Chapter 399: Guarding the East Gate

Lan Ziyi frowned when he heard this, and asked:

"Why did you say that, sir?"

Qiu Xiaozhi took two deep breaths and swallowed his spit, then grabbed Lan Ziyi's hand and said:

"Wei Hou, when the demon thief rushed to the door just now, he pressed the whole line, completely ignoring his own life or death, I stood on the wall with the soldiers and saw that the momentum was so frightened that my legs were weak, but since the door was closed just now, the demon thief retreated from the door, and now only a few people are left hanging outside the door.

The demon thief deceived the door with the front foot today, and the back foot came to support, and it was impossible for him to retreat because the door was closed. The demon thieves have been driven to a dead end by us, if they do not act like us, they will soon be finished, Lei Youde is brave and strategic, it is impossible not to see this. With his troops, which are several times larger than ours, he can be besieged on all sides, so why do he have to attack Ximen? This is a feint, Wei Hou, this is a sound attack from the east to the west! β€œ

Qiu Xiaozhi's analysis was quite thorough, and Lan Ziyi turned around to look at the other generals around him after hearing this. Everyone is a young and promising general, and there may be unexpected omissions in a hurry, but they will definitely not be turtles with shrunken heads and pretend not to see their surroundings. After exchanging glances with Lan Ziyi, everyone nodded in agreement with Qiu Xiaozhi's opinion.

Qiu Xiao said directly:

"Weihou, the west gate wall is already full, and there is no need to let the soldiers climb the wall. Quickly withdraw the men and guard the gates of the other camps. β€œ

Lan Ziyi looked at the sergeants of the various battalions who had just finished filling up and lined up neatly, shook his head and replied:

"The army was in chaos just now, and it was hard to gather the whole army, and now we can finally let the soldiers line up and climb the wall, how can we remove people halfway? Instead, he shouted an order, one advance and one retreat, and the whole army will be in chaos again, and we will have nothing to defend when the demon thieves attack. β€œ

Qiu Xiao said straightly:

"That's it, so what?"

兰子义 says:

"It's simple, when the captain set up camp that day, the four camp walls were repaired, and the soldiers who had already walked under the wall did not need to stop, and then went up to the wall, and then walked along the wall to the north and south. The soldiers who did not go up the wall were separated from the middle, and the back row retreated according to the original way, and went to the north and south gates to climb the wall according to the distance from the north and south gates. β€œ

Then Lan Ziyi said to Qi Rongxun:

"The sound of the east strikes the west, the sound of the east hits the west, one side will naturally attack the other side, I see that there will be a fierce battle in front of the east gate, can you take a hard trip with me?"

Qi Rongxun smiled when he heard this:

"That's what I'm doing in the army, so why work hard?"

Lan Ziyi nodded when he heard this, and then instructed Qiu Xiao to say straightforwardly:

"Mr. Xiaozhi has been commanding in front of the West Gate for a long time, and if you understand the situation here, then you will continue to hold on here. You help me bring a message to Ling Lang, let him come down and organize the army to be diverted to the south and north gates, and when things are arranged, he will go to the north gate to command the defenders. β€œ

Lan Ziyi turned his head and said to Tao Zhuhu:

"Big brother! The South Gate is yours! β€œ

Hearing this, Tao Zhuhu hugged his fists and sang:

"Chase the tiger and get the order! Don't worry, young master! β€œ

At this time, Qiu Xiao asked incomprehensibly:

"Wei Hou, it was just an expedient measure for me to command the soldiers at the head of the city just now, each battalion in the camp has its own battalion generals, I and my son are clothed, how can I go beyond the bounds?"

Lan Ziyi pouted his tongue, then pressed Qiu Xiaozhi's shoulder with one hand and said:

"Sir, it's hard to put into words, but now there are only a few of us in the camp who lead the troops, so don't shirk anymore!"

Qiu Xiaozhi was very surprised when he heard this, but he immediately calmed down, answered "yes" coldly, and turned around and went to the west gate.

After everything was settled, Lan Ziyi nodded to this Qi Rongxun, and the two passed side by side among the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, while Tao Zhuhu shouted to Tao Zhutu from the other direction:

"Saburo! Protect the young master, don't let the young master take risks again! β€œ

Tao Zhutu turned around and shouted to Tao Zhuhu, "Big brother, don't worry", and then the two brothers were surrounded by people who thought differently and disappeared into the sea of people.

Lan Ziyi and Qi Rongxun led the team all the way to a hurry, and some soldiers brought Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhutu to put them on. On the way, Lan Ziyi looked at the shotgunners of the Shenji Battalion and asked Qi Rongxun:

"The shotgunners of the Shenji Battalion wrap their guns so tightly, how will they ignite and shoot later?"

Hearing this, Qi Rongxun pointed to a shotgun and said:

"Wei Hou, take a closer look."

Lan Ziyi listened to Qi Rongxun's words and took a closer look at the gun, only to see that although the canvas was strict, a small tent was set up in the powder pool and the fire rope to prevent rain, and the soldiers were also very careful with their guns, trying not to let the rain pour into the gun.

Seeing this scene, Lan Ziyi gave Qi Rongxun a thumbs up, and he said:

"Qi Hou's arrangement is really proper."

Everyone walked fast, and it took a while to pass through most of the barracks, along the way, Lan Ziyi and Qi Rongxun kept gathering the sergeants of each battalion who were left behind, and when they arrived outside the east gate, the two had gathered a large number of people.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and although it was daytime, there was no sunlight to be seen, and Lan Ziyi was wondering if it was getting dark.

The soldiers in the camp were led away by the sound of gongs and drums at the west gate just now, and now the rain is pouring down in front of the east gate, and it is dark, and the tents on both sides are empty and messy, and it seems that the soldiers are in a hurry.

Looking at the east gate where there was no one and no one was invincible, like a ghost domain, Tao Zhutu whispered to Lan Ziyi:

"Young Master, why do I feel so evil at this door?"

Lan Ziyi replied:

"Third brother, there are thousands of bloody men next to you, even if there are ghosts popping out, what's so scary?"

At this time, Qi Rongxun raised his head and shouted to the watchtower next to the gate:

"Is there anyone else up there?"

After Qi Rongxun shouted, his head popped out in the watchtower, and one of the soldiers said:

"General! There are people! We don't dare to run around when we come to stand guard! β€œ

Lan Ziyi nodded when he heard this, the quality of the soldiers in the Beijing camp is still reassuring. Qi Rongxun then asked:

"Is there a thief outside the door?"

The upstairs soldier replied:

"This general, isn't the demon thief attacking the West Gate? Why did you suddenly come to the east gate? With such a heavy rain, you can't see things clearly ten steps away, and the thief has to find the way first if he wants to come, right? We haven't found any thieves coming, so don't worry, general! β€œ

Qi Rongxun lowered his head and exchanged glances with Lan Ziyi after asking, he gestured to the soldiers next to him, and then said:

"The demon thief didn't come, did he go to attack the other camps?"

兰子义 says:

"The south gate is also close to the demon thieves, maybe they are going to fight there. But now there are soldiers at all the gates, and I don't think it's a big problem, and if there is a problem, then we have a problem at any door. β€œ

Qi Rongxun says:

"The rain is so heavy, and the thieves haven't come, so let's take shelter from the rain in tents."

Lan Ziyi smiled:

"Qi Hou is not kind to do this, the soldiers are all outside in the rain, what do you make the soldiers think?"

Qi Rongxun also smiled:

"I don't object to Wei Hou's love for soldiers like children, but since you don't have the ability to go to the camp wall to fight the demon thief, just honestly go into the tent and hide for a while, your body is not as hard as other soldiers, and you will fall ill if it rains down."

While Qi Rongxun and Lan Ziyi were talking, the soldiers who followed slowly climbed the ladder to the camp wall. There was a captain of the Imperial Forest Army who climbed the wall and led the way along the camp wall.

The raindrops fell on the sergeant's face like a pour, and even his coat could not prevent the rain from seeping through the cracks from soaking his clothes.

The sergeant went away and scolded:

"It didn't rain so hard a few days ago, so what's wrong with today? God is trying to drown us all? What the hell weather!

We should light torches in this weather, don't you? β€œ

When the sergeant in the back heard this, he said:

"Can you light a torch in such a heavy rain? Can you point me to lose you a tael of silver, do you believe it? β€œ

As soon as the sergeant finished speaking, he hit the back of the person in front of him, and the person behind him hit the sergeant's back again, and the whole team was scolding.

The sergeant who was hit by the sore nose scolded:

"Why don't you leave the one in front? The people in the back are still waiting to come up! β€œ

But the sergeant who took the lead was unmoved, he stood still, hunched up, tensed his muscles, and the long knife he had carried in his hand was now in his hand. The sergeant shouted:

"Who's up ahead?"

The army was shocked when they heard this, but it was wartime, and the soldiers would not fail to understand what this sentence meant. The soldiers who followed immediately had weapons in their hands and began to look out of the wall.

After the roar, there was a dead silence on the front wall, the people in the back could not see the scene in front of them, and the ground outside the wall was extremely dark, and the officers and soldiers were now blind, completely unaware of what was like around them.

Everyone was waiting nervously, but there was no movement, and the sergeant who followed the long knife hand couldn't wait, and after swallowing dryly, he asked the long knife hand:

"I said, ....... you see?"

Before he finished speaking, the long knife hand in front of him, which was as still as still as an iron tower, burst forward with a roar, and the sergeant blinked in shock, and when he opened his eyes, the long knife hand had already cut out a rain of blood.

As soon as the sergeant was about to tell the long knife hand not to cut the wrong person, a rope flew out of the darkness outside the wall and gloved the long knife standing on the wall, and then the long knife hand was pulled down the camp wall by the rope with a scream, and disappeared into the darkness.

The other sergeants who had been on the wall together were shocked, and they were thinking about how to react when many ropes flew from outside the wall, and several hands poked out from the wall, and those who had not yet stood firm were dragged by this sudden pull, and the long knife hand was dragged into the darkness in front of them.

This darkness is like a hell that eats people without spitting out bones, and the soldiers are suddenly frightened and scream. A soldier shouted:

"Hell yes!"

A veteran soldier next to him immediately scolded:

"Fuck you! This must be a demon thief, what are you called if you don't fight back? ”

Without a command, the soldiers had already begun to kill, and the shotgunners on the wall opened fire in the darkness, but the scene illuminated by the sparks of the guns overwhelmed the crowd.
