Wei Ru roared, as if a wild beast had been released from its cage, with a fierce aura coming towards him.
Upstairs of the majestic city gate. The flag with the word "Zhang" was hung high and moved with the wind. Large numbers of soldiers stood on the city, either wearing armor or jackets, with serious faces.
These Han soldiers have been training for some time. It’s no longer a new recruit’s balls that can be rubbed at will.
Among these soldiers, there were many weapons for defending the city. Bundles of arrows, piles of rocks, etc.
Listening to Wei Ru's call, the soldiers unanimously cast their eyes on Zhang Bu who was standing in front of the city gate tower.
Zhang Bu is neatly draped, standing with a sword in his hand, his body upright, like a javelin, reaching straight into the sky. His expression was stern, and after hearing Wei Ru's words, his expression did not change at all.
Fighter?
He had already heard about Wei Ru's reputation.
He wasn't crazy, so how could he fight with Wei Ru?
Even if the general refuses to fight, nothing will happen. However, because Wei Ru was a female general and was called into battle by the female general, Zhang Bu did not accept the challenge.
The soldiers were indeed disappointed and their morale dropped slightly.
Wei Ru was also disappointed.
"Zhang Bu. I think you should just change your name to Lu Bu. That might give you courage." Wei Ru mocked, tightened the reins of his horse, turned around and returned to the camp.
"Wei Xiaowei. Don't worry. We are not going to attack the big city of Jiang County, we are just pretending to attack." Long Qie was also neatly dressed and stood under the camp gate with his sword in hand. He raised his head and comforted Wei Ru.
"Thank you Captain Long for your concern, I didn't care." Wei Ru turned over and dismounted, handed the horse to the soldier beside him, took off his helmet and held it to his chest.
"How is the assembly of the heavy siege equipment going?" Wei Ru looked up and saw that the craftsmen were busy and asked.
"It's going well. We should be able to attack the city tomorrow morning."
Long Qie looked back with a slight smile on his face.
"Yes." Wei Ru nodded and entered the camp gate with Long Qie. The guarding soldiers immediately closed the camp gate.
Nothing to say for a day. Early the next morning. Wu Nianjun's soldiers began to bury pots and make rice. The soldiers rested for a while after eating and drinking, and the heavy siege equipment was assembled.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
“Dong dong dong!!!”
With the melodious sound of horns and passionate drums. Wei Ru, who was in charge of leading the battle, got on her horse and rode her horse out of the camp gate with a horse in hand. After the soldiers and horses were arranged in order, she pointed the horse at the city wall and shouted: "Break this city."
"kill!!!!"
The soldiers did not hesitate, and amidst the sound of drums and horns, they roared to death. Pushing the siege equipment towards the city.
Or in front of the city gate tower. Zhang Bu pulled out the steel sword from his waist and raised it, shouting: "Guard the city. When General Jin comes back, everyone will be rewarded."
...........
The troops from Beishan Fort came out in full force to attack Jiang County. It immediately attracted the attention of all interested people in Yingqing Mansion.
No one doubted that this was a feint.
A plan to cross Chencang secretly.
Jiang County is a big city with a large amount of food, grass and luggage. If Wu Nian's army can break through Jiang County, it will be able to obtain a large amount of supplies, and its momentum will be at its peak.
Conquering this city is of great significance.
In fact, Wu Nian and others' plan was actually to Dingxian County.
This county town is neither economically prosperous nor strategically located. It is an ordinary small town.
But it is not easy to attack this city head-on.
morning.
The gate of Dingxian City is open, and people come in and out of the city from time to time.
Near the center of the city, there is a [Zhou Mansion]. It is the residence of Captain Zhou Dingyuan who is guarding here.
Zhou Dingyuan was originally a fugitive from the army and did not enjoy a few days of happiness. He was suddenly recruited as a captain of thousands by the Mongolian people, which was a bit high.
I bought this top-notch mansion in Dingxian County and took in five concubines. My life was extremely comfortable.
However, he did not slack off. He led troops and practiced martial arts every day, all in a satisfactory manner.
Inside the pavilion. Zhou Dingyuan sat shirtless on a stone stool, with Gangna's concubine Liu in his arms.
A strong man was kneeling on one knee in front of him.
Zhou Dingyuan had a look of amusement on his face, and waved his hand to let the strong man who reported the news leave.
"As expected of Wu Nian from Beishan Fort. He actually chose to attack Jiang County, so courageous." Zhou Dingyuan picked up the wine glass on the stone table and drank it cleanly.
"That's just right. Let Zhang Bu worry about it. I'm safe here." Zhou Dingyuan laughed loudly, stretched out his hand and swam like a snake around Mrs. Liu's body in his arms, causing Mrs. Liu to laugh.
.........
At night, it's quiet.
Tieniu and Zhang Jin led five elite soldiers from one hundred households to the northeast corner of the city with digging tools.
They stopped about two hundred meters away from the city.
There are torches on the city wall, and you can clearly see people patrolling and standing guard. If you get closer, you will be in danger of being discovered.
"Two hundred meters away. We have about three hours to dig the tunnel. Time is tight."
"If we were discovered, we wouldn't have a second chance."
Zhang Jin's face was a little solemn.
Their location is relatively remote, and no one will find them in the dead of night. But it's different during the day.
With such a big hole in the ground and the accumulated soil, everyone knew they were digging a tunnel.
"Do it now." Tieniu was more straightforward and greeted the soldiers.
Armed with large shovels, shirtless soldiers immediately began digging. The soil here in Ding County is very loose, and the excavation progress is very fast.
Every time they advance a certain distance, the soldiers will use wooden planks and pillars prepared long ago to fix them to prevent collapse.
The soldiers dug without stopping for a second. Finally, more than 200 meters were dug through in two and a half hours.
There is only about half an hour left before dawn.
"Take a quarter of an hour's rest." Zhang Jin looked at the sky, then at the soldiers who were sweating and panting from digging the tunnel, and decided to take a rest.
A quarter of an hour passed quickly. A group of soldiers armed with big shovels entered the tunnel first and led the way. Then Zhang Jin and Tieniu led all the troops into the tunnel.
This battle is very dangerous. If their underground operation was discovered, the city was prepared and ambushed near the exit.
Not only would their entire army be annihilated, they would at least pay a considerable price.
soon. The soldiers in front reached the end of the tunnel. They took shovels and began to dig upward diagonally.
"Boom" sound.
As the soil fell, the tunnel was dug. Zhang Jin and Tieniu immediately took out the steel knives from their waists and rushed out at the lead.
"ah!!!"
A woman screamed.
Zhang Jin and Tieniu's eyes flashed, although they were shocked, they were not confused. He quickly looked around.
