Chapter 658 Whose reinforcements? (Update 1)
He rushed over quickly, grabbed the man's collar, and asked sternly, "What did you say!?"
The official was very thin and was almost lifted up by him. His clothes were stuck around his neck, making his face turn purple.
He coughed twice with difficulty and spoke intermittently, "Right, right outside..."
Bang!
Tuoba Yu threw him to the ground and strode out the door.
Looking up, I saw many huge kites floating in the sky. At a rough glance, there were at least a dozen of them!
There was one floating closest to him, and he could see the words on it clearly at a glance.
All the blood in his body rushed to his head instantly, and Tuoba Yu's heart almost stopped beating.
——With just one glance, he realized what was happening!
Despite his strict precautions during this period, the news still leaked out! And someone used it to make a story!
It would be fine if only the officials in the city knew about it, but for the sake of their own lives and interests, they are willing to be dogs.
But it’s not possible now!
There are many people in the city. Once they find out, the consequences will be disastrous!
Especially——those soldiers who were originally kept in the dark when defending the city! When they see this kite, they will definitely riot!
At this time, other people also noticed this situation and ran over, all with very ugly expressions on their faces.
"Master, what should we do now?"
"These people are so bold! Sir, let's go over there and catch them one by one!"
"Yes! No one can be spared! Do you really think we have no one left?"
Having said that, they turned around and were about to go out.
Tuoba Yu was so angry that he couldn't help but yell, "Stop right there!"
It has already happened, what's the point in going back now?
"If you go, you might be surrounded and beaten to death before you find the person!"
Tuoba Yu still has the last bit of sanity left.
He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. "Call the troops immediately! Send each of them out in small groups to prevent riots in the city! Those soldiers guarding the city, if they are willing to surrender, they will be spared! If they refuse... they will be killed without mercy!"
At this time, the fastest and most effective way is to fight violence with violence!
One of them showed hesitation, "But, but this will definitely make things worse. Once the news gets out, the people in the court will definitely think we are declaring war, and they will never give up -"
"Then what do you say we should do?"
Tuoba Yu's face turned pale.
"If we don't do this, this yard will be razed to the ground by the mob tonight! Then, you! I! Will all die here!"
The man choked, his face turned red and white, and he lowered his head in panic, "I am ignorant! I didn't think so much..."
Tuoba Yu closed his eyes.
His previous plan was to replace the original with a fake one and conceal the truth. As long as he could capture these border towns and quietly station more troops there to form a base camp, he could save a lot of trouble for subsequent plans.
By that time, they will have sufficient food and sufficient manpower, and even if they were to go to war with the other side, they might still have a chance of winning.
But now—it’s all destroyed!
Their early exposure means the complete failure of this plan!
At the moment of life and death, the most important thing is of course to stay alive!
Another person came out to smooth things over, "Master, you are very thoughtful! Don't they have a saying? If you have green mountains, you will never have to worry about firewood. Let's deal with this matter first, and then find a way to get it back later, it's the same!"
Tuoba Yu's face was gloomy, and his last bit of patience was exhausted.
"Go now!"
"yes!"
Several people acted separately and soon disappeared into the courtyard.
Tuoba Yu turned around and walked in another direction without any hesitation.
If it can be solved, that would be the best. If not... he must make other plans and leave a way out for himself!
"Someone! Go to the east of the city!"
…
Kites are flying everywhere, and the whole city is in turmoil.
Many people rushed towards the prefectural government gate, everyone was very excited, and they ran into the Nanhu soldiers who were preparing to go out to suppress the "rebellion".
They were wearing the armor of Longcheng soldiers, but they were still discovered by sharp-eyed people.
"That man's eyes are blue! He's from South Lake!"
"It seems that what was written on the kite is true. Longcheng has already fallen! Not only did they kill the prefect, they also occupied the government office! They have been making fun of us for such a long time!"
"Fight them!"
The battle breaks out immediately!
The same scene was played out all over the city.
Especially inside and outside the city gates, the soldiers who had been guarding the city gates diligently discovered that they had been betrayed by the officials above a long time ago, and they were extremely angry!
"Damn it! I have guarded this city for half my life, but in the end, I was played around by others! Today, I must chop off a few Nanhu people's heads and kick them around like balls to vent my anger!"
"That's it! Fight them!"
Just when they were about to turn back to settle the score with those people, they unexpectedly found that those people had already come to them on their own initiative - almost in an instant, ordinary-dressed people came from all directions.
They quickly gathered together, and when they stood together, they created a unique sense of oppression.
Although they were dressed differently, their movements were coordinated and their actions were unified.
The leader slowly raised his head, revealing a pair of blue eyes!
"Nanhu people!"
The soldiers defending the city became increasingly angry.
"These... are all of them! It turns out they have already infiltrated every corner of the city!"
No wonder they hadn't noticed anything was wrong before.
The person on the opposite side no longer concealed his feelings and smiled slightly, but the smile was extremely cold.
"Everyone, I don't want to fight with you. Now, as long as you put down your weapons and surrender, we will spare your lives. Otherwise--"
"No, your mother's head!"
A young soldier in armor cursed loudly,
"Get it straight! Whose territory is this? You have no right to run wild here!"
Even if he dies, he will take someone with him!
As soon as he finished speaking, he drew the sword from his waist and rushed forward!
The leader's face changed, "If you don't accept my toast, I'll punish you!"
The two sides quickly engaged in a battle!
The number of people on both sides was not much different, and the fight was hard to determine for a while, with blood splattering everywhere.
At this moment, a burst of rapid and regular footsteps suddenly came from outside the city gate.
Someone looked back and said, "Oh no! The city gate is still open! Could it be that the reinforcements from the Southern Hu people have arrived? "
Hearing this, everyone's faces changed.
The Nanhu man who was in the lead was stabbed on the arm while he was distracted.
He immediately stepped back, covering his wound, and looked at the face of the man at the city gate, but there was a look of hesitation on his face.
Reinforcements?
Master, didn’t you mention this before?
Finally, a group of people rushed into the city gate first!
At present, there was a man wearing armor, holding a flag in one hand, raising it high, and it fluttered in the wind!
The huge character "冯" is particularly vivid!
The soldiers defending the city, who had originally fallen into despair, were suddenly delighted when they saw the armor and flags clearly!
"Our reinforcements have arrived!"
