Chapter 101: The Battle of Shangyongguan (4)
There is still a cool breeze in the winter on the mountain, and in the wind, hundreds of black shadows hide in the bushes and look at the city tower not far away, waiting......
In Shangyong City, more than a dozen figures wearing black clothes and black scarves quickly shuttled between the streets and alleys like raccoon cats, dodging the patrol of more than 20 people, and ran towards the north gate of the city. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
On the north gate of Shangyong City, there are two big red lanterns hanging high, illuminating the city gate that is less than a foot and a few city guards who are almost asleep on the city tower.
More than a dozen people quietly slipped into the barracks and gently pried open the latch of the first door with daggers. In the room, a dozen or so people were lying side by side on bamboo beds with their heads facing outward, their weapons leaning against the side of the door.
The man at the head waved his hand, hit a person behind him, took out a dagger, raised his feet, and walked lightly to the edge of the bamboo bed. I saw him cover the mouth and nose of the first person with one hand, and with the other hand he held a dagger and quickly wiped it at the person's throat, and his movements were crisp and swift. After cutting, quickly start the second one. In less than ten breaths, twelve people went to report to Lord Yama without making a sound.
The other ten people outside also completed their respective hunting tasks and began the hunting in the second barracks. There were eleven barracks in total, and in less than half a column of incense, without any sound, they completed the hunt perfectly. The team leader took the masked face towel and wiped the blood on the dagger, and smiled with satisfaction. Picking up the weapons placed by the wall, he motioned to his brothers to take each of their weapons, and then led them to sneak towards the city gate tower under the cover of night.
Two soldiers at the gate of the city were asleep against the edge of the gate, holding large guns. The two agents approached, slapped them in the neck, knocked them unconscious, and then tied them with ropes, pried open their mouths, stuffed them with cloth, and threw them into an inconspicuous corner next to them.
On the tower of the city gate, the four soldiers could not stop sleeping, leaning against the pass on the city wall, and fell asleep in a daze. The squad leader raised his legs to the upper position, swooped down, jumped over, slashed with a knife, and brushed four knives. The four soldiers had just felt the sudden mountain wind, and before their eyes were fully opened, they had already gone to Lord Yama to report.
After the four soldiers were dealt with, the squad leader took down the lantern hanging high above the city gate and shook it three times from the left and three times from the right to send a signal to the city.
Liao Hua and the others, who were three miles away, saw the signal coming from the city and immediately set off. After a journey of more than three miles, and a stick of incense, Liao Hua and others came to the city. The drawbridge outside the city had been quietly lowered, and the gates had opened a gap for two or three people to enter. They rush in. Led by the squad leader, they came to the barracks where the previous sneak attack had been successful.
In the barracks, the dead bodies had been taken out, and the soldiers' leather armor and equipment were still hanging on the walls. The squad leader escorted the two previously captured live mouths to see Liao Hua.
"Yes, I know how to catch two live mouths!" Liao Hua sat down on a chair in the barracks in the middle, "Take him out and ask later." Take this mouth out and ask him now. ”
Liu Qian once explained to him that when interrogating criminals, it is best not to ask several people together, and asking them separately can distinguish whether there is false information in it. Therefore, he asked his men to take one out.
"Don't be afraid! Just tell the truth, I won't kill you! Liao Hua looked at the prisoner kneeling in front of the case and said, "Let me ask you, how many city guards are there in the city now?" ”
"There are more than 500 city guards, and here are 140 people. There was also a barracks at the gate over there, and there were a hundred and forty men. There were two hundred and eighty guards in the county guard. The captive said.
"When are you going to switch guards with the county guard?" Liao Hua asked.
"Tomorrow! Tomorrow at noon is the day to change the guard. We're the 100th team, and the 300th team came to us at noon to change the defense. When we arrived at the county guard's house, the 400th team went over there to switch guards with the 200th team. "This guy is honest and just said it. As he spoke, he looked at the few people in front of him with his eyes, "What are you guys doing?" ”
Ho! He's going to ask?!
"You don't have to know what we're doing. Just tell us what you know. Liao Hua said. Then he asked the captive a few more things about the patrol and the government officials, and he was taken down. Then, another one was arraigned.
Seeing that what the two said was almost the same, Liao Hua calmed down.
After Liao Hua discussed with the two captains again, they began to head towards the barracks over there......
During this night, Liao Hua and others cleansed the 280 guards in the two barracks where the enemy was guarding the city gate. On the way, he killed two patrols of the enemy. In total, 320 enemies were killed.
As they prepare to infiltrate the county guard's mansion, they are spotted by soldiers who have come out to patrol. Because the third team found that the two patrol flags were not at home. The team leader took people to the barracks of the two teams to check, and found that there was no one. After waiting for about a stick of incense, I haven't seen anyone return. At this time, he felt that something was wrong. Hurriedly woke up several other captains. A few people went out to look at it again, and when they came back, they decided to go out and see if there was anything wrong.
All eight squads came out. Soon they found the inside of the two barracks, and they found them empty. In particular, a sharp-eyed soldier found blood stains remaining on the bamboo bed. They sensed something was wrong. After one of the squad leaders reacted first, they began to run towards the county guard's mansion.
Just when Liao Hua and the others had just come to the county guard's mansion, the eight patrol teams rushed here to meet them. It made the soldiers of these patrols stunned!
Because at this time, Liao incarnated to wear the clothes of a centurion guarding the city, and the soldiers behind him were also wearing the equipment of the city defense army. Liao Hua was shocked at first when he saw these people rushing towards him, but when he saw the equipment he was wearing, he was a lot more relieved. He motioned for the two captives to come over and talk to the patrols. Whisper to the two of them to lure those people over.
While the two captives were talking to those people, Liao Hua arranged for a squad leader to sneak quietly with his soldiers. As he watched the shadows approach the patrols, he shouted, "Kill! After giving the order, he drew the sword in his waist and rushed forward.
The two captives who were still talking, and the captain of the patrol, were bluffed. However, the weapons of Liao Hua and the others did not give them time, and more than 200 people swarmed up and beat the enemy off guard.
Those of these city guards were better armed with guns, and their guns could withstand a few blows in their hands; But these soldiers with Pu knives are miserable! The knife is at the waist, where is the time to draw the knife! More than seventy percent of the people were killed by their opponents without drawing their swords. Those spearmen and swordsmen who drew their knives were caught off guard, and after resisting a few moves, they were also killed one after another.
However, this ruined Liao Hua's plan to raid the county guard. The sound of shouting and fighting here has already reached the ears of the city guards guarding the county guard.
I heard the gate of the county guard house "creak" open. Out of it ran a group of 100 city defenders, led by a centurion.
This guy was far away and saw more than 100 people standing in the dark night, holding knives and guns in their hands. He cried out, "Who is making a noise here?" ”
Liao Hua didn't answer, but whispered to the team leader beside him: "We also killed most of their soldiers defending the city, and it is estimated that only these county guards are left now." The servants could not be summoned for a while. So let us withdraw first to the door, and if they come after us, we will destroy them; If we don't follow, we'll come back and raid the county guard's mansion. ”
The squad leader received the order, and led his soldiers to follow behind Liao Hua and began to retreat.
This centurion really doesn't know what to do, and he chases after people wildly. He didn't even look at the dead people on the ground, he directly stepped past those corpses and chased them down in the direction where Liao Hua and the others retreated.
About half a mile away, there was an alley entrance. Liao Hua looked at the soldiers who were chasing behind, so he signaled his subordinates to set up an ambush at the mouth of the alley.
In less than a while, the kid chased out of the alley with more than a hundred people. Because in the night, he didn't see how many people there were. He just thought that the other party was running hard, and he must be afraid of him. He was full of meritorious service, so he chased him down desperately.
He led the team to the mouth of the alley and took a look, ho! People are gone. Looking around, he was about to shout when he heard someone behind him ask, "Are you looking for us?" ”
He looked back and froze.
Not far behind him, a thin young man dressed in centurion equipment appeared under his torch with a simple knife in his hand.
Who? Liao Huabei.
I saw Liao Huapu swing out the knife violently and shouted "Kill!" Suddenly, the specially trained soldiers of the intelligence battalion lying in ambush around him swooped out of the darkness like ghosts, slashing at their intended targets.
This little centurion looked at the simple knife that was slashing at him in a daze, and he didn't even dodge. Liao Hua chopped off this person's head with a single sword. Blood spurted out of the fallen body like a fountain.
Another raid. The soldiers were killed again, but the two previous captives were not found.
Who knows if those two captives will report to the county guard? Will Liao Hua go to raid the county guard this time? Once these two captives went to inform the generals of the rebellious army guarding the city, would Liao Hua and the others be able to deal with it? Did the general lead the rest of the soldiers to encircle and suppress Liaohua? With so many uncertainties, Liao Hua had to make a quick decision......
