Chapter 43
The rescue is unfavorable, and now that the base camp is occupied, how can people not be anxious, Feng Jin is rushing all night, all the way lightly and quickly.
When 5,000 men and horses stood under Dingyang City, the gate of Dingyang City had already been closed. Even though Feng Jin tried his best, the gate of Dingyang City still did not open, and it seemed that Feng Jin was ignored.
Helpless, Feng Jin had no choice but to scold, "The people in the city listen to me, you wait for thieves, take advantage of our army's expedition to attack me from behind Anyang, Dingyang, what kind of ability, if you are a character, come out to compete with me." ”
The people in the city turned a deaf ear to Feng Jin and let him scold.
Even if Feng Jin's 5,000 men and horses matter, if Dingyang City wanted to be captured by only his 5,000 men, it would be tantamount to wishful thinking. had to leave angrily, twenty miles away from Dingyang City, camping and waiting for the arrival of Liu Bang's army.
Feng Jin said indignantly, when the army arrives, he will definitely take off the head of the thief, these thieves are playing some tricks behind their backs, what kind of ability is it, blindly insulting, I am afraid that it will insult the reputation.
Feng Jin was in the barracks, pacing back and forth, becoming more and more restless, Feng Jin, as the vanguard of the army, on the one hand to inquire about the news, on the other hand to recapture Dingyang City. But now it is unknown who occupies Dingyang City, isn't this a joke.
Feng Jin became more and more uncomfortable, it was getting late, he had no intention of sleeping, and he always felt that it was not a problem. Feng Jin thought about it, it was better to take advantage of the darkness to sneak attack. Presumably, this thief has occupied Dingyang, and our army has not arrived, so we must be lax in our defenses, as long as the city gate is opened, my 5,000 men and horses will naturally take this city. The spies had said before that they were not numerous.
Thinking of this, Feng Jin immediately gathered his troops and ordered to attack the city tonight.
Feng Jin said to the lieutenants on the left and right, I will lead a hundred people to climb the wall and enter, and when the city gate is opened, let these two lieutenants lead the army to kill all the troops, go straight to the county guard's mansion, and capture the thief alive.
The night was quiet and terrible, and the late autumn season was full of biting cold winds. Above the gate of Dingyang City, more than a dozen soldiers on duty were bending over, chatting enthusiastically at their hands, and there were bursts of complaints from time to time. God, it's too cold!
Originally, these soldiers would not be so loose, but they received a message from above when they changed shifts, and there was nothing to do at night, so that the brothers would pay more attention to their bodies, and the enemy soldiers would not come to sneak attack.
Originally, there were dozens of sentinels on duty at night, but many of them were temporarily transferred, and only about a dozen people remained. That's it, that's it, since the enemy won't come, it's better to get together to talk, chat, or pass the boring night, and have a good rest after the changing of the guard in the morning.
The soldiers gathered in twos and threes, talking softly, and one soldier asked everyone, "You say, why do you want to take this Anyang and Dingyang?" Aren't these rebels good people? Isn't it too immoral to do that?"
Then a soldier sighed, "It's not just immoral, what did our brothers follow the adults for, it was for the righteousness of the world, but now the adults do this, too"
"What's too much? Then he said, "Suddenly a word came from behind the soldier.
The soldier didn't notice who was behind him, and said to himself, "It's really immoral and disappointing for adults to do this, maybe your lord has his thoughts and bitterness."
"Hehe, occupying the city of the rebels is also a bitter matter, and it is not a joke," the man behind him suddenly said gloomily.
The soldier turned his head to look, and this one fell to the ground, isn't this the big man who called out the battle outside the city during the day, how could he appear here. was about to shout, but was silenced by Feng Jin.
Feng Jin didn't expect that it would be so smooth, and he would climb the city wall so easily, and this defense would be too lax.
