Chapter 649: The Secret Passage

Outside the city of Linyi.

The crown prince Fan Yi and the general Fan Man have launched a full-scale attack on Linyi City.

An army of 50,000 began to attack Linyi City from three city walls, because there were enough war elephant troops, and these war elephant armies were as high as three or four meters, and counting the soldiers on the war elephants, they were more than five meters high, which was not much different from the Linyi City Tower.

The archers on the body of these elephants, the ability to shoot, is relatively accurate, it should be the shooters carefully selected by Fan Man's subordinates, they are uncivilized barbarians, forging equipment is not good, but the bow and arrow is a weapon with low iron technology to make it, and they can also make it by hand.

Therefore, these war elephants still have a suppression of the defenders on the city tower, and with the wooden shields in their hands, they can also block Sun Jian's attack.

But in the same way, Sun Jian knew that the elephants and horses that these Funan people relied on also had weaknesses, and these animals were afraid of flames, so Sun Jian's wanton use of rockets could also disturb these elephants, so that the archers on the elephants could not be effective in a short time.

Under Sun Jian's fierce defense, the two of them did not gain any advantage at this time.

Judging from this rhythm of attack, although Fan Man's army may break through Linyi City by taking advantage of the advantage in numbers, the losses must be huge, and it will take a long time at the same time, which is not what Fan Yi wants to see.

Even if they defeated these Han defenders and captured Linyi City at that time, their losses would not be enough to continue the attack on the other territories of the Han Dynasty.

In Fan Yi's opinion, he just wanted to use a little bit of the price to build this city, and if he lost too much, he couldn't accept it.

After a moment of silence, he knew that he would finally have to use this last resort, sneaking into the city through the underground passages and breaking the will of the defenders from within.

Only in this way can you accelerate the attack on this city and at the same time reduce the losses of your own army.

"General Fan Man, you take a break here, I still have a secret passage to the city, I led three thousand soldiers and horses to sneak into the city from the secret passage, attack the city tower from the rear, and open the city gate when the time comes, welcome the general into the city."

As soon as Fan Man heard Fan Yi's words, he was immediately shocked, and immediately showed great joy on his face, Fan Man was naturally very happy that Fan Yi proposed this kind of plan that should be combined with the outside and the inside.

Fan Man, who was already a little embarrassed and didn't know how many soldiers and horses he had to lose to conquer this city, immediately nodded in agreement after hearing about it, and praised Fan Yi loudly.

"Okay, if you break through this city this time, I will remember your great merit with Little Brother Fan Yi!"

Fan Yi's face did not change, but he said calmly to Fan Man.

"General, the credit is not necessary, I just hope that the general will remember the agreement with me and help me restore the country, and when the time comes, I will help the general seize the throne of Funan."

Fan Yi reiterated the conditions between himself and Fan Man again, and Fan Man showed some strange looks on his face, but he immediately responded to Fan Yi with a straight face.

"Don't worry, the plan between you and me, I naturally haven't forgotten, after laying this city, I will help you restore the country, your Linyi country is still here."

"Then I'll go in first."

After Fan Yi finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, led the people around him, and left from here.

Fan Man also slowed down the pace of the attack at this time, and at the same time waited for Fan Yi to lead people to sneak into the city and break the city gate, and then take the city together inside and outside.

Fan Yi said goodbye from Fan Man's side, and then came to the rear of the battlefield, where there were more than 3,000 remnants of the Lin Yi Kingdom led by himself.

These people were also the main backbone of the help Fan Yi to restore the country.

Although there are still some peripheral members in other places who have not come, these 3,000 talents here are the main backbone, without the support of these 3,000 backbones, Fan Yi's dream of recovering the country is simply impossible.

It is precisely because of these 3,000 people, coupled with the support of Fan Yi with a lot of money, that he was able to find a thigh like Fan Man in Funan to help him recover the country.

He stepped down from the war elephants and came to his 3,000 men, and began to cheer them up, and then led them to a bush in the woods not far outside the city.

Peel back the bush and you'll find a hole in the ground.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the restoration of the country is in sight, I will wait for the time for revenge, follow me into the city and recapture the Linyi country!"

Prince Fan Yi took the lead, shouted loudly and jumped down the hole.

Immediately after that, several key cronies will follow you and jump into the burrow.

The dark cavern stretched for a long time, a distance of kilometers from the middle of the city to the outside of the city.

The cave is dark and damp, and there are even some unidentified animals that live here as their nests.

Occasionally, however, people will pass through these caves, and there is no particular danger.

Guarding the other side, Liu Zheng and his party in the courtyard waited for a long time and did not hear any changes in the courtyard.

There was still some irritability, but at this time, I suddenly heard a bang.

Liu Zheng and the others, who were ambushed at the gate outside the courtyard, suddenly looked startled, glanced at each other, signaled to calm down, and after not speaking, they paid attention to the situation in the courtyard through the crack in the door.

A tile next to the well shook for a moment, and then a head poked out of it.

The head looked around for a moment, and when he noticed that there was no movement in the courtyard, he jumped up.

Whispered to the inside and continued to speak.

"My lord, there is no movement outside to come out!"

After noticing that there was no movement in this courtyard, this Lin Yi National Remnant Party immediately shouted at the bottom of the cave, wanting to let the people in the cave come out of it.

The whole small courtyard is not very big, even if all the people inside come out, it can't accommodate many people, at most, it can accommodate hundreds of people in this courtyard, and it will be very crowded.

Although Liu Zheng and the others realized that there were indeed people in this cave, they didn't do it at the first time, because he knew that even if he did it now, he would definitely not be able to arrest many people.

Many people should still be in the burrow, and they haven't had time to get out, and now they will only startle the snake when they go in.

Liu Zheng needed to wait for them to come out with more people before starting to do it, and at that time, it would be easier to capture those who had already come out or go down to pursue those who were coming.

You can even wipe out all the remnants of these Linyi countries here, of course, the most important thing is to catch Fan Yi, the prince of Linyi Kingdom, who escaped.

The people in the tunnel of the courtyard came up from the hole one by one, and the hole was not big, and there could not be many people who came up at one time.
