Chapter 1687: Stirring Restlessly

Therefore, even if the news of Guju City being breached came, Weiye City did not send additional manpower to guard the Ghost Gate Pass, only focusing on the defense of the four city gates.
A suspension bridge is built on the Ghost Gate Pass, between two towering peaks, and sitting on the wooden tower, one can see the rivers and streams below.
If someone is willing to risk their life, crossing the river from afar, even if they are lucky enough to reach the Ghost Gate, they will be spotted by the Zhang army and have huge rocks thrown down on their small boat.
But the Zhang army never imagined that someone would be able to swim underwater through the turbulent river and reach the Ghost Gate.
Under the twilight, Mi Zheng took advantage of the dense forest cover and sneakily approached the guard post...
The next morning, Jun Mo Xiao led eight thousand soldiers and, after a day and night of preparation, finally set up enough crude small boats for use.
Don't laugh at the fact that Kunmo travels across various waterways in Yuguo all year round. His soldiers not only excel at swimming, but also know how to tie rafts. Moreover, there are several soldiers who can build ships accompanying him.
Looking at the long fleet of ships on the river, Jun Mo Xiao smiled confidently.
In this battle, he was undoubtedly going to win.
The city of Wei Ye had many dangerous passes and was a difficult city to attack and defend. There was no better way to attack the city than from this road. The loss of Guan Ju City had already spread to Wei Ye City with the deserters, but this time, they would never fall for the Prince of Yu's trick again.
However, the Prince of Yu only has a cavalry of two thousand men, and relying solely on this small force to take the North Gate, which is an insurmountable obstacle, is like trying to reach the sky.
In addition, once the war breaks out here, the State of Yu will also launch an attack on the State of Zhang, leaving the State of Zhang vulnerable and unable to move.
Therefore, he has a good chance of winning this round.
On the river this morning, there was a white fog that prevented seeing beyond 100 meters.
Li Xing laughed and said, "General, even the heavens are helping us."
There is white fog on the river, which increases the danger and also provides opportunities.
The white fog covers people's vision and makes it difficult to see into the distance, making it easy to lose direction. If there are hidden reefs under the water, it can easily cause a capsized boat.
But equally, the Zhanjiang soldiers guarding the river could not see them approaching from afar, and could not prepare for defense in advance. When they finally approached, it was already too late for them to react.
Everything was just as Jun Mo laughed had expected. It was not until they were only a few dozen meters away from the Zhanjiang water camp that the Zhanjiang soldiers finally spotted the enemy. By that time, it was already too late to beat drums and warn the others, and to form a defensive line.
The Yu troops are experienced in water combat, and the war is nearly over when the sun rises.
As long as we take down this water camp, we can directly attack the rear of the West City and take the West City gate.
As victory seemed to be in sight, Junmoxiao stood at the bow of the ship, about to encourage the soldiers, when suddenly he noticed a signal flare rising from the north gate.
"What's going on? Did the Yu soldiers take the north gate again? How is that possible?" Vice General Li Xing also saw the signal flare and, too stunned to remember he was still in battle, narrowly escaped being struck by a Zhang soldier.
Li Xing quickly chopped down the Zhang soldiers in front of him and ran to Jun Mo Xiao's side. "General, what is this signal flare about? How could they take down the North City so quickly? Your subordinate suspects that this time it is Prince Yu deceiving us."
Don't laugh, with a face as calm as water. "If he's trying to deceive us, we'll know for sure once we finish attacking and join up with him quickly."
If he is trying to deceive them, when they reach the north gate, it will still be intact. If they really manage to take it down...Jun Mo Xie will start to doubt life itself.
How can such a small group of people fight so well?
Yuwang City.
Guanxiu City is several days away from Yuwang City, and the people in the city still don't know that Xiao Hui has recaptured two cities in just three days.
However, Xiao Jin's excuse of military training to recapture Guanju City could not be kept a secret, and the people of Wangcheng became aware of the fact that the Prince of Yu had left the city.
Even the fact that Xiao Jin had only brought two thousand soldiers was known to the various noble families of Wangcheng, and this news spread from Wangcheng to all directions.
Do they really dare to recover lost territory with only two thousand soldiers? Even with the help of the Yu soldiers and generals, there would only be a total of ten thousand troops at most. It's a bit of a joke for ten thousand soldiers to attempt to recover three cities, especially considering how notoriously difficult it is to conquer the fortified city of Weiye. Moreover, the Yu soldiers and generals are here to assist, and anyone with a bit of sense would not let them serve as the main force. Therefore, only the two thousand soldiers would be the main force, and it seems insufficient for such a task.
王城不少人都坐着看笑话，亦有些人，蠢蠢欲动。
