C43 External Head Lin Had Heard of the Commander When He Designed the Attack on the Stronghold

The next afternoon, Lee Tianyu led his troops and was very close to the town at the foot of the mountain of Tianfeng Stronghold. Although they hadn't arrived yet, they had already entered the territory of Tianfeng Stronghold. Naturally, these five thousand people couldn't be hidden from the people of Tianfeng Stronghold.

"Why are there so many soldiers coming here?" The chief frowned and asked the people in the hall.

"This. . . This subordinate heard news from Shuntian Prefecture that this batch of soldiers were following the Emperor's orders to exterminate the Qing Ling Stronghold. " A person quickly stood out and said.

"Eliminate Qing Ling Castle!! According to their speed, they should only be able to reach the foot of the mountain tonight. No matter what, you have to strengthen your guard tonight. Do not relax. As the saying goes, one must not be afraid of deception in war. Do you know that? "

"Yes, your subordinate obeys. "

"By the way, how is that Lee Tianyu?"

"Him, don't worry, chief. He is just a scholar. How big of a storm can he cause? And now he is chained tightly. He is still waiting there honestly. "

"That's good. You must keep an eye on him. I have a bad premonition recently. You must not be careless. "

"Yes, sir. "

"Yes, go. Make sure to put up a good defense. I'm tired. I want to rest for a while. " After saying that, he waved his hand and everyone left as well.

"Brother Hu, let's go and have some wine later?" After these people came out, their drinking addiction also increased, and they wanted to go and drink.

"What time is it now? Do you still want to go for a drink? Go and patrol properly. "

"Brother Hu, what are you afraid of? Those soldiers are going to attack Qing Ling Castle, not us. Furthermore, that scholar was too weak to even truss a chicken. I think you and the chief are worrying too much. "

"What do you know? The chief was able to walk until today because of his cautiousness. It was precisely because of this that every crisis was resolved in his hands. "

"Brother Hu, now that our stronghold is so powerful, how many times have we defeated the Imperial Court? It's fine. Let's go and have some wine. " As he spoke, he was about to pull the Brother Hu they were talking about.

"Forget it. You guys go ahead. I won't go. I'll go and check on the defense. "

"Sigh! You guys are so nervous. Then let's go. You can go and see for yourself. "

"Okay. Drink less. Don't delay the proper business. "

"Alright, we got it. " With that, he turned around and left.

Time passed bit by bit, and the sky also darkened. The torches in various parts of the stronghold were also lit up. Yang Yunxuan looked at the torches outside. He looked at the sky. Perhaps even the heavens were helping him this time. There were no stars in the sky, and no one knew where the moon was hidden. Without the stars and the moon, it was exceptionally dark outside. After looking at it, he felt that it was about time, so he broke free from the iron chains and exited the house. He turned around and went to the roof to look at the patrolling people. He knew that this night would not be so peaceful.

After a few leaps, he arrived in front of the big wall. While the guards were not paying attention, he jumped over the high wall and went into the forest across from him. In a short while, he went into the forest. After he came in, Lee Tianyu and a few generals came in front of him.

"Mr Yang, how is it?"

"I have seen enough recently, but it seems that the chief is suspicious of me. He has been on alert ever since I came here, and he even locked me up with iron chains. Especially tonight, I can see that there are a lot of patrolling people. It's probably because he received the news that these five thousand elite soldiers have arrived, so he increased his guard in case anything happens. "

"Then what should we do? Who would have thought that we would alert the enemy?"

"It doesn't matter. Although the chief is meticulous, His subordinates aren't as capable as him. I went out to investigate last night. I found a group of patrols in the northwest direction of the stockade. They are addicted to alcohol. When I just came out, I found that they were still drinking there. Later, we will attack in three directions. Picking out ten of the most skilled Royal Guards with ropes, we quietly went to the place I just talked about and attacked the city wall. First, kill the guards there and change into their clothes to blend in. In a while, I will go around the village to defend against the fire. We will use the light of fire as the signal. As long as they see the fire, these people will use the name of the fire to kill those bandits during the chaos. Remember to be careful of your safety. Their goal is not to kill more people. It was to make the stronghold chaotic. The other ten Royal Guards and one thousand elite soldiers were on the other side of the road. When they saw the fire, they immediately climbed onto the walls on both sides of the gate. Take over that place. The next one thousand elite soldiers used ropes to climb over the wall. They quickly took over the gate and opened the gate to let the remaining soldiers in. Do you hear me clearly? "

" I hear you clearly. " All the generals nodded.

"Remember, all of you must be careful, especially your twenty Royal Guards. There are many bandits in the stronghold, and all of you are under the greatest pressure. You might face them alone. I'm afraid that there will be casualties among you, but if you want to destroy the stronghold, you will have to rely on all of you. Are all of you afraid of death?"

"I'm not afraid. Ever since we followed Mask Commander, we, Royal Guards, have already cast life and death aside. It is our honor to be able to participate in such an important mission. Mr Yang, you can rest assured that as long as one of us is still there, we will definitely stick there.

"Mask Commander?"

"Oh, Mr Yang, you may not know. Our Commander is known as the Mask Commander. He wore a mask and grew up with the Emperor and the Princess. He has strong martial arts and has the ability to fight against hundreds of people. He is also an upright person. He is a role model for us.

" It's like this. I have been in the Imperial Palace for a long time. I have seen you all a lot, but why haven't I seen your Commander? "

"Because he returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors three years ago and there was no news from then on. The Emperor has always been free to wait for him to return to the Commander position. During this period of time, there will be a deputy Commander temporarily acting as the temporary replacement. But up until now, there was no news.

"Mask Commander, interesting. I really want to know him when I have the chance. What do you think, young master Lee?" Yang Yunxuan looked at Lee Tianyu as he spoke. Because in his heart, He suspected that Lee Tianyu was this masked Commander. The princess had previously said that he looked a little familiar. Royal Guards also said that the three of them grew up together. The most important thing was that the two of them were also very mysterious.

"Ah! Hehe, I also want to know such a powerful person. I think we should stop talking about this for now. It's more important to get down to business. " He saw how Yang Yunxuan looked at him, which made him feel very unnatural. It was as if Yang Yunxuan was about to see through him at first glance, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Alright, young master Lee is right. It's more important to get down to business. You guys must be careful later. When the time comes, I will wait for an opportunity to cover you guys. That's all. I'll go back first. You guys just do as I said. " With that, he disappeared into the night sky. Lee Tianyu let out a sigh of relief as he watched him leave. He felt that Yang Yunxuan seemed to have noticed something, which made him very nervous. Because if he could see through it, everything that had happened before would be in vain.
