Chapter Twenty-Four—Capture the Door
Ma Shiying and Mu Tianbo's action finally temporarily stabilized the situation in Liupanshui City, and the tens of thousands of miscellaneous troops of the Ming army did not have the panic at the beginning!
And this news is not good news for Li Chuan......
Just received the specific news from the dark line in the city, Mu Tianbo and Ma Shiying actually took out a few thousand taels of silver to reward the soldiers, and Li Chuan, who felt that the situation was not good, hurriedly sent dozens of loud voices to the city wall to greet the ancestors of Ma and Mu for eight generations.
It's a pity that no matter how hard Li Chuan tried, the Ming army in the city was determined to be a turtle, and they were really annoyed by those loud voices, so they shot a few arrows from the city wall to suppress it temporarily. It's just that after that, he let Li Chuanshi do it!
Looking at the nearly two-zhang high city wall, Li Chuan couldn't help beating his head, and he had a headache for a while. It is impossible for these cavalry under his command to ride a horse to attack the city. But Zhang Yun is far away in Qujing......
The situation inside and outside the city was stalemate, Li Chuan did not dare to attack the city with some skews, and Ma Shiying and Mu Tianbo were afraid of Li Chuan's cavalry and did not dare to break through.
At this time, the army will also begin to camp and prepare for a long siege. Zhang Yun, who was secretly scolding in his heart, was afraid of being discovered, so he could only temporarily take off the uniform of the Great Western Army, put on civilian clothes again, and sneaked into the surrounding mountains......
The situation has reached this point, and it is also out of Zhang Yun's expectations, and the original plan can only be changed because of this.
After all, there is no chaos here now, and it is not impossible to hit Li Chuan's black gun in public, but this appearance is inevitably too ugly, not to mention that it is not realistic to expect that among the 20,000 cavalry, no one will recognize him. And once their behavior is exposed, what will the hundreds of thousands of recruits think of themselves?
You must know that there are many fools in this world, but there are also many smart people......
Originally, Zhang Yun's plan was very good, as long as Li Chuan was careful with the speed of the cavalry, it was very likely that he would catch them off guard before the Ming army could react.
And wait until the two armies are killed together, in that chaotic scene. It is not impossible for Li Chuan, the cavalry commander, to be suddenly killed by a hidden arrow!
Even if Li Dingguo found out later, he left the army to act alone during this time, so he suspected himself.
In the absence of concrete evidence, Li Chuan was killed on the battlefield. Then even if it is to protect Li Chuan's reputation. Li Dingguo could only forcibly endure it. I would never make a big deal about it, let alone ask where I was during that time. The reverse is different!
Although Zhang Yun was not afraid of Li Dingguo's face, let alone his reputation, he was afraid that Li Dingguo would be wary of him. In the future, everything will be done against yourself......
Therefore, after scolding Li Chuan for his incompetence in his heart, Zhang Yun could only lurk. Wait quietly for dark!
……
The time seemed to be unusually long in waiting, and just when Zhang Yun was about to lose patience, the first torches finally appeared on the city's head, and then all the city walls were lit......
Seeing this, Zhang Yun perked up and began to sneak towards the city wall.
It's just that Zhang Yun quickly found out that the situation was a little bad!
Due to the confrontation, no matter how many sentinels patrolled outside the city, the number was not too many, and they were unable to approach the city wall despite all means.
Looking at the current situation, I am afraid that it will not be possible to seize the opportunity to sneak outside the city wall until the second half of the night, when both sides are exhausted. For a while, Zhang Yun was a little dumbfounded!
However, it is impossible for a living person to be suffocated to death by urine, and soon Zhang Yun thought of a stupid solution......
Half an hour later, Zhang Yun, who was wearing the uniform of a small soldier of the Great Western Army, hung tightly at the back of a patrol team. Keep your head down and be careful not to let the person in front of you notice your face.
Before coming, Zhang Yun had been observing for a long time. Knowing the route of this patrol, they will pass less than a hundred meters from the city wall.
And when the patrol team followed, it walked for another ten minutes. Zhang Yun finally found an opportunity. Lying on the ground silently, using his physical fitness far beyond ordinary people, he climbed to the foot of the city wall in the blink of an eye......
Taking advantage of the cover of the night, Zhang Yun climbed the city wall with almost no effort, and after cutting the throats of several Ming soldiers who had discovered his figure and were about to scream, he went straight to the city gate.
Naturally, countless rebellions were aroused along the way, but fortunately, Ma Shiying and Mu Tianbo, the main generals of the Ming army, did not suffer on this city wall!
Therefore, although the scattered Ming army had many bow and arrow configurations, it could not stop Zhang Yun's footsteps.
In the process, there was a huge commotion in the city. Naturally, it also woke up Li Chuan, and without thinking too much, out of the intuition of a soldier, Li Chuan immediately ordered the entire army to be assembled......
At the same time, keep a close eye on the situation on the city and be ready to act at any time!
It's just that the current situation makes Li Chuan feel a little confused. I still remember that in the information I got from Tang Chunlai's mouth at that time, there was no such thing at all!
After hurriedly looking for Tang Chunlai, Li Chuan asked. "How many of your own people are there in the city?"
Tang Chunlai naturally saw the abnormality in the city, but this unplanned situation made Tang Chunlai a little confused.
Therefore, he could only say: "General, there are only a few people left in the city, and the contact with them only relies on flying pigeons to pass on the book, and a few of them will definitely not make such a big disturbance in the city." ”
"Of course, there is no guarantee of the lowly position, Zhang Daochang has no other arrangements here, for example, in addition to the lowly position, there may be other forces in this city......"
Tang Chunlai's words made Li Chuan's heart murmur!
When Zhang Yun sent himself here, he only gave himself the password to contact Tang Chunlai!
But now this sudden situation is very obvious that there are other people in the city......
And just as Li Chuan was thinking about whether Zhang Yun still didn't trust him too much, at this time, the city gate was suddenly opened......
Li Chuan's surprise is not trivial, it seems that there are quite a few of his own people in this city. The gates were taken so quickly.
It's just that at this time, Li Chuan hesitated again! If the people in the city are their own people, why don't they contact themselves?
Since they have the energy to open the gates, they must have a channel to contact them......
Li Chuan, who was hesitant in his heart, didn't want to let go of this God-given opportunity.
So soon Li Chuan sent a battalion of more than 1,000 people to seize the city gate. At the same time, he also led the main force to force towards the city gate.
