Chapter 23: Climbing the Cliff

Li Yin didn't answer Laihu'er's words first, but asked him: "My subordinates dare to ask the general, in this humble city, are there people we can trust?" ”

Lai Hu'er has always known the importance of this humble city, so he has already sent a detailed work to this city, so after listening to Li Yin's question at this time, he immediately gave him an affirmative answer.

Li Yin said: "After listening to the previous words of his subordinates, the general and all the officials present here must know that I and the people in our brigade do not have the ability to fly the eaves and walk the wall, and the reason why we can successfully raid Scorpion Island is due to the iron hook and long rope and excellent physical strength, and now if you want to climb the cliff of the humble city, unless someone on the cliff throws the rope, otherwise the subordinates are really not sure." ”

Lai Hu'er thought about it, and finally made up his mind: "There can be ropes, and I can also select some elites from the army for you, if you can open the city gate, it will be a great achievement, how about it?" ”

Li Yin knelt on one knee, clenched his fists and said loudly: "The last general will definitely be able to live up to his heavy responsibility!" ”

After hearing this, Zhou Fashang on the side nodded with satisfaction.

It turned out that the reason why Li Yin was able to appear in the general's camp tent at this time was recommended by Zhou Fashang.

The city of humble luxury can not be attacked for a long time, and Laihu'er has a headache, so he convened the generals again on this day to discuss countermeasures, everyone discussed for a long time, and failed to find a feasible strategy, Zhou Fashang was at this time, suddenly remembered the battle of Li Yin Scorpion Island not long ago, so he told everyone.

Laihu'er also held the idea of using a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and decided to let Li Yin give it a try.

……

Two days later, it was dusk again.

Under the cliff in the northwest of the Humble City, four hundred soldiers led by Li Yin were waiting in a hidden place, preparing to climb from here.

Among these 400 people, most of them are carefully selected elites in the army, and each of them has amazing arm strength.

The cliff they are about to climb, although it is the lowest place among the three cliffs in the humble city, but there is also a distance of nearly 100 meters, if you don't have a good arm strength, you will have no strength when you go halfway, you can't go up again, you can't go down again, and the result can only be to fall to death.

Li Yin kept looking up at the cliff, but until his neck was sore, and he didn't see a rope thrown down, and he was about to close his eyes and take a nap, so Zhou An pushed him, "Brigade Marshal, rope!" ”

Li Yin opened his eyes and saw that there was already an extra thing floating in the wind on the cliff at this time.

The first half of this thing is indeed a thick rope, but the second half is made of sheets, clothes, linen and other messy things, and Li Yin has deep doubts about its solidity.

After Li Yin and the others walked under the "rope", he stretched out his hand and pulled, "Our fine work, it's too miserable to mix in it, we can't even get a long rope!" ”

Having said this, Li Yin still made a gesture to be the first to go up, but several soldiers were worried that this "rope" was not strong, and they were vying to be the first to go up.

Li Yin waved his hand to everyone and said, "Don't fight, I have more experience than you, and I can deal with emergencies, and you rabbit cubs are a little worse!" ”

Laughing as he spoke, he pulled the "rope", kicked the cliff, and quickly climbed up.

Although the cliff is extremely steep, there are occasional protruding rocks and trees growing on the cliff for Li Yin to settle down and rest for a while.

It is late autumn now, and the wind at night is particularly strong, blowing the surrounding trees to make a swishing sound, Zhou An and others at the bottom of the cliff are holding their breath, looking at Li Yin climbing higher and higher, when they see the "rope" in his hand, and finally grasp the thick rope, they are relieved.

The rope made of sheets, clothes, linen and other things seemed to be quite sturdy, although it looked frightening.

After another half of the sound, Li Yin finally climbed the cliff without danger, and before he had time to rest, he took out three long ropes from the package he was carrying, tied them on the nearby tree, and then threw them down, and then collected the rope he had just climbed, still to the side, although Li Yin didn't have an accident just now, he still felt a little loose, so it was best to abandon it.

After doing this, he rested breathlessly against the trunk of the tree.

On the cliff at this time, except for Li Yin himself, there was no one else, and the fine work who threw down the rope was probably already gone.

Looking around from this cliff, the scenery is very good, but under this beautiful scenery, there is an infinite killing opportunity.

After a while, Zhou An and two other soldiers also climbed up, and the three of them also had three long ropes on their bodies, and they were immediately tied and thrown down, so that there were twelve ropes on the cliff, and more soldiers could come up at once.

After an hour or so, the four hundred soldiers basically came up, but three people still fell to death, one because of physical strength and let go, one because of the failure to grasp the rope, and the last one was just up to the cliff, unable to stand firm, one fell back and fell.

Li Yin said in a deep voice: "All rest in place for an hour, don't make a sound, violators will be killed!" ”

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and I couldn't see my five fingers, only the Sui army camp and the humble city in the distance, emitting a little light.

An hour passed slowly in silence, Li Yin stood up, took off the saber on his back, and said to everyone: "Go!" ”

After they went down to the place where they were, they walked through a small wood, and then passed through a dwelling, which was where the gate of the humble city was located, so the cliff that Li Yin and they climbed was actually the most suitable location for climbing, and if they came up, if they were too far away from the city gate, the chance of being discovered was much greater.

After Li Yin and the others got off the top of the cliff, they stopped in the grove for a long time.

After secretly observing for a long time, Li Yin found that every three minutes, a patrol team walked by, and the patrol was quite close.

However, three minutes was enough time for Li Yin.

When the next patrol team walked by, Li Yin took the lead in rushing out of the grove and leading everyone straight to the city gate.

The city gate is the most important thing in a city, and there are soldiers there to defend it day and night, and when Li Yin and four hundred others rushed to the city gate, those soldiers were stunned for a while, and then they held their weapons and asked in Goryeo.

However, Li Yin replied to him with a bright knife, he suddenly rushed to the man, cut it into two with a knife, and then pounced on the other person, and killed the person in an instant, Zhou An and the others also shot almost at the same time, and shot several people in the city who wanted to ring the warning gong with crossbow arrows.
