The more Ling Tong thought about it, the more excited he became, and he asked urgently, "What you said is true?" Can that path really reach the outside of Huarong City from here? ”

When the brocade guard heard this, he said: "How dare you deceive the general, but there is no road feasible on that path, the road is very difficult, and there is no way to transport the war horses and baggage, only people can climb over!" ”

"Hahahaha, as long as people can pass, it is enough, there is no need for the rest of the siege equipment, and the sharp soldiers in our army can capture the city with the knife in their hands!"

Since Ling Tong joined Yuan Yao, he was accepted by Yuan Yao as a lieutenant in the Pro-Guard Army, and he has now been training with the Pro-Guard Army for two years, so he naturally knows how powerful these Pro-Guard soldiers are, as long as someone can pass this path, then this elite army will definitely be able to pass!

As long as this elite can appear outside Huarong City like a divine soldier descending from heaven, Huarong City will be broken!!

"You wait for a while, after I arrange the soldiers and horses, you will lead the way and wait for me to go outside Huarong City!"

"The general is at his own disposal!"

……

Ling Tong left 2,000 soldiers and horses stationed in a valley to guard the war horses and the rest of the grain and grass, and he planned to personally lead 3,000 soldiers with only their personal weapons, two days' dry rations, and some ropes to follow the Jinyi Weili through the mountains and forests to attack Huarong County.

Seeing that Ling Tong was ready, the brocade guard took him around and around to the entrance of a trail, although this path is called a path, but in fact there is no road, everyone wants to pass here, they can only open up a passage all the way, fortunately, this mountain is still relatively gentle, there are not too many steep slopes and cliffs, three thousand elites all the way to the top of the mountain before dark.

Looking down from the top of the mountain, you can see Huarong County, at this time Huarong County has been lit up with lights, fortunately, the sky is not bad tonight, there are no dark clouds in the sky, the bright moonlight can be splashed down directly, these lights are enough to illuminate the road for the army!

Three thousand soldiers and horses with the help of the moonlight to guide the way, under the leadership of the Jinyi Weilishi, and climbed hard for several hours, and finally arrived at the bottom of the mountain at the time of Yin (three to five o'clock in the evening), Huarong County is only more than ten miles away from the place where the soldiers and horses of Ling Tong's troops descended the mountain, and the army can quickly reach the outside of Huarong City with all their might!

Ling Tong was not in a hurry to let the soldiers move, but ordered the soldiers to eat a dry food at the foot of the mountain and rest for a quarter of an hour to recuperate their combat strength, after the army was slightly reorganized, the physical strength of the soldiers had basically recovered, and the three thousand soldiers climbed the mountain road for six or seven hours before they came to the outside of Huarong City, and they could break through the city and make contributions, at this time the soldiers were already a little impatient in their hearts!

After Ling Tong saw that the army had finished resting, he immediately led the army to go straight to Huarong County, with Huarong Dao Xiaozhai resisting at the forefront, Huarong County can be said to be very safe, and the Jingzhou army did not send scouts near the county seat again, but ordered the sentry of Huarong Dao Xiaozhai to return to the city every hour to report the military situation.

When Ling Tong led the army to arrive outside Huarong City, the defense of the Jingzhou army can be said to be very lax, there are not many soldiers and horses on duty on the surrounding city walls, only the east city wall has some light, and the remaining three city walls, especially the west city wall farthest from Huarong Road, is dark above the city wall, and there are no soldiers on duty at all, only there is some fire in the city gate tower.

After Ling Tong observed for a while, he set the direction of the breakthrough at the location of the west city wall, Ling Tong led three hundred soldiers to lurk under the city wall in batches, not attracting the attention of the soldiers on duty at all, a moment later, the three hundred soldiers threw out the rope, Ling Tong took the lead and led the three hundred soldiers to quickly climb the city wall along the rope, at this time the defenders of the Jingzhou army still did not realize the danger coming.

； After Ling Tong and three hundred soldiers went to the city, everyone hurriedly drew out their long knives and touched the place of the city gate tower, at this time the Jingzhou army sergeants were already asleep against the city wall, Ling Tong saw this, waved his hand to order the brigade of soldiers and horses to stop, and he took twenty or thirty sergeants to touch it, everyone started together, and in an instant, more than 30 defenders outside the city gate tower were solved, after solving these sergeants, Ling Tong led the sergeants to break in, and soon several Jingzhou army officers in the city gate tower were quietly solved.

After solving these sergeants, Ling Tong hurriedly led the army down to the city and touched the place of the city gate, at this time most of the sergeants on duty at the city gate were already asleep, just when Ling Tong was about to repeat the old trick to talk about these sergeants to solve the problem, unexpectedly, a Jingzhou army sergeant turned over and woke up.

The sergeant of the Jingzhou Army saw a figure in front of him silently touching it, and immediately felt a shock in his heart, a cold sweat broke out on his body, and his brain immediately became sober, and he hurriedly shouted: "Stop!" Who are you!! ”

Ling Tong saw that someone was coming, and he didn't have the heart to repeat his old skills, so he quickened his pace and killed these Jingzhou Army sergeants, and the three hundred sharp qi behind him saw this, and they also sped up their pace and came towards these Jingzhou Army sergeants!

Seeing this, the sergeant of the Jingzhou Army hurriedly shouted: "Enemy attack!" Enemy attack! Wake up, brothers!! ”

"Ah!!h

……

Just when this sergeant shouted loudly, Ling Tong had already rushed to the front, Ling Tong waved the long knife in his hand, and directly beheaded this person in an instant, at this time, the rest of the Jingzhou army sergeants had just come to their senses, and before they could realize what was happening, the three hundred soldiers had already been killed, and the swords in everyone's hands were slashed violently, and soon the dozens of Jingzhou army sergeants were hacked to death!

"Quickly open the city gate and receive the soldiers and horses outside into the city!"

Several sergeants quickly stepped forward to open the city gate, and more than 2,000 soldiers who were still waiting outside the city quickly arrived in Huarong City, and the Jinyi Weili saw that Ling Tong opened the city gate so easily and entered the city, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "General, follow this road all the way forward, you can see the enemy camp, the enemy general Zhang Hu and most of the defenders in the city are stationed in the camp, as long as the enemy camp is broken, Huarong County will belong to the general!" ”

The victory in this battle is imminent, Ling Tong is also very happy in his heart, laughed a few times, and said: "Hahahaha, this battle depends on your merits, when we take the city, I will personally show your merits to the lord, now lead the way in front first, and quickly lead me to attack the enemy camp!" ”

"No, thank you general, general, come with me!"
