C173 Developments (ibid.)
"Go!" "Giddy ?" Following the proscription of people entering and exiting the city's east gate, and after the entire road was cleared, Cheng Zhipeng led all the light cavalry troops he could muster to quickly pass through the east gate. After exiting the city, he urged his horse to gallop forward.
The mounted soldiers moved quickly and in a neat formation. It was obvious that these soldiers had gone through a lot of training. The cavalry marching, charging, retreating, and going in a roundabout way were all very meticulous. Not a random group of people who knew how to ride a horse could complete the movements of these cavalry soldiers when they gathered together.
The fast and slow speed of the cavalry, the angle of turning and turning, the scale of retreating, as well as the coordination and reaction of charging, were all things that required the training of the entire Cavalry to have.
If this happened on the battlefield, at least this entire army of the Cavalry would be annihilated, and at most, it would just be a battle that would lead to a complete defeat. Therefore, the elite cavalry army would need several years of training and teamwork to be able to achieve the two words, 'elite'. This was one of the reasons why 'training the cavalry was equivalent to burning money'.
But an excellent elite cavalry team, whether in a frontal confrontation or in a roundabout sneak attack, could play a crucial role, and could even affect the outcome of a big battle. Furthermore, it could lead to a war.
The cavalry extended many different types of cavalry, such as heavy cavalry, Bow Cavalry s, light cavalry, and so on. This way, in the local war, the refined cavalry could be arranged into a suitable battlefield.
The reason why Cheng Zhipeng's Cavalry had undergone relevant training was because they could see some clues from the team's speed and pace. Although it was far from the level that Cheng Zhipeng had requested, it was still a good performance for the average city guard.
Under Cheng Zhipeng's lead, the light cavalry team gradually increased their speed, like a huge arrow, they headed towards the south side of the city.

"I heard that there was a large scale gang fight at the southern market. What happened?" The city guard general asked with a stunned expression. However, one could clearly see the anger and puzzlement on his face.
"Reporting to Lord Commander, the two sides fighting are investigating that there are two forces in the Fengyang City, the two sides fought over territory because of this." A person dressed as a general answered.
"Then why is it not suppressed yet? There are many big families and powers in the south of the city, and they're causing trouble for me. Don't tell me they want my position to be left unprotected? " The commander sat upright and asked angrily.
If this matter were to spread further, even if some noble or high official were hurt, the position of the City Guard Army Commander would no longer be preserved.
"Lord Commander, all the city guards have already come to the south side of the city to assist. However, due to the heavy traffic jam, our people are simply unable to pass through!" It was not that he was not anxious, but he was anxious like an ant on a hot pan. However, he could not quench his thirst even if he was too far away, and now that the City Guards had arrived at the scene, it was useless no matter how anxious they were.
"Can't get through? If you don't go and find a solution for me, then what's the use of having all of you! " The commander's face was filled with rage. He almost smashed the entire table to pieces as he screamed at the top of his lungs.
"Milord, don't worry. Just now, someone came to report that the east side of the city has led a group of light cavalry to the south side of the city. I also heard that the county governor, Wu Daode, is also present at the southern side of the market. The general then consoled the commander.
"Hmm, this Cheng Zhipeng has some skill, that's more like it. There's no way to go inside the city, let's go outside the city! Very good! You must bring people to the south side of the city quickly so that the relevant personnel of the great families and powers are not affected. If there are any forces or family members that are in danger, you can kill them on the spot! " When the commander heard that there were troops that could arrive at the scene quickly, he immediately felt much more confident.
"Understood!" After the contestant received his orders, he turned around and left.

Did Cheng Zhipeng bring someone to the south side of the city? The answer was clearly no!
A few of the officers in charge of the south side of the city were currently upstairs, waiting anxiously for Cheng Zhipeng's light cavalry army to intervene in the south side of the city. However, they helplessly looked at the flood of light cavalry. Without even looking in the direction of the city gate, they ran straight towards it.
The actions of the cavalry led by Cheng Zhipeng immediately stupefied the garrison at the city gate. None of them believed what they saw with their own eyes, and each of them had a string of doubts in their hearts, "Could it be that this cavalry is not here to support the south side of the city? They're just passing by? Where are they going? "
Let alone the fact that he did not know about the large-scale gang fight that was currently happening in the southern part of the city and had been going on for a very long time, even if he knew about it, he would not care. This was because in his heart, there was only a single voice, and that voice kept on appearing beside his ear as if it was the royal decree of the king, causing Cheng Zhipeng to not have any thoughts of resisting.
Just like that, the cavalry troops openly 'passed by' the south of the city, towards the vast forest in the southwest of Fengyang City.

"Lord Commander, this is bad!" Just as the commander was anxiously waiting for the result in the south of the city, the general came running back and called out to him.
"What's wrong?" Seeing the anxious look on the general's face, the commander suddenly had a bad feeling.
"The gang fight south of the city is getting more and more intense. The situation is getting bigger. If we don't stop it now, I'm afraid ?" The general gasped for breath as he spoke.
"How can this be? Where did Cheng Zhipeng go? Didn't he lead people to stop them? They're not here yet? I want to punish him for his delay. " The commander was infuriated, overturning everything on the book.
"Sigh, the people from the south of the city said that they did not enter the city. They saw Cheng Zhipeng leading the team of horses towards the southwest area of the city." The general looked at the raging commander and reported nervously in his heart.
"What?" Where was he going? scolded, this Cheng Zhipeng, I want to remove him from his post! " The commander grabbed the general's chest armor and asked. It was as if he was grabbing onto Cheng Zhipeng himself. His face was twisted to the point that it was almost deformed due to anger.
"Lord, your subordinate doesn't know either!" The general helplessly explained. Of course, he turned his head with all his might to the side, as if he was dodging an extremely unpleasant breath.

"General Cheng, why did we come here to cut down trees?" A Academy Officer came to Cheng Zhipeng's side and asked.
"I have no idea. The order I received was to come here and cut down trees!" Cheng Zhipeng didn't even spare a glance at the Academy Officer, left behind only a few words, and then, he went to chop down trees.
"Oh, why did the Lord Commander give such a strange order?" Academy Officer was a little puzzled, but he did not dare to ask anymore, and only talked to himself.
"Bang ?" "Bang ?" The soldiers were also puzzled, but since it was an order, they could only obey it.
Imagine, you might have seen a few people cutting down trees, but have you ever seen close to a thousand people cutting down trees together? The sound of armor colliding, the sound of axes striking tree trunks, the sound of thousands of people shouting in a deafening manner. So many voices were mixed together, rising and falling in continuous succession. The scene was indescribably grand.

"Old Li, with so many victims gathering here, why haven't the Surveillance Council received any relevant news?"
Old Qian, I have a feeling that this matter is fishy and seems to be a conspiracy. I'm afraid this matter will not be simple.
"That's true, Old Li. We shouldn't be discovered by the victims in this outfit. Let's take the opportunity to sneak in and see what's going on!"
"Alright, let's split up!"
? ?.
"Just as Pavilion Master had expected, this group of people from the Surveillance Council have really come!"
Go inform the brothers in the pavilion among the victims, pay close attention to these two Surveillance Council s.
"Yes, Lord Canghai!"
"Are you ready for what needs to be done?"
"Your excellency, don't worry. These grandchildren will definitely be amazing!"
"You brat, don't talk so much nonsense. Hurry up and do something!"
"Lord, just watch!"
? ?.
Location: Outside Fengyang City; Time: When silver is handed over, the victims encircle the decimetine.
"Old Li, are the people from decimetine the county governor, Wu Daode, and his master?"
"There's no mistake, it should be them!"
"Who is that other group?"
"I can't tell. However, the person who shouted this time should be a high ranking figure from a certain faction."
"Then we must remember our appearances and compare it with the portraits in Surveillance Council!"
"Don't worry!"
"Hmph, this group of people are quite bold. They actually dared to impersonate the imperial court's minister in public. No matter who he is, he should just wait for death!"
"In the end, we can get evidence of their identities. Otherwise, we won't be able to do anything with our words alone!"
"Then let's see how this will go!"
"Un, we'll do it that way!"
? ?.
"Humph, looks like Surveillance Council does not plan to be a spectator, I'm afraid he will have to take action himself!"
"Let them cause a ruckus. In any case, no matter how much trouble we have to put up with the Pavilion Master's plan, we just need to act according to the plan!"
"Let's go, we will have to deal with this group of victims later. I've told the leaders of these victims what to do. We'll watch the rest of the show immediately!"
"Don't forget the Pavilion Master's reminder!"
"Don't forget that the messenger from the manor will be taken care of, and someone has been assigned to take away all their belongings!"
"Mn, remember to give those two people in Surveillance Council a piece, otherwise they will return empty-handed!"
"Ha ha!"

The people always paid attention to the climax and the ending, it was because the climax gave them a feeling of surging emotions, the end result answered their endless questions. No matter if the story was beautiful or sad, because of the existence of the end, it would always draw the curtain, and then completely draw a end that might be perfect or regretful.
However, little attention was paid to the development of the process. Even the people in the depths of the process would often ignore the traces of the development. Then, almost no one would have thought that a five-year-old child would be able to lead and plan all of this. This caused everything to develop in a seemingly ordinary manner, leading to a massive qualitative change.
When the future generations were organizing the past affairs of the Demon Emperor, they had ingeniously discovered that he was currently at the starting point of all the events in the Fengyang City. As a result, it had become vaguely known to the world that everything that happened afterwards was most likely related to the him who had always been in a state of affairs crazily.
