Chapter 420: Two Birds with One Stone

After Dr. Liang and Chi Lian converged, Chi Lian was very worried about Dr. Liang's situation, after all, she had heard the explosion just now.

Knowing that Dr. Liang blew up Fantu's granary and also delayed the progress of the Fantu army, Chi Lian was also relieved.

"So what are we going to do next?" Red Lian asked.

Dr. Liang thought about it for a while, and decided to gather with the troops first, and before leaving, Dr. Liang made a small mechanism on the road.

I saw that Dr. Liang used an extremely thin wire to connect the two trees on both sides of the road, and then tied a signal flare to one side, as long as the person who spit passed by and broke the line, the signal flare would be launched.

Back on the side of the troops, Ji Wuru was waiting for the two of them very anxiously, and only calmed down after seeing the figures of the two.

As soon as he saw Dr. Liang, Ji ruthlessly asked him with concern if he was injured.

Doctor Liang put his hand on Ji Wuru's head and said, "Don't worry, thanks to the thing you gave me, the granary of Fantu has been blown up, it is estimated that they will not attack today, let's go back to Shixu City first." ”

To be on the safe side, Dr. Liang still left a few fast runners.

After returning to the stone ruins, Dr. Liang found that the high walls around the city were full of people, and checkpoints had been set up at the city gates.

After meeting with the general who defended the city, Dr. Liang told the general everything about the situation just now, and the general immediately laughed happily.

Doctor Liang also learned from the general that not long after they left, a group of disciples of the Huashan faction, the Lingxiao faction and the Hengshan faction came to Shixu, which the emperor was worried about not having enough manpower.

The people standing on the wall were the disciples of these three gangs, and the general had them stay there in order to prevent the Assassins from leaving the city.

The general patted Dr. Liang on the back and said: "It's really beautiful, the granary is the most important thing to send troops to fight, without food, morale will be low, and soldiers don't have the strength to swing weapons." ”

Doctor Liang smiled, "Thank you for the general's praise, but we still can't relax our vigilance now, and it is estimated that the next time the Tu army will all attack together." ”

Subsequently, Dr. Liang and the general continued to discuss countermeasures, and Dr. Liang also told the general what he had observed in the Fantu camp.

The general who defended the city had also experienced many battlefields, and when he learned that this batch of Fantu troops did not look like regular troops, he immediately knew Fantu's intentions.

"Sure enough, this batch of attacks on Stone Ruins City is just a batch of pretenses, if I guess correctly, Fantu's real intention is to guard the border of Shusha Town. The general analyzed.

And Doctor Liang also agreed with the general's speculation, combined with what he knew, and said: "I heard that General Shusha was captured by Yuxi, and the morale of his troops has dropped greatly, if Fantu attacks them at this time, it will definitely be able to break through this layer of defense." ”

The general nodded, and the two of them had the same idea.

Then the general asked, "Then what do you do?"

Dr. Liang held his chin while thinking in a circle, and after a cup of tea, Dr. Liang thought of a solution.

"Since the troops here are a cover, then we will follow their path and let General Susha's troops come and help. ”

"What!?" the general of the city guard looked puzzled.

Doctor Liang explained, "We first deliberately spread the news that we knew the plan for the Fantu sneak attack, and then said that General Susha's troops would come to reinforce them, and if the assassins in the city knew about it, then they would be able to leave obediently." ”

The general asked again, "What about after the Assassins left?"

Doctor Liang sighed and said, "After the assassins leave, they will definitely report this matter, and then it is very likely that Fantu will concentrate all his forces on the border side guarded by General Shusha, and then Shixu City will be safe." ”

After listening to Dr. Liang's words, the general who defended the city nodded slightly and praised: "It's a good move to kill two birds with one stone, but if you just do this, won't the border guarded by Shusha be dangerous?"

Doctor Liang shook his head and said, "Otherwise, after the assassins leave, we will quickly send a letter to the capital, and then transfer all the troops to that side, and we will wait for the Fantu army here to leave, and then quietly follow behind them, so that we can flank them back and forth." ”

After deciding to use Dr. Liang's method, the general guarding the city came to the city gate, while Dr. Liang and the three walked to the wall.

While the general was chatting with the soldiers, he spotted a sneaky figure standing behind him, and the general knew that it was an assassin, so he spoke an octave higher, and then deliberately spread false news.

Soon, the man behind the general nodded slightly, and then walked into the dark alley on the side.

Then, the general looked at Dr. Liang on the wall, and the two looked at each other for a moment, and then they both went their own way.

About half an hour later, there was a sudden commotion in the city, and several men dressed in black jumped onto the roof and ran in the direction of the wall.

Since Dr. Liang had informed the Jianghu disciples guarding the wall in advance, when a few assassins arrived, they defeated a few people and deliberately let one go.

Looking at the figure of the assassin leaving, the corners of Dr. Liang's mouth rose slightly, but after a second, his expression stiffened.

If memory serves, Dr. Liang left a few soldiers in the forest, and if the soldiers killed the assassin, their plans would be in vain.

In desperation, Dr. Liang jumped off the fence and quickly chased the Assassin.

Seeing that someone was chasing him, the assassin quickened his pace, but unfortunately his light skills were not as good as those of Dr. Liang, and he was soon caught up by Dr. Liang.

The two stopped at the top of the tree, and after staring at each other for a few seconds, the Assassin quickly rushed towards Dr. Liang, and the two fought.

Dr. Liang deliberately pretended that his martial arts were not strong, leaving an escape route for the Assassins, but this jump route completely avoided the soldiers who remained in the dense forest.

Soon, Dr. Liang deliberately exposed the flaws, and then let the assassin escape.

Liang breathed a sigh of relief as the Assassins fled according to the route he had envisioned, and he then found the soldiers and told them to return to Stone Ruins City first, while Liang himself went to monitor Fantu's movements.

And during this time, the general who defended the city also wrote a letter and asked people to send it to the capital.

Following the Assassins to Fantu's camp, Dr. Liang noticed that the camp had retreated considerably.

The Assassin found the eunuch he had seen earlier, and then reported everything he had heard to the eunuch, only to see the eunuch show a treacherous expression.

"Good! Go tell the others about this. ”

After the Assassin left, Dr. Liang quietly retreated, but as he retreated, he stepped on a tree branch.
