Although Yang Xiaoshan's words were certain, he still felt a little empty in his heart. However, when he noticed that there were some villagers on the city wall of the West Gate now, he felt that he should be eighty or ninety percent sure.

Originally, there were 200 people on the west wall of Yong'an, half of the Qing army and half of the villagers. However, due to Lin Fengxiang's attack in the south, the 100 Qing troops were transferred, leaving only 100 Xiangyong here to watch the wind. And the head of this Baixiang Yong is the supervisor Tang Zhenwu, who was originally a small leader under Su Baode, the leader of the regimental training, but because of his ill health, he did not go to the Guijiang ferry with Su Baode and escaped a catastrophe. Yong'an really has no capable people, and he was forced by Al Jinga to lead this team.

Tang Zhenwu's name sounds like Kong Wu is powerful, but in fact, he is just a civilian in Su Baode's regiment, and he can say a few sour poems, and the prisoners are also bought with money. At that time, he was still very worried that he didn't even have the strength to kill chickens, and he was afraid that he would become cannon fodder on the front line. Now he is glad that he has been assigned to the West Gate, where there is no long hair, and it seems that his life cannot be lost for the time being.

Just when Tang Zhenwu was intoxicated that everything was safe, Yang Xiaoshan had already finished explaining today's tactics. He led Chen Yucheng and the others out of the hiding place and rushed directly under the city wall. Instead of immediately building a ladder to attack the city, everyone lit the firecrackers in their hands and threw them at the city wall. Hundreds of strings of firecrackers exploded in the passages on the city walls, and soon a thick cloud of smoke rose from the city walls, with a choking smell.

"Take a cloth to cover your nose and take a ladder! Velocity! Yang Xiaoshan shouted that this was his "smoke bomb" strategy, inspired by his experience in the game Counter-Strike in his previous life. The day before yesterday, when they used firecrackers to make a noise, although they wasted a lot of gunpowder from the demons, they themselves suffered from firecrackers. The smoke and smell of the firecrackers in the Qing Dynasty are much stronger than in the previous life, which is really not "environmentally friendly", and the taste is very unpleasant.

The villagers were confused by Yang Xiaoshan's attack strategy, and they were originally ready to throw rolling wood and stones to fight with their instincts, but as a result, the smoke came together, and they couldn't see the southeast and northwest clearly. The special smell of sulfur from firecrackers was really choking, and the timid villagers began to flee one after another.

Chen Yucheng led the people into six teams, grabbed the ladder and quickly climbed to the city wall. Yang Xiaoshan took the rest of the people and continued to throw firecrackers below. Although some people were injured by the rolling log thrown by Xiang Yong, the vast majority of them successfully climbed the wall.

As soon as the wall was on the wall, the momentum of the Taiping army was different, if there were still some doubts under the city, at this time, everyone was suddenly full of confidence, and the city wall was full of the Taiping army's killing shouts. Chen Yucheng and others actually couldn't see the Xiangyong in the smoke clearly, but they had experience in killing the enemy, and when they encountered people without turbans, they directly served with knives and guns, killing one accurately, and most of the Xiangyong were put together temporarily, with no actual combat experience at all, and they were powerless to resist in the face of such a fierce attack by the Taiping Army.

"Don't fall in love with the war, hurry up and open the city gate!" Yang Xiaoshan shouted, every minute is critical at this time, although the western city wall is basically controlled by the Taiping army at present, but people from other parts of the Qing army may come to support at any time, the battle situation is changing rapidly, and no one knows what will happen in the next moment.

Chen Yucheng, who was still indulging in killing just now, woke up suddenly when he heard Yang Xiaoshan's shout, and immediately led people to the city gate to kill.

If the Qing army had a general with rich experience in actual combat, he would find that there were not many Taiping troops here, and if he organized the retreating Xiangyong again, lined up under the city wall to block the attack, delaying time and waiting for reinforcements, then the Taiping army would probably fall short here. But at this time, Tang Zhenwu, the leader of the township, was a wine bag and rice bag, and he himself was frightened by the Taiping army, and under the pretext of "moving rescue troops to Lord Aljing'a", he ran away from the rear of the town.

The unorganized and unorganized villagers found that their head Tang Zhenwu was gone, and no one was in love with the war, and they only hated their father and mother for missing two legs, and they were hugging their heads everywhere.

Chen Yucheng opened the city gate, Yang Xiaoshan strode in, and the excited Taiping soldiers shouted: "The first to enter Yong'an - the military commander Yang Xiaoshan!" "He was given a rank on the spot. At this time, everyone had the joy of victory on their faces, this battle was so easy to fight, and they took Simon so easily, and the double meat in a month was in hand.

Yang Xiaoshan, who entered the city, calmed down, although they had already broken through the city gate, there were only more than a hundred people here, in case a large number of Qing demons came to reinforce them, they would probably not be able to resist and would be pushed back. In addition, he also has one thing in his heart, that is, the grain and grass in Yong'an City. The Taiping Army wants to take Yong'an as a foothold, and grain and grass are very important. In case the enemy found that there was no hope of defending the city to burn the grain and grass, it would be fatal for the Taiping army, and even if Yong'an was taken, the meaning of victory would be greatly reduced.

"Liang Chengfu, Lan Chengchun, the two of you take fifty people and me to find the Yongan Grain Depot. Chen Yucheng and the others stayed here until our reinforcements arrived. Yang Xiaoshan was deeply impressed by the performance of Liang Lan and the two in Liangshan, and decided to take the two of them to guard the grain depot.

Lan Chengchun was very happy when he heard Yang Xiaoshan call his name, "I'll grab my tongue and ask." ”

"Where's the granary?" Lan Chengchun grabbed a surrendered villager beside him and viciously put a knife on his neck.

That township shook and shook Suosuo, and was so frightened by the fierce and vicious Lan Chengchun that he couldn't speak, and Lan Chengchun was so angry that he was about to cut him down at that time.

Yang Xiaoshan hurriedly waved his hand to stop Lan Chengchun, he saw that this Xiangyong's face should be an honest person, and he was scared silly by Lan Chengchun. He loosened the rope that this villager had tied to his body, and asked gently: "Take us to the grain depot in Yong'an, and let you go when we arrive, and I will never embarrass you." ”

Only then did Xiang Yong regain his strength, and he thanked Yang Xiaoshan for not killing him, "Master Jun, don't kill me." I'll lead the way, and I'll show you the way. ”

==========

Repelled the men and horses of the Taiping army in the north and south, and the artillery of the Taiping army in the east did not hurt Yong'an very much, and Wu Zhifu and Al Jing'a just breathed a sigh of relief. But not long after they were happy, the Qing troops from the north and south came to report almost at the same time that they found that the Taiping army from the north and south had 300 people each moving towards the west gate.

"It's broken, Simon may have changed!" When Arzia heard the news, he reacted first.

"What to do? How's that good? Governor Wu also panicked, and the joy of repelling the Taiping army just now immediately disappeared without a trace.

"I'll take five hundred people to support, let's take the shortest road in the city, we must be faster than them, Lord Prefect, don't worry." Arjinga immediately got up and prepared to go to the rescue.

Before he could go out, Tang Zhenwu panicked and crashed in: "The two adults are not good, the bandits have come in from the West Gate!" ”

"What? Simon has been lost? Arjinga grabbed Tang Zhenwu's collar and yelled angrily.

"Just lost。。。。。。 I'm here to inform adults that I'm going to support. Tang Zhenwu was also a little flustered and stammered.

"You useless shit! Go to hell! Al Jing'a was so angry that he pulled out his saber and killed Tang Zhenwu on the spot.

"It's over, it's all over now." When the prefect of Wu heard that the West Gate was lost, he immediately sat down on the ground.

"Lord Prefect, this place is under your command, I'll go and take Ximen back!" Arjinga hurriedly went out of the door to gather his soldiers and marched towards the west gate.
