Chapter 565 Sneak attack succeeded

With a whistle, Liang General took his men down the city with a smoke - after a long day's work, he could finally take a breath.

"Phew! Don't say hello to one! ”

Xia Qian always spat hard according to his back.

He especially despised these land snakes—in terms of training and equipment, these loose shelves were not soldiers at all.

However, the guy surnamed Wu who just changed it still looks pleasing to the eye, and he likes this kid a lot.

This kid is quite discerning, generous and sweet-mouthed, and since he has partnered with him, he has often had some benefits and filial piety......

He yawned and looked at the small half of the enemy building, a little sleepy.

It's time to squint for a while.

"Let's go, go to the sentry."

He hurriedly beckoned Mr. Wu to go to the sentry post - before going to bed, he had to go to the sentry posts to knock and knock again, although he knew that his old fritters' subordinates could not change their habit of stealing and playing tricks.

Fortunately, the thief in front of him didn't seem to move, and there was no black shadow of the big ship on the river near the pier, so he wouldn't attack for about a while......

After a quick round trip, he dragged his heavy steps back to the enemy building, and pushed open the door of his makeshift room.

It was very simple, except for a table, a chair, and a bed with a mat, and only a few broken jars and jars in the corner, not even a cabinet.

As soon as he entered the door, he picked up the stoneware kettle on the table, poured a few large sips of herbal tea, and let out a long breath, then untied his waist knife, took out a handful of broken silver and copper coins from his arms, and stuffed them into a burden hanging on the wall.

unlucky!

After a tiring day of guarding the city gate, he snatched up this bit of loose silver and a hundred and ten copper coins......

Those men and women who cry for their fathers and mothers are really pitiful, they have been robbed all the way to him empty-handed, and all the valuable things such as jewelry and jade pendants are gone.

"Master, there's still a little bit of ...... here."

At this time, Wu Jiang, who came in with his buttocks, took out a small money bag and laughed with a smile.

"Well, damn, you're still filial to your kid."

Mr. Xia Qian snatched the money bag, checked it with his hand, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Master, then you will rest first? The little one will take someone to top it for a while......"

"Well, be on duty, don't slack off......"

Before he finished speaking, he yawned a few times with his mouth wide open, and fell sideways on the mat......

Wu Jiang didn't leave immediately.

At this moment, he looked coldly at the person on the bed who was already purring, like looking at a dead corpse.

He didn't do anything, though.

He felt a little pity for this person - these days, not all of them are wearing this coat to make a living...... Compared with other officers, this person is a wreck, and he is often bullied by his colleagues on weekdays.

He sighed and walked out lightly......

As a native of Yangzhou, for so many years, he has naturally colluded with many local salt merchants and rice merchants.

Wu Zhaosheng has long been dissatisfied with what this group of green battalion soldiers did, and for a few days in a row, he led his subordinates to the city to assist in the defense of the night, and naturally fell into the eyes of Master Cheng......

Just before the shift change, the eyeliner sent by Master Cheng found him again in a hurry......

As soon as the master left on the front foot, the green battalion soldiers of those old fritters went to find their own land and lazy on their hind feet.

Many people have their own resting place - no need for bedding or anything on a hot day, just find a cooler corner, take off your coat, and lie down in the most comfortable position.

The less timid also huddled under the battlements, snoozing with swords and guns.

They had long been accustomed to this way - the second half of the night was the hardest, and the real work of guarding was all the work of the gang of Cao Ding, who had no status.

Soon, snoring erupted......

A few people quietly came to the city from the shadows and came to the sentry post of the Cao Ding, each holding a bundle of long ropes in their hands.

This was a long time ago negotiated - there were five long ropes, and the length was also calculated in advance, just enough to reach the ground.

Wu Jiangzong waved his hand, and several Cao soldiers took the long rope without saying a word, spread out, tied the end of the rope tightly to the battlements, and then threw the rope down numbly......

Subsequently, everyone first tied a strip of white cloth on their left arm, and watched around with weapons in their hands, quietly waiting for the "heavenly soldiers" to enter the city.

You've got it all right!

Wu Zhaosheng came to a battlement, lit a torch, leaned out, and held the torch in the air three times in succession......

Outside the city, in the shadow of a street, Yang Yuan and the whole platoon of soldiers had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as he saw the signal, he immediately waved his hand.

Behind him, the fighters who had already divided into groups rushed out and rushed straight to the foot of the wall......

Not far behind, Wang Luo and several bigwigs were also watching the battle in the dark, and when they saw the fast and smooth figures of these soldiers, they couldn't help but secretly admire - sure enough, with only one rope, they could go up the wall faster than climbing a ladder.

At the head of the city, the soldiers didn't need to shoot at all, they all held military spurs, and under the guidance of Cao Ding, they quietly touched the sleeping green battalion soldiers, and killed them one by one......

There are also those who are hands-on, and some of them have long been itching with hatred - their family members have also been driven out of the city, and even some of their female relatives have been humiliated and injured.

Many Cao Ding wiped people's necks for the first time in his life, and at first, some people were so nervous that they trembled all over their bodies when they saw blood, and gradually, they began to get used to it......

Their combat effectiveness is not good, the main reason is their training and equipment, in fact, their physical condition is not worse than others, and many of them are still strong......

The battle went surprisingly smoothly - except for a few who were light asleep and resisted, most of the Green Battalion soldiers were still in their dreams.

When the sleeping Xia Qian was also killed with a knife, the short battle to capture the city came to an end.

The sneak attack succeeded, and the signal was sent - it was time for the brigade to enter the city.

The strong men near the city gate cave were prepared from the beginning, and everyone had a white cloth strip tied around their left arm.

Seeing that the Ming army had quickly captured the city, they quickly moved to clear the cumbersome Saimen knife carts and horses with knives and axes......

The sailors and sergeants of Zheng rushed up, and all of them entered the city in a blink of an eye.

Under the leadership of Cao Ding and Min Zhuang, some of them rushed to the various Tibetan caves, and some did not participate in the battle, but in the dark night, along a few streets to the east.

The third to enter the city were five or six militia brigades, whose task had been assigned long ago - every street full of firewood was to be guarded and to extinguish the sporadic fires at all times......

It was only at this time that the defenders in the cave were alarmed one by one, and began to have decent resistance, and in some places even broke out quite fierce white-knuckle battles, and it was necessary to rely on the bullets of the soldiers of the reconnaissance company to completely subdue these bandits.

But in most places, the suddenly awakened Green Battalion soldiers were caught off guard, and either quickly knelt down and surrendered, or scattered in a hurry, rushing into the night in a daze, and fleeing in all directions .......

At this time, there were also dense gunshots in the direction of Xicheng.

Yang Yuan looked up, he estimated that the company commander should also succeed.
