NOVEL NEXT Chapter 754
Chapter 770 Jiangling City Is A Mess!
State Shepherd’s House.
Liu Biao and Wen Pin had just finished their conversation when they heard a servant outside reporting that General Huang Zhong was here!
The two looked at each other with a trace of doubt in their hearts.
However, Liu Biao immediately ordered: “Invite General Huang Zhong!
Soon, Huang Zhong arrived and gave Liu Biao and Wen Ping a military salute. Liu Biao asked, “General Huang Zhong came in such a hurry, why is that? Could it be that Cao’s army outside the city has changed?”
Huang Zhong shook his head: “Since noon, there have been rumors in the army that the state shepherd is at odds with the Jiangling City merchant Jia Shi’s family. They are about to cut off our army’s food and grass. Now the whole army is panicking and talking about it.”
When Huang Zhong said this, Wen Pin and Liu Biao were shocked.
They are well aware of the seriousness of such rumors, and what shocks them even more is that the matter here has just ended, how could it be spread in the military camp?
This does not mean that there must be someone behind the scenes planning and unified command, otherwise it will never be so fast.
Wen Pin and Huang Zhong looked at each other, and said softly, “I’m afraid that the spies who have infiltrated the city have begun to act. The strength of these people is really not small, and they can spread among the army!
Liu Biao shook his head: “In addition to this, there must be those noble families in the city, without their help, these spies would not be able to do this!
“Then do you want to arrest all the merchants today?” Huang Zhong said.
As soon as these words came out, Wen Pin and Liu Biao both shook their heads: “No, our army’s rations can only last five or six days, and we also need those merchants’ rations. 39
“If you do it now, the hearts of the people in the city will be even more chaotic. If even the people are chaotic, then Jiangling City will really be in danger.”!35
Hearing the seriousness of the matter, Huang Zhong also scratched his head: “This is not good, that is not good, do we just sit and wait?”
Wen Pin said: “Until a critical moment, these merchants and aristocratic families in the city can’t settle accounts with them.
“According to my opinion, the facts must be clarified in the whole army, and the food and grass in the generals can be seen by everyone. As long as the soldiers see that the military supplies are sufficient, the rumors will be subverted!
Liu Biao nodded: “In this case, the food and forage handed over by those people tomorrow will also be carried out in public, so that more soldiers can understand.
“good!”
“Just do it!!”
After the three discussed the result, Wen Pin and Huang Zhong left Liu Biao.
Time passed little by little, and the sky gradually darkened.
Outside Gangneung City.
Guo Jia looked at the gradually rising moonlight and said to Cao Ren, “Zixiao, success or failure is tonight!”
Cao Ren nodded solemnly: “Don’t worry, sir, as long as Ximen can hold on for a quarter of an hour, I will definitely be able to enter the city!”
Guo Jia said: “You go to prepare now, half an hour later I will order the army to attack the north gate, our people in the city will also start at that time, you must seize the opportunity!
“Wenpin, tonight is your funeral!
Said Guo Jia’s mouth with a cold smile.
Inside the city, Old Zhang’s mansion!
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. Although the house was pitch-dark, there were quite a few people in black in every house.
Among them are the people arranged by Guo Jia and his own captive domestic slaves.
In the study, Mr. Zhang said to the few celebrities in the city in front of him: “Everyone tonight is about the foundation of our life, so we must not make mistakes!!
“Don’t worry, Mr. Zhang, as soon as the battle at the North Gate starts, the people we arrange will set fire to the major squares, and the people we arrange will attack the prefecture and shepherd’s house. When Wenpin’s attention is attracted, Ximen is ours. Yes!!”
“After tonight we can make a lot of money again!””
“Ha ha………”
on the city wall!
The darker it was, the more tired the soldiers guarding the city became. Just as many people were yawning and trying to fall asleep, they saw deafening footsteps coming from the city.
When I opened my eyes, I saw countless black shadows rushing towards the city wall.
“”々Enemy attack, enemy attack!!”
There were soldiers shouting loudly, shouting loudly!
The guards who had just entered the dreamland got up from the ground one by one, and without wiping their eyes, they ran straight towards the buttress of the wall.
Huang Zhong and Wen Pin were the first to rush out of the house. They looked outside with puzzled expressions on their faces.
It stands to reason that sieging a city in the dark is the most disadvantageous to Cao Jun. The towering cloud ladder alone can cost many people’s lives, but Cao Ren still has to attack!
Why is this off?
Neither of them understood, but seeing the shadow approaching, they knew that they would fight back no matter what!
The order for archery has just been issued here, and fires ignited in many places in the city, and the screams of killing are even heard from many neighbors!
Wen Pin’s face was particularly embarrassing, and he shouted at Huang Zhong: “Those Cao soldiers in the city ( Zhao Hao ) have begun to act, you must not take it lightly, you go to the prefecture and shepherd’s house to mobilize troops to destroy them!
“Instruct the four gates to guard the city gates and never give Cao Jun a chance!!
“Kill the rest of the soldiers for me! Let these Cao soldiers know how powerful we are!!”
Wen Ping issued a few orders in one breath. Although the soldiers in the city were flustered when they saw the fire in the city, they also took a long breath when they saw that their generals were behind them, and threw their fears out of their minds!
The shouts of killing sounded in this dark night, no matter inside or outside the city, there was chaos in a pot of porridge.
The cruelty of war is even more alarming in this dark night!
