The best ring

"We are helping Lord Cai, what's wrong with that?" a general said.

"Yes, as long as we help Lord Cai, Lord Cai will not only not blame us, but will also reward us."

"But I still think that we should not act on our own. Why don't we contact Lord Cai first?"

"Yes, we can contact Lord Cai first and see what Lord Cai says."

"I would like to contact Lord Cai, but now Chen Wende has a very strict control over the city. If the news leaks out, we will all be exposed. Wouldn't that be even worse?"

......

Everyone discussed it one by one, but after discussing it for a long time, they could not come up with an effective solution, and everyone's opinions could not be unified.

In fact, this is not surprising. After all, they are all at the same level here. There is no commander-in-chief, so naturally no one can convince the crowd.

"How about this, we each do our own thing, no one interferes with each other, we take credit for our own work, and we take responsibility for any problems." Seeing that they could not reach a consensus, someone spoke up.

Everyone looked at each other and accepted the suggestion.

Those who wanted to continue to lurk and wait for Cai Cheng's order left first, and those who agreed to take the initiative stayed to continue discussing what to do.

However, the number of people who stayed was obviously less than when they were discussing. Obviously, some people gave up at the last moment.

"These cowards!" Someone among those who stayed said indignantly.

"Forget it, they go their way, and we discuss our own business."

"Yes, don't worry about them."

Although these people are all Cai Cheng's people, they may not all be of one mind. There are also many factions within the army.

Those who stayed no longer paid attention to those who left, and they began to discuss what to do.

"If we go to seize the city with so few people, it will probably be useless except for dying." One of them said.

As a member of the city defense force, it is not difficult for them to go to the top of the city wall, and they can occupy the top of the city wall before other defenders react, but there are so many of them that it is difficult to hold on until the army outside the city enters the city.

Therefore, it is not possible to seize the top of the city wall.

And it is also difficult to occupy the city gate. If these insiders go out together, there is hope that they can occupy a city gate and let the army outside the city enter the city. Unfortunately, not everyone agrees to take the initiative.

"Why don't we burn those catapults?" When everyone was thinking about how to destroy the city defense in the city and create favorable conditions for the army outside the city, someone suddenly suggested burning the catapults.

When the others heard this, their eyes lit up!

They all saw the performance of those catapults in today's battle. These catapults caused great casualties to the army outside the city, and also produced a huge deterrent force. During the charge, the soldiers were always worried that the boulders falling from the sky would fall on their heads.

Boulders are different from bows and arrows. Shields and other defensive weapons can still defend against bow and arrow attacks, but these things are completely ineffective in front of boulders. Small shields can't stop the huge impact and lethality of boulders.

"Yes, burn the catapults!"

"If we can destroy the catapults in the city, it will be much easier for Lord Cai and his men to attack the city."

"That's right! After destroying the catapults, there will be chaos in the city. At that time, we can also take the opportunity to sneak into the military supply depot and burn the supplies that have left!"

"Without military supplies, the defenders in the city can't stand it for long!"

"Let's do it!"

Everyone talked one after another, getting more and more excited, and soon reached a consensus.

Places like military supply depots and granaries are usually heavily guarded. It is very difficult for them to approach quietly. Without tokens, even if they have the identity of defenders in the city, they can't get close to these heavily guarded places.

Therefore, it is obviously very difficult to burn the arsenal and granary directly. In comparison, burning the trebuchet is much easier. Moreover, once the trebuchet is burned, the city will inevitably fall into chaos. At that time, they can do other things in the chaotic environment:

For example, burn the arsenal and granary!

With the decision, everyone immediately took action.

Because they have the identity of the garrison as a cover, they don't need to disguise themselves. They directly led the team to the location of the trebuchet.

"Who? Stop!"

As soon as these people arrived near the trebuchet, they were stopped by the soldiers guarding there.

"Brother, don't be nervous, we are one of us, one of us." The leading general said with a smile while looking at the situation of the trebuchet camp.

And the scene he saw made him very satisfied.

The trebuchets in the camp were covered with black cloth, probably because they were afraid that the trebuchets would be damaged. These black cloths made it convenient for them to set fire later.

There were not many soldiers guarding the catapult camp, which made everyone even more satisfied, because they planned to burn the catapults and continue to lurk among the garrison, so they could not expose their identities here. They wanted to kill all the soldiers in the catapult camp to silence them. The fewer people there were, the easier it would be to achieve their goal.

"What are you doing here?" Perhaps seeing that the people wearing the same clothes as them, the soldiers in the trebuchet camp relaxed their attitudes and were not as vigilant as before.

"We are here to protect the trebuchets under the order of the general." The man who just spoke said, "The general is worried that the rebels outside the city will secretly destroy these trebuchets."

As he spoke, those people walked towards the trebuchets, and the others naturally did the same as him.

"The gates are closed everywhere. How could the rebels outside the city get in?"

"Perhaps, General Chen is afraid that the rebels have internal support in the city."

"That's possible." The soldier said, "Do you have General Chen's handwritten order? I need to hold on."

"Of course I have the handwritten order."

As they said this, everyone had already approached the soldiers on duty in the trebuchet camp.

"Where is the handwritten order?" The soldier seemed to have not found anything wrong and was still asking about the handwritten order.

"Here is the order!" The general who had been talking to the soldier had come to the soldier. He suddenly drew out his sword and wanted to kill the soldier.

However, he thought that the other party was unprepared and that he would definitely kill him with this sword. However, he was shocked to find that as soon as he drew out his sword, the sword in the other party's hand had already stabbed his abdomen.

He was fast, but the other party was even faster!
