Chapter 143: Hedong Yin Chi
Since Yin Chi's focus was on the banks of the river, there were not many defenders left in the east of the city, only less than two hundred. Coupled with the slackness of the guards and the rotation, there were less than twenty soldiers standing guard at the head of the city at this time!
Liao Chuan climbed to the top of the city first, easily eliminated the soldiers closest to him, and the people behind climbed up one after another.
At the darkest time before dawn, most of the people in Pusaka County were asleep. Even the people who were left behind to guard were yawning and blinking at this time.
At the head of the city, the soldiers who had been arranged to guard did not realize that their sentry posts had been eliminated at this time. On the ground at the head of the city, there were Hedong soldiers sleeping on the ground everywhere, and they didn't notice that the soldiers of the Huashan Army were killing them.
After Liao Chuan ascended to the top of the city, he immediately touched the guards, it was too easy to deal with these sleeping people. With the addition of 200 men, it took less than fifteen minutes for the city to leave a single enemy alive.
"Quick, hurry up and open the city gate to welcome the general into the city!" Liao Chuan gave an order to the people behind him, and he stood at the head of the city, picked up a torch and signaled to the outside of the city.
"Okay, Liao Chuan has succeeded, let's go!" Li Xin, who was more than two miles away, couldn't help but be overjoyed after seeing this signal.
Immediately, he took more than 800 people behind him and rushed all the way to the city. By the time he got there, the city gate was already wide open, and Liao Chuan was already waiting for them with people.
"According to the previous plan, you take people to the west of the city, block the retreat there, and you must not let Yin Chi run away. As for the other two gates, I'll send someone to open them! Act now and end the battle as quickly as possible! After the two met, Li Xin said to him.
"I understand!" Liao Chuan nodded and rushed towards the west of the city with five hundred soldiers and horses.
Li Xin divided his soldiers and horses into two parts, 200 people went to the south gate, 200 people went to the north gate, and he himself and the remaining 100 soldiers guarded the east gate.
Soon, the entire quiet county town of Kasaka became noisy. The sound of the army fighting directly woke up the people in the city, and some people who were not afraid dared to come out to see the situation at this time. Approaching the city gate, Li Xin found that there were people who were secretly looking at him and others.
"Here we go!" Li Xin didn't care about these people, but guarded tightly at the city gate, secretly calculating the time in his heart.
After about half an hour, a large number of footsteps were heard from the direction of the south and north of the city, and they were all approaching the east gate. This kind of footsteps seemed quite neat, and Li Xin was very familiar with it, which was a sign that only the trained Huashan Army had. Obviously, the gates of the north and south sides of the city were opened as scheduled, and the two armies outside the city were moving closer to him.
Soon, two armies appeared in front of Li Xin one after another.
"Follow the plan and go your separate ways! At each city gate, leave 200 soldiers and horses to garrison! After a brief explanation, Li Xin took the remaining nearly 2,000 people along the street and went straight to where Yin Chi was to kill him.
The place where Yin Chi lives is the county government of Puban County, and as the assassin of the former Qin, he was ordered to guard Puban County, and he should have had a mansion of his own. However, the imperial court was not strong, and before it had time to allocate funds to build, it was directly expelled from Guanzhong. Therefore, he had to settle down in the county government first.
On the same day, because he had learned the news of Li Xin's trip to Shangluo, Yin Chi was a lot more relieved, and he naturally slept a lot more peacefully this night! But what he didn't expect was that what he thought was a comfortable night as usual actually changed in the second half of the night.
When the sound of the fight began, he was in a sweet dream, and he was completely awakened at this moment!
"Someone, someone, what's going on out there? Why is it so noisy? After Yin Chi woke up, he immediately shouted loudly.
"Envoy, envoy, no, suddenly there was a sound of killing in the city, and it seemed that someone had entered the city. I took a look just now, and I seem to have heard the name of Huashan Army, but I'm afraid that someone from Guanzhong is calling! After shouting for a while, his old servant appeared in a panic at this time, and hurried as he ran.
"What? Did the Huashan Army call over? How is this possible? I've put so many guards by the river, are they all made of wood? How did you let the enemy come and not react at all? Hurry up, get my armor and weapons, and go out with me to defend against the enemy! As soon as he heard this, it was what he was most worried about, and Yin Chi couldn't help but exclaim.
"I don't know what's going on, anyway, someone must have entered the city!" The old servant was not sure if it was Huashan Army, so he had to say.
While talking, he helped Yin Chi change into armor, and after quickly packing up, Yin Chi gathered his own soldiers and hurriedly ran out of the county office.
"Woohoo!" Yin Chi and the others, who had just run out of the gate of the county government and had not yet walked a few steps, suddenly flew several feather arrows from the opposite side, and went straight into the chests of the few pro-soldiers who were running in front, seeing that they could not survive.
"There are enemies, everyone be careful!" As soon as he saw this posture, Yin Chidang even stopped, and then slowly retreated in the direction of the county government under the escort of his own soldiers. At this time, the surroundings were dark, and their last retreat was to go back.
Just as Yin Chi was looking for traces of the enemy, the next moment, hundreds of people suddenly rushed out from the opposite street, fired arrows at them without saying a word, and then killed them directly.
Naturally, it was Li Xin who came, and he didn't expect that he had just arrived at the door of the county office, and he actually ran into Yin Chi who came out directly. Although he said that he didn't know Yin Chi, but under this situation, looking at the other party's posture and dress, it was impossible for anyone else to be except Yin Chi.
"Kill the past and capture Yin Chi alive!" Li Xin drew ~ out his saber, pointed at Yin Chiyao, and shouted.
"Kill!" The troops shouted in unison, roared past Li Xin's side, and rushed towards Yin Chi on the opposite side.
Around Yin Chi, there were less than a hundred personal soldiers at this time, and there were as many as three or four hundred soldiers of the Huashan Army who killed him. Coupled with the momentum of the Huashan Army, the pro-soldiers around Yin Chi were a little frightened at the moment.
"It's not good, quickly enter the county government and wait for reinforcements outside the city!" Although Yin Chi does not have too high talent, he also understands that hard work is not a good way. So, after a little groaning, he immediately ordered.
When the crowd heard this, they hurriedly ran back towards the county office, and then closed the door of the county office. Looking like this, he is ready to hold on and wait for help, after all, Yin Chi's main force is on the bank of the river in the west of the city, less than ten miles away! Once they learn of the changes in the city, they will definitely rush to help.
It's a pity that Li Xin knew that he would have such an idea, so he didn't plan to give the other party the slightest chance at all. He has been busy for so long, isn't it just to capture the thief and capture the king first, and take down the head of Yin Chi first.
"Hmph, I want to rely on the county government to stick to it, I want to be beautiful!" Li Xin sneered, and with a wave of his right hand, the troops behind him immediately scattered and surrounded the county. Then, the army dismantled a roof beam from not far away, directly regarded it as a collision wood, and began to attack the county government.
"Sixth son, you take some brothers, take a detour to enter from outside the wall, and I'll attract their attention here!" When everyone began to attack the county government, Li Xin quietly instructed the captain of the pro-soldiers beside him.
Soon, Liuzi quietly retreated back with a part of his soldiers, and then went directly around to the north of the county government from the other side. The walls of this county government are no better than the city walls, and if you want to climb into them, it is much simpler.
Without much waste, Liuzi jumped in with a group of people, and then went straight to the front office.
Yin Chizheng led his own soldiers to resist Li Xin's attack outside, and he couldn't help but be secretly anxious at this time. He had been in this place for more than a day, and naturally understood that this was not a good place to hold on, but at this time he had no other way but to hold on.
"Envoy, it's not good, a group of enemy troops suddenly came in the back office, and they came towards the front office like a vicious god." Just as Yin Chi was holding on, some servants in the county government suddenly rushed out from behind, looking panicked.
"Huh? Damn Huashan Army, it's just too much of a deception, you guys guard it here, and the others will kill it with me! When Yin Chi heard this, he couldn't help but be furious.
At this point, he had no choice but to divide the soldiers around him into two parts and meet the enemy separately. However, in this case, the result is not good for both sides.
There was a loud "bang", and not long after Yin Chi left, the gate of the county government was knocked open, and the Huashan army outside the door immediately rushed in. Li Xin stood outside the door, did not enter the county office, but waited quietly.
Soon, there were bursts of fighting from inside, and less than a pillar of incense later, Yin Chi and the others were escorted by the six sons and sent to Li Xin.
Li Xin looked at the middle-aged man who was glaring at him, and felt in his heart that he had finally achieved part of his goal by going to Hedong this time. However, he is still quite curious about this person, of course, the most important thing is that he is more curious about the person named Yao Xiang.
"You're Yin Chi?" Li Xin looked at it for a while, and then said.
"Yes, who are you!?" Yin Chi said coldly.
"Me? My name is Li Xin! You've probably heard of that name, right? ”
"Li Xin? Huashan Army Li Xin? Didn't you go to Wuguan? How did it end up here? No, your original goal was me, the land east of the river, and going to Wuguan was just to confuse me, right? Hearing this, Yin Chi couldn't help but exclaim, but soon understood the key.
"You're right, I did go to Wuguan to show you, but it's also a fact that the army set off for Wuguan!" Li Xin nodded, this Yin Chi is still quite smart.
