Less than half an hour before the morning meeting, a rebellion broke out in the city.

This made Zhao Tuo immediately dumbfounded, and looking at the soldiers coming to report, Zhao Tuo asked a little uneasily: "Can you see clearly who rebelled?" ”

"Qi Qi Zhao Shuai, it is General Xiong Mo Xiong, who led seven thousand heavy soldiers to drag open the city gate, but was stopped by General Lin Ling."

……

I learned that the person who raised the army was actually the person I trusted the most, and there was no one.

Zhao Tuo's angry old face twitched for a while, and then coughed violently a few times, and Funiu Lu hurriedly asked, "Zhao Shuai......"

"It's okay, but I didn't expect this inner ghost to be the most trusted person in Ben Shuai, it's really annoying to me."

"Hmph, Zhao Shuai usually trusts and cares for that Xiong Mo, but he didn't expect it to be an inner ghost, so he must have done it for the fire in the granary before, and let the last general cut off the traitor's head to make amends to Zhao Shuai."

Xiong Mo was originally the deputy general promoted by Ren Huan, and when Ren Huan was seriously ill and bedridden, Ren Huan reported to Ying Zheng in a letter, recommending him to take over as the next lieutenant of Hainan County.

It's a pity that the plan can't catch up with the changes, and before Yingzheng sent someone to test Xiong Mo's ability, he encountered Zhao Tuo's misdeeds, killed Ren Huan in advance, and became the boss of the Lingnan Army.

And it happened that Li Yu reminded Ying Zheng in advance that Zhao Tuo, the deputy commander of the Lingnan Army, might have bad intentions.

So Ying Zheng sent someone to contact Xiong Mo early, but Xiong Mo didn't believe it all, but he just had a lot of eyes.

It wasn't until Zhao Tuo rebelled that Xiong Mo fully believed the letter from the DPRK and China, and began to secretly collect the military aircraft to spy on the Lingnan Army and hand them over to the DPRK and China secret agents.

However, what Xiong Mo didn't expect was that his idea of waiting for an opportunity was actually extinguished by a fire.

Seeing that Zhao Tuo's granary was destroyed, and the general Zhang Han came to the city again, Zhao Tuo jumped over the wall in a hurry to wait for reinforcements.

Xiong Mo thought about it for a while, and then took 7,000 heavy soldiers to seek control of the city gate, and sent a signal accordingly to wait for Zhang Han's army to come to help.

It's a pity......

Xiong Mo overestimated the combat effectiveness of the baggage soldiers in his hands, and also ignored Lin Ling's caution.

As a result, the battle for the city gate was scorched for a while.

Xiong Mo saw that the defenders were constantly coming in for reinforcements from other city gates and even the county guards, and his face suddenly changed greatly, and he shouted: "Lin Ling, you are also the general of Great Qin, why not follow Zhao Tuo to plot rebellion."

It's better to open the city gate with me, take Zhao Tuo and hand it over to His Majesty the First Emperor to decide, and in the future, he will be able to confer the title of official and blessing his descendants. ”

Lin Ling's pupils shrank when he heard this, and a trace of excitement flashed in his heart, but when he saw that Funiu Road came with people to help, he dispelled his thoughts again, and laughed loudly: "Joke, Zhao Shuai has governed Lingnan for several years, and he has let this place live and work in peace and contentment, which is enough to see that Zhao Shuai is only virtuous and talented, not to mention that there are hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands." ”

"Here, Lin wants to persuade you to get acquainted, follow Zhao Shuai to conspire with each other, and you will be able to become a hero of a country in the future."

"Brother Lin said it well, Ying Zheng forcibly conscripted labor every year to repair the palace of the Emperor of Nalaoshzi, but compared to Zhao Shuai, it is a model of tyranny, it is better to follow Zhao Shuai to seek great things."

Xiong Mo's face changed when he heard this, as if he had expectations for these people before, but now he has dispelled the last trace of hope to fight.

Then he saw Xiong Mo take out an arm-thick bamboo tube from his backpack, lead it towards the torch on the side, and then raise it to the sky, "It's not good, this traitor wants to report the news!"

Seeing this, Funiu Lu hurriedly shouted, and stepped forward to stop it, but it was only a matter of a few seconds for Xiong Mo to ignite the signal before and after, not to mention that there was a group of soldiers facing each other with swords and halberds in the middle.

A flash of red light shot straight into the sky, exploding in an instant, and most of the county could be seen clearly within a radius of miles inside and outside the county.

……

Outside the city.

Zhang Han's army pressed forward for twenty miles, and raided the rebel strongholds left and right, but unfortunately the movement was a little slower, and the rebels had already shrunk their defensive line towards the county town.

Zhang Han and Han Xin pounced, and then waved their troops to chase after the rebels, and went deep in the direction of the county town.

At this moment, a firework exploded over the county town, and Han Xin of the left army did not know the meaning of this firework, but he was slightly puzzled and ignored it.

Zhang Han is different, he is not only the commander of the Lishan army, but also the leader of the mysterious hidden guard.

This special signal tool that has never appeared in the eyes of the world, Zhang Han recognized it at a glance.

Needless to say, Zhang Han's expression turned pale, and then he said to the deputy general beside him: "You quickly notify the former general Li Cunxiao and let him lead the whole army to raid the city gate, the sooner the better." ”

Before the words fell, the adjutant general answered yes, then pulled the horse rope and turned to leave.

At this time, Li Yugang used a repeater crossbow to solve a defender in charge of guarding, and he saw a muffled sound in the sky, so he exclaimed.

Kindness?

Pyrotechnic signals?

Is there at this time?

"That's right, although gunpowder was invented in the Sui Dynasty, there are so many alchemists in Yingzheng Palace...... It doesn't have to be impossible. ”

Li Yu's startled appearance and his anger came out again, which caused Qin Er and the others to look sideways for a while, and they all guessed in their hearts: Master Hou, what's wrong?

"Lord Prince, it's alright!"

Just when Li Yu was surprised by the appearance of gunpowder, Peng Li rescued hundreds of relatives belonging to many generals.

Only then did Li Yu come back to his senses and said: "Now that General Peng has no worries, it's time to go to support the friendly forces to capture the city gate together!"

As soon as Li Yu's words came out, Peng Li's attitude changed, and he replied solemnly: "The last general Peng Yu will take the order." ”

When everyone galloped towards the north gate to support, Qin Er couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Master Hou, why don't you directly kill the county guard and capture that Zhao Tuo alive?" ”

Li Yu glanced at Qin Er beside him, and said angrily: "You haven't seen the defenders of the county guard's mansion, just with the three thousand horses in our hands, do you think it's possible?" ”

Qin Er was asked by Li Yu in a word, and then heard Li Yu scolding "pig head", which immediately caused the rest of the people to hold back laughter.

Seeing the soldiers in armor all over the street rushing towards the city gate, Li Yu couldn't help but swallow and spit, and said, "Grandma has a leg, and seven thousand heavy soldiers dare to raise troops, cattle batch." ”

"My lord, can't you do it?"

Waiting for Peng Ling to ask, Li Yu smiled ghostly and said, "I think that Barberry Road and Lin Ling can't tell the difference between friend and foe, let's pretend to support first, and ...... when we get closer."

After speaking, Li Yu made another gesture, and everyone's hearts were suddenly shocked, and four words came out.

Capture the thief and capture the king!

At this time, at least 20,000 or 30,000 troops were gathered at the gate of the city, and Li Yuke was not stupid enough to rely on 3,000 to ride 30,000 hard steel.

Fortunately, Xiong Mo carried the pot that set fire to the warehouse for Li Yu, which made Funiu Lu and the others subconsciously think that Peng Li was leading the cavalry to support.

Funiu Lu was not surprised, and said with a smile: "Xiong Mo, what kind of waves can you make with only 7,000 people, it's better to surrender quickly, so that I can keep your whole corpse." ”

Xiong Mo relied on the excuse that "the arrows and shields of the city tower need to be replaced and added", and successfully went to the city tower, but Lin Ling kept an eye on it, which made Xiong Mo stuck between the city gate and the city tower.

And the fighting in the city is too large and narrow, so it can hold on to the present.

Seeing thousands of cavalry rushing now, Xiong Mo's heart suddenly beat a drum.

Can this still hold out until the army outside the city drags the door to help?
