Chapter 204: Looting the Treasury
PS: Thank you book friends for laughing without crying, ~Overlord Feather~, Major General of Special Forces, and Crying for Love for your support!
The northwest area of Wancheng has been cleared out of a vacuum by Yang Rui, and because it is surrounded by the troops of the Han Ting camp, the frequency of yellow turban patrols and changes of defense near the northwest city wall has increased a lot, so Yang Rui took his soldiers to the northeast area.
The vigilance of the yellow scarves has not improved much compared to usual, and although the efficiency of Yang Rui and the others has decreased slightly, it is not too wrong!
At two o'clock in the ugly hour, when Yang Rui and the others were attacking and killing the yellow scarves in a residential house, they only heard the sudden shouting and shouting outside the city, and the four gates raised fire one after another, and the drums shook the sky! The army of the Han Ting camp is actually about to attack the city!
The yellow scarves in the house where Yang Rui was attacking and killing were suddenly awakened by the sound of drums and shouts of killing, and naturally they also discovered the existence of Yang Rui and others, and immediately there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping, and Yang Rui and the others spent some effort to control the situation! Fortunately, there was chaos everywhere in the city, so no one noticed the situation here.
Since the Han Dynasty camp army outside the city began to agitate, the yellow turbans in all parts of the city have been awakened, and they have gone to the city gates and city walls. Just looking at the number of Yellow Turban soldiers, it is not easy for the army of the Han Ting camp to break through the city!
When the Yellow Turban soldiers were in position and preparing to resist the enemy, they found that there were any Han Dynasty troops besieging the city? There were quite a few piles of bonfires, only a stone's throw away from the city walls, and the piles were evenly distributed; However, the sound of drums came from the edge of the Hanting camp farther away, and the shouting of killing also came from within the Hanting camp!
"The guts of the dog thief, it turns out that he is a trick! Delayed Lao Tzu's sleep......"
"That's it! It is! I'm sleeping soundly, too! These grandchildren ......"
……
After the yellow turbans arrived at the city wall. I found out that I was being teased by enemies outside the city. They all scolded. The scolding spread. There was a commotion on all four walls! It wasn't until an hour later, seeing that the army outside the city had not moved, that the yellow turbans began to curse and go down the city wall one after another.
In the game, Wancheng is a large city, with perfect city walls and a wide moat, although the scale of the moat cannot be compared with Xiangyang, which also belongs to Jingzhou, but compared to some cities in the north, it is much more than that! Thinking that Wancheng is not something that the Han court army can shake lightly, the Yellow Turban soldiers are still relieved about this!
The army of the Han court camp outside the city made a lot of noise and commotion for a full hour before it calmed down. Not a single soldier was sent to attack the city from beginning to end, but it turned out that it was really just a bluff!
However, the actions of the Han Ting camp army did not toss the Yellow Turbans in the city, and most of the Yellow Turban soldiers heard the momentum outside the city, almost all of them ran to the city wall to see what was going on before coming back to sleep, and it took more than one or two hours before and after!? It was the night that almost none of the Yellow Turban soldiers in Wancheng could sleep peacefully!
Yang Rui's attack on the Yellow Turban was also affected a lot, and there was almost no harvest in the first half of the night, but in the second half of the night, it was normal to brush a small piece of Yellow Turban in the house, and the overall harvest dropped by more than half!
Who knew that on the night of the second day, the Han court army outside the city was still clamoring and making noise, attacking the city. It's just that the time has been delayed for half an hour! The Yellow Turbans in Wancheng were originally worried that the Han Dynasty army would harass them again, and they didn't sleep soundly until they didn't see any movement at the ugly time. Who knows that after a while, he will be awakened again! Naturally, it is the middle of the night when chickens fly and dogs jump, and there is no peace! And Yang Rui's efficiency in brushing yellow scarves is naturally also greatly affected!
At this time, Yang Rui also guessed the intentions of some Han Ting troops, and it was very likely that they would use this tired tactic to drag down the Yellow Turban first, and then they would really attack the city! As for whether the Han Ting army already has a detailed siege plan at this time, it is unknown!
Sure enough, for the next few days and nights, the Han Ting army did not stop, and every time it made the fire bright and the cries were thunderous, it was just a gesture, and it never really sent even a single soldier to attack the city! Most of the Yellow Turbans were so angry that they wanted to go out of the city and confront the Han Ting camp army, but they never got Zhang Mancheng's order!
In this way, four or five days have passed in a hurry, and the yellow turbans in the city are exhausted and resentful by the harassment of the Han court army! Yang Rui's actions were also greatly affected, and most of their gains were reduced! In the end, Yang Rui had to move to the vicinity of the main road leading to the north gate in the Wancheng residential area, and the situation was better under the large increase in the flow of people.
However, you can only choose the small-scale yellow scarves passing by or the yellow scarves interspersed with the branch roads next to the main road.
At the end of the night, the drums outside the city rang out as usual, and the shouts and shouts resounded in the sky. At this time, the Yellow Turban knew that it was a false attack, except for the Yellow Turban soldiers on the city wall, the other Yellow Turban soldiers habitually chose to ignore it!
However, this time, it was the Han Ting camp army that really attacked the city! Outside the north gate of Wancheng, more than 100 soldiers from the Han Ting camp laboriously erected a giant "wooden plank" with ropes, and then slowly lowered it, smashing the suspension bridge that was originally pulled up by the yellow turban with a "click"!
This "plank" is about 50 meters long and 20 meters wide, and if you look at the properties, you will find that its name is "pontoon", which is obviously an item made according to drawings and can be stored for a long time. This pontoon bridge is a special siege item for crossing the moat, but in the face of the moat of Wancheng more than 100 meters wide, it can only be helpless, but it is just right for the width of the suspension bridge!
"Whoosh ......"
The yellow turban archers on the north gate tower have begun to release arrows after discovering the abnormal movement of the Han Dynasty army, and the dense arrow rain is like flying locusts to the soldiers who are building the pontoon bridge, but most of the arrows are blocked by the pontoon bridge due to the angle, and when the angle is right, there are more than seventy percent of the arrows blocked by the sword and shield soldiers of the front guard, and only a few of them are shot to the soldiers who build the bridge, and the casualties caused are not very strict.
"Click!"
"Click......"
Immediately afterwards, two pontoons were put down, and the corresponding suspension bridge was smashed to smash, and the original position of the suspension bridge was reopened a passage out!
"Kill!"
"Whoosh ......"
A large group of 5th-order shield armor soldiers from the Han Ting camp rushed forward first in the face of the rain of arrows. It was followed by several teams of wood-smashing teams and cloud echelons coming up one after another. The siege battle of the Hanting camp has officially begun! Apparently what they are trying to do is concentrated at the North City Gate!
"Hurry up! Hurry up! The Han Ting camp has begun to attack the city! ”
"It's just a trick again. Don't be noisy! ”
……
The incident happened suddenly, and the Yellow Turban soldiers in Wancheng thought that the Han court army was playing tricks again, and there were very few people who were alert.
And the Han court army did not only do it at the north gate tower, the Han court camp army by the moat around Wancheng also deployed soldiers, resisting countless simple wooden boats, and it looked like they wanted to force the moat to cross! After the soldiers defending on each section of the city wall found out about the situation, they naturally didn't dare to be careless, and kept staring at the Han court soldiers who were crossing the river.
"Knock Knock"
"Whoosh"
"Kill!"
"Drink"
At the north gate of Wancheng, an offensive and defensive battle was fierce. Several striking logs kept thundering the north gate of Wancheng, and the cloud ladder was also erected to the opposite side of the city gate, and the archers of the Han court camp and the Yellow Turban archers on it shot at each other, and the soldiers on both sides fell down at any time
According to this shape, with the continuous onslaught of the Han Dynasty's army, the North Gate may change hands at any time! Except for the section of the city wall near the north gate, the soldiers on the rest of the city wall did not know the battle that took place at the north gate, and thought that the situation here was similar to that of the rest of the places!
As for the Yellow Turban soldiers in the city, they couldn't count on it at this time, and the harassment of the Han Ting camp for several nights had already made them lose their sense of vigilance. At this time, when I heard the noise and noise outside the city, I thought it was also harassment and trickery. Not many soldiers simply got up to check!
"The North Gate is in danger! will be captured by the Hanting dog thieves, everyone quickly defends! ”
At this time, Yang Rui's location is near the main road leading to the north gate in the city, Yang Rui has been brushing yellow scarves here for two or three days, and he happened to meet a rider at this time, shouting for help while running, Yang Rui unexpectedly solved it, and only then did he notice the content of his shouting just now.
The North Gate is about to be captured? Yang Rui couldn't help but be a little puzzled. In fact, he didn't know that the Yellow Turban cavalry he had easily eliminated just now was sent by the defending general of the North Gate to urgently ask for help from Zhang Mancheng, the divine envoy in the county command! After this delay, the situation facing the North Gate has changed again!
It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later, when dozens of riders on the main road galloped from the city towards the north gate, that Yang Rui realized that something might really happen to the north gate! And these dozens of horsemen actually raised a big banner, presumably there must be a military general deep in it, Yang Rui was about to take it as a target, with the help of the cavalry to raise the torch but accidentally found a big "Zhang" written on the Yellow Turban flag!
Yang Rui hurriedly stopped a group of subordinates, because the general among the dozens of yellow scarves was likely to be Zhang Mancheng! Until dozens of yellow scarves galloped past near Yang Rui's hiding place, after Yang Rui saw the silver-armored strong man who was the leader of the team, he was already eighty percent sure that these dozens of horses were led by Zhang Mancheng himself!
Dozens of yellow turban horses galloped by, Yang Rui wanted to follow to see the situation at the north gate and see if there was a chance, but at the last moment he suddenly changed his mind! Now that the north gate is in an emergency, Zhang Mancheng led the crowd to defend, maybe the county order is empty! Thinking of this, Yang Rui gathered all the junior generals and a group of thieves leaders, went against Zhang Mancheng, and killed in the direction of the county command!
Facts have proved that Yang Rui's last-minute decision is very correct, when he led everyone to the county mansion, there were only a few soldiers guarding in front of his door, and Yang Rui entered the county mansion very easily.
There are a lot of Yellow Turban soldiers in the county government, but their strength is probably at the 3rd or 4th order. Therefore, Yang Rui did not encounter much decent resistance, and after taking down the 1 junior general-level yellow turban general who stayed behind, the rest of the yellow turbans could not make any waves, and all the soldiers he encountered were swept away by Yang Rui.
Wancheng was originally a big city, it was the seat of Nanyang County, and the scale of its county government was much larger than that of Juping County, but Yang Rui had the experience of walking around in Juping County, and at this moment, Yang Rui went straight to the direction of the treasury after attacking the county government!
There were also many Yellow Turban soldiers guarding the treasury, but it was difficult to stop the footsteps of Yang Rui and others.
I saw that in the treasury of hundreds of square meters, only gold and silver occupied half of the wall, and there were several piled up like a hill! Even Yang Rui is a person who has seen a lot of scenes, and he was shocked by the huge wealth in front of him! Two of these hills are made entirely of gold bricks, and the rest are scattered pieces of gold, silver, and jewelry!
Yang Rui was overjoyed, how much money did this get! A gold brick is worth 100 gold coins, and at first glance, there are at least hundreds or even thousands of gold bricks in each pile, or about 100,000 gold coins! Two piles of gold bricks down is 200,000 gold! This is only the gold bricks, although the rest of the piles of gold, silver, and jewelry cannot be estimated for the time being, the value is also unlimited!
After being slightly distracted, Yang Rui and the soldiers began to pack up the gold and silver in the treasury to the ring! Thankfully, there is enough space for the ring, and only a small part of these belongings can be accommodated! (To be continued......)
