Chapter 2809 the gate is open (1/2)

People outside the city are in a complex and suspicious mood. The sky darkens and the time is getting closer.

”When it's almost midnight, there is no movement at the gate. Will the news be false, or will they fail to seize the gate?” The two generals got together again, and they didn't have the heart to rest. Instead, they kept their eyes on the direction of the city gate to see what would happen.

However, up to now, there has been no movement at all in the city gate. It is still closed tightly. There are many soldiers patrolling the city wall without any abnormality, which makes the two generals feel a little beat.

”First, don't worry. It's not yet midnight. It's a little time away. Wait and see.” Although the other general was worried, he comforted his colleagues.

In fact, the two generals attached great importance to the raid. Although they said it, they thought it was impossible for them to have an inside person. Even if there was an inside person, it was difficult to open the city gate. However, both of them were still looking forward to it.

The reason is very simple. If there are insiders and the gate can be opened from the inside, they can rush into the city at the first time. In that case, they have great hope to occupy the city. Once the city is occupied, it means that the eighth Prince wins the competition and becomes the candidate of the new emperor. As the eighth emperor, they will become the candidate Zi's men are the first to attack the city. Naturally, the benefits will not be small. The eighth prince will never forget them. Their future will be very bright.

At the same time, once they can capture the city, they will be able to hit the rebel forces heavily, which will be a big blow to the rebel forces. For a while ago, the rebel forces have been winning in consecutive battles. If they capture the city now, their morale will also be affected. Then, it will be relatively easy for the court to suppress these rebels.

So, for the public and for the private, these two generals are very hopeful. What they said on the note is true. There is really someone who can open the city gate at midnight.

If the gate can't be opened, they can't believe what Huang Feng said. They can't believe that there are only some people who haven't fought in the city. In that case, they can't attack the city. What's more, in order to make their way, the first batch of people who arrive here are cavalry. They don't have siege equipment. It will be very difficult to attack the city.

Therefore, as long as the gate is not opened as agreed, it can be said that their raid failed, and they not only failed to inflict heavy damage on the enemy, but also lost further opportunities.

So it's no surprise that the two generals are looking forward to the gate being opened.

At this time, an army was stationed at the gate of the city not far in front of the two generals. The purpose of this army was naturally to guard the city.

Wang Cheng took the initiative to attack the big prince and the third prince and took most of his elite. However, he also knew that these occupied cities were his rear base, which could not be discarded at will or carelessly. Therefore, he left a small number of elite soldiers in each city. These soldiers were divided into four gates of the city To prevent people from seizing the gate.

With these soldiers guarding the city gate and soldiers patrolling the city wall, Wang Cheng believes that his city is safe and there will be no accidents.

Under normal circumstances, it is true that the three princes did not know that their main force was no longer there, so they did not dare to attack the city rashly. With those elite troops guarding the city, there would be no danger in the city.
