The Sui army tampered with the matter before evacuating Loufan Pass. They set up a secret passage to retake Loufan Pass.

Wang Xuanjing stared at the city wall for a moment, waved his hand gently, and more than a dozen soldiers followed him and rushed towards the city wall. Soon, they ran to the city wall, with a large stone weighing about a thousand pounds ten feet away from the city wall.

The soldiers worked hard together to slowly move the big stone away, and then dig out the floating soil on it, revealing a stone slab buried below, with copper rings on the stone slab. The soldiers held the copper ring and pulled open the stone slab, revealing a dark cave below.

After the air circulated for a moment, Wang Xuanjing was the first to jump into the tunnel. The tunnel was about two feet long and only four feet high. They could only crawl into the city with difficulty.

The exit of the tunnel is located in an aisle between the warehouse in Loufan Pass and the city wall. It is blocked from front to back, just a dead alley. Above is a female wall. Unless there are soldiers standing by the wall, no one will be found out.

A stone slab on the ground in the alley loosened, and the stone slab was first removed and confirmed that there was no one in the city above his head. Then he completely removed the stone slab, revealing the tunnel exit. Wang Xuanjing jumped out, and the subordinates behind him followed one by one.

But the alley can only accommodate more than a dozen people. The first thing Wang Xuanjing and his subordinates did after coming out of the tunnel was to open up a new space for accommodation. However, they had already arranged it before. Wang Xuanjing groped on the wall of the corner for a moment and whispered: "It's this!"

Two soldiers stepped forward, holding an iron crowbar in their hands and pried it gently on the wall. A brick became loose. They carefully pulled out three wall bricks, and a hole appeared in front of them. Wang Xuanjing reached in and touched it. There were bags of food inside. When they evacuated, two thousand stones of food were specially piled up here. It seemed that the Turks did not touch the food.

A three-foot-wide distance was specially left between the grain and the wall, and a clearing was also left in the middle of the grain pile, just for the preparation today.

Everyone started to work together and demolished a big hole in the warehouse wall. Wang Xuanjing took the lead and went into the big hole and ran into the warehouse.

A quarter of an hour later, more than a hundred soldiers entered the warehouse, leaving two people outside the city. They were responsible for covering the entrance outside the city with soil and grass to prevent being discovered by Turkic patrols. The soldiers restored the aisles and walls at the same time. Even if someone stood on the wall, they could not see any changes below.

The warehouse was very quiet. This was the grain warehouse. The gate was closed and the ground was covered with a thin layer of dust. It seemed that the Turks were not used. The next door was an arsenal. All of them were emptied before the Sui army retreated. It was estimated that the Turks used the next door warehouse.

Hundreds of soldiers were waiting for Wang Xuanjing's orders. According to the plan, Wang Xuanjing led twenty people to pick up the Sui soldiers who came down from the cliff, and eighty other people went to seize the southern city gate.

They were not worried about the northern city gate, and tens of thousands of Turkic troops were stationed about ten miles north of Loufan Pass. Even if they found abnormalities in the city, they would not come so quickly.

But the 10,000 garrisons outside the southern city gate were one mile away, which was the original Sui army's barracks. Once the city was warned, the Turkic reinforcements in the south would arrive quickly, so the southern city gate must be seized in advance.

Wang Xuanjing's deputy general is Du Ping, a native of Qijun. He is an Eagle Strike General. He is only twenty-one years old. He has been a scout for four years. He is bold and meticulous and has excellent martial arts skills. They have conducted countless simulation trainings before, including emergency responses to various unexpected situations. Every soldier knows what he should do. This is also the main general Wei Wentong knows that the significance of seizing Loufan Pass is of great significance. There must be no mistakes. Every detail must be considered carefully.

Without orders, Wang Xuanjing winked Du Ping. He waved his hand, and twenty-three soldiers followed him to the upper window, while Du Ping led the other eighty soldiers to wait in the warehouse for a while. They would go out from the warehouse gate and head to the south gate from below.

The Sui army scouts had observed the defensive deployment of Loufan Pass on the top of the mountain before. Looking down from the air, the appearance of Loufan Pass looks quite like a paper clip. After the north and south walls merged on the east and west sides, there was a shorter wall connected to the cliffs.

A city platform was built on this shorter city wall, which was blocked on the passage from the cliff. The Turks converted the city platform to the west into a sentry tower, with several sentrymen watching the movements on the cliff day and night. There was also a team of soldiers patrol behind the tower. They only patrol within a hundred steps, in order to prevent the Sui army from climbing down from the cliff. The Turkic army used this method to capture Zihe Pass in Zihe, so they were also very prepared.

In the night, Wang Xuanjing and three soldiers who had changed into Turkic uniforms, with the help of ropes, climbed along the wall to the side of the sentry tower near the cliff. The sentry tower blocked the view of the sentry soldiers, making them unable to see that several Sui soldiers had already entered the city from the other side of the sentry tower.

The four of them stood at the top of the city against the wall of the whistle. A few more than thirty steps opposite them were a mountain covered with vines. Wang Xuanjing winked at one of the soldiers. The soldiers squatted down. Wang Xuanjing stepped on the soldiers' shoulders. The soldiers stood up slowly and held Wang Xuanjing up to the window of the whistle little by little.

The whistle tower is quite like a bunker in later generations. It has a wooden cover on its head and four wooden pillars at its four corners. After listening for a while, a low snoring sound came from inside. He slowly looked up and finally saw clearly what was happening inside the whistle tower. There were three people in the whistle tower, two of whom were already sitting on the ground against the wall and asleep, while the other leaned tiredly on the whistle tower, holding a bag of wine in his hand, drinking listlessly.

Wang Xuanjing gestured downward, meaning three people, and they fell asleep.

Another Sui soldier took out two highly poisonous daggers, and was slowly lifted up by the soldiers below, but he did not go up to explore, he wanted to deal with the two sleeping sentries.

Wang Xuanjing raised his crossbow and aimed at the sentry's neck. With a slight sound of "click!", the crossbow arrow accurately shot the sentry's neck. The poison on the crossbow arrow was bloody to the throat. The sentry fell softly and did not scream.

At this time, another soldier was lifted up. He waved his hands and shot out two sharp daggers, which also pierced the throats of the two sleeping soldiers, killing the three people silently.

Wang Xuanjing turned over and jumped off the city wall, and three soldiers flipped into the sentry tower. All three of them changed into Turkic soldiers' uniforms and dressed as sentrymen to continue to observe the cliff situation in the sentry tower.

Not long after, another twenty soldiers, led by Wang Xuanjing, also climbed up to the wall, but they were lying on the roof of the warehouse, and a team of ten Turkic patrol soldiers walked back and forth on the south city not far away. They were specifically responsible for the alert on the cliff area. Recently, they were only twenty steps away from the Sui army ambush.

The soldiers slowly raised their crossbow arrows and aimed at the ten sentries getting closer and closer. The scouts carefully observed on the cliff in advance. There were thirteen Turkic sentries, including ten of them patrols and three of them were fixed sentries. The fixed sentries had been killed, and now there were only ten patrols left.

Twenty Sui soldiers trained countless times. The two of them were responsible for shooting one person and crossing it to ensure that everything was foolproof. Each soldier knew where his target was and when to fire the arrow. They raised their crossbows together to aim at the ten patrol patrols.

When the ten patrols walked to the edge of the sentry tower and turned around and walked back, they were only twenty steps away from the Sui soldiers. When the last Turkic sentry turned around, twenty Sui soldiers shot crossbow arrows at the same time, like a sudden storm. Twenty arrows shot the necks of ten Turkic sentry at the same time. Two arrows were accurately inserted into the necks of each person, and they fell to the ground and died together, with almost no sound.

At this time, the Sui army soldiers set up a cloak and formed a circle. A fire scythe was lit in the cloak. There was no fire around and it was blocked by the cloak. However, from above, it could be clearly seen that this was the Sui army scout sending a signal to the top of the mountain.
