Chapter 440: Confrontation in front of the city
At this moment, the two sides are still confronting each other up and down the South City Gate. (www
However, since "Lu Feng" claimed to be Huang Zhong's defeated army, the tense atmosphere has somewhat eased. The soldiers on the city no longer regard the "defeated army" below the city as enemies.
The archers even put down their bows and arrows. However, even so, no one planned to open the door immediately. They were all waiting patiently for the order from the prefect's mansion.[
The "defeated army" under the city was more or less anxious, especially as time passed, this anxiety became more intense.
You must know that it is very dangerous for the soldiers to use such deceitful tactics. If they successfully break into the city gate, they must hold on to the death to create conditions for the follow-up army.
The price of holding on to the death will definitely be high, and more than half of the hundreds of people in their group may be killed or injured.
If the failure is even worse, it is very likely that the entire army will be annihilated.
Zhou Yu's soldiers are all elite. They fight on the battlefield and do not blink when facing the light of swords and blood. However, this kind of waiting is also painful.
In response to this, Zhou Yu's heart was extremely calm. Although the blood in Zhou Yu's body was flowing faster and his heart was beating at the same rate.
Somewhat excited.
This is not Zhou Yu's fault. Facing this big piece of fat in Xiangyang County, no one can resist the temptation.
But despite being very excited physically, Zhou Yu's mind was still very calm.
The closer some people get to critical moments, the calmer they become and the more they can unleash their huge potential. Undoubtedly, Zhou Yu is such a person.
As for being anxious, Zhou Yu didn't feel anxious at all. Because Zhou Yu knew that no matter how unknown Meng Jian was, no matter how new he was, he was still a county guard.
As a county guard, you should have some rules. You can't let him in casually.
In addition, Zhou Yu was also very confident in his own strategy and was so well prepared that Xiangyang City was already considered a treasure in his pocket.
Therefore, it is impossible for Zhou Yu to have any anxious thoughts.
As time slowly passed, Meng Jian's carriage appeared near the city gate and advanced towards the city gate at an extremely fast speed.
"Huh." When the carriage arrived in front of the city gate, the coachman shouted and stopped the carriage.
Meng Jian quickly got off the carriage, stepped onto the stone steps, and walked up to the city.
"Sir," the soldiers guarding the city couldn't help but salute when they saw Meng Jian arriving.
Meng Jian ignored the soldiers. He came to the female wall and lowered his head to look down at the defeated army below the city.[
Huang Zhong's failure caused a great shock to Meng Jian. But as Zhou Yu thought, it was impossible for Meng Jian to let an army enter the city so easily, and it was still evening.
This time, in addition to Meng Jian, there was also a minor official who came to the city. This minor official was in charge of the military roster.
"Did Lu Feng check it?" Meng Jian lowered his head and observed the "defeated army" under the city. He didn't notice anything strange, so he couldn't help but turn around and asked the clerk.
"We have already investigated and found that there is indeed Lu Feng. He is forty years old, Uncle Du." The clerk replied respectfully.
"Yes." Meng Jian nodded, but he still did not let go of the suspicion in his heart. After pondering for a moment, he shouted loudly to the people in the city: "Uncle Lu Dub, I am with Chen Bapo, the military lord of the Han Sheng Army.
For reasons of origin, I wonder what happened to Chen Ba this time when Han Sheng was defeated?"
