Zuo Pi looked at Jun Ci at this moment, wishing he could eat his flesh and drink his blood.
He was like an extremely angry beast, driven to the edge of madness. If he hadn't been the commander-in-chief of an army, he would have lost all reason.
However, the temporary gaze of his best friend strangled his legs. He stared at Jun Ci for a long time, and then he ordered in a hoarse voice: "Close the city gate tightly, the highest defense!"
After saying that, he pushed away the guard who was supporting him and walked down the tower with heavy steps.
Jun Ci knew that they would not come out to challenge him again.
A person who can become the commander of an army is definitely not an impulsive and rebellious person.
She glanced at the corpse of the enemy's right general who fell beside her, and while he was still stiff, she placed it on his horse, including his sword.
After patting the horse gently, the horse neighed and rushed towards the city gate.
As soon as General Zuo Pi got off the tower, someone rushed down: "Report to Commander Left, the enemy's commander-in-chief, Commander Right... will lead the horses to the city gate. Do you want to open the city gate?"
"General, I'm afraid there's a fraud." Someone on the side warned worriedly.
Zuo Pi flashed the image of Jun Ci holding up his helmet in his mind: "Open the city gate and bring everyone back."
"General..."
Others tried to persuade him, but were shocked by General Zuo Pi's sharp gaze.
The city gate slowly opened, and the archers who had already regarded Jun Ci as Shura were waiting in full formation, watching Jun Ci's every move.
Not to mention Jun Ci, just Achi raising his hoof was enough to make him tense up.
Jun Ci watched them take the three corpses back without making any reaction.
"General, do we want to call a formation?" the county lieutenant stepped forward and asked cautiously.
Calling a formation is nothing more than stimulating, ridiculing, irritating the opponent, and making him come out of the city to fight.
Jun Ci glanced at him sideways and asked with great interest: "The commander-in-chief is particularly confident in the person behind you?"
"This..." The county lieutenant laughed dryly.
Although most of these people were his own men selected for convenience, some were reinforcements sent by other counties and cities.
He didn't dare to think about the scene of a pile of scattered sand and a real confrontation with the regular Southern Dynasty army.
But now that Jun Ci has killed three enemy officers, among them the most powerful general, everyone behind him is gearing up and eager to try.
"The humble position means that I have deep trust in the general." The county lieutenant said hurriedly.
Jun Ci smiled slightly: "Commander Lieutenant, please go down and set up camp."
"Ah?" The county captain hesitated, "General, we only brought enough dry food for one day."
Behind them was Nanjun City, so they naturally had no intention of bringing food and grass. Jun Ci didn't mention it, and they didn't ask.
"That's enough." Jun Ci said.
The county lieutenant, who was already fully aware of Jun Ci's military force, immediately went to organize the manpower himself, and they camped not far outside Zhijiang City.
This distance makes it impossible to even open the gate of Zhijiang City.
"Are they trying to defend us?" After the generals of the Southern Dynasties learned about this, they were confused about Jun Ci's approach.
"What's the point?" The gate here leads to Nanjun City, and the other gate leads to Yidu. Yidu is now in their possession. If they don't open this gate, they can still have food and grass.
, can’t trap them?
"General, there are only five thousand of them. Let's make a sneak attack at night..."
Everyone was talking, but General Zuo Pi didn't listen at all. He closed his eyes, and in his mind was the look of his best friend dying under Jun Ci's sword. It was like a curse, which became his inner demon and could not be shaken off.
It wasn't until two hours later that a letter was delivered to him.
Zuo Pi couldn't wait to open it. It contained information about Jun Ci, information they could find.
"It's actually a girl!" General Zuo Pi's eyes widened when he saw the words "daughter of the general of the Northern Dynasty".
The people below did not understand the meaning of this sentence for a while. General Zuo Pi continued to look down, his eyebrows broadening as he looked: "Order the army to prepare for a surprise attack at night!"
"Commander." The generals of the Southern Dynasty all trembled. They were very happy and were looking forward to being proud, but at the same time they were also a little confused.
It was clear that the general did not agree with their strategy of sneak attack at night, so why did he agree to it now?
Guessing their doubts, Zuo Pi handed the letter in his hand to the nearest person: "Jun Ci, the commander-in-chief of the Central Guard Army, the daughter of the general of the Northern Dynasty. Because of his meritorious service in rescuing the rebel army, he was appointed by the Emperor of the Northern Dynasties to take over the Central Guard Army.
military."
"She...she is actually a woman!" Everyone was stunned.
A woman, the commander of an army, killed one of their commanders.
"Commander, is this woman stationed outside the city deliberately luring us into a sneak attack?" A calm person raised his concerns.
General Zuo Pi nodded. After Jun Ci showed his absolute strength, he did not underestimate the enemy again because Jun Ci was a woman: "I also have this guess, but tonight is the best time."
Why tonight?
Anyone who read the letter will understand that Jun Ci's Central Guard Army is still on the way.
What she brought was just a ragtag group of people, and it was extremely easy to deal with them.
"Commander, I think this woman is very brave, so I will lead the troops in the raid tonight, and the commander will sit in the city." Someone immediately suggested.
He said it very cryptically. Jun Ci was very skilled in martial arts. If General Zuo Pi went there in person and Jun Ci took the opportunity to kill General Zuo Pi, then their army would fall into the dilemma of being without a leader, and they would be in disarray and unbearable.
hit.
General Zuo Pi was not angry, which is what he meant: "This is the most appropriate thing."
Xiao Yi left only 10,000 people in Zhijiang City, and the rest were in Yidu.
If it is Jun Ci's Central Guard Army who comes, seeing how Jun Ci knows how to march, we can guess that the Central Guard Army is not taking it easy, and they must treat it with caution.
But now a group of rabble came, so they sent 8,000 people out of the city to win with numbers.
No matter how powerful Jun Ci is, so what? With the extra three thousand people, a wheel battle can exhaust her strength!
outside the city.
The temporary camp had been set up, but Jun Ci was not in the camp, but standing on a high slope. The county lieutenant searched for her for a long time before he found her.
After going back and eating some simple dry food, Jun Ci still didn't rest, but she ordered no one to disturb her, so no one dared to come near.
At a quarter of an hour, a string of crickets chirped outside Jun Ci's tent.
Jun Ci immediately opened the tent, walked out and told the county lieutenant: "I'll take a rest while you send someone to patrol carefully."
"promise."
Soon the candles in Jun Ci's tent were extinguished.
It was half past the time of Xu, and Jun Ci, who should have been asleep by everyone, was no longer in the army.
The gate of the city quietly opened a crack, and a person lurked out from inside, silently leaving on both sides of the city wall, following the left and right, and using the cover of night, to surround him to the camp stationed outside the city.
Jun Ci, who was standing in the distance, had a panoramic view of this scene. Next to her was Lan An with dozens of archers.
These archers are the Central Guards who came in advance according to Jun Ci's instructions: "Just drag them to fight."
As for the people brought from Nanjuncheng, she doesn't care whether they live or die, most of them are attracted to Zhou Guang.
