Chapter 244: Sneak Attack on Nameless Town
The nameless town at night is very peaceful, full of people during the day, but at night you see someone. On the only street in town, only a few dozen innkeepers were seen patrolling.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from the entrance of the town, and more than two dozen innkeepers immediately showed their guys and rushed over with torches high.
"Who? Nameless Town does not accept anyone at night. "The leading fellow was behind the railing of the gate, shouting at the cavalry that had just arrived outside.
The three fast horses and three cavalry were the sentinels who came to meet Yuzhong in the town on the orders of Mao Wenlong.
"Our entourage of the gold lord during the day today, on the orders of the master, has something to see, I don't know if the eldest brother can make it convenient for us to go in." The leader of the sentries dismounted and came to the door, and spoke back to the leading man through the fence.
Hearing that it was the entourage of today's gold lord, the look on the face of the leading man relaxed. But he refused: "I'm sorry, the rules of Nameless Town, you are not allowed to enter or leave after dark." You'd better wait until dawn to come back. ”
The leader of the sentry suddenly frowned, he didn't give up, he smiled and took out thirty taels of silver from his body: "This is a little meaning, I hope the eldest brother will do me a favor, notify Yuzhong, let him come over, we don't have to go in, convey the master's words, we will leave immediately." ”
The leading man looked at the small bag of silver that was handed to him, and a trace of greed flashed in his eyes. Then this guy quickly picked up the silver and put it in his arms, and said with a smile: "As long as you don't go in and out, it's okay to help this little favor, please wait a while." ”
The leading man accepted the money, and immediately became much more polite, and even ordered the people around him to go and call Yuzhong.
A moment later, Yuzhong was led by two men to the gate, and he was very confused when he saw the sentry outside. When the sentry showed Mao Wenlong's token, Yuzhong was shocked.
The lead sentry lowered his voice and muttered in Yuzhong's ear for a while before he took his leave.
Yuzhong had a strange look on his face, and he slowly walked back to the inn as he watched the sentry who turned over and got on his horse leave.
The sentry informed Yuzhong that he had conveyed Mao Wenlong's plan to take Nameless Town tonight, and asked him to cooperate inside.
After Yuzhong returned to the inn, he immediately gathered all his men, and after a short discussion, a hundred people decided to go out immediately and occupy the gate first to open a passage for the arrival of Mao Wenlong's army.
If you want to work without knowing it, you naturally can't let the people in the inn go. Yuzhong led a hundred people, directly in the inn, and secretly killed more than 30 people inside.
However, an accident happened, and Yuzhong searched the entire inn, but he could not find the shopkeeper he had only seen during the day.
When Yuzhong was puzzled, there was a sudden abnormal movement outside the inn, and someone leaned on the window and glanced at it, and immediately exclaimed: "We are surrounded!" ”
Yuzhong was stunned for a moment, and his figure flashed to the window and looked outside. Sure enough, at some point outside, countless torches were lit, estimated to be about 400 people, holding steel knives to enclose the entire inn.
The sharp-eyed Yuzhong soon found that the shopkeeper he had been unable to find was outside, and this shopkeeper was standing at the gate of the inn under the protection of four guards.
When the people in the inn heard this, they immediately dropped their weapons and came out to surrender, hoping to spare you from death. Otherwise, you won't be killed! The shopkeeper's strong voice went straight to the inn room, and Yu Zhongren could hear it clearly.
With his toes, he could think that this assassination attempt had obviously failed, and Yuzhong was shocked. The power of this nameless town is not small, as far as he knows, there are 3,000 guards alone.
Moreover, these three thousand guards are all masters of thousands of choices, and Nameless Town can survive in this chaotic place, relying on these three thousand guards.
It can be said that none of the people in charge of this nameless town are straw bales, and they are all first-class good hands. This is also the reason why no one dares to cause trouble when they stand here, and they always follow the rules.
"Big brother, what should we do now?" The people around Yuzhong asked.
Yuzhong's face was cloudy, but he clearly knew that he would never surrender, and if he surrendered at this time, he would definitely not be able to gain Mao Wenlong's trust again.
There was a fixed number in the center of Chongqing, and he said viciously: "Someone is coming, immediately send a signal to inform the general army to lead the troops to attack, as long as we hold on for a while, as soon as the army of the general army arrives, these people outside will definitely scatter and flee." ”
No one objected to Yuzhong's decision, after all, they all already knew that Mao Wenlong was already in ambush outside.
A rocket exploded over the inn.
"Commander-in-chief, the nameless town has given a signal to attack." Chen Jisheng ran in front of Mao Wenlong and said.
"Attack." Mao Wenlong has no superfluous nonsense.
"Yes!" Chen Jisheng retreated, mounted his war horse, and with a shout, the three thousand cavalry immediately rushed directly to the nameless town.
The thunderous sound of horses' hooves soon appeared on the official road in front of the gate of Nameless Town, and some guards were startled when they spotted the rushing cavalry. Immediately ran to report to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper, who was at the door of the inn to persuade the Yu Zhongren to surrender, heard a large number of cavalry arriving outside. Immediately realized that it was not good, and he couldn't take care of the Yu Zhong people in the inn, so he turned around and led people to the gate.
Before the shopkeeper reached the gate, he heard the sound of killing, and the wooden barricade was set on fire. The monstrous firelight lit up the night sky and allowed the shopkeeper to see what was happening at the gate.
I saw countless cavalry rushing back and forth outside the gate, and the guards of the gate had all been killed by arrows, and the cavalry was destroying the gate at the moment.
The shopkeeper was immediately shocked, he turned around directly and ran back to the outside of the inn, and with an order, he fled to the direction of Kaifeng City with hundreds of guards.
Yuzhong saw that the people surrounded outside retreated, and he immediately led people to rush out of the inn, but he didn't dare to chase them. Instead, they ran directly to the main gate, Chen Jisheng and the others had not broken through the door at the moment, and Yu Zhongren just opened it for them.
"Where have all the people in Nameless Town gone?" The first time Chen Jisheng saw Yuzhong, he asked directly.
"General, they have all fled in the direction of Kaifeng City." Yuzhong said urgently.
"Get on the horse and lead the way for us." Chen Jisheng directly asked people to give Yuzhong a war horse, and after letting him get on the horse, he led the way.
There was Mao Wenlong in the nameless town and they came to deal with the aftermath, Chen Jisheng didn't need to care about it at all, he directly took three thousand cavalry to pursue the fleeing shopkeeper and others.
Not long after Chen Jisheng drove away, Mao Wenlong arrived with a large army, and the nameless town quickly returned to calm. The Dongjiang Army also replaced the original owner and occupied the nameless town.
