Traveling through ancient times: living a different life
Chapter 98: Seizing Shangyou City
After the operation was completed, I went to my room to rest for a while, and woke up at 11:00 p.m. in the evening due to the alarm clock.
Biyue, Luocheng, Xiaomai, Chenchen and Chen Chun were ready to set off. They first came to the central military tent and said goodbye to Han Shaoqing and his two sons, asking them to wait for good news from them.
They took out the flying carpet and five people stood on it, then opened the protective shield and flew into the sky from the central military tent.
The father and his two sons were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths as they looked at the flying carpet flying away. This was a magic weapon that only immortals had.
It was pitch black all along the way, without a trace of light. The flying carpet flew towards Shangyou City. After a stick of incense had passed, a majestic city could be seen in the distance ahead. This was Shangyou City that had been captured by the enemy.
The city is quite big. The towering city walls stand there like a giant dragon blocking the soldiers of Dachang Kingdom. There are tall city gates and thick city walls. There are houses built on the city walls. From a distance, you can see a row of lanterns lit on them and teams of people patrolling on them. The flag of Ulan Kingdom is also planted on the parapets.
If we rely solely on soldiers to attack Shangyou City in the middle of winter, not only will there be heavy casualties, but with only 120,000 people, lacking food and clothing, I don't know how many young men will die on the battlefield, and how many families will suffer and be heartbroken because of the loss of sons, wives losing husbands, and children losing fathers.
These are all bloody lessons. Today, I captured Shangyou City without bloodshed, which can save many broken families and give some hope to relatives who are looking forward to family reunion. I can also be considered to be accumulating virtue and doing good deeds for myself. I, Chen Biyue, tried to kill as little as possible, not only the enemy army but also the Dachang army.
The flying carpet flew silently over the city wall and flew towards the city. Not far away, they saw a relatively flat hillside. On an open space next to a forest, the flying carpet landed and four people walked out of it.
Bi Yue stood on the flying carpet and said to them, "The four of you wait here. I will go to the city alone to get information."
He took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Luo Chen, "There are four pills in it. Take one each. I'll go out for a while and come back to pick you up after I'm done." The four nodded in agreement.
Bi Yue stood on the flying carpet and looked at the brightly lit streets in the city below. There were many lanterns hanging on each street, illuminating the entire city.
The residents in the city had basically turned off the lights and most people had gone to bed. Only the lights on the streets of Shangyou City were still on, and there were soldiers patrolling every street.
Bi Yue knew that it was the Three Kingdoms War period and each country was cautious, fearing that bad guys would sneak into the city. It would not be wrong to be cautious.
Bi Yue stood above the city, took out a jade flute from her arms and began to play it. This flute was won in a lottery when she reached level 12.
The system told her at that time that once this flute was blown, it could make people fall asleep for ten hours. If the flute was blown now, the sound would be heard by everyone in the city, causing them to slowly fall asleep. They would sleep for ten hours and would not wake up until noon the next morning.
After playing the flute for half an hour around the entire Shangyou City, I went to the general's mansion to check out the magic brought by the sound of the flute. Under the guidance of the system, I flew to the general's mansion and checked the people inside. Sure enough, they were sleeping like dead pigs.
Bi Yue laughed happily. This flute is really a good thing. "System, thank you. With this treasure, I can easily conquer a few cities without any effort, right?"
"Host, you are now a cultivator. Not only Dachang Country, but the other two countries are no match for you. You are now the most powerful woman in these three countries, and no one can do anything to you."
"There can't be only three countries on this planet right now. There must be other countries. Do other countries also have powerful immortal cultivators?"
"I can't detect it yet. You are the most powerful at the moment. After the three kingdoms are unified, you can also go around the earth to see if there are other immortal cultivators."
"Okay, then I'll take you to visit all the countries on this planet, and we'll go on a spontaneous trip."
He went to the general's mansion and took a walk around. He opened the storehouse and took out the gold, silver, treasures, antique paintings, food, cloth, beautiful tables, chairs, benches, etc. He also searched the kitchen for some pots and pans, chickens, ducks, fish, raw and cooked meat, and put them all into his treasure bag. He couldn't come here for nothing. He had to take what he should take and collect what he should collect. After emptying the general's mansion, he set up his flying carpet and flew to the grove to meet the four people.
When everyone saw Bi Yue coming back, they hurriedly asked what was going on. Bi Yue said to them, "Did you hear the sound of the flute? I played it, and it can make everyone in the city fall into a coma. The reason you didn't fall into a coma is because you took the pills. Everyone in the city will wake up at the beginning of the morning."
The four of them understood what was going on. The five of them stood on the flying carpet and turned on the protective shield. Bi Yue took them down to the square inside the city gate, which was large and wide enough.
Bi Yue ordered tens of thousands of pairs of handcuffs and leg irons from the system and threw them on the ground, distributing them to several people, asking them to take dozens of pairs each. The remaining ones would be distributed to more than ten thousand people later, and they would be told how to use them.
He told Chen Chen to go to the city gate later and open the gate when he saw the big red lanterns lit on the city wall. Bi Yue stood on the flying carpet, flew to the top of the city wall, took out a red lantern, lit it and hung it on the pillar of the city wall.
Han Chengzhang hid in the woods nearby with more than 10,000 soldiers and ordered the soldiers who were going to check the lanterns, "If the red lanterns on the city wall are lit, come back and report," and the soldiers left in response.
A quarter of an hour later, a soldier ran in and said, "General Han, the red lanterns on the tower have been hung up. Should we go over there now?"
General Han ordered everyone, "Get ready and set off immediately."
The soldiers immediately rushed out of the woods and ran towards the city gate. Chen Chen had already opened the city gate and lowered the drawbridge at the gate. More than 10,000 people walked across the drawbridge and entered the city.
Chen Chen ordered each soldier to take dozens of pairs of handcuffs and leg irons on the ground, and taught them how to use them. Then they went to handcuff all the enemy soldiers who had been stunned by the flute sound.
Han Chengzhang sent a lieutenant general with a team of soldiers back to the camp to tell his father that they had captured Shangyou City without a single soldier. He told the soldiers in the camp to move some of them there overnight, leaving 30,000 soldiers to enter the city tomorrow with the seriously wounded and sick.
The main reason is that there are several seriously injured patients who just underwent surgery yesterday afternoon. It's such a cold winter, and the temperature is particularly low at night. I'm afraid that the injured can't bear it, so I'll go there tomorrow morning, which will also give them some time to recover.
After receiving such important news, Han Shaoqing ordered the generals and soldiers under him to start packing up, arranging for 90,000 people to enter the city first, and the rest would escort the seriously wounded and some supplies over tomorrow.
