"We can't care about this now. The commander-in-chief refuses to let us out of the city, so we can only wait until the enemy's siege vehicles arrive before we can plan countermeasures." Li Guang said.

Chi Zhongtian lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "In this case, you take me up, and I will go to the tower to have a look, but don't make any noise, do you understand?"

"Understood, General Chi, come with me."

After saying that, Li Guang walked in front, while Chi Zhongtian and Ye Luo followed him. When they reached the steps this time, the officers and soldiers saw that Chi Zhongtian and the others were following Li Guang, so they said nothing more.

.

After arriving at the city tower, Chi Zhongtian saw people running around him, including officers and soldiers, as well as young adults wearing civilian clothes. Some were carrying stones and some were setting up iron pots.

Li Guang quietly tugged on Chi Zhongtian's sleeve, and then pointed in one direction with his hand.

Chi Zhongtian looked forward along his hand and saw a tall man wearing armor at the front of the tower, staring into the distance.

"That's General Lu." Li Guang whispered.

Chi Zhongtian nodded calmly, signaling for Li Guang to leave first, lest anyone see them together and become suspicious again.

Li Guang smiled knowingly, and then went to find Lu Gui.

"General Lu, the commander-in-chief still ordered not to leave the city."

"What! Doesn't the commander know the current military situation?"

"I know, I know very clearly, but just one sentence, if you dare to open the door to fight, I will kill you right away!"

"Oops! This is really annoying. Lao Li, let me tell you the truth. I just received another piece of military information. It was our spies who risked their lives to find out. The enemy has now sent a military order and is determined to break through it today.

Lijiang City!”

"General Lu, this is impossible! It's not about this war..."

"General Li! Don't say anything you shouldn't!"

"Yes, you see, I am also a little confused in my anxiety. By the way, then you should think of a way!"

"There is a way. Give me three thousand soldiers and horses, and I guarantee that they will remove their armor within an hour. I can destroy all the siege vehicles!"

"Isn't it the same as if you didn't say anything? The commander-in-chief said you are not allowed to leave the city!"

"You are not allowed to leave the city, so what else can I do! Look at the siege vehicles, you can see them. It only takes half an hour at most to reach the city gate, and the enemy's wings are already outflanking us from the sides.

, I'm worried that once we let them get close, we may be in big trouble."

"General Lu, don't worry too much. Those people are just a bunch of people and won't achieve anything!"

"General Li, you are also a veteran. Underestimating the enemy on the battlefield is a taboo for military strategists. You don't need me to teach you this, right? A rabble? Can a rabble suddenly show up with thousands of people? Will a rabble know how to use a siege truck?"

"Hey, General Lu, don't be anxious. The most urgent task now is to find a way to deal with the enemy without leaving the city."

"Okay, okay, I understand. Just let me think about it. You can go and reply to the commander later and tell him to stay in the barracks without any worries. I promise you won't disturb him!"

Chi Zhongtian, who was standing nearby, listened to the entire conversation between Lu Gui and Li Guang without missing anything.

Lu Gui's method is actually very feasible. If he takes the initiative, he will definitely succeed. But Chi Zhongtian doesn't understand why King Qing doesn't let him leave the city?

If he had this right, he would definitely let the sergeant go out of the city to fight. Unfortunately, he was only here to investigate the matter and had no right to interfere with the military order.

After Li Guang finished speaking to Lu Gui, he first glanced at Chi Zhongtian, then turned around and walked away.

Chi Zhongtian slowly walked to the front of the city tower, and then looked around. There was a plain in front of him, with no obstructions. A few miles away, there were indeed several huge things slowly moving towards here. They were obviously siege vehicles.

.

However, although the siege vehicles were obvious, not many enemy troops were found. Although they couldn't see clearly, it felt like there would be no more than a few hundred people.

Is there an ambush? This inference is reasonable, but where is the ambush?

If there had been no ambush, these individuals would have been captured in just a short time.

Just when Chi Zhongtian started to think about it, many black spots suddenly appeared in the distance.

After taking a closer look, I saw where there were black spots. They were all people. These people seemed to be walking here, not riding horses, so they did not raise large amounts of dust.

Lu Gui obviously noticed it, and quickly looked around, and then shouted loudly: "All the troops, listen to the order, the enemy has appeared, be ready to fight, the archers will gather at the tower immediately!"

Following an order, commotion began again on the city tower. Many archers hurriedly came up from below and then stood at the front of the city tower, while Chi Zhongtian and Ye Luo stepped back knowingly.

A few steps.

At this moment, Chi Zhongtian suddenly thought of a way. He pulled Ye Luo and then quietly led him to the corner of the tower.

The city gate of Lijiang City is built against a mountain, so next to this corner is a mountain wall.

Chi Zhongtian glanced down, and then said to Ye Luo: "How about we go down from here and then take a look at the front?"

Ye Luo heard the words, looked forward, and then said: "It's feasible, but owner of the village, don't go. I can go by myself."

"How about that? Let's go together, but there is no cover in front of us. I'm afraid of being discovered." Chi Zhongtian said with a slight worry.

Ye Luo smiled slightly, then pointed to the side and said, "We can go over the mountain wall and slide down in the distance. We will definitely find cover."

After thinking for a while, Chi Zhongtian thought it was feasible, so he said, "Then how do we come back?"

"It will be easier to handle when we come back. If we can find out some truth, we won't have to cover up when we come back. With the height of the gate tower, I believe it should be effortless for the owner of the village."

When Ye Luo said this, Chi Zhongtian laughed. It's true that the height of this tower is only a dozen feet at most. It would be too easy for him to climb up.

Having made up their minds, Chi Zhongtian and Ye Luo took advantage of the chaos around them and quietly jumped up to the mountain wall next to them. Then the two of them quickly slapped the mountain wall with their palms.

It quickly disappeared.

After wandering along the mountain wall for a while, Chi Zhongtian looked to the side and felt overjoyed. A pile of weeds suddenly appeared under the mountain wall.
