Chapter 171: Assassinating General Qin
That night.
More than a dozen ropes hung down from the tower.
Led by Liu Bang, a total of more than 100 rangers, they slipped off the rope, and finally took advantage of the night to cautiously approach the Qin camp, and soon came to the vicinity, looked up and looked ahead, only to see the guards of the Qin camp, as strict as they were.
During the day, those rangers were in high spirits, and felt that entering and leaving the Qin camp was as easy and convenient as going back to their own homes.
At this time, seeing that there were so many guards in the camp, many people expressed their cowardice and hesitation, not knowing whether they should take another adventure.
If the Qin camp is a little more ordinary, it will be okay to kill it, and they can repay Zhang Er for their favors, but now compared with saving their lives, it is obviously the latter that is more important, even if they come to the vicinity of the camp, no one dares to say that they will kill them.
"Brother Liu, what should I do?"
At this time, a doorman asked Liu Bang.
Just now he said that he wanted to cut off General Qin's head, but Liu Bang said it the loudest, and if he confessed now, he would be very embarrassed, and he pondered for a while and said, "Which of you has a bow and arrow?" ”
"Me!"
At this time, a doorman came out with a crossbow.
In ancient times, only bows were allowed, not crossbows, which was obviously contraband, but in the eyes of their rangers, it was not a matter, and they could use it.
Liu Bang pointed to the front and said: "I've seen it, the defense here is the weakest, and then I'll shoot these guards, and then rush over first, do you see the tent in the distance?" The biggest one must be the commander of the Qin army, after we enter the barracks, we will first kill the tent, kill the Qin general first and then set it on fire. ”
"It's a good plan!"
The others had no idea, and when they heard him say this, they all agreed.
"Do it!"
Liu Bang said again.
The doorman raised his crossbow and slowly approached in the darkness, but no sooner had he shot one of the guards than the other guards reacted quickly, and the two shields were already in his sight.
"Enemy attack!"
There were soldiers shouting.
Then soldiers beat the drums of war.
Liu Bang was stunned.
All the rangers were stunned.
According to their thoughts, now at night, even if they shoot a few guards, the Qin army will not react so quickly, and now that they have only killed one person, the entire military camp will be on alert in an instant.
It is not without reason that the Qin army can sweep the Three Jins.
Such strict military discipline, such strong discipline, and extremely fast reaction ability are definitely beyond the possession of the armies of the other six countries.
"Brother Liu, what should I do?"
Someone asked again.
"Run!"
Liu Bang turned around and left, still the fastest one.
What else can I do now? If he doesn't run away, he just waits for death, and he doesn't want to die so badly.
The other doormen were stunned for a moment, and hurried to flee, when a volley of arrows shot from behind them, and more than a dozen doormen were shot on the spot.
The rest fled as they fended off the arrows.
However, the Iron Eagle Warrior and the First Lieutenant rushed out as fast as they could, raised the knife in their hands and killed these doormen.
"Fight!"
One of the doormen said.
As rangers, their strength is definitely not bad, and they quickly cut down some of the surrounding soldiers and rushed out.
Of course, the Qin army had to continue to surround and not let anyone go.
"They are all rangers, they have a certain strength, they all retreat and attack with bows and crossbows."
Bai Zhong happened to come here and saw that there were more than a hundred people, unlike ordinary soldiers, whose strength was not weak, and he quickly thought of this.
No matter how strong the individual ability of the ranger is, it is not as good as a uniform army.
As soon as the bolts were fired, they were in disarray.
In the end, only more than a dozen people were able to escape, including Liu Bang, who ran the fastest.
They hurriedly grabbed the rope, quickly climbed back to the castle tower, and finally lay on the edge of the city wall and gasped for breath.
"Failed?"
Zhang Er couldn't see the fire, only saw the more than a dozen people coming back, and the answer was obvious.
Tonight they provoked the Qin army, tomorrow the Qin army will definitely attack, he also has to be ready, the plan to escape tomorrow, otherwise he will die here.
Liu Bangxian said: "Failed, the defense of the Qin army was too strict, and before we could go in, we were discovered and hunted down, we are sorry for Zhang Jun." ”
Zhang Er shook his head and said, "This providence is like this, that's it!" Go down and rest. ”
Not only was he preparing how to escape, but Liu Bang and the others were also thinking about how to escape tomorrow.
Liu Bang can think that Zhang Er should plan an escape route, after all, his wife and children were sent away in advance, and it is impossible to stick to Waihuang, as long as he follows Zhang Er tomorrow, there will definitely be no problem.
"It was decided."
He muttered to himself.
——
"General, kill a hundred and seven people, and the rest have fled."
Geng Wu quickly counted the number of these rangers.
Ying Shu said: "In a small Waihuang County, there are so many rangers, only more than 100 people, and they dare to attack the camp late at night, are they here to send them to death?" ”
"It should be a certain character who has raised a group of doormen in the city."
Bai Zhong seemed to think of something, and said with a smile: "They may be here to kill me, as long as I die, you will definitely be in a mess, so it is not to attack the camp, but to assassinate, but my head, it is not so easy to be cut off by them." ”
"Since they've all done it, we'll attack the city tomorrow."
"I don't believe that the Waihuang County Commander will defend the city to the death, and Captain Ying will take a detour to the east and capture him back."
"Let's go back and rest."
He doesn't have a small county town in his sights.
It's just dawn.
The war drums of the Qin army were beaten.
Bai Zhong didn't bother to let the Iron Eagle Ruishi fight, but just asked Zhang Tang to lead more than 4,000 people, prepare the cloud ladder, and start attacking the city.
The siege war was soon fought.
But this time the siege of the city, there was no difficulty at all, the soldiers of the Qin army quickly climbed to the city tower, no matter what the guards of Wai Huang were, even if they dropped their weapons and surrendered, they were all killed.
Zhang Er watched the city tower for a while, and directly confessed, asking people to open the east gate and escape.
"Protect Zhang Jun!"
Liu Bang rushed out at this time, kicked away a coachman who was going to help Zhang Er catch the car, jumped on the carriage, and rode out of the city gate.
Seeing this scene, the remaining more than ten rangers all followed, supporting Zhang Er and rushing out of the city gate, in addition to more than a hundred Zhang Er's personal guards, they fled in the blink of an eye, abandoning the remaining outer yellow guards.
"Zhang Jun, where are you going?"
Liu Bang asked.
"Northeast, go to Shanfu County."
When Zhang Er saw Liu Bang, he was suddenly moved and wanted to cry.
Yesterday was Liu Bang's most active assassination, and today it was Liu Bang's most heroic defense to protect himself and leave, if he can escape this time, when he makes a comeback, he will definitely take Liu Bang to make a fortune.
"Go to Shan Father County in the northeast!"
Liu Bang shouted, immediately changed direction and ran wildly, and the others could only follow.
However, they had only walked a few miles when a row of sharp arrows suddenly came in front of them.
"it!"
Liu Bang hurriedly jumped under the carriage, not caring how painful it was to fall to the ground.
The horse pulling the cart let out a mournful roar and fell heavily to the ground, and the car behind it hit the ground under the action of inertia, and rolled several times before stopping.
