Chapter 211: Uprising

This is also the reason why Xiao Tianjian is not in a hurry to attack the city this time after he arrived in Luzhou City, don't look at the excitement they are fighting outside the West City Gate these days, in fact, the main purpose is to contain the defenders in the city, and attract the attention of the defenders to the West City Gate, but Xiao Tianjian does not want to consume too many troops in the strong attack, after all, the soldiers and generals he has assembled are basically the backbone and elite of Xing Tianjun, if it is like the original battle against Xiangyang, if there are heavy casualties, Xiao Tianjian is not willing to bear such losses.

The plan to attract the defenders had already been achieved, but what was not beautiful was that the foggy weather they expected and agreed on had not arrived, so that Xiao Tianjian could only wait, and now that the fog had finally come, Xiao Tianjian informed his generals of his original arrangement.

When the fog fell the night before, Xiao Tianjian made arrangements in the camp, most of the main forces will still stay in the west of the city, as soon as the day dawns, they began to bombard Luzhou City, and the soldiers in the west of the city collectively shouted in the dense fog, making a posture of taking advantage of the dense fog to attack the city, and sure enough, the attention of the defenders and officials in Luzhou City attracted the attention of the west of the city, and they looked at the dense fog under the city with wide eyes with panic, and they had to be careful that the shells would fall on their heads from time to time.

But as everyone knows, at this time, a group of people began to gather in the east of the city from all directions in the alley inside the east gate of the city, a fortune teller who looked like an honest face suddenly took out a small copper waist card from his arms, a group of people gathered around him saw his waist card, and immediately took out a similar waist card from his arms, and saluted him together, the fortune teller in a robe smiled, and did not say much, after receiving a salute from everyone, With a wave of his hand, he led these people in different costumes into a small courtyard, and soon these people came out of the small courtyard, but each of them had an extra long cloth bag, which quickly dispersed, and gathered from all over the east gate.

At this time, there were only less than 300 officers and soldiers left at the east gate, and they were basically old and weak in the city, and most of the stronger soldiers were either transferred to the west of the city or to the north of the city at this time, and the east of the city has not seen the shadow of a thief for so many days, so the defenders have ignored a lot of the east city gate.

Although Wu Dapu also asked the city to implement martial law, the government did not provide food to the refugees and people in the city, and the people had no way to always go out to find food, so although martial law was imposed in the city, in fact, the people were still relatively free to move, which also created space and opportunities for these Xing Tianjun's meticulous workers to operate.

Gradually, about 100 people gradually gathered in the area of the East City Gate, and after waiting for a while, the fortune teller who took the lead saw that there was no one of his own people to continue to gather, so he didn't wait any longer, and suddenly made a whistle, and then threw the shabby robe on his body to the ground, revealing the strong suit he was wearing inside, and then shook off the long cloth bag in his hand, and in a blink of an eye, he pulled out a sharp single knife wrapped inside, and quickly took out a piece of white cloth and wrapped it around his head.

"Brethren! Do it! The "fortune teller" raised his single knife and roared loudly.

The rest of the people gathered over all kinds of people, at this time, also pulled out their own hidden weapons, some with knives, some with an iron shovel, and some people obviously couldn't find the weapons in their hands, just holding a thick wooden stick, and some towards a flat pole, in short, the weapons they used were very varied, but there was one thing in common that each of them quickly wrapped a white cloth around their heads, so that everyone could see at a glance who was their own.

So the hundred and ten people roared together and rushed out of the alley one by one, rushing towards the east gate.

At this time, the Luzhou Mansion surnamed Liu in the city was left behind at the East City Gate, and this Liu Tongju was originally focused on the direction of the West City Gate at this time, and constantly sent people to the West City Gate to investigate the battle situation over there, and he didn't notice the place under his eyelids at all, including these officers and soldiers who stayed at the East City Gate, they basically focused on the west of the city, even if they didn't pay attention to the west of the city, they basically paid attention to the outside of the East City Gate, staring at the thick fog with wide eyes. I was afraid that a group of Xing Tianjun's men and horses would suddenly rush out from behind the dense fog.

So when this group of people suddenly rushed to the East City Gate from the alleys, the defenders on the side of the East City Gate basically had no mental preparation, and someone accidentally saw these people rushing out of the fog, so they were stunned for a moment, and there were still people who didn't use their brains to shout and scold: "What people? What for? ……”

However, when more and more people with white cloths poured into the city gates, these officers and soldiers realized that something was not quite right, and they realized what was happening with their brains, so they shouted: "Spies! They are spies of the army of thieves! It's time to take the door! ”

As soon as someone exclaimed, the rest of the people came back, so Liu Tongju, who had just come out of the small room under the city gate, hurriedly shouted and called for the officers and soldiers to exterminate this group of thieves.

But these Xing Tianjun who killed the city gate are not easy to deal with, since they are selected to stay, not only are they brave, but they are also very clever, and they are also very loyal, everyone knows that now is the time to work hard, so these people will never dare to step forward at this time.

Under the leadership of the "fortune teller", the 100th person crashed headlong into a group of officers and soldiers who had just run out of the city gate cave like a hungry tiger and a wolf, and the sword light and sword shadow immediately flashed in the city gate, and for a time the screams and scolding resounded throughout the east gate.

These Xing Tianjun's subordinates all had the will to die, so they didn't say anything when they started, and they didn't even care about their own safety, but in an instant, they killed dozens of officers and soldiers who ran out of the city gate hole, and then snatched the weapons of these officers and soldiers, they became much more fierce, and immediately under the command of the "fortune teller", a few people rushed into the city gate to clear the officers and soldiers in the city gate hole, and the rest rushed up to the city gate tower like a tiger to seize the city gate tower.

The officers and soldiers who were caught off guard did not have time to organize any effective resistance, many people were frightened, and even did not even think of resisting, under the assault of this group of Xingtian military troops, more than 300 officers and soldiers suddenly turned into birds and beasts scattered, and even Liu Tongju, who was in charge here, did not have time to run away, and was cut to the ground by the "fortune teller" who took the lead on the spot, and the human skull rolled out of the distance, and when he stopped, his mouth was still wide open, as if he was calling something, and his eyes were wide open. There was still a look of horror in his eyes, but in the blink of an eye, his two eyes lost their brilliance, his pupils began to dilate, and the last sight he saw was his headless body spurting blood in front of his eyes, and countless big feet rushed over his head......

As soon as Liu Tong, who was in charge, was sentenced to death, the remaining officers and soldiers were even more demoralized, and they didn't know how many thieves there were in the city, so they immediately scattered and fled in all directions in the city, exclaiming along the way: "The thieves have entered the city!" The East Gate is lost...... Run! ”

Although these Xingtian troops paid the price of more than a dozen casualties, it can be said that they easily captured the east city gate, and dozens of people worked together to open the city gate as quickly as possible, and at the same time immediately used a few cannons abandoned by the officials and soldiers on the city wall on the city wall to ignite and fire three cannons.

Luo Li led his troops to wait quietly in the dense fog hundreds of steps away from the east city gate, Luo Li tried his best to make a stable demeanor, not to pass on the anxiety in his heart to his subordinates, his face was full of confidence, but in fact, he had no bottom in his heart, after all, Xiao Tianjian told him that someone would meet them in the city, and he didn't know if there was a spectrum or not to open the city gate for them, after all, it had been nearly a month since they last evacuated Luzhou, No one knows whether the remaining subordinates have really mixed into the city, and whether they can successfully hold on for so long without being caught by the government, and they have not received any news so far, if the city does not succeed, then their sneak attack on the east gate this time will definitely be exposed, and finally turn into a formal assault, in that case, their half a month will be wasted.

It has been more than half an hour since he led the troops here, and the fog in the sky has gradually begun to dissipate, and the dense fog has turned into mist, and the figures of people can already be seen in the distance, if there is no movement, they can no longer use this fog to hide their bodies in the east of the city, but there is still no movement in the city.

Luo Li then looked at the direction of the city gate, and was about to give the order to retreat a certain distance, in case the officials and soldiers in the city saw their figures, but faintly heard a chaotic shouting and screaming from inside the city gate, and there were also many people's screams and screams.

After Luo Li, who was hesitating, heard this sound, his spirit immediately lifted, including the generals behind him at this time, their faces also showed joy, and they stood up without an order, and began to pack up the armor on their bodies, organize their equipment, and prepare to attack.

After a while, there were three loud noises from the direction of the city gatehouse, and Luo Li immediately raised his big sword and roared: "Brothers! Our brothers in the city have taken the gates! Come with me into the city! ”

After thousands of Luo Li's subordinates heard this, they raised their arms and cheered together, and then under Luo Li's leadership, they rushed towards the east city gate like a raging tide.

Outside the east city gate, the officers and soldiers also set up a lot of deer and horses to resist horses, but at this time they could no longer stop a large number of Xingtian soldiers and horses, and the tide-like Xingtian soldiers quickly crossed these obstacles, pushed them down or carried them aside, and then continued to rush forward without leaving any trace.

Those Xingtian military troops who had already captured the city gate tower did not even have any interest in putting the drawbridge, and cut the rope of the drawbridge with a knife, and the drawbridge fell with a loud noise, raising a piece of dust, and after a while, Luo Li took the lead and rushed to the drawbridge with the army, rushing into the urn city like a swarm, and then pouring into the city gate in large numbers.

Under the leadership of Luo Li, the soldiers and generals who entered the city in advance quickly took over the defense around the city gate, covering the remaining soldiers and generals to continue to enter the city, and at this time, there was a noisy shouting from the west of the city, and a group of officers and soldiers rumbled from the west of the city to the east gate of the city, and ran head-on into the Xingtian generals who had entered the city, and then the two armies began to start a street battle in the city.

Originally, Wu Dapu came to the west gate of the city early in the morning, and commanded to resist the attack of Xing Tianjun, but after waiting for a long time, he only listened to Xing Tianjun firing artillery, and constantly made earth-shattering shouts and killing, but did not see Xing Tianjun attack, at this time Wu Dapu was a little suspicious of Xing Tianjun's purpose, and after a turn of thought, he began to have an ominous premonition, and was about to send people to the east and south of the city to investigate the situation over there, and by the way, he wanted to send troops to strengthen the defense force on both sides, and at this time he heard a shout of killing from the east of the city.

Wu Dapu only felt that his head was dizzy, and he almost sat on the ground, he already understood the reason why Xing Tianjun was so bluffing in the west of the city, it turned out that Xing Tianjun did not plan to storm Luzhou City at all, but had already infiltrated the spies in the city, and took advantage of this time to seize the east gate.

But Wu Dapu was still unwilling, and hurriedly dispatched a group of men and horses to the east gate, hoping that the defenders of the east gate could hold out for a while, and Liu Tongju could lead the troops to resist for a while, as long as the city gate was not lost, then they would still have the opportunity to exterminate the Xing Tianjun in the city and keep Luzhou City.

However, when the soldiers and horses he sent had not yet arrived at the East City Gate, they ran into the defenders who had fled from the East City Gate, and informed them that Liu Tongju had been killed at the East City Gate, and that the City Gate had been captured by the Xingtian thieves.

There is nothing to say next, the defenders still have a certain combat effectiveness if they defend the city, but the street battle meets the wolf-like Xing Tianjun and Luo Li, a war maniac, it can only be given in vain, under the fierce blow of Luo Li's troops, the defenders who rushed to the east gate of the city were just a face, and they were defeated by them, and they ran around, and Luo Li led the troops directly to kill the area of the West City Gate.

At this time, the defenders in the city have become frightened birds, and they have all lost their fighting spirit, although Wu Dapu has the heart to resist to the end, but He Nai's soldiers have no fighting spirit, he can only lead dozens of family members to fight to the death to stop Luo Li's soldiers and horses, but soon all died under Luo Li's hands.

When Xiao Tianjian entered Luzhou City, the war in the city had basically ended, and only a few officers and soldiers were still in a small area for useless resistance, but it was only a matter of time before it was resolved. Luzhou City was completely controlled by Xiao Tianjian.

In this battle, Wu Dapu, the prefect of Luzhou, was killed on the spot, Liu Cheng was sentenced to be killed on the spot, and Ma Mingyu was killed on the spot, and at the same time, dozens of recalcitrant officials and generals and hundreds of officers and soldiers were killed by Xing Tianjun, and more than 2,000 officers and soldiers were captured to defend the city.
