Chapter 97: Infiltrating the City

"Then it's decided, Miss He and the nephew of the Yan family went to the city to drugged and set fire, and then took advantage of the chaos to open the city gate, and the eldest prince and Miss Mu went to Guyuan to retreat to Pengyang to ambush on the road, let's try to directly encircle those Zhou troops in Guyuan."

After exploring the situation around Guyuan, General Qin assigned tasks to everyone according to the original plan.

He Shuning, who had the best skills, took Yan Nan, who had the most miscellaneous knowledge, the most knowledgeable, and the most intelligent, into the city, and Ji Yongan and Mu Qingyun took a hundred elite soldiers under General Qin to defend the mountain col between Guyuan and Pengyang.

That mountain col was the only way from Guyuan to Pengyang, and because the mountain road during the period was extremely narrow, as long as they blocked the road, Guyuan's Zhou army would fall into a dilemma.

Because they just wanted to get some boulders to block the road, Ji Yongan and Mu Qingyun didn't bring too many people.

At this time, it is still in the territory of Dazhou after all, and if there are too many people going there, it will definitely not be just talking.

Second, General Qin's side really can't squeeze out more manpower, Guyuan is the largest fortress between the Great Zhou and the Great Chu, and the number of soldiers and horses in the Great Zhou here is several times or even more than ten times that of other small states and counties, and General Qin must ensure that his troops are sufficient.

"Be careful with yourselves, Ah Xiao and the good little sister, don't let her get lost." Before leaving, Mu Qingyun, who was dressed in military uniform, told Yan Nanxiao.

She wasn't worried about He Shuning, He Shuning had nothing else to worry about Mu Qingyun except for road idiots and big stomachs, even if He Shuning got lost in Guyuan City, she would definitely be able to let herself continue to make trouble alive, and Yan Nanxiao, who was left by her, was not necessarily.

Although Yan Nanxiao has a good brain and a lot of means, after all, his force value is far inferior to He Shuning, and if someone really wants to find out about his identity as a "spy", Mu Qingyun does not dare to guarantee that he will be able to return safely.

"Don't worry." Yan Nanxiao bowed slightly, he had already made up his mind to watch He Shuning as much as possible, if he couldn't watch it, it would be very simple, where someone in Guyuan City lost something delicious, he went straight there to find He Shuning.

His gaze swept over Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan, "You also have to be careful yourself, the place you are about to go next can be said to be one of the most dangerous places in this war." If you are not careful, you will be flanked by two groups of Zhou troops, and General Qin will not be able to spare troops to support you. ”

Ji Yongan patted Yan Nanxiao's shoulder, "Don't worry, we will definitely make good use of the things you gave me and Senior Sister I." ”

Yan Nan glanced at him, "You'd better do what you say." In the face of life and death, it doesn't matter whether the means are above board or not. ”

Ji Yongan smiled and put out a mouthful of white teeth, "Don't worry, I still have to live to protect my mother and support my sister." Besides, I haven't even married a daughter-in-law yet. ”

As he spoke, he smiled and glanced at Mu Qingyun beside him.

Yan Nanxiao rolled her eyes slightly, "Then you'd better not get hurt, otherwise if you break your appearance, senior sister won't look down on you." ”

Ji Yongan said "hey", "You kid has a crow's mouth!" ”

Mu Qingyun pursed her lips and smiled, "Ah Xiao is right, if you have a scar on your face, then I don't want you." ”

Her voice was very low, and the only people who could hear her joke were He Shuning, Ji Yongan, and Yan Nanxiao.

Ji Yongan looked depressed, and Yan Nanxiao had a wicked smile on his face, but before he could say anything to ridicule Ji Yongan, He Shuning had already intervened.

The little girl patted Yan Nanxiao's shoulder and assured him with a serious face, "I will protect you well, and I will never let your future daughter-in-law have the possibility of disliking you for being ugly." ”

Yan Nanxiao's face was black, but Ji Yongan couldn't stop laughing.

He looked at Yan Nanxiao, who was so depressed that he couldn't go directly to hit the wall, with a sympathetic expression, "Little junior brother, it seems that you still have a long way to go before you achieve your wishes." ”

Yan Nanxiao didn't bother to pay attention to him, don't think that he didn't see the schadenfreude in this thing's eyes.

Stretching out his hand to pull He Shuning to his side, Yan Nan turned around and left without looking back.

He Shuning looked confused - did she say something wrong?

Mu Qingyun shook his head slightly helplessly, "Don't look at the excitement, it's time for us to go." ”

Ji Yongan couldn't straighten his waist with a smile, and Mu Qingyun urged him twice before he rubbed his sour-smiling cheeks and flew on the horse, ready to set off.

***

On the third watch that night, outside Guyuan City, He Shuning carried Yan Nanxiao on his back and quickly climbed up along the city wall.

She had already begun to speed up when she was still about two or three miles away from Guyuan City, and when she arrived at Guyuan City, she and Yan Nanxiao, who was lying on her back, had already turned into a black shadow because of the speed being too fast.

Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, at an angle almost parallel to the city wall, He Shuning stepped on the unevenness of the wall and jumped up again and again.

He Shuning's kung fu is the best, and her strength is great, the ancient city wall of Guyuan City seems to have many steps under her feet, and every time she lands, there will be a shallow, inconspicuous pit on the city wall under her feet.

With such frequent borrowing, He Shuning only took less than ten breaths to take Yan Nan to the top of the city wall.

She moved quickly, her body was as fast as lightning, and before the soldiers who were already a little drowsy at the head of the city noticed that something was wrong, He Shuning had already taken Yan Nanxiao on his back and hid in a dim corner on the side.

This corner is the blind spot of the soldiers on duty, He Shuning took Yan Nanxiao to hide for a while, and then under Yan Nanxiao's gesture, he took her all the way down the city wall.

The two sneaked into the city, and He Shuning was instructed by Yan Nanxiao again, and went all the way to the Zhou army station.

They first ordered the colorless and tasteless medicinal powder specially made by Yan Nanxiao in all the water tanks of the Zhou army camp that can make people start to have crazy stomachs after eating an hour, and then went to the mansion of the prefect of the city to steal a lot of food.

Taking Yan Nanxiao all the way to an abandoned house near the West City Gate, He Shuning stopped.

Yan Nanxiao fetched water and simply cleaned up the soil kang, straw mats, tables and chairs in the house, while He Shuning sat next to the well with a pie and a cheerful face.

When Yan Nanxiao was done, He Shuning was beckoned into the house by him to recuperate.

The two of them lay down in their clothes, and one occupied the shabby straw mat in the house.

He Shuning ate and drank enough and fell asleep quickly, but Yan Nanxiao looked at He Shuning's pretty face who was close at hand, and lost sleep once.

The siege time they agreed with General Qin was an hour and a half after the Zhou army had breakfast, and before that, He Shuning and Yan Nanxiao wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the Zhou army's collective diarrhea to set fire to the city to create chaos.

When the city is completely chaotic, they will take advantage of the chaos to open the west gate of Guyuan City and enlarge the Chu army into the city.
