As soon as night fell, ten thousand Jin soldiers quietly advanced to the west city under the cover of night. Most of the houses in the west city were not demolished, giving the Jin soldiers a space to cover. Ten thousand Jin soldiers were scattered in the streets and alleys of the west city. There were 30,000 Jin cavalry in the outer city, and 30,000 Jin soldiers were ready. They were commanded by general Wanyan Loushi. They hid behind a hill outside, about five miles away from the inner city. Under the night sky, the Song army in the inner city could not see them.

This is a reenactment of the scene of attacking the outer city. Wanyan Zongwang was quite nervous. There were only fifty thunders left in their sky-shaking thunders. This was a special item to be sent back to the Jin Kingdom to study. Now they have to be used to break the city. Just an hour ago, Wanyan Zongwang received the order from Marshal Du to break the city, asking him to use the same trick again, using the night cover to blow up the city gate with the sky-shaking thunder.

Wanyan Zongwang was immediately at the gate of Xiwazi in the outer city prefecture. He looked at the guards on the top of the city. Based on his previous experience in breaking through the west city, the Song army would pay attention to the city walls on the north and south sides, and would ignore the east and west sides. The city was very quiet and there was no patrolling soldiers. Perhaps the Song army thought that they would not attack the city for the time being during the negotiations, so Wanyan Zongwang thought secretly.

At this time, a soldier ran over and whispered to report: "You are ready to go, you can set off at any time!"

Wanyan Zongwang looked at the top of the city and looked at the night color again. The night color was thick enough. He nodded and said, "Let's do it!"

A hundred soldiers in black dress were divided into three groups and quickly marched towards the city wall. There was also a moat under the inner city, and no houses were allowed to be built within a hundred steps of the city wall. This made the hundred Jin soldiers who needed to go to the city wall to pass through an empty space of 100 steps wide. However, this was also in Wanyan Zongwang's plan. The three Jin soldiers rushed out of the alley and immediately crawled on the ground. With the help of weeds on the ground, they slowly crawled forward. There were three people behind them holding long wooden boards, which were intended to build bridges on the moat.

Hundreds of Jin soldiers approached the city wall silently, but they could not have imagined that at the top of the city, a pair of cold eyes were watching their every move.

Special night-view soldiers have been deployed on the top of the city, composed of more than a hundred soldiers with excellent night vision. They are responsible for keeping abreast of the movements in the outer city at night. Therefore, when ten thousand Jin soldiers quietly entered the west outside city, they were discovered by several night-view soldiers in the west and immediately notified the main general Li Yanqing.

Li Yanqing had already seen the soldiers crawling forward on the ground. He was a little impressed by Wanyan Zongwang's mind. He actually used the same trick again, and it was Xicheng, but it turned Xiwaicheng into Xineicheng. When everyone thought that it would be impossible for Xiwaicheng to break up again, Wanyan Zongwang did this.

Li Yanqing picked up an iron fire thunder casually. At this moment, Zhou Lin, the general stationed in the West City, quickly stepped forward and whispered: "Master, the water is ready!"

Li Yanqing turned around and saw more than a thousand civilians carrying a load of water on the city. Three rows of water buckets had been placed under the battlements, densely packed with more than 2,000 barrels. Since Li Yanqing told the generals that water was a natural enemy that shook the sky and thunder, almost everyone has done a lot of work on the water. Starting this morning, the city under the east, west, south, north and west were filled with buckets, with tens of thousands of barrels of water.

Li Yanqing smiled and shook his head. Two thousand barrels of water were too much, and at most twenty or thirty barrels were enough. However, he did not say it and smiled and said, "Then there is the crossbow!"

"It's ready!"

I saw two thousand soldiers holding divine arms crossbows in their hands, ready.

"Have the reinforcements arrived?" Li Yanqing asked again.

"I've come, just wait under the city."

Since it has been judged that the Jin soldiers are going to attack Xicheng, it is not only a surprise attack. If the surprise attack fails, it is likely to launch a large-scale attack. Li Yanqing must be prepared for the response. In addition to his own 5,000 troops, Li Yanqing transferred 5,000 people from North City and South City, and at the same time sent 30,000 militias to prepare for the war.

"Let everyone be prepared and listen to my orders at any time!"

A hundred Jin soldiers had already arrived at the moat. At this time, there was still no movement on the top of the city. They put a long wooden board on the moat, ran over the board, and their bodies were pressed against the city wall.

The Jin soldiers had the first experience of bombing the outer city gate. They cooperated with each other and soon the three teams merged into two, distributed on both sides of the city gate, one in the south and one in the north, about 60 people in the south and forty people in the north, each carrying ten thunders.

Today, the Jin soldiers were going to deal with Liangmen, which was one of the main gates of Xicheng. There was also a Zhengmen Gate to the south. However, because the Zhengmen Gate was the Bian River after entering, which was a natural barrier to the cavalry, the Jin soldiers set their target on Liangmen.

The blasting of the hundred Jin soldiers was very well organized, just like the first time that they exploded the west gate of the outer city. They first exploded the first one, and then loosened the bricks next to the gate, and then placed ten thunders. In this way, even if the copper gate cannot be blown up, they can blow up the structures on both sides of the copper gate and make the copper gate fall down intact. As for the twenty thunders, it is because the Liangmen is a urn city, and they also need to explode another city gate inside, but that city gate is much easier, and a thunder can solve the problem.

The centurion waved, and the two soldiers rushed up. They skillfully placed a thunderclap on the link between the copper gate and the city wall. The next step was to ignite the fire.

At this time, Li Yanqing nodded, and immediately more than a dozen soldiers picked up the bucket and poured it down. More than a dozen buckets of water suddenly poured down, like a waterfall falling from the sky. The two soldiers below were caught off guard and were soaked by the water. The thunder of the sky was also affected by the water, turning into a wet mine.

The Jin soldiers below were shocked. At this moment, an iron fire thunder was thrown down and landed among several Jin soldiers close to the city wall. The iron fire thunder suddenly exploded. The two Jin soldiers could not dodge and were blown away.

The sudden splash of water and explosion immediately scared the hundred soldiers to death and jumped into the moat regardless of everything. More than a dozen soldiers holding thunder rushed towards the small bridge. The crossbowmen on the top of the city appeared together and aimed at the Jin soldiers below to shoot arrows.

For a moment, arrows were like rain, and the Jin soldiers screamed and were shot by arrows. More than a dozen Jin soldiers who had just run to the edge of the wooden board with the thunder in their arms were also shot overturned by arrows. They fell into the river together with the thunder. More than twenty soldiers who had just climbed ashore could not escape the thunder and fell to the ground and died. In just a moment, more than a hundred Jin soldiers died under the thunder and did not have a single survivor.

At the same time as the Iron Fire Thunder exploded, Wanyan Zongwang knew that their surprise attack had failed. It was not an explosion of the thunder, but under the city wall, countless black shadows appeared at the top of the city and shot arrows under the city. Wanyan Zongwang clenched his fists in hatred, but he quickly relaxed. It was normal for the surprise attack to fail. They used the surprise attack to break through the outer city, and of course the other party would be prepared.

Wanyan Zongwang then ordered coldly: "Transfer my order and retreat to the camp!"

They did not carry siege weapons and had to retreat.

Ten thousand troops quickly evacuated to the north, and the 30,000 cavalry far away also received orders to retreat and quickly retreated towards the direction of the camp.

The Jin soldiers' retreat to the north was no longer concealed. The black shadows surged, the horse's hooves were sounding like thunder, and thousands of troops retreated northward. The soldiers on the city wall saw the Jin soldiers' attempts tonight. Many people were scared and sweated. This turned out to be a big battle.

Zhou Lin walked up and asked in confusion: "Since he was so prepared, he took it away, which is puzzling!"

Li Yanqing smiled slightly, "Maybe they didn't expect to climb the wall and enter the city!"

Zhou Lin was stunned for a moment and couldn't help laughing.

In the marshal's tent, Wanyan Zongwang reported to Marshal Du Wanyan Xie tonight's defeat with treacherous. He thought Wanyan Xie would be furious, but he did not expect that Wanyan Xie would not speak, but seemed to be restless, as if waiting for something. Wanyan Zongwang was a little suspicious, and Marshal Du had not listened to his report at all.

"Marson, what happened?" Wanyan Zongwang asked carefully.

Wanyan Xie waved his hand, and he was very annoyed and didn't want to explain, but paced back and forth anxiously. Wanyan Zongwang didn't dare to ask any more, so he could only accompany him to wait for some news quietly?

Just then, a sound of running came from outside, and a personal soldier almost rushed into the tent, "Master, it's confirmed, it's true!"

"ah!"

Wanyan Xie also shouted suddenly, swept the things on the table to the ground, kicked the table over, and suddenly pulled out the sword and rushed away from the tent angrily.

Wanyan Zongwang was stunned when he saw Marshal Du walking away. He quickly grabbed a personal soldier and asked, "What happened?"

"Don't you know, the plague has spread."

"What!" Wanyan Zongwang was shocked and asked anxiously: "What the hell is going on?"

The personal soldiers smiled bitterly and said, "Dongzhai and Xizhai had vomiting and diarrhea last night, but these soldiers were afraid of being sent to the quarantine camp, so they concealed their condition. As a result, news came tonight that people died in the Dongzhai and all soldiers in one account died. Preliminary statistics show that about a few thousand people in Dongzhai and Xizhai had diarrhea symptoms. The general asked the military doctor to diagnose it. The deputy general also heard the report just now, but the result was true, and it was all plague."
