“Yes!”
“Order the troops to mobilize another 50,000 troops and assemble in full force.”
“Transfer another 50,000?”
The elder smiled, “Han Qianqian is a tricky man with a suspicious nature, if our front line attacking troops suddenly pull out a large number of soldiers to the north of the city, it may cause Han Qianqian’s suspicion by suspending or weakening the attack.”
“Besides, the front-line attacking troops have been fighting for so long that they must be a bit tired. Therefore, it is better to leave such a task as attacking the city to the more energetic reserve troops.”
After hearing this explanation, the crowd complimented, “I am glad that the Elder has thought of this.”
“This is indeed a more foolproof plan.”
“We are impressed.”
“Go ahead and do it, I’ll be waiting for your good news.” The Elder was in a good mood and waved a big hand.
“Yes.”
The two cronies took orders on the spot and set off directly with their troops.
As he watched the cronies leave, the elder let out a long breath.
His subordinates were indeed right. After so many days, he had finally waited for the crucial moment when the peak would turn around.
“Oh, yes.” The elder suddenly remembered something and looked at another of his cronies: “You go and inform the elite troops entering the city and tell them that if anything happens during the battle, they should all destroy their cloths and not fall into the hands of the enemy.”
“The elder is worried that Han Qianqian has taken the cloth that our people are wearing to keep out the cold?”
The elder nodded, “Good, it is an effective means of protection against the extreme cold, and it is what Han Qianqian lacks, so we cannot send him any supplies.”
“Elder you are really cautious, this battle we drive straight into the city, I am afraid that before Han Sanchi can reflect, we have already broken into the city, driving the extreme cold invasion, what can he Han Sanchi resist us with?”
The Elder smiled: “You can’t be too careful, it’s better to be careful when dealing with such an enemy.”
“Yes, I will go and inform them now.”
With those words, the man also hurriedly chased after them.
This time, the elder finally revealed a satisfied and faint smile.
The spies in Night Sky City had been raised for many years, but when it was usually peaceful and quiet, they were not very useful, and at most they passed on some surveillance information, which was really very costly.
But today, in the nick of time, or in this impasse, it was precisely this normally least expensive detachment that broke the ice.
In a quarter of an hour’s time, the best of the 50,000 freshly selected elites were already heading straight for the north of Night Sky City.
The leaders were two of the elders’ close friends, the left commander called Du Ling and the right commander called Du Yan.
The two men’s troops had already arrived silently at the specific location in the north of the city as indicated by the secret report.
This was towards the north-west corner of the city, off the beaten track and not very visible from the front because of the walls.
“The time is almost up.” Turin said softly, “Wait for a while, once the gap is opened, I will lead the left army first.”
“f*ck you, the right army will go first.” Du Yan said discontentedly.
At this time, breaking through the city’s defences was obviously a beautiful task, after all, it was the most important battle in the entire war to achieve a breakthrough victory, and it was the first credit.
“Damn it, old man, we have worked together for so many years in front of the elders, is that so?” Turin said glumly.
“If it’s not too much you should let my right army go first.” Du Yan said.
Of course, Du Ling couldn’t give all the credit to the right army, so he thought for a while, “How about this, damn it, the left and right armies will form each other, so that no one loses.”
“How can you command them when they rush in? Will your men listen to me or will they listen to you? Although according to our rules, the left army is the main force and the right army is the support, however, such a vanguard army like charging into battle, that is also the right army’s job, I will go first, you want to eat hot, tell your men to hurry up and follow me.”
Du Ling was speechless, however, he also had to admit that what Du Yan said was indeed the normal rule within their formation as well, there was not a bit of fault.
So, if Du Yan wanted to force this, there was really nothing he could do to obstruct it.
Thinking of this, he was very depressed, but there was nothing he could do but to say, “Fine, fine, I’m not going to argue with you, the right army will go first, but I’m warning you, your right army has to be damned quick, or else I’ll kick you in the back.”
Du Yan laughed, not wanting to do any verbal arguments even though he had taken a big advantage, and almost at that moment, a strange noise suddenly rang out from the city wall.
The two men were delighted, they knew very well that this was obviously a scout from the city coming over to help them open the gap.
