C41 It was like breaking bamboo (2/2)

Facing this kind of favorable terrain, Qin Yong could only lure the snake out of its cave, empty the city, and then wait for the right opportunity to make his move.

Sure enough, the fake news that was transmitted through the poisoned scout worked. Nan Jifu brought twenty thousand new recruits and all the prisoners and Wei Yutian and went out of the city together, they went straight ahead and planned to set up ambush at a place on both sides of a steep mountain with only one path in the middle. According to the intelligence, An Wanjun would pass through this path to ambush the Longmen City's west gate.

Because the mountains near the west gate were so steep, Nan Jifu believed that An Wanjun could very likely sneak in to attack them secretly. After all, Nan Jifu had a deep understanding of the ways of the weapon, if Qin Yong did not use the true way of the weapon, he would not be able to fool Nan Jifu.

Once all the ambushes were set up, Nan Jifu would sit back on top of his dragoncar, waiting for the so called An Wanjun's team to pass by.

The place where they had set up their ambush was at least six to seven kilometers away from the Longmen City. Because of the mountain region, it was normal for them to sneak attack and choose a mountain path that was neither easy to traverse nor very far away.

Inside the Longmen City at this time, the only one with authority was a commander from the rear guard. But because of Lin Jingquan's special identity, this commander had no choice but to listen to Lin Jingquan after he left.

Just as Nan Jifu set up his ambush, a sudden change occurred in the Longmen City. Although there were only three to four thousand soldiers left, they still had the ability to quietly open the east gate.

When Lin Jingquan thought that these two troops couldn't resist because they were poisoned, he let go of his surveillance on them.

In the end, these two Anhui Province soldiers had actually quietly opened the eastern gate of Longmen City City, allowing a large army of thirty thousand to enter the city without Lin Jingquan knowing anything. It seemed that not only was An Wanjun connected to the two troops, the Jinjiang soldiers guarding the eastern gate of the city also took care of them quietly.

The one hundred thousand An Wanjun s that Qin Yong brought out from the Anhui, after and their last huge loss, only sixty thousand people could participate in the battle today.

Now, Qin Yong had brought thirty thousand people into the city. The remaining thirty thousand people were to catch Nan Jifu off guard when he led the troops back after knowing that they had fallen into a trap of luring him away from the mountain.

And there were only a few thousand troops in Huyue City, the rest were all injured. It seemed that Qin Yong was going to take revenge this time.

The two Anhui Province soldiers, in order to find the antidote, were incomparably ferocious. The two generals led three to four thousand men to clear the way. Their momentum was unstoppable, and no one was able to stop them.

When Lin Jingquan found out that Qin Yong had led the troops into the Longmen City, the first thing he thought of was to surrender. Last time, Qin Yong let him go. This time, he believed that Qin Yong would let him go.

After knowing that Lin Jingquan had surrendered, the commander of the rear guard, who had the authority to command the troops, was infuriated. He originally wanted to lead the ten thousand elites to escape through the southern entrance of the South of the city, but he didn't want to be killed by Lin Jingquan's subordinates.

It seemed that Lin Jingquan was so scared that his legs were trembling when he met Qin Yong, and he didn't even have a chance to resist before giving up.

However, those ten thousand elite warriors did not want to lose the war just like this. However, as the commanders had already died, their fierce battle with the beasts had been in vain.

In order to have someone who could send a message to Nan Jifu, Qin Yong purposely opened the door for a few Jinjiang s to escape. Of course, these scout did not know about Lin Jingquan surrendering, otherwise Qin Yong would have lost a chess piece that was used by the Calamity Jinnan.

After releasing the scout, Qin Yong then started to ask Lin Jingquan for the antidote for the poison among the soldiers.

Lin Jingquan knew in his heart that he was the one who suggested the poison, but he did not dare let Qin Yong know. He claimed that all of this was because of Nan Jifu, and as for where he put the antidote, he didn't know either. However, he still released a clue that he was looking for the antidote, which was to prove his innocence and make Qin Yong not keep pestering him.

Very quickly, the warriors found the antidote, but there wasn't as much as Nan Jifu promised. It was clear that a portion of the soldiers who were poisoned were unable to cure the poison at all.

This was because these warriors had previously betrayed An Wanjun, and now, they were forgiven by Qin Yong for his magnanimity, causing them to all feel like dying. Thus, they all expressed that if they could survive the great battle, it wouldn't be too late for them to take the antidote.

More than two hours later, when Nan Jifu received the news that his Longmen City had been broken, he could not help but fly into a rage.

It had only been a month and a half since the Anhui Province sent out their troops, causing Nan Jifu to be extremely uneasy. This meant that his Great General was unable to rush back to save him.

But Nan Jifu did not want to be some emperor of a country. On the spur of the moment, he decided to lead his troops to return and take back the Longmen City.
