The Era of Generals

Chapter 862 Where are people?

Outside Tianhong City.

"Boss, something is wrong!"

In a secret post, the scouts who had just returned from their shift always felt that something was wrong, so they reported to their superiors.

"What's wrong?"

He Ji is the leader of this scouting team, he couldn't help but get nervous when he heard this.

Not long ago, a Xuanjia soldier ran out of Tianhong City and told them that spies from the Qingyang Empire had infiltrated the city.

Is this worth it?

Regardless of whether this is true or not, it is worth paying attention to.

So He Ji asked Feng Lei to report to Huang Ren.

At the same time, he is also afraid that this is He Wei and others' plan.

After all, not long ago, Huang Ren had sent someone to tell him that Yan Xukai had slipped away from him.

The importance of Yan Xukai to the Xuanjia elite is self-evident, and he is the person Huang Ren ordered to focus on monitoring.

And Feng Lei even said that Yan Xukai also came back with those people from the Qingyang Empire.

This made He Ji even more vigilant.

But he couldn't just rush into Tianhong City to investigate.

Before Huang Ren left, He Wei led his people to occupy Tianhong City and drove out all the soldiers of the Bailie Empire who stayed in Tianhong City.

So far, they can only monitor the actions of this group of people outside Hongcheng that day in the sun and rain.

And He Ji knew very well that the person who asked He Wei to do this was Yan Xukai who was taken away by General Huang Renhuang.

Now that this person has actually returned, could it be that they are going to throw themselves into the arms of the Qingyang Empire again?

It's not impossible!

And originally on the outskirts of Tianhong City, there were people from the Qingyang Empire, didn't they?

The news of Feng Lei really made He Ji nervous.

But the other party is Yan Xukai!

If it is this person, there is no guarantee that this matter is not the other party's plan.

So in order to be on the safe side, he sent the two strongest scouts to escort Feng Lei to Huang Ren.

The reason why he only sent two people was because he knew that his troops were not enough right now, and the troops were very single, only scouts who were good at lurking and spying.

Then it is a good choice to keep more troops in his hands, and he will be able to deal with any changes in Tianhong City.

After all, He Ji didn't have all the faith in Feng Lei, and even more suspicion was that Feng Lei might have been deliberately sent by Yan Xukai to distract them from their sight.

After all, the Xuanjia elites have been in Mohe Province for five years. He Ji has seen with his own eyes, or personally experienced, how united these two thousand people are, they are like a monolith!

Over the years, there are not a few high-level empire officials who want to divide these people, in order to be able to firmly grasp this sharp-edged army in their own hands.

But no one succeeded!

So in such a united force, the probability of traitors appearing in it...

He didn't know that although Feng Lei was upset, how could he tell a stranger about his mental journey one by one?

Even if he wanted to say it, it should be said by Huang Ren.

Therefore, it is inevitable for He Ji to deviate.

However, it was precisely because of this deviation that he thought it safe, so only three people, including Feng Lei, were rushing to Huang Ren's side.

This is no problem at all, who would have thought that there would be ambushes on their only way?

You must know that if Feng Lei really left the city in a fit of anger, then his actions were an accident, and no one could have predicted it.

Since it is impossible to predict, how to deploy in advance?

He Ji is very confident that under the surveillance of himself and others, no one in Tianhong City can escape their sight and go away, so there is no possibility that someone will rush to kill Feng Lei before him.

What's more, the area outside is vast, how can it be so easy to intercept and kill?

And then all of this is Yan Xukai's trick.

He sent Feng Lei out of Decheng to pretend to be a rebel, not to deceive himself for fun, but for a more ulterior purpose, to go to Huang Ren to trick Huang Ren.

That being the case, why intercept him?

Afraid that Feng Lei won't see Huang Ren?

Regardless of the possibility, He Ji felt that it was more important for him to guard the outside of Tianhong City.

Although the inexplicable chaotic battle last night made He Ji believe that someone had sneaked into Tianhong City. .

Now that one of his subordinates came back to report, He Ji straightened his face and immediately asked, "What did you find?"

"They seem to..."

The subordinates were also not sure, hesitatingly said: "Just now I saw that there are personnel mobilized at the top of the city, and they seem to be gathering troops."

His uncertainty is because there are too few Xuanjia elites in Tianhong City.

There are only over 2,000 people in total, and it is indeed a bit reluctant to guard such a large city.

So even in normal times, there were few people on the top of Hongcheng that day.

It's just that with the strength of Xuanjia's elite, no one dared to underestimate the scattered defenders. He Ji did not lose his wits and ordered his scouts to act as siege soldiers temporarily.

Now in the empty city, it feels that there are many fewer people, which makes the subordinates feel puzzled.

"manpower shuffling?"

These four words are extremely disturbing to He Ji's nerves, and they are also in line with his own suspicions.

As a scout commander, He Ji has a lot of experience and is able to make a simple analysis of the collected information.

really!

The corner of his mouth grinned, that guy Feng Lei was really weird, as soon as he left, there was a change in Tianhong City, presumably Yan Xukai wanted to use Feng Lei's news to mobilize his troops and make some moves.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: "Take me to have a look, hurry up!"

The subordinates also knew that the matter was serious, so they didn't dare to be negligent, and turned back to lead He Ji to go outside.

They are located in a dense forest outside the official road of Tianhong City, where there is a small cave, which can just be used for them to shelter and shelter from the wind and rain.

During this period of time, He Ji and the others have also lived a life of savages who drink blood and drink blood, which is not to say miserable.

Right now, He Ji really hoped that He Wei would dare to make some noise, so that they would have a chance to attack Tianhong City and get General Huang back as soon as possible.

The two of them got out of the cave, and the scout led them through the dense forest for a while, and then they were in a very hidden place, looking towards the direction of Tianhong City.

Sure enough, when He Ji looked at it, the defenders on the top of the city were too sparse!

Usually, you can see a defender every two or three parapets, but now, you can only see one after seven or eight parapets.

What about people?
