Chapter 322: The Dead Man's Ladder

Chapter 322: The Dead Man's Ladder

On September 13, 311 A.D., at about 3 o'clock in the morning, not far from the east gate of Tongguan

Yin Yi's stubble and red hair were all covered with snow, and even his shoulders and body were covered with snow, which looked like a red-haired snowman from a distance!

Yin Yi has been standing like this for a long time in this snowy day, but he can't immediately attack the east gate of Tongguan!

It's not that Yin Yi is cowardly, this rain of swords and arrows, the siege of the city, Yin Yi has experienced a lot! As for why there was no immediate attack, it was really because the snow was too big......

The heavy snow is very heavy, and there is no meaning of convergence at all, and it may even fall more and more, such a heavy snow, has dyed the entire Tongguan area white!

Because of this, the walls of Tongguan are also full of snow, and even this wall is covered with snowflakes, making this wall very slippery, even if Yin Yi uses a long enough rope to climb, it will be too slippery to climb because the wall is too slippery, and at this moment it is dark night, do you want to cut down trees and build siege ladders now? Once the loud sound of cutting down trees reaches the ears of the Tongguan defenders, what kind of sneak attack will they fight? It's tantamount to ventilating the defenders of Tongguan!

Obviously, Yin Yi was stumped! But fortunately, Yin Yi found that there really didn't seem to be any defense on the wall of Tongguan, and there was no figure in sight!

Of course! Yin Yi also thought about digging the soil at the foot of the city wall to fight, but this is a laborious and time-consuming job, and it is so snowy, the progress will not be fast, and it is easy to be discovered, how can this be good? Do you want to fly into Tongguan by yourself?!

And just when Yin Yi was worried, a noisy sound suddenly came from behind Yin Yi!

It turned out that it was Han Qian and Dong Zhao's men who came!

By the time Han Qian and Dong Zhao rushed to Yin Yi's side, Yin Yi had already looked at these two people with angry eyes, and said angrily: "Ge Laozi, Lao Tzu has been waiting for you two here for so long, why did you come now?" You see, the wall of Tongguan is so high and thick, and it is snowing so heavily tonight, how can you attack it? How to fight? General Zu really miscalculated this time! ”

Dong Zhao and Han Qian saw Yin Yi so angry, but they smiled at each other!

Yin Yi saw that these two people had arrived first, but in such a difficult situation, he still had the heart to laugh at himself together, so he was so angry that he didn't fight anywhere immediately!

"Ge Laozi, what do you two mean? Lao Tzu hasn't cured you two of you for the crime of slacking off on the march, you two dare to laugh at me? Say, what are you two going to do?! Didn't Lao Tzu leave a guide for you everywhere he went? Don't you see?! ”

Dong Zhao saw that Yin Yi was angry like this, so he didn't answer, but just glanced at Han Qian with his eyes.

Han Qian saw that Dong Zhao was reluctant to speak, so he had no choice but to say to the angry Yin Yi: "Yin Yi, don't talk about Lao Tzu all day long, Ge Lao Tzu's call, ** Who is Lao Tzu?" We were ordered by General Zu to keep cleaning up those dead bodies in Liangzhou along the way! ”

"What are you going to do with their bodies? Do you still have the energy to dig a pit for them and bury them? This is too mother-in-law! What happened to this ancestral general this time? Do something that doesn't matter! ”

When Dong Zhao heard this, he really couldn't listen to it anymore, and quickly interrupted: "Yin Yi is talking nonsense, this is General Zu's strategy!" ”

"What ploy?! Look at this Tongguan for yourselves, it's all snow, even the walls are covered with snow, even if this foot is bare, you can't borrow strength on the wall, unless you wait until dawn, we cut some wood to build some siege ladders, but in this way, there is no meaning of raiding at all, it is completely done with real knives and guns, and we will suffer a big loss! Even in the daytime, the snow won't stop, and you can't climb the wall at all! Hey, if you really stay up until the day to attack, why do you have to come in the middle of the night? Or why do you have to bring a siege ladder?! ”

Han Qian saw that Yin Yi was so anxious, and he was embarrassed to hide it from him anymore, so he quickly pulled Yin Yi's arm and explained, "General Zu has already expected this!" “

"Expected? Did you expect him to drag the dead? He's sick! ”

Dong Zhao couldn't listen to others say bad things about Zu Yi, not even Yin Yi, so he immediately stopped and said: "Yin Yi, you puppet, General Zu's strategy is something you kid can know?!" We brought these dead men here to build a ladder under this city! ”

Hearing Dong Zhao's words, Yin Yi's eyes suddenly widened, he looked at Dong Zhao incredulously, and was stunned for a long time before he said, "Really fake!?" With dead people? How to do it?! ”

Seeing Yin Yi stunned like this, Dong Zhao couldn't help but laugh a little, and he replied: "Wait a minute, you will know, we are waiting for General Zu and them to arrive now, as long as they arrive, we will attack!" ”

When Yin Yi heard this, he nodded for some reason, and seemed to suddenly remember something, and blurted out: "Then when the time comes, it's still my old Yin who will attack first, right?!" ”

Han Qian and Dong Zhao both laughed a little out loud when they saw that Yin Yi had not forgotten his position as a pioneer until now!

This time, Yin Yi was also a little embarrassed......

It didn't take long for Zu Ti and everyone else to arrive!

All the generals also surrounded Zu Ti!

Zu Ti nodded at Han Qian, Dong Zhao and the others, and ordered: "Let's start!" ”

"No!"

"Yes!"

Han Qian and Dong Zhao immediately took their men and horses to the east gate of Tongguan, and the men and horses of the two of them basically dragged a dead person for every two people and marched towards the city wall of the east gate together!

At this time, there were still no defenders on the city wall of Tongguan, and the Chang'an soldiers arranged by Zhao Yi didn't have the heart to patrol the night at all. This surrender is also treated in a sequential manner?!

And this group of Chang'an soldiers who have this kind of resistance have long been hiding in the city tower to bake the fire to keep warm, in their opinion, how can anyone attack such a strong wind and snow?

What's more, with such a big snowstorm, even if you look out of the wall, you can't see anything......

And at this moment, under the city wall of Tongguan, Han Qian and Dong Zhao's men and horses have piled up all the dead people under the corner of the city wall of Tongguan, and they have piled up steps at different levels, they use dead people as paving, and at the same time dig soil to cover the dead people's bodies, and after a while, they are piled very high, just like that, Han Qian and Dong Zhao's department have built more than a dozen steps piled up with dead people! (In fact, I have always said how high and thick the city wall of Tongguan is, but it is only compared with the general city wall, the main material of the ancient city wall is still loess, and the city wall is built by the plate construction method, so it will not be very high!) )

"Yin Yi!"

"The last general!"

"Up!"

"No!"

Yin Yi's blood boiled instantly, and with a wave of his hand, he took the men and horses of his headquarters to step on the steps made of dead people and began to attack the city wall of Tongguan East Gate!

There was no resistance, no accidents, Yin Yi was the first to climb the wall, and the long red hair was like a humanoid torch that illuminated the way forward for the Wujian army on this snowy night!
