Chapter 957: The Thief God's Ability

To the west of Panyu City, on the rugged and narrow mountain road, the tired surprise army was silently walking in the mountains against the cold and wet wind. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Except for the sound of footsteps and the gasps of the soldiers, there was no noise to be heard, and the discipline of more than 10,000 people was unified, as if they were one person.

In front of the team, the battle flag with the word "Deng" hunted and flew in the wind.

It's close to the sea, and the wind seems to be mixed with the salty smell of the sea.

In front of the team, Deng Ai, who was covered in sweat, was also moving forward silently, but his eyes were changing, obviously thinking about the siege battle that was about to be carried out.

"This Ma Liang is not an easy guy to deal with, I hope he is not prepared......" Deng Ai secretly prayed in his heart.

Just as his thoughts were flying, the lieutenant general in front of him had already rushed in.

What made Deng Ai feel new was that this rugged mountain road seemed to be like walking on the ground for that time, without any difficulty, and the distance of dozens of steps was like the wind in a blink of an eye, standing in front of him.

"At this time, he really has some ability, no wonder His Majesty will designate him as my lieutenant general......" Deng Ai secretly sighed.

Shi Qian didn't even take a breath, and arched his hand: "General Deng, sure enough, you guessed right, many Taiping troops who escaped from Sihui City have now fled to Panyu City, and Ma Liang seems to be alert." ”

"Sure enough!" Deng Ai's brows suddenly furrowed, and a little worry swelled up on his young face.

Deng Ai's expression was slightly frustrated, and he fell silent for a while, obviously afraid of Na Ma Liang, and had a little less confidence in whether he could take Panyu City by force.

At this time, Qian smiled secretly at that time, and said confidently: "But General Deng, you don't have to worry, even if Ma Liang has already prepared, I have a way to help you take Panyu City." ”

"What can General Shi do?" Deng Ai's eyes suddenly lit up.

Shi Qian immediately stepped forward and explained his plan unhurriedly.

Deng Ai's originally excited gaze gradually turned suspicious, looked at Shi Qian with suspicious eyes, and questioned: "Are you sure that you can do so many things on your own?" ”

"Is this difficult? I don't think so. Shi Qian was very unimpressed.

Deng Ai fell silent again, and looked up and down again at the lieutenant with thief eyebrows, and his eyes were like looking at a braggart guy, full of distrust.

Shi Qian flattened his mouth and snorted coldly: "I said General Deng, I know you don't believe me, but when we get here, it's already difficult to ride a tiger, do you have any other tricks besides believing me?" ”

Deng Ai's body shook suddenly, and without a trace of hesitation, he said categorically: "You are right, we have been riding a tiger and it is difficult to go down, and we will act according to your plan." ”

"Okay, then let's see the fire as a number, and I'll go." Shi Qian arched his hand, turned around, and disappeared at the end of the mountain road in a blink of an eye, like a gust of mountain wind.

Looking at the figure of Shi Qian, there was a trace of doubt in Deng Ai's eyes, he took a light breath, raised his gun and shouted: "Order the whole army, tell the brothers to speed up their advance, and before evening, be sure to kill under Panyu City." ”

The order was quickly conveyed, and the 10,000 tired Great Wei soldiers held the belief of dying, regardless of their fatigue, and continued to move forward on the mountain road.

When the remnant sun slopes westward, the mountain road under the feet becomes more and more flat, and the two wings of the mountains gradually settle, and the flat land is about to enter the eye.

Deng Ai's ears even sounded the sound of waves crashing on the shore, and he knew that the city he had been to many times was finally coming.

Deng Ai's mood couldn't help but get excited, urging his soldiers to speed up and run wildly.

A moment later, Deng Ai jumped up the hill with an arrow step.

Looking far away, the mountain is already open, and in the southeast, the vast sea can be seen.

Qinshui, which comes from north to south, goes south like a jade belt, and joins the sea not far away, and the majestic city is located at the mouth of Qinshui.

Panyu City, finally arrived!

In the direction behind Deng Ai, 10,000 tired surprise attack soldiers also climbed the hill one after another, black and oppressive like a crushing dark cloud.

The soldiers gasped for breath and looked at the city by the sea from afar, and the fatigue was quickly swept away, and the blood began to burn, and they all jumped into battle and gradually became murderous.

Deng Ai suppressed the fierce battle intent, looked in the direction of the south seaside, and muttered: "Time has changed, my army has been in place, and the next thing is to see if you can create a miracle." ”

……

Panyu West Gate.

At the head of the city, Ma Liang, who was born as a scribe, was wrapped in heavy armor and patrolled the city, and his outfit did not match his weak temperament.

Along the front line of the city, more than 1,000 Taiping soldiers were under his supervision, not daring to be sloppy in the slightest, and all of them looked in the direction outside the city.

Ma Liang stopped, looked out of the city, and his thoughts raced.

In his opinion, the Wei army was able to cross the Wuling and attack Sihui City, it seems that there must be people in the Wei army who are familiar with the terrain of Jiaozhou, if they are not mistaken, the target of their next attack must be his Panyu City.

"Sihui City is a hundred miles away from Panyu, the Wei army crossed the Wuling, it must be lightly armed, exhausted, after capturing Sihui City, it will definitely take a little rest before daring to attack Panyu, so calculated, I have at least one more day to prepare, well, it should be enough......"

Ma Liang's palm slapped on the city wall, and the worried look between his eyebrows calmed down a little.

At this moment, a soldier suddenly screamed: "Matthew Shou look, it seems that there is a fire in the direction of the port!" ”

Ma Liang's mind was interrupted, his body shook suddenly, and he hurriedly looked in the direction of the south sea, and sure enough, he saw a fire raging, covering the red glow of the sunset.

"What's going on, how can there be a fire in the direction of the port?" Ma Liang's face had changed, and he asked in a deep voice.

Just when he was suspicious, a messenger rushed to the head of the city, and shouted: "Yu Taishou, there are three cargo ships in my harbor that are on fire, and the fire is getting bigger and bigger, and the port is short of manpower, so it is about to be unable to control the fire. ”

Ma Liang's heart fluttered, and a trace of panic suddenly appeared in his eyes.

You must know that this Panyu City is not only the Nanhai County Administration, but also because of the sea in the south, it is the first seaport in Jiaozhou, basically the overseas trade between Jiaozhou and Nanyang is concentrated in this Panyu Port.

Since the Taiping Rebellion, the economy of Jiaozhou has been greatly damaged due to the policy of only plundering and not producing, and after Hong Xiuquan returned to Jiaozhou, he had to change the policy and began to restore the economy.

Because Panyu was mainly engaged in foreign trade, it was less damaged by the war, and now it has become one of the important sources of taxation for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

In the southern harbor, there are hundreds of cargo ships docked, all full of goods, and it is too late to unload, if it is burned down by a fire, it is equivalent to the loss of a huge amount of wealth, and when the time comes, the Tianjing side will blame it, and it is strange that Ta Ma Liang can have good fruit to eat.

"No, these cargo ships can't afford to lose!" Ma Liang was in a hurry on the spot, and hurriedly ordered the mobilization of the soldiers and horses defending the city to quickly go to the port to put out the fire.

Just as Ma Liang was about to go down to the city and personally go to fight the fire, he suddenly stopped, and a trace of doubt surged between his eyebrows.

Could this fire be set by the Wei army's infiltration of the meticulous work, wanting to divert the tiger from the mountain and launch a surprise attack while I was dividing my troops to fight the fire?

Ma Liang's mind burst out with such a suspicion, and he subconsciously turned his head and looked in the direction of the avenue to the north.

At the end of the view, there was silence, and there was no sign of an army coming.

"The port is heavily guarded, even if the Wei army has a fine work to get in, it is impossible to light three ships in a row so easily, this fire should just be an accident."

Ma Liang immediately dispelled his suspicions, and then ordered to strengthen vigilance at all times, and once he found that there was an abnormal situation and the situation was not right, he immediately put away the drawbridge, closed the city gate, and sent someone Pegasus to report to him.

"Even if the Wei army takes the opportunity to attack, as long as they can close the city gate in time, the soldiers and horses on duty will be enough to last until I come back......"

Only then did Ma Liang relent, rushed down to the city, and took thousands of soldiers and horses from the south gate to the southern harbor to put out the fire.

……

The last of the sun was gone, and it was finally getting dark.

On the hill, Deng Ai looked at the direction of the harbor, the blazing fire, endless surprises burst out in his eyes, and he exclaimed: "I didn't expect that time to do it!" ”

At this moment, Deng Ai finally had an impressive appreciation for the thief-eyed lieutenant in his heart.

The sea of fire by the sea, this is the signal of his agreement with the times.

Deng Ai was as excited as fire, without a trace of hesitation, the silver spear in his hand pointed at the enemy city, and shouted: "Brother and brother, the Taiping traitor has been tricked, follow me Deng Ai to take advantage of the situation to kill the enemy city, today is the time for us to make contributions, kill-"

After the earth-shattering roar, Deng Ai swept the silver gun in his hand, strode down the hillside, and went straight to the west gate of Panyu to kill.

Behind him, the blood of 10,000 soldiers was also ignited, and the sound of killing shook the sky, sweeping like a group of beasts all over the mountains.

10,000 Wei troops rushed forward from the mountain and rushed forward, and in an instant, they rushed to the front line of the west gate of Panyu.

At the head of the city, the Taiping army immediately fell into a panic.

Ma Liang thought that the Wei army would come from the north avenue, so most of the soldiers and horses defending the city were placed on the first line of the north gate, and the soldiers and horses at the west gate were only more than 700 people.

Moreover, the Taiping army thought that the Wei army was still resting in Sihui City, and it would be killed the day after tomorrow at the earliest, but they did not expect that the Wei army would appear outside the West Gate City at this time, like a divine soldier descending from the sky, so they could not be shocked.

"It was the Wei army who killed it!"

"How is this possible, Wei Jun only broke the four meetings yesterday, how could it be killed so quickly?"

"Go and report to Matthew."

"Pull up the drawbridge and close the gates, quick!"

……

Along the west gate of the city, the gongs of warning sounded loudly, and the screams came and went.

At the winch of the castle tower, several Taiping soldiers hurriedly began to turn the winch, trying to pull the drawbridge up.

Although their numbers are small, as long as they can put away the drawbridge in time and close the city gates, they can resist for a moment and hold out until Ma Liang leads the army back to help.

"I want to put away the suspension bridge, no way!"

Next to the winch, a soldier suddenly let out a sarcastic shout, drew his knife out, and slashed towards several soldiers.

Where the blood splattered, several soldiers who tried to put away the suspension bridge were instantly cut to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the soldier shouted, and with a knife in his hand, he slashed at the rope, and it broke with a thud.

The drawbridge lost its pull and fell with a bang.

The soldier stood at the head of the city, glanced at the Wei army rolling outside the city, a smug sneer rose at the corner of his mouth, and he hummed in his mouth: "Deng Ai, I said earlier, when I moved out of the horse, there is nothing that I can't do." ”

With a sneer, Shi Qian rushed ahead of the enemies who were rushing around, and his figure scurried like a ghost, and he rushed from the city head to the city gate in the blink of an eye.

At this time, seven or eight Taiping soldiers were working hard in unison, trying to close the city gate, but they didn't notice that there was chaos in the city, and they didn't know that the Wei army was mixed in their army.

The gates were only halfway closed, and when Shi Qian swept with his swords, the soldiers were unsuspecting and cut them to the ground.

Shi Qian then flew up and kicked on the city gate, which was half-closed, and then it opened with a bang.

It was only at this time that the Taiping army reacted and rushed towards Shi Qian, a spy, wanting to take the city gate.

Shi Qian relied on a ring-headed knife in his hand, and killed desperately, forcing the enemy soldiers who rushed up like crazy.

In this short moment, 10,000 Wei troops have been overwhelming, stepping across the drawbridge, and inexorably pouring into the open city gate.

"Time has changed, well done!"

With a shout of joy, Deng Ai strode past Shi Qian's side, raised his gun and dropped his gun, instantly stabbing the three enemy soldiers to the ground.
