Chapter 217 The inside should be combined with the outside

Situ Hao returned to the tent and sat down sullenly, followed by Yuanhang and Fu Yashi, and sat down silently.

"Yashi, is there a good way to break this city?" After the silence, Situ Hao asked questions first and looked at Fu Yashi.

Fu Yashi looked back at Situ Hao, shook his head lightly and said, "Marshal, the enemy army is stubborn and refuses to fight, I have nothing to do." ”

Situ Hao looked at Yuanhang again, Yuanhang looked sad and shook his head helplessly.

"Alas!" Situ Hao sighed and said, "Since there is no good plan, I have to attack." The order went down, and the siege continued in the afternoon. ”

Du Wen walked to the south gate and saw that the streets in the city were full of merchant soldiers, standing or sitting, all resting, and should be ready to replenish the troops on the city tower at any time.

Bypassing these soldiers, Du Wen went up to the city wall and walked to the side with a back. Away from the city tower, looking for a place with few soldiers, Du Wen lay on the wall and looked down.

There are countless corpses of Liang Jun lying under the city, which shows that the battle was tragic in the morning, and Du Wen's heart was blocked.

Looking back at the city tower, there are still a lot of rolling logs prepared by the merchant army to defend the city, neatly placed on the wall, it seems that if the city is broken, the Liang army will have to pay a lot of price.

"The Liang army is attacking the city." The alarm bell sounded in the city, and the soldiers who were resting on the ground immediately got up, returned to their posts, and waited for them.

Du Wen looked around, the soldiers and horses of the Liang army came slowly, and after they were in order, they heard the sound of war drums and rushed up to the city again.

Du Wen pretended to defend the city, looking around for an opportunity to see if he could put the Liang army in the city. After only looking at it for a while, he denied his thoughts, although he was far away from the south gate, there were still many soldiers guarding here, although there was no Liang army attacking the city from here, the soldiers did not leave, and they were ready to fight.

Du Wen looked to the left, in the southeast corner of the city wall, there were not many soldiers, but more than ten people were lying on the battlements and watching. With an idea, he had a plan in his heart, turned around and grabbed a quiver and ran towards the city.

When she went down to the city, Du Wen chose an alley where no one was there, and when she saw a family, she stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Who?" An old man's voice came from inside the door, looking a little nervous.

Du Wen turned around and saw that there was no one, and said softly: "Uncle open the door, I'll find some water to drink." ”

It took a half-ring inside to crack the door, and an old man showed half of his face and looked out. Du Wen clenched her fists and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll go into the house and drink some water and leave." ”

The old man saw that Du Wen was polite and not like a bad person, opened the door and looked around, dodged to make way for Du Wen, Du Wen hurriedly entered the house, and the old man quickly closed the door.

"It's chaotic outside, don't you dare to open the door randomly." The old man muttered and went to fetch water for Du Wen.

"Can the old man write and ink at home?" Du Wen looked inside the room and asked.

"Yes, in the inner room." The old man came back with water and pointed to the inner room.

Du Wen took the water and drank it, got up and went to the back room to find pen and ink, thought for a while, lifted off his military uniform, tore a strip of cloth from the inside, divided it into two, and after writing on it, he tied it tightly to two arrows.

"Thank you, uncle, close the door quickly." Du Wen thanked the old man, and ran to the south gate after going out with two arrows.

Coming up to the city, the merchant army in the city kept throwing rolling logs downward, and there were archers who continuously released arrows in the back. Du Wen glanced around, found a bow, and seeing that no one paid attention to him, he twisted the arrow on the ground, put it on the bow and shot it down the city.

Subsequently, a second headless arrow tied with strips of cloth was sent out by Du Wen*, this one impartially and directly in the chest of a Liang soldier.

The Liang army was rushing forward, and suddenly saw an arrow coming towards him, and screamed in fright, and it was too late to dodge, the arrow hit the chest impartially, and the soldier sat on the ground.

Sitting on the ground, the soldier felt a pain in his chest, looked down and saw that he was not injured, and then saw that the arrows on the ground had no arrows, and there was a strip of cloth tied to them, and he felt strange. He looked up at the city, picked up the arrows on the ground and ran back.

Gu Xin was supervising the formation in front of the formation, and when he saw a soldier running backwards, he slashed his big knife and shouted: "Those who retreat are killed!" ”

"General, I have a military briefing." The soldier fell to his knees in fright, raised his arrow above his head, and shouted in unison.

Gu Xin looked down and asked, "What's the military situation?" ”

"Report to the general, a headless arrow was shot in the city, and there was a strip of cloth on it, and the subordinates did not dare to slack off, so they came to tell you."

Gu Xin asked the soldier to hand over the arrow, looked at the arrow, and turned the horse to run back.

Situ Hao was watching the soldiers attack the city from behind, Gu Xin came over with a horse, handed over the arrow, and said, "Marshal, this arrow is shot from the city." ”

Situ Hao took the arrow, took off the strip of cloth, opened it and looked at it, looked puzzled, and handed the strip of cloth to Yuanhang.

The voyage took it, and saw that the cloth strip was written: Midnight, southeast corner. Yuanhang's eyes lit up after seeing it, and he looked up and said to Situ Hao: "Marshal, it's Wen'er's handwriting, she is in the city." ”

Situ Hao sighed and asked, "Is it Du Wen?" ”

"Yes, she was plundered by the enemy, and she was in the city." Yuanhang replied eagerly.

"How did he get to the city?" Situ Hao asked strangely.

Yuanhang shook his head and replied, "I don't know about this, but the handwriting will never be wrong." ”

Situ Hao was still pondering, and Yuanhang said: "Marshal, Xu Shiwen'er can help us secretly, it is better to attack the city for the time being, and then discuss it at night." ”

"It's fine." Situ Hao thought about it for a while, then ordered the troops to be collected and returned to the camp.

Chi Fei saw Liang Jun retreating in the city, his face showed a smug look, and he turned sideways and said to Korean: "Liang Jun is just like this, if you want to break through my city, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the sky." ”

"The marshal must not be careless, and he needs to be cautious and vigilant." Han Yu looked at the retreating Liang Jun and told Chi Fei.

"Well, let the soldiers rest and come back in the evening." Chi Fei nodded in response.

Back in the camp, Situ Hao and the others discussed carefully in the tent.

Yuanhang clutched the strip of cloth, and his heart was very excited. With Wen'er's news, she is still alive and has escaped the control of the enemy army, and will soon be able to meet.

"Yuanhang, does Wen'er mean that we want to attack the city at midnight?" Situ Hao asked Xiang Yuanhang.

Yuanhang thought for a moment and replied: "She said that in the southeast corner, we should send people here, as for whether it is to attack the city or whether she wants to get out here, I don't know." ”

"Then we need to deploy troops here?"

"This ......" Yuanhang didn't know what Du Wen meant, and it was difficult to answer for a while.

"It's better than that." Fu Yashi said: "Send some soldiers with strong martial arts to investigate first, and wait for the exact news to come, and then make a decision." ”

"Well, that's the safest thing to do." Yuanhang responded, and then said: "Then I sent Dao Zi and Wuying to lead people to explore it." ”

"It's okay, let the three armies be ready to attack the city at any time." Situ Hao listened to the opinions of the two of them and arranged them down.

sailed out of the tent, found Dao Zi and Wuying, and told them carefully, let them choose some clever and good martial arts soldiers to accompany them. The two of them agreed and went back to prepare.

At midnight, there was silence on the wall of Yanshun Mansion, and the soldiers defending the city were tired for a day, and they were a little sleepy, and some had fallen asleep leaning against the battlements.

Du Wen slowly moved to the southeast corner of the city wall, where there were not many soldiers, no more than ten in total, most of them were still asleep, and only two soldiers were standing guard.

"Who?" When the two soldiers saw Du Wen coming, they asked loudly.

"It's okay, my own people." Du Wen pinched her throat and shouted, walked over and said, "You guys are also tired for a long time, change to rest, I'll guard." ”

The two soldiers saw Du Wen by the light of the torches, and they didn't know each other, but they didn't suspect it, they just thought they were mobile soldiers. One of the soldiers yawned and said, "I wasn't sleepy, but I was tired when you said it." He stretched his waist and said, "Since you are here, I will rest for a while, thank you." ”

"You're welcome." Du Wen smiled and said to another soldier: "You can go too, we are in the corner, even if the enemy army comes to attack the city, it will not be here." ”

"Forget it, I'd better stick to it, so as not to be scolded." The soldier did not answer, and turned to continue staring at the city.

Du Wen looked up, it should be almost midnight, since you don't leave, no wonder me.

Looking back, except for the two of them, the rest of them fell asleep against the other side of the wall. Du Wen lifted her right leg, pulled the dagger out of her boot, and leaned in.

The soldier was looking down, when he suddenly felt a chill behind him, and when he turned back, he felt his eyelids sink and slid down against the battlement.

Du Wen leaned forward against him, turning him upside down so that he could climb on the battlement, and there was no flaw in the back.

Turning back to look at the sleeping soldiers, Du Wen took out a rope from her arms, tied one end to the battlement, and threw the other end out of the city.

Shadowless and Dao Zi followed the orders of the voyage, leading ten sturdy soldiers to lurk under the city wall. Wuying's eyes were sharp, and when he saw that he had dropped a rope in the city, he stepped forward and squeezed it hard, and quickly tied it very strongly, turned around and said to Dao Zi: "I'll go up first, if there is no accident, shake the rope and you can go up again." ”

Dao Zi nodded and whispered, "Be careful." ”

Shadowless glanced upward, grabbed the rope with both hands, and climbed up with a quick twist.

In a moment's effort, Shadowless went up to the wall, grabbed the rope with one hand, climbed the wall with the other, and stretched out his head to look in.

"No shadow." Du Wen saw that it was Wuying who came up, and called quietly.

Wuying heard Du Wen's voice, turned over the wall with a little force, and stuck to the wall to call the fifth young grandmother.

Du Wen pointed to the sleeping soldiers on the other side, nodded without a shadow, and shook the rope with his hand. Dao Zi saw it below and began to climb.

After the shadowless waited for the sword purple to come up, the two of them drew their weapons and rushed towards those soldiers. In a moment's effort, the dozen or so soldiers were silently resolved.

Du Wen pulled the two of them over and whispered for a while, and the two of them nodded again and again. Wuying instructed Dao Zi: "Take care of the fifth young grandmother." ”

Dao Zi nodded yes, turned over without a shadow, and slid down the rope into the city. Dao Zi tied the corpses of the soldiers in the city with ropes and went down to the city, and Wuying and others below took off the uniforms of the soldiers of the merchant army, and the corpses were lined up against the city wall.

The ten Liang soldiers under the city changed into the uniforms of the merchant army, climbed up to the city one after another, and each chose a good position to stand.

Dao Zi and Du Wen stood together, looking at the dark night under the city, hoping that Wuying could come back quickly.

After all ten soldiers went to the city, he ran to the camp in the form of a cat in the dark.

The lights in the camp of the Liang army were bright, and everyone did not sleep, gathering together to wait for their news.

"Shadowless is back." Qin Chao had been waiting outside the tent, and when he saw that he had returned without a shadow, he turned around and entered the account to make a statement. Situ Hao and the others hurriedly stood up from their chairs.

"My lord, it's really the fifth young grandmother." Shadowless ran quickly, and gasped after saying a word. Yuanhang was anxious, stepped forward and pulled Wuying and asked, "Wen'er is fine?" ”

Wuying shook his head, nodded hurriedly, and said: "The fifth young grandmother is fine, put down the rope and pulled Dao Zi and the others up, and ordered me to come back to tell you, please send some elites to enter the city at night, and then raid the east gate, and when the city gate is opened, the army will attack the city from the east gate." ”

"Good!" Situ Hao excitedly slapped the big case and shouted out happily.

Yuanhang was also happy, it was really unexpected to learn that Wen'er was fine, and she was able to cooperate with the outside and help him break through Yanshun Mansion.

"The people will obey." Seeing that time was pressing, Situ Hao hurriedly ordered: "General Sun, immediately select three hundred elites and hand them over to Wuying to lead into the city overnight." The rest of the generals led the headquarters, and the army set up camp overnight and rushed to the east gate of Yanshun Mansion to hide without making any sound, and those who violated the order were beheaded. ”

"Yes." After receiving the order, the generals dispersed, and Sun Ke selected 300 strong soldiers from his headquarters to hand over to Wuying.

"Wait." Yuanhang came out of the tent, pulled Wuying over, and said, "Let Wen'er come back first, so as not to have any more accidents." ”

Wuying nodded, and after saying goodbye to Yuanhang, he led three hundred soldiers to Yanshun Mansion.

Sneaking to the bottom of the city, according to the prior agreement, Wuying learned a few wild cat meows, and there was a rope sliding down the city. Shadowless was carrying a bundle of ropes on his back and climbed up first.

After going to the city, Wuying didn't say much, nodded lightly to Dao Zi, tied the rope on his body and threw it down. Each soldier who came up carried a bundle of ropes on his back, and after a while, twenty ropes were tied to the city wall in the southeast corner, and the soldiers who went up to the city first went down the stairs to the city under the guidance of Dao Zi, and hid in the shadows.

"Fifth young grandmother, the adults let you go back first." Wuying whispered beside Du Wen, leaving a rope for her.

"I'll stay with you to fight the east gate." Du Wen didn't want to leave, turned her head and said.

"No, if you stay, I will divide my forces to protect you." Wuying didn't dare to leave Du Wen, if he really fought, if there was another accident, he really didn't have the face to go back to see the voyage.

Du Wen still insisted on staying, Wuying refused to live or die, and couldn't compete with him, Du Wen had to agree to go first, and after instructing Wuying, Du Wen slid down the rope to the city.

After all the three hundred soldiers came up, Wuying ordered the rope to be untied and thrown down the city, and together with Dao Zi, he quietly approached the east gate with the soldiers.

The sky is getting brighter, and the east is revealing the white of the fish. Wuying and the others had already touched an alley at the east gate, stretched out their heads, and vaguely saw that there were many soldiers under the east gate, estimated to be no less than 200 people.

After turning around and discussing briefly with Dao Zi, Wuying pulled out his knife with a solemn expression, and instructed the soldiers: "This battle is very important, even if the whole army is destroyed, you must open the city gate and enlarge the army into the city, do you understand?" ”

The soldier nodded, took his weapon in his hand, and prepared to charge.

"Kill, ......" Wuying shouted, led three hundred Liang troops to rush out of the alley, and went straight to the east gate of the enemy.
