Chapter 295: Capture the thief first and capture the king first
Author: Jinhuang
After giving the instructions, Jun Ci quickly disappeared into the night.
After all the troops of the Southern Dynasty sneaked out of the city, it didn't take long for Jun Ci to sneak into the city.
She came fiercely today, killing one Southern Dynasty general and two officers in one fell swoop. For someone like her, the Southern Dynasty generals who didn't know much about her would definitely find a way to find out.
It was easy to know that what she brought was not her own troops, but scattered soldiers gathered from all sides in Nanjun City.
It is difficult for such people to be of one mind and to give unified command.
Tonight is the best opportunity to sneak attack on her. No one is sure whether the Chinese escort will arrive tomorrow.
More importantly, taking revenge tonight can be the most effective way to boost the morale that was broken by Jun Ci.
But due to her own ability, the other party would definitely worry that she was staying here in such a arrogant manner, deliberately leading them to a sneak attack, and thereby setting up an ambush.
For fear of leading to a leaderless situation, General Zuo Pi could not take risks under any circumstances.
All this is as Jun Ci expected.
But they still underestimated Jun Ci's ability. Even if the city gate was heavily guarded, Jun Ci could easily sneak into the city.
A large number of soldiers and horses left the city, and the people brought from Nanjun City, with the secret help of a small group of people from Lan'an, were enough to contain them.
She wants to kill all the guards in the city alone!
Start with the general.
Tonight, as we were waiting for the outcome of the war outside, all the generals from General Zuo Pi to the remaining commanders, except those who needed to patrol and close the city gates, were in the county government office occupied by General Zuo Pi.
Although Zhijiang City is a large city, it only has the county magistrate and county captain, and it belongs to Nancheng County.
There are many soldiers outside the county government office, and the patrols are replaced very intensively, making it difficult to take advantage of the loopholes.
This is not a problem for Jun Ci. After all, no matter how strict it is, can it be compared to the Zhou clan?
Jun Ci climbed in easily, but these people were gathered in the lobby, waiting for the battle to unfold.
These people are not ordinary people, and their martial arts skills are high or low. They rush in rashly, fearing that they will join forces to hold them back and allow General Zuo Pi to evacuate.
As long as General Zuo Pi is alive, this army will still be able to fight.
Jun Ci decided to hide in the dark - wait!
"Report - report to the commander, the raid at the front has been successful, our army killed the opponent by surprise!"
"Okay, hahahahaha, that's good news."
"The little girl from the Jun family is just naive. She thinks that by scaring us during the day, she will be able to sit back and relax at night, but she is completely undefended!"
"This marching and fighting is not a little girl's trick. A little girl should get married and have children, follow the three obediences and four virtues, and stabilize the inner house!"
"That's very true. Today I have to show her some grace and avenge our right commander!"
Jun Ci was outside listening to their excited, angry or disparaging voices. She seemed oblivious and continued to wait for the opportunity with an expressionless face.
About half an hour later, someone else came to report.
"Report - report to the commander, the enemy has archers ambushing in the dark, and our attack is blocked!"
"What? Archers? Where did they get the archers?"
"It's really a scam!"
"Cunning little girl!"
"How many archers are there?" General Zuo Pi asked.
"Reporting to the commander, there is news from the front. It is estimated that there are no more than fifty archers."
General Zuo Pi breathed a sigh of relief: "We will investigate again and report again."
"General, do you want reinforcements of archers?" Someone asked for instructions.
General Zuo Pi thought for a while and objected: "Since the young lady of the Jun family can hide the archers, there is no other way. It is important to defend the city. If more archers are sent, the city gate will be in danger."
Another thing is that this time Jun Ci came well prepared. Her archers had already ambushed the best position. They sent archers, but they might have died at the hands of Jun Ci's archers before they reached the battlefield.
It was pitch dark outside, and as long as they could break in, the two armies would be in chaos, and the archers would be useless.
You can't just shoot indiscriminately without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy?
However, General Zuo Pi never expected that they would shoot indiscriminately without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy.
Lan An's judgment was very strong. Although the distance was a little blurry, eight out of ten arrows were able to hit the enemy. The remaining two arrows were uncertain and could only be deliberately missed.
But there is an advantage to this shot, that is, people on their side naturally believe that arrows will not be shot at them, and few people can dodge. In this way, it can distract the attention of the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty, and the two armies are fighting.
If we are all equally powerful, our opponent's ability to avoid being distracted would be enough to kill him.
It was precisely because of this that 8,000 men attacked the unsuspecting 5,000 men without gaining any advantage.
Of course, this is the result of Lan An's deliberate control in accordance with Jun Ci's instructions. The enemy cannot suffer too heavy losses, otherwise they will inevitably withdraw their troops, which will affect Jun Ci's assassination plan.
An hour passed, and the news was neither good nor bad.
People who were waiting calmly and calmly became anxious.
Just at this time, someone stood up to go out to pay respects. Jun Ci raised his eyebrows and followed him quietly.
Although people in the military hold important positions, they are not like court politicians who have to be followed by three or five people when going to the toilet.
Junci took it easy and captured the person when he was not prepared.
The battle report coming from the front already showed that the outcome of the battle between the two sides was inextricable.
People who cared about the war completely ignored that there was a person who had not returned for a quarter of an hour. Only people he was close to noticed, but they had no suspicion and just went to look for him on their own.
In this way, Jun Ci easily killed two people.
Two people, one disappeared for a quarter of an hour and the other disappeared for a quarter and a half, immediately attracted attention.
"Did these two people fall into a trap?" Some people were still in a mood to tease before they realized something was wrong.
Zuo Pi frowned deeply. He vaguely felt that something was unusual, but he was confident that his government office was safe: "You two go and take a look."
There were only seven people in total, and Jun Ci had already killed two of them, leaving only four people except General Zuo Pi.
"The commander is suspicious that something unexpected happened to the two of them...?" The voice behind was extremely low, mixed with extreme disbelief.
"Be careful." Zuo Pi ordered with a solemn expression.
The two men's hearts were also raised, and they walked heavily, even recruiting four soldiers to follow them.
However, it didn't help. It was just that there were more people, and Jun Ci inevitably made some noise.
Those who noticed it in the main hall immediately shouted: "Come here, protect the commander!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, a figure rushed towards him as fast as lightning. Two of them did not pull out the swords in their hands. The sword light flashed across their faces, blood splattered, and they fell down while maintaining the action of drawing their swords.
Go down.
The powerful punch hit his face, and Zuo Pijiang, who had been prepared for it, immediately raised his arms to block it, but his whole body was still knocked to the ground by gravity.
There was no one in the main hall, and General Zuo Pi's weapon was a trident, which was not at hand.
He had already seen Jun Ci's face clearly, because Jun Ci didn't cover it up at all.
Someone outside had already begun to rush in to rescue. Jun Ci did not waste any time. She used her fastest speed to capture General Zuo Pi before the soldiers rushed over to get in his way. It was too late to kill him, but he was locked in front of her: "
