Chapter 054, Entering Tianyan City After this, several generals looked at Young Marshal Linghu with slightly surprised eyes. Zhu Youhong even directly agreed to her proposal, and after ordering the soldiers to stay behind, he and Marshal Linghu led only a part of the vanguard cavalry straight to Tianyan City overnight.

Sky Smoke City's guard Wang Liankun opened the city gate to welcome them. However, it was a bit disappointing to see that they had only a few thousand cavalry.

General Wang said: "Report to Nine Masters! The enemy army is marching towards our Tianyan City with all its strength, and it is only a few hundred kilometers away from our Tianyan City. We have only 10,000 soldiers defending the city, and you have a few thousand fine cavalry and less than 20,000. But the Vietnamese army has more than 200,000 soldiers and horses.

Young Marshal Linghu said: "General Wang, can you immediately let the people in the city sing and dance to celebrate our army's entry into the city? In addition, send people to collect all the gongs and drums in the city, and beat the gongs and drums on the city walls so that the sound can be heard a hundred miles away."

Wang Liankun was stunned when he heard this, but Master Jiu patted his shoulder and said, "Just do what Young Marshal Linghu said! Let someone spread the news that all the 200,000 troops of our army have entered the city!"

"Yes, follow the order of Lord Jiu!" Wang Liankun immediately executed it, mobilizing the 10,000 soldiers in the city to act overnight, spreading the good news that the army had entered the city first.

Because all the gongs and drums in the whole city were beaten up, the whole city was full of songs and dances, and the sound spread from Fangyuan hundreds of miles away.

When Baili Zate and the Yue soldiers led by the third prince Duanmu Canglan rushed from the ancient temple city to a few hundred miles away from Tianyan City, they suddenly heard a burst of drums and gongs. Originally, they wanted Xingye to catch up with Zhu Shuai's soldiers and attack Tianyan City first, but at this moment they reined in and stopped.

General Bailizat and the third prince were demoralized when they heard the sound of the drum, and the third prince had not fully recovered from the arrow wound. The third prince can control the black eagle, but the black eagle is the overlord in the sky, how can he get it easily?

Except for the third prince, no one in the Vietnamese army can control the black eagle.

Baili Zate said: "I didn't expect Master Zhu's journey to be so fast! We are still a step behind. So, we can only camp here and wait for a whole day to rest and have enough morale before attacking the city."

The third prince said: "According to the plan, if they enter the city tonight, the journey will be too fast, and the soldiers will be very exhausted. We might as well take this opportunity to attack the city."

Before he finished speaking, someone reported that some soldiers fell down and couldn't walk because they were too hurried, and had to rest.

Baili Zate said: "They are tired, so are we! We have already attacked three cities in a row. Now we still have to attack Tianyan City, which has 200,000 soldiers from the Nine Masters. They are just defending the city. How can I put it this way, the attackers need to rest and have a high morale before attacking the city and looting the land in one go."

The third prince has nothing to say, because what General Baili said makes sense. However, if they really go to attack the city at this moment, or intercept the troops behind Zhu Youchen, the situation will be completely different.

Because the soldiers and horses of General Baili did not dare to act rashly, they set up camp a few hundred miles outside the city.

The next day they were still resting their morale and did not launch an attack on the city, thinking that Zhu Jiuye's soldiers and horses had all entered Tianyan City and did not send troops for a long time.

So, at night, King You's soldiers and horses quietly entered Tianyan City.
