Chapter two thousand and forty-five cheat into the city
Why should I get involved? Even if you are really going crazy, shouldn’t I be the one to report the news?
Diao Jun put on Modosuo's armor and covered his head with a helmet. Diao Jun lowered his head and felt confused.
Yang Ting was in front pretending to be Qie Liman, putting on his armor and carrying an axe. He couldn't see clearly in the night.
Cen Pei pretended to be an ordinary Miao County cavalry and followed Diao Jun.
The soldiers they brought out were all dressed up as Miao County cavalry, and at the same time they "held" the five hundred archers in front. Two of them put on the armor of Yang Ting and Chen Sheng, pretending to be captured Qi State generals.
Chen Sheng was responsible for leading a small number of troops and escorting the surrendered cavalry to the military camp.
He was not worried about the rebellion of these Miao County cavalry, because Miao County's regulations stipulated that when the general dies, all the soldiers who were not well protected will be buried with him.
Therefore, the Miao army must either live and die with its general on the battlefield, or surrender decisively to the enemy and never return.
Since these more than 600 Miao County cavalry did not choose to live and die with their generals, they had no choice but to join the Qi Kingdom and become their soldiers.
"Calm down, don't be nervous!" Cen Pei rode up to Diao Jun and reminded him softly.
"This strategy is too risky!" Diao Jun whispered, "If you are not careful, the whole army may be wiped out, and we will all die!"
"How can a man be so timid?" Cen Pei frowned, "Besides, you still have a magic weapon with you! If there is any situation, you will need to take action!"
"I don't want to die here..." Diao Jun said tremblingly, "I want to go back to Qimu Town..."
"Don't worry!" Cen Pei reached out and patted his shoulder gently, "As long as I'm still alive, I will never put you in any danger, trust me!"
"Hush~ We're here!" Yang Ting turned around to remind, and then called a surrendered Miao County cavalry to come forward and call the door.
Everyone fell silent, all bowed their heads and pretended to be exhausted after the battle, trying not to let the defenders above the city gate see clearly.
The Miao County cavalry had no choice. They rode their horses to the city gate, raised their heads and shouted loudly: "Qie Liman, General Moduosuo has returned victorious! Capture the enemy generals Yang Ting and Chen Sheng alive, open the door quickly!"
The soldiers of the Gao Kingdom on the city wall immediately raised their torches to illuminate the city and looked below.
The torches were not bright enough to see clearly at night, so we could only use the moonlight to confirm that it was indeed the Miao Commandery cavalry who was shouting, followed by Miao Commandery troops. The troops were led by the Miao Commandery General Armor, and those taken as prisoners were all Qi Guo.
Troops and generals.
Combined with the scene just now of the ambush outside the city led by Cheliman and Modosuo, as well as the situation where the local harassment team was routed, it was obvious that our side had won a great victory.
The defenders on the city didn't think much and immediately lowered the city gate.
Isn't it? Can this really deceive the city gate into opening? Diao Jun couldn't believe it.
"Don't panic!" Cen Pei reminded softly from behind, "I will remind you what to do after entering the city!"
"Gulu~" Diao Jun swallowed, feeling dizzy.
The city gate was completely lowered, Yang Ting gave a slight signal, and the team quickly entered the city.
When they arrived at the city, the captain of the city gate garrison led his troops to greet him. Before he could speak, Yang Ting suddenly rode forward and struck him with an axe, killing him on the spot.
This unexpected situation caused the city gate defenders to panic.
"Kill!!" Cen Pei gave the order, urging Diao Jun to rush in and kill him.
The cavalry and the archers who pretended to be prisoners joined forces and quickly captured the city gate.
"Lieutenant Yang, could you please lead the troops to guard the city gate to welcome the army!" Cen Pei raised his bright silver gun, "Vice General Diao and I led the cavalry to the prefect's mansion to capture Sha Yihe, the prefect of Bashui! Even if we can't catch it, we still have to use it.
The magic weapon will take his life. If you are lucky, Zhuo Yan and Morico will also take it!"
Diao Jun looked bitter next to him and thought to himself: Where do you get such confidence?
Yang Ting nodded and said: "I will leave these 500 archers to guard here. If nothing can be done, you two will retreat immediately and escape from the city with me!"
"Understood!" Cen Pei clamped his legs on the horse's belly and ran forward, "Follow me!"
What else could he do? Diao Jun had no choice but to catch up on horseback and follow closely beside Cen Pei.
"Boom~" Thousands of cavalry accompanied them with a fierce momentum.
The Prefect's Mansion is the most iconic and easiest-to-find building in the county.
The cavalry ran wildly, getting closer and closer.
"Stop!!" At this moment, a patrol suddenly appeared in front of them. They found Miao cavalry running wildly on the street and immediately stopped them.
"Qie Liman, General Modosuo has returned with a great victory! He wants to report the results of the battle to General Morico, so don't stop him!" Cen Pei was brave enough and shouted forward on horseback.
Upon hearing this, the patrol troops subconsciously moved to both sides. After all, the opponent was indeed wearing Miao County's cavalry armor.
"Let's go!" Cen Pei pulled the reins and ran forward.
Diao Jun gritted his teeth, rode his horse, and led his cavalry to follow.
Passing by the patrol team, Cen Pei suddenly stabbed the leader of the patrol team with a gun, instantly poking a bloody hole in his throat, and loudly ordered: "Kill!!"
"Kill!!" The cavalrymen pulled out their butcher knives one after another and charged forward, causing the patrols to disperse and kill them all before they could react.
Diao Jun followed Cen Pei closely, feeling panicked by his aggressive and decisive character, but at the same time he felt inexplicably at ease.
After killing all the patrols, the cavalry, led by Cen Pei, rushed to the prefect's mansion without stopping.
The sudden arrival of the cavalry team made the defenders in the mansion nervous and arranged their formations early.
The prefect Sha Yihe was also awakened by the commotion outside. He personally stood in front of the government office and led the garrison to prepare.
"Capture Sha Yihe alive!!" After Cen Pei arrived this time, he directly ordered a charge. The cavalry rushed over and fought with the defenders.
The guards of the Prefecture are all elite soldiers, not to mention they are already prepared when they hear the sound?
Furthermore, the opponent had four to five thousand, and by comparison, one thousand cavalry had no advantage.
The most troublesome thing is that the leading formation of the guard troops is all spearmen, and the spear formation is specially designed to restrain the cavalry charge.
After several hard charges, he failed to get through, and many cavalry were lost. Cen Pei was a little anxious, and he also knew that it would be impossible to catch Sha Yihe alive if the opponent reacted unprepared.
I heard the commotion in the surrounding military camps. I am afraid that Yuanzhou reinforcements and Miaojun reinforcements will arrive quickly. We must fight quickly!
If you can't capture Sha Yihe alive, you have to at least take his life!
Thinking of this, Cen Pei shouted to Diao Jun loudly: "Do it! Use your magic weapon to shoot Sha Yihe, the prefect of Bashui!"
Diao Jun was nervous along the way. When he heard the order, he subconsciously threw the mace.
The wolf-tooth awl came out of his hand and turned into a flash of silver light, instantly penetrating the heart of Sha Yihe, the prefect of Bashui who was commanding the battle behind the enemy's rear.
"Poof!" Sha Yihe spat out blood in horror, looked down at the blood hole in his chest, and fell down as the deputy general beside him shouted in panic.
"Retreat!" Seeing that he had successfully killed Sha Yihe, the prefect of Bashui, Cen Pei's eyes were filled with joy, and he quickly turned his horse's head and gave the order loudly.
Diao Jun caught the mace, quickly followed him on horseback, and led the cavalry back the same way.
Only halfway there, they found that the road ahead was blocked, densely packed Miao County cavalry were waiting, and Morico took the lead.
There was also a commotion in the rear, and Zhuo Yan led the army to rush forward.
