Chapter 409                                                             

Li Yu and others lurked near Zuo Town and secretly observed the situation in Zuo Town.

On the outside of the town of Ze Town, there is a circle of earth walls, which are only four or five meters high.

On the earth wall, you can see many soldiers on guard and guard the state army.

According to the fire chief's explanation, there were about 4,000 troops occupying the prefectures in the Shea Town.

This force should not be underestimated.

After almost the observation, everyone quietly retreated from the Sher Town at Li Yu's instructions.

They hid in the woods in the north of Pyeongchang City. Li Yu said: "Call the Feiwei and the Iron Guards, and tonight, we will do it! The goal is Zu Town!"

Everyone's expressions were right, and they all agreed.

Li Kang narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Highness, don't look at our Feiwei and Iron Guard, there are only two thousand brothers in total, but it is easy to take down the Sher Town!"

Mu Fei and Chu Zun nodded together, saying that they were right, and they were very confident about this battle.

Li Yu said seriously: "In the battle tonight, we don't have to rush to take down the Sher Town!"

"ah?"

Everyone looked at Li Yu in surprise.

Chu Ren smiled and said, "Don't you understand your Highness's intention yet?

What Your Highness wants is not the Shea Town, but to lead Li Feng and Li Ying out of the city!”

Li Yu nodded and said, "Only when Li Feng and Li Ying leave the city, can we save people in the city!"

Li Kang's eyes turned and asked, "Your Highness means that we are divided into two groups, one of us will attack the town outside the city, and one of us will sneak into the city and wait for an opportunity to save people!"

Li Yu said meaningfully: "Not only do we need to save people, we also need to turn against each other and take back Pyeongchang City in one fell swoop!"

That night, it was night.

A total of 2,000 soldiers, led by Li Kang and a total of 2,000 soldiers, led by Chu Zun, headed straight to Ze Town under the command of "Li Yu".

The two thousand soldiers all rode war horses at extremely fast speed.

When they were less than five hundred meters away from the Zuo Town, the defenders on the earthen wall finally heard the roar from outside.

The defenders picked up torches and threw them hard outside the town.

It was not long, and in the night, under the reflection of the fire, horses were galloping over.

After seeing this, the defenders' face changed suddenly. Someone hurriedly rang the gong and shouted: "Enemy attack! The enemy is coming! An enemy is coming-"

Suddenly, the town was as if it was in an uproar. People shouted and neighed, and a large number of soldiers stumbled out of the battalion's defense and rushed to the top of the city.

Cao Heng also ran out of his tent at the first time. He was not dressed neatly. He held the armor in his hand, and took it in two steps, climbed the steps to the earthen wall, and asked loudly: "What's going on?"

"General, the enemy suddenly appeared outside the town!"

Cao Heng frowned, held the arrow pile with his hands, and looked outward.

you do not say!

A horse team outside the city was galloping around the earth wall.

Before he could see clearly, he heard a sound of slap outside the city.

Cao Heng was quite experienced and could only hear the movement and immediately judged that it was the sound of the crossbow's ejection.

He quickly squatted down and hid behind the arrow chop.

Whoosh swish swish swish-

Countless crossbow arrows flew over from outside the city, and many soldiers from the state and government were not prepared enough and were shot by crossbow arrows. People screamed and fell to the ground.

Cao Heng relied on the arrow chop and put on his armor on his body, shouting loudly: "Press the shield! Dodge the enemy's arrow formation!"

The flying guards and the iron guards rode their horses and ran around the earth walls, while continuously firing crossbow arrows to the defenders on the earth walls.

At this time, the effect of the crossbow was exerted. They only had two thousand cavalry, but the dense arrows shot out, suppressing the thousands of defenders on the earth wall.

Logically speaking, in this case, they should dismount and attack directly, but the flying guards and the iron guards do not seem to be in a hurry to attack, but they just use crossbows to suppress the defenders.

"Cao Heng! Do you still know me?"

There were shouts outside the town.

Cao Heng shook his body, and his hands were squeezing the stack of arrows, carefully revealing half of his head, looking out of the earthen wall.

I saw more than a hundred riders gathered in the place dozens of steps away, light balls, torches, and pineapple illuminated the place as bright as daytime.

Among the crowd, the leader was not very old, only seventeen or eighteen years old, and was born handsome and tall, riding a tall horse with a majestic and energetic spirit.

After seeing this person, Cao Heng felt nervous.

King of Wu! Li Yu!

Aren’t the border army’s large team still in the territory of Xiaoyang Kingdom?

How could Li Yu suddenly appear in Zuo Town?

Did he come back first with the cavalry?

Thinking of this, Cao Heng grinned secretly, Li Yu personally led his troops to attack, and it was unlikely that he would like to defend Zuo Town.

He looked ugly, and hurriedly raised his hand, called a confidant, and said anxiously: "Liao Tong, hurry up and go to Pingchang City to report to King Jin and King Lu. Li Yu came to capture Zezhen in person. Zezhen is in danger! Please ask King Jin and King Lu to send troops to rescue immediately! Go quickly! Go quickly!"

"Yes! Sir!"

The confidant agreed, hugged her waist, ran down the earth wall, and hurried to Pyeongchang City.

He ran out from the west of Ze Town, and the Feiwei and the Iron Guard's large team were not here. However, the Feiwei and the Iron Guard's small rangers still saw him.

It was not difficult to intercept him at this time, but neither the Feigu nor the Iron Guard's Rangers took action, and watched the man flee to Pyeongchang City with a fast horse and a whip.

The confidant ran all the way and rushed to the city of Pingchang City. He raised his head and looked at the city, shouting loudly: "I am Liao Tong, the garrison of the Shea Town. When the attack on the Shea Town, I will meet His Highness King Jin and His Highness King Lu immediately!"

The prefecture army guarding the city did not dare to open the city gate for him rashly, and hurried to report to the Liangzhou governor Cao Ren.

Cao Ren hurriedly got up the top of the city and looked down. The people outside the city were really the confidant of his brother Cao Heng, Liao Tong.

He asked loudly: "Liao Tong, what happened to Ze Town?"

"Li Yu personally led a large army to attack Zuo Town, which Zuo Town is in danger!"

Cao Ren took a deep breath and hurried down the city gate tower and ordered Liao Tong to open the city gate.

As soon as Liao Tong entered the city, Cao Ren grabbed his arm tightly. The latter asked anxiously: "How is the Ze Town now?

So what about Cao Heng?”

"Report to Lord Cao, Lord Cao is leading his troops to fight to the death to resist the enemy's attack! The situation is critical, and the brothers have suffered heavy casualties!"

oops!

When Cao Ren heard this, he took a deep breath and was even more anxious. He said in a deep voice: "Follow me!"

He personally took Liao Tong to the Wu Palace.

After arriving at the Wu Palace, he took Liao Tong directly into it.

However, before entering the gate of the palace, he was stopped by the guards.

Cao Ren said with a gloomy face: "Zhe Town is attacked, and it's urgent! I must meet King Jin and King Lu now!"

Before the soldiers around him could speak, someone in the inner gate of the royal palace sneered and said slowly: "The King of Jin and King Lu have already rested. If there is something big, the Lord of Caozhou will wait until tomorrow morning to report!"

As he spoke, Peng Fei walked out of the door.

Cao Ren was anxious, frowned and glared at Peng Fei, and said word by word: "Is it true that even Li Yu appears in Ze Town, so important things will not be reported until tomorrow morning?

If you delay the big matter, may you Mr. Peng be responsible?"
