Chapter 446: Attack on Chengdu

Chang Liu followed the list written by Hua An, found the dozen or so Shu generals one by one, and explained their intentions in turn, and asked them to go to Chang Xuan's mansion.

These dozen generals and colonels learned that an order came from the Jin army camp outside the city, so they did not dare to slack off and secretly infiltrated Chang Xuan's mansion in various ways.

A small number of generals and colonels who were on duty also used the excuse of diarrhea to hand over the task to their deputy, and rushed to Chang Xuan's mansion as fast as possible.

An hour later, more than a dozen Shu army generals all entered Chang Xuan's mansion, and after meeting, they knew each other that the other party had also taken refuge in the Jin army, and sighed for this.

In the secret room of Chang Xuan's mansion, Chang Xuan discussed with more than a dozen Shu army generals, and early the next morning, he cooperated with the Jin army outside the city to seize the east gate.

Since this is a rebellious move, it is not good to affect the nine clans, so everyone seems to be very cautious and dare not have the slightest sloppiness and slackness.

"Lord Chang, our troops are stationed in the direction of the north gate, if we transfer the army to the east gate early tomorrow morning, it will definitely arouse suspicion, this is very difficult to do!" A camp owner said helplessly.

"Lord Chang, my department is responsible for defending the West Gate, and leaving the West Gate with the team for no reason will definitely arouse suspicion, and the camp owner will not agree." Another camp owner whispered.

Chang Xuan nodded and said softly: "Your situation, you really can't leave casually, then, what about the rest of the people?" What is your situation, can you draw troops and go to the direction of the East Gate?"

"Lord Chang, my department is responsible for guarding the east gate, and tomorrow will be the villain on duty. However, there are only 100 people under the villain's command, so I'm afraid it's not enough strength! One of the team members said loudly.

Chang Xuan was slightly happy in his heart, and said softly: "Okay, good!" Finally, there are a hundred men and horses, and there are no more who can go to the direction of the East Gate to cooperate with the Jin army. ”

"Lord Chang, my department of 300 men will be responsible for patrolling the city tomorrow, if necessary. You can go in the direction of the East Gate. Waiting for reinforcements. A brigade commander said.

"Well, great, there are already four hundred people, if there are so many more. You will be sure to capture the east gate. Chang Xuan was overjoyed. There are at least two teams. It can cooperate with the Jin army to attack the east gate.

"Master Chang, our people will rest in the camp tomorrow, if you are lucky. You can sneak out of the camp and head to the east gate. Another brigade commander clenched his fists and said.

"Okay, seven hundred, we have seven hundred men." Chang Xuan looked even more excited.

"Master Chang, count me in, tomorrow my department will definitely find a way to go to the direction of the East Gate."

"Lord Chang, our department must also try our best to go to the East Gate for reinforcements."

"Master Chang, count me in."

There were three team members in the first company, expressing their willingness to reinforce the East Gate.

Chang Xuan was overjoyed and said: "Okay, now we have a thousand men and horses, in this way, we must be able to cooperate with the Jin army outside the city to capture the east gate, as long as the main force of the Jin army enters the city, our task will be completed." ”

"What Master Chang said is right, at this juncture, we have no choice but to do a big job, and winning a lifetime is indispensable for glory and wealth, and if we lose, we will die." One of the team members said loudly.

"Yes, we have no choice but to do it." All the generals think so.

Chang Xuan nodded, and said: "Okay, now that the emperor is far away from loyal ministers and close to villains, the people of Shu are not happy, I don't have to be foolish, you soldiers go back and prepare!" The old man waited for good news in the mansion. ”

"Okay, Master Chang stays, I'll leave first." More than a dozen soldiers answered and left one after another.

In order not to attract the attention of outsiders, a dozen generals were divided into batches and left through different side and back doors to cause minimal movement.

After all the generals left, Chang Xuan looked at his henchman Chang Liu, and said softly: "As a courtier of the Han Dynasty, I am really disloyal and unrighteous to seek glory today!" ”

"The lord doesn't have to blame himself, it's the current emperor who is mediocre and doesn't know how to sympathize with the people, which makes Shu Zhongtian angry and resentful, even if the lord doesn't cooperate with the Jin army, the Han can't escape the fate of the country, the lord does this, which can greatly reduce the casualties of the soldiers of the two armies, which can be regarded as a good deed." Chang Liu comforted.

Chang Xuan nodded and said, "What you said is also reasonable, but, after all, Master Ben is a courtier of the Han Dynasty, and he received the Han Dynasty's Yulu, and betrayed his master, which is very uncomfortable!" If the Jin army enters Chengdu, this master will persuade the generals of the Jin army to save the emperor's life, which can be regarded as a little bit of his intention to be a courtier! ”

Chang Liu nodded and stopped talking.

######

Early in the morning of the second day, in the Jin army camp three miles outside the north gate of Chengdu, all the Jin soldiers and horses were making final preparations to launch an attack on Chengdu at any time.

Hua An got up early, and with a pair of personal soldiers, he inspected the camp, and after a cursory inspection, Hua An returned to the big tent of the Chinese army.

At this time, in Hua'an's Chinese army tent, all the generals of the whole army had been gathered and were preparing to accept Hua'an's orders.

"Big brother, our 7,000 men and horses have been prepared and can attack at any time." Tie Niu walked to Hua'an's side and said loudly.

"General, our 7,000 men and horses have also been prepared and can attack." Li Yi followed and asked for his life.

Thunderstorm also walked to Hua An's side and asked, "Big brother, the five thousand cavalry of our department have also been prepared, and they can respond to the infantry at any time." ”

"Big brother, the baggage battalion has completed its tasks, all the siege equipment has been prepared, and the pro-soldier battalion will be gathered outside the camp and can set off at any time." Wang San also opened his mouth to report.

Hua An looked at everyone, nodded, and said loudly: "The soldiers have worked hard, whether they can capture Chengdu today depends on you, now I will arrange the combat mission, General Tie Niu led 7,000 men and horses as the left wing, attacking the right city wall of the north gate of Chengdu, General Li Yi led 7,000 men and horses as the right wing, attacking the left wall of the north gate of Chengdu, the baggage battalion stayed in the camp, and the rest of the men and horses were on standby, did you understand?" ”

"Yes, General." The generals in the big tent received the order, turned around and left the big tent, and immediately led the men and horses of their subordinates to approach the north gate of Chengdu.

After the generals left, Thunderstorm looked at Hua'an and asked, "Big brother, they have all gone to war, what are our cavalry doing, you have to give us some tasks!" ”

Hua An smiled and said loudly: "What's the hurry, later, your cavalry will attack the east gate with me, go and prepare!" ”

"Oh, run to the east gate, yes, big brother." Thunderstorm took the order, strode out of the tent, and went to prepare.

Tie Niu and Li Yi's men and horses, under the cover of a large number of giant shields, slowly pressed towards the north gate of Chengdu city wall, due to the large number of men and horses, well-armed, the soldiers are full of confidence, will be able to capture Chengdu.

Seeing that the black and oppressive Jin army in front of them was approaching, the Shu army on the city wall was a little frightened, so many Jin soldiers and horses, and a large number of sophisticated siege equipment were pressing step by step, which put great pressure on the Shu army defending the city, so that they did not dare to have too much hope for whether they could hold the city.

However, the Shu army defending the city has formulated a new tactic according to the characteristics of the Jin army's siege the city the day before, first of all, all the damaged thunderbolts and giant crossbows defending the city have been repaired in time, in addition, in order to deal with the heavy giant shield of the Jin army, the Shu army has prepared a large number of fire-igniting things, and is ready to use giant crossbows and thunderbolts to throw these ignited fire-burning things into the Jin army's military formation, in order to burn these wooden giant shields and siege thunderbolts.

"General, the vanguard of the Jin army has entered the range of our army's giant crossbow, whether to shoot or not." The Colonel asked loudly.

"Don't worry, just like yesterday, after the Jin army enters the range of our army's thunderbolts, the giant crossbow and the thunderbolts will attack together." The Shu army guard ordered loudly.

Soon, the vanguard team of the Jin army entered the attack range of the thunderbolt chariots of the Shu army defending the city.

The general of the Shu army, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, ordered loudly: "The soldiers are on fire and ready to shoot." ”

Under the orders of the Shu generals, the Shu soldiers defending the city lit a large number of fire-igniting objects and placed them on top of thunderbolts and giant crossbows, ready to fire fireballs at any time.

"Put." The general of the Shu army shouted loudly and gave the order to launch.

"Whoosh...... Huhuhu...... "A large number of fireballs were fired by giant crossbows and thunderbolts, and shot into the Jin army's military formation.

The fireball fired by the thunderbolt car directly fell on the forward position of the Jin army's military formation, and many thunderbolts and giant shields of the general's forward formation ignited, and burned many Jin soldiers on the spot.

And because the range of the giant crossbow is relatively long, therefore, the giant shield behind the Jin army formation, is also inserted with many burning rockets, although the Jin army's giant shield is very thick, the giant crossbow can not shoot through, but the burning fireball on the giant crossbow can ignite the wooden giant shield, thereby weakening the defense of the giant shield, and even completely burning the giant shield.

"General, what should I do, the Shu army launched a fire attack, and many of our army's giant shields and thunderbolts were destroyed by the fire, and the soldiers were also burned to death and wounded." A subordinate general reported to Iron Bull.

Such a situation greatly exceeded Tie Niu's expectations, but the bold words had already been said, and Li Yi's men and horses on the side showed no signs of retreating, so Tie Niu naturally couldn't admit it.

"No matter how big the casualties are, today, our army must capture Chengdu, let the soldiers stabilize me, and slowly move forward." Iron Bull ordered loudly.

"Yes, General." The general of the department received the order and personally rushed in the direction of the forward to stabilize the situation of the forward.

On the right side of the Iron Bull, Li Yi's men and horses naturally encountered the same situation, seeing that the Iron Bull did not retreat, he naturally could not retreat, because, at this time, it was the time to reflect the strength of the Shuzhong Army, if it retreated at will, it would definitely make the Jin army from Jiangnan look down.

The direction of the north gate city wall has already been fought, and Hua'an, which is in the camp, is also ready to surprise attack the east gate.

"Big brother, the five thousand cavalry of the pro-military camp and the thunderstorm have been prepared and are ready to go."

Hua An nodded, stepped on the war horse, and said loudly: "Soldiers, follow me to attack the east gate and drive the ......" After speaking, he rode his horse towards the east gate of Chengdu.

"Driving the ......" Wang San and Lei Storm led a total of 6,000 cavalry, followed behind Hua'an, and walked towards the east gate of Chengdu. (To be continued......)
