Chapter 28 Before the Siege

From spring to summer solstice, the sun is scorching.

A team of one hundred people is slowly approaching Zhao County.

The city gate of Zhao County has been under martial law for the past two days. A dozen city gate guards had just received the county lord's command. Seeing this, they raised their weapons vigilantly and watched intently.

If something goes wrong, the city gate must be closed immediately.

"The outside of the city is not peaceful recently, there may be bandits wandering around, once there is a team of more than ten people, you must raise your vigilance."

The county lord's exhortations are still in my ears, so these guards have changed from their former laxity. They even search the business travelers who come and go very carefully, paying special attention to them. Even if someone bribes them, they dare not let them go at will.

Of course, this is not only the extremely strict influence of Cui Xisu to control, but also the money for bribes. Not enough.

However, as the [-]-man team approached, the soldiers who saw these people clearly let go of their original concerns.

This is not a bandit, they thought in their hearts.

It was an obvious officer army.

The orderly queue, the consistent pace, the bravery on the face, and the strong physique all showed this fact.

The most important thing is that the military uniforms and armor they wear are exactly the same Cao Jun imprint as themselves.

A thief cannot pretend to be an officer or soldier.

No matter how many people kill, they can only have the ferocity and evil spirit that is not inferior to the officers and soldiers, but it is absolutely impossible to have such details and temperament that reflect discipline and cooperation.

Several veterans even saw some familiar faces from this team, and they suddenly realized.

"I remember these few, I saw them last month when I went to the barracks with Shangguan to transport food," one of them pointed out:

"This is the Qingzhou Army from our nearby barracks."

"Looking at the weather, the Qingzhou Army has grown a lot recently."

A veteran sighed, and then muttered in confusion:
"When did Caozhou Mu treat them so generously? They actually have so many armors?"

"Tsk tsk, yes, it looks like there are dozens of copies, right?"

While the guards were discussing, many people in the Tianzhu camp were actually feeling uneasy, and even a few people were already sweating profusely.

After all, this is their first time doing this kind of thing.

The strange thing is, no matter how nervous their hearts were, how panicked they were, they never had any thoughts of hesitation or shrinking.

It seems that there is a voice in the dark constantly reminding them: General Tiangong's order must be resolutely carried out to the end.

Wu Sheng walked in the front and also noticed this, he couldn't help but snorted coldly, turned his head to stare at the most flustered people, and issued a silent warning.

What are you nervous about?Let me be natural!

The general said, the more natural they are, the more they believe.

He was disdainful and even more puzzled.

What's there to be nervous about?
Thinking of the next scene, Wu Sheng felt his whole body trembling with excitement, and he remembered that night in Zuoshiwubao again.

Feel it again soon.

He was looking forward to that wonderful feeling, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

The city gate is finally in sight.

A veteran stepped forward and asked as usual: Which army do you belong to, and what are you doing in Zhao County?
Just as Wu Sheng was about to speak, he saw that there was flying dust and the sound of horses' hooves, and a small official in black was hurriedly preparing to ride out from the city gate.

When the little official saw Wu Sheng's team, he was startled for a while, then looked at everyone's clothes, and his expression changed immediately.

He immediately took the rein, dismounted and stepped forward, asking:
"But Captain Gong sent you here?"

Wu Sheng was about to answer, but saw the little official looking at Wu Sheng's armor, nodded to himself and said, "I know Captain Gong, and this chest tattoo on the armor is unique to his general of the Gong family."

"Come, come, follow me to see the county lord, he is sending me to find Captain Gong."

"There has been chaos outside the city in the past few days, and you are about to send some troops to assist the city defense."

"What a coincidence."

Seeing that the other party was familiar with holding hands and greeting each other, Wu Sheng also smiled and let the other party lead him forward.

The surprise came too fast.

Indeed, what a coincidence.

Already within five miles.

Wang Zheng estimated the distance calmly, and felt that it was almost there. When he gave an order, the Tianjun's footsteps stopped immediately.

The two thousand Tiangang soldiers at the front all pointed to Zhao County in front of the general, with nervousness and uneasiness appearing on their faces.

Although they had seen many walls higher than this.

In the past, the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou ravaged the whole state, and countless cities were destroyed, but at that time, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of ant people besieged the city for consumption, and the consumption was so great that the opponent could not hold on, causing civil strife, and then the city was destroyed.

Siege?Very strange.

Or are thousands of people attacking head-on?

They were a little unconfident, and this negative emotion spread to the back in an instant.

There are 3000 people in the Tianfu Department, as well as the aunt and grandma team.

Their line of sight was blocked by the 5000 people in front, and they couldn't see the situation ahead clearly, but they also felt strange.

So when the footsteps stopped at this moment, everyone had the same consciousness.

A crucial battle that concerns the success or failure of the Celestial Army.
coming!
This was also what Wang Zheng was thinking about at the moment.

Compared with military chaos, robbing food, and killing officials, this is the first real battle, not only for him, but also for the Heavenly Army.

So he attaches great importance to it.

Life and death are all in this battle.

To win, you have a real foothold, and you have taken a solid first step. Only then will you really have the possibility to go on and realize the route you have planned with your own ambition.

defeat.
Not defeated!
Impossible to lose!
A sharp light flashed in his eyes, crushing all negativity before it was about to be born.

When I was in the workplace in my previous life, my habitual thinking was to seek victory before I failed, and this kind of thinking naturally exists after time-traveling.

The soldiers are fierce and the battle is dangerous. Even if the king's government has the two major killers of the system and the prophet, he really doesn't have much confidence in the face of those outstanding people who are famous in history.

He has thought countless times, what should he do if there is a day when the army is defeated?

He can accept failure in his heart.

But at least this first step must not be defeated!
He had already thought up and implemented the plan to seize the city.

Wubao is actually a very important part.

The fort was destroyed and people were killed, and there were gentry and gentry in two counties. The county monarch will definitely investigate.

At that time, I took advantage of the night to act without revealing my hiding place, and before I left, I burned and wiped out the traces, and the other party found nothing but became more vigilant.

If the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou rebelled again, he already knew about it, and he could easily guess that it was his group who did it. The rebellious army of nearly ten thousand people would directly force him to ask for help.

One's own side took advantage of the situation to surround and fight for aid.

If the county lord has not heard of it, he will definitely ask for help from his own military camp. As long as Wu Sheng and the others behave properly, they should have already entered the city by this time!
As long as you enter the city, you will be sure.

At this time, a figure in front of him was rushing towards him.

Wang Zheng took a closer look and saw that it was indeed a soldier of the Tianzhu camp. He immediately made up his mind and snapped his fingers habitually.

Snapped!
It's done!
Soon after, the messenger soldiers followed Xu Fang to Wang Zheng.

"General, we entered the city yesterday, and most of the guards at the west three gates in the city are my 120 four Heavenly Punishers."

"Major Wu has obtained all the defense commands west of the city gate according to the plan."

"It was originally done last night, but I didn't see the whereabouts of our army, so I didn't launch it."

"The major ordered me to stay outside the city, waiting for the general's new instructions!"

A look of embarrassment flashed across Wang Zheng's face. The plan he and Wu Sheng had mentioned in advance was supposed to arrive yesterday afternoon and launch the siege in the evening.

I didn't expect this group of aunts to be so procrastinating, and the marching speed was more than twice as slow as planned.

But he couldn't say that he made a mistake in his plan, so he coughed dryly and said to the messenger soldier:

"The plan remains the same, the time is adjusted to this afternoon, and the inside and outside will be launched at the same time in an hour."

"You work harder, hurry up and inform Major Wu Sheng."

"promise!"
