Chapter 292 The Jingyang City Is Taken (Part Two) (1/2)

Seeing that Prince Jing was quite confident, Zhang Qi felt a little relieved. Everything would be fine with the presence of Prince Jing.

Prince Jing turned around and called his shadow guard out. He said with a smile, ”go and fetch my jade flute.”

Zhang Qi did not know why, but said nothing. Watching the shadow guard leaving in a hurry, and soon after, Prince Jing took the jade flute here. He caressed the jade flute with a smile, ”let's go to the east wall to receive the army of the state of Xia.”

By the time they arrived, the city had almost been withdrawn by Prince Jing. Only a few secret guards with higher level of martial arts wore the armor of the city guards and stood on the city wall.

As he looked at the pitch black walls, Xia Houyan smiled and said, ”military counsellor, we are finally in Jingyang city.” But there was not a trace of joy in his eyes, and he frowned at the big words ”Jingyang city”. She said: ”although we deceived Qi Lang with a deceptive trick, but Qi Lang should have heard that we were heading for Jingyang city. Prince Jing is a general in the battlefield. He fought many wars and is very capable. He should not be unaware of our whereabouts, but why, I didn't expect that they was ready to fight with the enemy in Jingyang city! ”

Liu Yinfeng also looked at Jingyang City, and said calmly, ”I'm afraid it's a trick of Prince Jing.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of the jade flute, which was as ethereal as the shadow of a man, whimpering, sounding somewhat weird.

”What's this?” With his eyes wide open, Xia Houyan looked into the darkness, where only two lanterns hung on the gate of the city.

Liu Yinfeng meditated for a moment and then said, ”I remember a story I saw on the military tactics. It's called the empty city trick. We just talked about the battle between the two armies. There was no army at all. The strategist had his soldiers retreat from the city, but he went to the tower with his Guqin and sang the song with him, which cheated the hostile guard. ”

A lantern was lit and a figure was standing on the wall in the distance. A black figure raised his hand and placed it beside his face. It seemed that the person was blowing the jade flute. The faint sound of the jade flute must come from there.

”Empty City trick?” Xia Houyan bit his lips and snorted, ”he is so bold to play the jade flute on the city wall in front of 400 thousand soldiers. I told you that Prince Jing must know we were here, but i didn't expect that he would make such a wonderful move. Since it is an empty city trick, I must go and have a look. Make a mystery of it and wait for me. I will destroy this Jingyang city and take Luo Qingyan's life. ”

However, Liu Yinfeng shook his head and stopped him, ”Your Highness, please don't do that.”

Puzzled, Xia Houyan turned his head and asked, ”councillor, you said there were no soldiers in the city. Then what are we afraid of?”
