Chapter 171: In the dead of night
Songhai City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Today's Songhai City is a world of difference from when Shaoyang first arrived, outside the original city wall, and expanded a circle, the old city is the inner city, and the new city is the outer city.
The people of Donghe, Yangguan, Wilderness and other cities, especially the people in the villages outside the city, have migrated to Songhai City, plus foreign caravans and travelers, the total resident population and floating population of Songhai City has exceeded 300,000, even if it is placed in a rich province, it can be regarded as a big city.
With these populations, the expanded Songhai City is still not crowded, which shows how vast the Songhai City is today. The walls of the outer city are higher and thicker than those of the inner city, and if the werewolves attack again, they may not even be able to climb the tower.
When facing such a city, the Blood Killing Thieves Group and the others were shocked in their hearts, and the arrogant Huggins had to put away his contempt, "I didn't expect Songhai City to be so prosperous, and this city wall is guarded, it is almost impossible to storm it." ”
In particular, he was intimidated by the feeling of the walls being one, just as the ground was called the concrete road.
"We are not going to attack the city from outside the city, but we will prepare for it, and we will start the operation at night, occupy the government hall and the four gates, and then plunder everywhere. "Bloody Kill commanded the people to gather their men separately.
Delia and the 6th sub-regiment did not come, the 5th, 7th, 8th and 9th sub-regiments were responsible for occupying a total of eight city gates in the inner and outer four gates, and the bloody slaughter led the blood fox to attack the government affairs hall, and the second and fourth sub-regiments of the bloody battle and the blood eagle team were in charge of the families in the city.
In addition to the eight major sub-regiments, there are also some elite people and horses of the vassal forces of the Blood Killing and Thieves Group who have also mixed into Songhai City, there are not many of them, but there are also two or three thousand people, and there are tens of thousands of people in the Blood Killing and Thieves Group.
When the Blood Killing and Thieves Group was acting separately, many people also gathered in the Songhai City Government Affairs Hall, in addition to Xu Shu and the Shi brothers, there were also Xu Tianyuan and other family heads.
"Those people are not small, they are almost blatantly gathering and acting, and they really think that others are blind. Xu Shu felt the dynamics in the city.
With his strength, he can see an ant within a kilometer when his spiritual sense is released, and the radius of the inner and outer cities of Songhai City is of course more than a thousand meters, but those bandits are all murderous, and if they only have a vague feeling, the entire city is within his perception range, even if it can't be subtle to every bandit, he can also know the movement of that cloud of murderous qi.
Especially those group leaders, they can't escape Xu Shu's control, except for the blood fox, each group leader is locked by his spiritual sense, as for why he doesn't lock the blood fox, it is to prevent him from being a spiritual magician from detecting it, so as to startle the snake.
"Are you all ready?" Xu Shu asked Shi Xie.
"Everything is ready, just wait for the bandits to fall into the net. ”
The surrounding family owners also said that their private soldiers were ready at all times, and as long as Xu Shu gave an order, they would participate in the action against the bandits.
Now the private soldiers of each family are not as strong as before, either they died in the werewolf invasion, or entered the army of Songhai City, and the few remaining private soldiers are used to protect the safety of the family mansion, and they are also a lot of force together, at least the equipment is much better than that of the bandits.
The sky is getting dark, there is no more hustle and bustle in Songhai City, since Shaoyang led the army to go on the expedition, the city began to implement a curfew, except for a few pedestrians who bowed their heads and hurried, there were only more husbands and occasional patrols passing by, and later, if there were still pedestrians wandering the streets, they would be arrested and examined by the patrol.
If there are people who are familiar with the situation in the city, they will definitely find that there are many fewer training teams tonight.
At the east outer gate of Songhai City, Huggins and dozens of subordinates of the Seventh Division touched here, saying that they were touching, but in fact, they had already walked here blatantly, and only once they encountered pedestrians and hid a little in the corner of the dark alley.
"Hehe, during the day, I saw that this Songhai City was still heavily guarded, but I didn't expect it to be so lax, except for a team of soldiers at the city gate and the city tower, there was almost no other garrison force, it seems that the wealth in Songhai City is destined to belong to us. ”
Huggins said proudly, it's just a team of soldiers, rushing to kill on the battlefield, his same number of subordinates must not be comparable, but to say that sneak attacks and kills people at night, dozens of people around him are enough, not to mention that there are hundreds of subordinates nearby, and there are many people at the inner city gate, there is no one to guard there, as long as it is guarded.
Not to mention that there is also him Huggins, he is not worried about whether he can take the inner and outer gates of Dongcheng, he just wants to finish things quickly and loot everywhere, the wealth of Songhai City is definitely more than he imagined, and he can't wait.
Finally coming to the outer gate of the east city, Huggins looked at the dark doorway and the ten soldiers guarding the city gate, looked back at the sky of the inner city, and waited for the signal to kill the boss, and all the people and horses acted at the same time.
At the outer gate of the West City, the blood wolf also led people to ambush nearby, and he brought a little more men than Huggins, at least hundreds of people, and there were even thousands of people squatting in the distance, and Zhang Er, who was under him, was sent to seize the inner gate.
The military camp of Songhai City is outside the west gate, so the task of the blood wolf is to defend the city gate and prevent the army of the military camp outside Songhai City.
Originally, there were still 3,000 infantry in the Qinglong Legion, but they were all transferred to guard the secondary camp, Shaoyang They were not very confident about the strength of the infantry army of the Liangjieguan Legion, and the information obtained by the Blood Killing Thieves Regiment was that there were only 1,000 soldiers in Songhai City, except for two or three hundred guarding in the city, they were all stationed in the military camp outside the city.
The south gate was Chapman's Ninth Division, and his situation was similar to that of Huggins, with all the men scattered.
The north gate was Zhang Da's eighth sub-regiment, and almost the entire sub-regiment gathered around him, while Zhang San was nowhere to be seen, and the bandits thought that he had gone to seize the inner gate.
Outside the government affairs hall, the two of them were surrounded by two sub-regiments and four or five thousand vassal forces.
"The guards in this city are a little too lax. Blood Fox said with a slight suspicion, he felt that everything was too smooth, and there were no obstacles on the way, except for a few pedestrians.
"There are only a thousand soldiers in total, and it is normal that Songhai City is so big. "The bloody slaughter was a little suspicious at first, but when I thought that the army here had gone on the march, I felt that things were going normally.
After the bandits were in place, they didn't act rashly, and continued to wait in ambush for a while, and the blood fox calculated the time, "The others should also be in place, we can send a signal and start acting." ”
Blood Kill nodded in agreement, and one of the bandit leaders beside him took out a bow, lit a rocket, and shot it into the sky, the rocket was particularly envious in the night sky, and it could be seen in the entire Songhai City, even outside the city, not to mention the leaders of the Blood Killing Thieves who had been paying attention.
