Chapter 317: Su Yao breaks the city, Cao Cao sighs

Su Yao’s vanguard troops entered the city!

Such explosive news not only shocked Cao Cao, but more importantly, the prince's messenger who was smiling beside Cao Cao.

"Cao, Captain Cao, what's going on?"

The messenger panicked and said:

"Are you planning to betray us?"

Cao Cao paused, knowing that something was wrong, and quickly explained, claiming that it was Su Yao's side that was attacking General Zhang Cheng in fulfillment of the alliance and to help the prince. He asked the messenger to quickly open the gate and let them into the city for support.

But the envoy didn't dare to believe it. He was not stupid and knew very well that Zhang Cheng had also sent an envoy to negotiate.

Now that there are cries of killing everywhere at the East Gate, there are only two possibilities.

First, Lord Su over there has already agreed to Zhang Cheng's request and rushed into the city before them. In this way, the prince is in danger!

Second, Lord Su on the other side was insidious and cunning. He pretended to agree to Zhang Cheng's request, and then took advantage of the open city gate to suddenly attack and kill people.

But no matter which point, these Han troops do not seem to be people who can be trusted.

Thinking of Captain Cao's frank agreement, the envoy was even more afraid of inviting a wolf into the house, so he evaded the question:
"Since the east gate has been breached, Captain Cao should attack from the east gate."

"When the army reaches the gate of the palace, we will open the gate and surrender."

The messenger's words made Cao Cao almost want to draw his sword and kill him.

The merit that was about to come to my lips flew away.

He went in from the east gate. Who will get the credit then?
It was Su Yao who entered the city first.

He just couldn't understand it. The time for both of them to arrive was almost the same, and he could have agreed without delaying the negotiations at all, just to get the credit for being the first to enter the city. How could he be robbed of this?

How did Lord Su negotiate? Did he agree before the other party even asked?
"Let's go to the east gate!"

Just when Cao Cao was wondering in frustration, Su Yao was hacking and killing frantically over there.

"Hahahaha!"

"What kind of scumbag are you? You dare to negotiate with me?!"

"All of you trash, die!"

Su Yao was seen laughing wildly and waving the lance in his hand, charging recklessly in the crowded streets.

At the east gate, Su Yao, Lu Bu and other knights created a red storm, which frightened the bandits under Zhang Cheng and made them flee in all directions.

Su Yao didn't agree to anything, regardless of conditions.

The envoy had just expressed his purpose and wanted to negotiate terms when Su Yao detained him and directly attacked the city and rushed forward!
If we say that Cao Cao came all the way here, it was because of his keen strategic vision, and he judged that there would be chaos in Lu Nu after Zhang Chun's death.

The reason why Su Yao came all this way at such a fast pace was that he was full of confidence. The current development of Lunu City was inseparable from his promotion.

It has been mentioned before that the Wuji Zhen family is a declining family in Zhongshan State. As Lunu is the capital of Zhongshan State, Zhang Chun has repeatedly threatened the Zhen family in Wuji to extort money and property.

In order to survive in the local area, the Zhen family not only sent their eldest daughter Zhen Jiang to Luoyang to seek help and connections, but also did not neglect their relationship with the Great Yan Kingdom.

Not only did the Zhen family have distant descendants serving as officials in the Kingdom of Dayan, but their own businesses also operated freely in the territory controlled by Dayan.

Therefore, when the emperor was first attacked, Zhen Jiang was able to provide Su Yao with so much intelligence support for the court to use in decision-making.

Now, with Su Yao's sudden emergence and Zhang Chun's quick defeat, the Zhen family naturally invested and supported him with all their strength. Zhen Jiang even specially left some capable people in the family to work with Su Yao.

Therefore, the city of Lunu was almost transparent to Su Yao.

In the city of Lunu in the past few days, whether it was the spread of rumors, the collusion of the surrender faction, or even the current situation where the two sides are fighting fiercely, Su Yao and the Zhen family were behind the scenes fanning the flames.

This fine effect is really fragrant.

"You, you, you are simply a devil!"

The messenger was trembling with anger:
"General Zhang will not let you go."

"Don't even think about setting foot in my Lunu City!" Su Yao, standing on his horse with a sword in hand, looked at the trembling, frightened and angry messenger beside him and sneered with disdain.

These stupid guys, they are negotiating those conditions with me and issuing such stupid threats when I am at the gates of the city. Haven't they ever thought that I don't need them at all?

No need, yes.

Although nearly a month has passed since the great victory in the Battle of Plains.

However, when the Han army was preparing for the attack, the city of Lunu became the stage for the spies to perform.

Those soldiers who had suffered a crushing defeat in the siege of Pingyuan and were in a state of panic, and now had lost all morale due to infighting, became the perfect targets for the Zhen family to win over.

It only took a few steps and no effort to persuade them to defect.

Soon, when Zhang Cheng in the general's mansion was nervously expecting a good result, he didn't know.

At the east gate of Lunu City, a group of bandit soldiers wearing red armbands suddenly launched an attack. The defenders who had not yet figured out the situation were immediately dealt a devastating blow.

So, as the messenger cursed, the east gate of Lunu City slowly opened.

"Follow me!"

"Kill the duck!"

Su Yao pointed his spear and rushed out first.

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Lian, Lu Bu, Xu Huang, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others also shouted loudly and led everyone to charge.

The Chiyun Knights of Bingzhou, the Huben Knights of the Central Army, and the infantry soldiers provided by King Rou of Hejian were all in high spirits and rushed forward with a roar.

It can be said that the blood-red Han flag flutters in the wind and the red storm sweeps like a tide.

Faced with the surging army of thousands, the defenders on the city wall were dumbfounded.

Many of them haven't figured out the situation yet.

The envoys went out to negotiate, the city gates were opened, and the Han army entered the city.

Friendly forces or enemy forces?
It was not until Su Yao laughed and stabbed the guards on their street to death with a few shots that these guards belatedly began to resist.

However, it was too late.

"kill!"

The Han knights were like a steel torrent, and in an instant they trampled to death the bandits who were resisting at the city gate.

When the survivors on the plain battlefield saw these killers coming again, they were frightened and fled in panic.

"Eh-"

"Run, run!"

"Enter the city! General Su is charging into the city!"

In just a few moves, Su Yao killed and dispersed the guards at the door. Seeing that these bandits were so weak, he immediately gave the order:
"Xuan De Yi De, guard the door, everyone else follow me!"

"Xuan De guards the east gate, Yun Chang seizes the west gate, Yi De attacks the south gate, Gong Ming goes to the north gate, and the rest follow me to charge straight into the inner city!"

"What generals and princes? We won't let any of them go, not even a single one will be left alive!"

As soon as Su Yao finished speaking, the generals took the order to attack.

They led the knights to clear the way, and the infantry soldiers followed closely behind to kill all the way.

Su Yao's vanguard army was unstoppable and the defenders of Lunu City fell into chaos.

Soon, the streets and city walls all turned into battlefields, with shouts, screams, and the clashing of weapons rising and falling one after another, resounding through the sky.

At the same time, Cao Cao, who had just arrived after walking around half the city, was shocked to see the closed city gate.
