The empress disliked my achievements for overshadowing her own, so she turned her attention to the N

"who?"

In the quiet night, a shout rang out.

Chen Nan knew clearly that he had touched the upper part of the armor.

Not only that, but there was also a strong smell of urine in my nose.

He never imagined that at such a crucial moment, he would run into a Daqian soldier getting up to relieve himself in the middle of the night.

Most importantly, he also ran into someone who was relieving themselves.

Looking at Chen Nan's black armor, the man knew that this person was not from their Great Qian Dynasty.

The moment he opened his mouth, before he could utter the first word, Chen Nan covered his mouth.

"What luck! To be the first person to die by my hand tonight, and without any pain!"

Chen Nan smiled wickedly and said softly.

That man had no idea that Chen Nan of the Northern Wei had already appeared in the city defended by their 300,000-strong army of the Great Qian Dynasty.

For a moment, the man struggled wildly with his limbs.

The more he struggled, the stronger Chen Nan's grip became.

After finding the right angle, pinch hard on the Adam's apple.

The man stopped struggling, and Chen Nan gently placed his pale-faced body on the ground.

Unexpectedly, even such a faint sound disturbed the soldiers sleeping nearby.

A puzzled voice called out, "Who is it? Why are you yelling like that in the middle of the night?"

"Don't be silly, it might be a rat."

"I'd rather sleep more than waste this time!"

Looking at the soldiers lying sprawled around him, Chen Nan, expressionless, carefully stepped over the 'corpses' before reaching the city gate.

Looking at the heavy wooden city gate in front of him, a smile finally appeared on his face.

He pressed his hands on the door bolt and removed the wooden stick that was stuck inside.

Pull hard.

squeak-

The sound had barely been made when a voice erupted from the city wall: "Who? Who is opening the city gate?"

The sound was so loud that most of the soldiers sleeping on the city wall rubbed their eyes in a daze.

Seeing this, Chen Nan dared not delay any longer and, ignoring the sounds coming from him, pulled hard.

He single-handedly pulled open the wooden door, which weighed several hundred pounds.

"Someone is coming!"

"Someone is coming!"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Someone has opened the city gates!!!"

In an instant, a cacophony of sounds erupted from the city walls.

In contrast, Chen Nan calmly opened the city gate completely.

In an instant, countless soldiers poured into the city.

The soldiers' faces were filled with boundless hatred.

As soon as they entered the city gate, they searched everywhere for enemies, wanting to vent their anger.

After opening the city gate, he crossed the street alone and headed towards the Suzhou County Government Office.

Meanwhile, Mo Bai's men arrived at Hong Yao's place in Ximen first.

Hongyao, who was resting in the main tent, heard that it was someone sent by Chen Nan.

He didn't even have time to put on his armor, and came into the tent wearing only a white shirt.

Upon seeing the visitor, he shouted, "Did Commander Chen send you here for any orders?"

"By order of Commander Chen, General Hongyao is to gather the full strength of the army to guard the west gate of Su City and prevent the soldiers of Daqian from escaping."

"Yes, I understand. Is there anything else...?"

Hongyao was feeling drowsy and didn't hear clearly at all; he was only thinking about getting rid of the person in front of him.

He only realized what he had said halfway through, his mouth and pupils widening simultaneously: "What did you say? Commander Chen ordered me to guard the west gate of Suzhou?"

He was dumbfounded and took a good look at his surroundings.

He's definitely inside the main tent.

They were the ones attacking the city, that's true, so how did it suddenly become that they were concentrating all their forces to defend the west gate?

Tilting his head, he pondered for a long time before finally asking, still unsure, "Are you sure you didn't make a mistake? Commander Chen wants me to guard the west gate?"

The same scene was happening at the South Gate.

Hongming looked at the person kneeling in front of him and asked in confusion, "What does Commander Chen mean by ordering me to guard the South Gate and the East Gate?"

"Reporting to the commander, the north gate of Suzhou has been breached."

"I am acting on Commander Chen's orders and request your assistance, Commander!"

"What did you say? The North Gate has been breached?"

Hongming was so excited that he leaned forward slightly.

She couldn't believe it; she had originally sent Chen Nan only to prevent Jiang Zhe from making a desperate attack on Juxia Pass.

But this person in front of me actually said that Chen Nan breached the North Gate?

The fierce battle that took place during the day was still deeply etched in her mind.

They slaughtered Jiang Zhe's first batch of defenders, and then the second batch of defenders came up.

She gave the army only fifteen minutes to rest before launching a second attack on the city.

It should be noted that Jiang Zhe's first wave of defenders numbered a full 30,000.

It took her a whole day to kill the first batch.

But what did Chen Nan do?

She had heard from her subordinates that Chen Nan was drinking strong liquor under the North Gate during the day.

How long has it been? The North Gate has already fallen?

At this moment, Hongming was lost in confusion.

She couldn't imagine what kind of extraordinary person Chen Nan was, that he could conquer the North Gate in such a short time.

However, she knew that if she didn't give the order, with Chen Nan's 50,000 troops, Su City would soon be back in Jiang Zhe's hands.

Without the slightest hesitation, he shouted the order: "All troops, listen up! Fully armed, attack the city!!!"

As soon as the military order was relayed, the Northern Wei camp immediately began to move.

In the dead of night, the Northern Wei soldiers, upon hearing the sudden order to attack the city, not only showed no disdain but were instead filled with high morale.

They had already learned this from Hongming.

The ten thousand garrison soldiers and more than two hundred thousand civilians in the city before us were all slaughtered by the Daqian army.

At one moment, the Northern Wei army at the southeast, west, and central gates simultaneously donned armor.

They slowly approached the city gate at a very slow marching pace.

To outsiders, this method of marching seems very strange.

At this moment, Chen Nan had already arrived at the entrance of the county government office.

He looked at the red wooden door in front of him and casually tossed aside the guard's corpse.

I pushed open the cold door with both hands, felt the breeze for a moment, and then stepped over the threshold and slowly entered.

They searched the rooms in the courtyard for a long time but couldn't find Jiang Zhe and Lin Qiao.

He glanced at the inner hall of the county government office, rubbed his nose, and left only a fleeting image.

Meanwhile, inside the main hall, Jiang Zhe was snoring away under a bright red quilt.

He was unaware that a second person had entered the room.

Chen Nan, upon entering the room, did not rush to wake Jiang Zhe.

Instead, he sat calmly at the round table, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of already cooled tea into it.

Looking at the yellowish tea in the cup, Chen Nan smiled and said, "Enjoy this last cup of tea in your life!"

As he spoke, he splashed the entire cup of cold tea onto Jiang Zhe's face.

Instantly, Jiang Zhe sat up, looked around, and shouted loudly.

"Who? Who the hell is messing with me?"

"Lin Qiao? Are you tired of living?"

Jiang Zhe thought Lin Qiao was joking because he hadn't accepted his suggestion to guard the North Gate.

"You don't seem to be fully awake yet?" Chen Nan said with a soft laugh.

"Huh? That voice?"

Jiang Zhe felt the voice was somewhat unfamiliar, yet it also carried a hint of familiarity.

Rubbing his blurry eyes, he finally saw the people in the room clearly.

At just one glance, he was shocked and exclaimed, "You, you, you, you... you are actually Chen Chen Chen Chen... Chen Nan?"

"How...how did you get in?"

Jiang Zhe was completely dumbfounded.

Chen Nan, who should have been drinking and eating meat under the North Gate, in a fit of impotent rage, appeared before him at this moment.

How could he not be terrified?
