Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 180: Watching the Tiger from Across the Mountain
The city of Yancheng was extremely chaotic. Although the curfew had already entered, many people dressed in Jianghu costumes were still walking through the streets. I am afraid that there will be no peace tonight, and the curfew order is destined to lose any meaning tonight.
Maybe it can be seen more clearly from a higher and further place. For example, from the top of the hill where Magistrate Linlang is located, he can clearly see some changes in Yancheng.
The dense crowd of people was constantly moving around, and it could be seen from the lights that these people were all gathering towards the west gate. He soon gave up his newly raised suspicion, turned his head, and said to the dwarf man next to him.
"How is your staff arrangement going?"
The dwarf man named Meng Zhen nodded with a serious expression and said: "Please rest assured, Lord Sheriff, I have already surrounded the outside of Yancheng. No matter what happens, I will not let that kid escape from here. "
Linlang was particularly disgusted with the dwarf's confident way of speaking. He has always been cautious in doing things, and he only suffered some hidden losses when he faced Xing Yezui, the "drinking maniac" in Pengcheng.
"How are your manpower arranged?"
Hearing Linlang ask this question again, the dwarf middle-aged man showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, hesitated and said: "The entire Yancheng has been completely surrounded, but my focus is also on the south and the East. I didn’t expect this guy to lurk out of the west gate.”
Linlang's entire face was tense, and her eyes were fixed on the changes in Yancheng. Although he was very confident in his plan, he was not sure that everything would develop according to his guess. He had to make a judgment here. He had to judge whether the changes in Yancheng were really his own plan, whether Xing Ye was drunk and causing trouble, and he had to predict in which direction Zuo Feng would break out. .
At this moment, in the alley where Ding Hao and others were captured, Xing Yezui looked impatient and said coldly: "You'd better tell me quickly, who is your brother?" Where did he go? I hope you can understand that his every move has fallen into Linlang's trap. If you still want to see Zuo Feng alive, tell me his plan immediately. "
None of the three people with their hands tied upside down said anything. Zuo Hou looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water. He curled his mouth and turned his head to the side. It was obvious that he didn't trust Xing Yezui that much. Qin Xiao had some concerns in his heart, but he also did not speak. Only Ding Hao's eyes flickered, as if he was struggling painfully in his heart.
If his master threatens life and death, or talks about loyalty, filial piety and justice, with his surly character, he won't listen to even a word of it. Xing Yezui also knew him very well. He didn't say a word about those nonsense. Instead, he helped him analyze the fact that he had fallen into a trap, and then completely left the decision-making power to his apprentice.
Ding Hao's eyes flashed and he hesitated for a long time before he uttered the two words "North" with difficulty. Xing Yezui was not surprised at all when he heard these two words. Instead, he showed a trace of ridicule and coldly replied to him with four words: "You are smart."
The words Xing Yezui were not without purpose. Zuo Feng chose to break out from the west gate because he wanted to exceed everyone's expectations. The east gate is his best choice to leave, followed by the south gate. The North Gate and the West Gate are the two places that should be least chosen, but Zuo Feng chose the West Gate.
After the incident was revealed, he also made a plan in advance. Of course, this plan was also discussed in advance by several people. Since Ximen has exceeded everyone's expectations, traveling north is even more incomprehensible.
From Yancheng, you can go to the Xuanwu Empire to the east, to the Fengtian Dynasty and the Ancient Desert Empire to the south, to the west to the direction of Dongjun City and Li City, and to the north is the location of Pengcheng and the Spin Tower.
But there is another point. Leaving Yancheng and heading north is equivalent to going deep into the hinterland of Ye Lin Empire. This is obviously not a wise choice for Zuo Feng who wants to leave Ye Lin.
But this kind of escape plan is really not very smart. Once you understand Zuo Feng's decision to leave from Ximen, it is not difficult to guess his further plans. Xing Yezui was not the only one who had the same idea. Linlang, who was ambushing outside the city, was also thinking the same thing.
He turned back and glanced coldly at the two people behind him, then turned his attention to Yancheng again and said: "Each group only needs to leave two or three people to control the original surveillance range. Pull out the other ambush people and quickly move toward Gather in the west and north directions.”
As soon as this order was uttered, the two golden-armored warriors immediately looked at each other with puzzled faces. One of the golden-armored warriors hesitated for a moment, then bravely said: "Master Sheriff, if that person chooses to follow him, If the position is escaped and we transfer all the manpower, wouldn't it be better to become very passive..."
"Hmph, you know nothing."
Linlang, who was wearing a green shirt, turned around and scolded her coldly, but she didn't have the time to explain any more. The dwarf Meng Zhen, who was standing next to Linlang, rolled his eyes as if he was thinking about someone. Suddenly, a hint of realization appeared in his eyes, and he smiled and said to the two golden-armored warriors.
"Do you know why we are so anxious to catch that boy?"
The golden-armored warrior replied without hesitation: "Because the ten elders, An Xiong and Xing Yezui are also staring at the young man."
Meng Zhen nodded and said, "So this time, when we capture that kid, there is a high possibility that we will encounter those people in Yancheng. Those people who were drawn out are not used to deal with that boy. A wounded boy, no matter how powerful he is, can definitely be captured by two or three warriors of the same level."
Linlang did not speak, which also showed that what Meng Zhen said was exactly what he thought in his heart. After Meng Zhen finished speaking, he secretly glanced at Linlang. Seeing that Linlang's face was slightly relieved, he immediately became confident and said to a masked man beside him: "Pass down the order. According to the order of the county governor, except for two people left at each observation position, everyone else will follow and gather to the west and north of Yancheng."
Orders were issued one after another on the hill outside Yancheng, and the same scene appeared in Yancheng. Xing Yezui and Lu Yun also issued several orders. Groups of warriors gathered into a large team in Yancheng, and then quickly rushed out from the west gate.
On the plain outside Yancheng, Zuo Feng's thin figure almost crawled on the ground and moved forward. He had already sensed the smell of conspiracy in the air, but he gave up his plan to go north just by feeling, but the feeling from the south was not much stronger.
At this moment, a low sound suddenly came from the west gate of Yancheng, more than two miles behind him, and the entire city gate began to slowly open. It was already curfew in Yancheng at this time. The fact that such a situation could occur meant that the other party not only knew that he had slipped out of the west gate, but also seemed to be sending a large number of people to catch him.
What made Zuo Feng secretly relieved was that the countless figures and torches that rushed out of the city gate were neatly divided into two teams. One team went north, and the other team rushed straight to the west, seemingly to surround this large area.
If Zuo Feng had not changed his original plan and went north after leaving Yancheng, he would probably have been surrounded by these people now. Just as Zuo Feng was about to lower his body and leave here as soon as possible, countless torches suddenly lit up at the edge of the plain, and countless figures also appeared in the dense forest.
Zuo Feng's heart tightened when he saw this scene. He finally guessed the reason why he was exposed in Yancheng. These people waiting in the dense forest were obviously arranged here a long time ago. The purpose was to wait for the rabbit to come. After he hurriedly left the city, he immediately fell into their ambush.
Countless torches shone in the dense forest. Although the specific number of people in the dense forest could not be seen, it could be judged that there were many more people than those who came out of Yancheng. These people rushed out of the dense forest and surrounded Yancheng from the edge of the plain. Like the group of people in Yancheng, they were divided into two routes, west and north.
The group of people coming out of Yancheng was a little surprised by the people who appeared in the dense forest, and the team's actions were temporarily suspended for a while. But someone in the team immediately shouted an order, and then the team moved forward again. Both sides were like a fan, with the two wings moving quickly first, and then the middle followed up.
Both groups were rushing forward quickly, and the teams came into contact in less than a quarter of an hour. The first two wings of the team came into contact, and the team behind was still slowly advancing here. These people will search the places they passed carefully.
Suddenly, there was chaos in the west of Yancheng. With the help of the firelight, it can be seen that the two teams there seemed to have friction, and even someone could be seen faintly injured and fell to the ground.
The people standing on the city wall immediately looked over there with a serious expression, and Linlang in the dense forest also had an extremely ugly expression. Xing Yezui on the city wall couldn't help but glanced at An Xiong beside him when he saw the chaos. The team over there was sent by his city lord's mansion. He subconsciously thought that An Xiong was secretly making trouble, but he didn't say a word.
Both parties knew that once friction occurred here, it would not benefit either side, and would only bring better conditions for Zuo Feng's escape. Xing Yezui believed that before finding Zuo Feng's trace, Linlang should also restrain his men and not have friction with their group of people.
In this dark night, the people on both sides were already very nervous, and once a battle occurred, it would immediately affect the entire area. This kind of battle will escalate immediately, and even make these people forget the orders they received when they left the city.
"It seems that we have to go over and take a look, otherwise this battle will get out of control and it will be difficult for us to explain to the empire." Although everyone has guessed that those people were led by Xing Yezui, after all, these people still belong to the Ye Lin Empire, and the final loss is the strength of Dongjun.
After Xing Yezui finished speaking, he glanced back at the Tenth Elder who had been silent all the time. Everyone's eyes were focused on him. After a slight hesitation, the Tenth Elder said: "Call the flying monsters, everyone go over and take a look."
