Chapter 92: Entering the City

In the end, there were not many people who chose to leave, only more than twenty people. These people left secretly after returning to the camp.

In this regard, the leaders of all sizes and big schools in the camp turned a blind eye and ignored it. After all, everyone is unable to protect themselves now.

In fact, the most stressed one is not the ordinary soldiers below, but the big and small leaders who commanded the thousands of infantrymen. With Cao Yu's personality, if they want to punish them, they will be punished by those in charge, and they will rarely involve ordinary soldiers.

In the camp's big tent, all the leaders who chose to stay gathered together to discuss how to save themselves.

"Or...we don't send this news back first?"

"No, that cavalry is heading straight to Yecheng. It will be a matter of time before we hide it. If we are not allowed to report it, we will know that it will be a more sinful crime and will harm our family!"

"In fact, we can put most of the responsibility on Ma Cheng. After all, their cavalry did not stop the cavalry. We infantry can't let us chasing people with two legs, there is no reason."

"This method is good, just follow this method. Without further ado, we will send someone to send a letter back now. We cannot let the plate think that we delay the military information."

After the messenger was sent out, a team of about 100 horsemen came here that afternoon.

Seeing the man with bright purple beard in front of the horse team, the big and small leaders in the camp quickly met up and knelt on the ground and shouted: "Greetings to the plate!"

They never dreamed that the palm plate, who was commanding the siege in Yecheng, would come in person. Everyone put their heads on the ground at this time, and they did not dare to breathe.

"This morning, a cavalry with less than two hundred men not only broke through your blockade, but also destroyed a team of 500 men in Macheng?"

Cao Yu looked at the big and small leader below coldly, and his voice rose in vain, "There are 3,500 people, but they can't do anything to a cavalry with less than 200 people. Tell me, what's the point of keeping you?"

"We have no choice but to forgive the punishment when we take the plate. Even Ma Cheng's horse team was wiped out. We are all infantrymen, and we can't catch up with others with both legs."

"Yes, yes, this cavalry is too fast, and it's a plain here, so we have no other way!"

"Is there no way, or do you not take it seriously at all? What have you done after 3,000 people staying here for so many days? This is the plain, but as long as you set up traps such as tripping ropes and horse pits around in advance, how can you easily break through the past if you have made more than 150 riders?"

Cao Yu looked at the people kneeling on the ground coldly, and glanced at him. All the leaders felt as if a knife was wandering on him, and cold sweat suddenly burst out.

"Come!"

"exist!"

"Pull these useless guys out of the gate and cut them down!"

Cao Yu's words immediately made the leaders feel like they fell into an ice cellar and began to kowtow and beg for mercy, but they were useless at all. Soon more than ten heads were hung at the gate.

After dealing with those leaders, Cao Yu promoted a man in the horse team to the leader who commanded thousands of people here, allowing him to stop the upcoming Liu thief army here, and then took the horse team back to Yecheng.

On the way, Cao Fei couldn't help asking: "Dad, are you sure that it was a cavalry sent by Liu Zhe, but what is his purpose in sending this number of troops?"

There were only one hundred and fifty people, even if they rushed into Yecheng, it seemed that they would not have any effect.

"It's impossible to be a member of the court. What's the purpose? This is also something I can't understand, but if something goes wrong, there will be a demon. Liu Zhe must be planning something and can't wait any longer. After we go back, we will immediately launch a large army and attack the city overnight! We must take down Yecheng tonight!"

Cao Yu made a quick decision.

······

At night, the moon is bright in the sky, because today is fifteen, the moonlight is particularly bright.

In a woods ten miles away from Yecheng, Liu Feng was thinking about how to escape the hundreds of thousands of Minshan bandits outside Yecheng when they entered the city, the system suddenly popped up the countdown to defend Yecheng.

"What's going on? Why is there only one hour left!"

Seeing the bright red data on the countdown, Liu Feng was immediately uneasy. He had more than ten hours before, but why did he have only one hour left at once? What went wrong?

"Lord, look over there!"

Xu Tu pointed to Yecheng and saw a large number of fires suddenly popping out there, illuminating half of the night sky red.

"The Minshan bandits must be attacking the city overnight."

Seeing the time decreasing minute by minute, Liu Feng knew that he could not wait any longer, "Let's go, let's go to the river!"

He plans to enter the city by the water gate to the west of Yecheng.

More than 150 riders passed through a bridge under the moonlight and quietly arrived on the other side of the river at the west gate of Yecheng. They could clearly hear the terrifying shouts of killing on the other side through the river a hundred meters wide.

Liu Feng looked at the time and there was only half an hour left before the city was broken.

Although the river surface was smooth and there was no wind or waves at this time, the river water was biting cold because there were no boats or rafts along the way. Now if you want to cross the river, you can only swim.

"Xu Tu and you guys come with me, Chu Liu and you and the rest stay to guard the horses."

Liu Feng said as he jumped off the horse, took off the bright light armor on his body, and carried the people who wanted to cross the river to do several rounds of warm-up exercises, then jumped into the river and swam towards the opposite bank of Yecheng.

The cold and bone-banged river water made Liu Feng’s body full of goose bumps. Fortunately, he has been standing in a stance these days and his physical fitness has improved a lot. Otherwise, he might not be able to withstand the cold river water.

On the top of the city, although the main walls that were defended were the North City Gate and the East City Gate, some mandates were still placed on the top of the city west and south of the city to prevent the Minshan bandits from attacking through this side.

Because of the moonlight, several black armored soldiers guarding the city head in the west of the city immediately discovered the people who crossed the river below.

"Who! Stop quickly, or we will shoot arrows!"

"Bold, this is the lord, don't do anything randomly!"

Xu Tu shouted loudly.

"What certificate is there!"

Although the Black Armored Thieves Army was recruited by Liu Feng through the system, there was no spiritual connection between them. Even if there were fire and moonlight, the two sides were too far apart, and the shadow of the city wall covered the bottom. Apart from the outline, it was impossible to see the faces of the people in the river clearly.

If it were someone else, they might be stumped, but for Liu Feng, it would be too simple to prove his identity.

He shouted to the above: "You let me approach alone, and I will recruit some soldiers through the sluice."
