Chapter 144 Rescue someone late at night
The final result of the discussion is to see when the enemy will discover it.
On the afternoon of the second day, the enemy finally realized something was wrong, because the Imperial Guards were still hanging around on the city walls of the capital, and no one came to relieve them.
A scout ran all the way from the city gate to the military camp, watching the deputy general eating, drinking and having fun.
The scout rushed forward and said, "Deputy General, Deputy General, something is wrong. The general and his men did not come to the city wall to relieve the guard!"
The deputy general was about to sneer, but his past experience immediately made him stand up.
"What do you mean? Are there still the enemy's Royal Guards on the city wall?"
"Yes, Deputy General, what should we do?"
The deputy general's heart was pounding. They were careless and had been advancing so rapidly all the way that he didn't expect the possibility of failure.
The deputy general glared at his subordinates who were drinking, "Stop drinking, get up!"
The subordinates were startled and stood up quickly, "Deputy General, what happened? Is it an enemy attack?"
"Who dares to attack? I will kill him!"
There was chaos all around, but no one reacted yet.
The deputy general had a gloomy expression on his face. "Asshole, no one in the capital city changed guards. Do you know what it means? All the people are gone, all gone!"
Thirty thousand people, are they all gone?
The deputy general almost lost his temper. Was there a scourge in the capital? Or did Chu Yu and the others not poison the city?
He thought of a terrible possibility: perhaps the two men had surrendered to the enemy and were luring the enemy deeper into their territory.
Everyone present gasped and looked at the deputy general in horror.
Thirty thousand compatriots, all gone? How did they disappear?
One of the subordinates cursed loudly, "Damn it, I'm going to challenge him. I don't believe the general is gone."
As he said this, he ordered his men to bring out a big horse, took his weapons, and ran out of the military camp.
Everyone put on their armor and took up their weapons and ran towards the city wall.
When they arrived at the foot of the city wall, the deputy general finally realized something was wrong. All the crossbows on the city wall were directed towards them. Compared with just now, the Royal Guards had already formed a defense.
The commander of the Royal Guards stood behind the fortifications and said to his deputy, "Order everyone to watch out for arrows and not to show their heads!"
"Yes, my lord!"
A young general rode out of the enemy's camp, spoke in a loud voice, and pointed his spear in the direction of the city wall.
"Shameless boy, come out and die quickly, don't be a coward!"
The soldiers behind him started cursing one after another.
The commander of the Imperial Guards looked solemn and ordered his men to push the enemy generals to the front.
"Look up and see who this is?"
The enemy general had his helmet and armor removed and was wearing a gray inner garment. His hair was disheveled and even had weeds on it.
When the general saw his troops, he was so ashamed that his eyes turned red and he started to sob.
The commander of the Imperial Guards slapped the enemy general and said, "Haha, you idiots, do you really think we are poisoned? We are all lying to you!"
"Let me tell you, those two had surrendered long ago and told us about your situation, so we took advantage of their tricks and set them up for you."
"Tsk tsk, 25,000 soldiers, did you see the fire yesterday? It was burning the bodies of your troops."
The deputy general was startled. Oh no! The other side was trying to undermine the morale of the troops.
"Stop talking nonsense. As long as you release the general, we will immediately retreat a thousand meters!"
The deputy general shouted directly that as long as the other party released the general, they could fight back even if they retreated.
The commander of the Royal Guards snorted coldly and waved his hand, "Shoot!" The whistling sound continued to be heard, and hundreds of arrows fell from overhead. The vanguard troops held up shields to resist, but many soldiers still died.
The enemy archers began to fight back.
Both armies were testing the waters in their attacks, and no one came out of the city walls to fight.
Both sides suffered casualties in this battle, and it was not until the afternoon that the order to retreat was given.
Hundreds of Royal Guards died, but without reinforcements, they could not continue to suffer casualties like this.
The commander of the Royal Guards directly ordered his men to tie the enemy general to the city wall, in a very conspicuous position.
In the enemy's military camp, inside the commander's tent, the deputy commander sat there with a gloomy face, while his subordinates around him were arguing with red faces.
Although everyone offered suggestions, none of them could guarantee the general's safe return.
An aide leaned over to the deputy general's ear and said, "Deputy general, do we really have to wait? The longer we delay, the closer it will be for King Han to return. If we don't take over the capital soon, I'm afraid something will happen!"
The aide's voice was very low, but everyone heard it, and everyone changed color. The aide meant to give up the general, but what should we do in the future? What should we do if we are questioned when we return to the country?
The deputy general was also very hesitant about this and pretended to be reluctant.
"No, the general has devoted his life to the country, we can't abandon him!"
Everyone present was his confidant, so he wasn't worried about the news leaking out. However, it was heartbreaking to just give up on someone like that, so he had to pretend.
The staff was silent for a while, "Deputy General, we have lost 25,000 soldiers. The lives of ordinary soldiers are also lives. We can't risk their lives. The sooner we end the war, the better it will be for us."
The deputy general was somewhat moved, and after a while he seemed to have made up his mind, "Tomorrow morning, let's go rescue the general again!"
"Yes, Lieutenant General!"
The night wind was very cold, and the scout also said that the general was tied to the city wall.
The deputy general slammed the table, "Assholes, the Chu people are all treacherous villains, if we have the ability, let's fight with real swords and guns!"
He only dared to talk big. If he met General Mu, the Prince of Han, or the Major General of the Mu Mansion, he would not dare to speak big words.
One of the subordinates had received a favor from the general, and although he did not dare to speak openly to the general, he still mentioned it cautiously.
"Deputy General, how about we try a surprise attack at night? See if we can rescue the general? If the general is here, it will definitely stabilize the morale of the army!"
The deputy general raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the other party calmly. Seeing that he lowered his head and dared not look at him, a murderous intent surged in his heart.
But it was quickly covered up, "Okay, then let's try to rescue people at night. You will lead the team and you can choose the people yourself. Just pick anyone who is suitable."
"Yes, Lieutenant General!"
The subordinate knew that he was exposed, but there was nothing he could do; he didn't want to give up the general like this.
Tonight is the last chance. If he succeeds, with the general protecting him, the deputy general won't dare to do anything to him.
If you fail...
Well, people are dead, what can we say if we fail?
The deputy general watched the people leave, and the subordinates beside him sneered, "Haha, I didn't expect that there are still people standing over there beside us."
"That's right. A man who knows the current situation is a hero. If you can't even tell the difference, you deserve to die."
The deputy general had a gloomy face and did not speak a word. Instead, he looked ahead with a dim gaze.
In the darkness, only the light of the torches on the city wall remained, and several people approached the wall carefully.
The wall is too high and we have to use tools.
They were careful not to make any noise, and the man finally climbed up the wall and rushed towards the general.
The general heard the voice and looked at him with complicated eyes.
