Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 183
"General!"

The guard's voice pulled Yu Zijin out of his thoughts, and he coughed: "What's the matter?"

"Food and reinforcements have arrived!"

"Oh, that's great!" Yu Zijin laughed: "Who is escorting this time?"

"This—" the guard hesitated for a moment: "General, why don't you go and see, the escort this time is a Japanese, no, the food is escorted by Japanese, and I heard from them that they are ordered by His Majesty to come to reinforce Xiongjin City !"

"Japanese reinforcements?" Yu Zijin's heart suddenly became aroused, no wonder he would be like this, everyone knew that Fu Yu Fengzhang came back from the Japanese country, and there was also a Japanese wife, his ascension to the throne could not be separated from the support of the Japanese.After the death of Fukunobu Onimuro, sending an army of Japanese people to Woongjin City, this move is too suspicious, right?
"Where are they now?"

"It's just outside the east gate! The captain guarding the gate is unsure, so let me ask you for instructions!"

"Well done!" Yu Zijin nodded in satisfaction: "Come here, gather my guards and go to the east gate to have a look!"

With the breeze blowing, Shen Faseng felt that the armor on his body was a little tight, and his chest was a little breathless. He wanted to ask his subordinates to loosen the belt, but he was afraid of showing his weakness in front of the enemy who was close at hand, so he could only bear it. live.He couldn't help hearing what Wang Wenzuo said just now: "Since you must go, then let you go, but let me remind you in advance that the Japanese are short in stature, and you may not be able to wear their armor!" , The next step is to force yourself to put on the golden Japanese armor, and undertake the task of impersonating the Japanese general.

"What's going on, why didn't the defenders open the door?" Shen Faseng asked in a low voice, "Could it be that they discovered some weakness in us?"

"Lieutenant Shen, don't worry, Yu Zijin, who is guarding Xiongjin City, is the most cautious person on weekdays. Those who escort the military rations like this are all checking in person. The guard officer must have sent someone to invite him over!" Black-toothed Changzhi replied.

"Check it yourself?" Shen Faseng looked at the Japanese people on the left and right, feeling a little guilty. Because Japanese people are generally short in stature, in order to avoid being seen by the Baekje defenders, half of the disguised grain transport team were just captured Japanese. Except for dozens of Japanese soldiers who were captured at sea, the rest are carefully selected Tang soldiers with relatively short stature.Although Wang Wenzuo had written a bunch of empty checks to these captives before departure, saying that as long as he could take Xiongjin City, he would grant them the qualifications of the Great Tang Fanbing, and they would no longer be captives, but after all, the time is too short. Make trouble.As the saying goes, nights are long and dreams are many, the longer you delay outside the city gate, the greater the probability of being discovered by Baekje people.

Just as Shen Faseng was beating a drum in his heart, someone on the city gate asked loudly, "Where did you come from? Who is the leader?"

Shen Faseng nodded when he heard Hei Chi Chang Zhi's translation, and a Baekje guide who came with Lian Xiong from the Ministry of Materials stepped forward and said loudly: "We are ordered by the King to transport the army supplies from Zhouliu City. He is the head of the Yamato Ministry of Objects, General Lian Xiong of the Dalian Department of Objects!"

Hearing Chengxia's answer, Yu Zijin nodded. He had also heard about the reputation of the Monobube. It was a famous and ancient clan among the Japanese. It was powerful, but it has declined a lot in recent years. Dalian is an official position of the Japanese court. It is a high-ranking official who can participate in the decision of the central government, but a Japanese chieftain of this status should not be assigned to transport food. Presumably this is an official position that his ancestors once held. It is not surprising that he used it as part of the title. It is also common in Baekje.

"Do you want to open the city gate?" the guard captain asked in a low voice.

"Have you checked all the seals and deeds?!" Yu Zijin asked.

"Everything has been checked, and there is no problem!" said the captain guarding the gate: "The person who sent the seal letter is a fellow villager of the villain, who used to work under the Prime Minister!"

"Oh, then there's no problem!" Yu Zijin heaved a sigh of relief. Although Guishi Fuxin has a great desire for power, he also has an advantage. As long as there are merits, they will be promoted quickly under his subordinates. Black Tooth Changzhi is a good example. Although he was not the confidant of Fukunobu Onimuro at the beginning, Fukunobu Onimuro cherished him after Daochen died. With his talent, he treats him as his confidant, which is why he was able to quickly stabilize the situation after killing Dao Chen.

"The door is finally opened!" Seeing the city gate slowly opening, Shen Faseng finally heaved a sigh of relief, he lowered his voice and said to Heitou Changzhi: "Your figure is too conspicuous, go and watch from the back, don't come out again when something is imminent." What's wrong!"

"Yes!" Black-toothed Changzhi knew that his body shape was different from ordinary people. If someone in Xiongjin City would recognize him, he had better be careful, so he retreated to the grain transportation convoy, so that it would be less likely to attract attention.

Yu Zijin stood on the horse path of the city gate tower, observing the Japanese food delivery team entering the city. He could be sure that the people in front of him were genuine Japanese. Their armor is too worn out?This is not surprising, after many days of marching, everyone will be disheartened; look depressed?Low morale?This is not surprising, wars will only benefit the nobles. Ordinary soldiers are forcibly conscripted from their hometowns and dragged to the other side of the sea to fight. The morale will be high; a lot of people are injured?Could it be that Tang Jun was encountered on the road?How come no one mentioned this?Yu Zijin realized that something was wrong, and he was about to order his subordinates to be alert.Some of the Japanese suddenly shouted loudly, rushed out of the ranks, and ran towards the Baekje people on both sides.

"Damn, these unfamiliar Japanese dogs are still showing their stuff!" Shen Faseng had already entered the city gate at this time. He grabbed the horn beside the saddle and blew it vigorously. The thick and desolate sound of the horn suddenly sounded over the city of Xiongjin .

"Quick, close the city gate!" Yu Zijin shouted, but his voice was suppressed by the sound of the horn. Almost a second later, the straw on the grain cart was lifted, revealing the archer Tang Jun holding a semi-automatic bow and the archer inside. Four "scorpions" came and fired arrows and short arrows at the Baekje defenders who were caught off guard, while the soldiers of the Tang Army who were mixed with the Japanese crowd also drew their swords and slashed at the nearest enemy, and threw fire-filled guns into the distance. Oil pots and torches, and soon the East Gate fell into a scene of screaming and killing.

"Quick, close the city gate!" Yu Zijin pushed away the guards who were trying to cover him, but no one could hear what he shouted. The shouts covered his orders and echoed between the city walls, as if the rocks were also echoing each other.Yu Zijin rushed to the drum, picked up the drumstick, and stopped suddenly. An arrow pierced his shoulder, and the drumstick slipped from his hand weakly. The second arrow pierced his thigh, and Yu Zijin fell down.
