Chapter Ninety-Six, Breaking the City

Just when He Jinshui was hesitating to make a decision, the mayor of Yunshui Town personally went to the Baizhen Army camp to meet Liu Feng.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, there are only Liu Feng and the mayor of Yunshui Town. The mayor of Yunshui Town is surnamed Ning, named Tianfeng, looks about fifty years old, not tall, relatively strong, at first glance, seems to be a warrior, but in fact, he is a wise man, otherwise he would not be able to develop and grow Yunshui Town under the nose of the enemy after his sister and brother-in-law's family died at the hands of the enemy and the old father.

Ning Tianfeng came to surrender in person and explain to Liu Feng about He Jinshui, which was the second big gift he gave to Liu Feng.

Among the dozen or so generals in Aoshan City, there is more than one who has received the favor of his brother-in-law, and there is more than one who is good friends with him, but he chose He Jinshui, a person who has only crossed paths with his brother-in-law for half a day. He originally didn't know the relationship between He Jinshui and his brother-in-law, but not long ago, someone sent him a letter and told him what happened, although he didn't know who that person was, but he believed in the truth of the matter, and also showed that person's attitude, so he chose He Jinshui as the internal response. Because he knows that this person is really thinking about Aoshan City, and he has courage. As for the others, they would never dare.

After sending a letter to He Jinshui, he raised troops to cooperate with the siege of Baizhen. After cooperating with Bai Jian to settle the siege, he officially met Liu Feng and expressed his attitude.

In the big tent, the two were talking, someone came to report, and news came from Aoshan City.

Ning Tianfeng took the letter, looked at it carefully, no one had done anything, and then opened it to read. He read it very slowly, and it took him a while to finish reading, so that Liu Feng couldn't help but want to know what was written in it.

Finally, Ning Tianfeng finished reading the letter, handed it to Liu Feng, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the city lord, He Jinshui has promised to dedicate the city in three days, and Aoshan City is within reach." "Before he laid down Aoshan City, he already called Liu Feng with such a title, otherwise both of them are mayors, how can they show their subordination.

"Oh, really?" Liu Feng didn't go out of his way to correct his mistakes, and took the letter, but found that it was sparse with dozens of words, but it was not a message from Toucheng, but a letter persuading Ning Tianfeng to turn around, so he looked at Ning Tianfeng and said, "What's going on?" ”

He Jinshui said in the letter that three days later, in the evening, he was waiting for the army at the west gate, just hoping that the army would kill fewer people after entering the city. Ning Tianfeng said.

"That's natural, once I capture Aoshan City, those people are my people, I still need them to prosper the city, how can I kill innocents indiscriminately! But is this credible? You said before that there is more than one acquaintance in Aoshan City, what if it is seen by someone you know? Although Liu Feng was happy, he was not vigilant.

"The city lord can rest assured that when contacting Aoshan City, everyone has a set of code words to ensure that the news will not be leaked and is absolutely safe. As for He Jinshui's problem, his subordinates dare to vouch for him, and I believe in his character. Ning Tianfeng said with an oath.

Liu Feng pondered, Ning Tianfeng shouldn't be able to lie, not to mention He Yun's relationship, even with the sixth-order generals and thousands of elite troops, Ning Tianfeng would not dare to have any bad thoughts. The question now is whether this He Jinshui is worth trusting. After a long time, he finally decided to take a gamble and believe in this He Jinshui.

He is not a blind gamble, his reliance is the sixth-order Bai Jian and the thousands of elite troops. He didn't believe that Aoshan City, in a mourning, had the ability to set a trap and eat this army led by a sixth-order general.

Liu Feng didn't know that after He Yun confessed his relatives and explained his intentions, Ning Tianfeng once asked He Yun if he was willing to rebel against the guest and become the city lord himself after taking Aoshan City, after all, on the bright side, the army of more than 13,000 people in Yunshui Town far exceeded the 7,000 combined troops of Baizhen and Aoshan Town. But after listening to He Yun talk about Bai Zhen's strength, he didn't dare to think about it anymore. He had never seen a sixth-order general, but the strength of a fourth-order general had been deeply imprinted in his heart more than ten years ago, and the combat power of thousands of elite troops had enough to offset the difference in numbers. This is only the White Town in the long war, and once the war is over and it recovers, the White Town will be even stronger.

After making up his mind, Liu Feng began to convene everyone for a combat meeting. The 10,000 troops who have just received Yunshui Town have not yet been run-in, and they just need to get familiar with it in the past few days. At the same time, in order to cooperate with the operation three days later, Liu Feng asked to increase the frequency of siege.

After the meeting, Liu Feng left Bai Jian alone, explaining the matter of He Jinshui, asking Bai Jian to prepare to personally bring the elite army into the city, and at the same time expressed his concern about the excessive number of troops in Yunshui Town.

So when the siege was carried out the next day, the newly arrived 10,000 troops of Yunshui Town became the main force of the siege, and the casualties were far greater than the combined forces of Baizhen and Aoshan Town.

It's not that Liu Feng is ruthless, but this is indeed a hidden danger. Although these people had to cooperate under Bai Zhen because of Ning Tianfeng's prestige, there were always some people who would be dissatisfied and unwilling to be subservient. Once these people make trouble, they are afraid that they will break up directly before they capture Aoshan City.

The siege of the city was difficult, especially the walls of Aoshan Castle were as high as four zhang. Baizhen has no armory, no drawings, and can't even build a ladder, let alone a rushing car specially used to break through the city gate, so he can only rely on the ladder captured in repeated battles to attack the city, and it can't be replenished after the loss. The ladders that the carpenters imagined were of poor quality.

The main force of the siege is at the south gate, and the other three gates are all made to besiege the city. On the first day of the siege, nearly 1,000 people were killed and wounded, but the moat of Aoshan City was finally filled. On the second and third days, the siege continued, and it became more intense, with a total of more than 3,000 casualties, of which the loss of Yunshui Town was as high as more than 25,600, which caused even more dissatisfaction among some generals in Yunshui Town.

Luckily, it's only three days.

During these three days, some of the troops in the large camp were broken into pieces and disappeared, but at the same time they gathered somewhere outside the West Gate.

At night, Liu Feng also quietly came to the West Gate, and he decided to enter the city in person.

Bai Jian is the unyielding commander, Ning Tianfeng only brought a few people as guides, and Liu Feng also had his own team of people to support him. His role is to boost morale, and life and death have been put aside by him. If you can get a city at this time, it is worth losing the identity of the Han family. After all, it is still two to say whether the identity of the Han clan is useful or not, but the city is in front of you.

Finally, the appointed time came, and the army that had entered the city had secretly run not far from the city gates. Ning Tianfeng looked at the city tower anxiously, hoping that the fire in his heart would appear in front of him soon, this was the capital he had gained a foothold in Baizhen. Liu Feng and Bai Jian were very calm, and if they failed, it would be a big deal to forcibly attack the city, although that would cause heavy losses and affect the next development.

Maybe he heard the call in Ning Tianfeng's heart, and finally three torches lit up on the city, and the "one" shape flickered twice, Ning Tianfeng immediately responded, and responded three times with five S-shaped torches. After the two sides confirmed the signal, soon the west gate was opened, and Ning Tianfeng took the entourage to take the lead, and then saw He Jinshui who came to greet him.

He Jinshui is a typical military general, dressed in armor and with a beard, and it is too late to say more, Bai Jian has already led people into the city. In addition to all the elite troops, they also brought hundreds of veterans, a total of more than 2,000 people.

The 500 veterans guarding the city are He Jinshui's descendants, and the two first-order generals were drunk by his design, and the dozens of henchmen of the city lord guarding the city gate were quietly killed, and as for those recruits, they were still sleeping in the military camp not far away.

Leaving more than 300 people to control the city gate, he sent people to the camp to instruct the people left behind to act according to the plan, and placed He Jinshui's 500 descendants who were unwilling to attack his former compatriots in the military camp outside the city, and used He Jinshui as a guide to advance towards the city.

Everything went on quietly. But after all, this was the action of thousands of people, and before the plan was completed, it had already alarmed the recruit barracks not far from the city gate, and there was a sudden chaos. At this time, Liu Feng couldn't take care of it so much, and ordered to ignore those recruits and act quickly.

Aoshan City was already small, so it marched in a hurry, and rushed from the west gate to the south gate in a quarter of an hour. Although there was a riot on the road, the speed of the riot could not keep up with the speed of Bai Jian's march, and when they arrived at the south gate and began to attack the defending army, the defenders of the south gate did not receive any news.

At the beginning of the battle, it was basically a one-sided killing. The sleeping army of Aoshan City was caught off guard when they thought that the enemy would come from the city, and they couldn't organize a defense at all.

At this moment, shouts of killing were also heard outside the city, and the army of the large battalion began to attack the city as planned. Liu Feng personally led an elite army to the city gate, and was stabbed several times before killing all these soldiers who were loyal to the city lord, and then opened the city gate.

The soldiers of Baizhen, who entered the city one after another, saw the mayor under the firelight personally open the city gate, and their morale was greatly boosted, and they roared into the city - this may be Liu Feng's role in this battle.

When the army entered the city, Liu Feng immediately found Bai Jian. At this time, Bai Jian had already completely solved the unprepared generals of Aoshan City, one third-order and several second-order generals were killed and wounded, and one did not fall, except for a few first-order generals in other places, the advanced generals guarding the south gate of Aoshan City were all wiped out.

"Leave them alone, just leave it to the people behind, now let's go to the City Lord's Mansion to prevent them from abandoning the city and escaping."

Bai Jian naturally knew the truth of capturing the thief and capturing the king, so he immediately gathered the soldiers under his command, and after gathering, he led people to the city lord's mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion was quiet, and it seemed that the situation outside could not affect here. In the silence, the silence was shattered by the chaotic sound of horses' hooves.

"Who?" When the sound of horses' hooves stopped at the gate of the city lord's mansion, the people in charge of the guards secretly shouted.

"Urgent information, please inform the chief steward and inform the city lord." The people came out of breath.

The defeat in the battle affected the mood of the castle lord, but it did not affect his enjoyment. Just tonight, he also pampered a maid sent by a subordinate and turned the phoenix upside down until late at night. He had barely slept when he was awakened by an eager knock at the door.

"Who? What are you knocking in the middle of the night, there are dead people in the house? The city lord who was woken up scolded in a daze.

"City Lord, no, the city is broken, please hurry up and preside over the overall situation." The housekeeper's panicked voice came from outside, and for a moment, the city lord was completely sleepy and cold.
