My uncles are all big guys

At night, Sishui Pass is several miles away.

Tens of thousands of soldiers wearing merchant uniforms were marching out quickly and quietly.

A majestic man, sitting on a horse, led the team at the front.

"Brother Hu, we can really sneak in like this."

Next to the team, the clairvoyant asked the majestic man suspiciously.

"I haven't heard that they have received news of Zhang Guifang's defeat. I guess we can sneak in without knowing it yet."

Gao Wen on the side gave Gao Ming an answer.

Xiaohu nodded in agreement and said to the two brothers Gao Ming and Gao Wen: "The current war is still very rigid. They probably don't have this method of dressing up for a raid like ours."

"According to the news they received, Xiqi City is under siege, and their soldiers are outside. Our presence will not arouse suspicion, not to mention that we are led by a general."

Xiaohu said, looking at Zhang Guifang's pioneer officer Feng Lin, who was sitting silently on the horse next to him.

After the encirclement and suppression of Zhang Guifang, Wang Xiao immediately ordered Xiaohu to select soldiers of similar stature to the Shang army soldiers, put on Shang army weapons, and attack Sishui Pass directly.

As mentioned before, wars in this era are still very rigid, and even in the Spring and Autumn Period, exaggerated battles based on rules appeared.

The two parties agreed on where to fight, how many steps to chase, and who was not allowed to sneak attack or kill. There was even a joke that when the enemy's car broke down, they would help repair the car and let him run a few steps before chasing.

Although it is not so exaggerated at this time, the overall fighting atmosphere is still dominated by fighting with each other.

If the opponent puts up the no-fight card, most generals will abide by the rules and will not take the opportunity to attack the city by surprise.

Until a guy named Sun Tzu appears, the way war will be completely changed.

Therefore, the chance of Xiaohu leading his troops to change into the clothes of the merchant army and sneaking into the city to seize the city gate is very high.

"General Feng, I have said everything that needs to be said. I hope you will not disappoint me."

Seeing that Sishui Pass was just ahead, Xiao Hu pulled his horse to a halt and looked at Feng Lin and warned him again.

Feng Lin nodded, "As long as you are not difficult for our general and try to rescue our family, I will cooperate with you."

Xiaohu smiled and patted Feng Lin on the shoulder, "Don't worry, our king keeps his word. The team sent to pick up your family has already set off. They are all practitioners who are good at magic. We will seize the city gate and dawn tomorrow. You can see your wife, children and children.”

This is a promise, but also a threat.

If you cooperate honestly, your wife, children, and children will be safe. If you dare to play any tricks, the whole family will not end well.

This method is indeed despicable, but for generals like Xiaohu who have been exposed to later wars, this method is actually very restrained.

"Dong-dong-dong-dong!"

Tens of thousands of people are marching, and even if the drums and drums cease, the movement will not be much smaller.

The team was still two miles away from Sishui Pass, and warning drums sounded on the city wall.

Xiaohu glanced at Feng Lin, who nodded, patted his horse and leaned against the city wall.

"Lao Ming, follow him."

Xiaohu was still worried, so he patted Gao Ming's shoulder and whispered a warning.

The clairvoyant nodded and followed closely.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves approaching behind him, Feng Lin glanced at it without saying anything, and led Gao Ming closer to the city wall.

"Who is under the city!"

"I am Feng Lin, a subordinate of General Zhang Guifang. Open the door quickly!" Feng Lin glanced at Gao Ming next to him and shouted loudly towards the city wall.

There was a pause on the city wall for a moment, and soon there was another inquiry.

"General Feng didn't accompany General Zhang Guifang in his crusade against Xiqi. Why did he lead his troops back?"

When Feng Lin heard the voice, he recognized the other person as Han Rong, the commander-in-chief of Sishui Pass.

"General Soldier Han, we were defeated, the general was killed, and I escaped back with the remaining soldiers."

"what!"

There was an exclamation on the city wall, and then another question came, "How is it possible? Xiqi has been surrounded by you, and news came some time ago that the food and grass in Xiqi City have been exhausted, and the city has been destroyed in the near future. How? May be defeated."

Feng Lin sighed bitterly and shouted to the city wall: "Ji Xiao, son of Boyikao, took over the throne of Ji Fa. He has hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command, including an army of birds."

"We suffered heavy damage from their sneak attack during the siege. General Zhang was killed by one of Ji Xiao's generals, and we were the only ones who escaped."

"Please also ask General Han to open the city gate and let us enter the city to rest. Then we will report the situation to the king and send another army to attack Xiqi."

After Feng Lin finished explaining, the people above fell into silence again.

Commander-in-Chief Han Rong held his hand on the parapet, squinted his eyes and looked at the weak and defeated army below who had abandoned their helmets and armor, and fell into thought.

"Chief Soldier, I always feel that there is something fishy about this. Why don't we let them station outside the city first, and wait until we confirm it clearly before letting them enter the city."

General Yu Hua saw Han Rong deep in thought and quietly expressed his opinion.

For some reason, he always felt that the team brought by Feng Lin below gave him a strange feeling, but he couldn't tell what it was specifically.

Han Rong shook his head, "That is indeed Feng Lin." He raised his finger and pointed at the bottom of the city, "The soldiers are so decadent that they have lost the battle at first sight. If we don't let them enter the city, Ji Xiao'er will chase us and let Feng Lin and the others fight. If he dies under the city and loses so many soldiers and horses, the king and the grand master will definitely hold him accountable."

Those who can go out to fight in the field these days are elites. There are only so many troops in the entire Shang Dynasty. If these nearly 10,000 elite troops were destroyed under the city because of his suspicion.

Even if he repelled the later Zhou army's attack, the distressed King Zhou and Grand Master Wen Zhong would not give him a good look.

Moreover, Xiqi's side has always been focused on defense, and there has been no big move yet, so Han Rong is relatively at ease.

More importantly, he has confidence in himself and his men. Even if it is fake, he has the confidence to stop it or even destroy it directly.

"Crunch!"

The heavy city gate slowly opened inwards.

Feng Lin breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to Gao Ming next to him.

Gao Ming turned back to look at Xiaohu. Xiaohu, who was listening to Gao Wen's inquiry, looked at the city wall and sneered, then raised his hand and waved.

The embarrassed troops began to slowly enter the city. The soldiers were dejected one by one, as if they had lost their energy.

However, if you look carefully, you will find that many soldiers are holding the hilts of their swords tightly at their waists, ready to take action at any time.

The team entered the city slowly, and after waiting for more than half of the time, Xiaohu followed Feng Lin and walked into the city.

"General Feng, is it true General Zhang?"

As soon as they entered the city gate, Han Rong and others were waiting to greet them.

Looking at Han Rong walking over, Feng Lin had a sad look on his face and was about to nod to confirm.

Han Rong's face suddenly changed as he approached, he pointed at the people behind Feng Lin and shouted angrily: "They all have strange faces, be careful!"

Knowing that he had been exposed, Xiaohu reached back and grabbed a pair of sledgehammers. He stood up and rushed towards Han Rong, shouting at the same time: "Take the city gate and kill!" (End of Chapter)
