Chapter 1006: Medium Scheme
"No!"
Su Ji agreed and asked, "Your Majesty, what did the war start?" ”
Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a while and said: "In this way, tonight, the Song general Guo Li will open the city gate and let our army enter the city, and when our army captures Chengdu City, I am afraid that it will be dawn to completely take over the defense of the city, and the operation on your side will start tomorrow!" ”
"Understood!"
The day passed slowly, and at the beginning of the night, Nie Feihu came out of the camp with three thousand men and horses, and everyone received an order not to make a sound, and these three thousand people came to the gate of the East City without a sound.
In addition to Nie Feihu's 3,000 men and horses, Zhao Junsheng personally took Li Bao and 3,000 elite infantry and 3,000 cavalry to follow behind for strategy and reinforcements, and more than half of the ministers and military generals who accompanied him.
At the right time, a torch was lit on the tower of the East City Gate, and the torch shook three times in a row, Nie Feihu saw this, beat his horse and walked towards the city gate, and the three thousand people behind him also stepped forward.
As the city gate slowly opened, Nie Feihu was about to beat his horse and lead the team to the city gate, when a commander pulled him: "General, it's better to be careful, let the last general bring two thousand soldiers into the city first, if there is no accident, it is not too late for the general to bring the remaining one thousand men and horses into the city!" ”
Nie Feihu wanted to refuse, but when he thought that this was also a kind heart, he couldn't bear to brush off his kindness, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, you are careful, if you find anything wrong, immediately warn!" ”
"No!" The commander hugged his fists, turned his head and waved to the two thousand soldiers behind him: "Follow me into the city!" ”
When the city gate was completely opened, the city gate hole was pitch black, and the commander couldn't help but be frightened, but at this time the arrow had to be fired, he took the lead into the city on horseback, and the other soldiers entered in turn.
The two thousand men and horses soon entered the city completely, and Nie Feihu saw that there would be no warning in front of him, so he boldly walked towards the city gate with the remaining 1,000 people.
The commander who has entered the city keeps turning his head to look at the left and right sides, after entering the city gate is an urn city, there is definitely an urn city in the city gate of a state city like Chengdu City, which is extremely common, but there is no urn city behind the gate of the general county seat.
The commander shouted while riding a horse: "Where is Guo Li, Guo Li?" ”
Guo Li's voice came from the city tower: "In, in!" The last general is Guo Li, and he asked the general to lead the troops into the city first, and the last general will mobilize men and horses to attack Chen Xian and Ye Tongzhang with the general! ”
The commander did not doubt him, and entered the urn city completely with two thousand men and horses, and at this time he found that the walls on both sides were still pitch black, except for the torches on the city tower, and a few fires under the roots of the walls on both sides, the other walls were all pitch black.
Faintly, there was a cold light on the city wall.
What is that? Could it be the moonlight reflected by the weapon? Thinking of this, the commander's face changed greatly, and he turned his head and shouted: "Retreat, exit, there is an ambush!" ”
It was too late, Chen Xian, who was hiding in the city tower, heard this shout and knew that the cadres had discovered the abnormality, so he immediately made a decision and shouted: "Close the city gate!" Soldiers, release the arrows! ”
Nie Feihu had already walked to the city gate, and was about to enter the city, when the drawbridge suddenly rose, and the city gate was quickly closed.
Nie Feihu's expression changed greatly, and he shouted: "Follow me to grab the city gate, kill quickly, kill!" ”
"Kill—"
"Kill—"
At the gate of the city, a large number of shouts of killing were heard in the city gate and in the urn city, and a large number of torches were dropped in the urn city to illuminate the two thousand association troops who had entered the city.
The commander turned his horse's head, but was blocked by the dense enchantment army behind him, and countless arrows shot down from the walls of the four directions.
"Ahh
"Don't panic, follow me up to the city wall, kill—" Seeing that he couldn't turn around and exit the city for a while, the commander had to shout and rush to the stairs on both sides with his co-conspirators.
But at this time, it was already full of obstacles, and it was impossible to rush up for a while, and the arrows above the head kept being set, and the commanders and some soldiers who rushed in front were shot one after another, and they were shot into hedgehogs in the blink of an eye.
The uncommanded assistant army was even more panicked, unable to escape, wanted to fight but could not find the enemy, and the assistant army was trapped in the urn city waiting for death.
At the city gate and in the city gate cave, there was already a fierce confrontation at this time, Nie Feihu carried a war knife and killed the Quartet, and the Song army was hacked to death one by one, but at this time the suspension bridge was completely raised, and without the suspension bridge, the remaining 1,000 cadres and infantry could not cross the moat.
The soldiers could only jump off the moat and swim over, but when they climbed ashore and were about to rush to the gate hole, a large amount of timber was suddenly thrown down from the castle tower, and in the blink of an eye a large pile was piled up, and a pot of fire oil fell from the sky.
The strong smell made the faces of the soldiers of the cadres change greatly, and one by one the generals pulled Nie Feihu and ran back, "Run, run!" ”
Nie Feihu rolled down the wet pyre, a torch fell from the city tower, and landed right on the pyre, and the pyre, which was drenched with fire oil, suddenly burst into flames.
The cloak on Nie Feihu's body, which had not yet left the woodpile area, burned in the blink of an eye, and Nie Feihu was so frightened that he pulled out his legs and ran in the direction of the moat.
With a "poof", Nie Feihu, who had already become a fire man, jumped into the moat, the river instantly extinguished the fire, Nie Feihu swam across the opposite bank with seven hands and eight feet, and one turned over and lay on the ground gasping for breath.
At this time, his cloak was burned, and a small part of his battle robe was burned, and if he was a little late, I was afraid that his face would also be burned and disfigured.
Nie Feihu stood on the other side of the moat and stared blankly at the soldiers who were blocked by the fire in the city gate, they had no hope of retreating, so they could only turn around and rush towards the enemy with their knives, but in the end they all died tragically under the enemy's knife because they were outnumbered.
Gradually, the battle in the city gate cave ended, the city gate closed quickly, everything in the urn city was blocked by the city gate, and the city and the outside became two worlds again.
The battle continued in the urn city, but as time passed, the shouts of killing gradually weakened, leaving only the sound of bowstrings and screams, and in the end, the screams also gradually disappeared, and the city returned to calm.
Nie Feihu knew that the two thousand Xiecong troops in the city were finished, which didn't make him feel heartache, after all, the Xiecong Army was the Xiecong Army, they were adapted from the Song Army that had just surrendered, and they didn't get along for a long time, and they didn't have any feelings.
What really hurt his heart was the dozens of veterans under his command who were blocked in the city gate and could not exit, and these people had followed him for many years.
Two miles away, Zhao Junsheng and the ministers and generals of the ministers and generals saw the entire process of entering the city and being ambushed by the urn city.
Scammed! Fooled!
Zhao Junsheng's face was blue with anger, after so many years, this was the first time he had fallen for the enemy's plan.
Everyone around him can feel that Zhao Junsheng seems to be bursting out of monstrous anger at any time, no one dares to speak out, no one dares to touch the mold at this time, no one wants to be the object of Zhao Junsheng's anger.
At this time, a large number of torches were lit on the city wall, whether it was the external front city wall or the other three sides of the urn city wall, they were brightly lit, and the defenders seemed to be busy, they lined up to walk down the city wall, it seemed that they were going to clean the battlefield.
After a long time, Zhao Junsheng spit out two words in his mouth: "Go back!" ”
The ministers and generals all breathed a sigh of relief, he was worried that Zhao Junsheng would lose his mind in anger, and forcibly ordered the army to attack the city, but fortunately, Zhao Junsheng suppressed his anger and restrained his negative emotions.
The army returned to the camp, the soldiers returned to the camp tent under the command of the generals and colonels, and the ministers and generals all followed Zhao Junsheng to the tent, and the civil and military stood on both sides, and no one spoke.
Lin Jinghui had a cold sweat behind his back, and he stood up and knelt down to plead guilty: "There was an error in the intelligence, so that two thousand men and horses died at the hands of the enemy, this is the responsibility of the minister, please Your Majesty to surrender!" ”
At this time, Zhao Junsheng was apprehensive, if it weren't for Li Song's hard persuasion before, preventing him from insisting on leading troops into the city to rob the city in person, I was afraid that he would also be trapped in the city and unable to come out.
The ministers and generals remembered the ambush in the urn city just now, and everyone only felt their hearts tremble, it was too scary, fortunately the emperor did not personally lead the troops into the city, otherwise, they didn't dare to imagine what would happen next.
Zhao Junsheng's gaze fell on Lin Jinghui, "If you hadn't been by my side for many years and were personally promoted by me, I would have wondered if you were a fine work of the Song Kingdom!" You get up first, now is not the time to be held responsible, I want you to find out the truth of this matter as soon as possible, why there is an intelligence error! ”
Lin Jinghui felt that he had walked on the guillotine, and at this time, he was like being amnestied, and said repeatedly: "Yes, the minister obeys the order!" With that, he got up and stepped aside.
At this time, Nie Feihu, who was wet all over, walked in in a dejected manner, kneeling in front of Zhao Junsheng with a miserable expression, "The minister deserves death, please punish Your Majesty!" ”
Zhao Junsheng said: "What are you guilty of? ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister was eager to make meritorious contributions, lost his vigilance, did not send someone to check the situation before entering the city, and made the mistake of lightly attacking the enemy, if it wasn't for the minister's carelessness, he would never have lost these two thousand men and horses in the urn city!"
Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a long time, "It's not all your fault at this time, I also fell for Guo Li, and I allowed you to make meritorious contributions!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "If you have something to discuss tomorrow, let's go down and rest!" ”
The people did not say a word, but bowed and withdrew one by one.
After Lin Jinghui returned to his camp, he had a straight face and a serious expression, "Come on, go and call the phantom over!" ”
Soon, a young man dressed in black walked into the tent.
"Meet the Commander!"
Lin Jinghui said: "You know what happened to Fang Cai, right?" ”
"I heard!"
"There is a mistake in the intelligence, I suspect that there is a problem with the 385 sent to infiltrate the city and the 633 sent to connect with it, this time we lost 2,000 people, although these 2,000 people have just been reorganized by the Song army, but such a big failure is caused by the error of our black-clothed guard's intelligence, otherwise Your Majesty will not believe Guo Li, this time it can be said that Your Majesty has lost face, Your Majesty's anger may erupt against the black-clothed guards at any time, so I want you to sneak into the city overnight to investigate the matter clearly, Success, not failure! ”
"No!" The young man in black agreed, hugged his fists, turned around and walked out of the tent and disappeared into the night.
