Zhao Ting led people to sneak into the city.

The location was found according to the instructions on the map.

However, that place was some distance from the city wall, and it would be easy and unreasonable to dig here.

Even if you want to dig a secret passage, you should dig it close to the root of the city.

The defense map was so precise and detailed that she couldn't possibly have chosen the wrong place for the most important information.

Zhao Ting hesitated for a moment, although he felt a little puzzled, he finally decided to choose to believe Yun Moxi.

So he let most of the people retreat to the forest to hide first, and selected a few personal followers, all of whom were trained by themselves and had strong light skills.

Follow him and creep up the city walls, where the defenses of the city are the weakest, and there are not many troops.

Although the Song army attacked the city together, the main attack was the West City Gate, and the Song army camp was also stationed twenty miles outside the West Gate.

This place is close to the north gate, perhaps because there is a high mountain behind it, it is located in a remote area, and there are not many people entering and leaving on weekdays, so Li Chongjin did not send heavy troops to guard here.

With Zhao Ting's martial arts, it was natural to easily solve the sentry standing guard in the city, and ordered a few relatives to change into the clothes of the sentry.

Continue to stand guard as the previous sentry.

The occasional soldier patrolling the city would not have noticed anything unusual here.

After the first patrol had passed, the Song army under the city was instructed to come out of the forest and quietly start digging.

The soil is surprisingly soft and somewhat damp.

The patrol soldiers in the city passed by, and the Song soldiers under the city disappeared into the forest. The patrol was gone, and they came out again to continue digging.

After digging so secretly for an hour, suddenly there was a subsidence, revealing a large hole.

Several soldiers could not retreat and fell.

Everyone was very surprised, and Zhao Ting hurriedly sent someone down to save people.

Fortunately, the hole is not deep, and some abrasions are not serious for those who fall.

The soldiers who went down to rescue the people found a passage at the bottom of the cave.

Hurriedly came up to report.

Zhao Ting's heart moved, and he leaped down to check it out for himself.

Sure enough, I saw a passage, and after ordering someone to clear it, it gradually became spacious, allowing two people to enter and exit side by side.

And the walls of the cave are still a little damp.

Lighting a torch, he walked in first, the smell of mildew and stench was pungent and suffocating, and the soldiers behind him couldn't help but turn around and spit out.

Underfoot, on the walls of the cave, on the roof of the cave, there were all disturbed rats, reptiles, snakes and ants, squeaking and screaming and running everywhere.

Zhao Ting didn't care about these and strode forward.

After walking a stick of incense, the front was blocked by a pile of stones.

He slashed it with his palm, and the stone wall was knocked down, and it turned out that the stones were just piled up, not blocked.

Further on, all the way up, the last broken wooden door, the lock has rusted.

With a slight push, he pushed it away, and the probe went out to take a look.

It turned out to be a vegetable field, which was already in Yangzhou City, not far from the north gate.

In some nearby houses, the night is quiet, and there is no light coming through.

Zhao Ting walked up and took a look at the surrounding environment and the construction of this entrance.

It is probably speculated that this passage should be the outlet of the moat of the old Yangzhou City.

Later, due to years of war, the city wall was renovated and expanded many times, so this water outlet has long been dried up and abandoned.

For so many years, few people knew that there was such a passage.

Zhao Ting was naturally excited, and hurriedly ordered people to guard the surroundings, and the soldiers outside the city also entered Yangzhou City through this passage one after another.

And Li Chongjin's army was still unaware.

After the Song army entered the city and the four gates were ambushed, Zhao Ting ordered someone to release a signal.

Zhao Guangyi, who was outside the city, had been waiting anxiously for a long time, still thinking in his heart that there must be something wrong with the defense map, otherwise why had there been no movement for so long.

In another hour it will be dawn, and if there is no news by then, the plan will have to be cancelled.

I was worried, and I saw the signal.

This time the spirit came, with a wave of the long sword, the war drums suddenly sounded in unison, and the soldiers of the Song army began to advance under the city.

The chariots also began to rumble on the offensive.

Zhao Kuangyin in the dragon tent was very calm and waited patiently.

Although he and the Yun family have not had direct contact, the information provided by the Yun family has never been wrong in the past, so he has long trusted it in his heart.

I just thought that Zhao Ting took hundreds of soldiers into the city of Yangzhou, which was guarded by tens of thousands of people, and went deep into the dangerous place.

If he can't quickly break through the city gate and enter the city to respond, then he will be in danger in the city.

Can't help but worry.

Even if he knew that he had never let himself down, he would never recklessly put himself in danger, but Zhao Kuangyin was still worried.

And Yangzhou City at this time.

There was already a fluster.

The soldiers and civilians were still asleep when they heard the shouts of killing, and before they could react, the flying stone rockets had already fallen into the city.

In a panic, he rushed to the head of the city with his weapons.

Looking down, the dense Song army under the city, the sky is not clear, only the dotted firelight stretches for miles, and the momentum is amazing.

The ladder has been rebuilt to the city walls.

There were already Song troops climbing to the top of the city.

The soldiers of the city resisted vigorously, but suddenly there was a shout of killing behind them.

Turning his head to look, Song Jun suddenly appeared behind him.

At this moment, even the generals and soldiers who were in danger were completely stunned.

Could it be that other gates have been breached?

Otherwise, why did the Song army under the city suddenly enter the city and come behind him.

The hearts of the people who had sworn to resist to the death suddenly became empty.

The city gate is like a line of defense, it is a real existence, and it is also the gate of the inner line of defense.

If the city gate is breached, then it is basically difficult for a city to hold on, and the only thing left is street fighting to the death.

Once the defense line in the heart collapses, the fighting spirit will also die.

The sword in his hand is no longer ruthless, his determination to die is no longer firm, and he will begin to ask himself in the bottom of his heart: Am I really going to die?

And the offensive of the Song army was not only not weak, but became more and more intense.

The Song army inside and outside the city attacked inside and outside, shouting and killing to the sky.

"The Song army has entered the city, and it will not be killed if it is surrendered!" There were shouts everywhere.

The shouts made the soldiers of Chengtou Mountain even more weak and hesitant.

Because some soldiers did not know the truth, they thought that the Song army had broken through the city gate, so the generals did not listen to the orders of the generals, and began to abandon their swords and flee in all directions.

Even if they are still holding on, they are difficult to take care of, suffer from the enemy on their backs, and are beaten in chaos.

Zhao Ting distributed his manpower, disrupted the four gates, and helped the Song army outside the city to break through the city gates.

He only took a few dozen guards and headed towards the Li Mansion.

As the saying goes, if you want to end the war as soon as possible, you must first take Li Chongjin.

Without him, Yangzhou City would not be self-defeating.

And Li Chongjin has been supervising the battle in the city for the first two days, and his body is extremely tired.

Seeing the Song army retreating, he rushed back to the mansion to rest for a while.

I fell asleep when I lay down on the bed, and after a few hours, I was sleeping soundly.

I was woken up by shouts outside.

He jumped to his feet and shouted, "Someone's coming! What happened? ”

There were guards banging on the door desperately.

Hurriedly put on his clothes and got up and opened the door to look.

A small general hurriedly roared: "General, it's not good, the Song army has entered the city." Yangzhou City has been captured! ”

"Impossible!" Li Chongjin yelled and kicked him to the ground.
