Chapter 231 Intrigue
There were about 30 people in the Jingling Army patrol team. When they saw the leader die, they were shocked and rushed forward desperately.
The people in Qingniu Mountain were as powerful as rainbows and chased after them.
Jingling City was quiet and there was no one around. In a short while, we arrived at an alley. The alley looked quite prosperous and could be used to accommodate four carriages in parallel.
Because it was night, the doors of the shop were closed, and the wind blew the lanterns on both sides of the road, shaking around.
The Jingling Army team rushed over, and the frightened wild cat jumped gently, got on the roof, then jumped down again, rushed into the dark alley next to it, and after a while, screamed!
Duan Yi saw it and quickly raised the spear in her hand.
The advancing Qingniu Army came to an abrupt end.
Old Jia's face changed and he approached Duan Yi a little, "What's wrong?"
Duan Yi tightly held the spear in her hand, "We asked someone to put aside one, and they were trapped, and there was an ambush in front of her."
Cheng Qiong, who was standing by, hurriedly waved the flag, and then the archers from Qingniu Mountain shot towards the roofs on both sides of the alley.
A few muffled groans sounded, and then a sound of horse hooves sounded. A group of people walked out of the dark alley.
The leading one was riding a tall horse, wearing a golden armor, about forty years old, with a yellow beard and a big black mole on the corner of his mouth, which looked the only point that stood out on his ordinary face.
It should be Zhang Yan, the lord of Jingling City New City.
As soon as he came out, the archers on the roofs on both sides of the alley stood up one by one and confronted the Qingniu Army.
"Duan Yi, right? I've heard of the name for a long time."
Zhang Yan said, laughing out loud.
Duan Yi's eyes moved, and her eyes quickly counted the number of enemies, "Zhang Yan, right? I just heard that. Don't laugh, this is the laughter of the villain. You are an ant, don't climb up."
Zhang Yan's smile froze on his face, and he snorted, "The duck is dead and his mouth is hard. He is dead and he is still showing off!"
"I am close to Xu Yi. When he came back from Jiannan, he told me that you are a cunning person and are best at attacking him."
Zhang Yan said, looking at Duan Yi sarcastically, "I learned that you were recruiting soldiers in Qingniu Mountain, and you will be sure that you will come to attack Jingling sooner or later. Anyone who knows you can guess that you will definitely attack on New Year's Eve."
Zhang Yan searched the crowd with sharp eyes, and locked in Li Yuan at a glance.
"Li Yuan once came to assassinate Yu and knew the way to the city. I sent someone to guard it. Sure enough, you sent someone in..."
"So what if I open the city gate? I just want me to close the door and beat the dog."
Old Jia, who was beside him, looked even more ugly.
He did enter Jingling City according to Li Yuan's method. He never expected that this was a trap set in advance by people.
He said, how could it be so smooth! At that time, he thought of killing one of them, and said that he was here to take charge of him and joined the Jingling Army, so he was a naughty face.
But today, it seems like God helps. Today, the people guarding the city today are all raw melon seeds launched by centurions. They don’t know each other very well, and no one doubts his identity at all.
He immediately changed his role and played a veteran, Brother Jia, and opened the city gate.
Have these been arranged in advance by people?
Zhang Yan looked at it, hehe... no, he thought of Duan Yi's previous words and laughed out loud.
"Duan Yi, I'm very curious, how did you know that there is an ambush in this alley."
Duan Yi sniffed, drew out three long arrows, shook on the torch beside her, and shot towards the roof again.
"Do men get noisier the older they get? The old crows on the trees are not as good as you."
When Zhang Yan saw the fire flash, he felt a twitch in his heart and hurriedly looked at the roof. He saw the three arrows, as if they had eyes, shot in three directions.
Then there was three crisp sounds of the clay pot breaking, and then a bang, the roof burned instantly.
"Fire Attack!"
Duan Yi shouted!
Old Jia Suyun and others on the side had already imitated her and shot a long arrow with fire before she spoke.
Almost in an instant, the alley that was previously deserted and dark, suddenly started to burn. The Jingling Army on the roof screamed and fell down.
Cheng Qiong sniffed, "It's wine!"
Duan Yi curled her lips, "Brothers, rush over with me. This old liar learned to carry a sedan chair for him from somewhere. He actually bluffed here, pretended to be a clever and deceived us!"
"His army has not gathered at all. He is talking nonsense here, just wanting to delay time and let his subordinates come over!"
As soon as she entered the city, she felt something was wrong.
It was just an ordinary patrol team, with thirty people, and they all rode tall horses, which was very unusual. You should know that this place is not a grassland, there are fewer horses, and even fewer war horses.
In the southern army, there are far more infantry than cavalry.
When this team encountered the enemy, the captain did not give any instructions, so they ran directly into the alley... All of this revealed extraordinary information.
Then there was the cat. The cat was frightened and could escape on the roof. But why did it jump down and crawl into the dark alley and make a shrill cry?
This means that there are people hiding on the roof and in the alleys.
All of this made her sure that there was an ambush ahead.
At that time, she felt something was wrong, so she took advantage of Zhang Yan's boasting talk to calm herself down and try to find a way to break the deadlock.
They only had eight hundred people, and the Jingling Army had five thousand people. If they were really packed with dumplings, they would probably not have lost most of them here today.
After careful calculation, she really saw the flaw.
This old thief Yan is clearly lying to them!
At Duan Yi's order, Wei Meng and Su Yun rushed forward like Li Xian's arrows, chasing Zhang Yan.
The archers were aiming at the previous thirty patrol team, and arrows fell like rain.
Zhang Yan patted the horse and shouted, "Here is here! Reinforcements are here! Hurry up, come and save your father!"
Duan Yi narrowed her eyes and saw that dust was flying not far away, and there was obviously another part of the Jingling Army.
She slid her feet and jumped onto the roof, like a dragonfly squirting the water. She instantly passed over the crowd and greeted the new Jingling Army alone.
The man in the lead was about twenty-two or three years old, wearing a silver robe, and was extremely handsome.
It must be Tao'er in Zhang Yan's mouth.
Looking at the face, Duan Yi's heart trembled. The spear in her hand had already stabbed out and pointed directly at the silver-robed man's throat.
The man in silver robe was shocked and raised his head, revealing his beautiful collarbone and Adam's apple.
The spear in Duan Yi's hand was a little faster, and the silver-robed man had no time to exclaim, and she had already shot her throat!
Lao Jia came to his senses from the twists and turns of the battle, shook his head, and breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s not that he can’t do it, it’s really the world is getting worse and people’s hearts are not old…
