Watching Yue and others leaving, a patrol captain whispered: "Do you think they can really defeat the captain?"
"I hope." Another captain sighed softly: "I have sent people to Liecheng to investigate. If the situation is really as Yue said, and Liecheng's water source was saved by the gods, then I will also
I will lead a team to help him."
Having said this, he laughed at himself: "In the end, we cowards dare not do anything, and we have to ask the enemy to help us solve the tribal problems."
"What a meaningless war..."
While these captains were talking, an inconspicuous soldier sneaked out of the camp while no one was paying attention.
He took out a cute gerbil from his arms, touched its hair and fed it a few grains.
After the gerbil finished eating, the soldier stuffed a piece of paper wrapped in film into its mouth and placed it on the ground.
"Be good, go ahead."
As soon as the gerbil touched the desert, it immediately dug holes at an alarming speed, quickly got into the sand, and then ran towards Gucheng at an extremely fast speed.
After doing this, the soldier returned to the camp, blended into the team as if nothing had happened, and talked and laughed with his companions.
No one noticed the whole process.
At the same time, the Liecheng team was also rushing at an extremely fast speed. The entire team abandoned a large number of heavy items and carried nothing else except the necessary supplies.
"Is it necessary to be in such a hurry?" A patrol captain in Liecheng asked: "Even if we don't rush so fast, we can reach Gucheng tomorrow."
Before Yue could speak, Ao, who had once served under Tai, replied: "You don't know, Tai is a very suspicious person. He has placed his eyes and ears in many places, not only openly, but also secretly. Some
Only he himself knows the eyes and ears, and maybe there are even some in our team."
"In order to prevent Tai from receiving the news in advance, we must hurry up and catch him off guard before he knows the news!"
The Liecheng patrol captain nodded thoughtfully and did not ask any more questions.
Under the rapid march of everyone, they arrived near Gucheng that night.
The moon did not appear in the desert tonight, and the night was dark and windy. From a distance, it looked almost pitch black, which brought great convenience to everyone.
When they were still three miles away from Lie City, Captain Bailie ordered all soldiers to stop traveling and rest in place for half an hour.
Ao opened his mouth, but in the end he did not express any objection.
While the team was resting, Yue volunteered to go to Gucheng for reconnaissance.
Captain Bailie agreed. Not only that, he also sent Captain Sloan and Yue of Liecheng Scout Team to go with him.
Yue smiled bitterly in his heart, Bailie still couldn't worry about them.
However, this is human nature. In Bailie's position, everything he does must be considered for the entire patrol. Otherwise, a wrong decision or an oversight may lead to the sacrifice of many soldiers.
In contrast, their captain Tai...
With a sigh, the two took advantage of the night and headed to Gucheng in the dark.
Half an hour later, the team was repaired and Yue and Sloan also returned from reconnaissance.
The reconnaissance process went very smoothly, and Gucheng was peaceful, no different from before.
"It seems that Tai's side has not received the news yet." Ao said in a deep voice: "My suggestion is to enter the city now, let us deal with the guards, and capture them quickly before Tai and the others have time to react!"
Captain Bai Lie pondered for a while, nodded and said: "Okay! Then attack now!"
Under the order of Captain Bailie, all the teams gathered together and silently attacked Gucheng!
When the army arrived at the gate of Gucheng, the guards at the city gate discovered this large group of people and were immediately shocked.
"Enemy attack!!!"
"Sentinels! Where are the sentries?! What do they do for food! Why didn't anyone warn me?!"
"Captain! The sentries are gone!"
It turned out that the sentries near the city gate had been sneaked in first and knocked unconscious by Ao and others who were familiar with the environment of Gucheng.
Without sentries, in this dark environment, the guards of Gucheng were like a blind man, unable to see everything outside the city. They didn't realize it until the troops came to the city.
Unfortunately, it was too late when they discovered it. Before they could activate the city's defense facilities, a large number of soldiers poured into the city.
Due to the huge numerical gap, these guards were powerless to resist, and were retreating steadily under Liecheng's offensive.
The captain of the patrol guarding the city gate looked at the familiar figures in front of the army with disbelief in his eyes.
"Ao! Jiao! And Yue! What are you people doing?!"
"Asshole! You actually led the enemy into the city, you bunch of traitors!"
"I don't have time to explain too much to you now. You just need to know that we are not betraying the tribe, but are saving the tribe." Ao turned to face the guards and shouted: "Brothers! Put down your weapons! The war is over!"
"These brothers from Liecheng are not here to attack us, they are here to help us. As long as you don't do anything, they won't hurt you!"
Ao was originally responsible for guarding the city gate, and many of the guard soldiers knew him. His prestige among the soldiers was not low.
Under Ao's persuasion, some soldiers hesitated for a while and chose to put down their weapons. As a result, they found that the people on the opposite side did as Ao said and did not continue to attack them.
Seeing this scene, all the guards gradually put down their weapons and gave up resistance.
In less than half an hour, the patrol guard team in Gucheng was captured.
Things went so smoothly, and Yue and others breathed a sigh of relief.
If possible, they certainly hope to avoid unnecessary casualties. After all, these people are their own people, they were just temporarily deceived by Tai and followed his orders.
This is also the reason why some patrol captains agreed to follow Yue. With them here, they can at least persuade some people to return from their lost ways.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He did not stay too long, and after leaving some people to look after the guard soldiers, Bailie led the team to move forward.
Under the leadership of Yue, a group of people rushed straight to Tai's residence.
The journey went very smoothly, which made Yue feel a little uneasy.
There were no traps, no patrols, not to mention people, not a single dog was seen, and even the surrounding houses were very quiet...
Yeah, where are those people in the house?!
Yue finally understood what was wrong. From the time they entered the city until now, they had caused so much noise, but not a single resident had seen it.
Even if they didn't dare to come out, they wouldn't even be able to see their shadows. The windows of all the houses were dark and looked like a haunted house.
There was no light on the entire road and it was pitch black.
Just when Yue was about to step forward to report the situation to Bailie, a light suddenly brightened in front of the team!
"Click!" "Click!" "Click!"
Searchlights appeared above each roof, shining on the Liecheng team, rendering the entire area as if it were daytime.
Some soldiers were caught off guard and had their eyes illuminated by a powerful light source, causing intermittent blindness and causing a commotion.
"Ah! My eyes!"
"I can't see it either!"
"Calm down! Don't mess up your position, or you may be ambushed by the enemy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the flaming arrows filled the sky with the sound of breaking through the air, and shot towards the densest place of the team!
"咻咻咻——"
Just when these flaming arrows were about to hit the ground, Bai Lie suddenly jumped up and appeared in mid-air. He quickly waved the sword in his hand, and the cold wind of the knife surged out, sweeping the flaming arrows to pieces.
The sword wind blocked most of the flaming arrows, and the rest were blocked by other patrol captains. Only a few passed through their blockade and landed among the crowd.
"boom!"
The flaming arrows exploded and threw away the surrounding warriors. Fortunately, the damage was not significant and no one died.
But then, the second wave of fire arrows came again!
When the captains were tired of dealing with the rain of arrows, at the rear of the team, Hanu held a spear, took a running start, and threw it fiercely!
The spear shot out of the air and hit a light on the roof next to it.
With a "pop" sound, the lighting lamp shattered and the light disappeared.
Seeing Hanu's actions, the people around him immediately reacted and imitated him. Spears or crossbow arrows were shot out one after another, destroying most of the lights on the roof.
The people next to the lights also reacted and started to block these arrows and spears, but it was too late. The light projected by the remaining lights was already at a relatively normal brightness, posing no threat to the Liecheng team.
.
After adapting to the light, everyone finally saw the situation in front of them clearly.
In front of them, a group of Gucheng warriors stood on the roof, holding fierce crossbows and pointing them at them.
Among these people, Tai was wearing a long robe and looking at them gloomily.
Bailie jumped to the roof and looked at Taiping across several streets: "Captain Tai, long time no see."
"It's been a long time." Tai raised his head and said calmly: "I originally thought that the last meeting between the two of us would be in Liecheng."
"Sorry to disappoint you." Bai Lie sneered, "But it's the same as meeting in Gucheng."
Tai did not respond. He lowered his head and looked at the front of Liecheng's team and said slowly: "Yue, why did you betray me?"
Yue raised his head and looked at Tai: "Because you betrayed us!"
"I betrayed you? Why did you say this?"
"For your own selfish reasons, you gave up the opportunity to restore the water source, disregarded the life and death of the entire clan in the city, and also assassinated the brothers who were loyal to you. Isn't this considered betrayal?!"
"I see, it's because of history." Tai sighed: "You misunderstood, I didn't harm history, it was just an accident."
"Even now, you are still making excuses!" Yue said angrily: "Then what happened to the history family?! Do you dare to say that the death of their family has nothing to do with you?!"
"This matter was my negligence. By the time I knew it, it was already too late. It's understandable if you want to blame me. I'm sorry for history." Tai said helplessly.
Seeing that Tai still looked coy, Yue was filled with anger: "Fart, I have already investigated clearly that the death of the historical family members is related to you!"
"The order that even killed Khan Ya was given by you yourself!"
Tai's brows furrowed: "What evidence do you have?"
"Of course I have the evidence." Yue sneered: "The eagle captain who accepted your order is the best evidence!"
As soon as Yue finished speaking, two people walked out behind him carrying a man with a bruised nose and face.
This person is none other than Captain Eagle.
I don’t know what kind of torture Captain Jiu suffered. His face was bruised and his eyes were full of panic.
Under Yue's questioning, he quickly revealed everything that Tai had ordered and done, which aroused the anger of all the Gucheng soldiers.
To everyone's surprise, Tai did not become angry, but said expressionlessly: "A prisoner captured by you, of course, he can say whatever you want him to say, can this be regarded as evidence?"
"Shameless!"
"Thankfully he can tell lies with his eyes open!"
Now even the people in Liecheng couldn't stand it any longer and scolded them one after another.
Tai ignored it and turned to look at Ao and other patrol captains: "Ao, Jiao, do you think so too?"
Under Tai's gaze, Ao and the others lowered their heads subconsciously, not daring to look at him, but soon they raised their heads firmly and solemnly said: "Captain, please step down!"
"Let me step down? Hahaha!" Tai laughed loudly as if he heard something funny: "Can Gucheng survive to this day without me? Now you are asking me to step down?"
After he finished laughing, Tai's face turned cold.
"Since you are stubborn and betrayed the tribe first, then I have nothing to hesitate about."
"Someone, bring them up!"
"yes!"
Soon, several Gucheng soldiers escorted the group of people out from behind the house.
Looking at the people being escorted, the expressions of Yue and several other patrol captains changed drastically.
Among these people, there were old people, children, women, and even a pregnant woman with a big belly!
"Dad! Aniang!"
"Liu'er!"
"son!"
This group of people is the family members of these patrol captains!
Yue's parents and wife were also there. Looking at his family, Yue roared: "Tai! You beast! If something happens to us, don't do anything to them!"
"In fact, I have received the news of your betrayal a long time ago." Tai said slowly: "It's just that I didn't expect that you would come so quickly, which would make many of my plans useless."
"Now, I will give you another chance to choose and return to my command. I can forget about the past."
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
Ao angrily scolded: "You bastard! They say it won't harm your family! You threaten our relatives, do you have any humanity at all!"
"There is no need to talk about morality when dealing with betrayers." Tai Leng said: "The betrayer's family members are also traitors. According to the clan rules, anyone who betrays the tribe must die!"
"I'll give you one minute to think about it. Once the time is up, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Looking at Lie Cheng and the others who were jumping around, Tai said calmly: "Don't expect to come up to snatch people. As long as someone dares to take a step forward, I will kill someone. You can try it and see whether it is your movements that are faster or our swords."
