Then the Tujue troops to the north saw the troops from the Xin side starting to collapse and imdiately retreated.
The eastern troops had just broken through the gates of Ren City and were about to rush in when they realized that both the western and northern troops had retreated.
Sensing trouble, they also turned and ran.
For a mont, the Shuofang Army defending the city walls fought desperately, but they couldn’t understand what was happening, only seeing the Tujue people they had struggled against bravely inhale deeply and then jump down from the high city walls.
At this mont, the Tujue people were in a state of panic.
And the Shuofang Army, with faces full of confusion.
“Did we…
win?”
“Seems like we did, but not through combat.”
“Then what’s the deal with these Tujue people?
They had a hard ti getting up here, and now they’re retreating?”
As the Tujue main force began to retreat, the Lingwu Army, descending from Broken Dragon Mountain, began to pursue and kill from behind.
At this mont, the ambush troops just happened to run into the thirty thousand troops Sharlobi had just sent out to support the siege.
The two forces collided in the dark, and nurous Tujue people began to fight each other.
Only halfway through the battle did they realize they were fighting their own people, and then the confused troops began to fall back.
Sharlobi had never imagined that, despite his use of intelligence, he would still be defeated.
It seems that in order to achieve victory in war, one needs not only wisdom but perhaps, also a certain amount of luck.
Indeed!
My father, the Khan, had encountered countless dangers in his lifeti of campaigning, and the reason he could always turn danger into safety must be because of good luck!
And I, the Great Khan of the Tujue, how could my luck possibly be bad?
On this journey, I heard that the Lingwu Army and the Shuofang Army don’t get along well.
Perhaps after tonight, when the Lingwu Army enters the city and conflicts arise between the two sides, it will give an opportunity!
Thinking this, Sharlobi suddenly realized, his Qi Luck had arrived!
anwhile, in the Tujue camp, many lay in their tents, faintly hearing won’s voices whispering outside.
“Hurry up and pack your things.
I just heard soone report to the Great Khan that the other four routes of our five Tujue armies have all retreated, leaving only our route.”
“Can it be?
Are we the only route left?
Doesn’t that an all of the Great Sui’s troops are going to co and besiege us?”
“Exactly!
That’s why I expect the Great Khan will soon announce that the other four armies retreated without orders, and then we will retreat too.”
“Then I’ll pack my clothes right away so that I won’t be delayed.”
This kind of conversation was overhead in many parts of the Tujue camp.
And since the speakers were won, and aside from the Khan’s tents, there were no other won in camp, everyone was thoroughly convinced that the other four routes of the five armies had retreated, so they too would soon be doing the sa.
Furthermore, that night within the Tujue camp, flas rose high, nurous siege engines were destroyed, and provisions were burned.
Although the Tujue people quickly discovered and salvaged much of the provisions, for so reason, morale seed to have dissipated even further.
At this ti, in Ren City, the Lingwu Army had finally entered.
Inside the Governor Mansion of Ren City, Changsun Bubai entered the main hall with his n.
Seeing Changsun Bubai appear, both the Governor and many of the Shuofang Army generals were startled.
“Changsun Bubai, why have you co?”
Changsun Bubai did not respond to the general who had asked the question but instead walked straight to the seat of honor and sat down.
Bai Dushu, who was following closely beside him, let out a cold laugh and countered, “If we didn’t co, who would defend Ren City?
Rely on i Fei, or on you?”
The Shuofang Army generals, seeing that the person who spoke was an unfamiliar young man with a fair complexion, were furious and said, “Who are you to talk to like that?
I was fighting the Tujue when you were probably still nowhere to be found?”
Bai Dushu imdiately gave a bow with his hands together and said, “I am Bai Dushu.
I apologize for my rudeness just now.
Please forgive .”
Seeing this young man suddenly softening his tone, the other was about to reprimand him again, but then it dawned on him that this was none other than Bai Dushu!
The Bai Dushu who had been defending the Lingwu Army camp and then led a team of archers to kill the Tujue Khan, Wugu Li?
At that mont, the Shuofang Army generals imdiately shut their mouths.
As more Lingwu Army generals entered, the Governor of Ren City knew that the city had been his domain, then i Fei’s after the Shuofang Army arrived.
Now, the rulers of Ren City were the Lingwu Army.
Changsun Bubai glanced at everyone present and said in a cold tone, “From now on, in Ren City, there is no distinction between the Shuofang Army and the Lingwu Army, only our Great Sui’s troops.
Gentlen, any objections?”
So Shuofang Army generals naturally realized that this was equivalent to being overthrown by the Lingwu Army.
Yet, at today’s eting, not even i Fei was present.
Let alone i Fei, several other high-ranking generals were also absent.
It was not hard to guess what had happened.
At this point, Zhang San walked in with a few Martial Artists, bowing to Military Envoy Changsun and reported, “Military Envoy Changsun, the Town Martial Office received a report last night of Martial Artists committing insubordination and murder, killing the southern city guard of Ren City, Tong Piyan, and even more soldiers.
We have now concluded our investigation.”
Hearing this, the Shuofang Army generals finally understood how the Lingwu Army had entered.
“Tell us, what exactly happened?”
“Tong Piyan colluded with the Tujue, and several of his trusted aides turned out to be Tujue in disguise.
So Martial Artists beca aware of this and joined forces to assassinate Tong Piyan and others last night.”
