Chapter 1590 Took the bait

"There is no movement for the time being." Chen Wende replied.

Since the change of guard at the city gate, Chen Wende has been watching the outside of the city in person, in order to be able to detect the unusual movements of the rebels outside the city as soon as possible.

However, until now, the enemy outside the city has not made any movement.

"I wonder if our former Minister of War can resist this temptation." Wu Fan said to himself.

At this time, in the rebel camp outside the city, teams of soldiers have been assembled, all the horses' mouths have been blocked, and the sound of horses' hooves has been wrapped up, making no sound.

In the previous siege, cavalry was almost useless, and sometimes they were even used as infantry.

But now it is different. This time, they finally have a chance to play. They don't have to climb the top of the city this time, but directly enter the city through the city gate. In this way, the cavalry naturally has a place to use their skills.

The cavalrymen under Cai Cheng were all holding back their anger. During this period, they could only be spectators or used as infantry, which made them feel aggrieved. Now, they can finally go to the battlefield as cavalrymen. They all want to vent their previous frustration and wreak havoc on the battlefield.

"Are you all ready?" Cai Cheng asked the generals next to him.

This battle in the early morning is crucial. If they succeed, they can capture Fengyu City in one fell swoop and drive Wu Ya off the throne. Cai Cheng can rule the world. If they lose, everything will be over. Cai Cheng is likely to be beheaded by Wu Ya and nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

Therefore, this is a battle that cannot be lost. Even though Cai Cheng has seen all kinds of things, he dare not take this battle lightly. Even if he is old, he can't take a rest. He must participate in it throughout the whole process. Even if he doesn't go to the battlefield, he has to supervise the battle from behind.

"Everything is ready and can launch an attack at any time." A general next to him replied.

Cai Cheng looked at Fengyu City, which was shrouded in darkness not far away, and did not immediately issue an order to attack. He knew what this battle meant. The success or failure depended on this battle. Even he felt a little nervous.

"Sir, now is the best time to attack. If we delay for too long, when it is bright, it will be very difficult for us to cooperate with the insiders and outsiders in the city." Zhao Qiushan said beside him.

Cai Cheng looked up at the sky. At this time, it was the darkest moment before dawn, and it was also the most sleepy moment. After this period of time, the sun would rise and the sky would be bright, and they would not have such a good opportunity again.

Thinking of this, Cai Cheng finally made up his mind, raised his right hand, and waved it fiercely:

"Attack!"

The order to attack was quickly passed down. After receiving the order to attack, all the soldiers who were ready to go began to take advantage of the night and head towards Fengyu City.

All the soldiers deliberately slowed down their steps as they advanced, to ensure that they would not be discovered by the soldiers on the top of the city wall when they approached the city wall.

Cai Cheng did not move, but stood there with a solemn expression. After giving the order to attack, he did not relax, but became more nervous, and there was a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

As the commander of the entire army, Cai Cheng could not express this feeling, otherwise it would inevitably affect the morale of the entire army. Moreover, all his troops had already set out. At this time, stopping the attack would be a blow to the morale and his image in the minds of the soldiers of the entire army.

"This is already our best chance. Although it is risky, it is worth it. How can a war always be calm?" Cai Cheng comforted himself in his heart.

When he was a general in the army before, he had encountered more dangerous situations than this, but he smiled in the end. He believed that he would definitely be the final winner this time!

The rebels kept approaching the city wall. Even though they had deliberately slowed down their steps and even controlled their breathing, there were still rustling sounds. It was not very loud, and the people in the rebels did not take it too seriously. They did not expect that there would be no sound at all. This subtle sound could not wake up the resting defenders in the city.

The attack and defense of Fengyu City had lasted for some time. The rebels had never launched an attack at night, so they also believed that the defenders in the city would definitely relax their defense in this regard. What's more, their attack this time was sudden, and the defenders in the city could not think of it, let alone make any preparations.

However, what these people did not know was that the city had already prepared for their actions this time. In addition to the ambush of Pei Yu and others, Wu Fan and others were also waiting for them on the top of the city.

There was movement!

When the rebels outside the city were about to approach the city wall, Wu Fan and others on the top of the city heard the movement from outside the city. Everyone looked intently and saw countless vague figures approaching in the dark.

"It seems that our chance has been successful, and Cai Chengguo has really been fooled!" Wu Fan said excitedly.

Although they have defended Fengyu City until now, they have also paid a heavy price. It is time to end this war. Now that he sees that Cai Cheng has fallen into the trap, Wu Fan naturally feels a lot more relieved.

"I'll go get everyone to wake up." Chen Wende said.

In order to prevent the news from leaking in advance, Chen Wende did not disclose the operation in the early morning to too many people before. He only told some trustworthy elite troops, just in case. It is now confirmed that Cai Cheng's people have really fallen into the trap. It's time to wake up everyone in the city.

"Go ahead and make them quieter, but don't scare away the 'guests' outside the city." Wu Fan said with a smile.

"I know." Chen Wende responded.

"Next, we have to wait and see the performance." Wu Fan said with a smile.

As long as Cai Cheng falls into the trap, then they will have already won half of this war.

"It's finally over." Wu Ya said next to Wu Fan.

As the emperor of Nanping Kingdom, Wu Ya naturally does not want to see such wars happening in her own court. She just wants to govern the country well so that the people can live a good life. Such wars will only increase the people's suffering. burden.

Of course, in a sense, Wu Ya also needs such a war. As long as she wins this war, she can gain enough prestige to stabilize her rule. At the same time, she can also eliminate some people with ulterior motives in the court. Human, so this war is not entirely a bad thing for her.

Of course, the premise is that she can have the last laugh.

Obviously, with Wu Fan's help, she was almost successful.
