Chapter 352: Enemy Attack
Dai Cai's question was thrown out, and he subconsciously looked at the water master general's face changed slightly, he said before that he was returning from Zigui, just because his accent was more similar to Zigui's side, but he didn't take this problem into account, and he could only take a step forward at the moment, explaining:
"The nobles don't know, Xiling is deserted, it is said that the Chen people in the east are fighting, and even the people and horses on the Xiling side have been withdrawn, even if we want to go, no one can buy our fish."
This explanation is perfect, Dai Cai nodded slightly, but he immediately glanced at the water master general, and then looked at Li Xinchen: "Why are you talking about everything, can't these little brothers speak······
He finally realized what the problem was, not only were they young and vigorous, and they didn't look like they were from poor families at all, but more importantly, only two or three of them seemed to speak, and the rest didn't speak.
"This is my own brother, who is relatively timid and knows life. He hadn't been out of the village since he hadn't been in the village, and this was the first time he had ······." The pupils of the water master shrank and explained anxiously beside him.
And Dai Cai glanced back at him, still with a smile on his face, and turned to look at Li Xinchen: "This little brother, don't be afraid, isn't a bad person, can you say a word to so-and-so?" ”
Li Xinchen secretly scolded in his heart, he knew this, he would have followed to learn a few words of Sichuan and Shu dialect, and now as soon as he opened his mouth, this guy in front of him would definitely be able to detect that something was wrong.
However, his gaze turned down slightly, and he happened to see the official seal tied on the other side of Dai Cai's belt, and he subconsciously sighed in his heart.
He knows very well the situation in the entire White Emperor City, there is only one civil official plus a lieutenant in total, it is said that the civil official is not in the White Emperor City at all on weekdays, and a total of one lieutenant is responsible for civil and military affairs, and in front of him is obviously the lieutenant of the White Emperor City, and no one else in the White Emperor City is qualified to wear the official seal.
Such a coincidence?
Dai Cai's hand was already clenching the hilt of the knife, and several guards around him also sensed that something seemed to be wrong, and also walked up quickly.
"Do it!" Li Xinchen reached out and reached directly into the bamboo basket, grabbed the short blade under the bamboo basket, and at the same time he threw a punch directly into Dai Cai's stomach.
Dai Cai was suddenly struck by a blow, took two steps back sharply, the saber came out of its sheath sonorously, and the cold light flashed in front of him, and Li Xinchen's short blade had already pierced his face.
"Ahh Dai Cai snorted, and the saber in his hand subconsciously flicked forward, blocking Li Xinchen's short blade, but he was the only one who could have such agility, and a few guards behind him who had never been on the battlefield at all were easily taken down by Lu Zhiwu and others who were suddenly attacked.
Li Ping and several other soldiers outflanked him left and right, and Dai Cai turned around and was about to run, he was not stupid, the other party needless to say that it must be an enemy, and if he didn't run now, this White Emperor City would really be finished.
"Where to go!" Li Xinchen sneered, hurried up, and grabbed Dai Cai's collar. And Dai Cai's subconscious return was a knife, which frightened Li Xinchen and hurriedly let go, and the short knife in his hand was horizontal to his chest, but fortunately, Dai Cai's knife did not really cut Li Xinchen in a panic.
And before Dai Cai could continue to move forward, two short blades were placed on Dai Cai's neck at the same time, and several guards skillfully pressed Dai Cai to the ground, and Li Ping directly stuffed a rag into Dai Cai's mouth with an unhappy face.
"Take the city!" Li Xinchen didn't care about disposing of this captive, the few sounds just now were enough to alarm the entire White Emperor City, so he turned around and ran towards the only gate of the White Emperor City.
Lu Zhiwu and the others also came back to their senses and hurried to keep up with Li Xinchen. The remaining two strong soldiers simply knocked Dai Cai unconscious, and then set up the people and followed in the direction of the city gate.
The soldiers on the rest of the streets also saw Li Xinchen who was running wildly, and immediately understood that he wanted to act, and he couldn't take care of any bamboo baskets and fish, so he untied the hat and coat on his body casually, and took out a short knife to follow Li Xinchen.
For a moment, the quiet White Emperor City in the fog was shaken by the sound of running footsteps. A few
"Who?!"
Several Northern Zhou soldiers who were standing lazily at the gate of the city also saw the figures rushing out of the mist at this time, and the blades in their hands were almost subconsciously withdrawn.
Although they don't have to worry about any war, but under Dai Cai's leadership over the years, there is still daily training, and at this time, it is even more out of subconscious reaction.
"Kill!" Li Xinchen, who was running in front of him with a knife, roared, ran straight into the two soldiers who had not yet come to his senses, and ran towards the city gate, "Three people come with me, and the rest guard the city gate!" ”
Li Ping's personal guards quickly followed Li Xinchen, and Lu Zhiwu was not idle, and led the people behind him to block the Northern Zhou soldiers who roared and killed them.
Several soldiers on duty on the Shangcheng Trail also noticed the abnormality, but in an instant, the figure that rushed out of the mist directly slashed at it.
Blood splattered, fused with the thick mist, and Li Xinchen grabbed the corpse of the soldier with one hand, and the spears in the hands of several Northern Zhou soldiers behind him stabbed at the corpse regardless of three, seven, twenty-one, and all.
And Li Xinchen pushed the corpse violently without saying a word, and the spear pierced the corpse's chest. Seeing that the figure that should have been stabbed to death by himself was still moving forward, these soldiers who had never been on the battlefield, their first reaction was not to take out their spears and stab them again, but to turn around and leave in a panic.
Li Xinchen skimmed the corpse in his hand, and quickly caught up with a soldier who fell behind, and the short blade in his hand pierced through his chest neatly.
The rest of the defenders listened to the screams of their companions behind them, and almost subconsciously turned around, just in time to see a bloodied figure cut through the layers of fog and kill them. And in the mist, footsteps and roars came and went, and I don't know how many people there were.
These guys are like Yaksha Shura who came out of hell, and no one can resist it.
For a while, seven or eight defenders on the uptown trail fled in a hurry, and Li Xinchen didn't bother to arrest them, and the top priority was to quickly notify the troops waiting outside the city. Once the defenders in the city came to their senses, the more than ten of them were not enough to stuff their teeth.
As soon as he stepped on the city wall, Li Xinchen saw the blazing torches on the city gate at a glance, and rushed over there without hesitation.
There are not many defenders on the city wall, after all, it is not wartime, even if Dai Cai, the commander of Yong'an, is cautious, it is impossible to pull all the defenders to the city and watch day and night, and even the soldiers and horses patrolling the city are just a general with a hundred and ten people.
"Enemy attack!" The voice of the Northern Zhou General standing on the city gate changed, looking at those enemies who were getting closer and closer, he had long forgotten to beat the drum, and Li Xinchen's figure had already rushed to his side in the next moment, and the bright sword light filled the pupils of the general.
"Bang!" With a low sound, the blade in his hand fell to the ground, and he was very clever and did not speak. If he shouted again, I was afraid that the blade in Li Xinchen's hand would not hesitate to move forward an inch further and cut his throat.
