Chapter 594: Fire (1)
If these gates are heavily guarded, then that's it, there is no time to fight with them, delay time, and if there are Jin people fleeing from these gates, they can only rely on them, and find the largest number of soldiers and horses outside the city to chase and kill, such a large city, it is unlikely to kill all the people in the city without leaving a single place.
If there are not many soldiers stationed there, then take it, and when you set fire, you can burn the fire in these places, so that Haoge and others have nowhere to escape except for the north gate, and after they escape from the city, they will calmly chase and kill, and swallow up Haoge's troops and horses to the greatest extent.
Why not sneak up on Hauge in the middle of the city at night?
Please, the other side has more soldiers and horses than them, and the terrain is more familiar, even if they are scattered and can be broken individually, but in case of stubborn resistance, things do not go well, but someone will block the city gate, surround and kill.
Wouldn't this be another tough battle, and it would inevitably cost a lot of men, and what was the difference between it and an ambush in the middle of the road?
If there is fire that can help, why bother to make it easy.
"Poof!" Hai Dongqing cut off a golden head, used the money rat tail on his head, tied a knot on his belt, and hung it around his waist, this is all money.
Just as he was about to raise the knife to continue, he suddenly found that there was no one around to cut his head.
"These stinky boys, they're pretty fast." Hai Dongqing scolded with a smile.
Of the five hundred men under his command, more than two hundred of them finally put on their neat gold clothes and armor, and when they arrived at the north gate, there was silence here, only thirty or forty people, each surrounded by a few fires, half-asleep and half-awake to keep vigil for the night.
When I saw Hai Dongqing and them, I didn't think it was strange, I thought that I was coming back from patrolling the street, and I beckoned them to go over to warm up by fire.
Now it's simple, more than two hundred people swarmed up, instantly wiped out all these golden soldiers, and then merged with the soldiers who had no clothes and armor to change, and killed the rest of the Jiannu who were still asleep at the city gate.
Only in the end, when there were more than 100 people left, maybe the action was bigger, someone was awakened, and everyone no longer hid, and they fought each other together, completely destroying this team of golden people.
"Big brother, what are we going to do next, do you want to go back and help?" One of his subordinates asked.
"No, guard the city gate and answer Captain Li." Hai Dongqing replied, glanced at his subordinates, always felt that something was wrong, and then looked at himself, he was still wearing the yellow armor of the golden man, and patted his head, "By the way, let the brothers change all these things on their bodies, otherwise when they go out of the city later, the night is dark and the wind is high, and it will not be good to cause misunderstanding." ”
"Also," Hai Dongqing shouted to his subordinates who turned around and wanted to leave, "After changing clothes, call the brothers, and get rid of the pile of sand and gravel at the city gate together, don't block the way out of the city." ”
Without the city gate, there was no danger to rely on, so these subordinates of Hauge simply found some sand and stones, and piled them up half a person high as a support.
"Yes." The subordinates clenched their fists and gave the order.
Everything has been done, Hai Dongqing took all the brothers to wait at the city gate, according to his estimate, half an hour should have almost arrived, and there was no one on the way to the north gate.
"Big brother, there won't be any surprises, right?" Someone asked next to Hai Dongqing.
"No, it won't." Hai Dongqing was very determined, "Didn't you be there in the battle of the blue flag, Captain Li commanded Ruoding, and killed all the people sent by Huang Taiji, and the means were very clever." ”
I happened to ask this person who took refuge later, and I really haven't seen it, "Big brother, I haven't followed you at that time, tell me about it." ”
"How can I have this spare time now, let's talk about it later." Hai Dongqing smacked his lips, "Right now, there are so few people in Shengjing City, even if things are bad, can you still trap Captain Li?" ”
"That's that, that's." The subordinate chimed in.
As soon as he finished speaking, a fire suddenly burst out in the city, and then one after another, the flames began to bloom everywhere.
"Look, isn't that done?" Hai Dongqing stood up excitedly, "It seems that we made the hour early, and it should be half an hour now." ”
In the middle of talking, directly in front of them, I don't know how far away, "swish", a small flame instantly ignited into a big fire, and the light emitted was a little dazzling in this dark night.
Subsequently, on the left and right sides of them, several more such blazing fires were ignited, and the fire was so great that it even illuminated the faint outline of the entire Shengjing City, and the sound of "Bi Peeling" burning also blew into their ears with the wind.
"Hey, Captain Li had a lot of fun this time, but I like it." Hai Dongqing stroked his palms and smiled.
"Big brother, these places should be the gates of Shengjing?" Among Hai Dongqing's subordinates, there are many people with delicate thoughts, and they quickly saw the clues.
"Really." The rest of the people echoed one after another, and they also stayed in Shengjing for a few days, and the location of each city gate was still clear.
"Well done!" Hai Dongqing waved his hand excitedly, he knew what Li Dingguo wanted to do, "Now the Jin people can only flee to the north gate, hehe, Xue Ping Amin and they are afraid that they have been waiting impatiently for a long time, no, such a good thing can't be enjoyed exclusively by these people." ”
"Listen to me, when you go out of the city later, you are not allowed to unload your armor, each finds his own mount, and continues to chase and kill the Jinren, how about it? Can it still work? Hai Dongqing shouted loudly.
"No problem!"
"I didn't even sweat just now, so I just continued to move my muscles and bones."
These people are equally excited.
"Okay, okay, let's spread out, and my own brothers are coming." Hai Dongqing began to order, "You guys, just guard the door for me right here." ”
"The rest, come with me, all wait by the side, my brother will naturally let them out of the city, if there is a golden person chasing them, they will greet them with me."
"Yes!" The mercenaries of the Yehebu replied with a bang.
"Captain, quick, it's time to leave." Some subordinates anxiously shouted at Li Dingguo.
"It's coming, it's coming." Li Dingguo threw the torch in his hand far away and landed in a courtyard, and then with the sound of "crackling", a firelight rose into the sky.
The process of sneaking up on several gates went unexpectedly well, and no more than twenty people were left behind at each gate, and all of them were asleep, and it was almost effortless to solve them.
Then, Li Dingguo left some men and horses at each gate, and ordered them to pour butter and sulfur saltpeter, and when the appointed hour came, they would light the fire together, and he himself led the people to continue to hurry to the next city gate, and finally controlled these gates.
After taking the last city gate and setting it on fire, Li Dingguo rushed to the north gate with the rest of his men, and unfortunately happened to pass by the place where the Jin people were intercepted and killed before.
However, Li Dingguo saw that the Jin people didn't react yet, so he didn't worry, and simply set the whole area on fire.
