Chapter Seventy-Six: Catching Turtles in the Urn
At night, the clouds were plentiful and dark, and there was no moon or stars.
"Whoa!"
Only the wind was blowing, whistling by, as if crying.
In the camp of the Han army, the wind blows the flags and flies, and the camp tent is whistling. The boss has an order, tonight night attack. However, Lu Zhi's army was experienced in a hundred battles, and the soldiers were brave and courageous, and they did not riot because of this, but fell asleep.
Almost no one was awake.
The tent of the commander of the Chinese army is brightly lit.
Zheng Tai was dressed in a black robe and wore a virtuous crown on his head, both expensive and rich, and he couldn't release the scroll in his hand, and read it at night.
Zheng Tai's eyes were staring at the bamboo slip in his hand, but his heart had already flown to the city, to Luoyang, and to the eternal deeds.
His trembling hands betrayed his excitement.
"Someone!" Finally, he couldn't help it, Zheng Tai still took the bamboo slip and shouted outward.
"General." The camp guard walked in.
"What time is it?" Jung Tae asked.
"Four quarters!" The soldier said.
"When you are a child, when you are ugly, when you are ugly, when you are young, when you are young. At dawn and four o'clock, it is the most sleepy time for people to attack. Zheng Tai secretly thought about it in his heart, and then waved his hand: "Go down." ”
"No."
The soldier departed as promised.
Jung Tae continued to wait, but he was even more restless. From time to time, he paced back and forth, or thought about the Luoyang court, or thought about the Luoyang family, or recalled his life.
I Zheng Tai, the word Gongye, Henan Kaifeng people. Less well-known, at the age of 30, famous at home. A few months ago, he was recruited for the general and became the head of Luoyang as an auxiliary minister.
Although he became famous a little late, he was in his prime after all.
As the so-called avenue is in me, I am a late bloomer.
Now, I've finally seized this opportunity.
Success, recorded in the book deed, left in the annals of history.
Hurry too!
Zheng Tai paced back and forth from time to time, sat cross-legged from time to time, and lived like a year. But time also passed slowly.
Sub-hour!
Ugly time!
Zheng Tai called the soldiers ten times, asked the time ten times, and finally reached the sixth quarter of the ugly hour.
"Hu Wu Kuang, the generals and other generals, captains, and soldiers are ordered to assemble in the camp." Zheng Tai clenched his fists and said excitedly.
"No."
The soldier agreed with a bang and went down to give the order.
As a result, the quiet Han camp suddenly set off waves. One by one, the soldiers got up from their beds, put on their armor in the dark, took their spears and bows, and carried their siege equipment and lined them up in their respective camps.
Each of them will be colonel, put on armor and mount, waiting for orders.
Time passed quickly, and it was time to arrive.
Wu Kuang also gathered the soldiers and horses of the battalion, got up and entered the big tent of the Chinese army, and at the same time, the news of the completion of the assembly of the generals and colonels of each battalion was also merged into the big tent of the Chinese army.
In the marshal tent of the Chinese army, Zheng Tai sat on the handsome seat with a golden sword, he was not ugly, and even a little majestic, and he put on armor, which added to his majesty.
There is a momentary handsome atmosphere.
"Can I send troops?"
Zheng Tai's eyes were bright and he asked Wu Kuangdao.
"Wait another quarter of an hour. Gather outside the camp at three o'clock, reach the city gate at four o'clock, and attack the city not too late. Wu Kuang said.
Although Zheng Tai was anxious to make meritorious contributions, he was not short of a quarter of an hour. Holding the blood in my heart, constipation waits generally.
…………………….
Guangzong City, in the palace of the general of Tiangong, the lights are bright, as if it is daytime.
Zhang Jiao was dressed in armor and knelt on the top. Zheng Tai was heartfelt, and Zhang Jiao's mood was not very calm.
"I'm in my mid-forties this year. Thirty and stand, forty is not confused, and fifty knows the destiny of heaven. Time was running out, but after the army was raised, the battle was lost one after another. But if you can swallow this Han army. ”
Zhang Jiao's eyes suddenly became hot, as if the sun was in the middle of the sky, unstoppable.
"Big brother!"
Zhang Liang walked in from outside, also wearing armor, preparing for battle, while walking, the iron armor clanged, and the killing atmosphere filled the sky.
"Can it be arranged?" Zhang Jiao suddenly stood up and asked.
"The defense of the city gate is empty, and it will be broken when it is stabbed. The houses on both sides of the street have all been requisitioned. A large number of archers are arranged, and elite armor soldiers stand in front of them. No matter who comes, make sure to catch turtles in an urn. ”
Zhang Liang's face flashed with pride, and he laughed.
"Good!" Zhang Jiao stood up, and then said excitedly: "You personally supervise the ironclad army and stop in front to ensure that the Han army will not jump over the wall and break into the city." ”
After a pause, Zhang Jiao said again: "Tell the disciples separately." Tonight, I personally watched the battle, and those who used their lives could follow me to achieve the way of heaven, be immortal, and enjoy eternal life. ”
"No."
Zhang Liang agreed, turned around and left.
"Success or failure is here." Zhang Jiao worked hard, and then clicked left and right. Climb the tall buildings and watch the success or failure.
……………………
Three quarters in the morning.
The Han army has already moved. Zheng Tai, Wu Kuang, Zongyuan and other generals, all commanders and horses, assembled outside the camp. Eleven flags, hunting sounds, majestic and incomparable.
"Sect member, you are in front of the soldiers. Responsible for ascending the city first. ”
"Cheng Gao, you assist the sect member."
"Wu Kuang, you and I are together, in the third, and the rest of the generals are in the rear, following in."
Zheng Tai straddled the war horse and commanded.
"No."
The generals promised.
"Sweep away the yellow turbans, fight here, kill!" After the deployment was completed, Zheng Tai pulled out the long sword at his waist, pointed forward, smiled suddenly, and shouted.
"No."
The soldier promised, and then killed the city.
Hanying is not far from Guangzong City, but it is only a mile. At about four o'clock, the Han army arrived outside the city of Guangzong. At this moment, the city is guarded, and you can peek into one or two.
At a glance, there are few patrol soldiers.
Zheng Tai was overjoyed and shouted: "Siege." ”
"Kill!"
As a result, the sect members and Chen Gao no longer hid their tracks, and each led the soldiers to carry ladders and shouted to kill.
In the silent night, the sudden shouting of killing was like a frightened bow.
The Yellow Turban soldiers in the city were stunned.
"Enemy attack!"
"The Han army has attacked at night!"
A terrible roar suddenly sounded. Like a flying arrow, it slashed through the sky.
"Archery!"
"Let's go!"
Someone pulls a bow and shoots an arrow, the bowstring vibrates, and the arrow flies out. Someone walked away, revealing his defeat.
"Whoosh!"
"Ahh
Hit by the rain of arrows, many Han soldiers screamed and fell in a pool of blood. At this moment, an arrow flew towards the sect member, and the sect member subconsciously waved his sword to resist.
"Ding!"
The arrow was picked off, but the sect member was already shocked into a cold sweat.
After a cold sweat, doubts appeared in my heart.
"Although there is resistance, it seems to be somewhat weak. Is the yellow turban really vulnerable? Doubts floated, but they were suppressed by the sect members. Because the arrow has to be fired.
Arrows rained down, whistling from the left and right of the sect members, nailing to the ground. From time to time, the sect members swung their swords to resist, braving arrows and braving arrows, and wantonly pressed down on the front.
"Kill!"
The lord will be majestic, and the courage of the soldiers will increase sharply. They also braved the arrows and rushed forward. Soon, the army of the sect members was already approaching the city walls.
"Set up a ladder and enter the city!"
The sect member waved his arms and shouted.
"Kill."
The soldier shouted and put the long ladder on the city, then abandoned his spear, used his hands and feet together, and bit the short knife in his mouth, and climbed the wall with great agility.
Although there was weak resistance, the march went exceptionally well. Soon, a small number of soldiers climbed the city wall and met the Yellow Turban soldiers in the city.
The Han army is invigorated!
