Journey to the West begins with a full-level Tang monk

Chapter 1474 Zhao Erhu's Mission
"Third Prince, it seems wrong!"

Lin Kuohai, commander of the Death Battalion beside the third prince, was also watching the situation in Yingzhou City, and said softly.

"This situation is abnormal. It stands to reason that the city gate shouldn't be open. Could there be an ambush?"

Lin Kuohai's worry was not unreasonable. If he hadn't sensed that it was too unusual, he would never have said such words to the third prince.

After all, every word he said might affect the decision of the third prince. Once he said something wrong, it would be immeasurable how much impact it would have on the overall situation.

The third prince just nodded slightly when he heard the words, and frowned slightly as he looked at the four open city gates.

It was only a matter of breath, the third prince casually called out the names of the two Qingchuan camp warriors, and then pointed at the city gate: "Be careful when entering the city to spy on the military situation!"

"Yes, Your Highness the Third Prince!"

The two brothers from the Qingchuan Camp got excited, they came out in response, pulled out the steel knives stuck in their waists, and rode their horses one after the other towards the city gate.

The third prince called out the names of the two Qingchuanying brothers again, and ordered them to go directly to Yingzhou Fucheng from the city wall.

Two groups of four Qingchuanying brothers acted according to the orders of the third prince, while the third prince sat on the horse and watched the situation in the city.

The two people who went straight to the city gate entered the city one after the other, and they followed each other and climbed up the city wall.

During this process, there was no change in the defenders on the city wall, but everyone turned their attention to that side.

In the eyes of the third prince, this is definitely a very normal behavior.

And the two warriors of the Qingchuan Camp who climbed up from the city wall were not slow. They also took precautions carefully and prepared to cover alternately.

However, just like in the city, the defenders on the city did not take any action, no one shot arrows, no one threw stones down, in short, no defensive measures were taken.

Until the two men climbed up the city wall to meet the two men who came up from the city, the sparse defenders did not move at all, and no one even responded to them.

The four of them didn't pay attention to this, they gathered together, looked down at the city, everything was normal wherever they looked.

I didn't see any soldiers and horses ambushing in the nearby streets and alleys.

There are no crossbowmen on some taller buildings.

Looking into the distance along the main street, there is nothing suspicious about the traveling merchants on the street.

The four left three of them, and one of them went down and down the city from the horse road, and returned to the side of the third prince outside the city.

"Your Highness, the Third Prince, I didn't find anything suspicious." The man replied in a low voice.

The third prince nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the people from the Qingchuan camp opened a distance one by one and entered the city.

The soldiers of the Qingchuan Battalion explored the distance along the street, and some people stopped at intervals to guard their surroundings.

Everything is calm.

After watching for a while, the third prince waved his hand again and led the rest into the city as well.

However, the Death Battalion led by Lin Kuohai, guarding around the Third Prince, was still on guard, ready to fight the enemy at any time.

The team gradually penetrated into the city, and everything was normal.

This process sounds simple, but it is actually very long.

In a prefectural city, the length of the main street is more than ten miles, and the entire route is carefully guarded by the team.

After a long time, the team finally passed the main street safely and arrived near the north gate.

However, nothing happened here.

This made the third prince very puzzled. It seemed that everything was normal.

However, there is an obvious abnormality in this normality.

Because in addition to the people in the city showing some curiosity about their team, some came to watch, and some couldn't help but take a few more glances.

From the beginning to the end, none of the Fucheng officials showed up.

Not only did the military personnel not show up, even the magistrate did not see their shadow.

It stands to reason that when the third prince returns to the imperial court and passes through Yingzhou City, the local officials will definitely come to meet him.

If these local officials did not dare to come because of the relationship between the First Prince and the Second Prince, it would also be unreasonable.

Because it is enough to prove that the other party is the eldest prince or the second prince. Once this relationship is established, the other party will definitely not let him go so lightly when the third prince enters the city.

However, as for what's wrong with it, the Third Prince still couldn't figure it out for a while.

Due to time constraints, it is impossible for him to stay here too long to find out.

The gate of the north gate of Yingzhou was always wide open. When the team came here, there was still no movement, and there was no sign of closing.

The defenders on the top of the city were also like normal people, lazily leaning against the city wall, as if they had nothing to do with them.

As long as he walked out from this north gate, his team could safely pass through Yingzhou City and continue to the capital.

However, the third prince did not leave the city right away. He pondered for a while, and then said to Zhao Erhu beside him: "Zhao Erhu, you bring a hundred Qingchuanying brothers to stay, and there is only one task. Under the banner of my commander, completely control the entire city." Yingzhou City, there is no other request this time, you play by ear, everything is up to you. If there is any situation, please report to the commander at any time!"

A team of one hundred, and Zhao Erhu is the captain of his team.

After getting the order from the third prince, Zhao Erhu didn't say anything, but only replied with two words: "Follow the order!"

"set off!"

The third prince didn't say any more, shouted loudly, and took the lead to pat his horse out of the city gate and head north.

The rest of the people did not stay for a moment, they followed closely behind the third prince, filed out of the city, and soon disappeared into the wilderness.

As soon as the third prince left with the team, only Zhao Erhu and his hundred Qingchuanying brothers were left in Yingzhou City.

This time, Zhao Erhu was in trouble. He was originally a banker, but by chance, he was caught and sent to the front line.

Just happened to be at Longhuguan, and became a soldier under the command of the third prince.

Later, by chance, I met Tang Seng. Because of some relationship with each other, he and his brother Zhao Dahu were recruited into the Qingchuan camp, where they cut bones and washed marrow, and learned Tang's Bajue Dao, so they have today's skills.

His elder brother, Zhao Dahu, became the county magistrate of Dalu County because he took the city of Dalu County alone.

I was still very proud at that time, the Zhao family finally had a day of success, and someone finally became a high official like the county magistrate.

But how long has it been?

The third prince actually sent himself and a hundred brothers to control the entire Yingzhou city.

Yingzhou city is a state city, and it is one level higher than the county seat. Can I do it myself?
Zhao Erhu now has the feeling that a pig is biting a hedgehog, and he has nowhere to say anything.

Because he is a farmer, he has never even been to the city of Yingzhou, and all he does is farming for a living, so how would he know what to do to control the city of Yingzhou?
