Outside Yuci City, in the big military camp.

Su Dingfang is organizing the production of simple ladders.

This is a pre-agreed plan. Time can't afford to delay, if the signal is not sent tonight, the Yanmen army will launch a strong attack overnight, at all costs, in the shortest time, to capture Yuci City.

After Liu Bowen's enlightenment, Liu Mang's mentality has stabilized a lot.

There is still an hour left, and the deadline agreed with the lead is reached. Liu Mang has been dressed neatly, Liu Bowen and Su Dingfang resolutely oppose the young master personally going into battle, Liu Mang knows that he has not yet had the courage to break through the city first, but he still insists on personally supervising the battle.

In the army, the most nervous person is Li Hongzhang.

It was he who proposed to send a letter to the leader to persuade him to open the door and surrender the city.

Although he agreed, there was no movement. If this plan does not work in the end, whether it is intentional or unexpected, the result is the same, it is a big delay in time.

If this is the case, then although he Li Hongzhang cannot be said to be a sinner, but with the young master Liu Mang, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have a chance to come out in the future.

Of course, Liu Mang knew Li Hongzhang's state of mind at this time, walked up to him and patted him lightly on the shoulder. "Hongzhang, you stay in the camp tonight and assist Mr. Berwyn in handling military affairs."

Li Hongzhang hurriedly bowed and saluted. "Young master, can my subordinates request to follow the young master and enter Yuci City with the young master?"

Liu Mang smiled. "Hongzhang, I know that you are more anxious than me, but the so-called planning is in the people, and the success is in the sky, even if the son can't sacrifice the city as promised, the responsibility is not yours, don't have any worries."

Li Hongzhang knelt at Liu Mang's feet with a "poof", and he, who was able to speak well, shouted "Young Master", but he choked up and couldn't speak.

At this time, it is a great comfort for Li Hongzhang to hear such words.

"Hurry up, the army is about to move, now is not the time to get emotional."

The words of the young master Liu Mang made Li Hongzhang feel a heroic spirit in his heart that a soldier died as a confidant. He stood up, crossed his hands and saluted, and said solemnly: "Young master, if there is an accident in Yuci City, and Lianzijing fails to sacrifice the city as promised, his subordinates implore him to raise a three-foot white blade and be the first to rush to Yuci City!" ”

"Haha, yes, bloody!" Liu Mang pressed Li Hongzhang's shoulder hard. "However, everyone has their own strengths. Hongzhang, you are not the first fierce general to enter the battle, if I allow you, wouldn't it be an abuse of talent? will be poked in the backbone by the world. ”

"My subordinates really want to smear their livers and brains."

"Hongzhang, I understand your thoughts." Liu Mang said very solemnly, "Just because I understand, I don't want to, and I won't use talents indiscriminately." ”

Liu Mang has said this, and Li Hongzhang can't say more, he can only say that he will do his best to do less for the host.

Here, Su Dingfang has already assembled the team.

Five hundred sturdy warriors, all of whom had taken off their armor and dressed in the most convenient cloth.

This team, like last night, will ambush outside Yuci City. If you lead the way to keep the covenant and open the door to the city, this team will be the vanguard of rushing into Yuci. If the agreed time limit is exceeded, the army will launch a strong attack, and this team will be the first to rush to the head of Yuci Castle as the first to die.

In the barracks, the rest of the parts are also ready. Ladder soldiers, sword and shield soldiers, and crossbow soldiers are all fully equipped and ready to charge.

"Let's go!"

Su Dingfang gave an order, and five hundred warriors, under the cover of night, sneaked towards Yuci City.

……

Although Liu Mang personally supervised the battle as a young master, he instructed Su Dingfang in advance, and the troops were still under Su Dingfang's command.

At the predetermined location, the team lurked.

Looking at the dark Yuci City, Liu Mang had an inexplicable sense of excitement, an impulsive feeling of eagerness to try in his heart.

He even hoped that the lead would not send a signal, and that he would fight bloodily in exchange for a hearty victory!

"Dingfang, are you nervous about fighting?"

"Of course." Su Dingfang immediately gave an answer, "Every battle means bloodshed, so how can you not be nervous." Su Dingfang was silent for a moment and continued: "My subordinates still want to see the red light on Yuci City, hoping to take Yuci with the least loss. ”

Liu Mang exhaled heavily.

Yes, Su Dingfang was right.

Now, he is not a fledgling peasant child, not a reckless young man who only wants to avenge his father's hatred, but a local magistrate appointed by the imperial court to govern one side and protect the people.

As a young master who aspires to the world in the eyes of his subordinates, he should not put his personal likes and dislikes in the first place, and should not take relieving his anger and enjoying himself as the goal.

"Dingfang, you're right. You treat me as a primary school student who has come to the front line to observe and study, and don't affect your command because I am here. ”

Su Dingfang nodded. It's not early, and there is less than an hour left before the agreed deadline. Su Dingfang summoned the herald and ordered him to notify the standby troops in the battalion to make final preparations, and once he saw the signal rocket, he immediately launched a fierce attack on Yuci City!

Time, with a nervous heartbeat, passed rapidly, and there was less than a moment left before the agreed deadline......

Suddenly, Liu Mang's eyes lit up, and Su Dingfang immediately stepped forward!

On Yuci City, a red light sways quickly and rhythmically from side to side!

The long-awaited signal has finally appeared!

"Yanmen warriors, charge!"

Su Dingfang gave an order, and five hundred warriors jumped up and rushed straight to the east gate of Yuci!

200 zhang ......

100 zhang ......

Fifty zhang ......

Thirty zhang ......

The defenders of Yuci City finally discovered the Yanmen warriors who were speeding under the city.

"The Yanmen army is attacking the city!"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

Screams of terror rang out from the city.

"Whoosh ......"

Patches of feathered arrows flew down from Yuci City.

Although, one after another companions fell to the ground with arrows, the footsteps of the Yanmen warriors were getting faster and faster!

"Gaga...... Squeak squeak......"

The shouts of the city could not hide the sound of the heavy city gate opening, which was like a clarion call for victory in the ears of the Yanmen warriors!

"Rush!"

"Take Yuci City!"

The warriors of Yanmen finally broke out with an earth-shattering shout!

"Quack quack...... Bang Dang! ”

The suspension bridge fell down heavily, and in front of the Yanmen warriors, it was no longer a dark night, but a smooth road to victory!

"Rush!"

Inside the city gate, he led a small team to lead the Yanmen army and rushed to all the key points in the city!

"Finally, I won the ......" Liu Mang's hand holding the hilt of the sword trembled, he really didn't expect that the gate of Yuci City would open at the last moment!

"Young master!" Li Hongzhang appeared in front of Liu Mang, and under the firelight, Li Hongzhang's face was extremely red due to excitement. "Liu Xiansheng's subordinates led the troops and entered the city with the young master!"

"Good!"

Liu Mang grabbed Li Hongzhang's arm vigorously, and then, turned over and jumped on the war horse, the long sword in his hand, and in the firelight, a dazzling light was drawn!

"Rush!"

Liu Mang roared, and the accumulation of the past few days poured out at this moment!

"Rush!"

The army of Yanmen poured towards Yuci City like a tide......
