Hu Yanjie's face turned pale. Only now did he understand why Zhou Fei was nervous? It turned out that he was being followed.
Zhou Fei did not expect that Wang Changshi would come to the door in person and that no troops would come to surround him. He pondered for a while and said: "Put on your armor and stay alert!"
Zhou Fei walked quickly to the front door. He opened the door and saw a middle-aged man standing outside. He had an elegant appearance and a smile on his face. When he saw the vigilance in Zhou Fei's eyes, he clasped his fists and said, "I'm here.
Wang Jinhua, governor of this province, can I come in and talk?"
Seeing that there were no troops around, Zhou Fei nodded and stepped aside. Wang Jinhua walked into the yard, and Zhou Fei immediately closed the door.
"How should I call you?" Wang Jinhua asked with a smile.
"My surname is Zhou, and I come from Chang'an."
"Then I will call you General Zhou. There is no fallacy in this title!"
Zhou Fei smiled and said, "It's just a title. Chang Shi, feel free to use it as you like."
Seeing the other party's acquiescence, Wang Jinhua smiled and said: "I hope General Zhou understands that the Wang family has been in Mizhou for hundreds of years and has never cooperated with the rebels. It has not happened before and it will never happen in the future."
Zhou Fei waved his hand, "Wang Changshi, please come in!"
Wang Jinhua followed Zhou Fei to the lobby and sat down. Zhou Fei said: "Now that Wang Changshi knows, I will also open the window and speak openly. His Highness the King of Jin has issued an order asking us to seize Mizhou. It may be just recently. I am following the order of General Li."
I came to Mizhou to fight as an outpost and understand the situation. First of all, I am very grateful to Wang Changshi for the soldiers and armor he provided."
"We, the Wang family, also want to do something for His Highness the King of Jin. We all know that as long as we are controlled by Zhu Si, we will face disaster sooner or later, just like Yangzhou, so driving away Zhu Si's army is what we most desire.
Please tell General Zhou to tell General Li that we are willing to serve the Jin army."
Zhou Fei smiled and nodded, "I will definitely tell General Li truthfully to express the Wang family's wishes. However, I suggest that Wang Changshi can visit Qizhou directly. This will appear more sincere? Especially our Military Advisor Wang is also looking forward to working with you secretly."
The cooperation of the Zhou Family.”
Wang Jinhua pondered for a moment and asked, "Is military advisor Wang responsible for government affairs?"
"Can you say that? Military Advisor Wang and General Li are good partners. General Li concentrates on military affairs, while Military Advisor Wang is responsible for logistics and government affairs, especially for follow-up appeasement."
"Thank you, General Zhou, for telling me!"
Wang Jinhua really expressed his sincere gratitude? Zhao Ban, the governor of Mizhou, was an official appointed by Li Na. His political performance was mediocre and he had no backing. After Zhu Si's army entered Mizhou, he immediately embraced Zhu Si's lap? He actively and diligently
Recruiting civilians to dry salt? They also tried their best to provide animal-drawn carts and forced all the folk's animal-drawn carts away. Once the Jin army captured Mizhou, such people would definitely not be able to stay.
Of course Wang Jinhua was aiming for the position of governor, so he was particularly active. First, he wanted to help the Jin army militarily, and secondly, he wanted to go to Licheng County to have a good talk with Wang's military advisor.
Wang Jinhua pondered for a moment and said, "I have another important news to tell General Zhou? It's about Yanzhou and Yizhou."
Zhou Fei perked up and said quickly: "Wang Changshi, please speak!"
"Did I accidentally leak it from the governor? Zhu Si had a strict order to keep the secret state secret? Once the Jin army attacks Mizhou, the Yanzhou and Yizhou troops must come to help? It would be better to give up Yanzhou and Yizhou temporarily.
We must protect Michigan."
Zhou Fei continued to ask: "Then how did the Yanzhou and Yizhou armies know that the Jin army was attacking Mizhou?"
"There is an eagle tower in the military camp, which should be connected to the two states through the eagle letter."
Zhou Fei nodded, "This information is very important, thank you very much!"
Wang Jinhua was anxious to return to his family to discuss going to Qizhou, so he stood up and left.
After Zhou Fei sent him away, he found nothing unusual and ordered the soldiers to lift the alert. However, Zhou Fei did not send a message to Licheng County. Judging from the time, Li Bing's army should be on the way.
.........
Time flies to the next night. According to the time agreed by both parties, the army will attack the military camp at the third watch, but Zhou Fei needs to capture the city gate half an hour in advance. If Zhou Fei captures the north gate, he can send a signal. If
If it cannot be taken, the army will directly attack the military camp.
This is also to prevent the army from being discovered by enemy scouts and the enemy troops withdrawing into the city in advance. This is a precautionary measure. It may seem a bit redundant, but experienced Li Bing and Zhou Fei both know that many battles fail in the details.
The patch Zhou Fei applied is absolutely important and not redundant.
In the evening, Hu Yanjie rushed to Zhou Fei's residence. He knocked on the door, but without entering, he directly handed a heavy box to Zhou Fei, "Wang Changshi asked me to give this to Mr. Zhou, and he asked me to tell him.
You, tonight’s password is to spend a good time and have a full moon.”
"I understand, what's in this box?" Zhou Fei felt that the box was heavy.
"I don't know either, I'm just talking about things that Mr. Zhou will use."
Hu Yanjie cupped his fists and saluted, "I'm leaving first!"
Just as he was about to turn around, Zhou Fei grabbed him and said, "I have something to trouble you with. At two o'clock tonight, you will find a dozen scoundrels to start a fight near Nancheng."
This request was not excessive, it was even very simple. Fights between gangsters were commonplace, and fights between gangsters were usually over gambling at night. Hu Yanjie agreed immediately, turned around and left.
As the time gradually reached two o'clock, there was only a rush of footsteps on the street, and a group of patrol soldiers ran towards the south of the city. It seemed that Hu Yanjie had fulfilled his promise.
Zhou Fei waved his hand and led fifty soldiers out. Their residence was close to the North City Gate, which faced the main street. They went out from the side door and walked through a thirty-step alley to the upper city corridor.
The soldiers all wore the iron badges of the state soldiers, which was what was in the box. Wang Jinhua got the password for them, and also gave them the state soldier tokens and even the state soldier order arrows, which turned them into state soldiers in one leap.
Of course, the identity of this fake state soldier will be exposed tomorrow morning, but at least tonight it is real and no one will find out about them.
Zhou Fei was wearing leather armor, a state army hat on his head, and a spear in his hand. He was in great shape, very strong, and looked majestic. Behind him were his forty-nine subordinates, all dressed in the same way and wearing leather armor.
Wearing hats, carrying swords on their waists, carrying spears, and carrying crossbows and crossbow bolts, they lined up to follow Zhou Fei to the city.
They already know the situation at the top of the city very well. Although Zhu Si's army in Mizhou has always been in a wartime state, the soldiers are generally relatively lax. There are 1,000 people in the city, but at night there are only 200 on duty and 100 security patrol soldiers in the city.
Then there were fifty soldiers each in the south city and in the north city to guard the city gates.
The city gates were not allowed to be opened at night. The soldiers guarding the city gates all went to find places to sleep. Only five or six soldiers sat on the tower chatting. They were on duty for midnight, and when the third watch came, they called in a few more soldiers to come over and watch.
.
At this time, the leader of the fire chief suddenly noticed a group of soldiers approaching. He immediately stood up and shouted: "The password!"
"The flowers are full and the moon is full!" the other party replied.
The password was correct, and the fire chief asked again: "Who are you?"
"We are state soldiers, here on duty under the orders of Governor Lin."
The fire chief was stunned. He hadn't heard that there were state soldiers coming to duty! He hadn't heard that there were state soldiers from Mizhou?
"I have the command arrow here, please take a look at it, general."
A little fire chief, what kind of bullshit general, but this flattery made the fire chief very comfortable, and the other party was indeed dressed as a state soldier. He had no doubts, and stepped forward to receive the copper order arrow, with the four words "Order of the State Soldier" engraved on it.
The word, "State Soldier Order Arrow" is true.
"Why didn't I hear that you were coming to defend the city? Who did you contact?"
When the fire chief asked, a dozen soldiers had already passed around from behind, and the other four soldiers were looking at this side intently. It was certainly a good thing that someone was on duty for them.
At this time, several soldiers behind them swooped up, covered their mouths, and stabbed them in the back of the heart.
When the fire chief heard the noise behind him, he turned around and saw a cold light flashing from Zhou Fei's hand, and blood spraying out. Zhou Fei immediately kicked him off the top of the city and threw him heavily into the moat.
At this time, a soldier pointed to the tower, meaning that everyone was sleeping inside.
Zhou Fei stepped forward and kicked open the door, leading his men to kill in...
