The sky gradually became darker, as if a layer of gauze was covering the ground. People's vision is a little blurry from a distance. Several feet of city walls stand on the ground, and the faint sound of rushing water can be heard from further away.
These are several rivers near Sihong. One of the rivers was dug into its embankment, and the river water was diverted to form a moat around the city wall.
The gate of the city was closed, torches were blazing on the wall, and groups of soldiers were walking back and forth on the wall.
The city gate captain rested inside the city gate tower and did not need to patrol outside as often as ordinary soldiers.
At this time.
There was a noise outside, and the captain of the city gate frowned, and immediately stood up and walked out. He immediately saw hundreds of broken troops not far outside the city.
"We are Suo Fei, the commander of the second general's department. Please ask the captain to open the city gate and let us enter the city..."
Among the defeated troops, a man shouted loudly.
"It's getting late. You stay outside all night and then enter the city tomorrow!" a school official on the city wall shouted loudly.
According to the military law of the former Qin Dynasty, the city must be closed and curfewed at night.
Especially in cities where soldiers and horses are stationed, this rule must be strictly observed.
"This...it's not time to close the city yet. Captain, please be accommodating. We have traveled hundreds of miles on the road without food or water. We can no longer hold on!"
The man outside cried out and begged.
The school officer who just spoke had a look of hesitation on his face. When he saw the school captain from Chengmen approaching, the school officer quickly said: "Captain, another group of defeated troops has returned. Do you think so?"
The captain of the city gate stood on the edge of the battlement. He glanced below and saw more than 300 people not far away in ragged clothes. Some of them were being helped by others. They were indeed tired and about to fall to the ground.
Some people seemed to be injured. If they were left outside all night, many of them might never get up again after one night.
"It's indeed not time to close the city yet, let's let them in!"
The captain of the city gate thought for a while and said.
Maybe among these people, there are people related to General Wei and several governors. If they are left out, there will definitely be trouble in the future.
Selling face to the other party now may lead to more options in the future.
Crunch!
The gate noose rose and the gate slowly opened.
"Walk!"
Beside the person who called the door just now, Fan Yin put a dagger against his lower back and whispered an order.
In order to deceive the enemy this time, Fan Yin carefully selected more than a hundred prisoners. After these days of coercion and inducement, these prisoners had become traitors of the former Qin army.
With cold sweat on his forehead, Suo Fei felt the sharp edge behind him and immediately walked towards the city gate, followed by more than 300 people.
"Something's wrong!"
On the top of the city, the school officer frowned, feeling a little out of place when looking at the defeated troops not far from the city.
"No, they walk faster than normal people. They still have strength. They are tired and hungry and can't hold on. It's all fake!"
An idea flashed in the school officer's mind, and he thought of this.
In an instant, his expression changed wildly, and he immediately shouted: "Close the city gate quickly, there is something wrong with these people!"
Before the captain of the city gate realized what was going on, he saw the hundreds of "broken soldiers" under the city suddenly become more energetic and energetic, and suddenly accelerated their speed and rushed towards the city gate.
At this time, dozens of people were guarding the city gate, and the captain responsible for guarding the city gate was still in the rooms on both sides of the city gate.
Woo! A shrill signal sounded from the city walls.
"There are enemies!"
The soldiers of the former Qin Dynasty near the city gate rushed towards the city gate cave. At this time, Fan Yin led the selected elite to the city gate cave.
kill!
The elite soldiers selected by the East Lake Army and Benshang all practiced military exercises, and their physique and strength were much stronger than before. They roared wildly, drew their swords, and drowned dozens of former Qin soldiers.
Click! Fan Yin picked up the sword of the former Qin soldier, struck it hard on the noose, and cut off the noose of the city gate.
"There are enemies stealing the city, push them out quickly!"
The captain in charge of the city gate defense hurried over with hundreds of soldiers in hand, sword in hand.
There were soldiers chasing after him in a hurry. They did not expect that the enemy would sneak attack at this time.
After the school captain ran not far from the city gate, he glanced at it and immediately shouted: "There are only a few hundred people, brothers, come with me!"
He has good abilities and has the basic qualities of a general.
Without hesitation, he led his men towards the enemy and fought against the two hundred elite men of the East Lake Army.
"My lord is right behind us, kill him!"
Fan Yin had also rushed to the front. With a flash of his sword, the former Qin soldiers in front of him screamed and fell to the ground.
The elite of the East Lake Army can practice the military training method.
Fan Yin, who is a member of a hundred households, can learn more advanced military training methods, and his strength is different from before.
The experience and skills that he had gained through continuous fighting with the beggar army, coupled with his stronger physique and strength, exerted a stronger effect.
He has reached the pinnacle of a first-order creature.
After hearing the word "Lord", the momentum of the two hundred selected East Lake Army elites rose again.
They roared wildly and charged forward desperately.
To tear apart all the enemies in front of you.
It was as if a flame was burning in their hearts. This flame forged them into sharp blades that cut through the waves. They kept pushing forward, killing hundreds of former Qin soldiers and retreating one after another.
The lord Wang Jing taught them the military training method and gave them the steps to become stronger. He also promised that as long as they made meritorious deeds, they would be rewarded with fields according to the amount of merit...
Kung Fu and fields! Only the Lord can give them these.
For this hope, everyone in the East Lake Army is willing to shed their blood for the Lord.
The former Qin soldiers did not receive these benefits. Both in terms of combat effectiveness and fighting will, they were several levels behind the East Lake Army.
There were obviously many people, but they were killed by only two hundred Donghu soldiers. They howled and retreated in horror.
"Can't retreat! Block me!"
The former Qin Army captain kept roaring, but was unable to control the retreating soldiers. At this time, there was a rush of footsteps in the distance. The captain turned his head and was overjoyed.
It turned out that a nearby patrol of 500 people heard the noise and came to support.
It would be nice to have reinforcements! As long as reinforcements continue to arrive, these thieves will definitely be strangled.
boom!
The dull sound of horse hooves came from outside the city. This sound even overpowered the roaring and screaming of the city gate, and it quickly approached.
"cavalry!"
The smile on the former Qin military captain's face suddenly became dull, and he subconsciously looked outside along the city gate.
"The lord is here, hide to both sides!"
Fein yelled.
The elite soldiers of the East Lake Army squeezed the enemy with all their strength and hid on both sides of the city gate.
Fan Yin didn't have any armor on him. He picked up the sword from the ground and hacked continuously. Then he put the hacked corpse aside and quickly huddled against the wall of the city gate.
The Donghu soldiers retreated to both sides, and the former Qin soldiers naturally filled in the middle. Even if some of them were aware of the danger, they could not escape from the fighting crowd.
next moment.
Boom!
As if rocks collapsed, a torrent of rolling iron armor rushed in along the city gate hole.
Click, boom! The soldiers of the former Qin Dynasty who stood in front of the torrent of iron armor were like rag dolls that were knocked away. Their bones cracked and they were knocked several feet away.
"Fein, you follow Mai Tiezhang into the city and buy time for me!"
Wang Jing's voice remained where he was.
