EBE Chapter 194 Chaos at Daxiguan
Chapter 194 Chaos at Daxiguan
Du Chong immediately instructed several of his old comrades to conceal themselves as much as possible and quietly evacuate from the crowd. They quickly arrived at an abandoned village not far from Daxiguan, which became their temporary camp.
"I didn't expect that Sun Ting would actually come! I'm afraid we won't have a chance to get through!" At this time, someone sighed helplessly. They stayed near Daxiguan for several days and had not been able to find a chance to get through. Now Sun Ting's arrival will undoubtedly make the defense tighter.
"We must find a way to reach Henan County!" Unlike Yuan Quan and others, Du Chong never had any hope of returning to the court. Therefore, he hoped to disrupt the entire Dakun Dynasty, after all, this dynasty had long been corrupt.
"Then what should we do? It's not easy to pass through the Daxiguan!" someone said worriedly.
"If it really doesn't work, we'll just go around it! At worst we can stay on the mountain for a while! Let's go and see how much food and water we have left!" Du Chong also understood that with just a few thousand people they could not capture this pass.
"General Du! The gate of Daxiguan is open!" At this time, a soldier ran back excitedly to report.
"What's going on?" Du Chong immediately stood up and asked hurriedly.
"Daxiguan is located at the city gate, and they are going to distribute porridge to us!" said the soldier with a hint of joy.
Everyone was surprised after hearing this. This was a godsend! But they also knew that there must be a trick. Du Chong decided to lead the team to investigate.
They approached the city gate cautiously and saw several soldiers distributing fish food to the people in line. Du Chong noticed that the soldiers did not look nervous, but rather nonchalant.
"This may be a trap." Du Chong whispered to his comrades, "But we can't let this opportunity go. We can pretend to accept charity and sneak into the city."
So they decided to split into several groups, pretending to be ordinary refugees, and slowly approached the city gate. When they received the hot porridge, Du Chong found that there were many stones mixed in the porridge.
"Oh no, there are stones in this porridge!" Du Chong was shocked, but he remained calm on the surface. He quickly pretended nothing had happened and started drinking immediately. He looked around and saw that everyone had eaten stones. The refugees who had been hungry for a long time didn't care about it. They didn't need to bite the porridge anyway and just swallowed it.
What made him frown was that the soldiers who followed him had been providing them with food all this time. When those soldiers ate the stones in the porridge, some of them had already vomited them out.
Some soldiers were of course more cautious and swallowed the porridge directly after looking at the situation around them. But most of the soldiers obviously couldn't finish that portion of porridge.
Du Chong also knew that the situation was not good. He was afraid that Sun Ting was deliberately testing whether there were any of their people among these refugees.
"Tell the brothers to prepare for battle immediately! If it's too dangerous, evacuate here immediately! We have been exposed!" Du Cong finished the bowl of porridge and immediately instructed an old brother next to him.
The veterans who came with him from the Northeast reacted quickly and immediately gave orders to those people to prepare for battle.
At this time, Sun Ting, who had been paying attention to the situation here on the city wall, smiled and looked at the people who vomited the porridge.
"Did you see that? Arrest those people who vomited the porridge immediately! Interrogate them thoroughly. There may be other rebels among them!" Sun Ting had never thought that there were 5000 rebels among the tens of thousands of refugees. Some of them were people who had received assistance from Yuan Quan and others.
All he could think of was that Yuan Quan and the others would send some people to Daxiguanzhong as spies!
Du Chong's order had been passed down layer by layer. Those who knew that their identities were exposed entered the crowd without hesitation. They deliberately made the entire refugee crowd chaotic. With this, they hurriedly left the crowd. This is the people sent by Sun Ting to catch these people, and they returned empty-handed. After all, they were just watching from a distance on the city wall, and when people got in chaos, they really couldn't tell who they wanted to catch. It has even caused chaos among these tens of thousands of refugees. Du Cong took this opportunity to lead his men and squeezed towards the unclosed city gate of Daxiguan. The tens of thousands of chaotic refugees suddenly squeezed to the position of the city gate. This made the soldiers guarding the city gate at a loss for a moment. After all, with tens of thousands of people, Sister Ping and them couldn't close the city gate. Du Cong's people entered Daxiguan smoothly.
"Send someone down quickly! We must take back the city gate?" Sun Ting didn't know why these people suddenly became chaotic.
Du Chong and others took this opportunity to lead their people into Daxiguan. They did not stop at all, and rushed into Henan County with a large group of people. While rushing, they shouted loudly that only in Henan County could they get food. This made the refugees rush forward one after another to follow him.
Before Sun Ting could react, they rushed through the Daxiguan Pass!
"Damn it! We failed at the last hurdle!" Sun Ting had never dealt with these refugees before. After all, these people were not enemies. It was impossible to kill them. He could only order the soldiers to hunt them down and capture as many as possible. After they were captured, they would be sent back to Northwest County! They could be killed but they could not be kept here.
