Chapter 158 What’s in the Bag

July 28th, noon.

Xiao Yi's army finally arrived twenty miles outside Kunyang City and joined forces with Li Fei's vanguard.

In the main account, Li Fei was reporting to Xiao Yi.

“As soon as I received the order from the commander-in-chief, I sent people to set up an ambush on the road from Kunyang to Dingyang to intercept the soldiers of the Eastern Army who were trying to report the news and seek help.

However, no soldiers were found to report the news throughout the day.

Only a few civilians passed by there, and they have all been arrested. After careful investigation and screening, it was confirmed that they were not soldiers. "

Hmm? Xiao Yi was a little puzzled.

"What's the situation in Kunyang City?" Xiao Yi asked.

Li Fei quickly reported truthfully:

“The gates of Kunyang City are tightly closed, and the news from inside is strictly blocked.

But what we learned earlier was that there were originally 8,000 defenders in the city, and Chu Tiancheng sent Wang Feng to bring 10,000 people.

Three days ago, Zuo Qingyun brought 10,000 people, and two days ago, Wang Xing from Nanyang brought 12,000 people.

There are currently only 40,000 soldiers and horses in the city."

"Well, only 40,000 men, which is only one-tenth of my Southern Army."

Xiao Yi felt more at ease.

"In your opinion, has Chu Tiancheng in Dingyang received the news that we have surrounded Kunyang?"

Li Fei thought for a moment and said, "Based on the current situation, the news from both sides should have been cut off by us."

"Hahahaha!" Xiao Yi was very happy.

He patted Li Fei on the shoulder and said, "Li Fei, you did a good job! After we return to Yuncheng, I will give you a promotion."

Li Fei was so excited that he was about to kneel down and kowtow, but Xiao Yi stopped him with a smile.

This time, not only was he able to easily win a great victory, but he also won people's hearts along the way. Xiao Yi was very happy.

Xiao Yi looked up at the midday sun and said, "Oh, it's time for lunch."

He turned and called the messenger, saying loudly:

"Pass the order down, the army will rest here and have a good lunch."

Three quarters past noon, at the command center in Kunyang City.

The spy reported, "General Wang, Xiao Yi's army has arrived at the camp 20 miles outside the city at noon and joined Li Fei's vanguard.

But the army was resting on the spot, making fire and cooking, and there was no sign of gathering to march out. "

Wang Feng frowned and looked at Qin Rubing, "Princess, what does Xiao Yi mean by this? What should we do?"

Qin Rubing smiled faintly and said:

"Xiao Yi, you are looking down on us.

He regarded Kunyang City as his own, so he was not in a hurry to take action. He wanted to wait until he had eaten and drunk his fill before coming to deal with us.

Pass the order, everything will remain the same today."

"Yes." The messenger went down.

In Kunyang City, all the soldiers were still on duty as usual, with nothing unusual.

They took shifts on time, patrolled the city streets, and guarded the city walls and gates. Everything seemed in order.

The residents in the city also lead normal lives. Children play in the streets, old people sit in front of their homes chatting in the sun, and women are busy with housework.

Both the soldiers and the common people had no idea that an army of 400,000 men had gathered 20 miles outside the city.

Therefore, everyone continued to do what they were supposed to do as usual, without realizing the impending crisis.

This peaceful atmosphere feels a little eerie, like the calm before a storm.

Wang Xing mustered up his courage and asked, "Princess, is this okay? Wouldn't everyone be even more scared when they find out?"

"Our soldiers must conserve their energy. If they don't fight, they will die. If they fight, they will become gods."

Qin Rubing said in a loud voice, "We will do our best to protect all the people in the city."
