Chapter 309: Leading the Troops to Surprise Attack

Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

Wang Feng: "......" He led the army to Yingchuan, but he didn't want to serve the country with his body! His brow furrowed and he was silent.

Liu Xiu said: "Since our army has arrived in Ye County, we should take Kunyang first!" ”

Wang Chang pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Uncle Wen is reasonable! ”

Yexian is located in the territory of Nanyang, at the junction of Nanyang and Yingchuan, while Kunyang is located in the territory of Yingchuan, also close to the junction of Nanyang and Yingchuan. It can be said that Kunyang is the springboard for the Han army to enter Yingchuan, and it is a must-take place.

Wang Feng took a deep breath and asked, "What if the reckless army ignores our troops and takes Nanyang directly?" ”

Liu Xiu continued: "We have laid a foundation in Yingchuan, and we can also let Nanyang have a way out." ”

Wang Feng thought about it, couldn't help but sigh, and said, "That's the only way!" ”

After some deliberation, the 20,000 Han troops headed by Wang Feng and supplemented by Wang Chang and Liu Xiu finally decided to enter Yingchuan according to the original plan.

If you want to fight Yingchuan, you have to take Kunyang first.

However, although Kunyang is a small city and very inconspicuous, the terrain is steep, and the city defense is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Liu Xiu felt that if his own side attacked Kunyang, it would be very difficult, and the casualties would inevitably be very heavy, but fortunately, his army had not yet entered Yingchuan, and Kunyang did not know that his army was coming, so he could adopt the tactics of surprise attack

Take Kunyang and minimize your own losses.

Wang Feng and Wang Chang both felt that Liu Xiu's suggestion was good, so they sent Liu Xiu to lead 3,000 cavalry to attack Kunyang first.

Liu Xiu did not act during the day, and when he waited until night, he led 3,000 cavalry to quietly leave Yexian and go straight to Kunyang.

Don't look at Yexian and Kunyang are two counties, but both cities are located at the junction of the two counties, and the distance between them is very close.

With the 3,000 cavalry received by Liu Xiu, they hurried all the way, and late that night, they successfully arrived outside Kunyang City.

This time, Liu Xiu also came with Jia Fu, Ma Wu, Cho Qi, Zhu You, Feng Yi, Gai Yan, Fu Jun, Zang Gong and others, it can be said that Liu Xiu brought out all the elites under his command.

After arriving outside Kunyang City, Liu Xiu did not let the team get close to the city, he took Jia Fu, Ma Wu, Cho Qi, Zhu You and others to go around the periphery of Kunyang first.

Kunyang is indeed a small city, but the city wall is not short at all, the city wall of three zhang and three zhang, that is the standard height of the city wall.

Liu Xiu and the others did not approach Kunyang City, and used the night as a cover to wander far outside the city.

The sentry at the top of the city could not see them, but because of the torches on the top of the city, they could see the situation on the top of the city clearly.

Perhaps because of the relationship between Nanyang in the west of Kunyang, it can be clearly felt that Kunyang's western city defense is far stronger than the other three city defenses, and there are many torches on the city's head, and mobile patrols holding torches can be seen from time to time.

It can be seen that Kunyang also focused on preventing the Han army that might attack from Nanyang.

Kunyang is defended on all sides, and the weakest defense is Dongcheng.

Liu Xiu took a group of people and waited, and when he turned to Dongcheng, he felt that the torches on the city were a lot sparser. He deliberately waited for two quarters of an hour, and for such a long time, there was not a single patrol on the wall of the eastern city.

After observing the whole circle, Liu Xiu knew it in his heart.

Jia Fu urged him to step forward, came to Liu Xiu's side, and whispered: "Lord, the city defense of Kunyang West City is the most perfect, the south city, the north city, the city defense is second, and the defense of the east city is the weakest, and this place can be used as a breakthrough for our army." ”

Liu Xiu nodded with a smile and said, "Junwen's words are very much in line with my wishes. Let's go, let's go back! As he spoke, Liu Xiu turned his horse's head, returned the same way, and joined his own brigade.

Then, Liu Xiu took his 3,000 cavalry and quietly bypassed Kunyang City, and arrived at the east of Kunyang City, stopping in a depression two miles away from Kunyang, and letting the soldiers dismount and rest.

Jia Fu, Ma Wu, Cho Qi, Zhu You, Feng Yi and others dismounted one after another, and automatically and consciously surrounded Liu Xiu's left and right. Liu Xiu looked around and said, "Cover the tent cloth!" ”

With his words, Long Yuan, Long Zhun, Long Xiao, and the six people of Xuying, Xufei, and Xuting immediately took out a camp tent that had been rolled up, unfolded it, and did not set up a tent, but put a tent cloth on the heads of Liu Xiu and the others.

Then the six of them, holding the hilts of their swords, stood round about the tent.

There was a tent cloth covering his head, Liu Xiu took out the fire fold, blew, and there was light in the tent, but the light was blocked by the tent cloth and could not be seen from the outside. Liu Xiu handed the fire fold to Zhu You, he picked up a stone casually, drew a square on the ground, he drew the west side of the square, and said: "Through the observation just now, the defenders of Kunyang focus on defending the western city, and the weakest defense is the eastern city

! I think that we can first send a group of vigorous brothers to secretly climb the wall of the East City, kill all the defenders, and open the city gate for the main force of our army! ”

Zhu You said: "Lord, let me go!" ”

Liu Xiu glanced at Zhu You and was silent. If it weren't for the war, Liu Xiu would definitely damage Zhu You, with your size, it's like climbing a city wall? Whether the rope can hold it or not, you can say both!

Choshi pondered for a moment and said, "My lord, many of my subordinates are good at climbing, so you can leave this matter to your subordinates!" ”

Liu Xiu's eyes lit up suddenly, nodded, and said, "In the second case, I can let Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Xiao help you!" ”

Choshi arched his hand and said, "Thank you, lord! ”

Liu Xiuzheng said: "In the second case, your task is to open the city gate, and you can't fight in the city, let alone break into the city!" ”

"My subordinates understand!"

Liu Xiu said: "Zizhang! ”

Ma Wuying said: "The subordinates are here!" ”

"After opening the city gate, you will lead a thousand soldiers and horses to penetrate Kunyang for me, and you must block the defenders of Xicheng within the scope of Xicheng!"

"Subordinates obey!"

"Gongsun!"

Feng Yi responded: "The subordinates are here!" ”

"After entering the city, you lead 800 soldiers and horses to attack the northern city, and be sure to defend the northern city and block the northern city!"

"Subordinates obey!"

"Juqing!"

Gai Yan arched his hand and replied: "The subordinates are here!" ”

"After entering the city, you lead 800 soldiers and horses to attack Nancheng, and you must block the defenders of Nancheng in Nancheng!"

"Subordinates obey!"

Liu Xiu glanced around at everyone and said, "The rest of the brothers, after entering the city, follow me to the county government!" It's ugly now, and when the day comes, we'll act! ”

"Yes! Lord! Everyone responded in unison.

The current Liu Xiu is already quite a general, and when he gives an order, it is called a simple. Obviously, he has already formed a perfect tactic in his mind.

After the pre-war meeting, Liu Xiu signaled to Zhu You, who blew out the fire, and after that, everyone lifted the tent cloth and went to prepare for the troops.

Time passed minute by minute, and when it was almost over, Choshi took Long Yuan, Long Zhun, Long Xiao, and more than thirty elite spies under him, and sneaked towards Kunyang City first.

Liu Xiu and the others were not idle, he said to the left and right: "Pass the order, the people will be grass, the horses will be bits, and the horses' hooves will be wrapped in cloth towels, and they will be on standby one mile away from Kunyang Dongcheng!" ”

The surrounding heralds bowed down one after another, and then scattered, running in all directions, lowering their voices, and conveying Liu Xiu's orders to the officers and men of the whole army.

According to Liu Xiu's meaning, the three thousand war horses were all wrapped in cloth toveins to cover the horseshoe, and then the bells on the horses were removed, and the horse's mouth was tied.

Then, everyone led by Liu Xiu tightly held the reins of the war horse with one hand, grabbed the sword under the ribs with the other, knelt on one knee, squinted their eyes, and quietly observed the situation on the head of Kunyang City.

Let's say that Choshi and his party are not wearing armor, and they are all wearing black night clothes. In the night, like ghosts, they silently sneaked under the walls of the Kunyang city wall. Then two spies stood side by side, leaning against the wall, and the other stepped on their thighs, kicked them on their shoulders, and as they stood up, the man on their shoulders raised his head and tilted his ears sideways

and listen to the movement above the city.

They were outside the city and did not see a guard standing on this section of the wall, but not seeing it does not mean that there is really none, and the guard may also be standing in the inner part of the city wall and cannot be seen outside the city.

However, as long as there is a person, then there must be movement, and no one can stand still unless he is asleep.

The spy who stepped on two companions had very good hearing, and the slightest movement within seven or eight meters could not hide his ears.

Since Choshi took over the spies, he has recruited a lot of talented people.

The man stepped on the shoulders of his two companions, tilted his head up, motionless, as if he had been frozen, and it took him more than ten minutes before he got down from them, walked up to Choshi, and whispered, "My lord, no one! ”

Hearing this, Choshi's face beamed with joy, and he nodded to one of his brothers who had already prepared. The man took off his claws from his waist and swung them twice, and with a flick of his arm upwards, the claws were thrown high above the city.

Click!

The iron claw hooked the arrow stack, made a soft sound, and after a moment, the spy pulled the rope hard, and felt strong enough, he grasped the rope with both hands, and his feet collapsed against the wall, like a monkey, and crawled towards the city at a rapid speed.

The crowd below looked at him intently. In more than ten seconds, he had already climbed the city wall. When he reached the top of the city, he flipped over the battlements and shrank in the shadow behind them.

He was thin and small, dressed in black, and shrunk in the shadows, as if he had blended in with the shadows, and even if someone approached, it would be difficult to find that there was still a person squatting.

The thin spy cowered in the shadows, his big round eyes and bones rolling around, silently surveying the city. At the head of Kunyang Dongcheng City, it is not that there are no sentry posts, but the sentry positions are very loose.

The nearest sentry to him was at least twenty-five or six meters away, and he was sitting on the ground, holding his spear, his head drooping, and he was napping, which is why he threw his flying claws without alarming anyone.

After seeing the situation on the city wall clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He grabbed the rope from the iron claw and lifted it up twice, repeating it three times. Choshi and the others waiting below could see it clearly, and people took out their claws and tied them to ropes.

When they got it right, they pulled the rope twice. The thin spies at the head of the city understood, and silently pulled up the rope tied to a dozen iron claws.

After that, he fixed these iron claws one by one to the arrows. He fixed his iron claws as he silently approached the sentry who was napping. This sentry was too close to them and had to be removed.
