Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 530: Seizing Chengshanzi and beating the dog behind closed doors
"Is there any movement on the city wall?"

"My Lord, there is no movement at the moment."

Ten miles away from Chengshanzi, the army led by Su Chen is stationed here.

Now, they are waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to attack Chengshanzi!
As for Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin, Su Chen believed that they could successfully control the city gate with the cooperation of Jin Yong and others.

As long as Cheng Chumo and his men sent out a signal, Zhou Jinlan beside him would immediately lead 18,000 elite soldiers to rush into Chengshanzi and take control of it firmly.

"Your Highness, are you worried that something unexpected happened to Cheng Chumo and the others?"

Zhou Jinlan stood beside Su Chen, looking towards Chengshanzi in the distance.

Su Chen shook his head, "We have made preparations in Lincheng, so there shouldn't be any mistakes."

"I'm just worried about whether we can successfully enter Chengshanzi before Liwang Qilin's reinforcements arrive at Chengshanzi."

They had received the news that Liwang Qilin's reinforcements were coming to help Chengshanzi one day ago.

According to the speed of the cavalry, they will arrive at Chengshanzi by noon tomorrow at the latest.

If they fail to take control of Chengshanzi before they arrive at Chengshanzi, accidents could easily happen!
Zhou Jinlan nodded. "I have already sent out scouts thirty miles away. If Li Wang Qilin's reinforcements arrive, they will be able to get the news immediately."

Su Chen glanced at him and didn't say much.

suddenly.

There seemed to be a light rising on the city wall in the distance.

A cavalryman rode over in a hurry, "Your Majesty, Cheng Shanzi's signal has appeared!"

"it is good!"

"Night attack on Chengshanzi!"

Following Su Chen's order, 18,000 elite soldiers all set off and rushed towards Chengshanzi.

South Gate.

Cheng Chumo and the other man wiped the blood off their faces and turned their gaze to Jin Yong who was leading his men over.

"Have you guys dealt with everything?"

"We have dealt with the defenders on the city wall, and the signal has been sent out. What is the situation at the other three city gates?"

"It's almost time to rest."

Jin Yong grinned.

They didn't put any poison in the food, they just added some powder to make them sleepy.

and so.

On the surface, there was nothing unusual about these people. Even if someone noticed something was wrong, they just suspected that they were too sleepy.

"The prince is here!"

Cao Yuan looked outside the city and saw figures running towards him quickly in the cover of night.

Cheng Chumo and the others looked at each other and smiled.

After dealing with the defenders on the city wall, they opened the city gate.

In other words, Su Chen and others could run all the way into Chengshanzi without any obstruction.

By the time the army arrived at Chengshanzi, the defenders on the other three city walls naturally had no ability to resist.

Soon, Su Chen, accompanied by Zhou Jinlan, walked into Chengshanzi.

"Your Majesty."

"Has it been discovered?"

"not yet."

"very good."

Su Chen nodded with satisfaction, "Now each of you leads your troops to take down the other three city gates."

"Don't leave anyone alive."

"what?"

Hear the words.

Cheng Chumo and the others were suddenly shocked.

"No one left alive?"

"Leave no one behind!"

Su Chen said with a serious expression, "For the next plan, we must not leave a single person alive!"

"Zhou Jinlan."

"The end will be here."

"Now follow Jin Yong and the others to capture Mu Duochi. Don't make too much noise!"

"Yes!"

Zhou Jinlan nodded, immediately led her troops, and left with Jin Yong and others.

Lan Gu looked at the Tang army generals who were leading their troops one by one and couldn't help but sigh. Now the city and the mountain were gone.

In just an incense stick of time, a sound of fighting was heard in the city, but the sound of fighting came quickly and went away even faster. It did not attract much attention in the city and disappeared without a trace.

The first to return were Zhou Jinlan and others.

"Your Majesty, Mu Duochi's head is here."

Su Chen nodded and looked into the distance, wondering where Cheng Chumo and the others were.

suddenly.

A bonfire suddenly appeared on the northern city wall, with thick smoke billowing.

"Oops!"

"There's a problem with the garrison in the north!"

"Your Majesty?"

Su Chen's face darkened, "Zhou Jinlan, quickly go to the north wall to provide assistance!"

……

North Gate.

Yuchi Baolin killed a defender who rushed towards him with a knife, and cursed inwardly in anger.

Damn bastard.

If they continued to sleep, he could let them die in their sleep.

However, many of the defenders did not eat the food delivered in the evening, which led to their actions being discovered by these people at the first moment.

Fortunately, the defenders who had not eaten were only a minority. If there were more of them, they would be in big trouble.

"Quickly put out the beacon fire!"

"Yes!"

After putting out the beacon fire in time, Yuchi Baolin saw Zhou Jinlan leading troops to come to the rescue.

Zhou Jinlan frowned and stepped forward: "What's going on?"

"Just now, there were dozens of people who were not asleep and found us. We have dealt with them."

"Where are the other defenders?"

"Still in a coma."

"killed."

"it is good!"

It was not until dawn that the last corpse on the city wall was successfully disposed of.

After dealing with these defenders, Zhou Jinlan and others immediately changed into their uniforms, stood on the city wall in an orderly manner, and became the new defenders.

Everyone was full of enthusiasm and looking forward to the arrival of Liwang Qilin's reinforcements.

"My Lord, everything is ready."

When everyone changed into the garrison's clothes, Zhou Jinlan came to Su Chen with a smile on her face.

Su Chen nodded. Although the speed was not fast, it was not slow either. At least Li Wang Qilin’s reinforcements had not arrived here yet.

"Have you figured out who is the leader of the reinforcements arranged by Li Wang Qilin?"

“There is no news yet.”

Sun Qiang shook his head.

Su Chen turned his gaze to Lan Gu who was standing beside him, "Mr. Lan Gu, I'll have to rely on you to identify something later."

Lan Gu smiled and nodded.

Now that Chengshanzi has become part of the Tang Dynasty, how far can the next Hengdao River be?

How could Qiqi Zhongxiang, who lived near Hengdao River, escape the fate of being killed by Su Chen?
The sun gradually rose higher.

Some people in the city vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

Especially the people living near the other three city gates, they found that there seemed to be a slight smell of blood in the air.

It’s just that I can’t explain it clearly at the moment.

However, people were still free to enter and exit the city gate, but when entering and exiting the city gate, some people noticed that the appearance of the defenders had changed.

But this is normal. After all, Mu Duochi announced that the Tang army was coming from afar, apparently to attack their Chengshanzi. Isn't it normal for the garrison to change?
Even the relatives of the defenders didn't care too much.

When war comes, soldiers naturally have to stay in the army and serve. Not to mention not going home, it is also common for them to go out of the city to fight.

Soon, it was noon.

In the distance, a cavalry team of more than 10,000 men was rushing towards them quickly.

"My Lord, the reinforcements from Liwang Qilin are here!"

Su Chen, who was resting in the city wall, was awakened by Sun Qiang.

Su Chen rubbed his sleepy eyes and walked to the city wall. From afar, he could see billows of dust rising.

It was like thousands of horses were galloping towards us!

Su Chen picked up the telescope, and the figures of the cavalry in the dust and smoke became clearer and clearer.

Su Chen casually handed the telescope to Lan Gu who was standing beside him and asked, "Who is the leader?"

Lan Gu took the telescope curiously, and put it on his nose like Su Chen did, and was immediately shocked.

How can you see so far and so clearly?

The leader...

Lan Gu'an suppressed the shock in his heart and quickly searched the cavalry team.

A general in armor came into his sight.

"It's Mochi!"

"Your Majesty, the person who led the troops to Chengshanzi this time is Mo Chi."

"Mo Chi? Who is this person?"

"Your Highness, this man is one of Li Wang Qilin's confidants. He has been with Li Wang Qilin for several years. Not only is he a good commander, but his personal fighting skills are also excellent."

Su Chen nodded and took the telescope from Lan Gu's hand. "Is it the man in armor with some white feathers on his helmet?"

"Not bad!"

Lan Gu said in a deep voice: "This person is Mo Chi."

"Li Wang Qilin arranged for him to lead his troops to Chengshanzi. Obviously, he had made sufficient preparations."

Arranging his confidant back is enough to prove that Li Wang Qilin values ​​Cheng Shanzi.

after all.

As long as they could take Chengshanzi, they could go straight to Hengdao River.

There are only three big cities in the territory of the Suomote tribe. One is Chengshanzi, which has been captured, and the other is Hengdaohe where Qiqi Zhongxiang is located.

As for Dadianzi, which is further north, it is close to the Funie tribe. Although there are some soldiers stationed there, the number is small.

Whether it is the Funie tribe or the Sulu tribe, they are all tribes of the Mohe. Even if there are conflicts between them, it is impossible for them to destroy Dadianzi, a communication center for neighboring towns.

"It seems we have to treat this General Mo Chi well."

Su Chen smiled and said to Zhou Jinlan beside him, "According to the plan, close the door and beat the dog."

"Yes!"

Zhou Jinlan smiled and nodded, and immediately arranged for someone to deliver the message to Cheng Chumo and others.

The army led by Mo Chi is composed entirely of cavalry. Although they move as fast as the wind, they have a fatal flaw, which is that they are not suitable for siege warfare.

Especially Su Chen and his men had already made preparations. As long as they brought the ink pool into the city, the war horses under them would lose their original advantage.

How to ravage and abuse them at that time will not be decided by Su Chen, right?

As the army approached, Mo Chi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that everything was normal in Chengshanzi.

After deciding to divide the troops to rescue Chengshanzi, he led 10,000 elite soldiers to Chengshanzi as quickly as possible to prevent the Tang army from capturing Chengshanzi before they arrived at Chengshanzi.

Now it seems that everything is normal!
As long as they successfully entered Chengshanzi and strengthened its defenses, let alone the fact that Su Chen brought 20,000 elite soldiers, even if he brought 50,000 elite soldiers, they would not be able to successfully capture Chengshanzi!

This is the confidence given to him by the ten thousand elite cavalry behind him!

The army slowed down one mile outside the city gate and followed Mo Chi's pace towards the west gate.

"Where is Mu Duochi? Ask him to come to see me immediately!"

"It's General Mo Chi. He is resting now. Please enter the city first."

"rest?"

"It's already this late, how can he sleep?"

Hearing this, Mo Chi immediately got angry.

They traveled day and night, exhausted and out of breath, fearing that the Tang army would get there first and seize Chengshanzi.

But Mu Duochi was actually sleeping soundly?

Mo Chi spurred his horse and rushed directly into the city, and the personal soldiers behind him also hurriedly followed.

Seeing this, passers-by on the street retreated to avoid being affected by the other party.

"Your Majesty, it seems that we are pretending very much alike."

Seeing Mo Chi riding his horse and leading his personal soldiers directly into the city, Zhou Jinlan immediately smiled.

Looking at the cavalrymen following closely behind into the city, Su Chen said quietly, "Tell Jin Yong and the others to be alert and don't let Mo Chi ruin our good deeds."

"clear."

Da da da.

The warhorse stopped outside Mu Duochi's mansion. Mo Chi, with a ferocious look on his face, dismounted and looked at the tightly closed door. Just as he was about to order the soldiers behind him to kick it open, he suddenly smelled a hint of blood.

Very rich!

"General, the smell of blood!"

“Very strong!”

"It came from inside the mansion!"

"Something is not right!"

Mo Chi raised his hand, and the soldiers behind him fell silent.

"Kick open the door! I want to see what's going on!"

Mo Chi waved his hand, and several personal soldiers rushed forward and kicked the tightly closed door open.

In the courtyard of the mansion, there were many corpses piled up in a mess, and a large amount of blood was constantly flowing from these corpses.

"Oops!"

An ominous premonition arose in Mo Chi's heart.

"quick!"

"Send the order!"

"Exit Chengshanzi!"

"Exit Chengshanzi!"

Mo Chi jumped on his horse and turned it around immediately, but at this moment, arrows were continuously shot at them from the streets on both sides.

puff.

Mo Chi howled in pain and fell off the horse.

If he hadn't reacted quickly, the arrow would have hit his heart!

"There's an ambush!"

"Get out!"

"It's not that easy!"

Jin Yong laughed and led thousands of soldiers to attack from both sides, blocking the retreat of Mo Chi and others.

"The prince has ordered that all be killed without mercy!"

"Damn it!"

"It's the Tang army!"

"We've fallen into a trap!"

"The Tang army conquered Chengshanzi?!"

"what happened?"

"..."

For an instant.

Be it Mo Chi and others, or some passers-by on the street, they were all stunned by the sudden change.

The Tang army is coming?

When did they break into Chengshanzi?

Why don’t we know?

"Protect the general!"

"General, hurry up and make sure to join up with the main army!"

Faced with the desperate escort of his personal soldiers, Mo Chi did not waste any words.

The most important thing now is to join up with the army in the rear and remind them not to fall into an ambush.

otherwise.

Not only them, but also the 10,000 elite cavalry behind them will have to die here!
