Hundreds of Jinyi Guard Banner School was blocked by the gate of the palace, facing the dense arrows on the gatehouses and corner towers on both sides of the palace gate, unable to enter an inch, lacking shields, armor and other things, and could not enter the gate within a radius of fifty or sixty steps, and could only stare in a semicircle around the gate from a distance.

Hou Dabiao gritted his teeth and scolded angrily, just when he had nothing to do, the flag school on the periphery of the guard rushed to report that a large number of unknown people had appeared around, and they were gathering towards the palace, Hou Dabiao was startled, Lord Song and Wang Yong had just left here, and they were all under their own command here, so could they suffer from the counter-encirclement of the palace guards?

However, after a while, the false alarm became a surprise, and in the light of torches, thousands of ragged people appeared from both ends of the street, carrying baskets and water, and carrying bread and eggs, which turned out to be the army.

The people have a scale in their hearts, and King Anhua's rebellion may not be able to stop it, nor can they stop King Anhua from forcing the men in their family to go to the West Cliff to die, but silence does not mean that there is no position, it just needs an opportunity.

When I learned that the Jinyi Guard and some of the officers and soldiers of the guard in the city rebelled, many people germinated the idea of helping, the so-called people's heart, which is usually invisible and intangible, but at the critical time, it can make you really feel that people who ignore these will never know the horror of the people's heart, they are spontaneous and from the heart.

"Master Jun, why don't you attack and catch that old thief." An old man asked with concern after watching Hou Dabiao drink a bowl of tea.

Hou Dabiao said embarrassedly: "Uncle, you have also seen it, the bow and arrow shoot like a flying locust, my people rushed twice and killed and injured dozens of dozens, such an attack is to send death, don't worry, I am thinking of a way, we will definitely think of a good way to attack it, the old thief of King Anhua will definitely not be able to run this time." ”

The old man said: "Master Jun, speak whatever you need, and ask someone for me to use this old bone as an arrow and shield for you, and if you want something, we will smash the pot and sell iron." ”

Hou Dabiao hurriedly said: "Fighting is our business as soldiers, how can we let the people go to death, but if the old man can help us get some wooden ladders to help climb the wall, or some things to cover the arrows, it will be greatly beneficial to attack the palace." ”

The old man raised his fist and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" Isn't that easy? There are wooden ladders in every house, are there things to block arrows, and are the door panels made? ”

Hou Dabiao was overjoyed and said: "Cheng, Cheng, the door panel is the nemesis of the feather arrow." ”

The old man turned his head and shouted: "Fellow villagers, everyone should go home immediately, move the wooden ladder, unload the door panel, and help the military masters to attack the palace and catch the traitors, don't be stunned and move quickly, lest the thieves outside the city turn back and find trouble." ”

The people shouted, went home one after another, carried the door panel, ladder, and large table, and waited for it, and suddenly a small hill was piled up in the clearing. Hou Dabiao ordered someone to cut down a few bucket-thick locust trees near the left, and after removing the branches and leaves, the head was sharpened to make a knocking wood that hit the door; More than a dozen sturdy brocade-clothed guards rushed to the door of the palace with the door panel on their bodies, and hit the wood.

The arrows on the wall came like a drifting rain, and soon the door panel was full of densely nailed feather arrows, but the flag school bent down was unharmed, they carried the bumping wood up the steps, and slammed into the heavy gate of the palace fiercely, and the sound of bang bang resounded in the night sky.

The gate of the palace is extremely heavy, and there are seven or eight iron beams added to the back, and dozens of huge logs are on top of it, how can it be so easy to break open, but they can't be beaten by the Jinyi guard, no matter how strong they are, they will be knocked open sooner or later.

Zhang Qin, the new commander of the palace guards, was a little bottomless in his heart, especially when he saw many Jinyi Guard Banner Schools carrying wooden ladders tied to the wall against the door panel, he was also slightly surprised that he thought that Jinyi Wei would definitely not be able to attack him, but he still had some means to deal with these local methods, Zhang Qin calmly ordered: "Pour boiling oil, shoot rockets, and burn them." ”

A pot of boiling oil was poured down, and then the rocket was shot down, and the door panel suddenly burst into flames, and the flag school below had nowhere to hide, and was immediately engulfed in thick smoke and flames, and more than a dozen flag schools were not even able to escape and were burned alive by the fire, and the front of the palace suddenly became a sea of hellfire.

The same fate befell those who rushed under the fence to climb up the wooden ladder, and dozens of people were burned to charcoal.

Hou Dabiao was dumbfounded, the biggest nemesis of these door panels was the flame, and he didn't realize for a while that he had buried the lives of fifty or sixty brothers in vain, which was really regrettable. Hou Dabiao hurriedly ordered to stop the attack and think of another strategy, and the people who were watching from a distance were also panicked, and their eyes were moist.

However, it is not a lie that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, after a short period of discouragement, Hou Dabiao suddenly found that the soldiers in the city tower above the gate of the palace suddenly poured buckets of water down, extinguishing the flames rushing to the sky at the gate, Hou Dabiao immediately understood why.

"The gate is made of wood, and I'm afraid of fire, these dogs have exposed their weaknesses, you don't burn it, Lao Tzu will burn it for you." Hou Dabiao shouted.

The surrounding people suddenly realized, Hou Dabiao immediately ordered to immediately collect dry firewood and hay, the people helped together, bundles of firewood and hay were sent to the gate, and soon the palace guards were shocked to find that hundreds of brocade guards carried bundles of firewood and hay against the door panel and threw them on the steps of the gate, and ran away after throwing them, not allowing the opportunity to pour fire oil on the door panel. After a while, the flames rose again in front of the palace gate, and the flames rose for several feet, almost burning to the gatehouse on the gatehouse.

Zhang Qin loudly ordered to quickly get water to extinguish it, and the water dragon team of the palace was also mobilized, standing on the walls on both sides and watering downwards. After a few back and forth, the heavy palace gate was burned into a recess half a foot, which was originally a palace gate with copper nails and red lacquer, but at this moment it became black and couldn't bear to look at it directly.

Zhang Qin knew that if this continued, the gate would not be able to be saved, and he had to hurry up to prepare for the upcoming hand-to-hand combat, so he hurriedly ordered someone to report to the king of Anhua, requesting additional manpower to prepare to repel the attacking Jinyi Guards head-on, after all, his own number still has an advantage, if it is not for the fear of the Jinyi Guard's firearms, there is no need to take a defensive position at all.

……

When the gate of the palace was in full swing, Song Nan and Wang Yong led fifty guards to quietly leave the front door and go around to the rear of the palace.

Song Nan knew that the inner wall in the north was the most difficult place to break through, but Song Nan still chose to break through from here, first, this place was far away from the front door, and once the fight started, the guards would not be able to dispatch support in time; Second, because the inner walls are tightly fortified, they do not need too many manpower, which is the key to doing the opposite, and the more difficult it is to break through, the more people will be caught off guard.

Dozens of long ropes hooked on the outer wall of the city, a group of people climbed on the outer wall like monkeys, and looked into the palace, it can be seen that the whole palace is as bright as day, and there are panicked and running figures everywhere, and there seems to be a noisy cry in the distance, and the palace is in chaos.

The skyrocketing fire at the front door is eye-catching, Song Nan nodded secretly, it seems that Hou Dabiao began to set fire to the door in order to cause huge pressure, Song Nan knows that it takes a lot of time to burn the door of the mansion with fire, and the next hand-to-hand combat may not be able to win, the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be, but the momentum caused is very scary, if most of the palace guards who can be attracted go to the front door to resist the enemy, it is very beneficial to themselves.

The inner wall dozens of steps away is also brightly lit, and there are wind lamps every few zhang high, and the guards at the head of the wall are busy coming and going, carrying bags of materials down, Song Nan knows that this is to transport bows, arrows, fire oil and other materials to the gate to defend against the enemy.

The good news is that they were worried that they would be found as soon as they entered the outer wall, but now it seems that the gang is so noisy and noisy that they don't even notice that dozens of people are watching them at the head of the outer wall dozens of paces away; The bad news is that there are a lot of people at the head of the interior wall, and at a glance it looks like at least four or five hundred people are busy, and there are many people on the other side of the interior wall.

In any case, you can't always lie on the wall full of thorns and porcelain, looking for an opportunity, everyone slipped down from the wall, Song Nan slowly moved his body to the west along the dark shadow in the corner of the wall, when he found that a section of the inner wall was empty, and the materials that wanted to come here had been emptied, and the guards on both sides of the left were still dozens of steps away, Song Nan decisively ordered to rush through the open space in the middle, and came to the root of the inner wall without danger.

Wang Yong whispered in Song Nan's ear and asked, "My lord, it seems that there are a lot of people at the head of the inner wall, and if you fight, it will be quite alarming, and you don't have a good chance of winning." ”

Song Nan said in a low voice: "We are wearing the clothes of the palace guards, we can swagger and pretend, you climb up and take a look, if someone is detected, you can cover us." ”

Wang Yong nodded, tightened his waist, listened to it for a while, and made sure that there were only voices in the distance on both sides, so he threw the rope to hook the wall and climbed up in three steps and two steps, just poked his head out to look left and right, and suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, a guard leader was climbing the inner wall along the stone steps, and both sides were stunned by each other's eyes.

The leader of the guard reacted and was about to open his mouth and shout, Wang Yong stretched out his hand and borrowed the power of the rope, his body flew in the air like a big bird, the cold light flashed in his hand, and a dagger flew out of his hand and stabbed into the guard's mouth, and forcibly pinched the shout in half, and when he landed, his arm choked the guard's head and neck and twisted violently, and the guard's head and neck were broken with a sound, and he collapsed softly on the side of the stone steps.

But this short shout still attracted the sideways glances of dozens of guards who were busy carrying dozens of paces away, and one of them shouted: "What's wrong? ”

Wang Yong said: "Damn, it seems to have been bitten by a snake." ”

"Snakes? Where did the snake come from, you drank too much. The man wondered.

Wang Yong secretly scolded himself for not being quick enough, and hurriedly said: "Xu is not a snake, maybe the brick is bruised, in short, his hands are bleeding." ”

The man shouted: "Brother, be content, shout at the slightest bruise, the fight is inextricable, we will all go to eat the knife in a while, save your strength and cry your father and mother." ”

Wang Yong said twice, and a group of guards in the distance turned their heads to ignore him, each busy carrying supplies; Wang Yong breathed a sigh of relief, and learned two cat meows under the wall, and after a while, dozens of ropes were thrown up silently, and after a while, a head came out of the brush.
