Chapter 135: Piff's Counterattack (Part II)
After shooting for a while, three soldiers suddenly "dropped" their military caps off the city wall, and the three military caps did not fall down, but hung strangely on the city wall.
"Report to the commander, those three military hats hanging on the city wall are the signal that the chief Xuan said, which means that there will be his own people there, is the focus on attacking from there?"
Zhang Kai took the binoculars and observed, and found that there were indeed many rebels at the military hat signal who were very absent-minded or afraid of death when shooting, and he guessed that those were likely to be Xuanbin and their people. At this time, Zhang Kai was a little hesitant to listen to Xuan Bin's words, if Xuan Bin's people had been recognized by Xu Lanzhou, it would be a nightmare, so he had to be cautious.
Just when Zhang Kai hesitated, the first batch of troops to climb the city had already rushed through the enemy's heavy obstacles to the bottom of the city wall, some soldiers were fighting back to cover the soldiers carrying the ladder to the city, the soldiers carrying the ladder quickly erected the ladder, and after a while the ladder was set up on the city wall, the height of the ladder was just a little higher than the city wall.
"Rush! Rush up and take out these rebels! ”
As soon as the ladder was set up, the soldiers below immediately rushed upward, but they were stopped by the enemy troops on the city wall before they were stopped by the enemy troops on the city wall, and one after another the soldiers were hit and fell, falling to the ground and vomiting blood.
The soldiers in the back saw that the soldiers who climbed the city were blocked, and immediately concentrated their fire and began to attack the enemy soldiers on the city wall near the ladder, so that the enemy soldiers did not dare to raise their heads, so that the soldiers who climbed the city advanced a lot again, and some even climbed the city wall, but they were soon killed under the attack of a large number of enemy troops.
More and more ladders were put on the city wall, and the pressure of the enemy began to increase suddenly, but they relied on the strength of more troops to occupy a lot of advantages than Zhang Kai's, and this kind of climbing the city is even more difficult in the current era of thermal weapons.
Because there was no progress in ascending the city, Zhang Kai began to send a small number of people to the city after thinking about it again and again.
"Quick, get ready to cover, the army is about to enter the city from us, and you must not go on a business trip!" A soldier shouted softly to a hundred or so soldiers nearby.
When the more than 100 enemy soldiers heard this, they suddenly turned around and pointed their guns at the soldiers not far from them, but those soldiers kept blocking the enemy soldiers below, and they didn't notice this at all.
The huge wooden ladder was quickly set up at the three hanging caps, and the soldiers who had not resisted much immediately began to ascend the city, and the enemy soldiers directly above the walls did not fight back, which made them even faster.
Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire on the city wall, and the soldiers led by Yang Le, who were lurking, began to cleanse the real enemy soldiers nearby, these enemy soldiers who were shooting down frantically could not have imagined that they would be shot by their own people, and they were finished before they could resist.
The shootout on the city wall attracted the attention of the rebel officers, who thought that the enemy had come up to the city wall, and their faces were incredulous, and then they sent soldiers to annihilate the enemy army while being stunned.
The unhindered soldiers climbed the city wall in a short time, and they did not say much after they went up, but immediately attacked after confirming it, shooting at the enemy who were still stunned.
After seeing the results of landing in the city, Zhang Kai decisively ordered half of the besieging soldiers to attack from the military hat signal on a large scale, and sure enough, more and more soldiers climbed the city wall.
After climbing the city wall, the soldiers did not continue to make much progress, except for the initial defeat of the rebels and occupied part of the city wall, they were blocked by a large number of swarming enemy troops, unable to advance half a step, and some were constantly retreating.
The signal places arranged by Yang Le on the city wall were surprisingly good, almost every other distance, so that the enemy army was separated when more and more points were breached and occupied and more and more soldiers climbed the city wall. The separated rebel soldiers either surrendered without backup, or were eliminated by the two of them by the two of them, thus opening up the various troops and occupying more and more of the wall.
Half an hour later, almost all the troops who landed in the city were annihilated, and the rebels connected to them were connected, and of course there were failures, such as some of the signal points that were far away from the city were destroyed by the rebels who arrived in time. As the front and rear two signal points to the city, they were under tremendous pressure, and at first they were beaten back by the rebels, but after the points were connected and more and more soldiers came up, they began to counterattack.
Because of the narrowness of the walls, neither side was able to engage in a large-scale head-on confrontation, but only a stalemate. In terms of weapons, Zhang Kai's army had the upper hand and constantly eliminated the rebels, but the rebel soldiers attacked one after another and the number of people lurking was limited, and Zhang Kai's army did not expand quickly after occupying a certain city wall, and was temporarily confined there.
Ying'en Gate was full of war, and Zhang Kai was not satisfied with this effect and sent people to attack the rebels' weak West Gate and Pingding Gate, so that the rebels could not concentrate their firepower to deal with the soldiers who had already climbed the city wall.
"Quick, run up!" A large group of rebel officers with huge leather whips drove the soldiers of the city to the city walls, and the soldiers were whipped if they ran slowly.
Bands of rebel soldiers frantically climbed the city walls, and batches of supplies were moved to and below the city by the collected men under the supervision of the officers.
"It's not good to be a governor, the enemy army has climbed the city wall, and a small part of the city wall has been occupied by the enemy army! Our army has gone out with traitors, they have ceded the walls to the enemy, and the soldiers have found out that those traitors are our soldiers who have recently left the army and have been forcibly disbanded, and they are disguised as our soldiers while our army is not ready to fight, all of which are premeditated! A senior officer ran to Xu Lanzhou, who was about to go out to supervise the battle, and reported.
Xu Lanzhou's face turned blue after hearing this, "Immediately give me to annihilate the enemy troops on the city wall, and the other thing is to see if Yang Le is still in the cell?" The whole city is strictly investigated, no one is allowed to go out, and those who are arrested once they are found dare to resist and kill! ”
The army in the city quickly moved and frantically searched the whole city, and every suspicious person was arrested.
"Dudu, Yang Le is gone, he was replaced, it should be made by the ghosts, and it is estimated that they left it before." The officer received the news that Yang Le was missing, and immediately rushed to sue Xu Lanzhou.
"Waste, a bunch of waste, people who have been gone for so long to find out. Check it out for me, he should still be in the city, there must be accomplices, he must see people when he dies, and he wants to see corpses when he lives! Xu Lanzhou gritted his teeth and said, he knew that he should have killed all the officers who left at the beginning, but now he was bitten, and he was very angry.
On the street east of the city, a patrol of more than twenty rebel soldiers met another patrol, and the leaders of the two search teams nodded to each other before stopping before running together towards a nearby arsenal.
"Team Yang, the old thief has found out and is arresting you everywhere, we have to speed up!"
"It's going to speed up, and the time is almost up, so if you blow up this arsenal, you will hide, and you will come out after the city is broken."
The two armies ran and ran to the door of the arsenal, which was garrisoned by more than 500 soldiers, guarding the inside and outside. When the soldiers stationed there saw them, they asked them what they were coming from.
"Report to the sir, the Governor has ordered us to strengthen the arsenal, something has happened in the city, and the Governor thinks someone will come here to wreak havoc!" Yang Le stepped forward to report.
After the officer hesitated, he nodded and asked people to open the blocked door and let Yang Le and them in, and he was very happy to have a little more people to guard this.
After entering, Yang Le walked to the front of the officer and signaled that he had something to say to the officer, the officer approached Yang Le's side, Yang Le also walked up, his body and the officer's body were close together, he leaned into the officer's ear and said softly: "Take me into the arsenal, otherwise I will kill you!" Don't move! ”
The officer only felt that there was something against his waist, looked down and saw that it was a pistol, his heart instantly furious, swallowed his saliva and looked at Yang Le, only then did he realize that Yang Le was a little familiar, it turned out to be Colonel Yang Le.
"Don't move, just tell your subordinates to take us to familiarize ourselves with the place!"
"Ahem, I'll take them to get acquainted, you guys are here to take a good look, no one is allowed to come in without my order, if you go on a business trip, be careful of your skin!" The officer coughed and said.
Yang Le always followed the officer, pointing a pistol at his waist, and the soldiers seemed to be very familiar with the two.
The officer's face was covered with cold sweat, Yang Le's purpose didn't know yet, if he came here to get some weapons, he would still be able to carry it, if he blew up here, he would die!
Yang ...... Captain, what the hell are you telling me about here? The officer asked cautiously, for fear that Yang Le would jump on him next.
"Hmph, what do you say!"
"Please, let me live, they're all from here!" The officer pleaded quietly.
"You're the one we put here, aren't you?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
After a while, Yang Le and the others came to the door of the arsenal, where there were nearly forty soldiers stationed.
"Go down, this is the elite sent by the Governor, they are stationed here!"
The soldiers pushed down like this, and Yang Le's team immediately stepped forward to take their positions, and their movements were very fast, and their expressions were very strict, looking like I was the elite.
After the soldiers left, Yang Le and the others began to act, each took some ammunition and guns and arranged explosives, a long lead turned around in the arsenal many times, and it would take a few minutes to explode after ignition.
After finishing it, Yang Le reluctantly looked at the mountains of munitions, and then took the officers and soldiers to light the introduction and walked out, letting the officers make up a reason to go out of the outermost gate of the arsenal, and ran out as soon as he got out of the gate.
After a while, a shocking explosion sounded, and the entire Longjiang City shook.
