Chapter 90
: Snatch the Door
Four people in a row, four people in a row, the soldiers from the army camp continued to flow out through the exits in the house, and the people coming up were constantly expanding their exits.
Chen Kefu stood by the exit, watching the elite soldiers of Baizhanpo Military Camp, gushing out from there one by one. His brows, which had been nervous and worried, gradually stretched out, and the corners of his mouth finally curled up slightly again.
At this point, half of Liaodong City had fallen into his hands.
When Chen Guang finally gathered more than 500 elite soldiers from the Pojun camp and led his men to quietly rush to the south gate of the inner city, no one in Liaodong City discovered the situation here.
Although four secret passages were launched together, the real elite siege was Nancheng. The role of the Sui soldiers who entered the city on the other three secret passages was to restrain and attract the defenders of the three outer gates. They would set off about a quarter of an hour later than Nancheng.
At this time, the defenders in Liaodong City had just changed their defenses, and the sky was just dark, and the defenders who had just changed into the city were the most relaxed. No one expected that the Sui army would attack the city at this time.
What no one expected was that the Sui army did not attack from the city gate, but attacked from behind the city.
Hu Hai led the five hundred most elite soldiers of the army camp to penetrate the south gate silently. The distance of a hundred steps was not far. In a short while, they took advantage of the night to cover the city gate. The dozens of selected experts took daggers to deal with the soldiers along the way. When less than twenty steps were left from the city gate, they were finally discovered by a defender.
"Enemy attack!"
The man only had time to shout, and was shot to the ground by the crossbow of the soldiers of the Pojun camp.
The shout suddenly touched the fragile hearts of the defenders on the city. Everyone was panicked and picked up their spears and swords, looking blankly at the city gate.
But after looking for a long time, I found that under the bright torches on the top of the city, there was no one on the empty flat ground before the Nancheng. The Sui army in the distance was still brightly lit, and there was no sign of people coming out.
Someone breathed a sigh of relief and scolded, "Which damn boy is it that he dares to report military affairs indiscriminately? Don't you know that lying about military affairs is going to behead your head? Damn it, it scares me all over."
As soon as he finished speaking, screams rang out of the gate below the city, and there were also sounds of weapons intersecting, and they became louder and louder.
The defenders at the top of the city finally found something wrong. Everyone turned their heads desperately to look at the city gate. At this time, a large group of Sui troops had suddenly emerged at the city gate. They waved their swords one by one, cutting melons and vegetables at the defenseless defenders. After a while, they had already broken into the city gate.
The defenders on the city were shocked and could not care about how these Sui people appeared in the city. With a whistle, they pulled out a long sword from their waists and shouted, "The Sui army has entered the city, ring the alarm bell, stop them, don't let them steal the city gate."
Under the command of the commander, the defenders at the city walls rang out the alarm bell at the city walls, and teams of soldiers rushed from the city walls toward the city gate. Even the patrol troops in the city began to come to the south of the city.
When Chen Kefu heard the sudden noisy movement and the sound of fighting in the sky, he also understood that the Liao people finally noticed his movement. He hurriedly shouted to Mao Yi, "Send rocket signals to the sky, so that Li Jie can lead Minzhuang to the south city. Half of the other people who had already come out rushed to the south gate to support General Hu Hai, and half of them rushed to help Chen Guang grab the inner city. Hurry!"
At the command of the general, the soldiers also threw down the small wooden sticks in their mouths, shouted one by one, and roared, and took off their swords and soldiers under the leadership of various officers, and divided into two teams of troops and rushed towards both sides.
Chen Kefu picked up the horizontal sword in his hand and began to follow the team to rush towards the South City Gate. The most important thing now is to open the South City Gate and let Li Jie and the others come in. If they cannot take the South City Gate, they will be caught by the Liao people. Without Li Jie and the others' siege equipment, it will undoubtedly be difficult for him to capture the inner city in a short period of time.
As soon as they arrived at the south city gate, there was already a group of battles. Hu Hai's men were only about ten steps away from the city gate, but there were constantly surrounded by various Liao people at the south city gate, and even some residents rushed over with kitchen knives and long forks.
"Shoot the arrow!"
Chen Kefu shouted, thousands of people equipped with crossbows were rushing towards the defenders who were constantly rushing to the city gate. Most of the defenders who were running came with swords and fell to the ground with screams for a while.
The troops of the Pojun camp and the new army were equipped with crossbows, both light and fast. At this time, they were divided into several batches, shooting, waiting, and preparing. Advance in a row, and bursts of continuous rain of arrows suddenly stunned the Liao army who rushed over. The Liao people in front of the southern city gate fell one by one, and the ground was suddenly covered with corpses.
With endless screams, there were suddenly a sound of fighting from other directions. Chen Kefu was delighted, and the Sui army in the other three secret passages finally attacked.
Li Jie and others who had been preparing to set out in the Liaodong camp have been paying close attention to the situation in the Liaodong city. Although he was really resentful that Chen Kefu sent him as the third in charge of the army to lead a group of strong people, he also understood that Chen Kefu's siege strategy proposed was indeed feasible. As long as he took the Liaodong city, he would not be able to escape the great achievements of his general Zhe Chong Lang.
At such a moment, he naturally could not drag him down. Taking the Liaodong City was a great contribution, so how could he not be able to make it with his future?
After waiting for a long time, I was almost impatient when I finally heard a burst of tearing sounds from the city, followed by several rockets that soared into the sky, which were extremely dazzling in the night sky.
Li Jie excitedly pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted, "Brothers, the general has already attacked the city, and he will be able to open the city gate for us soon. It is time to make achievements. All brothers, take weapons and take siege equipment to fight with me. Leave a name in history and make a fortune at this time, rush to fight."
All the villagers were extremely excited at this time, and their excited eyes were blinking red. Under Li Jie's command, the villagers carrying simple cloud ladders rushed towards the south gate like locusts passing through the border, like dark clouds.
Behind them, the big guys, trenchers, cloud cars, and flying towers were also slowly pushing towards the South City Gate under the guidance of the people. The remaining hundreds of thousands of people shouted, and one of them carried a cloth bag full of soil and rushed towards the South City Gate.
The fastest group of strong and strong men rushed to the south were still dozens of steps away from the south city gate, and they had already seen a crack slowly opening with a loud squeak.
When all the civilians saw this, they all looked like they were injected with chicken blood. They carried various tools and rushed straight into the southern city gate as if they were desperate. Before the city gate was completely opened, the first civilians who arrived had already swarmed in from the half-opened city gate. The scene was like a flood that collapsed, like mercury leaking from the ground, and instantly poured into the southern city.
Chen Kefu held the bloody horizontal sword and shouted loudly, "All the civilians who entered the city, carry your equipment and rush towards the south gate of the inner city. There will be orders. I will be the first warrior to rush into the inner city. I will reward 10 kilograms of gold. If anyone gets Gao Jianwu, I will reward 50 kilograms of gold regardless of life or death. Let's fight!"
With Chen Kefu's reward, the powerful people who poured in like a flood, led by the soldiers led by Chen Kefu, rushed towards the inner city for a while. The defenders or the people in the city who had just arrived from all over the way were like mantis blocking a car, and were ruthlessly swept by Chen Kefu's army and were instantly swallowed up in this surging tide.
Chen Kefu couldn't help but feel excited by this trend at this time. No wonder those peasant army uprisings have always liked to conquer the people. In the past, he always felt that it would not have any effect, but would only weaken the combat effectiveness of the army.
But now feeling the momentum of the army in front of him, he couldn't help but feel that sometimes, it's really useful to have a lot of people. If he only had ten thousand troops to attack the city tonight, they might have been in a tough battle at this time.
However, with these hundreds of thousands of civilians, they can expand their advantages to the greatest extent when they have the advantage. Fighting a tailwind is the ace trick of this mob. Like the situation in front of you, the harmony is the wind that helps the fire, and the fire helps the wind.
After not sweeping away the defenders on the road without mercy, Chen Kefu and the others quickly arrived at the south gate of the inner city, where fierce battles were still fierce. Although Shen Guang and his men caught the Liao people off guard, the inner city strictly closed the city gate according to the wartime rules. Although they rushed over, they had no siege equipment but had no way to use the city wall.
They had to fight fiercely against the Liao army that was constantly surrounding them according to Chen Kefu's order. Now most of the Liao people are in the outer city. As long as the troops that are cut off from the outer city to enter the inner city, the Liao army will have the defense of the inner city. At that time, as long as the Sui army clears the defenders of the outer city, they will not be able to withstand it for long.
Looking at the blood-covered brothers from the Pojun camp, Chen Kefu yelled, "Build a ladder and attack the city!"
Shen Guang and others, who were struggling to support, saw that the large army had arrived, and even the siege equipment such as the cloud ladder had been transported over, so they were excited and swung their swords to kill two Liao people near them. They shouted, "Brothers, build the cloud ladder, let's go to the city! Take Gao Jianwu and recover Liaodong City!"
