Chapter 20: The Attack on Zhaojiabao (3)
When I arrived at Zhaojiabao, it was already four o'clock, and it was already dark. Originally, they could have arrived at Zhaojiabao quickly, but in order to implement the plan to enter the fort after dark, the road stopped and delayed a lot of time.
At this time, Liu Xia's army was still five miles away from Zhaojiabao, and Liu Xia ordered it to stop. It was so dark, even if he got closer, a few careless swaying family members on the Zhaojiabao fortress would not notice.
There are lights on the fortress, so Liu Xia and the others can easily see the situation on the fortress, while the people above Zhaojiabao can't see them. The city wall of Zhaojiabao is more than three zhang high, and the periphery of the city wall is a ditch, with sharp wooden cones inserted in it, if it falls into it, it will definitely die a tragic death. Zhaojiabao is not very large, so there is only one gate and a small gate in the entire Zhaojiabao.
The door of Zhaojiabao has been closed at this time, and the servants who can stay in Zhaojiabao have all returned to their houses at this time, except for Zhao Lang, of course. Closing the door when it gets dark is also for safety, after all, the world is not peaceful.
In Zhaojiabao, Zhao Yan didn't worry about anything because his third son didn't come back, because Zhao Lang often came back very late, and when Zhao Lang left, he still took more than a dozen family members with him, in Zhao Yan's opinion, this was enough to make his third son very safe. He's old now.
The eldest son was lame and physically disabled. The second son is a blind man, and he can't control the family. Only the third son, Zhao Lang, is handsome, and there is no problem with his body, so he can inherit the family property.
Although Zhao Lang does not learn and has no skills, he bullies men and women, and does all kinds of evil. Every time he needs to wipe Zhao Lang's buttocks, but he only has such a complete child, he can only spoil him.
Zhao Yan picked up a cup of hot tea that was still smoking, took a sip, and quickly spit it out, a little girl next to him hurriedly came over and picked up a handkerchief to wipe Zhao Yan's mouth, Zhao Yan vomited, and a mouthful of blood appeared on the handkerchief directly. Zhao Yan waved his hand at the little girl and motioned for her to leave. Then he put the bloodstained handkerchief away.

Liu Xia glanced at Chen Liu, Chen Liu nodded, and then led the carriage slowly towards Zhaojiabao, accompanied by three other servants dressed in costumes, and ten armed soldiers.
Liu Xia ordered that after Chen Liu opened the city gate and Niu Chao Ma Peng killed those family members, he would enter the city with his own personal guards, the Tiger Ben Camp and the Wolf Howling Camp, and a scout brigade would go to the small gate of Zhaojiabao to block it, and no one should be allowed to escape. The rest of the logistics battalion and the Lion battalion remained behind, on the one hand, to protect the logistics troops, and on the other hand, to act as a response. When Liu Xia occupied Zhaojiabao, the lion battalion and the logistics battalion entered the city to carry things.
According to Liu Xia's request, Ma Peng went to the city tower to kill those family members, and then lit the torches, Liu Xia knew that they had done it, and he could go in.
Now everyone in Liu Xia's army is leading a horse, and then riding a horse, and now Liu Xia has asked the wolf howling battalion of the Tiger Ben camp to hand over the extra horses in the hands of the logistics battalion and the lion battalion left behind, prepare weapons, and dispatch at any time. In addition, the scout brigade set out in advance to go to the back door of Zhaojiabao, and lay in ambush not far from it.
……
Chen Liu slowly led the horses forward, and the five miles were quickly completed, and they immediately approached the gate of Zhaojiabao. Of course, they also attracted the attention of the families above the castle tower, and there were ten families standing guard above, six of whom were already sleeping there, and two were standing dizzily, and only two were looking out carefully.
"Stop, who are you, this is Zhaojiabao, don't come here again, otherwise you will release the arrows." Ding Jia, the family above the city tower, held the iron tire bow that could not be opened in his hand with a vicious face, and faced Chen Liu and his party who were marching below. It's just that the lights above the city tower are really not big, so it is difficult for them to see clearly who the people below are, and they can only vaguely see the people coming below.
Chen Liu put down the rope of the carriage, then stepped forward and said to the family on the top of the city gate: "Dog, dog, it's me, Xiaoliu, our third young master is back, open the door quickly!" ”
Chen Liu is indeed accompanying their third young master out today, and there is a carriage in this team, although he can't see what it looks like, but with Chen Liu, it shouldn't be wrong. So the person known as the dog didn't suspect anything, so he said to Chen Liu below: "The third young master is back, I'll go down and open the door for the young master." After saying that, the dog hurriedly ran down.
Chen Liu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, this first level finally passed, and then the suspension bridge began to slowly put down "bang" on the ground, after the suspension bridge was placed, the dog slowly opened the gate, and then hurriedly showed a flattering face, ran to the carriage, wanting Zhao Lang to remember himself, and then to Zhao Lang to be an entourage, so that he can be a prestige, and the benefits will be many.
With this in mind, the dog quickly ran to the carriage, but he had not yet entered the city, and Chen Liu couldn't let the dog know that there was no young master in it at all.
So Chen Liu hurriedly ran forward to stop the dog, and then said a little anxiously: "Dog, you can't go over, the young master is sleeping now, and the young master can't be disturbed when he sleeps, otherwise he will die!" ”
The dog looked at Chen Liu's anxious appearance, believed it, and stopped going, secretly saying bad luck in his heart. After all, the dog hadn't taken care of Zhao Lang, so he didn't know what Zhao Lang's habits were, so when he heard Chen Liu say this, he believed it.
Regardless of whether what Chen Liu said was true or not, if it was false, he went to disturb it, then it was nothing. If what Chen Liu said is true, then it is not worth it to be cut by the young master for this little profit! So the unhappy dog followed Chen Liu depressedly and walked towards the city.
When he was about to get to the city, the lights came on, and the dog looked at a family next to him and said with a puzzled expression, "Why hasn't my brother seen you?" New to the new arrival? The asked family member glanced at Chen Liu, Chen Liu made a fierce color, and the family took out a dagger from nowhere, touched the dog's neck, and died without making a sound.
Putting the dog's body aside, Ma Peng and Niu Chao walked out of the carriage, and then under the leadership of Chen Liu, they walked towards the city tower, at this time there was a person on the city tower with open eyes, and when he heard the footsteps of many people, the others also woke up, and saw that the person who came was Chen Liu, and one of the leaders asked Chen Liu impatiently: "Xiaoliu, what are you doing when you come up?" What about dogs? ”
Chen Liu didn't speak, and the soldiers behind him pretended to be family members, suddenly stepped forward and stabbed the person who looked like the leader, and died directly.
The others also reacted and immediately panicked, but how could the soldiers who had already prepared them give them a chance to escape? Although there were some people who wanted to shout, they were all dealt with by the fast-moving Ma Peng and Niu Chao.
In less than half a cup of tea, all ten of them turned into corpses. Although these people are all family members, it doesn't mean that they don't deserve to die, these family members don't have a few good ones, and bullying men and women is also a common thing, and none of them can be forgiven.
Ma Peng Niu lit a fire on the top of the city tower and informed Liu Xia that he could enter the city, and then brought these dozen soldiers, and Chen Liu led the way to the main people in the castle to solve some of them.
Ma Peng and Niu Chao are both brave but unscrupulous people, and Chen Liu happens to be able to make up for their shortcomings. The two of them were also from poor families, so after Chen Liu told his experience, the two of them looked at Chen Liu without any hostility, but were a little close.
Ma Peng tried his best to keep his loud voice low and said to Chen Liu: "Which one should we go to first?" This Zhaojiabao is really not small, there are hundreds of families living in it, and the Zhao family is really rich! Looks like we're definitely going to be able to salvage it."
Chen Liu thought for a while, and then said in a low voice: "Two generals, we don't have the strength to attack the Zhao family's mansion now, there are a lot of family members in it, so let's go to some of the Zhao family's families who have committed too many crimes, these Zhao family's families don't live in the Zhao family's mansion, and there are no family guards, so we can kill them without much effort."

Wang Shishi was next to Liu Xia, staring at Zhao Jiabao with his eyes open, and suddenly he shouted to Liu Xia happily: "General, general, look, there is fire." The old horse went in, the old horse went in".
Liu Xia hurriedly raised his head and looked there, sure enough, the flame was very big, so he put down Bian Yujing on the horse, this attack, Liu Xia didn't plan to bring Bian Yujing with him, after all, it was a girl, it was better to stay in the logistics team. Bian Yujing also listened to Liu Xia's words obediently and stepped aside.
Liu Xia said to the seven hundred brothers of the Tiger Camp and the Wolf Howling Camp: "Now that our vanguard has solved the obstacles, money and food are in front, brothers!" ”
Liu Xia took the lead and rushed forward, and the other soldiers also followed reluctantly towards Zhaojiabao, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded the sleeping night.
Bian Yujing looked at Liu Xia who was constantly moving away worriedly, and his eyes shone with all kinds of complicated emotions............
Soon Liu Xia and the others came to Zhaojiabao, and the suspension bridge had been placed, so Liu Xia and the others easily broke through the trench defense of Zhaojiabao and directly entered Zhaojiabao.
Liu Xia took the personal guards and a brigade of the Tiger Camp to the Zhao family's mansion, and the rest of the people began to disperse into the Zhao family fort to find supplies, of course, this cannot be swallowed privately, monitoring each other, Liu Xia's military orders are always entwined in their ears.
The Zhao family's mansion is in the center of Zhaojiabao, built very luxuriously, and it is still brightly lit at this time, and they don't know that Zhaojiabao has been broken at this time......
