Chapter 85 Overcoming the City Wall
The team was stationed and assembled 500 meters away from Yanchuan County.

The sergeants were in high spirits and did not feel sleepy at all. This was their first siege battle with the Kitchen King, which was of great significance. After this battle, many of them would be promoted to become heavenly soldiers.

There is no fear of war or death in their hearts. Such a well-trained team with such a strong spiritual will will shine so brightly.

The main city of Yanchuan County was lit with a brazier, emitting light. The reputation he had accumulated in the past few days was exchanged by Liu Zhenhua for fifty pairs of light armor, which were given to those with the best physical fitness and the best performance among the soldiers. Man, he only has 590 reputation left.

The team stared at Yanchuan County from a distance, but no one was seen walking around and patrolling under the fire. This kind of city wall patrol was necessary because the city wall was long and there was a shortage of manpower.

And right now it was obvious that no one was patrolling up there.

The soldiers guarding the city were probably dozing off somewhere. Maybe there was someone lying next to the city wall at this moment.

At the base of the city wall, Wang Long looked upward and saw no movement.

The city wall of this county town is not high and is undulating. You can climb it by yourself just by holding on with your hands.

"Wait until I give you the signal and go up carefully."

Wang Long made a sign, it would be best if no one patrolled, they could easily get in.

He took the lead and took the lead in climbing towards the city wall. The training these days was very effective. Coupled with the meal supplements, Wang Long felt much stronger than when he was in Yanchuan County in the past. He did not feel uncomfortable climbing now. Hard work.

Not long after, Wang Long came to the bottom of the wall battlements. He only needed to stick his head out to observe the situation on the city wall. Seeing that there was no one in front of him, Wang Long continued to go up and poked his head between the two battlements. A few meters away, there was a man leaning on the city wall, soundly sleeping, and even the occasional humming sound could be heard.

Anyone who has slept in this state knows that usually when you fall into deep sleep, you will groan, accompanied by snoring sounds that sound like suffocation from time to time.

Wang Long looked into the distance and saw a vague figure 30 meters away, leaning against the city wall.

There are not many guards, everyone is sleeping, and there are about 40 meters between each two guards.

There is no one patrolling, and there will probably be no shifts in the middle of the night. This means that even if these two guards are eliminated, no one will find out. Maybe no one will find out until tomorrow morning, but at that time It's already too late. They will attack the city at dawn tomorrow morning. They will open the city gate wide and the task will be considered completed.

The moon emerged from behind the clouds. Originally it was still invisible, but now the visibility has been further improved. Wang Long made a two sign to the bottom, and then waved. The brothers understood, and the two began to climb up. .

After arriving at the city wall, they saw another guard's position. Wang Long wiped his neck, and the latter nodded, climbed over, and walked towards the other guard with his waist bent.

There were also people following the figure below.

Wang Long signaled the last brother to keep an eye on him. He moved his steps and came to the guard ten meters away. He took out the hatchet wrapped around his waist, wrapped his arms around the man's head bit by bit, and covered his mouth. Then with a direct stroke, the man's body twitched and blood spurted out.

Wang Long carefully lowered the body towards the city wall.

Someone immediately set up a ladder to catch him, then he took off his clothes and put them on, climbed upwards, and when he reached the battlements, he followed the way of the man before and slept on the battlements.

The other side is also repeating the same action.

Wang Long waved, and people kept climbing up the 40-meter distance between the two fake guards, and then climbed over the wall to the other side.Hundreds of people climbed over the city wall in three back and forth directions. The nearest guard was also 40 meters away to their left and right. It could be seen through the firelight, but unfortunately all the guards had their heads buried.

Two fake guards were lying on the ground wearing clothes splattered with blood, carefully observing both sides.

They will stay here until dawn when the general attack will be launched.

They didn't think about why the Kitchen King didn't take advantage of the situation and directly attack with his entire army.

Entering the city, there are rows of houses more than ten meters away. Most of them are simple houses, similar to thatched houses. There are very few clean wooden houses, let alone brick houses.

Most of the ancient county towns were like this. Even the edges of the imperial city were dirty and messy. When it rained, muddy water and feces were everywhere. This is why you have to be careful about the plague after the rain. There are no TV shows where the streets are clean and orderly. appearance.

There was no guard or place to station behind the city gate, so they rushed towards the main gate.

They were taking action, and so was Ma Maocai. He was working hard, and he was now more than 800 miles away from the capital. Even if he traveled [-] miles a day, it would take six days. He was anxious, because during the day he knew the Stove King's ability to attract people. , almost a hundred people join the Kitchen King's team every day.

It used to take six days, and it would take one day to go to Beijing and submit a memorial. If the Holy Emperor believed him, he could send troops to capture the Stove King, and it would take about ten days for the soldiers to arrive.

Every day that passes, the difficulty of forcibly capturing the Kitchen King becomes higher.

"But fortunately, no matter how many people the Kitchen King attracts, there are only two hundred elites with Mo Dao." Ma Mao then noticed that those under the Kitchen King holding Mo Dao should be heavenly soldiers, and there were only about 20 of them wearing armor. One person wears heavy armor.

The rest of the people attracted were militiamen. Although their training was neat, they were still vulnerable to the elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and would only increase the number of killings.

"I just hope that Your Majesty can believe me," Ma Mao thought and felt more worried.

"There is a talented person in northern Shaanxi. With a wave of his hand, hundreds of white porridge, mustard and eggs appeared. The porridge was fragrant. The people were shocked. I hope your majesty will immediately send troops to capture the Kitchen King and bring him back to the court." '

Ma Maocai felt a little unbelievable when he tasted these words. Unless he saw it with his own eyes, who would believe such words, not only the Holy Emperor but also the ministers of the DPRK.

"Ugh."

Ma Maocai sighed. Officials in the DPRK changed frequently, and anyone could see that the current emperor was very suspicious. If he wrote these words in the memorial, what would the emperor's reaction be when he saw it?

He shook his head. As ministers, what they have to do is to be loyal. Whether they believe it or not is a matter for the Holy One. They only need to report the news truthfully and do their duty as a minister.

 Regarding the fact that the protagonist was discovered so early, the reason is: Ma Maocai's patrol in northern Shaanxi is a historical allusion. The protagonist was quite active, so it should be normal to be discovered, so this plot was arranged.

  Yang He's recruitment is also true history.
