In the south of Suzhou City, Jingyue Lake Wharf, which connects the wharf of Suzhou City, is no worse than Yangzhou Wharf, and with the wharf as the center, the wharf cargo store market town that extends out is also quite charming.

But in fact, this Suzhou dock area was groaning and roaring in a raging fire, and countless warehouses at Bali Wharf were swallowed by the flames that swallowed the sky, collapsed, turned into a spark, and flew into the sky.

And outside the city of Suzhou, on a huge guard tower temporarily built with timber near the wharf, the wicker recruit's eyes looked at the flame without blinking, the scorching heat wave came from afar, and the armor on his body was flushed with red, but the wicker recruiter guard did not move, but the constantly stirring brow showed that his heart was dripping blood.

Wicker Shinbei is from a traditional samurai family, and his surname only represents a lowest-level samurai family in the Sakura family, with 500 stone of food, hundreds of acres of land, and 20 warriors in the family, under the command of the Sakurai family of the Sakura Eight Gate Guards.

He is a samurai under the name of Fusang Sakura, he should be regarded as a small landowner, but his living situation is not as good as the level of an ordinary weaver in Suzhou City, those high-ranking families and large courtyards in Suzhou City are more luxurious and spacious than the cherry blossom city of the cherry blossom name in his eyes.

And the silk and satin that cost the same amount of gold in Fuso was a luxury that a low-ranking samurai like him could not reach, and he remembered that only his mother had a dress made of this silk, which was a kimono that had been passed down from generation to generation by the women of his family.

However, in front of his eyes, the silk that was full of warehouses and treasures in his home burned in the fire and turned into ashes

You don't have to wait until the annual festival to take it out solemnly, "I'm afraid of being broken, and it's no problem to wear a silk kimono every day!"

However, Sakurai-sama's order can't help but be executed, and it is estimated that now Tamoto, those guys in the well are also in the same mood as him!

The burning Suzhou dock was devoured by the flame demon and turned into ashes, and at the head of Suzhou City, Sakurai Shoichi was also dripping blood in his heart, but he couldn't help but do this, Suzhou City spent a day, and finally took down the four city gates and held Suzhou City in his hands.

However, this Suzhou pit is like a chestnut burned in a charcoal fire, and there is scorching heat on it, Leng Zhuo's guess is right, the power in Sakurai Masai's hand is not strong, itself, he did not plan to take Suzhou City in this attack, but borrowed the attack on Suzhou City, contain the soldiers and horses of Suzhou City and the surrounding empires, so as to facilitate the rear army to quickly seize the riverside and coastal areas.

They came to plunder this time, and it was secondary to conquer the city, and it was only when they took the place and transported it back to put it in their pockets, so to speak, although the Penglai Islands annihilated the Penglai Naval Army, but for the empire, the Sakura family actually maintained a certain amount of awe

Therefore, when formulating the plan, the Sakura family's plan was to plunder the Linhe County and Haizhou County along the Tianhe River in Suzhou Prefecture, as well as Changzhou County completely by the sea, and if possible, they would plunder other counties along the coastline, so that they would not penetrate eight hundred miles inland into the empire at most, and even if the imperial army was left, they could quickly retreat above the sea.

Plundering is one thing, but Sakura Mingzhi also knows that his subordinates can't break too much jade here in the empire, otherwise even if they loot a lot of materials and property, it will be more than worth the loss, after all, elite soldiers are very precious, especially for a chaotic island that has been fighting for five hundred years.

But the plan is far from catching up with the rapid change, the plan is difficult to seize the city of Suzhou was easily broken, after easily taking a city gate, Sakurai Shoichi hesitated for a piece of Shu, and made a more daring move, sent ninjas to assassinate the city officials, generals, and then tentatively towards the city of Suzhou, unexpectedly, everything went surprisingly, almost driven, slaughtered the defenders, and captured the other three gates.

Happiness is too fast, Sakurai Shoichi finally regained his composure after a period of dizziness, while sending people to contact the cherry blossom army in the rear, and on the other hand, he began to arrange Suzhou City guards, because his subordinates only have three thousand, but the number of ninjas is relatively large, there are thousands of people, but in comparison, Suzhou City is still too big, three thousand people are a point, barely able to hold four gates, and for the city he can't divide many manpower at all, not to mention that he has to send a large number of forces to scatter around to investigate the situation.

At noon today, a force in the city suddenly forcibly broke through the south gate, caught off guard, and the city guards who lacked strength couldn't stop it at all, so they were killed by the other party and ran to the southeast, and he quickly got rid of some people in Suzhou City. In that direction, only a few dozen miles away at the foot of a mountain, is the Suzhou Navy camp, if you hurry up, you can definitely go back and forth in no more than a day.

The soldiers and horses did not move before, it may be that the situation is unknown, so they dare not act rashly, but if the people who broke through the siege tell their truth and truth, when the time comes, the surrounding emperors will definitely rush wildly, and with the strength of less than 3,000 troops in his hands now, if he wants to hold the huge Suzhou City, it is difficult to defend the huge Suzhou City.

Qing is the rebel family in the city, he really can't take more strength, the city is still chaotic, outside the city is facing the possible arrival of the emperor, scattered four gates, soldiers and horses everywhere in Suzhou City! The power is too scattered, but if you want this city, it is impossible not to send troops everywhere, he can only mine and pray now, the emperor ** night by a day, and the army of the Sakura family by a day early, so that this city in Yangzhou ranked top three will fall into the hands of the Sakura family, as long as it is emptied here, the wealth obtained by the Sakura family is enough to sweep away the great names of all roads and achieve immortal hegemony.

For this plan, Sakurai had to order fire prevention and burn down the pier in the south of the city, and the fire in the south of the city could burn for at least two days and two nights, so that the pressure on the defense could be reduced a lot.

Sakurai's fire can be said to be burning at the right time, starting from the waterway, going straight to Suzhou City, the Suzhou Water Battalion 3,000 soldiers and horses drove the warship from Jingyue Lake to the Suzhou Wharf, but more than ten miles away, you can see the dark night, the sky-high fire.

Standing on the top of a big ship, looking at the sky in the distance, a red fire, Zhou Yu slapped the railing fiercely, and said: "The other party put a fire on the dock, this fire is estimated to have burned the entire dock, we have to find another place to dock!"

Leng Zhuo was also silent, although it was just a fire, but it had a big impact on them, there was no dock, although they could also find a place to land, but it was more than ten miles away from Suzhou, by land, it was easy to be ambushed by the other party, and the bed crossbows on the ship, catapults, etc., were difficult to carry off the ship, that is to say, they lost their remote equipment.

Suzhou City is a big port, surrounded by the city wall, the other party has few soldiers and horses, they are also not many, and they are all lightly armored water pawns, the other party has a city defense to defend, although Leng Zhuo has four major guards under his command, as well as a king-level monster mount, but Leng Zhuo did not dare to take it lightly, Li Yuanba's crotch under the Lei Jin sniper beast was originally summoned by the Dongyi ninja.

Without the help of siege equipment, the attack on Suzhou City may become a stalemate, and the delay time is obviously not good for them, maybe the people do not understand the soldiers and horses in Yangzhou, but they can not understand, Yangzhou gathered soldiers and horses, in the killing, don't think about it for three or five days, from the distance, it is obvious that the distance of the army of the people is closer, so the speed of the ride is faster, and at that time, the influence of Suzhou City in whose hands is very far-reaching.

Leng Zhuo has never been to Suzhou, so it is not easy to look like a Suzhou wharf, but the wharf in Xiangyang City is made of bluestone: "Gongjin, is the Suzhou wharf wooden or stone!"

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, Wu Ran was a little puzzled, but still said: "Of course it's made of stone, and it's quite a few years, but the cultivation is very good, even if it is used for another hundred and ten years, there is no problem!

"If it's made of stone, then go straight to the docks!"

Zhou Yu groaned slightly, and said, "Is the young master planning to force a path out of the sea of fire?"

"Yes!"

Sitting on Tiger Mountain, Suzhou Water Camp, although the soldiers and horses that can be drawn in the camp have been withdrawn, but there are still some people left to guard the camp, and the prefect Wu Chang is also dispatched with the army, but the family members are all temporarily placed in the camp.

Without thousands of sailors, the water camp became unusually quiet, and just before dusk, from a dirt road under Zahu Mountain, there was a rush of horses' hooves.

"Whoever is the passenger, report the name, or the crossbow will be released!" shouted the guard soldier to the dozens of horsemen galloping towards him. On top of the wooden village, the crossbow arrows on several crossbow towers quickly put on the bowstring, put on the thick crossbow arrows, and aimed at the comers. Look at the update to post it

"Don't do it, I'm the head of the Bai family in Suzhou City, Bai Yu, I'm here to ask to see you Shui Yingtong!"

When the captain of the guards heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and said: "I have seen the head of the Bai family once, you stand up and stop, and the head of the Bai family comes up in person, let me identify it!"

"Okay!" Bai Yu said and waved his hand to stop the team, and rode forward alone.

"Sure enough, it's the head of the Bai family, come here, quickly open the gate of the village and let people in!" What is the status of the Bai family in Suzhou City, the woman in the captain's family has also signed a contract with the Bai family, and she can exchange a lot of silver taels from the Bai family with woven cloth every month, so he still has a good impression of the Bai family.

"Bai family master, you have broken through the siege, the situation in the city is fine!" Seeing that the blood stains on Bai Yu's body were still new, it was obviously killed after a bloody battle.

"If there are no reinforcements, it's not good, this time I came here to find your family commander to take the army!"

"You think this may have been missed, the commander of my family, the Marquis of Ping'an, and the prefect of Suzhou, Lord Wu, led the camp to Suzhou City by boat more than an hour ago, but it was a waterway, but it was a fork!"

"It's already gone!" Bai Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, seeing that it was really right for his mother to let him come:

"Ping'an Hou, but that Ping'an Hou in Chuzhou?" At this moment, Bai Shuang, who was behind Bai Yu, suddenly asked.

"That's right, Ping'an Hou came back in the afternoon with the commander of my family, and then gathered the soldiers and horses and went straight to Suzhou!"

"Can you help us arrange a boat so we can take the waterway back to Suzhou City!" Bai Shuang said.

"Yes, please come with me!"

"Cousin, how do you know that Ping'an Hou?".
