His body was trembling slightly in horror, and Zick was waiting for news from the city.
After waiting anxiously for a long time, a rope slowly fell on the gate of Rhone City. At the same time, a voice sounded from the city wall: "This general, grab the rope quickly, we will pull you up."
Hearing the sound on the city, Zike shook his head fiercely, and said to himself calmly: "Zike, you are a good person. This is just a mission. There is no need to be afraid. Don't be nervous, don't be nervous. If you have an accident, the whole operation will fail this time." After Qiang Zike calmly breathed himself, Zike let out a heavy breath. Then the nervous look on his face disappeared instantly, and he stretched out his hand with a serious face to hold the rope handed down from the city. After Zike pulled the rope, he was pulled up by the people in the city.
After getting up to the city wall, Zike did not encounter the kind of experience he had imagined that he would be tied up immediately. Instead, when he gained a foothold, there was a guy dressed in a civil servant on the city wall smiling at him with a hypocritical smile on his face.
"This general, are you the officer of the Wu'an Army who came to our Rhone Legion to report the letter before?" The civil servant looked at Zike with a hypocritical smile and said something very tangled.
After hearing the other party’s question, Zike thought carefully for a long time before she figured out what the other party was about to say to him. Although the smile of the person in front of him made him very disgusted, when he thought about the purpose of his trip and the environment he was in, Zike was not so stupid that he spoke to the other party. Instead, he instantly made his face full of smiles, and then said to the other party with a flattering look: "Thank you for sending someone to pull me up. When I was in the Wu'an Legion, through Lord Rig's contact, many of my brothers and I have admired the Rhone Legion for a long time. We have always been in a heart of seeking refuge, but we have no chance. Now we have finally found the opportunity to seek refuge in the Rhone Legion, so I risked being strangled in the middle of the night to report to your group."
When he heard Zike's answer, the hypocritical civil servant smiled even stronger. Although Zike's words did not have much credibility, before joining the Rhone Legion, this civil servant was just a scholar who had studied in the surrounding villages for several years. People like him had no vision at all. When he heard Zike was recommended by Rigg, he had completely believed in Zike's identity.
Immediately, the civil servant began to lead the way for Zike, slowly trying to walk down the city from the stairs inside the city wall.
Seeing that the other party had no suspicion about him, Zike's heart that had been hanging tightly finally let go. After adjusting his emotions again, Zike followed the civil servant to the city calmly.
After a long time, Zike followed the civil servant slowly to the lord's mansion in Rhone. After layers of notifications, Zike waited patiently for five minutes, and was finally led by the civil servant into the main hall of the lord's mansion by the civil servant.
After walking in, Zike finally met the real leader of the Rhone Legion.
I saw a one-eyed man dressed in a bandit, sitting proudly on the main seat in the middle. Seeing Zike being led into the main hall by a civil servant, the one-eyed man did not show any expression of goodwill on his face. He still looked at Zike with a arrogant look, and the one-eyed man asked lazily: "Are you the officer that Rigg bought in the Wu'an Legion?"
Hearing the one-eyed man's question, Zick immediately pretended to be in a fearful and terrified manner, bowed his body and said to the one-eyed man in a low voice: "Yes, sir."
"Yeah." He seemed very satisfied with Zike's performance at this time. After seeing Zike's panic, the one-eyed man finally smiled a little. Then he said to Zike arrogantly: "Then tell me, why are you here this time? If I remember correctly, when I arrange for Rigg to buy you, it is not just for you little officers. For your subordinates, is it the only one you surrender yourself?"
When Zike heard the question from the one-eyed man, he couldn't help but curse in his heart: "You are the leader like you, and you still hope that our brothers will really come to surrender to you. With your attitude towards employing people, you are definitely not the kind of guy who can accomplish great things." However, although Zike was very unhappy with the one-eyed man, he did not dare to show any of them at this time.
Putting away the little thoughts in his heart at this time, Zick continued to pretend to be very frightened and said to the one-eyed man: "Report to the general, my brothers have long been inclined to surrender, but they have no chance. Now our brothers who are preparing to surrender to the Rhone Legion are now gathered outside the city of Rhone with the troops sent by the Wu'an Legion. In order to express our sincerity, the brothers decided to let me report to the general first. As long as the general can take us in without grudges, we will definitely make a performance that satisfies the general."
"Oh? What can you do to satisfy me? Isn't it because I'm going to send someone out of the city to pick you up? You're just for you and a short knife, and you want to try to send someone?" Although the one-eyed man was very satisfied with Zike's reply, he still deliberately made things difficult for him.
The performance of the one-eyed man was completely in Zike's imagination. So Zike just continued to lower his head and said, "Don't worry, General, we can naturally give a satisfactory reply to the general. I came here this time not to let the adults send people out of the city to pick us up. Instead, we will find a way to make the Wu'an Legion's attack collapse instantly."
"What? What did you say? OK, okay, tell me carefully, how can you have such ability?" Hearing Zike's statement, the one-eyed man finally stopped being as arrogant as before, but asked with an excited expression.
Seeing the performance of the one-eyed man, Zick couldn't help but sneer again, and then said, "Mr. Rigg and us are completely secretive. The Margaret in the Wu'an Legion has no idea that nearly half of his men have defected to the Rhone Legion. So in the Wu'an Legion's camp, we can't imagine that we are the ones who are rebellious. Our people have agreed that at midnight tonight, we will start an internal strife in the military camp while other people who have not defected to the Rhone Legion are sleeping. Look at the time now, it should be soon to take action. If the general doesn't believe what I say, you can wait until midnight to see the situation in the Wu'an Legion's camp outside the city."
Listening to Zike's plan, even though this one-eyed man had done all the bad things before, he couldn't help but laugh at Zike and scolded: "Hahaha, I like people like you. Since you want to rebel, you naturally have to rebel thoroughly. OK, I'll see, I hope you don't disappoint me tonight's performance." After that, the one-eyed man rubbed his hands excitedly.
Looking at the one-eyed man's silly performance, Zike almost couldn't help but sneer. Following Margaret for many years, Zike always thought that the leader of a legion of this size must be the kind of person who does things without showing his emotions and a far-sighted vision. However, when he saw the one-eyed man's performance, Zike couldn't help but ask in his heart: "Which life has this idiot gone to have good luck to achieve this level today."
However, because he is now in the enemy camp, Zike dared not show his emotions at all. He looked up at the one-eyed man with a smirk, Zike pretended to be flattering and said: "Haha, General, let's be fine. Of course, our brothers will not disappoint the general. Just..."
The one-eyed man who was still listening to Zike's story with satisfaction, couldn't help frowning after hearing Zike's tone turning, and asked with an unhappy look: "What's wrong, it's just something. Do you still want to talk to me about the conditions for joining the Rhone Legion?"
Seeing that the one-eyed man misunderstood his meaning, Zick hurriedly said, "The general has misunderstood. The general has kindly taken in us. We will naturally not be arrogant or ask for other conditions. I just hope that the experts can understand the brothers who are now outside the city. Although we can take action while others are unprepared, after all, our number cannot keep up with those who have not defected to the Rhone Legion. If we really fight, our people will also suffer heavy losses. I hope the general can understand that we all sincerely want to surrender to your command. If we have died outside the city before we enter the city, this end may also make those who enter the city feel disappointed."
Zike talked freely, and said to the one-eyed man with a "sad" look on his face. Although before coming, Li Yi had already explained that on the premise of ensuring his safety, it would be better to shift the attention of the Rhone Legion to the camp of the Wu'an Legion outside the city. If not, there was no need to force the Rhone Legion to send troops out of the city to provide assistance. While backfiring, the Rhone Legion people became suspicious.
However, through Zike's close observation tonight, Zike found that each of the leaders of the Rhone Legion present could be described as idiots. So Zike couldn't help speaking immediately, wanting to try his luck to see if this one-eyed man could send some Rhone Legion people. After all, if it really succeeds, it would be of great help to those who go around the rear to prepare for a night attack.
When he heard Zike's complaints, the one-eyed man frowned and fell into deep thought. After all, Zike was right. If he wanted to truly recruit these Wu'an Legion, he had to do some things that could soothe people. If he watched the Wu'an Legion's internal strife tonight, and he just sat firmly in the city to reap the benefits. In this way, even if he won the final victory, there would definitely not be too many people who could survive and surrender to him. And because of his previous wait-and-see attitude, he would definitely have a repulsive mentality.
If this is true, then the money I used to buy the officers of the Wu'an Legion before would be spent in vain. Although I only bought some low-level officers of the Wu'an Legion, I couldn't resist the idiot Rigg's constant purchase. So in terms of quantity, bribing these low-level officers also cost the officer Rhone a lot of money. Now it's finally time to gain, but because of my own wait and see, all my previous investments have fallen into the sea. Such a result does not seem to be a good result.
After figuring out these, the one-eyed man couldn't help but turn his eyes to a quiet middle-aged man beside him. This middle-aged man didn't say a word after Zike came in, but just stared at Zike with his eyes. Although Zike's performance after coming in did not show any flaws, this middle-aged man still felt that something was wrong with Zike. He was just suffering from the lack of evidence, so he simply didn't say much.
But now seeing his great leader turned his eyes to him, middle-aged man knew that it was the other party who wanted to ask for his opinions. Facing the one-eyed man's inquiring gaze, middle-aged man frowned and pondered for a long time, and slowly spoke: "Brother, it's really hard for me to make a decision on this matter. According to our previous plans, these people who are now preparing to come to surrender to the Wu'an Legion, who are now ready to surrender, will definitely be a big help for us. Unfortunately, they were so sensitive when they joined, which made us too embarrassed. If we don't go out to help them, it will inevitably make them feel resentful after the matter is done. But if we go out to help them, to be honest, I'm afraid there will be frauds in it."
This middle-aged man sounded very insightful, but if he thought about it carefully, what he said was nothing but nonsense. This guy went around and did not give a definite answer at all. Even such an answer made the one-eyed man praise it a few words.
Looking at the scene in front of him speechlessly, Zike's sneer became stronger. At the same time, Zike also admired Li Yi even more. Li Yi just used his tricks and made him come so pretend to surrender, which made the leaders of the Rhone Legion fall into a dilemma.
"Hmph, just guess slowly. With your broken heads, you can't imagine that our real purpose is not to expect you to divide your troops out of the city to rescue. As long as you can draw your attention away, our night attack plan will be perfectly carried out." Thinking secretly in my heart, Zike still said to the one-eyed man: "General, this master's words naturally have his own reasons. My one-sided words alone will naturally not let you go out of the city to rescue us at the risk of losing your subordinates. Well, our brothers have also accepted our fate, who made us greedy for wealth? Tonight's action, the general can't send people out, I just hope that the general can treat our brothers well in the future."
Zike said it very sincerely, as if he had really decided to let his people fight against the other troops of the Wu'an Legion to death.
Looking at Zike with a sincere face at this moment, the one-eyed man finally waved his hand and slapped the seat at hand and said loudly: "Damn it, how could I, Rona, be the kind of person who looks in trouble and ignores his own people? If this is the case, wouldn't it be a cold heart for your own people? Don't worry, since those people outside the city have decided to surrender to me, I will naturally not watch them die in battle. Is there any signal when you do something at midnight?"
Seeing that the one-eyed man seemed to have finally decided to divide his troops out of the city, Zike couldn't help but feel excited and secretly exclaimed. Unexpectedly, he actually told the other party in a few words. Now that the other party decided to divide his troops out of the city, the defense in the city would naturally become more empty when the night attack. If nothing unexpected happens, tomorrow morning, this city of Rhone is probably going to change hands.
