Hearing Tang Yin's summons, the Chastity Army's soldiers gathered together casually. Looking around, there were all kinds of armor.

After Zhu Zhuke finished reading, he could not help but frown, and looked down at Tang Yin, asking: "Tang Chu, are you leading troops like this?"

Tang Yin blinked and looked back. He did not feel that anything was amiss as he carefully asked, "General Zhu's meaning is ?"

Zhu Zhuke sighed secretly, pointing the horsewhip at Tang Yin's nose, he said angrily: "It's fine if he has an unorganized military uniform, but don't tell me you don't even have a large standard flag?"

Ouch! This Zhenren's eyes were quite sharp! Tang Yin secretly nodded. Everything else could be put on, except for the great banners, which could not be made in a short period of time.

The banner was also known as the First Flag, which represented the name of an army. It was also a symbol of this army, and it was meticulously crafted, with careful embroidery on both sides. Tang Yin and the others could pretend to be a local army of the town, but they didn't have the banner of the town of Seven Zither.

However, Tang Yin reacted quickly, without even thinking, he replied immediately: "Reporting to General Zhu, it's like this, the town's large banner had already been lost somewhere a few years ago, and is currently being chased by people, just that ? It's just that we haven't done it yet. "

Zhu Zhuke rolled his eyes, looking at Tang Yin's army that was more than a thousand strong, he did not know what to reprimand them for.

Unlike armies, soldiers were not like soldiers. They did not even have a flag. During a war, would the soldiers know which way to charge if they could not see the flag?

But then, Zhu Zhuke thought that it was just right! He raised his head and said, "Don't call yourselves from Seven Zither Town ?"

After hearing that, Gu Ji's body trembled, and he anxiously turned to look at Tang Yin. The latter squinted his eyes and did not say anything, but Gu Ji could sense the killing intent that was leaking out from his body.

He hurriedly said, "Wish ? General Zhu, we have indeed rushed here from Seven Zither Town! "

Zhu Zhuke laughed coldly, and said: "But not now! From now on, all of you should go back to your original missions! " With that, he waved his hand and said, "You will return immediately!"

However, no one was afraid that they would have too many people under their command, and it was the same for Zhu Zhuke. If he did not meet the local army of Seven Zither Town, it would be fine, but now that he did, he would take it in for his own use.

At this moment, Tang Yin and Gu Ji finally understood what he meant. It turned out that he did not see through the flaws in his side, but had instead planned to subdue these thousand plus people.

Tang Yin rejoiced in his heart, even the heavens were helping me, he was just worrying about how to sneak into the Dragon Head Fortress, but now, with Yue Ting Army as a cover, it became a piece of cake.

Seeing him bow his head and not say a word, Zhu Zhuke thought that he did not wish to. Tang Chu, you are not willing to follow this general's arrangement? " While speaking, he pretended to touch the sword at his waist, as if he wanted to kill Tang Yin if he wasn't willing.

Tang Yin anxiously raised his head, his face did not have a trace of happiness, but panic filled his face. He quickly waved his hands and said: "This little one does not dare! This little one does not dare! " As he spoke, he shouted to the left and right, "Didn't you hear what General Zhu has said? "Return to the team!"

"Yes sir!" The thousand odd Chastity Army soldiers all saw through Tang Yin's intentions. Everyone pretended to be unwilling and replied weakly, before they walked towards the Leisurely Cloud Army's camp in groups of twos and threes.

Zhu Zhuke impatiently snorted, then scolded Tang Yin in dissatisfaction: "Control your subordinates, if there is a problem with being under this general's command, I would have asked you for it!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" "General, rest assured, this lowly one will definitely not cause any trouble for you!" Tang Yin nodded his head.

"That's for the best!" Zhu Zhuke muttered, after that, he got off the horse and handed the reins to the servants by the side, and then said to the captains: "The entire army can rest here, and after dusk when the sun is no longer enough, we will head to the fort."

"Yes!" "General!" Tang Yin followed the rest of the captains and bowed with his hands cupped in greeting.

This was because the plan had not changed fast enough. Tang Yin and his subordinates had planned all this beforehand, but now, it was all useless, no one thought that there would be trouble in the middle of the road. They would meet the local troops of the Joy Pavilion City, and even more so, they would not think that Tang Yin and his men would be taken in by the them.

Time flew by quickly. Unknowingly, the sun had already set in the west. It was almost dusk, and a chilly wind was blowing in the air. Zhu Zhuke felt that it was about time, he sent orders to all his subordinates to set off for Dragon Head Fortress.

The troops didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. They successfully reached the Dragon Head Fortress.

Hou Qiu, the main general of the fort, had long heard that Le Ting Army was coming to reinforce them. He stood on top of the fort's wall and looked outside.

He ordered the gates to be opened, and the music pavilion troops to be let into the city. Don't look at how arrogant Zhu Zhuke acted in front of Tang Yin. However, in front of Hou Qiu, he was no different from a pug.

Seeing Hou Qiu walking down from the city wall, Zhu Zhuke hurriedly adjusted the armor on his body. Immediately after, he kneeled on one knee respectfully and said, "I, Zhu Zhuke greets General Hou!"

Actually, Hou Qiu's rank was not considered high, to the extent that he could not even be considered a titled general. But he still served in the imperial court, which was a heaven and earth difference from the local army.

Towards Zhu Zhuke's respect, Hou Qiu happily accepted. He strode to Zhu Zhuke's side, sized him up, and said slowly: "General Zhu, thank you for your hard work."2

"Ah, General Hou is too serious. This lowly general will fight for my country and share my worries. I dare not say that it will be hard on you." Zhu Zhuke replied carefully.

Hou Qiu smiled, nodded, and asked again: "How many brothers did General Zhu come to reinforce us this time?" That was what he was concerned about.

Zhu Zhuke hurriedly replied, "Reporting to General, there are a total of nearly seven thousand people!"

Ah!" There were really quite a few of them! With another seven thousand men added to the garrison, the total force was close to fifty thousand. Even though the allied army was said to have at least a million soldiers, it was not that easy to take down the fortress that they were defending. Hou Qiu smiled and waved at Zhu Zhu Zhu Ke, saying, "I wish you a long journey. You can rest first." As he was speaking, he turned to the deputy general beside him and said, "General Wu, find a place for General Zhu and the brothers of the Le Ting Army to stay. The conditions are as good as they can be. Don't let them suffer!

"Yes!" "General!" Hou Qiu's Deputy General was called Wu Chao and was an official from an influential family. He was powerful and wise, and was brave enough to fight, but he was still young, in his early thirties, and still had some experience in the army.

Wu Chao brought Zhu Zhuke and the group to the inner part of the fortress. As Tang Yin walked along with the flow of people, he also looked around. The fortress was not very big, as though it was a small city, but there were no miscellaneous buildings inside, all of them were Army Tent.

In some places, Army Tent were brightly lit, but in some places, it was pitch-black. It could be seen that more than half of the Army Tent were already filled with people.

The base that Wu Chao had arranged for them was close to the heart of the fortress, which meant that there were more than two hundred tents of different sizes.

He turned around and said to Zhu Zhuke: "General Zhu, from now on, your troop will live here. As for the allocation of Army Tent, you can arrange it yourself!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Thank you, General Wu! " How could Zhu Zhuke dare to say half a no? Nodding his head like he was pounding garlic, he repeatedly thanked Wu Chao.

After chatting for a while, he suddenly thought of something and asked: "General Wu, may I ask how many troops are in our stronghold?"

Wu Chao casually said: "Including the seven thousand brothers that you brought, it should be around fifty thousand."

"Oh!" Although Zhu Zhuke said yes, his heart was in his throat, and he muttered to himself: So there were only fifty thousand people ?

Not wanting to stay any longer, just as Wu Chao was about to leave, suddenly, it was as if the stronghold had exploded, the horn sounds were long, the drum beats were loud, the thunder-like sounds of battle could be heard from the stronghold.

The sudden turn of events made everyone's face change. Zhu Zhuke secretly grinned, he couldn't be so unlucky, right? He asked, "General Wu, this... "What's going on?"

"The enemy is most likely coming to attack the stronghold!" Wu Chao's face became gloomy, holding onto his sword, his eyes shone with a terrifying light.

It was said that the attacking allied army had over a million people. How could a small Dragon Head Fortress with only fifty thousand defending troops withstand the attack of so many enemy troops? Zhu Zhuke didn't have the least bit of confidence in his heart. When the words of war nearly left his mouth, it made him swallow them back down.

He could delay them, but Tang Yin could not. He did not want to fight, and as for how he could get close to the city gates and not open the city gates, it was impossible for the hundred thousand soldiers of his side to attack so many fortresses guarded by the garrison.

He took a deep breath, took two steps forward and said loudly, "Since the enemy has attacked, we don't need to rest any longer. Let's go up to the city wall and kill the enemy!"

After Zhu Zhuke heard this, he really wanted to turn around and kick Tang Yin hard. Just as he was about to reprimand Tang Yin, Wu Chao turned his head and looked at him from head to toe, and asked: "This brother is ?"

"General, this lowly one is the commander of a thousand men in the army!"

There was no need to use the Arts of Clairvoyance. Tang Yin was completely unable to sense the existence of the Spirit Pressure, so with a single glance, he could tell that he was not a Spirit Cultivator. It was not an easy thing for someone other than Spirit Cultivator to become a Captain. Wu Chao could not help but look at him a few more times, but did not say anything further. He turned and said to Zhu Zhuke: "General Zhu, it's a coincidence that you came early, since you made it, then bring your brothers with you to fight with me!"

"Yes!" General Wu! " Wu Chao had already opened his mouth, so no matter how timid he was, he didn't dare to say it out loud. He could only muster up the courage to agree, and at the same time, didn't forget to glare at Tang Yin fiercely.

When they returned to the stronghold's gate, the soldiers of the allied army had already pushed their way to the bottom of the wall. Without the support of weapons, the people used ladders to rush to the top of the city and started a life-and-death battle with the Chastity Army.
