Chapter 227 Run away

During the process of shooting an arrow, Ye Anlan's hand didn't stay still steadily all the time, but shook slightly all the time.

People who didn't know saw it, and thought that she was doing this because of the weight and reaction force of the crossbow, but they didn't know that Ye Anlan was just a little greedy.

She saw that there were two generals wearing better armor beside Feng Yi, so she wanted to use the Zhuge Liannu, which could shoot ten bursts, to shoot those two together.

It's a pity that her ambition is still not satisfied┓(`)┏

The lieutenant who she regarded as the second shooting target, the moment she saw Ye Anlan shoot an arrow at Feng Yi, he immediately crawled towards the ground.

If Ye Anlan hadn't immediately turned his killing intent on him, then he would definitely be ridiculed for being timid and afraid of death as before.

But when Feng Yi and the other lieutenant were shot dead by Ye Anlan in an instant, the cowardice and fear of death of this lieutenant immediately became iron proof that he had planned ahead and had foresight.

In addition, he is now the highest-ranking military general in Wenshang, so the soldiers guarding the city naturally pinned their hopes on this man.

However, this person had already been terrified by Ye Anlan. He covered his head with the helmet shot off, and his legs were so trembling that he couldn't stand up.

His confidant guard ran over immediately and reached out to help him up, but he motioned for him to help him sit behind the battlements.

Commanding the soldiers to defend the city, and stabilizing the morale of the army that was thrown into chaos by the death of the general, what does this have to do with him?

He just wants to live well and enjoy the glory and wealth.

He is not afraid of others laughing at him for being timid, so what if he is timid? At least because of his timidity, he has always lived longer than others around him in this troubled world.

Leaning his back against the battlements and panting for a while, the man finally calmed down his heart that almost jumped out of his chest.

But appeasement does not mean that he will take over the important task of defending the city from now on. He wandered around, and among the grassroots officers around him, he chose one who seemed to be calm and rational, "You, take charge of the command." .Remember, be sure to guard Wenshang."

As for himself, he said, "The general is not feeling well, so I'll go back home to see a doctor first."

After saying this, he bowed his waist in a hurry, escorted by his confidant guards, all the way down the city wall.

The soldiers who were still on the city wall looked at each other in blank dismay. None of them were fools, so they could tell that this man wanted to be a deserter.

Of the three generals, one ran away and two died, so is there any point for them to continue to defend?

Listening to Ye Anlan's orderly and resounding persuasion from the soldiers outside the city, these soldiers who were directly dropped by their immediate superiors were confused and hesitated.

At the same time, the soldiers in charge of guarding the city gate were completely thrown into disarray.

It wasn't that Yang Xiaotao had already started smashing the city gates, but that some civilians who had been captured sneaked down the city wall with their friends and relatives while the regular army was in a mess.

The soldiers guarding the city gate saw that they were acting suspiciously, so they leaned over to listen to what they were saying to the other people. As a result, they heard a bad news that made their hands and feet feel cold, and they were flustered and short of breath.

The people who were forced to come to defend the city were afraid that these innocent people would vent their anger on them when they woke up, so they rushed into the nearest narrow alley while they were in a daze.

They walked through the narrow alley, turned around again and again, and soon disappeared completely like fish entering the water.

Following them, the lieutenant general, who narrowly escaped death, was also guarded by his confidant guards, and hurried down the city wall.

He acted as if there was an evil spirit chasing the road behind him, he didn't even look at the dumbfounded soldiers, he just hit his horse and left with the guards.

Now that he is gone, even if everyone is unwilling to believe that General Feng and the other lieutenant general have been killed, they can only force themselves to face the reality.

The courageous one even took advantage of the chaos and sneaked onto the city wall. Then, they saw with their own eyes that their General Feng and another lieutenant general had fallen on their backs and died on the city wall.

These people's hands and feet were weak, but they walked on as lightly as possible.

The other people who were anxiously waiting for them to bring back the exact news, at the moment they came down, also saw the bad news and panic from their terrified expressions.

After a brief but almost breathless silence, someone boldly spoke up, "Both General Feng and General Lin are dead, and General Wu ran away again, so let's"

He was halfway through speaking, but suddenly there was a loud bang in his ear.

Everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look, but saw that the city gate was shaking violently.

At the same time, Yang Xiaotao outside the city was saying to Ye Anlan with regret, "It's a pity, it's just a hole."

She has already used a lot of force, but the stone she chose is obviously not suitable. It is too small to break through the thick wooden city gate.

Ye Anlan didn't care, "I've already shot that Feng Yi, and the morale of the rebel army in the city is already in disarray. If you keep smashing, even if you can't break it, they will be scared by your strange power."

Yang Xiaotao scratched her face, picked up the stone resignedly, and continued to scare people.

Ye Anlan quietly watched the soldiers under Wei Zhen shouting and persuading them to surrender, as if she had already done everything she should do in this war.

The fact is indeed the case. With Ye Anlan's good start, Wei Zhen and Yang Xiaotao quickly coaxed and frightened the rebels in the city.

About a quarter of an hour later, the rebels in the city opened the pitted city gate that had been smashed by Yang Xiaotao, put down their weapons in disgrace, and became Ye Anlan's prisoner.

As usual, Ye Anlan sent people to search for the wounded and settle the corpses, and then brought a small group of elites into the city to raid the mansion of the cowardly general who had run away.

As for the other two generals who were shot dead by her, because they still had family members in the city, Ye Anlan did not extend his wealth-enhancing claws to their mansions.

Again, in Ye Anlan's war aesthetics, there is a rule that ordinary people should never be involved.

Of course, just to be cautious, Ye Anlan didn't forget to arrange for people to monitor the two families around the clock.

Although she has been assassinated frequently since she came out of Mengshan Mountain, and now her mentality towards such things is completely "don't bite if there are too many lice, and don't worry if there are too many debts", but Ye Anlan is not afraid of being able to control and eliminate hidden dangers. Will deliberately choose to indulge.

In particular, she will go to Diayutai, Peixian, and Fengxian to turn Shi Rong's father, who has never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, into a complete pauper. The family members of Rong's father's old department acted casually.
