Chapter 1319 touch the city
"Haha..." Xu Pengju sneered twice and said, "Master Ma said it is right. Once Lord Luo and the Nine Guards clashed, the Nine Guards would not be a chaotic army, but a rebel. Especially now when the White Lotus Sect and Zhang Daoyuan rebelled, once such a thing happened, I, Xu Peng, did not protect the head of Xiang Shang, but can he protect the head of Luo's head of Xiang Shang?"
"Why can't you keep it?" Ma Kun glanced at Xu Pengju with disdain and said, "Mr. Luo is the God of the Ming Dynasty. Can't he deal with the rotten Nine Guards?"
"Haha, there are 100,000 people in the Nine Guards. How many people are there in Lord Luo's hands now? Yu Dayou's three thousand people plus the one thousand people he brought from the capital, only 4,000 people!
Four thousand vs one hundred thousand! Haha...
Does Luo Xin have the courage to do that?
So, don’t worry, Lord Luo doesn’t dare to conflict with the Nine Guards at all. He came to Nanjing to reconcile. As long as he agreed to the military’s request, I, Xu Pengju, will naturally give up my face and put down my posture, but persuade the military.”
"Then... should we send someone again?"
Xu Pengju pondered for a moment and said, "Let's wait for two more days."
Three miles away from Nanjing, a dark cavalry stopped in the wilderness.
"Tait..."
A sound of horse hooves came, and several figures jumped quickly from the moonlight to come to the front.
"Sir, there are about 60,000 people in the Jiuwei Camp."
"Have you alarmed them?" Luo Xin asked in a deep voice.
"No!"
Luo Xin waved his hand, and the scouts returned to the team, and the atmosphere returned to silence.
About two quarters of an hour later, another sound of horse hooves came, and several figures approached quickly. They came to Luo Xin and bowed:
"Sir, there are less than 40,000 riots in Nanjing."
"Have they been alarmed?"
"No! There are chaos troops guarding the four gates, but each city gate is only a dozen people, and it is very scattered. The city gate is closed, and almost all the guards sleep in the door hole."
"How did you get in?"
"We climbed up the city wall, and there was no one on it."
"What about the more than 30,000 people?"
"They all gathered in front of the inner city gate."
"They didn't harass the people, are they?"
"No big harassment, but I also robbed several rice shops and hotels."
"Haha..." Luo Xin's laughter was cold. Yu Dayou, who was standing next to him, felt a stern heart in his heart and whispered: "Sir, it seems that they are just making noises, not trying to rebel..."
Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "I know what you want to say, but since you have the courage to cause chaos, you must be prepared to bear the consequences. There are no major riots, aren't there any small ones? Didn't you snatch a few rice shops and liquor shops?
Don’t think about the conditions I promised them. I can’t agree to them.”
Yu Dayou was depressed. He knew that Luo Xin was talking about the truth, and no one dared to agree to such a condition unless he was crazy. Now he also realized that this noise was definitely a conspiracy. He was a general, and he knew very well those soldiers who were uneducated, simple-minded, and easily impulsive.
What are the Nine Guards doing now?
It's a noise!
Moreover, they attacked Nanjing City and surrounded the inner city. They did not rob the people in the outer city, and did not rush into Nanjing. They only came more than 30,000 people, and most of them remained in the Nine Guards Camp.
Moreover, Nanjing has not agreed to their conditions for so long, and the Nine Guards are still so dedicated. How can this be a military chaos?
It is obvious that this is all someone is controlling behind the scenes, and this is acting. Behind the scenes is a big pit, and a big pit prepared for Luo Xin. If you are not careful, Luo Xin will fall into the big pit.
and……
This scene was very dangerous. Yu Dayou firmly believed that no matter what conspiracy the person behind him had or what means the soldiers who made noise this time should not know that they were just coming to noise.
but……
At the beginning, they could still control their emotions. As time passed, they did not pay a penny to them, and the court did not agree to their request, and the soldiers would become impetuous. By that time, no one could control them.
At this time, Luo Xin had already begun to issue orders.
Luo Xin gathered the generals together, explained his plan in detail, and then asked everyone if they understood. After everyone nodded, Luo Xin stood up and waved his hand and said:
"Set off!"
Nanjing City!
The four gates were closed, and the city gate was quiet, like a sleeping giant beast.
East City Gate.
Dozens of figures ran quickly and silently under the moonlit night, like ghosts under the dark night.
Soon, these dozens of people came to the city wall, listened for a while, one of them waved his hand, and then dozens of them took off the rope from their shoulders, had a steel claw in front of the rope, shaking the rope, and finally threw it out on the city wall with all their might.
"Dingding..."
A slight sound came from the city wall, dozens of people were motionless and listened with their ears. After about five breaths, there was no sound coming from the city wall. Another person just waved his hand, and dozens of them were like monkeys, clutching the rope and climbing towards the city wall quickly.
Under the moonlit night.
Three hundred meters away from the East City Gate, Luo Xin rode on his horse and silently watched the figures of dozens of people disappear on the top of the city.
About a quarter of an hour later, the city gate opened and the suspension bridge was lowered. A man stood in front of the city gate with a torch and shook the torch three times.
"It's done!"
Luo Xin was delighted and urged his horse to walk towards the city gate, but his speed was not fast, so the thousand cavalry did not make a sound of muffled thunder, but there was almost no sound.
Luo Xin and his men walked over the suspension bridge slowly. When they entered the city gate, they saw more than a dozen nine-guard soldiers knocked unconscious on the ground. At this time, they were blocked by the scouts and tied together. Luo Xin left twenty people to guard the city gate, and led everyone to walk along the avenue toward the inner city. Behind him, the twenty people left behind slowly raised the suspension bridge and slowly closed the gate.
The soft sound of horse hooves sounded on the avenue. No matter how soft the sound was, it alarmed the frightened people in the rooms on both sides of the avenue. They all quietly lay down on the cracks of the windows and doors and looked out, and saw the shadows, but they couldn't see whose army it was, and they all sighed in the room with a worried look on their faces.
Luo Xin rode on the horse and walked slowly with a thousand cavalry. He was not in a hurry. According to the spies' reward, the rioters gathered at the four gates of the inner city, drinking the wine they stolen, and they would not consider that the war would suddenly break out. It doesn't matter if they waste some time, as long as they don't make a big noise, they should alarm them.
