Chapter 030: Ximen Breaks
Qingchen saw the night death, nodded, handed Master Zhao into his hands, and commanded: "Without further ado, you immediately leave Langcheng with Master Zhao." ”
"Childe, Zhan Yu hasn't come back yet-" Ye Di carried Master Zhao on his back, and was about to jump out of the wall, but before leaving, he turned his head and said to Qingchen, with a vague worry in his eyes.
"Don't worry, tomorrow morning, I'll give you back an intact grip. Qingchen saw that this elm's head was finally a little enlightened, so he couldn't help but laugh.
When Ye Di heard this, he nodded, and was jumped up by this old man Zhao, performed light skills, and soon merged with the vast night and disappeared.
Night Death's light feats are outstanding, as long as he has the intention to avoid pursuit, these soldiers in Langcheng will have absolutely no chance of catching him, not to mention, now that they are unexpected, no one would have thought that she would let people take advantage of the chaos to rob the father of the Langcheng guard.
Qingchen and Huai Jin went out from the back door of the guard's mansion, walked to the alley at the back door, and saw a person walking towards this side from a distance.
"Righteous thoughts are talking about you, are you here, what's going on?" When Huai Jin saw Zhan Yu, the heart that he had been carrying was put down, and he asked.
"Childe, that Taishou was tied up by me in their own cellar, and even if they turned the sky upside down, they would never have imagined that Lord Taishou was still in the Taishou Mansion. Seeing Huai Jin's question, Zhan Yu walked up to Qingchen and said so.
"Well done, tonight will be the most memorable night in the history of Langcheng, because Langcheng, which has always been known as impregnable, is about to become the bag of the Heavenly Star Kingdom. Qingchen nodded approvingly at Zhu Yu, said so, and then led the two sisters towards the west city gate.
The night before yesterday, she asked Huai Jin to drag Zhao Yun with Master Zhao's illness, and she took advantage of the night to go to Zhao Yun's study and saw some important things, in addition to the deployment of troops at several city gates, she also knew that the guards of the west city gate needed Zhao Yun's handwritten letter to be able to mobilize.
So she imitated Zhao Yun's handwriting and wrote a piece of paper, and stamped Zhao Yun's handsome seal, this paper was the most important bargaining chip she used to mobilize the guards of the West City Gate.
Therefore, she arranged for the night to go to the east camp of Langcheng to attack at night during the third watch, burning the grain and grass, arranging for Juyu to go to the Taishou Mansion in the north of the city to kidnap the Taishou, and let the night guard pass the message tomorrow, and at the same time ordered Yu Han to lead the troops to attack the south city gate, a three-pronged approach, creating the illusion that Langcheng had been mixed with the fine work and the enemy army, and even embattled.
Even if Zhao Yun didn't prepare for this banquet tonight, her plan would still not change, but with this banquet, she was thinking about it and temporarily took Master Zhao away for other purposes. Because of these observations over time, she knew that Zhao Yun was indeed a rare general, and it would be a pity to kill him like this, so it was better to subdue him for her own use.
Qingchen and the three of them came to the West City Gate, and sure enough, they saw that the West City Gate was heavily guarded, and the soldiers everywhere were sticking to their posts, in order to prevent the enemy from raiding, the sentry posts were waiting solemnly, even if the city had turned upside down, even if the east, south, and north were in an emergency at the same time, they did not let the guards of the West City Gate panic.
"Zhao Yun is really a talent, the city is in chaos like this, but the West City Gate is still immovable, if it weren't for the fake order in hand, he really didn't dare to let General Chen rashly attack. Qingchen looked at the scene in front of him and spoke.
"Childe, it seems that the general is the leader of the West City Gate, shall we go to him?" said Ji Yu, pointing to a general in armor.
"You wait for me here, and I'll go alone. Qingchen said, casting a reassuring look at Huai Jin and Zhan Yu, and took advantage of the night to walk towards the general on the upper floor of the city.
The black clothes almost blended in with the inky night, only the silver mask on the face, glowing with a faint light in the cold moonlight, gave people a strange feeling.
"What kind of person! The city tower is heavy, and you dare to trespass?" Seeing Qingchen approaching, the general suddenly shouted, so countless soldiers surrounded him from all directions, trapping Qingchen in the middle, and the water could not be drained.
Seeing this, Shuyu's heart tightened, and he was almost about to rush forward to help Qingchen get out of the encirclement, but was stopped by Huai Jin: "Don't be impulsive, so as not to spoil the big thing of the son." ”
Qingchen looked at the soldiers around him without changing his face, and he didn't seem to care about it, took out the order that had been prepared long ago from his sleeve, unfolded it and presented it to the general guarding the city, and said:
"See clearly, this is General Zhao's handwritten order, Langcheng Sanmen is in an emergency, please bring the troops back to the city to support as soon as possible, and those who violate the order will be beheaded. ”
"General Zhao said that the West City Gate is the weakest place in the entire Lang City, and no matter what happens in the city, the West City Gate troops will not be mobilized to reinforce other places. Who are you, dare to talk nonsense here, take it down for me!" When the general heard Qingchen's words, he didn't believe it at all, and waved his hand at the soldiers beside him, and saw those soldiers take a few steps closer to Qingchen.
"General Zhao's handwritten order is here, I have no nonsense, the general will know at a glance!" Qingchen did not resist, but just raised the order in his hand and said so.
"Show it to General Ben. As the general spoke, a soldier took the order from Qingchen's hand and handed it to him.
The general took the order and looked at the torches around him for a long time, first frowned, then looked at Qingchen suspiciously, and asked again: "Who are you? Why has General Ben never seen you?"
"In Xia Muye, he was a guest invited by General Zhao to the General's Mansion, and he was also the life-saving benefactor of General Zhao's father. Qingchen said, "General Zhao's father is riddled with old diseases, and posted a notice to recruit doctors, which coincided with my master and servant passing through Langcheng and going to Nanjun, and the maidservants under happened to know some medical skills, so they unveiled the notice and entered the Shoujiang's Mansion to treat Master Zhao's illness." ”
"General Gao, I have indeed heard that recently, a son with a silver mask has indeed come to the General's Mansion, with a servant girl with excellent medical skills, who has cured the old illness that Master Zhao has been haunted by for many years, could it be the person in front of him?"
"How important is the military aircraft, if it weren't for the urgency of the three gates of Langcheng, General Zhao had no time to separate, and even the soldiers in his hands went to the south gate to defend against the enemy, how could General Zhao hand over such an important order to his subordinates? General Gao, without further ado, if it is too late, I am afraid that the general will stick to the west gate, and it will be useless. Qingchen listened to the soldier's words word for word, and then spoke aloud.
The general, known as General Gao, looked at Qingchen with a complicated expression for a while, and finally seemed to have made up his mind, and turned back and ordered: "Vice General Sun, General Ben led the brothers of the two battalions back to the city for reinforcements, and you lead the others to guard here, there must be no mistake!"
"The last general obeys the order!" the adjutant general surnamed Sun immediately said when he heard this.
General Gao stood at the foot of the city tower, gathered two battalions of soldiers, equivalent to half of the strength of the West City Gate, and then led the men and horses of the two battalions out of the West City Gate and headed towards the northeast of Langcheng.
Qingchen stood in place, looking at the back of General Gao riding away, a mysterious smile flashed on the corner of his mouth, and then turned to Vice General Sun and spoke:
"General Sun, the other three gates of Langcheng are in an emergency, and the West City Gate is now the safest place, and General Sun is guarding here, isn't it missing out on military achievements? If this continues, even if he wins this war, General Sun will not be able to increase his rank and become a knight, and will always be just a deputy general. ”
"What did you say?" Vice General Sun looked at Qingchen and shouted angrily.
"Isn't it? General Gao's thoughts are known to everyone, and only honest people like General Sun can't see it. Qingchen said, "General Gao could obviously stay here by himself and let General Sun lead the troops back to the city for reinforcements, but he just gave himself this opportunity to make meritorious service and let General Sun sit on a cold bench at the West City Gate, which no one cared about." ”
"Do you want to provoke the relationship between the general and General Gao?" Vice General Sun listened to Qingchen's words, and the expression on his face was slightly shaken, but the words he said were different.
"Whether it is provocation or not, General Sun knows it in his heart. If I were General Sun, I would open the West City Gate, detour behind the enemy at the South Gate, cut off the enemy's retreat, and together with the guards at the South Gate, I would attack the enemy in front and back to annihilate the enemy. Qingchen said, "Surprises often lead to big victories." In the following words, what to do, please consider the general. ”
After Qingchen finished speaking, he turned around without hesitation, left the West City Gate, and walked to a place where the soldiers guarding the city could not see, and made peace with Huai Jin and Zhan Yu.
"Childe, how is it?" asked Huai Jin.
"Give General Chen a message, after a cup of tea, attack the west city gate. Qingchen smiled and nodded at Huaijin, then turned his head to Zhiyu and commanded.
But he saw that Zhu Yu took out a firework from his sleeve and rose into the sky in the southwest direction, letting Chen Mo, who was ambushed outside the west gate of Langcheng, know that Qingchen had successfully transferred half of the guards at the west gate and could break through.
"Childe, look, they actually opened the West City Gate by themselves!" After Ji Yu sent the signal, the moment he lowered his head, his eyes widened, and he pointed to the West City Gate not far away, and said in surprise.
"People, they are all greedy. Qingchen sneered and spoke, "If he is greedy for this merit, he will forever lose the opportunity to make meritorious service." ”
Qingchen said so, standing in place, facing the direction of the west city gate, watching the city gate in the night slowly open, like a huge beast opening its bloody mouth, outside the city gate, there was endless darkness, almost as if it was going to swallow everything.
The heavy sound of the city gate was clearly audible in the night sky, and Vice General Sun set off in full gear, rode out of the city with the rest of the men and horses at the west city gate, and disappeared into the vast night, silent in the night.
But just when Vice General Sun's men and horses just left the city, a fire suddenly burned outside the city gate, illuminating the entire night sky above the west city gate, which was unexpected.
"Kill—"
Suddenly, there were bursts of earth-shattering killing sounds in the originally silent night sky, from far and near, accompanied by Dada's horses' hooves, neat and chaotic.
"The enemy is coming—return to the city! We have been tricked!" Vice General Sun realized that he had fallen into the ploy of Qingchen the moment he saw the fires in the sky, and hurriedly led his troops back to the city.
