Chapter four hundred and seventy first deceive the city
If a person like Wang Gui lives for a thousand years, he will probably be the kind of person who turns into a dragon when he encounters wind and clouds. When he first entered the city from the countryside, he stood in the city's steel and concrete jungle, with a look of cringe and confusion, and even his ideals are not worth mentioning.
However, once he met a noble person appreciated him, Wang Gui gradually became confident. He suddenly realized that he was still useful and that he could also cross the class and become a superior person.
In his eyes, the strange steel and concrete jungle gradually became a leisurely place. When encountering a powerful man with a higher status than him, he can be neither humble nor arrogant. More importantly, when encountering a difficult problem, Wang Gui can calmly help the man solve it.
It is never that easy to cross a class, it requires talent, ability, and a mentality to be indifferent to any critical moment.
People like Wang Gui should be born to cross the class and have all the conditions they should meet.

Walking in Luoyang City, which belongs to the enemy-occupied area, Wang Gui looked around curiously. His walking posture was quite interesting, with his waist slightly bent and his arms swinging were very small, as if he was afraid that walking would cause trouble for himself. He didn't take big steps, and when he walked alone, he also had a warm and friendly smile on his face, as if he was waiting for business to come to his door all the time.
Before entering Luoyang City, Wang Gui carefully studied the appearance of a merchant. In his impression, this is how the merchant looks. He looks friendly on the outside and even flatters, but he is smart and calculating inside and is very particular.
So after entering Luoyang City, Wang Gui became like this.
Walking along the way, Wang Gui stopped and closed the shop. He knocked on the door patiently. After knocking on it for a few times, he didn't respond. Wang Gui shook his head and continued to walk forward.
When he walked to the west city gate unknowingly, Wang Gui suddenly heard a rumbling sound of horse hooves behind him. He subconsciously avoided the side and suddenly discovered that it was a general who led thousands of soldiers to the city gate, and it seemed that he was planning to leave the city.
Wang Gui's eyes flashed, and he bowed respectfully to avoid the roadside, but his eyes were silently counting the number of soldiers leaving the city without blinking. Until all the soldiers passed, Wang Gui's hands in his sleeve kept counting, and then calculated the number of soldiers.
Six thousand people, Gao Shang sent troops out of the city to help Hangu Pass, and sent half of the defenders in the city, which means that there were still about five or six thousand defenders left in Luoyang City at this time.
He looked up at the sky. It was still time to light the lights. Calculate the time. Shen Tian’s troops should have just left the camp and had not yet arrived at the scheduled location to ambush. Wang Gui had enough time to do something in Luoyang City.
So Wang Gui slowly returned to the inn with a warm smile.
The backyard of the inn has been taken by Wang Gui and more than a dozen personal guards. Wang Gui is the shopkeeper, and more than a dozen personal guards are his friends.
Their preparations were very good, and the ox carts they came were loaded with real goods. When Wang Gui walked into the backyard of the inn, more than a dozen personal guards squatted beside the ox cart and talked.
Seeing Wang Gui come back, a personal guard came forward, laughed at the shopkeeper, and then threw a look of questioning.
Wang Gui smiled and shook his head slightly, and squatted beside the ox cart and said with a smile: "What are you talking about?"
A personal guard lowered his voice and laughed: "We were just talking about it. The Marquis sent us into Luoyang City and invested a lot of money. The ox carts were filled with exquisite porcelain and silk, as well as gold and wine from the Western Regions. Tsk, how much is it worth if you exchange it for money?"
Wang Gui smiled and scolded: "Do you really think the Marquis sent us to Luoyang City to do business? Be energetic and do things well. The goods on the ox cart are all decorations to cover our identity."
The guard smiled with a shy face and said, "If we do a good job in Luoyang City this time, I won't ask the Marquis to give me any rewards. Just give me the goods on the ox cart..."
Wang Gui rolled his eyes and said, "Your prospect is really... If we can capture Luoyang City this time, we will make a lot of contributions as internal supporters. The Marquis said that after capturing Luoyang City, we will ask us for credit, and ask the court to each of us to be promoted to a lieutenant. In the future, we will be a legitimate general. Do the general understand? Walking in the Anxi Army camp, we will salute each of us."
The guards were all excited, and everyone's faces were filled with joy.
"Brother Gui, you should be the main one in Luoyang City. Tell me how we do it?"
Wang Gui blinked his eyes and smiled very dirty. He glanced at a personal guard and said, "I dare to ask, is Lord Lingzun healthy?"
The guard said in surprise: "Of course he is still here, he is farming at home."
Wang Gui smacked his lips, turned his head and looked around the guards, and said, "Who has died of father? Come out and take two steps."
The words made the guards furious, and Wang Guishang's best silk long gown suddenly had a lot of footprints.
One of the burly guards really stepped forward and took two steps and said roughly: "My grandfather has been dead for more than ten years, what's going on?"
Wang Gui hurried and sincerely said: "Sincere and follow the changes..."
"Stop talking nonsense. I have been dead for more than ten years. What are you going to do?"
Wang Gui said carefully: "How about you, Lord Lingzun, die again?"
The dead father's personal guard was furious: "My family's Lingzun has died once, and it's your turn to be your family's Lingzun!"
…………
An hour later, the lights in Luoyang City gradually faded, and the city seemed even more quiet and quiet. The summer breeze blew across the empty streets, with a bit of gloomy chill.
The silence of the night was broken, and more than a dozen people looked panicked and hurried towards the south city gate. It was Wang Gui and his personal guards, but there were two missing among them.
The rebel soldiers guarding the city gate had already noticed them. Seeing them approaching hurriedly, the rebels immediately became alert. Ping raised the long halberd in his hand and shouted sternly: "Who dares to make noise in front of the city gate late at night? Who are you?"
Wang Gui, dressed as a merchant, looked frightened and helpless. More than a dozen people stood still. Wang Gui crossed his hands to the rebels anxiously and said panic: "This general, we are evil people. We have to leave the city late at night because of an urgent matter at home. Please let the general be merciless."
The rebel leader sneered: "After night, no one is allowed to enter and exit the city gate. If you have a big deal, wait for dawn to talk about it. You are suspicious and it is definitely not a good way to go. If you come, take them down!"
Wang Gui's knees softened and he knelt on the ground and cried loudly.
The friend begged in a low voice: "The general is forgiven for his crimes. It is a matter of love. The shopkeeper has always been filial and planned to go home as soon as possible to support his parents, but he has delayed his return home in this chaos. At night today, I just received the letter. The father in the shopkeeper's family was terminally ill and was exhausted. He only wanted to see his son for the last time. The shopkeeper was anxious and had to ask all the generals late at night to be able to beg for the generals to be able to be harmonious."
After saying that, the guy took out a cloth bag from his arms, took out a silver cake as big as a palm from the cloth bag and stuffed it into the hands of the rebel leader. The guy bowed and smiled, "General, be kind, be kind, walk a convenient door to achieve the filial piety of those who are sons..."
The leader took the silver cake and weighed it. The silver cake was about ten or two, which was considered a huge sum of money.
The rebel leader's expression eased a lot, and he no longer insisted on taking everyone down and asking for punishment, but he still said: "The city gate must not be opened after night, otherwise I will eat military law and cannot be compatible. You might as well build a bedding here for only one night, and it will be only three hours before dawn. When dawn is almost dawn, I can decide to open the city gate in advance and release you out of the city."
The guy looked embarrassed and looked at Wang Gui who was still crying, and hesitantly asked: "Shopkeeper, look at this..."
Wang Gui wiped his tears and said sadly: "You can't let the general make things difficult for you. This is the only way. If the general is worried, the villain and the guys will build a bedside by the city gate and wait for dawn."
The rebel leader saw that the group of people were dressed and looked at their suspicion gradually faded. Seeing that their appearance was just ordinary shopkeepers and friends, there seemed to be nothing suspicious about it.
So the rebel leader slowed down and said something: "A person cannot be resurrected by death. He is filial to his daily life. Even if the old man can't see you for the last time, he will not regret it. Please wait for dawn with peace of mind."
When Wang Gui mentioned the story of his father, he burst into tears again, with a sad and griefful crying, with a sincere expression and a sincere cry, like a filial son kneeling in his father's mourning hall.
The group of people really set up a simple bedside beside the city gate. With the silver cake of more than ten taels, the rebels guarding the city gate pretended that they didn't see it, and let Wang Gui and his friends lie all over the ground beside the city gate corridor.
At midnight, the rebels guarding the city gate could not stand it. When they were yawning with their weapons, a shrill cry for help suddenly broke out from a residential house not far from the city gate. The voice was loud and desperate, cutting through the tranquility of the night.
"Help! Killing! Someone is committing a murderer-"
As soon as he finished speaking, a fire suddenly lit up in the residential houses, and the fire spread rapidly. Countless people in the city were awakened and frightened to escape from the houses. They rushed to flee to extinguish the fire.
The fire was very close to the city gate, and the rebels could not ignore it. And when the voice said that a villain was committing an offense, the rebels couldn't help but pay more attention. Now it was a troublesome. It was a matter of time. Someone who was infiltrated into the city tried to cause trouble and seize the city, and no movement could be taken lightly.
So the rebel leader quickly explained a few words, and then led half of the people guarding the city gate to investigate the fire.
In a blink of an eye, there were only about forty rebels guarding the city gate.
In a mess, Wang Gui, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes. After blinking a few times, he pretended to be asleep and turned over. Then he found that more than a dozen other guards had opened their eyes. Everyone exchanged their eyes silently.
Wang Gui looked at the city wall horse road above the city gate again.
Luoyang City is already very large, and the original 20,000 rebels defended the city was almost enough. However, since Tian Chengsi attacked the Anxi Army camp and lost 8,000 troops. Today, Gao Shang had to send 6,000 troops to support Hangu Pass, there were only five or six thousand people left in Luoyang's huge city. Five or six thousand people were distributed on the huge city wall horse road, which seemed particularly thin, and at most it played a role of looking out and warning.
