The best ring

When Luo Yue and Chen Wende arrived with their people, they were stubbornly intercepted by the defenders at the city gate, and the two sides fought instantly.

Luo Yue and others understood that these defenders were Cai Cheng's people. At that moment, they did not show any mercy and immediately surrounded these people. However, Cai Cheng and others also got a chance to escape. Luo Yue Although the others were impatient, they could only watch as Cai Cheng and others quickly fled.

"Damn it, it was just a little bit close!"

After the battle at the city gate ended, Luo Yue stood at the city gate, gritting her teeth as she looked at the direction in which Cai Cheng and others had disappeared.

"Cai Cheng has been the Minister of the Ministry of War for many years. He naturally has many connections and back-up people. It is normal for him to escape from His Majesty's siege." Chen Wende consoled him.

"I also know this. His Majesty has said before that although Cai Cheng is in the city, it is not easy to kill him." Luo Yue said, "It's just a pity to watch him slip away from you."

If Cai Cheng can be killed, although it may not be able to completely quell the rebellion, after all, once the rebels rise up, there will be no turning back. Even without Cai Cheng, as long as they don't want to be settled by Empress Wu Yaqiu, they will definitely carry out the rebellion. Carry on to the end.

However, without Cai Cheng, it would undoubtedly be much easier to suppress this rebellion.

"Cai Cheng will leave it alone and take over the remaining two city gates first." Chen Wende said: "Cai Cheng's defenders in the city will definitely not be the only ones in front of them. Before the rebels arrive, we must The city's defenders are in control."

"Yes." Luo Yue nodded. She had not forgotten what Wu Ya told her.

What surprised Luo Yue and Chen Wende was that the subsequent process of taking over the city gate went very smoothly. No one resisted, or even refuted or doubted.

Luo Yue was very satisfied with successfully taking over the four city gates. However, Chen Wende frowned slightly.

"General Chen, what's wrong?" Luo Yue asked.

"It went very smoothly." Chen Wende said.

"Isn't it going well? The four major gates of the capital are now under our control. When the rebels attack the city, it will be easier to defend the city." Luo Yue said.

"Smooth is good, but this process is too smooth." Chen Wende said: "With Cai Cheng's influence in the army, there must be many of his people in the guarding army of the capital. It would be a big deal if these people jumped out now. Fortunately, just like the team guarding the gate before, if their identities are revealed now, we can still kill them. We are afraid that they will hide their identities and lie dormant. When the time comes, once the two sides start fighting, they will suddenly take action. Then, This city is in danger."

Although Chen Wende had always been a low-level general before, his knowledge was not bad, and he immediately saw the key.

There are tens of thousands of troops guarding the capital, and there must be Cai Cheng's people among them. The rebels outside the city are about to arrive, and the time left for them is simply not enough to distinguish Cai Cheng's direct descendants from the tens of thousands of people. .

Luo Yue's expression changed when she heard Chen Wende's words, and she subconsciously asked, "What should we do now?"

"There is no good way." Chen Wende shook his head and said: "We can only be more careful and pay attention to the troops in the city. Once Cai Cheng's people are exposed, they will be eradicated immediately."

However, both Chen Wende and Luo Yue knew that this was difficult. Since the other party had chosen to lie dormant, they would not reveal their identity easily. They would only wait for the critical moment when the rebels attacked the city to reappear and fight with the troops outside the city. The inside should be in harmony with the outside.

Knowing this, Luo Yue and Chen Wende felt a little heavy. The battle to defend the capital was not optimistic.

"It would be great if the Lord were here. He must have a way." Wu Fan's appearance suddenly appeared in Luo Yue's mind.

Luo Yue had extraordinary trust in Wu Fan. In her opinion, Wu Fan could not be overcome by any problem.

"You mean, Mr. Wu?" Chen Wende asked.

"Yes." Luo Yue nodded vigorously. When she mentioned Wu Fan, her eyes seemed to be shining.

Although she and Wu Fan haven't seen each other for a while, she is always thinking about Wu Fan. Although she is now the captain of Wu Ya's personal guard, even the ministers in the court must be polite when they see her. That's polite, but in Luo Yue's heart, being the captain of Wu Ya's personal bodyguard is not as good as following Wu Fan and being Wu Fan's personal bodyguard.

If possible, she just wants to stay with Wu Fan, do things for Wu Fan, and protect Wu Fan's safety.

"I have heard Master Wu's name from His Majesty's mouth more than once before, but it's a pity that I have never had the chance to meet him," Chen Wende said.

It was indeed not the first time that Chen Wende heard Wu Fan's name. He heard Wu Fan's name more than once in Wu Ya's mouth, and Wu Ya also had great trust in Wu Fan, which made Chen Wende feel more confident about this person. Mr. Wu, whom I had never seen before, was very curious.

Before, when Chen Wende was promoted by Wu Ya, Wu Fan had already led his army to Shanling Pass for support, so Chen Wende had never met Wu Fan.

"You will meet soon." Luo Yue said: "Your Majesty has written to your Majesty to ask for help. Your Majesty will be back soon. As long as you come back, the crisis in Fengyu City will be resolved!"

Luo Yue was full of trust in Wu Fan as always.

However, Chen Wende is not as optimistic as Luo Yue. In his opinion, no matter how powerful Wu Fan is, he is only one person. Shanling Pass is a border pass, and Wu Fan cannot bring back all the defenders there. Even if Wu Fan rushes back, It may not be able to resolve the crisis in Wind and Rain City.

On the surface, Fengyu City is about to be surrounded by more than 200,000 troops, which is already very dangerous.

However, Chen Wende knows that what is more dangerous is actually the reaction of the ministers and people in the city after the capital is surrounded. Wu Ya has just ascended the throne and her foundation is unstable. She is also a woman. At that time, it is hard to say how many people in the city will firmly support Wu Ya. Even if Cai Cheng is no longer in the city, there is still no guarantee that there will be no accidents in the city.

"You guard the city gate here, and I will take over the army in the city." Chen Wende did not attack Luo Yue. With a powerful enemy at hand, he felt that it was better to remain optimistic and there was no need to attack Luo Yue.

"Yeah." Luo Yue nodded.

The two have different tasks, so it is naturally impossible to act together all the time. The city gates have been taken over everywhere, and Chen Wende should do his own thing. His task is not easier than Luo Yue.

However, Cai Cheng has left, and Cai Cheng's people have chosen to lie dormant. I think Chen Wende's takeover process will not be too difficult.

While Wu Ya and the others were preparing for the upcoming war, Wu Fan was eating and drinking in Moonlight City and having a great time.

With delicious food to eat, wine to drink, and people flattering him and making him laugh, Wu Fan was indeed very comfortable.
