The Legend of Zhu San
123: The Situation of Songdu City
As Song Ruo had expected, the five thousand soldiers arrived in Songdu City after three days and three nights of endless walking.
The party entered Songdu city from the west gate, a guard that looked twice as tight as Song Ruo had last seen, making a bad premonition fill Father Qin Yu's mind, when his carriage arrived in front of the city Gate.
As he got off the carriage, the City Gate Guard Commander immediately approached him.
At first they were ready to attack. But looking at the Songdu City Warrior Flag, the Commander immediately ordered his members to open the gates.
The commander immediately saluted him upon recognizing Song Ruo. Song Ruo immediately asked after replying to the reverence.
“What's the Commander? Why is the number of troops on guard doubled than usual?” Song Ruo circulated his gaze, there were at least two to three hundred warriors who were around the gate.
“Master Song Ruo, this afternoon the enemy troops had just set up camp at a distance of one kilometer from the eastern gate of Songdu city. Lucky for you to come, General Zou Bao is currently strategizing with Mr. Song Yu at his residence.”
Zhu San as well as the others who were still in the horse carriage, were shocked upon hearing the Guardian Warrior Commander's explanation. Song Ruo immediately entered back into the horse carriage.
The two horse carriages, immediately speeding into Songdu City. The residence of the Song Nobles was about one and a half kilometers from the western gate of the city.
So that within a dozen minutes, the two trains had arrived at the courtyard of a very large and magnificent residence. Surrounding it are several buildings that are slightly smaller
Song Ruo got off the horse carriage, He invited Zhu San and Ju Yan to come into the room which apparently had many soldiers in the room.
In Xeuxu invited the others to enter another building on the right side of the large building. The building was indeed reserved for the Song Ruo family.
Song Ruo's arrival was greeted with a happy face by all of them. Noble Song Yu was stunned as she looked at Zhu San's face which reminded her of her Friend Zhu Han.
“Ah You must be Lung’er Son My friend Zhu Han. How are your parents? I have heard what happened in Shinzu City some time ago.”
Noble Song Yu said quite a lot, which made the officer soldiers who had originally questioned who the two young men were, instantly smile widely.
The news of Zhu San's prowess that had managed to seize Shinzu City with his Father by dismantling the false guise of Zhu Han, they had heard some time ago.
Finding the figure of the young man is now in front of those who are in this precarious situation, of course, becomes a very meaningful thing.
“True Uncle Yu, I'm Zhu Lung, Dad said hello to uncle when he found out that I was going to Songdu City to see Uncle Ruo. Right now they are fine.”
Noble Song Yu smiled widely, after inquiring about the situation in Baixan city and introducing those in the room, Noble Song Yu immediately restarted their conversation.
“So we do not know yet how many soldiers they brought to conquer Songdu City?” Song Ruo said as he stroked his chin.
“True Mr. Ruo, this is our main problem at this time. So that we can only survive with the standard strategy.”
General Zou Bao answered Song Ruo's question with a face that looked gloomy, as if his shoulders were crushed by the rice one quintal.
“Are we not sending spies to take a closer look in order to find out how many they number?” Zhu San who had been silent, asked who?
“We've already sent two people and they both went home headless.” There was a look of indignation in General Zou Bao's voice as he answered Zhu San's question.
Everyone's gaze instantly turned toward Zhu San and Ju Yan. Song Ruo immediately shook his head.
“Lung’er .. I know the ability is very high, but after what happened with our two spies, Uncle does not want you and your friend to risk the danger.”
“True Lung’er .. I don't want anything to happen to you. You are a guest in my house. Of course I won't let you go through such great danger.”
Noble Song Yu said to prevent Zhu San from doing so. Yet Zhu San and Ju Yan only smiled faintly hearing it.
“How did you infiltrate their camp? The two of our spies who were killed were the two who were the most expert in infiltrating. Yet they ended up with a terrible death.”
Hearing General Zou Bao's words that slightly doubted his ability made Zhu San smile faintly before answering his question.
“We both have ways neither of them can. Uncle Yu and Uncle Ruo, we will only see how much they amount by looking at it from the air.”
“APA!!” Everyone gasped at Zhu San's words.
Even General Zou Bao's mouth was wide open. He also recalled the news that the young man who freed Shinzu City could float in the air.
“Do you have the Technique of hovering in the air like the news I heard?”
Nobles Song Yu and Song Ruo, were stunned when they heard General Zou Bao's question which had apparently not been conveyed to them.
“Lung’er .. Is it true that you can float in the air?” Song Ruo immediately asked.
“True Uncle, we both have that technique. That's how we intend to find out how much power they exert?”
General Zou Bao and all those inside the room, looked in admiration towards Zhu San and Ju Yan.
***
At the same time as the conversation at the residence of the Noble Song Yu, three kilometers east of Songdu City, the same conversation took place.
It's just that the strategist is four warriors, two of whom are old.
They were Zhi Hung and Dao Fang who were assigned by Luo San to help the Nobles of Yin Lu conquer Songdu City.
The nobleman Yin Lu was a noble who presided over Dongyin City which was in the southeastern region of the Imperial Capital Liu.
While the two grandfathers who were each carrying Black Axe and Blood-red Sticks looked so revered by Zhi Hung and Dao Fang.
The four of them had finished putting together a plan that was planned, to be carried out when the night had reached its peak in a few hours.
