Chapter 696: Li Mi is so good

"Whew!"

The tiger prison was closed, and a signal arrow rose into the night sky with a loud sound, accompanied by a loud sound of beeping, and the signal arrow also carried a fiery red tail flame, which was unusually bright and conspicuous.

Two miles in front of the west pass of the Tiger Prison Pass, Chen Kefu, who had been looking at the direction of the Tiger Prison Pass, showed joy on his face, waited for a while, and saw that only one signal arrow was launched in the pass, and finally couldn't help but clench his fist and wave it.

A signal arrow means that Huang Junhan has won the gate.

"Chen Lei, immediately upload the king's military order, and the whole army will enter the customs immediately. After entering the customs, according to the original battle plan, first seize the gates, followed by the warehouses and barracks, and finally control all the horses in the city, go quickly! ”

"Your Highness, although the signal arrow was raised in Guanzhong, Huang Junhan did not have actual military power in Guanzhong, and the soldiers and horses in the Tiger Prison were all under the control of Niu Jinda and other five Li Mi henchmen. Although the signal arrow was raised in the pass, the last general did not see the sound of fighting and killing and fire in the pass, and this matter needs to be cautious. It is better to let the last general lead 500 people into the pass first, if Huang Junhan robs the city, then His Royal Highness will lead a large army into the pass. If things change, the general can also withdraw immediately with his subordinates, so that the whole army will not be lost. Qin Qiong put forward a policy of old success.

Although they are all expecting Huang Junhan to open the gate, but Huang Junhan only has more than 100 personal soldiers in his hands, it is not easy to take the gate, and there is no movement at the gate at the moment, which is really a little suspicious. In case Huang Junhan failed to get up, he was controlled by Niu Jinda and others, using their agreement with Huang Junhan to lure them into the city, and then ambush them, which would be troublesome.

Feng Wan nodded on the side, "Your Highness, General Qin's proposal is a stable proposal. As it should be. ‘

"Okay, Shubao will take five hundred cavalry to enter the customs first. As soon as I found out that the situation was wrong. Withdraw immediately, and the king will then answer! ”

"Yes!" Uncle Qin, who was covered in armor, returned to the headquarters on the BMW and approached Guancheng with five hundred light horses.

Outside the city, the tiger prison is dusty. People are screaming and seething.

Inside the city. Quiet and calm, although there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, they are silent.

In the dark. Qin Shubao was dressed in golden willow leaf bamboo armor. Holding a tiger head chisel gold gun, he stepped down and rode a thousand-mile horse sent by Chen Kefu, and there were two tile-faced gold sticks hanging next to the saddle. The two flag-holding officers behind him each have a big flag in their hands, one is the Marquis of the Protector and the Tiger General Qin, and the other is the Zhuguo and Hebei Pioneer Officer Qin.

Suddenly thunder refutes thousands of miles of famous horses, and the sound is like a tiger and a leopard. You can travel thousands of miles a day. At this time, the battlefield galloped up, like the wind galloping. Five hundred cavalry followed. It was the light cavalry battalion and thunder battalion under the command of Qin Qiong. This battalion of 500 light cavalry is an elite veteran of Hebei, Chen Kefu specially awarded the battalion number Thunder, the elite of the real elite, has always been under the command of Qin Qiong.

Faced with the danger that might lurk in the silent city, not a single soldier was afraid. On the battlefield, Qin Qiong's battle banner was where their cavalry attacked, and they did not hesitate, although they were not afraid of death.

Just when the Thunder Camp was only more than two hundred steps away from the moat in front of the pass, the torches suddenly lit up above the originally silent pass. Then there was a burst of shouts, and the suspended bridge that was hoisted high finally landed slowly down in the sound of a squeaky winch. The originally closed iron-clad city gate finally opened to both sides in a series of harsh sounds.

On the high Guancheng Tower, under the light of the fire, Huang Junhan looked at Niu Jinda and the five people with a smile on his face, "You won't regret your choice today, congratulations, you have found a real backer!" ”

Niu Jinda and the five people had a smile on their faces, but the smile was very reluctant, although Huang Junhan was full of smiles, but no matter who stood behind him dozens of strong guards with bright swords, they couldn't do it really easily. …,

They still have great doubts about Huang Junhan's words. And Kaecheng took refuge in Hebei, and there are still many concerns. However, there are only two paths in front of them. Either loyal to Li Mi and was cut by Huang Junhan with a knife. Either surrender to Huang Junhan and surrender to Chen Kefu. Although the prospect of defecting to Hebei is unknown, it is better than being in a different place immediately.

The biggest difference between the generals who were born in the cottage bandits and those of the generals of the imperial court is that the generals of the official army often take care of the duties and duties of the generals such as loyalty and righteousness, but for Niu Jinda and others, it is a life for Li Mi, and it is also a life for Chen Kefu, and it is not a sale for anyone. As long as you can get mixed up, why bother hugging Li Mi's thigh and not letting go.

Niu Jinda five people fell, and the tiger prison was basically self-defeating.

After the surrender, in order to show their determination, Niu Jinda and the five people immediately issued an order, so that their subordinate teams and officers immediately rushed to Huang Junhan's general's mansion to discuss matters. After all the officers arrived, Niu Jinda immediately claimed that Li Mi had committed many crimes, and then indicated that he had taken refuge in Hebei.

All the officers and soldiers, who hesitated a little, were immediately slaughtered by them. Most of the rest of the people were elite warriors selected by Li Mi from various rebel armies. However, in the face of life and death, no one is loyal to Li Mi to death. After killing a few people, all the rest agreed to follow and take refuge in Hebei.

Niu Jinda, who was standing on the Guan Tower, looked at the light cavalry flying under the city, and his heart was sudden. The big characters flying high on the other party's banner made him understand that it was indeed the Hebei Army outside the city. Looking into the distance, there are soldiers who are like a fire dragon, although it doesn't seem to be the 50,000 army that Huang Junhan said, but there are more than 10,000 people.

Although he didn't want to believe that Chen Kefu would appear here, the appearance of the Hebei Army had already made Niu Jinda and others breathe a sigh of relief. Since they had defected to Hebei, he already hoped that the more Hebei troops came, the better. He didn't want Huang Junhan to lie to him, then when Li Mi's army arrived, they would be truly finished. After so many years in the Central Plains, these five people have long understood a truth. It's not a big deal to change the court, which one is stronger, hugging which thigh is the way to survive. But if it falls into the hands of the old club again, then every Haoqiang will not be lenient to people like them. Either don't rebel, or if you want to rebel, you have to reverse completely.

Niu Jinda threw down the big flag with the word Wei written in front of him, threw it on the ground and stepped on it twice, and then threw it down the city.

Huang Junhan smiled at him with appreciation, tonight Niu Jinda's five people showed their knowledge of current affairs, which made him very satisfied. Although they surrendered, they were forced by his sword and gun. But at the very least, these five people understood the affairs, so that he sacrificed the tiger prison to Chen Kefu bloodlessly.

The Hebei cavalry was fierce, and in the roar, the horse's hooves were flying, and the dust and smoke were everywhere, and the momentum was unstoppable. With the sound of rumbling iron hooves, the five hundred vanguard Thunder Battalion cavalry had already crossed the drawbridge and rushed into the city.

A moment later, three green signal arrows were raised in succession over the city.

Chen Kefu, who was slowly approaching the city with a large army, was overjoyed when he saw this, and waved his hand, "The whole army will enter the city immediately!" ”

Tiger Prison Pass is the most dangerous and strong pass in the east of Luoyang, whether it is Hebei or Shandong, or Huaibei, Huainan, Jiangnan and other places, if you want to attack Luoyang, you must pass through this Xiongguan.

Chen Kefu rode on the horse and watched the majestic pass all the way.

More than 200 steps before the Tiger Prison Pass, there are already traps and antlers, as well as the four-legged iron nails invented by Hebei copied by the Wei army. This kind of small iron nail invented and designed by the Hebei Army specially used for defending the city and positional warfare can be thrown on the ground at will, and one horn can be guaranteed to be facing it. It works best against charging cavalry, and it works just as well against infantry. …,

Two steps outside the gate, there was a defensive belt of traps, antlers, and nails, leaving only a narrow passage in front of the gate. This passage was intended for scouts to enter and exit, and as soon as the enemy was detected, the defenders of the city would immediately dig a hole in the narrow passage and drape it with antlers and nails. However, this time the Hebei army came too quickly, and the city had already surrendered, so this narrow passage was not re-blocked.

Looking at the four corners of the nails with a faint cold light scattered on the empty ground in the firelight, Chen Kefu also felt a little chill in his heart. This kind of gadget was originally made by him, and it is really useful when used against the enemy, especially when defending the city and fighting the decisive battle, and the lethality is sometimes surprising when it is sprinkled on the preset battlefield.

However, the technical content of this thing is not high, at best, it is not cheap. It didn't take long for the Hebei army to arrive, and it was soon found out by many secret agents from all sides who had been staring at the Hebei army. The heroes of all sides imitated one after another, and the damage to the cavalry was very great.

The nearly 200-step defense belt in front of the pass made Chen Kefu a little afraid, if he really fought, if he was not prepared, he would suffer a big loss. Even if you have to clean it up, you have to waste a lot of time.

When they arrived near the gate, it was a huge ditch as wide as two zhang and as deep as two zhang. There is no water in the ditch, but it is full of sharp wooden stakes. Whether it is riding on foot or falling into it, there is no possibility of escape.

Further on, there is a moat that brings in living water. Looking at the green and wide moat, Chen Kefu had a deeper impression of this tiger prison, with the ditch in front, and another moat three zhang long and two zhang wide that introduced living water in the back, just these two obstacles within the long-range weapon attack on the city head were enough to make the besieging side suffer heavy damage.

And in the dark night firelight, all of them are made of granite stone as the base, and the entire seven-zhang high city wall is a solid city wall with all-inclusive bricks, a ten-zhang high city tower, and a series of towering arrow towers and enemy towers all over the city wall.

Chen Kefu's face was already solemn, looking at the situation of this city, it was obvious that this was not the Tiger Prison that he had passed twice. This is a strong fortress built by Li Mi with countless manpower, financial resources, and material resources. Although the scale of the city is not as huge as that of Liaodong City, in terms of its tallness, solidity, and strict defense, this has far surpassed Liaodong City, the first fortress city in the northeast of the year.

The fort is even stronger than the fortress in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and Chen Kefu suddenly discovered that Li Mi is really a good person. He deposited all the 20 million stone grain he had collected in various places in Luokou Cangcheng, and now it all fell into his bag at once. The Tiger Prison Pass, the first fortress in the Central Plains, which had been built with countless material resources, was immediately delivered to his own hands.

Faced with this huge surprise, Chen Kefu had the urge to write a thank you letter to Li Mi. Li Mi, that's so interesting.
