July 22, in the evening, Sucang City, heavy rain...

A team of vendors wearing straw raincoats and hats came to an inn in the city. After nodding to the inn owner, the shopkeeper immediately took off the hat on his head and showed his true face.

This person is actually Zhang Zhaotong, and everyone in this inn is dressed in disguise by soldiers from Jingwei Camp. Including the inn owner, the only purpose is to inquire about the location of the grain warehouse and then quickly control Sucang City.

As a commander of a flag regiment, Zhang Zhaotong didn't have to take risks himself, but he came, which is enough to show the importance of this action and indirectly shows that Xu Wenjing is very anxious now and needs to make up for the mistakes caused by her negligence...

After a while, another thin man came in outside the inn. He twisted his soaked clothes on his body, then locked the door of the inn and came to the table where Zhang Zhaotong sat.

The inn owner stood very well outside the window at the entrance of the inn and looked at them...

As soon as the thin man sat down, Zhang Zhaotong immediately asked, "How about it, have you found out? Where is the food hidden?"

The thin man said, "I have investigated everywhere, but there is only an old view in the north of the city that is very suspicious. There are thieves dressed as ordinary people around to guard it back and forth, and the guards are very tight. In 1999, the military advisors are there to find something..."

Zhang Zhaotong asked again: "Did you ever find out the internal situation clearly? How many people are guarding me?"

The thin man shook his head: "No, they are too tight to guard. I am afraid of exposing bad things, so I dare not approach it. But my subordinates probably will not be less than a hundred people in the old temple."

Zhang Zhaotong thought about it carefully when he heard this, then slapped the table and said, "It seems that most of the food is there. It is not advisable to start tonight. We will be prepared to everyone and make sure to end the battle as quickly as possible. I will lead the team in person!"

The thin man hurriedly said, "Commander Zhang, how can you lead the team to operate in person? This is too dangerous..."

Zhang Zhaotong waved his hand and said, "No need to say more, go to the old temple at midnight tonight, and order the brothers hidden everywhere to prepare for battle. Remember to change the crossbow strings and don't let the rain soak it..."

When the thin man heard this, he nodded helplessly, then bowed his hands and quickly put on his straw raincoat and hat, walked out of the inn gate again, and went to notify the soldiers ambushing in Sucang City...

Zhang Zhaotong picked up the teapot on the table, poured a glass of water into his cup, and then sipped silently, his eyes became particularly cold. When he found that the inn owner's wife was carrying a basin of clothes to be washed, and passed by his eyes with a pale face and thin face, she sighed softly and said to himself: "Isn't it because you guys can live a good life in the future? If not, I, Zhang Zhaotong, should have already made contributions to the attack on Gaoyang with the military governor, alas..."

...

At midnight, the entire Sucang City fell into silence, and there was no other sound except for the pleasant sound of raindrops falling on the tiled houses and the water tanks under the eaves.

However, in such a stormy night, a fierce battle is quietly unfolding...

"Ba da...Ba da..."

A burst of rapid footsteps sounded on the silent and unmanned street. Iron boots stepped on the water-stalk, causing water droplets to splash and make a slight vibration...

The elite troops of Zhang Zhaotong, who were hiding in Sucang City, rushed to the designated location in all directions.

There were 88 soldiers who had mixed into Sucang City. These 88 were the elite soldiers selected by Zhang Zhaotong to carry out the "grain grab" operation. Each of them had good martial arts skills and was very suitable for carrying out this secret operation.

When they were fifty steps away from the south gate of the old view location described by the spy, eighty-eight people gathered together within the agreed time.

Zhang Zhaotong was wearing two hammers with combined hammers under his armpits. He bent over and took out the fire break and directed the soldiers hiding under the eaves on both sides and said, "Remember, after entering the old view, kill people when you see them. Don't hesitate, fight quickly and decide quickly. Don't let the enemy react and burn food!

Remember to have four people in groups, three in groups, heavy armored swords and shield hands are in front to cover, and crossbowmen are behind, so as to protect the horn and long sword hands are on the side. Don’t let the enemy have any opportunity to take advantage of, do you understand?”

Eighty-eight people answered in unison: "I understand..."

Zhang Zhaotong nodded: "First kill a few people at the door, leave three groups of people to let go, and the rest quickly rushed into the Breaking View and act..."

After saying that, Zhang Zhaotong extinguished the fire break, and soon the eighty-eight people immediately took off their straw raincoats, exposed their iron armor, then took out various weapons, and slowly approached the old temple according to Zhang Zhaotong's instructions.

"Shit~"

"Puff~"

As soon as we approached the south gate of the old temple, the crossbowman in the front line stood behind the sword and shield hand and aimed at the two pseudo-Chang thieves standing under the lantern. At the same time, the two crossbow arrows hit the target at the same time. The two guards were killed and fell to the ground. Fortunately, the heavy rain covered their movements of falling to the ground, and the guards behind the door did not find anything strange.

Two groups of soldiers quickly stepped forward. When they arrived at the corpse, they carefully explored their necks. After confirming that the person was dead, they took off the lanterns from the door and turned twice toward their companions who were hiding behind.

Soon four groups of people slowly formed a formation and completely controlled the outer periphery of the old view.

After confirming that the enemy had been eliminated on the outer periphery of the old temple, Zhang Zhaotong brought the rest to the gate of the old temple, nodded to the two groups of people, and then left a group of people, and then took a group of people to quietly walk towards a broken wall on the side.

The wall of the old view was not very high, only ten feet high. Two soldiers stood under the wall. Zhang Zhaotong wiped his cheeks that were wet by the rain, and then helped him run towards the wall.

The two soldiers stretched out their hands with iron mesh covers at the same time, and jumped up as Zhang Zhaotong. As soon as the soles of their feet fell to their palms, they immediately pushed upwards and steadily led Zhang Zhaotong to the wall.

After leaping onto the wall of the old temple, Zhang Zhaotong squatted down and looked at the situation inside the temple with cold eyes. But he saw that it was pitch black all around, and only the huge Taoist temple was lit up.

After a moment of contemplation, Zhang Zhaotong jumped into the sight...

"Who are you..."

"Bang~"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he landed, he was discovered by a thief who was dozing off in the dark. However, as soon as the thief shouted, his head was blown open by Zhang Zhaotong...

Then Zhang Zhaotong touched him one by one, killed a total of seven thieves in his sleep, and then came to the gate of the old temple, opened the gate, and put the soldiers who seized food into the old temple...

Under the leadership of Zhang Zhaotong, the seventy-six people walked towards the brightly lit Taoist temple step by step...

When he came to the Taoist temple gate, a sword and shield hand said to Zhang Zhaotong: "General Zhang, will there be ambush inside?"

Zhang Zhaotong: "The arrow is on the string, I have to fire it. Remember to end the battle quickly."

After saying that, he kicked open the Xunyin Guanguan door and rushed in first.

"It's true that they are all here! This trip is not in vain!"

Looking at the two layers of rice bags piled up in the upper and lower layers of the view, Zhang Zhaotong knew that his trip was not in vain.

"Shit ~"

"Well……"

Three crossbow arrows shot out at once, and immediately pierced the throats of the three thieves who were still in a hazy state of sudden situation.

"What's up?"

"Bang~"

A thief immediately walked out of a room when he heard the news. He didn't want to start speaking and was smashed to the ground by a half-man high-long shield in the hand of a sword and shield.

"Puchi..."

Before he could get up, a thief next to him waved the two-meter-five-meter-long iron bar in his hand and pierced his chest. The thief stopped breathing in extreme pain.

"Swish~"

"Ding~"

"Du~"

At this time, several thief archers appeared on the second floor. They aimed at Zhang Zhaotong's troops and shot them. Unexpectedly, their bows and arrows fell on the iron armor and long shield of the sword and shield hands. The heavy iron armor protected the owner of this body intact and did not cause any damage to him...

"Second floor, speed, kill, no one left~"

"Shit ~"

"Puff puff puff puff~"

Zhang Zhaotong gave the order, and then another slight sound of a powerful crossbow pulling the trigger. The thief archers on the second floor immediately screamed and were overturned, falling into a pool of blood...

The five groups of men immediately rushed to the second floor, and then immediately fought with the thieves who were rushing to the scene...

"Bang~"

Zhang Zhaotong swung his two hammers and instantly killed two more thieves, and then ordered people to stay and continue to look for the remnants. He jumped to the second floor...

“Hey~”

With a loud shout, Zhang Zhaotong had just gone up to the second floor when he saw a pierced pierce through the abdomen of a thief with a gun. The thief's face was covered with blood. After a groan in pain, he fell on a bag full of food.

This army showed extraordinary combat power and finally eliminated 104 thieves in the old temple at the fastest speed, but no one was injured or killed.

“Swish~”

After the fight ended, Zhang Zhaotong pulled out his sword and stabbed it hard into a bag of food. However, when the rice fell to the ground like a spring, Zhang Zhaotong nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, a soldier reported to Zhang Zhaotong's military information: "You reported to the general that all 103 people in the old view were killed, and our army had no casualties..."

Zhang Zhaotong said: "I know, I'll order people to search carefully. Don't escape from the net, so as not to cause more serious trouble."

"Abide by the order!"

The soldier shouted loudly and continued to do his own thing.

After finally confirming that there was no one else in the old temple, and there was a granary built underground in the old temple, which was also full of food, Zhang Zhaotong finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Xu Wenjing explained that his task was finally completed.

"Next, it's time to report the victory to the military advisor..."

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhaotong came to the outside of the rainy door alone, then took out the "Sign Cannon" hanging on a corner of his waist, aimed it at the sky, and pulled down the leads heavily...

"Boom, bang~"

"This guy is really reliable, haha..."

Xu Wenjing saw a roaring red fireworks flashing across the sky, and her heart that had been hanging tightly for several days finally dropped.

This is an agreement between himself and Zhang Zhaotong. If there is food in Sucang City, use red fireworks as the signal, and if there is no, use green as the signal. Now this result makes him very satisfied...

"Send the whole army to attack Su Cang!"

Xu Wenjing, who came back from shock and joy, immediately began to prepare for the siege. Now he no longer needs too much attention...

"Woooooooooooooo~"

"Kill~"
Chapter completed!
