In the famine, others ate Guanyin soil, but he had space to build a farm.

Chapter 128 Zhang Shan Falls into a Trap

Chen Dong's eyes swept across the figures lying in the pool of blood. Although he felt a little sad, he didn't have the extra time to sympathize or pity them. He took a deep breath, calmed down his inner turmoil, and then quickened his pace and rushed towards the location of General Liu.

When Chen Dong finally walked in front of General Liu, he immediately stopped, bowed deeply, clasped his hands together, and smiled humbly. His voice was full of respect and obedience: "General Liu, I am Chen Dong, and I am here to welcome you!"

However, General Liu was not moved at all. He glanced at Chen Dong coldly, with a mocking arc on his lips: "Humph, I don't deserve it. Lord Chen, I'm still waiting for you to open the city gate." There was a hint of dissatisfaction and blame in his voice, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with the fact that Chen's father and son had not been able to open the city gate.

Chen Dong's face flashed with embarrassment when he heard this. He quickly explained, "General Liu, I'm really sorry. We had already opened the city gates to welcome your army as agreed. However, no one expected that they had prepared tunnels in the city! I don't know how many there are. After all, digging tunnels is their skill! So I wanted to take advantage of their tricks and lure them out."

Upon hearing this, General Liu frowned, his tone full of displeasure: "What's going on? Will they be fooled? There are no one of ours in the city now!" His words were full of blame and disappointment, and he obviously doubted the ability of the Chen father and son.

Chen Dong was terrified when he saw this. He quickly explained, "General Liu, calm down. This is indeed our Chen family's mistake. But please rest assured, as long as we continue to act, they will definitely be fooled." His voice was full of determination and resolution, and he was obviously determined to solve this problem as soon as possible.

The air around them was filled with tension, and the soldiers' eyes were focused on Chen Dong and General Liu. They were all waiting for the next order!

"In that case, what else is there to do? Let's get on with the performance!" General Liu waved his hands impatiently.

"Yes!" Chen Dong agreed quickly.

General Liu looked at Chen Dong in front of him, but a different feeling arose in his heart: "This kid is really cunning! But this is exactly what I want!" He showed a sinister smile on his face.

Chen Dong looked at his subordinates and cursed in his heart: "Damn it, it's all my fault for being too careless! So many people were lost this time."

But soon they started to act together!

At this time, the entire camp was filled with torches and the sounds of shouting and killing.

Their conversation was very short, so Zhang Shan and the others who had been observing them had hardly noticed anything. They only knew that there was a big fire in the enemy's camp, and that a fierce fight was going on!

Most of Zhang Shan's men were miners, so how could they know any strategies? At this time, seeing the chaos in the camp of the government army, everyone became excited!

"Brother Zhang! The enemy camp has been destroyed!" "Haha, good!" Zhang Shan waved the big knife in his hand, his eyes flashing with excitement, "Brothers, it's time to show our true strength! Charge, kill into the enemy camp and win the victory!"

Following Zhang Shan's order, groups of soldiers who looked like miners rushed out like a tide, waving all kinds of weapons and rushing towards the camp where the flames were soaring into the sky. Their faces were full of enthusiasm and expectation, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.

However, when they rushed into the camp, they found that it was not as chaotic as they had imagined. Although there were flames everywhere, the soldiers stood in line in an orderly manner, and there was no panic on their faces, but instead they were full of calmness and determination.

"What's going on? Why are they..." Zhang Shan looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but feel an ominous premonition. He turned to look at his men, but found that they were also shocked by the scene in front of them, and their originally high morale instantly dropped.

At this moment, a figure walked out from the firelight. It was Chen Dong. With a mocking smile on his face, he looked at Zhang Shan and others in front of him and said, "Zhang Shan, do you think you really won? What you saw was just an illusion we deliberately created."

Zhang Shan's face turned pale when he heard this. He realized that he had fallen into the enemy's trap. He waved his sword angrily and tried to rush towards Chen Dong, but was firmly stopped by the surrounding soldiers.

"Shoot!" With General Liu's order, countless arrows rained down on Zhang Shan and his men. They waved their weapons in panic, trying to block the arrows, but soon someone was shot and fell.

"Retreat!" Zhang Shan saw this and knew that the situation was hopeless, so he shouted. However, it was too late. Under the cover of arrows, they were soon forced into a desperate situation.

In the end, Zhang Shan escaped with only a few of his trusted men under the cover of night. The others died or surrendered! This was the result of the inability of these government troops to fight for a long time!

Chen Dong and General Liu stood on a high place, overlooking everything. They both had satisfied smiles on their faces, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.

"Chen Dong, you did a good job this time." General Liu patted Chen Dong on the shoulder and praised him.

Chen Dong smiled modestly and said, "It's all thanks to General Liu's good command. I am just trying my best to help."

The two smiled at each other, as if they had seen the glory of the future. At this moment, the fire in the camp was still burning, but there was no more chaos and noise. Everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

Neither of them had any intention of chasing Zhang Shan!

"Father! Such a good opportunity actually let Zhang Shan, the thief leader, escape?" Li Wei and his son, who were not far away, saw all of this. They clearly saw that the government army had a chance to catch Zhang Shan, but in the end he still escaped.

"Isn't it clear? The guy named Liu has no good intentions! He must be keeping a thief to protect himself! He must have tasted the benefits from leading the troops this time! He wants more power! As long as Zhang Shan is not arrested, they can use Zhang Shan as an excuse to keep the military power!" Li Wei quickly found out the key!

"How can the Great Kun Empire not fall if it is full of these people..." Li Bin said angrily. But before he could finish his words, he was stopped by his father. After all, with so many people around, it was inevitable that these words would be spread to other people's ears.

"Congratulations, General! We have defeated the enemy and successfully recovered Xishan County!" Li Wei quickly walked up to General Liu and said!
