As they arrived at the city of Chengdu one after another, the Taiping Army, which had joined together in three groups, also surrounded this colorful city with a layered battalion and formation plate. As the messengers were running around, they were increasingly thriving among these Taiping soldiers and their eagerness to fight.

After all, compared with the glorious deeds and memories that entered Chang'an City and successively named inscribed in the three major imperial cities, this time it is possible to capture another great achievement and feat of almost the entire old court, including the last emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Even if it is just a cart for participating in it, such as a small number of auxiliary soldiers and husbands, it is enough to leave behind many enduring related topics and legends; it is even the capital to brag and boast about generations in front of descendants in the future.

However, as the chief general of the three troops, he slowed down his offensive under the city. While working hard to build a camp, he kept communicating and determining the specific matters and steps of the coordinated attack.

After all, after removing the surrounding strongholds and cities, this Jinguan City, together with the small court, was just a lonely turtle in the jar. The rest was how to fight the most critical final battle in the Jianchuan Three-way Strategy with the least cost and the highest efficiency.

This is a city composed of more than a dozen rivers, two hundred bridges, more than twenty ponds, thousands of banyan trees, tens of thousands of weeping willows and countless ginkgo trees, boats and boats, fish singing at night, beautiful shadows in the water, fish swimming at shallow bottom, geese and duck playing in the water... One hundred and twenty halls, countless fireworks and the atmosphere of life gathered on earth.

But at the same time, there are three rivers around the city from the Minjiang River system, distributed between the outermost Yangma Wall, Luocheng and Zicheng; that is also one of the most precious wealth left by Cui Anqian and Gao Pian, who led Xichuan to the office, and now it has become the main obstacle and threat to the Taiping Army.

Among them, the wall of sheep and horses surrounded by the outermost part of the city was 100 meters high; then the wall of Daluo (outer) city reached three or four meters high and two or three meters wide. During this period, the new and old city walls and arrow towers were densely packed with whistles; the eight city gates symmetrically distributed in all directions are also gate towers and inner and outer wall cities.

It can be said that in addition to the lack of morale and confusing minds on the city, the defenders on the city are almost impoverished and able to resist for a long time; but sometimes the city does not have to be conquered and broken through from the outside.

In fact, on the night when the Taiping Army completed the siege of Chengdu City, various letters from the city were offered and negotiated; like a steady stream of snowflakes, they appeared in the camp under the city one after another.

However, most of them wanted to wait for a price and find better conditions for themselves, and there were not many valuable and delusional words. However, as more and more people were recruited from local areas and materials transported from land and water to land gathered under the city, things finally changed.

Then, the invitation of Ge Congzhou, the general of the Shandong Counterattack Army, Wang Chongba from the South Counterattack Army and Zhong Yi from the East Counterattack Army, also secretly entered the joint camp in the north of the city overnight; and the first small-scale secret consultation began in Longtan Temple.

Under the bright lights in the Buddhist temple, everyone looked at the dirty cloth, wearing relatively light blue-gray cloth armor and described the handsome Eastern Army General Zhong Yi, who was the first to break the silence and solemnly confirmed:

"Is this true? Could it be a deceitful method?"

"It's almost the same, because I have successfully joined forces in Xingyuan Mansion and confirmed my corresponding identity throughout the journey; not to mention the subsequent battles between Bailao Pass, the Battle of Jinniu Road and Jiange, I have benefited a lot."

Ge Congzhou, the commander of the Northern Road Counterattack Army, wearing a leopard and a broad-eyed armor, explained without hesitation.

"At least, I don't think that the small court in Xichuan could pay such a great price just to cover up such an existence."

"Be good, this is too shocking... It's just a few years old, and has it reached this point? Then why are you going to hit me? Just tie that shit and open the city...

Wang Chongba, the South Road attacking general Wang Chongba, was still incredible:

"But you should not take it lightly; although there are people in the sects in Chengdu who are secretly informing us, there is only one chance to succeed in launching."

Ge Congzhou shook his head and said:

"Otherwise, the deployment of the Grand Governor's Office for many years has been wasted, not only will it kill our internal supporters, but it will cause more damage to the soldiers in vain. It would be our fault."

"Well, Lao Ge, then this time we will focus on you. Let's start at the same time and work together to capture Jinguan City! I will do my best to ensure the continuous transportation of the South Road..."

Wang Chongba made a quick decision that his army's advantages and expertise lie more in surface combat; fighting a few big cities like Chengdu, which are known as "One and Two", is not that simple.

“Since that’s the case,”

Then Zhong Yi also confirmed that his command was also light-equipped and mountain troops with low firearm equipment rate and newly recruited auxiliary soldiers; in terms of heavy equipment such as artillery and explosives and combat engineering regiments, he was not as good as Ge Congzhou's troops who attacked the city and camp from Shannan West Road in the north.

"Thank you brothers for your trust. A family must do their best to achieve this achievement together..."

Ge Congzhou nodded and said when he heard this:

"As for the polo master, it depends on the skills and opportunities of each of them after falling into the city."

"good.."

“Just take it like this…”

After another particularly tormenting and idle day.

As the southern defense lineup, Liu Jurong, who had been busy until late at night, was suddenly awakened by the rumbling sound of the Taiping Army's artillery calibration outside the city. However, he couldn't wait to wear armor and walk onto the wall.

Because, although the foreign country of Chengdu is now known as having more than 20,000 victories, the strength and weaknesses are also distributed in the eight gates of Jinguan City. Among them, the fifth battalion of the Shence New Army, which is stationed in the west, is the best equipment and the most complete organization.

The second is Li Maozhen's troops in charge of the east, with more than a thousand Xichuan Liuya soldiers as the backbone; it is known as the most powerful force in the city. Then the remnants of the Weirong Army in the north, at least they were also ordinary warriors who had faced the bandit army and were able to maintain the establishment.

In the end, the only garrison he was responsible for was the weakest. Because except for the hundreds of remnants he brought back, almost all the Chengdu Unity, which was re-recruited (catched) from the street market, was a raw melon seed that picked up weapons without much training.

Therefore, he even needed to strengthen patrols at night to prevent them from taking the opportunity to escape from the post or sleeping secretly at the city post. For this reason, last night he had cut off a head in the gate of the bridge and whipped and stood up to slaughter and slept over another dozen soldiers.

However, when he walked back to the Wanliqiao Gate Tower, he unexpectedly discovered that several personal soldiers who arranged to be on duty on the front of the city in the morning, and all the soldiers who were from the personal soldiers who performed military laws and inspection services disappeared together, leaving only a few soldiers who were covetous.

Liu Jurong couldn't help but shouted to the left and right with some anger and anger:

"Where are the people who are guarding the defense? The thieves outside have started to fire their guns... They are so resigning from their posts, don't you have to worry about your head!!!"

However, the next moment, a small school that hurried back to report brought incredible news:

"Not good, the governor, the gatehouse and the back camp suffered from dysfunction and this morning. Many children were vomiting and diarrhea and could not get rid of their bodies."

"Damn it!! How could it be like this..."

Liu Jurong suddenly heard the news, but his whole body trembled and his hands and feet suddenly became a little cold. How could this happen suddenly when the enemy was about to attack the city? Is it really God was going to destroy my Tang Dynasty?

However, no one could answer him at this time. Then, the soldiers who were dispatched to the Zifeng Bridge Gate soon also heard the sudden situation of sudden dysentery of the defenders on the city, and most of the soldiers had diarrhea and drowning everywhere.

"Go and check it out quickly... The morning breakfast was done by anyone?"

Liu Jurong finally came back to his senses and couldn't help but roar at the remaining personal soldiers beside him: However, it seemed to echo his roar. The next moment, the sound of cannons outside the city suddenly became neat and dense.
Chapter completed!
