princely realm. ”
"Quick! Passing on my command, all 1,000-strong regiments immediately approached me and hurried back to Jinling City! ”
"You also immediately go to contact Chao'er, and ask him to withdraw all the people on the Juyang Great Array, and go back with us to support Jinling City."
A quarter of an hour later, the dust billowed from the place. According to General Pei's marching route, the army rushed to Jinling City in a roundabout way.
At noon, the defenders in charge of the north gate of Jinling City saw a group of people rushing towards him from a distance.
"Ring the alarm, there is an enemy attack!"
"Wait a minute, look at that banner, it seems to be our people, and the general, it seems to be General Pei." The person with good eyesight immediately stopped the man.
"Huh? It's General Pei! But aren't they trapped in the place where the Devil's Calamity has erupted? How did it end up on our side? Could it be the conspiracy of the Yin people? ”
"Nope! I don't see it. No matter what General Pei says, he is also a veteran of a hundred battles, maybe he used some method to kill a bloody road.
It's just that in the face of ten earthen walls, even if they want to enter the city, they can't get in! ”
General Pei, who was marching at the forefront of the troops, saw at first glance the earthen wall rising from the ground and surrounding Jinling City.
As soon as he saw the earthen wall, he had a rough judgment as to why Jinling City had not fallen.
"Herald, immediately let the literati of our army use the cangmu talisman, and we will directly build a wooden bridge to go over."
A moment later, a green light lit up in the vast procession, and one after another of the trees shot out from the ranks, neatly and orderly in a row, and set up on the earthen wall.
When the wooden bridge was erected, the army also rushed to the bottom of the earthen wall. They followed the wooden bridge to the earthen wall, and then, slowing down, carefully moving slowly on the wooden bridge.
They are very confident in the earthen wall, but once the frequency of resonance reaches a certain level, I am afraid that even a solid earthen wall will collapse in an instant.
An hour later, General Pei's men and the men and horses of Lord Yu entered Jinling City.
Returning here again, Yu Longhu couldn't be happier. The old face recovered a lot in an instant.
"Who, tell me, who led you to defend Jinling City so well?" Yu Longhu was happy, pointed to the person closest to him, and opened his mouth to ask.
"It's a military advisor, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid we would have been captured by the Yin army a long time ago."
"Strategist? The military advisor you are talking about, but is it called Fengming? As soon as General Pei heard the word "military advisor", his eyes immediately lit up.
"Yes, general, it is the Fengming military division."
Seeing that Feng Ming's reputation and momentum continued to spread throughout the army, even the people on his side began to show their expectant eyes on Feng Ming.
Tang Chao, who claimed to be a genius, couldn't control it anymore and said: "If I am here, I can also defend Jinling City as impregnable." ”
Originally, he wanted this sentence to attract everyone's attention and attention, but who would have thought that no one would pay attention to him.
Just as he was about to get angry, a figure quickly jumped in front of him and whispered to him, "Young Master, I've finally waited for you." I have important information to report to you. Last night..."
When the servant finished telling the information, Tang Chao laughed happily. He smiled as he walked towards where General Pei was standing.
This time, his behavior really attracted everyone's attention. All who noticed him wanted to know what exactly he was going to do.
"General Pei, I suspect this is a bureau at all. In order to catch us all. According to the information I just received, last night, the Fengming military division and the Yin man commander were under the moonlit night, drinking wine, chatting about Xiaotian, and getting along happily.
Let me ask, if you don't know each other, can you drink and talk in such harmony?
The Yin army is so ferocious, can it be that just a few earthen walls can stop them?
General, I think it's necessary to invite Feng Ming over now and confront him face to face. In addition, the defense deployment of Jinling City should also be rearranged. ”
Tang Chao's words immediately made the scene very quiet, and the thought of doubt suddenly rose in everyone's hearts.
