The weather in Guangzhou is not very good.

But the rain upstream disappeared in Guangzhou.

The north of Guangzhou City is a large and small hill, although the mountain is not high, Ma Sanbao this position, can still overlook most of Guangzhou City.

In the open space north of the Pearl River, the higher the city wall is higher and higher.

Even a mountain peak was included. This is Yuexiu Mountain. On Yuexiu Mountain, there is a city tower that even Ma Sanbao does not dare to ignore.

This is Zhenhai Tower, this is the Hongwu period to build the city of Guangzhou Zhu Liangzu built, the building has five floors, overlooking the whole city of Guangzhou, it is said that on the Zhenhai Tower, the eyes look south to the Pearl River extreme into the sea.

Therefore, it is known as Zhenhai.

Others look at it as a place of interest, but Ma Sanbao looks at both sides of Zhenhai Tower, large and small forts.

The cannons on these forts have been repeatedly reinforced from the Hongwu period to the present. The last reinforcement was ten years from Chongzhen, and it has not been more than ten years since now.

From a distance, these various cannons cannot be seen clearly. But you can also see that the cannon is reflected in the sunlight, reflecting a dark iron light.

In addition to this, Ma Sanbao's gaze swept over the city wall of Guangzhou.

The city walls of Guangzhou have been strengthened during the Chongzhen period, Ma Sanbao is visually measured in about three zhang, various forms of city towers and turrets are densely packed, even if Ma Sanbao has seen the Changsha city wall, he does not feel that the Guangzhou city wall is much worse than the Changsha city wall, and he will feel that the two are between the two.

It's a fortified city.

Thinking of the war experienced by the army in the attack on Changsha. Thinking about the number of troops that were now marching towards the city of Guangzhou, Ma Sanbao felt a trace of worry in his heart for no reason.

"Will things go as smoothly as the general predicts?"

Ma Sanbao landed on the north gate again.

The north gate of Guangzhou is called Guide.

With the name of the north gate of Shaozhou, it is a routine.

Ma Sanbao had good eyesight, but he didn't put his mind on the name of the North Gate, but on the bustling crowd.

The city of Guangzhou is a big city. The population of Guangzhou is close to one million. Even outside the southern city wall of Guangzhou, like Yangzhou, there are a large number of illegal buildings, directly near the Pearl River wharf. A new southern city was even built to protect these buildings in the south.

Generally speaking, however, the more prosperous a city, the faster the city walls are expanded, and the faster the buildings overflow.

Fortunately, Ma Sanbao is in the north of Guangzhou.

If he is in the south of Guangzhou, he will encounter the situation of entering Guangzhou City before entering the city wall of Guangzhou.

Even so, Guide Gate is extremely busy, and I don't know how many people are waiting in line to enter and exit. Guide Gate is the central axis of Guangzhou City, and it is also the two counties attached to Guangzhou. The South China Sea, the boundary between the two counties of Panyu.

Ma Sanbao saw the busy city gate, and the people who were already waiting in line to enter and exit the city gate, suddenly smelled the opportunity. Almost at the same moment, he thought, "Take the gates." ”

Ma Sanbao is still young, and many times he doesn't think it through, for example, if he rushes over now, even if he can take the city gate, can he support the arrival of the army.

He didn't want any of these situations. It's just a desperate momentum for young people. said: "You go back and report to the general, saying that I have gone to seize the north gate of Guangzhou, please come to the aid quickly." ”

"Yes." One agreed, and immediately pulled out his horse and left.

Ma Sanbao drew his knife in his hand, shouted, and said, "Raise a banner for me and kill me." As soon as he pulled the reins, he whistled, rushed south, and shouted, "The summer soldiers have arrived." ”

The hundreds of cavalry behind Ma Sanbao shouted in unison: "The summer soldiers have arrived." ”

For a while, the sound spread far away, and the soldiers at the head of Guangzhou City also heard it, and they were dumbfounded, not knowing how to deal with it at all.

The soldiers who could fight well were all taken away by Ding Chukui, and the rest of the soldiers were all new soldiers, or old and weak soldiers, who didn't know how to react to emergencies at all.

Also not knowing how to react were the people who were entering and leaving the city of Guangzhou.

These people were stunned for a moment, and then they were like frightened sheep, running around, and some people in the city wanted to run out, because they should have felt that the city was not safe.

Some ran desperately into the city, probably because they felt that the city wall of Guangzhou had a protective effect.

Some people didn't know where to run at all, and even fell directly into the moat from the Guide Bridge outside the Guide Gate.

It can be said that there can be as much chaos as it can be.

Coupled with the carriages entering and leaving the city gate, the entire city gate was blocked for a while. If you want to close the city gate, you must first push these chaotic vehicles and people out of the city gate hole, otherwise it will not be closed at all.

The city gates were guarded only by a few old soldiers, and none of the fleeing people would stop to help them. Instead, it will add more mess.

Now Ma Sanbao's mind was blank, and he didn't think about anything, just held the long knife tightly and focused his attention on Guide. Work hard.

However, these horses were temporarily recruited in Qingyuan.

If you don't run, you can't see it. As soon as you run, you can stand tall and discerning.

The horses selected by Ma Sambao are the best of all horses, and Ma Sambao's riding skills are also the best among all cavalry, so Ma Sambao is almost a complete horse, leaving all the soldiers behind him.

In an instant, Ma Sanbao and his horse crashed into the crowd. For a while, it caused countless people waiting here to scream.

Ma Sanbao knew that he couldn't be soft at all. The long knife was wielded, and whoever stood in front of the horse was cut down with a single sword. Immediately, blood splattered.

Two passers-by, who had suffered an unwarranted disaster, were hit by a series of slashes and fell on the road. The people who were already panicked were even more panicked, and for a while, the sound of "puff and puff" diving sounded.

But all these people jumped into the moat.

The moat to the north of Guangzhou is an artificial river that connects the waters of the Pearl River. Not too deep. And most of the people in the south know water.

If you are above the official road, you may not be able to survive at all. Jumping into the river, there may be a way out.

Ma Sanbao's fierce spirit rushed over, which affected many people to rush to the city gate. As a result, the gates, which had been closed a little, were closed a lot.

For many years, these old soldiers have only guarded the city gates, scooping up oil and water from the hands of the people who enter and exit the city gates.

After a few moments, it was too late for them.

Because Ma Sanbao came to kill.

Ma Sanbao rushed to the city gate and crashed in, only to see the long knife waving, and several soldiers guarding the city gate were killed. He fell to the ground.

Ma Sanbao drove the people away. While waiting for the people behind to come.

After three or five soldiers chased after him.

Ma Sanbao immediately said: "You are here looking at the city gate and climbing the city wall from both sides. Wait for the great general to come, and before the great general comes, you will be dead, and you will have to guard the city gates. ”

"Yes." Several people agreed in unison.

These people were all selected from Zhang Xuan's pro-army. is not only strong in martial arts, but many people are also loyal to Zhang Xuan. It is the backbone of the Xia army. As long as there is an order, even if you fight to the last soldier, you will not give up.

"General, where are you going?" Someone asked.

Ma Sanbao tightened the knife in his hand and said, "I want to break into Guangzhou City." ”

Ma Sanbao didn't think much about this choice, but subconsciously felt that it should be so. But it is secretly in line with the art of war, and many times the war is fought with momentum.

Now that Ma Sanbao suddenly won the door, the two sides actually don't know much about each other's strength. For example, Ma Sanbao just knew that the troops in Guangzhou City were empty. But to what extent it is empty, and how many people there are, I don't know.

And the people in the city didn't know how many people from the Xia army came.

Ma Sanbao seemed to be reckless and continued to break into the city, and immediately pushed the battle into the city of Guangzhou, which would not only cause chaos in the city of Guangzhou, but also distract the attention of the soldiers of the city of Guangzhou. It also made the people in Guangzhou misjudge. I felt that the Xia army had already entered the city. Thus ignoring the assault on the ramparts.

After all, even if the city of Guangzhou is empty, there are still 10,000 people, and it is not very difficult to besiege the city gate occupied by only 300 soldiers and want to take it back.

It's just that Ma Sanbao's actions are sometimes faster than thinking, and instinctive reactions are better than many people's clever moves.
