Chapter 1027: Night Attack on the North City

On the city wall, Liang Shi was surrounded by more than a dozen generals, looking gloomily at the Sui army camp a few miles away, he had been watching for a quarter of an hour, and no one knew what their king was thinking?

Liang Shidu was actually recalling the encounter many years ago, he pretended to be a black horse thief to attack the caravan led by Zhang Xuan, if they were more decisive at that time, Zhang Xuan would have died in their hands, and there would be no today's situation.

For the first time, Liang Shidu felt a kind of karmic reincarnation, and he still remembered that when he escaped from being injured, Zhang Xuan shouted to him, 'You will die at my hands sooner or later!' ’

A chill flowed down his neck and back, and Liang Shi felt a tremor in his thighs, could it be that sentence to be fulfilled? He held on to the wall, trembling slightly.

The generals all discovered the abnormality of the lord, the lord seemed to be trembling, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other, at this time, Liang Shidu's cousin Liang Luoren asked in a low voice: "Big brother, are you okay?" ”

Liang Shidu immediately stabilized his mind, nodded and said, "I'm fine!" ”

He didn't want his subordinates to see through his thoughts, so he turned around and walked towards the city, leaving a sentence, "You arrange your own defense, don't follow me!" ”

Everyone shook their heads and dispersed, at this time, the general Li Zhengbao glanced at another general, Feng Duan, and the two walked towards the city one after the other, and walked directly into a wine shop not far away.

In a private room on the second floor, Li Zhengbao filled Feng with a glass of wine, and said worriedly: "You should have also seen it, the king was trembling just now, is he very scared?" ”

Feng Duan drank all the wine in the cup, and snorted coldly: "Of course he is afraid, seeing that the time of death is coming, who is not afraid?" ”

"Brother Xian, think we really can't hold it this time?"

"Brother thinks we can hold on?"

Li Zhengbao sighed, "There are only 5,000 people who can really fight, and the rest are rabble, and there are more than enough successes and failures, and the Sui army seems to have 50,000 troops, or Zhang Xuan personally led the army to attack, it seems that this time it really can't be held." ”

"Does that brother have any plans?"

Li Zhengbao gritted his teeth and said: "If we don't do anything, we simply surrender the city, and we can still get the wealth of the rest of our lives!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I just listened to 'Bang!' With a bang, the door was kicked open, and the two jumped up in shock, and suddenly turned pale with fright, only to see Liang Shidu standing at the door with a sword in his hand, looking at them coldly.

"I've already arranged for you for the rest of your life."

Liang Shidu waved his sword, "Grab it for me!" ”

More than a dozen guards swarmed in, Li Zhengbao and Feng Duan roared and drew their swords to resist, but the guards were all strong in martial arts and quickly pressed them to the ground.

Liang Shidu stepped forward, stared at the two of them viciously and said, "I treat you well, you actually betrayed me!" ”

"King, we just complained, we didn't dare to really betray, for the sake of us who have followed us for more than ten years, spare our lives!" The two begged for mercy.

Liang Shidu turned back to his cousin Liang Luoren and looked at him, "You found out that the two of them have different intentions, what do you say?" ”

Liang Luoren said coldly: "It's easy to tie up a tiger, it's already this time, does my brother still want to talk about the kindness of a woman?" ”

Liang Shidu suddenly came to his senses, gritted his teeth and said to the two: "Just use your heads to warn the three armies!" ”

After speaking, he pierced the chests of the two of them with a sword, and Master Liang ordered his subordinates: "Hang their heads on the head of the city to show the public, and those who dare to betray me will be killed!" ”

Li Zhengbao and Feng Duan are both Liang Shidu's henchmen and generals, and their prestige in the army is quite high, Liang Shidu showed the heads of the two of them to the public, originally to warn the three armies, but the effect backfired, but it seriously dampened the morale of the three armies, and the soldiers talked about it, and even Li and Feng The two generals wanted to betray the king, indicating that Lingwu County was really hopeless.

The morale of the army is fluctuating, the hearts of the people are unstable, the soldiers gather in twos and threes to discuss their future, and many people secretly decide that as long as the situation is not good, they will flee immediately.

..........

On the night of the third day, the moon was dark and the wind was high, the clouds were thick, and it was pitch black outside the city, and the soldiers guarding the city could not see anything, and thousands of soldiers at the head of the city had no intention of being on duty, so they gathered together to chat and drink.

Around midnight, dozens of black shadows appeared on the moat outside the north city, the moat was three zhang wide, and the suspension bridge was only one zhang and five feet long, so half of the stone bridge was built in the river, and the suspension bridge was put down and fell on the stone bridge, and the city could pass out of the city.

However, five days ago, Huile County was closed down, the drawbridge was raised, no one was allowed to enter or exit, five hundred soldiers were deployed at the head of the city, and the Liang division issued a strict order, once there was wind and grass outside, as long as someone appeared, the defenders of the city head must immediately shoot arrows.

But dozens of black shadows moved very quickly and quietly, the soldiers at the head of the city did not notice them, they went into the water silently, swam across the moat, and stood close to the city gate, and the two soldiers gently jumped up, like apes, climbing the drawbridge, their movements were very agile and light.

The two climbed to the head of the bridge, and found that they were indeed pulling the drawbridge with hemp rope, and they nodded to the black-clothed soldiers by the city gate,

The soldiers worked together, smeared the high slave fire oil on the city gate, and poured a large amount of fire oil into the shallow pit under the city gate, dozens of soldiers jumped into the water, at this time, the two Sui soldiers on the suspension bridge did not need to ignite the fire, their sharp war knives waved, and at the same time cut the hemp rope that pulled the suspension bridge, the suspension bridge fell with a bang, and the two also jumped into the moat.

The soldiers at the head of the city heard the movement and probed out, and at this time, two rockets were fired from the opposite bank, hitting the city gate, and the city gate 'Boom! The ground burst into flames.

"The Sui army is attacking the city! The Sui army is attacking the city! ”

The soldiers at the head of the city shouted in terror.

The soldiers at the head of the city looked down one after another, only to see that the fire below was amazing, the entire gate was engulfed in flames, and the soldiers were so frightened that their legs were weak, and they involuntarily retreated backwards.

At this time, a lieutenant rushed over and scolded: "Don't ring the alarm bell yet!" ”

The soldiers woke up from a dream, and one of the soldiers rang the bronze bell on the edge of the tower, 'Dang! While! While! Alarm bells are ringing.

At this time, three thousand siege Sui soldiers rushed to the moat with a huge shield on their backs, this giant shield is also called a turtle shield, as the name suggests, it covers the back of the soldiers like a turtle shell, although it is relatively heavy, but it can defend against the bow and arrow shot by the head of the city, but this turtle shield can not withstand the heavy blow of the rolling wood and stone.

There is a five-zhang long battering ram in the turtle shield group, which is made of a century-old jujube tree and weighs thousands of catties.

In addition, the soldiers of the Sui army also prepared several iron chains more than ten zhang long, which was the siege experience of the Sui army, and these items were generally used.

The fire had been slightly smaller, the gates had been charred to the ground, hanging on the walls and crumbling, and thousands of enemy troops had gathered at the top of the city, shooting arrows indiscriminately outside the city.

At this time, 10,000 Sui army archers were already in place, and they released arrows to the city head together, and the arrows shot towards the city head like a storm, quickly suppressing the defenders on the city head, and the long-awaited turtle shield army began to attack, and one hundred and fifty soldiers carried huge shields on their backs, carrying siege rams, and rushed to the drawbridge neatly and rushed towards the city gate.

'Boom! With a loud bang, the battering ram slammed into the city gate, and the burnt wood city gate fell one after another, revealing a black city hole, which was full of boulders, which was expected by the Sui soldiers, and immediately Sui soldiers rushed in and chained a boulder.

"Pull back!" The Sui soldiers in the cave shouted loudly.

.........

Liang Shidu drank a few more glasses today, although he was not drunk, but he was also very drunk, although his own soldiers woke him up from his deep sleep, he still sat in the room and was not fully awake.

At this time, Liang Luoren hurried over with a large group of soldiers, and shouted in a hurry: "The Sui army is about to enter the city, why hasn't the king come out yet?" ”

Several guards said helplessly: "The king has drunk too much, we have washed his face, but he is not sober yet." ”

"Did you splash it with water?"

The guards looked at each other, who would dare to do this?

Liang Luoren knew that they hadn't done anything, so he was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Go get a bucket of well water!" ”

The guards also knew that the situation was critical, and hurriedly ran to fetch well water, and several guards helped Liang Shi to the courtyard, and Liang Luoren rushed forward and said urgently: "Big brother, the Sui army is attacking the north city gate, and it is about to be breached." ”

Liang Shidu waved his hand in pain, "I know, let me recover, I have a terrible headache." ”

At this time, the two soldiers brought a bucket of well water, Liang Luoren raised the bucket and poured it on Liang Shidu's head, Liang Shidu was full of excitement, the wine disappeared, he was about to scold, and there was a shout of killing in the distance.

Liang Shi was stunned for a moment, "Has the Sui army attacked the city?" ”

"Big brother, go and take a look! The north gate is almost untenable. ”

Liang Shidu turned around and scolded the guards for not waking him up earlier, he turned over and ran out in a hurry.

The streets were already in chaos, full of fleeing soldiers, soldiers threw away their armor and fled home, these soldiers were originally forcibly conscripted, no one was really willing to die for Liang Shidu, and when the situation was critical, the soldiers collapsed. (To be continued.) )
