Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 571 Deployment 1: Wait for the Enemy to Come

Chu Chen thought to himself, "That makes sense."

I've become so addicted to being the sixth person in the family that I've forgotten how to think!

So he quickly asked, "Brother Lan, please tell me the location of Xin Jitong's residence."

After listening, Lan Tianlei pulled Chu Chen to a large map of Qingyun City.

"It's easy to find. He is the deputy city lord, so his residence is quite large. It's right here."

Chu Chen glanced at the map and immediately understood where Xin Jitong was.

"Alright, I understand. Tomorrow, proceed according to plan."

After saying that, he bid farewell to Lan Tianlei and left.

He wouldn't be foolish enough to make a move tonight. If the intelligence is accurate, then the leader of this kobold will definitely be waiting for him inside the city walls tomorrow.

If it's fake, then once the battle starts tomorrow night, I can go to Xin Jitong's house and catch them all without hesitation.

Moreover, according to common sense, this leader must not be very strong in combat.

If they were experts, they would have come looking for trouble long ago; why would they need to do these shady things behind the scenes?

So he drove towards Chu Shiwu's location.

After meeting Chu Shiwu, I made arrangements for him for tomorrow night.

Then they took Chu Shiliu back with them.

This girl can be very useful in crucial moments.

Early the next morning, Chu Chen arranged for Chu Shiliu to approach Xin Jitong's residence and lie in ambush in the surrounding area.

He disguised himself and walked into the city lord's mansion.

At this moment, Lan Tianlei was quietly mobilizing the garrison troops.

The soldiers were secretly transferred to the other side of the city wall.

All of this was thoroughly investigated by Xin Jitong's mole planted in the city lord's mansion.

Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Xin Jitong immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, that idiot Lan Tianlei actually mobilized all the garrison troops to the city wall. He must have received news of the beast army's large-scale attack."

“Very well then. Tonight will be the time for me, Xin Ji, to sit in the seat of the City Lord’s Mansion.”

Upon hearing this, the subordinate tactfully bowed and said, "Your subordinate greets Your Lordship!"

"Hahaha, very good! You've been clever since you were little. Don't worry, once I get Qingyun City, I will definitely treat you well!"

"Keep investigating, and report back after further investigation!"

Chu Chen watched as Lan Tianlei sent all the guards in the city lord's mansion out.

Then he said to Lan Tianlei, "You should also go to the city wall and follow Chu Shiwu. He will protect your safety."

Lan Tianlei had no reason to refuse after hearing this: "Brother Chu, I am not afraid of death. It is only right and proper that I stand on the city wall with the soldiers and advance and retreat together."

After saying that, he disguised himself and set off with the guards.

Lan Tianlei's family members were all sent to a secret room in the city lord's mansion to ensure their safety.

Looking at the empty city lord's mansion, Chu Chen had a thought, and two hundred machine gunners appeared in the courtyard.

Just then, Xiao Shiliu's voice came through the earpiece: "Godfather, there's a person dressed like a guard heading towards the city lord's mansion."

After hearing this, Chu Chen thought to himself, "Lan Tianlei, even you can't guard against Xin Jitong's hidden agents."

"Then arrest him and interrogate him thoroughly!"

"Understood, Godfather!"

Chu Chen was quite relieved; as long as Xiao Shiliu made a move, that person wouldn't be able to escape.

However, in order to avoid attracting attention, Chu Chen quickly made arrangements for the two hundred people and then had them hide.

He himself immediately went into Lan Tianlei's study.

Then, an artificial human was released, dressed up as Lan Tianlei, and given instructions that he must not leave the room under any circumstances.

After finishing these tasks, he flew up to the rooftop and disappeared from the city lord's mansion in no time.

A short while later, he arrived at Xiao Shiliu's side.

Beneath Xiao Shiliu was a man lying like a dead dog.

Upon seeing Chu Chen arrive, Little Sixteen immediately called out, "Godfather, long time no see!"

"Um, have we been gone for an hour?"

"Godfather is so boring. Look, this is the guy!"

Chu Chen pushed Xiao Shiliu aside, walked straight to the man, and then pulled out a dagger.

"Say it!"

"What did you say? If you have the guts, kill me. Otherwise, don't even think about getting a single piece of information out of me."

After listening, Chu Chen shook his head and plunged a knife into his thigh.

"I hate people like you the most! You never say anything before, you just have to draw blood!"

"Also, let me tell you who I am. Everyone calls me Young Master Chu. What do you think is the only condition for you to survive in my hands?"

The man's heart skipped a beat when he heard the name Young Master Chu.

He forced back the pain in his thigh and said, "Young Master Chu, I... I'm just a lowly soldier and I don't know anything about the city lord."

"Heh, keep pretending. What did Xin Jitong give you to make you work so hard?"

After saying that, a Glock appeared in his hand, and he fired more than ten bullets at the wall.

The bullets hit the wall, kicking up a lot of mud and sand.

"Let me tell you, I've planted a thousand soldiers equipped with this item in the city lord's mansion. Do you think Xin Jitong has a chance of winning?"

Upon seeing Chu Chen's incredible weapon skills, the man immediately deflated.

"What does Young Master Chu want to know?"

Where is the leader of the kobolds?

"Ah...you mean Commander Ao? He's in the Deputy City Lord's Mansion!"

Commander Ao, Chu Chen chuckled after hearing this, thinking to himself that it was quite interesting. He shared the same surname as Ao Tianhai, so he must know where Ao Tianhai was.

Then he turned to look at him and said, "Your mission is complete."

After saying that, he turned the dagger and slit his throat.

"Little Sixteen, keep a close eye on the people in that house. I'll be coming tonight, so listen to my instructions."

Xiao Shiliu nodded, dragged the person along, and disappeared into the alley.

After finishing these tasks, Chu Chen flew upstairs to wait for nightfall.

Tonight, he must both eliminate the traitor Xin Jitong and capture the so-called Commander Ao.

Xin Jitong was not to be feared; he had faith in the strength of the two hundred machine gunners.

As soon as the fighting starts, he will enter Xin Jitong's residence.

As the sun slowly set in the west, the entire Qingyun City fell silent.

From the streets and alleys of the city, some constables carrying sharp weapons slowly emerged.

Their goal was the same: the City Lord's Mansion on the central avenue of Qingyun City.

Inside the city lord's mansion, the guards stationed on the perimeter also began to tense up.

Inside, under the cover of darkness, machine gunners, wearing night vision goggles, took their designated positions.

On the city wall, Lan Tianlei tightly gripped the dog-leg knife that Chu Chen had given him.

He would occasionally swallow hard, quietly gazing in the direction outside the city walls.
