The wind is biting.

The winter night was so cold, and the snowflakes slapped on Zhao Kuo's face with a fierce cold wind, making Zhao Kuo's face a little numb.

Behind Zhao Kuo, there was the sound of falling from time to time, but there was no scream.

The whole team remained silent and kept a slow pace, heading west in the darkness of the night.

According to the initial plan, Zhao Kuo did not immediately launch an attack on the city of the bank gate, but first marched towards the frozen place of the Yellow River south of the city of the bank gate city, from the frozen Yellow River to the west side of the embankment of the city gate, and launched a surprise attack through the section between the embankment and the city wall where people could climb directly.

I don't know how long I walked, Zhao Kuo's feet suddenly slipped, and the whole person staggered forward, almost falling to the ground.

Zhao Kuo's heart was awe-inspiring, he lowered his body and gently touched the ground with his hand, but did not touch the muddy ground mixed with snowflakes, only the smooth ice surface.

He had already stepped on the ice of the Yellow River.

Zhao Kuo took a deep breath and walked forward more cautiously.

However, as soon as he took a step, Zhao Kuo's feet slipped again, and he fell firmly with a "bang".

Zhao Kuo slowly got up and continued to walk towards the north.

In the dark night behind Zhao Kuo, there were banging sounds from time to time, which sounded a bit like a cannon battle.

Above Zhao Kuo's head was the pitch-black sky, and there was silence between the heavens and the earth on a winter night, only the cold wind blew with ice and snow, whistling in everyone's ears.

"Kara, Kara!" A sharp voice suddenly sounded not far behind Zhao Kuo, followed by a low exclamation.

Zhao Kuo stopped and asked behind him, "What's the matter?" ”

"Someone fell overboard."

"Drowning?"

"No, pull it up."

Zhao Kuo breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and said in a low voice: "It's already close to the shore gate, be careful not to make any noise." ”

Of course, having said that, Zhao Kuo also knows very well in his heart that slipping or not is really not something that he can control.

Even if Zhao Kuo was behind a thousand elites of the Zhao Kingdom who were forbidden by order, but on such a cold and snowy night when his eyes couldn't see, Zhao Kuo couldn't guarantee that it would be smooth.

Fortunately, the shore gate city is not far away.

After another quarter of an hour, Zhao Kuo finally gradually approached under the guidance of the faint fire at the head of the shore gate, and was only about a hundred steps away from the head of the shore gate.

This distance is not enough to be illuminated by the light of the fire.

Zhao Kuo took a deep breath, gently reached out and hammered the left chest of the Zhao soldier behind him twice, and then squatted down silently, turning into a figure hidden in the darkness.

The soldier gave the same order to the soldiers behind him, and a moment later, the silent order spread throughout the troops.

Zhao Kuo's squat has been a long time.

It wasn't until the third Qin army patrol passed by the city in front of Zhao Kuo that Zhao Kuo stretched out his hand again and slapped the soldier behind him on the right shoulder three times.

This is a signal for a sortie.

After sending this signal, Zhao Kuo stood up without hesitation and began to run towards the embankment not far in front of him in small steps.

"Bang!"

Just ran two steps, Zhao Kuo's feet slipped again, and he fell a dog eating.

A sharp pain passed from the bridge of his nose into Zhao Kuo's brain, and Zhao Kuo only felt that his nostrils were warm, and a trace of bloody gas began to spread on the tip of his nose.

Several pairs of big hands pulled Zhao Kuo up at the same time.

"Captain, are you alright?"

Zhao Kuo touched his nose, and sure enough, he felt a nosebleed.

But this is not the time to worry about that.

"Keep going!"

Zhao Kuo finally came to the embankment.

The embankment was also frozen, and it was also very smooth, but this time Zhao Kuo was cautious and finally managed to climb to the top of the embankment slope and stand under the city wall.

Due to the embankment, the walls of this place are only more than two people high.

When you get here, you're already in the range of the fire on the city wall.

As long as any Qin soldier passed by and poked his head out, he could clearly see Zhao Kuo under the city wall.

However, since the latest group of patrols had just passed by, no one noticed these Zhao soldiers who suddenly appeared.

A soldier of the Zhao army rushed to the corner of the wall and stood still, put his palms together into a bag, and the whole person squatted down, and gestured to Zhao Kuo with his eyes.

Zhao Kuo did not hesitate to step directly on the opponent's palms, and then stepped on the opponent's shoulders, and then jumped hard, just grabbing the edge of the city wall.

Zhao Kuo's arms were forced, and he climbed into the city wall like an extremely agile ape.

By Zhao Kuo's side, one by one the soldiers of the Zhao Army climbed up in the same way.

"Ahh Suddenly, an exclamation sounded beside Zhao Kuo, and Zhao Kuo turned around suddenly, and found that a Zhao soldier had slipped while climbing the city wall, and the whole person fell into the darkness outside the city in a large shape.

Zhao Kuo's heart sank.

Although the snow was falling, this sudden exclamation was quite harsh on a night like this.

Sure enough, after this scream, several Qin soldiers immediately rushed out of the city tower dozens of steps away.

These Qin troops discovered the existence of Zhao Kuo and the others almost immediately.

At this moment, the Zhao army gathered above the city has exceeded a hundred people, and the number is still increasing, so it is impossible for so many people to hide from others.

The soldiers of the Qin army were stunned for a moment after seeing Zhao Kuo and the soldiers of Zhao State, obviously not knowing why a strange army suddenly appeared here.

But for Zhao Kuo now, since he has already gone to the city wall, there is no need to hide it.

The young captain Zhao Guo pulled out the long sword at his waist and shouted: "Second and third sons, attack!" ”

The next moment, Zhao Kuo rushed into the Qin soldiers who were still in a state of panic like a tiger coming out of the mountain.

On the one hand, there were many people who were calculating, and on the other hand, they were unprepared and caught off guard, so the victory and defeat were decided after only a short moment in this encounter at the castle tower.

The dozen or so soldiers of the Qin army at the city tower all became ghosts under the swords of Zhao Kuo and the soldiers of the Zhao army.

Blood fell to the earth dripping, and snowflakes fell from the sky and fell on these blood flowers that had not yet solidified, and the blood flowers and snowflakes converged and merged into a strange red and white color, which shimmered strangely in the dim light.

After capturing the city tower, Zhao Kuo looked up at the city.

At this moment, the alarm was already loud in the shore gate city, and countless soldiers rushed out of the barracks, and they were nervously assembling in formation.

Zhao Kuo laughed three times, only to feel that there was a blood stirring in his heart.

"Second and third sons, don't stop, continue to attack with me!"

Zhao Kuo's whole body was full of wind, and he led his subordinates to rush down from the city wall like a whirlwind, rushing towards the Qin soldiers who had just assembled.

Of the 3,000 Qin troops in this city, only 500 were real soldiers of the Qin State, and all the others were county soldiers.

The so-called county soldiers are actually just a group of farmers who serve.

If Zhao Kuo is now leading a group of vicious wolves who are out hunting in the snowy night, then in Zhao Kuo's eyes at this moment, these three thousand Qin soldiers are just a large group of lambs to be slaughtered!

Without any hesitation, Zhao Kuo waved the long sword in his hand and crashed into the Qin army formation, the sword light flickered in the dark night, and the roar exploded in the ears of every Qin army soldier like thunder.

"Those who surrender will not die, and those who resist will be killed!"

Behind Zhao Kuo, a thousand soldiers of the Zhao army followed Zhao Kuo and rushed to kill, tearing open a big hole in the array that the Qin army had not yet fully assembled.

In just one charge, Zhao Kuo led a thousand elite Zhao troops under his command to eliminate more than 300 Qin troops and successfully defeated the Qin army's array.

The tide of battle immediately turned into a one-sided flight and pursuit.

Seeing that the situation was not good, many Qin troops knelt down and surrendered.

But there are also some Qin soldiers who are brave and desperate to resist, and such resistance is actually just a mantis arm as a car when the overall situation has been decided, and the ending is of course only a dead word.

In the early morning of the next day, a red flag symbolizing the state of Zhao fluttered high in the wind in the city of Anmen.

The shore gate has been conquered!
