"It's a change of defense. A change of defense."
Just as Zi Ji was about to arrive, a group of Great Lu Dynasty soldiers came out from the west gate. These were the people who came to change their defense.
"Great, we've finally changed our defense."
"I'm scared to death, the people from the Fengjue Country outside are too scary."
"Fourth Elder Wang, you're not scared to the point that you peed your pants, are you? "Ah, haha!"
"He must have peed. I just saw a puddle of yellow water at his feet."
The team that had been guarding this place all seemed very happy to see the change in defense coming over.
One had to know, that at normal times, a city gate guarded in the middle of the night was a chore, furthermore, outside of the city, there were people from the Fengjue Country attacking the city. Those people did not just prepare to enter the city through the cloud ladder, they also prepared to enter through the door, and as long as the city gate was not big, it was possible for it to be breached, and towards the cruelty of the people from the Fengjue Country, these soldiers had all heard, and even seen it with their own eyes, so when the people from the Fengjue Country entered the city, their fates could be imagined.
As long as the city gates were breached, these soldiers would definitely die. On the other hand, the soldiers in the city still had time to hide and escape, so these people who were guarding the city could not wait for someone else to come over to help them escape from this dangerous place.
Now that they saw the new defender had finally arrived, they were naturally very happy.
"Alright, we will be guarding this place now. You should go back and have a good rest." The leader of the group that just arrived said to the people that were previously stationed here.
"I wanted to go back to sleep for a long time."
"You can be considered to be here. You must be careful, you must guard this city gate. You cannot let the barbarians of the Fengjue Country in from the outside."
"Right, right, those people are all devils. If we let them in, our heads will be caved in."
Although they had to leave this place, the soldiers who had been guarding this place did not forget to warn the newcomers to be careful. Although they had to leave this place, the soldiers who had been guarding this place did not forget to warn the newcomers.
"Leave the city gates to us, you can rest assured, we guarantee that there will be no mishaps!" The commander said while patting his chest.
He was not trying to trick the others, but was actually thinking about it. He was Wu Dayu's distant relative, his name was Wu Guibao, and he was the commander of this defense changing team.
Before he came to change his guard, Wu Guibao had even seen Wu Dayu. Wu Dayu had also warned him time and time again that they must watch the city gate, and must not be careless in the slightest.
Wu Guibao naturally agreed. He was able to become the leader of a team at such a young age because of his relationship with Wu Dayu, and was usually very obedient to him.
Furthermore, Wu Dayu had repeatedly told him the importance of protecting the city gate. This city wall was thick, and after years of renovations, it would not be easy for the people outside to breach it. As long as there were no major mistakes, it was not a problem to guard the city gate.
And because of this, Wu Guibao appeared to be full of confidence at the moment. Only, he did not realize that when he said those words, many people in his team were looking at him with rather playful expressions.
The people who were stationed here earlier happily left and went back to sleep. They also knew the situation of the city's defenses; no matter how brave they were, it was impossible for the people outside to break into this place in a short period of time. Therefore, no matter how intense the battle here was, they could still go back and have a good night's sleep and not worry about the city walls being broken.
"Alright, everyone get back to your seats and keep your spirits up. Don't let those bastards from the Fengjue Country get a chance to take advantage of us." Wu Guibao said loudly to his subordinates.
"General, don't worry. I guarantee that there won't be any mistakes."
"Yeah, it's fine if the people from the Fengjue Country didn't come, but if they dare, then let them know how sharp the guns in grandfather's hands are."
The crowd all laughed, they did not look nervous at all, but their eyes did not have much of a smile, and the ridicule in them was many. It was just that Wu Guibao did not realise that it was night time.
Wu Guibao was very happy when people called him "General". His dream was to become a victorious general who would win every battle ever again. Although he was only a field officer now, he believed in his abilities.
The reaction of the soldiers also made him very happy. He felt that this team he brought out was very strong, when everyone else was very afraid of the people from Fengjue Country, his own team, however, was eager to have a fight with the people from Fengjue Country. If this wasn't strength and confidence, then what was?
Of course, Wu Guibao also wanted to have a big battle with the people of the Fengjue Country, and build his contribution points on the battlefield. However, his current mission was to protect the city gate, and Wu Dayu did not allow him to move around as he pleased.
The moonlight was good tonight, and adding the flames on the city wall, even though it was already late at night, the scenery around them wasn't bad. After Wu Guibao had arranged for the subordinates to place their defenses, she had decided to find a corner where she could lean against the wall.
As for the others, they looked at Yue Tou, then looked at Wu Guibao who was resting. After that, they nodded to each other, and some of them slowly walked to Wu Guibao, while the others walked to the city gate, and carried down the horizontal logs on top of the city gate.1
Wu Guibao, who was preparing to sleep, just happened to hear some unusual sounds. This city gate was very thick, the horizontal logs on top of the city gate were also very heavy, it required ten or so people to lift them at the same time to lift them, so, making a sound while lifting them, was unavoidable.
"What are you doing?" Wu Guibao opened his eyes and coincidentally saw his subordinates lifting slabs for a while, and still couldn't react in time to what was happening, and could only ask a little blankly.
At the same time, the people who were walking next to Wu Guibao were also startled, as though they did not expect Wu Guibao to suddenly wake up, but, following that, their faces revealed a smile, but, in Wu Guibao's eyes, that smile seemed to be extremely cruel.
"What is it? "Of course it's to open the city gates." A soldier that walked to Wu Guibao's side said.
"Why did you open the city gates? The higher ups are going to counterattack? " At this time, Wu Guibao seemed to not have fully woken up yet. Seeing his subordinates opening the city gates, he thought that the people above were going to leave and take the initiative to attack.
"Counterattack?" "Haha!" The person who had spoken earlier mocked him twice and said, "Do you think that the people who are afraid of staying in the city will have the courage to counterattack?"
"Then why did you open the city gate?" Wu Guibao asked, after that, he seemed to have thought of something, stood up suddenly and said: Could it be that you all want to open the city gates and allow the people from the Fengjue Country to enter?
"I didn't expect that you were not stupid." At this time, three or four people had already walked to Wu Guibao's side and surrounded him.
It was only at this time that Wu Guibao realized the seriousness of the situation. The people in front of him, were actually secretly communicating with the people from the Fengjue Country s outside, and actually wanted to open the gates of the city and let them in.
"Don't you want to live? A crime of fornication against an enemy nation, that is a capital offense! " Wu Guibao said, he was truly afraid now, these people were his subordinates, if these people did anything bad, then he would be implicated, and adultery was a serious crime, even if it was Wu Dayu, he would not be able to protect him at that time.
"We have an affair with an enemy? No no, it's you, it's you, Wu Guibao who had a secret affair with an enemy nation. You were the one who opened this city gate, we were only forced to do it helplessly, and even tried to resist, but, we failed. " The person who spoke earlier, looked at Wu Guibao and chuckled.
"You're talking nonsense! I did not intend to open the gate! " Wu Guibao said anxiously: "Don't do anything stupid, if those bastards from the Fengjue Country come in, we won't be able to live."
"If you can't survive, how could anything happen to us? We are their friends, and helped them open the gate. Why would they kill us? " Those people replied, "As for you, you won't be able to live past tomorrow."
"What do you want?" At this time, Wu Guibao saw that these people had ill intentions and subconsciously wanted to retreat. But behind him was a wall, and there was simply no way out, and in other directions, there were people blocking all directions.
"You colluded with the Fengjue Country and forced us to open the city gate. We resisted with all our might, and even though we couldn't stop you from opening the gate, we succeeded in killing you. Tell me, do you think the people up there will blame us?" The person who spoke earlier said in an insidious manner.
"Nonsense, all of you are talking nonsense, you are trying to blame me for this!" Wu Guibao shouted.
Only, Wu Guibao noticed that even though all of his subordinates were looking at him with smiles on their faces, no one came forward to help. It was clear that they were all in the same group.
At this moment, Wu Guibao sorrowfully discovered that he was actually a loner, and that not a single person in this group was interested in him.
Actually, this was also mainly because Wu Guibao was not some kind of general level talent, and even had a sense of ambition and lack of talent. Otherwise, he would not have been so unaware of the change that was happening right before him.
"Stop shouting, it's useless. For the sake of our brothers' glory and wealth, I'll have to trouble General Wu to sacrifice himself." A person at the side walked up, and as he spoke, he stabbed his sword towards Wu Guibao.
Wu Guibao wanted to dodge, but he was surrounded by their people, he had nowhere to dodge to, and was stabbed in the face.
