Chapter 97: Attacking Lin'an (Part 2)!



"Nothing, Dong is also wrong, he cares too much about gains and losses."

Dong Songchen also apologized and bowed to express his apology... Only then did Xiaolongnu let go of her anger, knocked on the table, and signaled to continue the meeting.

But only Dong Songchen made a suggestion, and the others were at a loss, so they all fell into silence.

Di Fan ignored everyone's thoughts and carefully reviewed the intelligence. Based on the enlarged sand table of Lin'an City, he checked the enemy's defenses...

[This Jia Sidao is quite something. His ground defense is watertight. Apart from a brute force attack, there's absolutely no chance of attack...]

[The sky is impossible. The city walls are covered with bronze mirrors and torches. Even a nighttime air raid would be discovered in time. Even if a master of the innate realm tried to sneak through the city gates, they would be awakened, leading to a fierce battle.] (PS: Shining a torch into the bronze mirror creates a scattered light similar to a flashlight, expanding the range of the light...)

[We can't attack from the sky or underground, so what about the water? ]

Di Fan's gaze drifted towards the waterway on the map! Lin'an City's sewers connected directly to the sea! The port itself wasn't heavily fortified, with only an iron fence serving as a barrier.

Perhaps, this iron fence can stop ordinary people, or even acquired masters... But if you want to stop the top acquired masters, you are dreaming!

Even if a congenital master takes action personally, he can break the fence silently and easily lead the army into the city through the waterway!

"I have an idea!"

Emperor Xin shouted, his joy was beyond words!

"Big Brother, do you mean to take the waterway?"

Di Fan blinked his eyes. Is it possible that his junior sister and he have such a tacit understanding now?

[Junior Sister, could it be the roundworm in my stomach?]

However, everyone had already gathered around, so it was not appropriate to tease the little junior sister now. Di Fan pointed directly at the waterway fence and introduced it to everyone: "The leader is right. The opportunity to easily break through Lin'an City lies in the waterway!"

"Everyone, please look..."

"First, the waterway connects to the entire underground pipeline of Lin'an. Its underground waterways are well-connected and can easily reach all parts of Lin'an. As long as we occupy the waterway, we can quickly send troops into the city, coordinate the internal and external forces, and break through the city!"

"Secondly, Jia Sidao isn't a military man, and he's never actually commanded a war. So, the defenses at the waterway are just a couple of kittens... and they're mostly just patrolling. We're completely relying on the iron fences. But can these iron fences, as thick as an arm, really withstand our attacks?"

Zhong Mingliang smiled confidently: "It's just one palm!"

"If I let Dong take action, I am confident that I can corrode its fence without making any noise!"

Dong Songchen also said sinisterly that all Xiantian techniques have their own special effects. For example, Xiantian Gong is used to enhance the power of the technique; the Nine Yin Manual, originating from Taoism, naturally has Taoist characteristics, ensuring that its energy is continuous; Beiming Shengong can absorb people's true energy; Xiao Wuxiang Gong is all-encompassing...

The special effects of the Sunflower Manual are corrosion and penetration! This is why most people who have learned the Sunflower Manual either use needles and thread as weapons or use light and sharp weapons like long swords!

From paper to iron blocks, as long as Dong Songchen wants, he can easily corrode them without alarming anyone!

"Mr. Di is indeed very resourceful. He attacked the city through the waterways, coordinating the internal and external forces. This method is indeed a good one!"

Yue Shao also greatly praised Di Fan's idea, and everyone agreed. Dong Songchen and Zhong Mingliang even took the initiative to ask Xiaolongnu to lead the team into the city to cooperate with the troops outside!

Seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, Xiaolongnu immediately stood up, put her hand on the sword at her waist, and gave the order!

"Zhong Mingliang, Dong Songchen!"

"I will be here!"

"I order you to lead 3,000 Wulin soldiers into the city through the fence at midnight tomorrow night and ambush around the city gates... The next morning, when the siege horns sound, immediately charge out and seize the city gates to secure passage for my army!"

"I obey your orders!"

The two men retreated, already thinking about how to sneak into the city quietly.

As for why they chose to attack during the day instead of at night... What a joke! They were the attackers, and Jia Sidao had made ample preparations for a night attack! The towers were even filled with torches and fuel!

If they rashly launch an attack at night, it will be the attackers who suffer heavy casualties!

Therefore, after entering the Lin'an waterway, hide in the sewers, and then launch an attack to seize the city gate after dawn. This is the best route of attack!

"The rest of you, lead the army and join me. Gather at 1:00 AM. Blow the horn at 1:00 PM and attack Lin'an!"

"I obey your command!"

His resolute roar resounded throughout the entire camp!

.................

The next day, at midnight, a curfew was imposed in Lin'an City... Aside from the occasional clatter of military boots hitting the ground, even the barking of dogs was almost silent, as if the city had fallen asleep...

In the harbor waterway, Zhong Mingliang and Dong Songchen led three thousand Wulin soldiers, dressed in fish suits and holding straw in their mouths, and they dived from the bottom of the water a thousand meters away to the fence... Their movements were graceful and careful, and apart from the straw sticking up from the surface, there was basically no ripple at all...

After all, at night, even with the light of a fire, you might not be able to see the thin thatch, right?

Zhong Mingliang gestured to Dong Songchen underwater, indicating that he had touched the fence...

Dong Songchen understood, and with a light movement of his feet, he swam to Zhong Mingliang's side and also felt where the fence was...

He carefully placed his hand on the fence, exerting a slight force... Sunflower Qi transformed into strands, wrapping around the fence his palm touched like a saw, slowly cutting into it, gradually corroding it with the special effects of the Qi...

It took a full half a minute to corrode the iron rod at one end!

Dong Songchen gestured towards Zhong Mingliang, then dived again and struck the other end of the iron rod...

Dong Songchen repeated the same action eight times, corroding four iron bars before he finally opened a large enough passage in the fence for people to enter and exit freely without bumping into or alerting the patrol officers above...

Zhong Mingliang entered first, and everyone followed closely behind, sneaking in carefully. Dong Songchen stayed behind, holding the fence with his innate true energy to ensure that it did not move, reducing the chance of being discovered to an extremely low level!

After everyone entered the city, Dong Songchen followed closely behind, leading everyone to sneak into the city gate and quietly wait for dawn...

Time passed by like sand... Soon, it was the early morning of the third day. The Wulin Army gathered early at the foot of the city, like a cheetah hunting, quietly waiting for the opportunity to attack!

Murderous intent slowly accumulated within his army...
