The night was dark.

Because of Qu Li's order for a curfew in the whole city, the entire Qingyuan County fell into a dead silence after dark, and the streets and alleys were empty, except for the faint light of the dead wind lamps hanging next to the plaques of several inns.

From time to time, groups of soldiers armed with torches patrol back and forth on the streets.

It's just that these soldiers are demoralized because of yesterday's fiasco, and patrolling the streets is just a routine business.

When a group of soldiers turned the corner, a tall figure with two swords flashed in the alley behind them.

This person is none other than Wu Song.

After the successful ambush of the rebels in Tuochuan Valley, he was ordered by General Zhao Xu to lead more than 100 people to dress up in disguise, quietly blend into the rout, and enter Qingyuan County, preparing to wait for the opportunity to open the city gate and lead the army into the city when the imperial army besieged the city.

Due to the fiasco of the rebels, the entire Qingyuan County was panicked, and they were unable to distinguish the identity of the defeated soldiers, but they just roughly put things together.

This gave Wu Song the opportunity to secretly contact a group of his subordinates as much as possible, ready to wait for an opportunity to act.

Wu Song put two fingers in his mouth and blew on his cheeks.

Suddenly, a low crow crow sounded in the alley.

A few moments later, several more crows chirped near the alley.

Looking at the few figures that appeared at the mouth of the alley, Wu Song put his hand on the hilt of the knife and asked in a low voice:

"Heavenly King Cover the Tiger?"

"River Demon Town Pagoda."

Hearing the other party's answer, Wu Song breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the contact code set by His Royal Highness for them before leaving, which is used as a connection.

Although he admired His Highness's thoughtfulness very much, Wu Song felt in his heart that the "Heavenly King Covering the Earth Tiger" should not be the "River Demon Town Pagoda", but the "Pagoda Town River Demon".

But the current situation is not the time for me to think about this minutiae.

"Apart from you, are there any other brothers you have contacted?"

Looking at the several officers and soldiers who came to the front, Wu Song asked softly.

Hearing that it was Wu Song's voice, several people also breathed a sigh of relief, and replied in a low voice:

"General Wu, in addition to our group B, we have also contacted the brothers of groups A and D, but the brothers of groups C and E have not been seen."

Wu Song frowned slightly when he heard this.

His Royal Highness's original intention was for him to gather all the officers and soldiers of the five groups of officers and soldiers who had infiltrated the city after entering the city, and to seize the city gate tonight.

But now there are only these three groups of sixty people, even if they can capture the city gate, I am afraid they will not be able to insist on the arrival of reinforcements.

Ways must be found to keep the rebels in chaos and left themselves to bother in order to gain more time.

Thinking of this, Wu Song gritted his teeth and made a decision in his heart.

"Your Highness asked you to take the city gate tonight, without further ado, I will go to the county government alone to see if I can find an opportunity to kill Naquli, and the three of you will go to seize the east city gate and lead the cavalry of General Lin into the city. As long as they hold out for a moment, these rebels will collapse without a fight. The general also asked your brothers, do you have the courage to guard the city gate with sixty men? ”

Wu Song stared at everyone with a pair of tiger eyes and asked in a deep voice.

Excited by Wu Song's pride, these soldiers glanced at each other and arched their hands:

"General Wu dared to assassinate the thief chief alone, although I don't read poetry and books, I don't know etiquette, but I also know the word loyalty! Please rest assured, before General Lin arrives, as long as I don't die, I will protect the city gate! ”

"Good! Thank you brothers for your righteousness, after this battle, Wu asked His Highness for your merits! Without further ado, you and I will go our separate ways! ”

After that, he clasped his fists and saluted several soldiers, tiptoed a little, and flew in the direction of the county office.

The soldiers glanced at each other, nodded, and hurried towards the east gate.

General Wu Song did not hesitate to go into danger alone for himself, they must not let down the general's hard work, they must take the east city gate, defend it, and guard it until the army comes to help!

After a short time, Wu Song came to an alley not far from the county office, looked in the direction of the county government by the moonlight, and saw two rebels guarding the gate of the county government with guns, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

God has eyes!

On the way, he met Group C who had been sent to patrol the city, and learned from them that the twenty people of Group E had been sent to the horse farm in the south of the county to take care of the dozen or so precious war horses.

Jiangnan lacks horse farms to breed horses, and there is a huge shortage of horses, especially war horses that can fight.

The Miaojiang region is located in the southwest, although it is rich in Yunnan horses that can carry goods, but the Yunnan horses have short legs, can not run fast, and cannot use combat horses, so in Miaojiang, tall war horses are particularly precious.

These dozens of war horses were purchased by Miao Li from Qi State at a great price through Jiang Fangshun's channels and smuggled to Miao Jiang, which can be called Qu Li's heart and soul treasures.

After learning the news, Wu Song immediately made a decision and asked Group C to send someone to inform Group E, and when his side succeeded, he asked Group E to set fire to the horse farm, drive out the frightened war horses to create chaos, and let the soldiers of Group C spread the news of the official army attacking the city everywhere at the same time, increasing the degree of chaos.

Now that everything is arranged, the rest is up to you!

Wu Song exhaled lightly, came out of the alley, and walked in the direction of the county office.

"Don't you know what kind of place this is?"

Seeing someone walking towards the county office, the two guards looked at the tall man who came out of the darkness with sharp eyes, and said coldly.

Wu Song raised his hands high, signaling that he was not hostile, and said with a wry smile:

"Your own people, your own people, the two big brothers are not strange. The younger brother has an urgent military situation, so he has come to report to the marshal. ”

"Who are you bluffing, what an emergency military situation. The handsome are asleep! ”

One of the guards glared impatiently.

"How dare the villain expect to hide from the handsome?" Wu Song lowered his voice and said, "It's a traitor in the army." ”

"What did you say?" Hearing this, the two guards looked at each other, and said urgently, "If you kid dares to lie about the military situation, we will not be happy, and you will not be happy!" Lao Zhang, look at this kid, I'll go in and report to the handsome! ”

After one person dropped a sentence, he hurriedly entered the county office.

Being woken up in his sleep, Qu Li's mood can be imagined, coupled with yesterday's drunkenness and dizziness, his face at this time can almost be hung on ice.

"It's you, saying that there are moles in the city?"

Looking at the big man in front of him, Qu Li frowned and asked.

To be honest, a man of this shape is also rare in his army.

"Returning to the handsome."

In order to win the trust of Qu Li, Wu Song deliberately showed a cringe, like a soldier who met the main general for the first time, but under the lowered head, his eyes were as calm as ice.

He trembled and arched his hand:

An hour ago, the villain was in a hurry to urinate, and it was convenient to go out of the tent to the latrine, but he didn't expect to hear someone in the latrine whispering something to conspire. The villain only heard words like 'open the West City Gate tonight', and then he knew that there were officials and soldiers in the city, and he was afraid that the other party would find out, so he hurriedly came to find the marshal. ”

Officers and soldiers? Isn't it the mole that Fang just said?

Looking at the other party's cringeful look, Qu Li snorted coldly in his heart.

is blind with such a strong body, but he is unexpectedly a cowardless ghost!

However, the news he reported was indeed critical, and he had to take precautions quickly to prevent the officers and soldiers from taking advantage of the night to gain the city.

"Did you hear clearly, is it the West City Gate?" Qu Li asked coldly.

"The villain heard it clearly," Wu Song nodded again and again, "They also said that someone in the city had secretly taken refuge in the official army, and was willing to respond to it." ”

And so it was! Gu Bo, you take the order of the commander, go to the West City Gate, and tell General Shen to keep his eyes open tonight and not let anyone enter or leave the city. ”

Seeing that the guards beside him took over the general order and trotted out of the county office, Qu Li couldn't help but curse secretly.

He knew that as long as he showed a trace of weakness, some of his subordinates would have different minds.

"They also said......"

Hearing the man speak again, Qu Li gradually became a little impatient in his heart.

This man said things, how can he think of lambs, squeezing out section by section, not neat at all?

"Say what?"

"They also said that they would send someone to assassinate the marshal, so that the dragons in the city would be left without an owner."

Wu Song said as he turned sideways slightly, and put his left hand on the hilt of the knife.

"Hahaha, it's a joke. Ben Shuai is here, if he has the ability, let them take Ben Shuai's head! ”

When Qu Li heard this, he looked up to the sky and laughed.

However, in the next moment, with a knife roar like a tiger, a snow-bright sword light came down from above, instantly filling his entire pupil!

Okay, what a fast knife!

With one last thought, Qu Li's consciousness fell into complete darkness.
