He Ziming pursed his lips and said, "This trip can only succeed and not fail." As long as we can capture the city of Chengdu, the rebels will be in chaos, and the rebellion will be put down in a hurry. If Chengdu City can't be defeated, then the two sides will fall into a stalemate. When the war will end, no one knows. ”

"Here we are." He Ziming stopped his horse and stretched out his hand to the fortified city below the cliff. The battlements of arrows on the wall dozens of feet high were faintly visible.

He Ziming stretched out his hand to wipe his face and said, "Your Majesty said that the general attack will be launched in Zishi, let's rest for a while, and then go down when it gets dark." Now the guard of Chengdu City has been replaced by Li Moran's younger brother Li Molin, who is said to be a hard hand. ”

"What the hell is a bird?" Nameless muttered, "The more you rest, the colder it gets, hurry down, kill it, it's serious to warm up." ”

Xie Chen also said: "What Nameless said is. This body is almost frozen, and we don't know what the situation in this city is, if we can't successfully assassinate Li Molin before the general attack of the army, our army will fall into great passivity, go straight down. ”

He Ziming looked up at the sky, nodded and said, "Okay!" Be careful when you go down, don't be discovered. ”

"Although there are only 30,000 defenders in the city of Chengdu, the city defense is strong, if you want to attack the city head-on, you must pay a heavy price, and it must be protracted, so you can only use a surprise attack. The key to the surprise attack is to find the weakness of Chengdu's city defense. Before leaving, Li Guanqi carefully explained his tactics to He Ziming and the others, "Chengdu has three major weaknesses. The first is that it has never been attacked head-on, so the defenders will be superstitious about the power of the city defense; Second, Emperor Wuzong and I both visited Chengdu in person, and hundreds of thousands of people in the city were relatively loyal to the Daqian Li clan, which was of great help to us in taking over Chengdu; Third. Chengdu's current defender, Li Molin, is Li Moran's younger brother, and has a very high prestige in the Jiannan army, if he can achieve his first achievement, the Chengdu defenders will be defeated without a fight. ”

"It's a tough trip, so be careful!" Li Guanqi said affectionately to the three of them. Alone three people go deep into the dangerous city, if they are discovered. It's hard to imagine how to survive under the pursuit of 30,000 defenders, these three people are his right-hand men, and he doesn't want to lose any of them.

The bad weather really made the defenders of Chengdu City relax their vigilance, and He Ziming and the three of them easily slid down the cliff into the city. In fact, even if the number of guards in the city was not reduced, the chances of the three of them being found were not very high, because the storm easily obscured the sentry's sight and hearing, not to mention that the three of them were all good martial artists.

Li Molin's residence was near the south of the city, and it was raining heavily at this time. It was late autumn again, so there was a charcoal fire in the room, which was burning majestically, and the house was as warm as spring. But Li Molin's heart felt a chill, when he started with Li Moran, he also thought that the war would end soon, the combined strength of Jiannan and Shannan was more than six times that of the twelve guards of the Beijing Division, and Li Guanqi was a hairy young man. In terms of military talent, he should definitely not be able to compare with his gang of battlefield veterans.

But what I didn't expect was that the Shannan Army had a tenfold advantage over the enemy. It was impossible to break through the Wujiang defense line, and Li Guanqi was able to lead 100,000 elites to fight deep into the hinterland of Jiannan, which is ridiculous when I think about it, it was originally the Jiannan Army as the attacker, but now it is tired of dealing with it on its own territory. And Li Guanqi's military talent stunned them even more, since the outbreak of the war. The troops commanded by the young emperor were repeatedly defeated by fewer victories.

After Li Shixiang died in battle, Li Moran once tried to retaliate frantically, but Li Guanqi caught him rashly and set up ambushes one after another. In some areas, a situation of fighting more and fighting less has been formed, and the combat effectiveness of the Beijing battalion is already stronger than that of the Jiannan Army.

After several confrontations, Li Moran suddenly discovered that his nearly 500,000 troops, excluding the garrisons of various fortresses, his mobile troops had been encroached upon and there were only more than 100,000 left, and the battlefield situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and he had to be forced to take a certain defensive position, and for his base camp Chengdu, he paid more attention to it, and transferred his younger brother, Li Molin, who was also the most capable of fighting in the Jiannan Army, back to Chengdu to guard.

Li Molin is not only strong in force, but also very strategic, so he was rarely convinced before, but now he is faintly afraid of Li Guanqi. The young emperor was a genius who used his troops like a god, and his intrigues were endless, and he was subject to control at every turn.

It was raining heavily today, and it was by no means a good time to attack the city, but Li Molin faintly felt that something was about to happen, and he felt in a trance that as soon as he opened the door, the streets outside would be full of cadres.

Li Molin was pacing in the room and thinking nonsense, but there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

"Is he really going to choose this time to attack the city?" Li Molin's heart palpitated, and he asked in a deep voice, "What's the noise?" ”

"Back to the general!" A guard hurriedly pushed the door in and said, "Just now someone from the north of the city reported that two sentries are missing!" ”

"The Sentinel is missing?" Li Molin's heart moved, "Prepare the horse, I'll take a look!" ”

Soon, Li Molin finished tidying up, put on his robes, and rushed to Beicheng with twenty cavalry and three Beicheng garrisons who came to report.

The heavy rain was still falling, and there was not a single figure on the street, and under the rain curtain, it was impossible to see the figure from ten meters away.

From Li Molin's residence to the north of the city, you have to pass through a slum, which is the most chaotic place in Chengdu, where people die almost every day, and the law enforcers and local residents in the city are accustomed to death, even if hundreds of people beat each other on the street, it is difficult to find a few bystanders.

The three horses in front of him gradually moved away and disappeared into the rain curtain, Li Molin frowned, whipped his whip a few times, and rushed up.

The three horses that had disappeared just now reappeared, but the knights on the horses were already lying on the ground.

"Phew!" Li Molin stopped his mount steeply and looked around, but his eyes were only white, and he couldn't see anything clearly, and in his ears, except for the sound of "whooshing" rain, it was difficult to hear any other sound.

"Get off the horse and take a look, are you still alive?" Li Molin gave an order to the knight behind him.

At that moment, six knights dismounted and ran quickly towards the lying man on the ground, but when they ran three or four meters away from the three lying on the ground, they suddenly let out a terrible cry at the same time, and then their bodies fell down one by one as if they had been slashed by an invisible knife, and the flying blood was only a few points of scarlet in the majestic rain, and they were quickly wiped clean by the impact, and only six piles of miserable white flesh were left on the ground.
