Chapter 285 Sneaking into Suzhou
Ye Anlan felt that if Xie Yuan hadn't been very tolerant of his subordinates, these people wouldn't have the guts to drag him and insist on making him listen to his own words.
This kind of master-slave atmosphere is what she likes, and it indirectly proves that she is indeed right about Xie Yuan.
She took Yang Xiaotao and others to check everything, and then, under Xie Yuan's signal, met with the one hundred selected Xie Yuan's personal guards in advance.
After getting acquainted with everyone and handing out all the tools and weapons, she took everyone to have a simple meal.
Because there was still a secret operation at night, Ye Anlan asked everyone to go back to rest after dinner.
It wasn't until the appointed time at the beginning of time that Ye Anlan was fully armed and brought Yang Xiaotao, Zheng Fengshou, and 20 other her personal guards to join Xie Yuan's 100 personal guards.
Everyone met at the agreed place, then quietly left the barracks, and rushed all the way towards the upper reaches of the Tuohe River.
Walking to a shoal about 600 to 700 meters away from Suzhou, Ye Anlan and the others stepped into the water at a place where Xie Yuan's personal guards had already stepped on under the banner of "building dams", and swam to the direction of Suzhou City together.
At the same time, Xie Yuan in the barracks has also taken action.
He summoned his confidant advisers and generals including Li Jing overnight, and asked them to order troops to go out and be ready to support Ye Anlan and the others to attack the city at any time.
Li Jing had already heard about their overall plan from Xie Yuan and Ye Anlan, but it wasn't until now that the others felt a solid sense of "Oh, so my lord has not lost his mind".
As soon as they thought this, everyone suddenly felt no pain in their backs, no pain in their legs, and they didn't feel that their heads were throbbing.
Their eyes were shining brightly, and they rolled up their sleeves full of energy and went to work.
Xie Yuan shook his head helplessly, "These guys are really"
Li Jing smiled, "They are also worried about you."
It's better now, they know that Xie Yuan has other plans, so they will no longer suspect that Ye Anlan has lowered his head for Xie Yuan.
To be honest, Li Jing had to spend a lot of effort not to argue for Ye Anlan when she always heard her colleagues maliciously speculate about her sweetheart.
Besides, Ye Anlan, who had finally washed her reputation passively, led a hundred people down the river, and soon swam to the water area blocked by the iron fence.
The iron fence is very thick, and working in the water is not as convenient as it is on land. Ye Anlan tried it out and found that if she just wraps her hands around it and pulls it hard, then except for her and Yang Xiaotao, everyone else can only touch the iron fence. Bend it slightly.
But if other tools such as axes and thunderbolts are used, there will be a lot of movement, and the enemy soldiers who are responsible for guarding the river will undoubtedly be alarmed by them.
At that time, those people will definitely send signals immediately to attract more enemies to deal with them.
In order to avoid being outnumbered, Ye Anlan gave up using tools.
She gestured to get everyone to let go of their vigilance, while she and Yang Xiaotao started to pull out the thick iron rods like pulling a carrot.
Both ends of the iron rods were fixed inside the city wall. In order to facilitate exertion, the two of them directly stepped on the other iron rods, not counting, and a rope was firmly tied around their waists.
The other end of the rope was held by a dozen young and strong Xie Yuan's personal guards. Every time Ye Anlan and Yang Xiaotao made gestures, they would hold the rope tightly and help them stabilize their bodies.
Both of them have great strength, and it is convenient for them to use their footholds. Although it is difficult for them to pull up the iron rod, they will not be like other people, who cannot shake the iron rod even if they try their best.
With their unremitting efforts, the iron rods blocked under the city wall were pulled out one by one in just a quarter and a half.
Xie Yuan's personal guards were all dumbfounded, it was the first time they had seen someone with such strength, especially, these two were women!
In people's inherent cognition, women have always been synonymous with frailty and softness. Even those women in rural areas who need to go to the fields with men, their overall strength is still not as good as that of men.
But just today, right here, the inherent cognition of Xie Yuan's personal guards was broken.
They were shocked at first, then disbelieved, and finally lay down flat with numb faces.
Forget it, they don’t get entangled anymore, anyway, even if they rub their eyes blind, the picture they see will not change in any way_(:з」∠)_
Thinking about this, everyone's expressions finally became normal.
By the time Ye Anlan gestured for them to follow her into the city, everyone happened to have returned to their usual expressionless and serious faces.
They raised their vigilance, swam quickly to the sides and front of Ye Anlan, and used practical actions to prevent Ye Anlan from rushing into the city first.
This is what Xie Yuan told them in advance before they set off.
In Xie Yuan's mind, he was taking advantage of his status as a senior by asking Ye Anlan and Yang Xiaotao to help deal with those iron fences.
No matter how you say it, Ye Anlan is also the master of the Ye family. No matter how capable she is, no matter how skilled and daring she is, Xie Yuan will not be careless enough to really treat her as his subordinate.
This small detail, Yang Xiaotao and Zheng Fengshou didn't care at all, but Ye Anlan and Wen Liuniang understood Xie Yuan's intention in an instant.
The corners of Ye Anlan's lips raised slightly, feeling warm, but Wen Liuniang secretly sighed that Xie Yuan is indeed a direct descendant of the Xie family. This precise and skillful technique is like eating and drinking. It's like an innate talent and instinct.
Protected by Xie Yuan's personal guards, Ye Anlan and the others quietly swam into the city of Suzhou from the entrance of the cave without the iron fence, making as little noise as possible.
In order to prevent their figures from being seen, everyone took a big breath and swam as far as possible.
It wasn't until the more than one hundred people in the team entered the river in the city that everyone quickly emerged and went ashore under Ye Anlan's signal.
The enemy soldiers who were in charge of guarding the entrance of the Tuohe River discovered Ye Anlan and the others immediately, but before they could warn their comrades, the twenty or so people headed by Ye Anlan had tacitly assigned one of them to solve the problem. The enemy generals in charge here.
Slowly put the corpses of the enemy soldiers on the ground, and under the leadership of Ye Anlan, everyone quickly attacked and killed them in the direction of the city gate.
There were so many defenders at the city gate, Ye Anlan didn't lead people to charge immediately, but threw two large packets of medicine powder over there.
The paper bag containing the powder was shot through by her with a bow and arrow in mid-air, and the silver-gray powder was scattered all over the face of the enemy soldiers who rushed out after hearing the movement.
