Chapter 420: Only Killing

Wang Jinqian ordered the left and right to entertain these surrendered soldiers to eat and drink. Then he called his henchman Sun Yun and asked him to light up 3,000 elite soldiers, prepare to wait for the city gate to open at midnight, control the entrance, and enlarge the army into the city. Sun Yun asked Dashuai if these people could be trusted. Wang Jinqian replied: "As soon as I saw their greedy eyes, I knew that they were absolutely credible. ”

At midnight, Sun Yun led 3,000 people and a few deserters to the West City Gate. The three thousand elite soldiers were all dressed in black, and no one carried torches. When they reached the city gates, the deserters lit torches and shook them into the city. Not long after, there were also people in the city who lit torches and shook in response. Soon after, the gates were creaked open, and the torches were swaying inside, and the sounds of fighting, shouting, and screaming could be heard. The deserters hurriedly beckoned to Sun Yun and said, "General, hurry up and lead the troops up, if the brothers in Neiying can't resist it, the city gate will be closed again." With that, they drew their swords and jumped into the moat and swam to the other side.

Sun Yun made people return quickly, saying that the city gate had been opened, and Fuyang County was about to be breached. Please send troops to meet the commander. He and the three thousand elite soldiers swam across the moat. They did not dare to wear armor and carry heavy weapons, lest they could not swim in the water. When they came ashore, they saw that there was already a fire flickering in the city gate, and they were in a hurry, so they climbed ashore wet and rushed in.

The west gate of Fuyang County was wide open, and the torches were shaking inside, swords and guns were colliding, and fierce battles were raging. Sun Yun sent someone to report to the commander Wang Jinqian, and on the other hand, he led his 3,000 elite soldiers to swim lightly across the wide moat and rush into the city gate to support.

Sun Yun has a good water nature. He took the lead and followed the fastest group of warriors across the river to rush into the West City Gate of Fuyang County. Everyone was excited, and after shouting and rushing in, he was a little dumbfounded. Fifty meters away from the west gate, there was a high wall, about the same height and thickness as the outer wall, and there was also a gate, but the gate was tightly closed.

Since the end of the last war, Luo Ming has held many meetings with the senior generals of the Black Cloud Kingdom to summarize the lessons learned from the two wars. The generals said that the battle to defend the city was too hard. Although it can inflict greater damage on the enemy, that kind of tragic scene is something that most veterans who have participated in bloody battles do not want to recall afterwards.

After repeated discussions and exchanges on the defensive battle of the city wall. Luo Ming suddenly remembered the scene of visiting Jiayuguan on the Great Wall in his previous life.

Jiayuguan is an important pass at the westernmost point of the Great Wall. It is responsible for resisting the attacks of the most fierce nomads in the northwest all year round, and it is a Xiongguan Iron Pass that is known as an unbreakable one. It's very well designed. There is a wall in the wall of Jiayuguan, and it is related to the pass. Once the gate is unguarded and broken through by the nomadic iron horsemen, these cavalry will immediately fall into the flank between the inner and outer walls.

When they want to attack the gate of the gate, in order to fight the soldiers guarding the core. They had to withstand a frenzied barrage of arrows, rocks, rolling logs, and other defensive tools from both sides of the front.

Recalling this, Luo Ming put forward the idea of borrowing from the design of Jiayuguan. He ordered the mobilization and organization of the people, and built a tall and thick second line of defense in Fuhua County, Heiyun City, and the Mingyang Fort defense line. Because in the process of construction, Luo Ming learned from the dust and noise prevention scheme of modern construction, in the process of construction, for the purpose of confidentiality, the method of covering the scaffold with a large cloth was adopted to isolate idle people and other close voyeurs. Coupled with the tight control and blockade of the wolf's den and the blackshirts, people who can generally not enter the construction site. Therefore, such a big project, the spies of the Northern Alliance and other countries have no way of knowing.

When Sun Yun and the vanguard rushed into the two city walls together, they only saw torches scattered all over the ground, and the group of people who had just fought and killed were rushing into the gate of the inner wall, and the gate was closing. He is a brave person, and his first reaction at that time was not to be fooled, but to rush over to stop the other party from closing the door. So he shouted, "Take the door, take the door!" as he led the charge towards the gate of the inner wall. It wasn't until someone under him shouted, "General, we've been tricked!" that he came to his senses - it turned out that those so-called deserters were spies!

When he looked back, most of the 3,000 elite soldiers had already rushed through the door. Countless figures appeared in chaos on the castle towers on both sides of the interior and outside, and countless torches were lit in the originally dim surroundings, and the eyes were illuminated. Sun Yun yelled bad luck, turned around and ran desperately out of the door again, but it was obviously too late at this time. Countless arrows poured down like a torrential rain, and most of the officers and soldiers of the Northern Alliance who rushed into the city wall failed to escape.

Sun Yun was hit by dozens of arrows in the front and back of his chest, like a big hedgehog. But the fierce fellow did not fall, and he struggled to the outermost part of the west gate, and shouted at the follow-up troops who were crossing the river, "Don't come! There is an ambush!" he shouted hoarsely twice in a row, and then slowly slid to the ground, closed his eyes, and hung his stubborn head feebly.

Outside the moat, a large army was chaotically squabbling the groundwater, and most of the people were "obeying orders" to unload their armor and throw away their heavy long weapons, and the riverside was crowded for a while. Only a few people noticed the defeated soldiers who had escaped from the West Gate and Sun Yun's last warning, and they cried out, and it was at this moment that the fire on the city shone like day, and countless arrows were shot down, and a large number of people lay down in the moat and on the inner and outer banks of the city like mowing grass. The river was dyed red in an instant.

Wang Jinqian couldn't help but tremble with anger when he saw such a scene by the river. For many years, Sun Yun has been his confidant, and the two of them are robes who share life and death, but today they were ambushed because of his mistakes and died so miserably. He roared and screamed on the horse, saying that he wanted to snatch Sun Yun's body back, and his subordinates had no choice but to urge the soldiers to cross the river and attack the city, covering a small group of soldiers to rush the corpse. However, the preparations in the city were very sufficient, not only were the arrows intensive, but also many large stones and rolling logs were pushed down, killing and injuring countless people.

Although the besieging officers and soldiers brought a lot of tools to cross the river, what happened that night was too hasty and chaotic. The army went from preparing for a secret sneak attack to a strong attack under the full force of others, and the scene on this side of the river suddenly became messy. The troops in the city took advantage of this opportunity to kill.

A large number of archers rushed out of the city and lined up by the river to fire a volley. Under their tight cover, groups of infantrymen carrying parts of the disassembled improvised wooden bridge quickly built a passage in the water, and the cavalry quickly passed through and rushed towards the chaotic Northern Union camp.

The Northern Alliance brought more than 800,000 troops this time, and after reinforcing 150,000 troops on the other side of the Samanaga River, there were still more than 600,000 troops who came to attack Fuhua County. The entire camp stretched for more than ten miles. No matter how they never dreamed, with such a huge camp, the 100,000 defenders of Fuhua County would dare to go out of the city to fight a countercharge.
