Chapter 198 Lifting the Ban(1/2)
"Peng!"
Wu Nanpu, who was wearing leather armor, was thrown to the ground.
The ground was so hard that all the bones in his body fell apart.
After a period of darkness, Wu Nanpu opened his eyes. There were voices and horses neighing everywhere, and there were surging energy and blood fluctuations in all directions.
In front of him was a black war horse, with a majestic man sitting on the horse.
Looked at him with extremely cold eyes.
"Sir, we have captured a leader of the detectives. According to those detectives, this man is the centurion of the Wanping thieves in Yuncheng."
The strength realm warrior who had captured him earlier reported to the man on the horse with his fists clasped.
The man on the horse hummed, but didn't give much reaction.
"My lord, he is a centurion after all. Kill him to sacrifice to the flag?"
"Don't kill, don't kill, don't kill!"
Wu Nanpu shook his head, woke up instantly, and quickly surrendered to the man on the horse.
Cao Su looked at the unlucky centurion of Yuncheng and asked coldly: "Who are you?"
Wu Nanpu trembled and knelt on the ground. Facing such strong men, he could only tell the truth: "The villain is Wu Nanpu, the centurion of Yuncheng, a collateral disciple of the Yuncheng Wu family."
Yuncheng martial arts family?
It turned out that this person was a member of the Wanping Army who joined later.
"The Wu family is in Yuncheng. What kind of family is it?"
Cao Su was riding a horse, looking down from a high position.
Wu Nanpu said "Ah". Unexpectedly, the first question this adult asked was not about the information about Wanping Army, but about the situation of a family in Yuncheng.
He answered honestly: "The Wu family has been standing in Yuncheng for hundreds of years. It is one of the big families in Yuncheng. Yuncheng is not big, and half of the people are related to the Wu family. In the past, the lord of Yuncheng City, Wen Ji, was the son-in-law of the Wu family."
"Are you a descendant of the Wu family?"
Cao Su looked at Wu Nanpu carefully. He was young and had ordinary martial arts skills. He looked very ordinary indeed.
Wu Nanpu nodded with a flattering smile: "Yes, sir, I am a descendant of the Wu family."
"What did you do before?"
"I used to be a guard for the Wu family and a guard. After the Wanping Army came, I heard that I could become a centurion, so I defected to the Wanping Army."
After hearing this man's answer, everyone in Cao's army couldn't help showing contempt.
This man steers the ship when the wind blows. As soon as the Wanping army arrives, he immediately abandons his master's family and seeks high-ranking officials and generous salaries. This is really despicable.
Cao Su's face was always calm.
"Who is in charge of Yuncheng now?"
"He is headed by Hu Rong, one of the thirty-six canal commanders of the Wanping Army. Marshal Hu led five thousand elite troops and was stationed in Yuncheng to serve as the northern barrier of the ancient Yue City."
After hearing the name Hu Rong, Cao Su immediately felt very familiar.
Cao Su was not surprised when five thousand elite soldiers of the Wanping Army were stationed in Yuncheng.
This place is not considered an important transportation route, but if the Guyue Wanping Army rushes north, it will inevitably pass through this place. If Yuncheng is held, it will block the retreat route of the Guyue Wanping Army.
Zhang Ke, who was standing next to him, suddenly spoke and said disdainfully: "Are you considered an elite soldier?"
Wu Nanpu was very embarrassed when he said this.
He gritted his teeth and said: "To tell you the truth, I can indeed be regarded as an elite soldier in Yuncheng."
Cao Su looked Wu Nanpu back and forth and asked in a cold voice: "Centurion, do you want to live or die?"
Wu Nanpu knelt down and begged for mercy: "Sir, I'm willing to surrender, but please spare my life!"
"It's easy to keep you here. Next, you have to listen to me. Do you understand?"
Cao Su said indifferently, his eyes as calm as water, as if in his eyes, Wu Nanpu was as tiny as dust and not worth mentioning at all.
Wu Nanpu quickly agreed, his life was at stake and he could not hesitate at all.
...
...
There is a rumor in Yuncheng.
It is said that a large number of officers and soldiers appeared in the north and are about to arrive in Yuncheng.
The officers and soldiers are coming!
Following this rumor, the entire Yuncheng began to become turbulent again.
Some families secretly colluded with each other and turned from good citizens to loyalists.
Once the officers and soldiers arrive, will these ten thousand soldiers occupying the city disappear?
This world is probably still the world of Qianyuan.
Yuncheng was turbulent, and countless pairs of eyes were staring outside the city, waiting for the day when a camp of officers and soldiers would be stationed outside the city.
This is evidenced by the fact that the Wanping Army closed the city gate from this day on.
Once the city gate is closed, no one can enter or leave. There is a daily martial law and the atmosphere is tense.
All these signs indicate that the officers and soldiers are really here.
In this way, people from all walks of life in Yuncheng looked north every day with complicated emotions.
However, the strange thing is that for three days in a row, no one came to Yuncheng at all.
Where are the promised officers and soldiers?
Everyone was puzzled.
From the major clans to the Wanping Army, everyone was eager to see through it, but in the end, the other party never came to Yuncheng at all. The enemy they had imagined for a long time did not know where they were.
Is this news really accurate?
Some people began to question, if there are no people around every day, Yuncheng can’t remain closed, right?
As the current leader of Yuncheng, Hu Rong is also under great pressure.
He had no choice but to announce the lifting of the ban and allow various caravan residents to enter and exit Yuncheng.
........
A place more than ten miles south of Yuncheng.
It is a dense forest.
The Yuncheng pressure and grain team slowly came from the south.
With the development of the Wanping Army, it has evolved from an early rogue army to a regular army that attacks cities and territories.
To capture a city, in addition to plundering the city's supplies, what is also needed is to collect food from the countryside or other places and escort it to the city.
This pressure and grain team is the largest pressure and grain team in Yuncheng in recent times.
There were more than 30 high-pressure grain trucks alone, and there were also a large amount of ordnance supplies.
In order to protect this pressure and grain team, Hu Rong sent a school of troops, that is, 500 elite soldiers to protect it.
Although the transportation was in the hinterland, Hu Rong was still very cautious.
The chief officer of this pressure force team is his most capable general and a warrior in the realm of strength.
The pressure and grain team came slowly, and there was only more than ten miles away from Yuncheng.
The grain-pressure officer was riding a horse at the front of the grain-pressure team, his eyes always looking around with vigilance.
For some reason, he felt that the woods were particularly quiet today.
The quiet woods, without a single sound of insects or birds, seemed particularly unusual.

Just then, a loud noise came from the woods.
Then, countless strange sergeants rushed out of the woods!
"Enemy attack!!"
The shrill roar of the food officer sounded, making people both shocked and angry.
I don’t understand why we encountered enemy troops when we were so close to Yuncheng?
How did these enemy troops appear?
Boom boom!!
The martial artist with terrifying energy rushed down the mountain like a tiger and rushed into the army of people.
They killed everyone they saw, whether they were Wanping soldiers or slaves in the pressure and grain team. No one was spared. For a while, screams resounded through the woods. The pressure and food team suffered heavy casualties and blood flowed like rivers.
