Chapter 214 Kill!

Murong Ye led the Japanese soldiers to intercept the ninjas. Many of the ninjas were injured. Seeing that he would not allow the ninjas to leave, they immediately became angry, "Mr. Murong, what are you doing?"

Murong Ye scanned the dozens of ninjas and found everyone suspicious.

Finally, he pointed at the mask on the ninja's face and said in a deep voice, "One of you has sneaked into the Kyushu spy. Everyone, take off your masks. We are going to check you one by one!"

Ninjas mostly carry out their missions in the dark. In order to maintain their mystery and to better hide themselves, they will wrap their faces tightly in face masks except for showing their eyes.

At this moment, hearing Murong Ye's unreasonable request, the ninja got angry on the spot, "Baka! Our ninja identities are top secret, how can you reveal your true identity with just one sentence? In my opinion, you might be a spy from Kyushu, sneaking into our Japanese camp, trying to catch us all in one fell swoop!"

As soon as this was said, the other ninjas echoed, "That's right! This person has ulterior motives, and everyone must not be fooled!"

"We will never take off our veils! We will never allow people from Jiuzhou to dictate to us in Japan!"

Seeing that these ninjas were getting excited, Murong Ye reached out and pulled out a samurai sword from the waist of the ninja who was shouting the most fiercely in front of him, and stabbed it into the opponent's abdomen.

The ninja was already injured and couldn't dodge in time, so he was killed by the sword!

The moment the ninja fell to the ground, the whole world seemed to be silent, and everyone was as quiet as a chicken.

No one expected that Murong Ye would dare to kill the ninja in front of so many Japanese soldiers. They looked at the ninja lying in a pool of blood, and unconsciously took two steps back, keeping a distance from Murong Ye.

Only Kusai Kawana's confidant stared at Murong Ye with a look of reproach on his face, "Mr. Murong, what are you doing? You killed a ninja, how can I explain to Lord Kusai?"

The night wind was chilly, Murong Ye slightly side-glanced and glanced at Shui Taijiro, a close confidant of Kusaichuan Yifu.

Hisaikawa Kazuo placed this person next to him, saying that he was there to assist him, but in fact he was just monitoring his every move.

Murong Ye has never been the type to let others push him around. These ninjas are not very capable, but they have bad tempers. Today he wants to establish his authority, kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, and destroy the prestige of these guys!

"You don't need to explain what I did. I will naturally explain the situation to my father!"

After saying this, Murong Ye once again cast his gaze towards the silent ninja, pointed at the corpse on the ground and said word by word, "Are you going to take off your face masks now? If you don't want to end up like him, you'd better think it over before answering me!"

All the ninjas looked at each other and finally succumbed to his tyranny.

One by one, they removed the masks from their faces.

When Shuiping Taijiro saw this, he suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart, "Mr. Murong, are you satisfied now?"

Murong Ye looked at the angry expression on his face and curled his lips slightly, "Taijiro, we are not only working for my father, but also to capture the city of Jiuzhou for the king! If you have been so indecisive, the spies in Jiuzhou would have escaped long ago!"

After hearing what he said, Shuiping Taijiro hesitated for a moment and then shut up.

Seeing that no one challenged him, Murong Ye shouted, "After you take off your veils, look at each other and the people around you. If there is anyone suspicious, arrest them immediately! When you catch the spy, I will definitely say a few good words for you in front of my father! Then you will have a bright future!"

After saying that, he turned to Shuiping Taijiro and said, "Translate my words to them!"

Shuiping Taijiro repeated his words in Japanese, and added at the end, "Everyone, please cooperate well. He is now the son-in-law of Lord Jiucai. Lord Jiucai still needs him to break into the Kyushu Palace. We should not offend him for the time being. When Lord Jiucai successfully takes Kyushu, his life will definitely be at your disposal!"

Although the ninjas had complaints in their hearts, as members of the Iga clan, they were all loyal to Kusagawa Kazuo. Since Murong Ye still had value to Kusagawa Kazuo, they would tolerate him for a while longer.

So, they followed Murong Ye's instructions and checked and confirmed the identities of their companions.

After all the ninjas checked each other, Shuichi Taijiro confirmed several times before saying to Murong Ye, "Mr. Murong, we have checked, and there are no spies who have infiltrated Kyushu among them!"

Murong Ye frowned coldly, his eyes scanning between the ninjas here, "Have they watched carefully? If anyone dares to protect the traitor, I will never let him go!"

When Shuiping Taijiro saw that Murong Ye actually suspected that the ninja was sheltering a Kyushu spy, he directly replied, "Mr. Murong, we Japanese are very united and will not split up like you. If we find a spy, we will definitely kill him on the spot and will not allow the spy to have a chance to sneak into the Japanese camp again!"

Murong Ye was influenced by his words.

But now is not the time to worry about such things.

Since Xue Youli and Chu Xinyue are not among the ninjas, they will definitely go to the city gate of Ningcheng.

As long as Ningcheng opens the gates for them, the Japanese army can take the opportunity to attack the city.

Of course, it doesn’t matter even if Ningcheng doesn’t open the city gates for them.

A Yan, whom he placed next to Xue Youli, has already sneaked into Ningcheng.

He sent a message to A Yan, asking her to find a way to open the city gate tonight.

Thinking of this, Murong Ye could not wait to say to Shuiping Taijiro, "I will take people to chase the escaped spies first, you go back and inform my father to ask him to send more troops to the city gate to support me! If everything goes well, we can attack Ningcheng tonight!"

Seeing his determined look, Shuiping Taijiro nodded quickly, "Okay! If you can break into Ningcheng tonight, His Excellency Jiucai will definitely be very happy!"

Murong Ye didn't care about how Kucaichuan Yifu felt, he just wanted to use these Japanese soldiers to take back everything he had lost!

…

On the other side, Xue Youli and Chu Xinyue slid down the city wall along the rope.

At this time, they returned to the foot of the city wall and climbed up the wall again using the rope.

On the city wall, Murong Nan had been waiting for them. Only when he saw them standing in front of him unharmed did he feel relieved.

"Ayue, I'm so glad you're okay!"

Chu Xinyue took off the veil from her face and walked up to him. "We deliberately misled Murong Ye, making him think that we would enter through the city gate. He must be chasing us with the Japanese troops now. Are the archers in place?"

Murong Nan nodded, "The archers are ready! Just waiting to deal a fatal blow to the Japanese army!"

Moreover, they not only prepared bows and arrows, but also kerosene and poison. Before shooting, they dipped the arrows in kerosene and poisoned them. They did everything they could to ensure that these Japanese people would never return!

Several torches were lit on the city wall. Chu Xinyue looked at his eyes reflecting the firelight and curled her lips. "Murong Nan, why do I feel that you have grown up a lot since coming to the border? Not only has your personality become more stable, but you also have the demeanor of a great general!"

Murong Nan turned around and asked Qingfeng to pass the two thick cloaks that he had prepared in advance to her and Xue Youli. "You are the commander-in-chief, and I, a deputy commander, will grow up by following you. The border is not like the capital. It is freezing cold here at night. Hurry up and put on your clothes and warm yourself by the fire!"

They didn't feel cold when they fought with the Kyushu ninjas before.

But after hearing what Murong Nan said, Xue Youli couldn't help but rub his hands and exhale, "My hands are almost numb from the cold!"

Chu Xinyue took the cloak from Qingfeng and handed one of them to Xue Youli, "Come on, put on your cloak first!"

The cloak was thick and when I wrapped it around myself, the cold wind was immediately blocked out and my hands and feet gradually became warm.

Seeing that their noses were red from the cold, Murong Nan quickly said to them, "It's windy on the wall, go back and rest quickly, I'll guard here!"

"That won't work. We are husband and wife. I have to stand by you!"

Chu Xinyue said, turning to look at Xue Youli beside her, "Ali, you go back first. I can't let you get frozen to death. Otherwise, Murong Che will be heartbroken after we return to Beijing."

Xue Youli listened to her teasing and pouted, "I won't leave. I'm your best friend, and I want to stick with you!"

Anyway, she will be the light bulb tonight.

Chu Xinyue did not refuse anymore, "Okay! Then let's all stay and beat Murong Ye to death tonight!"

Not long after, a figure quickly climbed up the city wall along the stairs and walked towards them.

"Princess, Ah Yan really sneaked under the city gate and tried to open it, but I found him in time and tied him up!"

Before Wang Dali came close, he reported the situation to Chu Xinyue with excitement.

Chu Xinyue looked at his sparkling eyes and praised, "You did a great job. Next we will just wait for Murong Ye to come with the Japanese army to die!"

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a rustling sound outside the city wall.

Xue Youli looked towards the large group of soldiers and horses not far away, and was eager to try. "Fifth brother, quickly get the archers ready. When the Japanese army enters the shooting range, shoot immediately!"

"good!"

Murong Nan took Qingfeng to convey the order.

Wang Dali looked at their backs as they walked away and couldn't help but said, "I'm going too!"

Having said this, he hurriedly trotted after him.

On the city wall, Xue Youli watched the large group of black troops approaching little by little, and suddenly thought of something, "Captain, have you arranged a group of experts outside the city to snipe Murong Ye?"

"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from you!"

Chu Xinyue blinked at her and said with a smile, "I borrowed these experts from the emperor! If you weren't so generous, how could the emperor be willing to lend me his Dragon Shadow Guards?"

Xue Youli smiled and replied, "The emperor borrowed the Dragon Shadow Guard mainly because he believes in your strength!"

"I hope we can successfully keep Murong Ye's life here tonight!"

Xue Youli raised his chin, his tone determined, "Anyway, we have two plans. Even if we can't kill him, we will make him live a life worse than death!"

…

Outside the city gate, the first batch of Japanese troops led by Murong Ye arrived and found that the city gate of Ningcheng was tightly closed, with no sign of being opened.

It was quiet all around, with only the sound of wind in my ears in the darkness.

Murong Ye stood at the front of the team, squinting his eyes and looking up at the city wall.

He looked around and silently counted the number of guards in his mind. There were only twenty-eight people.

There was a guard standing at regular intervals on the city wall, with a burning torch in front of him.

Everything seems normal, the reinforcements probably haven't arrived yet!

So, Xue Youli and Chu Xinyue didn’t have time to enter the city?

However, it doesn't matter even if they get in, because Ah Yan is here and she will find a way to open the city gate for him.

The Japanese soldiers already had some complaints about him. If he returned empty-handed tonight, they would definitely report him to Hisaikawa Kazuo!

So, tonight he can only succeed and not fail!

Murong Ye thought of this, pointed at the soldiers standing next to him, and said in a deep voice, "Go check the situation!"

The Japanese soldiers were also afraid, but there was nothing they could do but charge forward.

When they reached the foot of the city wall and circled back and forth, seeing that no one had discovered them, they sent a soldier back to report to Murong Ye.

"Nothing unusual was found!"

At this moment, a signal flare was sent from inside the city wall.

This flare was given to Ah Yan by him. It looked like a meteor, shooting into the air and disappearing in a flash.

Only the two of them knew the signal. Now that A-Yan had fired the signal flare, it meant that she had succeeded and opened the city gate!

God is really helping me!

Murong Ye thought of this and couldn't help but reveal a smug smile in his eyes, "Everyone listen up, abandon your horses and walk into the city immediately!"

Standing behind him, Ping Taijiro saw that the city gate was tightly closed and began to doubt his decision, "Murong Jun, the city gate of Ningcheng is so tightly closed. If we rush in rashly, we will be wiped out if we are discovered!"

Murong Ye glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, I have someone inside Ningcheng! If we go over now, she will help us open the city gate and catch the Ningcheng garrison off guard!"

"But……"

Shuiping Taijiro wanted to advise him to be more cautious, but Murong Ye interrupted him impatiently, "Speed ​​is the key to success! The most important thing in a war is to seize the initiative! If everyone is as cautious as you, when will we be able to conquer Kyushu?"

Shuiping Taijiro was speechless and could only helplessly reply, "Mr. Jiucai has given you full authority to take charge of tonight's operations. You make the arrangements and we will follow your orders!"

Murong Ye immediately raised the long sword in his hand and said to the people behind him, "Pass on my order, all troops attack!"

So, under his leadership, the Japanese soldiers rushed towards the city gate of Ningcheng.

In the shadows of the dark city wall, Xue Youli was silently calculating the distance between the Japanese soldiers and the city wall, counting down in a low voice, "...three! Two! One!"

Just as she finished counting down the last number, Chu Xinyue suddenly stood up and shouted, "Release!"

Her voice was sonorous, powerful and full of vigor, which made the Ningcheng garrison blood boil.

"Kill! Kill all these Japanese barbarians!"

Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The sharp arrow flew out at lightning speed and accurately hit the group of sneaky Japanese soldiers under the city wall.

The Japanese soldiers were caught off guard and fell to the ground one after another.

Some of the arrows were on fire, and after hitting the target, they burned the clothes of the Japanese soldiers.

"ah!"

High-pitched screams of horror and despair came one after another.

In the light of the fire, Shuiping Taijiro saw that the lips of several soldiers who were shot by arrows turned purple, and he was terrified, "Everyone be careful! The arrows are poisonous!"

The Japanese soldiers listened to their companions' screams, then looked at the people beside them who had been shot and fallen to the ground, and they were immediately in great confusion!
