Chapter 456
Chapter 456 Waiting for an opportunity to capture the thief
Li Yu raised his eyes and looked at the city gate.
At this time, there were not many people coming out of the city gate. He asked, "How many people in the city have not withdrawn?"
Mu Fei wiped the sweat beads from his forehead and said, "Your Highness, almost all the people in the city have been removed!"
Li Yu nodded and thought about whether there were any omissions.
Suddenly, he thought of something and asked, "Are the crops around Kaiyang still there?"
Mu Fei couldn't help but be stunned.
He really hasn't checked it out.
The shadow guard who reported the message immediately intervened and said, "Your Highness, the crops around Kaiyang City are still there!"
Li Yu frowned and turned his head and said, "Golden Crow!"
"I'm here!"
"You bring Feiwei immediately and burn all the crops around Kaiyang City!"
At this time, the crops are not yet ripe and cannot be taken away, but they must not be left to the Xifan army, which is equivalent to investing in the enemy.
Jinwu quickly agreed: "Yes! Your Highness!"
As he spoke, he ran out of the tea shed.
Li Yu said again: "Mu Fei, Chu Zun!"
"I'm here!"
Mu Fei and Chu Zun both intervened and bowed.
"You two bring the Iron Guards and deal with the Xifan Army in the city. Be sure to drag the other party into the city!"
"Yes! Your Highness!"
The two of them hurried out of the tea shed.
At this time, the shopkeeper of the teahouse came over with a pot of tea and asked carefully: "You... are you Your Highness?"
"Li Yu!"
Li Yu smiled at the shopkeeper, picked up the teapot, and didn't bother to pour it into the teacup, and drank it directly to his mouth.
After filling several large mouthfuls of tea, he handed the teapot to Liang Pi.
Liang Pi directly took off the lid of the teapot and poured all the remaining tea into his stomach.
Li Yu threw down a few copper plates, shook his head at everyone around him, and said, "Let's go! Let's go back too, and have another big battle with the Xifan Army!"
This was exactly what Liang Pi wanted, and he grinned and said, "Happy!"
He asked again, "Ultra, how are I doing? Isn't it good?
Didn't you embarrass you?"
Li Yu smiled and said, "It's okay!"
Liang Pi 'cut' and then couldn't help but exclaim: "Duoyu, I didn't expect your magic to be so powerful! How long have you been practicing magic?"
"The fools in the capital also say that Song Bai is a magic genius, and it is rare to meet in a century. I think it is not worthy to compare Song Bai with you. You are also a genius, and I'm a pus!"
"Spray over there! Don't spit on me again!"
Do you hate it?
Li Yu waved at Liang Pi in disgust.
They cannot withdraw now. First, they must buy time for the fleeing people, and second, they must buy time for the flying guards to burn crops.
In short, they must first drag the Xifan army firmly into the city.
The Xifan Army rushed over later, with four or five thousand people, plus the one thousand people who had escaped before, the Xifan Army had almost five or six thousand troops.
There are only one thousand iron guards on Li Yu’s side.
The troops of the two sides are very different.
However, Li Yu did not intend to fight head-on with the Xifan Army and make a head-on decisive battle.
He dispersed the iron guards and spread them all over the city to ambush the Xifan army that searched the city.
To put it bluntly, it is to use the city's buildings to fight guerrillas with the Xifan army.
When you encounter a small group of Xifan troops, you will rush up and kill. When you encounter a large number of Xifan troops, you will immediately withdraw and avoid its edge.
Li Yu, Liang Pi, Lu Chi, Chu Ren, Yan Wen, Feng Tang and others, and used the private houses as cover to approach the county government.
Six people lay on the roof near the county government, with their heads slightly exposed, and they watched down.
Li Yu's plan was to see if he could find an opportunity to seize these generals of the Xifan Army.
Capture the king first.
If they can capture the chief general alive unexpectedly, then they will definitely have an unexpected gain in this trip.
The six people were secretly observing, and countless Xifan troops walked out of the county government, and at the same time they carried out corpses left by the Xifan troops.
The bodies were arranged in several long rows at the gate of the county government.
Not long after, a team of Esperanto cavalry came over.
The leader wore a silver helmet with a silver original top, and a mail under the brim of the hat, protecting his face, wearing silver fish scale armor, and even the war horses under his crotch were covered with thick armor.
A soldier ran to the knight, raised his hand to point at the corpse on the ground, as if saying something.
The distance was too far, and Li Yu and others couldn't hear it clearly.
The man with silver helmet and silver armor rode his horse and walked twice in front of the corpse, pulled out his sword under his ribs and raised them high.
The surrounding Xifan troops immediately shouted in unison.
This time Li Yu heard it clearly, but he couldn't understand it at all.
It feels a bit like Arabic, or maybe Persian.
Li Yu lowered his voice and said, "I suspect that this person may be the leader of this Xifan Army!"
Looking at the respectful attitude of the Xifan army around him, everyone also felt the same way.
Liang Pi said: "Duoyu, I will rush over now and take him down!"
"Do you think you are really a heavenly soldier and general who descended to earth?"
There were hundreds of Xifan troops around the other side.
There are also many burly Xifan troops with bare upper body and the Xifan troops in black clothes.
Just rushed over and you won't get any advantage.
Liang Pi asked, "What should I do?"
Li Yu's eyes rolled, and a flash of inspiration flashed, saying, "We must first lead the soldiers around the other party to as many other places as possible!"
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up, which was a good idea.
Li Yu said: "Old Chu, Old Yan, Old Feng, you are responsible for attracting each other's attention!"
Chu Ren, Yan Wen, and Feng Tang all nodded.
The three of them slowly rubbed backwards, and reached the edge of the eaves, and the three of them jumped down.
Instead of showing up immediately, they first walked through the alley and came to an alley.
The three of them waited for a while, and a team of Xifan troops came over and were searching from house to house.
Chu Ren, Yan Wen and Feng Tang pretended to be panicked and ran out of the alley in a hurry.
As soon as they appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of the Xifan army.
Several Xifan soldiers raised their hands and pointed at them, screaming.
Chu Ren and his friends changed their faces, and without saying a word, they turned around and ran back.
It was rare to find that there were Zhou people in the city, so this team of Xifan troops was not willing to let them escape, so they quickly chased after them.
Both sides entered the alley one after another and walked quickly through the alley.
Seeing that Chu Ren and the others were about to run out of the alley, they suddenly stopped.
In just a blink of an eye, the team of Xifan troops chased them close to each other. Seeing that Chu Ren and the others stopped running, the panting Xifan troops sneered, pulled out the scimitar under their ribs, and walked towards them step by step.
Look at Chu Ren, Yan Wen, Feng Tang and others are not young anymore. The Xifan Army doesn't take them seriously at all. They think that capturing the three of them is just a good idea.
But once I got to the fight, I realized that it was not the case at all.
Three old men from Zhou Guo, each with greater strength and flexible body.
They fisted naked, but they beat the Xifan army so much that they screamed.
Outside the alley is the street in front of the county government gate. The Xifan army standing on the other side of the county government gate all heard the shouts and fighting in the alley.
People frowned, and before they could figure out what was going on, they suddenly let out a strange cry, and a soldier from the alley flew out of the alley and fell on the street with his back to the sky and earth.
Chapter completed!
