"General Yang, how can you be willing to open the city gate?" After waiting for a long time, Yangjiang City still had no intention of opening the city gate, and Tuoba Lu couldn't help but feel anxious.

Yangjiang City hesitated and said, "General Tuoba Lu, it's not that it's impossible for Yang to open it, but it's because he doesn't dare to come. Before the identity of the army behind you is confirmed, Yang doesn't dare to open the city gate easily."...

"General Tuoba Lu, I'm offended." Yangjiang City offered his hand to apologize, but this move made Tuoba Lu even more anxious.

Even Shi Tianzong, who had been silent next to him, couldn't help but become anxious when faced with this situation.

"General Yang, is there anyone who has returned from Xingyuan Mansion?" Tuoba Lu suddenly asked.

"What does General Tuoba Lu mean?" Yangjiang City paused slightly, "Does Tuoba Lu want them to confirm their identity?"

"That's exactly what I meant!" Tuoba Lu nodded in response.

When Yangjiang City heard this, he hesitated for a moment, and then asked the person next to him, "Has anyone returned from the battlefield in the past few days?"

"Back to the general, General Li Guodong and Li are the people who returned from the front line. Why don't we go and invite him over now?" the person next to him immediately replied.

"Wait a minute!" Yangjiang City was not in a hurry to let him go.

"General Tuoba Lu, General Li Guodong is in the city, please ask me to send someone to invite him over..." Yangjiang City looked at Tuoba Lu again and stared at him.

"Then there is General Laoyang." Tuoba Lu panicked after hearing this. In order to prevent his mistakes from being exposed, he finally had to bite the bullet and agree. But if Li Guodong was really called out, then Li Guodong would definitely be able to see that this

The army is not Tuoba Xiong's team, and they will also reveal their secrets when the time comes.

"How to do how to do…"

Tuoba Lu was extremely anxious and subconsciously looked at Shi Tianzong.

Shi Tianzong was very calm on the surface, but he just lowered his head and didn't know what countermeasures he was thinking of.

"If your identity is revealed, retreat immediately." Shi Tianzong secretly decided in his heart.

There were only five thousand of them, so it was impossible for them to break open the city gate.

The best way is to retreat before the enemy discovers their identity, otherwise there is a risk of defeat.

Everyone was mentally prepared to wait for Li Guodong's arrival.

"Open the city gate." Yangjiang City spoke at this moment.

"General, aren't you waiting for General Li?" someone next to him asked.

He was just about to call someone, but now Yangjiang City was about to open the city gate, which puzzled him.

Yangjiangcheng explained with a smile, "When I mentioned Li Guodong just now, I have been observing their changes. If they show signs of retreat, there must be something wrong in their minds."

"Actually, they didn't."

It wasn't until here that Yangjiang City truly breathed a sigh of relief.

But he didn't know that because of his carelessness, he actually gave up the Jingzhao Mansion.

"Open the city gate!" The soldier received a signal from Yangjiang City and ordered the soldiers below to open the city gate.

"General Shi, the city gate is open..." Shi Zixiang said with joy in his heart as he looked at the slowly opening city gate.

Shi Tianzong did not answer, and had no intention of moving, but his attention was focused on Yangjiang City above the city.

"General Shi, do we want to go in?" Tuoba Lu asked in a low voice.

Although the city gate was open, Tuoba Lu did not dare to make the decision on his own whether to go in or not, so he had to ask Shi Tianzong what he wanted.

"Don't look back, keep a normal mind." Shi Tianzong reminded the other party vigilantly, telling him not to look back.

"Reply to the top and get permission to enter the city again."

When Tuoba Lu heard this, he frowned slightly.

I felt that Shi Tianzong's actions were unnecessary.

The capital of Yangjiang City had already ordered the city gates to be opened, so how could they not be allowed in?

Shi Tianzong did this just in case, and the most important thing was to let the enemy relax their vigilance.

If you see the city gate open and rush in impatiently, the enemy will be suspicious, and an accident will outweigh the gain and loss.

For this reason, although Tuoba Lu was unhappy, he could only obey Shi Tianzong's order at this moment. He raised his head and asked, "General Yang, can we enter the city now?"

"Huh!" Yangjiang City breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

Tuoba Lu was not in a hurry to enter the city, which proved that he and the army behind him had no problems, and he felt much more relaxed.

Then he looked at the guard beside him and said, "Let

"I obey my orders!"

Just as Shi Tianzong suspected, how could Yangjiang City allow Tuoba Lu's army to enter the city so easily? The moment he ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, he had already laid out an ambush.

If Tuoba Lu saw the city gates wide open and entered the city immediately, then he would definitely stop before Tuoba Lu entered the moat, and at the same time send people to bring Li Guodong over... But there is no need now, he can already confirm this army

Just one of our own people.

"General Tuoba Lu, please come in!" Yangjiang City's cheerful voice came from the city.

Tuoba Lu breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still a trace of impatience and helplessness in his eyes. After all, Jingzhao Mansion was the city they had fought so hard to capture, and now they had to give it up.

He suddenly wanted to scream and tell Yangjiang City their true identity, but if he did that, his elder brother would definitely die in the hands of the enemy, and he would not be able to escape.

Even though Tuoba Lu is free now, if he dares to act rashly, the muskets from behind will surely target him. As long as Shi Tianzong gives the order, he will be beaten into pieces by the enemy.

Which one is light and which one is heavy? Tuoba Lu made it clear.

Death in battle was not terrible, but in order to save his elder brother, he had no choice but to agree to Ling Yun's plan.

What's more, they only asked for the recovery of Jingzhao Mansion and all the lost land of Daqian, and then they would release him and his eldest brother... In order for his eldest brother to survive, he had to be obedient.

"Enter the city!"

Following Tuoba Lu's order, five thousand cavalry crossed the moat and entered Jingzhao Mansion.

After entering Jingzhao Mansion, Shi Tianzong did not rush to order an attack. Instead, he waited for the team to enter slowly. When everyone was about to enter the city, another group of troops appeared outside the city.

Yangjiang City became wary and quickly urged Tuoba Lu's people to enter the city quickly and wanted to close the city gate.

Tuoba Lu said, "General Yang, don't worry yet, this team is probably one of our own."

"One of our own?" Yangjiang City was stunned for a moment.

"How can it be?"

Yes, how could there be anyone else?

Yangjiang City looked at Tuoba Lu with a questioning look on his face. The latter had no choice but to explain that because of the defeat in the war, the army was dispersed, and he did not know exactly how many soldiers fled...

Yangjiang City's eyes were as bright as a torch, staring straight ahead.

Shi Tianzong at the city gate deliberately delayed time.

"General Tuoba Lu, the situation is not right, please close the door quickly..."

"Do it!"

Just as Yangjiang City was about to order the city gate to be closed, Shi Tianzong ordered the city gate to be seized before he could.

I saw Shi Tianzong giving an order, and the white-robed army who had been prepared began to kill the unsuspecting Xixia army around them.

"No, I've fallen into a trap!" Yangjiang City was stunned, and only then did he realize that he had fallen into a trap.
