Section 703 Assault on Isfahan (2)
Shi Yiying said: "Yes, we are here, and the army is behind!" ”
Suddenly, Zhang Liangcai was overjoyed, so excited that even tears were about to flow down, and he wiped his eyes!
Zhang Liangcai, one of the spies, was ordered to go to Isfahan to infiltrate after completing his agent training in five years. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
With more than 1,900 days and nights in foreign lands, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are in the den of tigers and wolves!
Painstakingly run a pharmacy and work after gaining a foothold.
At the beginning, he was numb to what his superiors said that our Datang would call.
Because he signed an agreement, if his superiors did not send him, he would never be able to return to his homeland!
If it weren't for the fact that he had to pay a batch of information every year, he would almost have thought he was going to stay here forever.
From panic to numbness, to the excitement of recent years, he heard the news that the Tang army was approaching.
Today the dream comes true, the brothers are just outside the city!
The life of a spy is very rigorous, and after he collects intelligence, the passing Datang intelligence agent will issue a notice in the market (by appointment in advance) to inform Zhang Liangcai that he is coming.
Then Zhang Liang prepared the information and told the intelligence officer where to get it, the two would not meet, it was for "death throw", so that Zhang Liang would be difficult to expose.
Therefore, the gold coin is extraordinary, which indicates the highest level, and everyone is face-to-face, and Zhang Liangcai accepts the task in person.
"Our army has been assembled outside, preparing to attack Isfahan, with the Great Food Emperor Allied Army as the lead, deceive the defenders, and enter the city directly!" Shi Yi told Zhang Liangcai.
"You mean I'm going to concentrate my men on the gates?" Zhang Liangcai understood at a point.
"Exactly, how many people can you mobilize?" Shi Yi asked him.
"I have 80 slaves, all trained in combat!" Zhang Liangcai said fiercely.
"Enough!"
"When does it start?"
"Tomorrow at noon!"
"Okay, I'll personally lead the team and transport more than a dozen truckloads of medicinal materials from the warehouse outside the city into the city!" Zhang Liangcai seems to have been prepared and has predicted the action steps.
"You have to be careful!" Shi Yi reminded him.
"Don't worry, I'll go back to Luoyang!" Zhang Liangcai is actually from Luoyang.
……
At noon the next day, it was already meal, and the soldiers guarding the city gate of Isfahan were eating collectively in the inner side of the city gate, and there were not many soldiers guarding the city gate, and the big cannibals above the city gate also avoided the noon sun, and stayed in the city gate tower to eat, and the people who ate quickly were already drinking tea.
As we all know, it takes a long time to drink tea.
During the reign of Caliph Umar from 634 to 644 A.D., Caliph Umar ordered that all vines be cut down, even the decorations with grape motifs should be erased, and all drinking was forbidden.
Coupled with the hot weather, the Persians like to drink tea, and they drink tea leisurely, which helps digestion.
The wind and the sun were beautiful, and the officers and men were lazy.
Located in the interior of the Empire, this place has been peaceful for a long time, and nothing has happened.
Although there was a war in Khorasan, it was a war in a distant land, and the Persians could not imagine that a large army of the enemy could cross the barren Persian plateau, where it was difficult to survive, and only the bravest caravans dared to come, and as for small troops, what could they do.
A large group of people came, and the two guards in the city saw that it was the famous Tang man in the city who came with a long train of carriages, and he had a good business, and every once in a while he would bring many carts of medicinal herbs and medicines.
Zhang Liang was a celebrity in the city, he was not only a doctor prescribing medicines, but also wholesale and selling medicines, and his business was very large, so the convoy was armed and escorted, and a large group of his slaves wore leather armor, carried large scimitars at their waists, and there were shields on the carriages.
The guards in the city secretly envied the brothers at the city gate who were blessed, that Tang man was very generous, and every time the brigade transporting medicinal herbs passed through the city gate, he would reward the doorman with a lot of money, and the cool oil and safflower oil he sent out were very popular.
They were only thinking about money, but they did not notice the dust rising not far away, and soon it turned into a cloud of smoke, and the guards on duty in the city saw a large number of people rushing towards the road like a sea of people.
They didn't even expect an enemy attack, but confused where the troops came from?
Standing high and looking far away, what catches your eye is a mess of tribal flags, and there are many tribes in the undeveloped big food.
Unaware that it was an enemy attack, the guards at the head of the city watched dumbly as the cavalry gradually approached the city, and the vast expanse was full of people, and flags fluttered on the flat ground like clouds.
A troop of cavalry rushed forward like arrows from a string.
So many cavalry?
There was a bad feeling of hygiene, even if the other party's armor was a tribal army, he felt that something was wrong, and finally raised the alarm: "Enemy attack, hurry, hurry, close the city gate!" ”
The gates can't be closed!
Zhang Liangcai watched the sword soldiers in the distance get up and went to the city gate hole, and when he was halfway there, a big cart that had done his hands and feet in advance overturned, and the medicinal herbs were sprinkled on the ground.
So they got stuck in the doorway to pick up medicinal herbs and repair cars, because of their familiar faces, those gatekeepers did not drive them away, and even went to help!
When they heard the sound of shouting from the city, the gatekeepers got up in a hurry, and the gatekeeper who was standing on the inside of the city gate with Zhang Liangcai ordered the men to drive people and drag the vehicles aside, and then closed the city gate.
The convoy of Zhang's mansion has not yet entered the city, so I have to apologize.
He was still a little apologetic, but what he never expected was that he only felt a pain in his neck!
When I touched my hand, it was full of blood!
He turned his head in disbelief and looked at Zhang Liangcai, who was still smiling at them just now, holding a dagger in his hand, revealing his fierce face!
Zhang Liangcai jumped away and shouted: "Do it!" ”
Killing officials?
Without hesitation, his slaves took out their scimitars, picked up their shields, and slashed at the stunned cannibals.
The gates of the city were in chaos, and the Great Eaters, who had lost their command, were being pursued and killed by slave soldiers who were smaller than them, and those slave soldiers, who were clearly well-trained and had simple and clear swordsmanship, and ran to the point.
Finally, the Great Food Soldiers organized a military formation to confront the slave soldiers who also formed a military formation, and pressed the slave soldiers to the city gate by relying on the large number of people.
But the two sides are scuffling, and there is still a chance to close the door for a while.
The opportunity was fleeting, and the cavalry outside the city rushed straight to the gate of the city without resistance...... The Zhangfu slave soldiers immediately dragged the cart aside and made way for it.
Cavalry stormed the city!
The sharp-eyed cannibal found that Zhang Liangcai and his slave soldiers had a white towel tied to their right arm, and the rushing cavalry ignored them, and when they saw that there was no white towel, they cut straight away.
The gates of the important city of Isfahan fell into the hands of the Zhou army, and they did not even fire a single arrow. Squad after team of cavalry roared past Zhang Liangcai's side and rushed towards the city.
When it was done, Zhang Liangcai breathed a long sigh of relief,
