Chapter 549: Capture Beishui Pass
In the darkness of the night.
Ning Baizhi took more than thirty dragon guards, prostrate on the snow, and looked at the Beishui Pass in the distance.
At the gates of the city, there was a fence with spikes, the gate was closed, and dozens of soldiers gathered together to warm themselves around the bonfire lit on one side of the gate, and only two or three people were still doing their duty, with weapons in their hands, walking back and forth in front of the gate, keeping an eye on the situation outside the city.
"Madam, there are not many guards at the city gate, you can climb over the city wall by hand."
"There aren't many on the walls."
"They really regard Beishuiguan as a rear and safe base camp."
Ning Baizhi nodded, and was just about to get up with everyone, when she suddenly heard a chaotic sound of horses' hooves from far and near, and she hurriedly pressed her hand down.
A short time later, a patrol came rushing from the official road.
After talking to the Rongdi defenders at the city gate, the defenders at the city gate suddenly became alert after the Rongdi patrol entered the city.
"Madam, are they discovered?"
"I don't know."
"What are we going to do?"
"It was planned."
Ning Baizhi gritted her teeth, she didn't know why the defenders at the gate of the city suddenly became alert, could it really be that Xiangye led the team to ambush the grain transportation team, and was discovered by the Rong Di patrol and sent the news back?
After thinking about it, Ning Baizhi shook her head, it shouldn't be, it shouldn't have been discovered.
If discovered, reinforcements should be sent out of the city immediately instead of being on guard.
Taking a deep breath, Ning Baizhi decided to go with the original plan.
"Here, send things to the other side of the official road."
"Remember, open it farther away."
"Hmm."
An agile Long Wuwei took the sack handed over by Ning Baizhi, and slowly crossed the official road by himself through the night, reached the other side, and climbed far enough to untie the sack.
As soon as the mouth of the bag opened, seven or eight snow rabbits ran out of it in an instant.
After doing all this, the dragon warrior guard hurried back again.
The snow rabbit was caught by Ning Baizhi and others in the mountains earlier, this kind of rabbit lives in the snowy mountains, don't look at the long fat head and big ears, but the most alert, as soon as there is a wind and grass, immediately scatter the hooves and run, and everyone also wasted a lot of effort to catch it.
The snow rabbit in the sack was released on the other side of the official road, and after the snow rabbit came out, it immediately fled in all directions.
Ning Baizhi and the others continued to crawl, quietly waiting for the Rong Di guards at the city gate to find the snow rabbit running around.
Sure enough, a moment later, Rong Dibing, who was patrolling at the city gate, rubbed his eyes, and when he saw the snow rabbit, he made a surprise sound in his mouth, and caught up with many people.
For a time, outside the Beishui Pass, Rong Di was everywhere catching snow rabbits.
"Madame, get out of the way."
"Well, action."
Ning Baizhi's expression was solemn, and she took the lead in moving, prostrate on the ground, and slowly approached the city wall.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to divert some of the Rong Di guards, and the attention of the Rong Di guards who stayed at the city gate was all attracted by the Rong Di soldiers who caught the snow rabbit, and even had to say a few words, everyone quickly arrived at the bottom of the Beishui Pass city wall.
Throwing out the rope hook, reaching out and pulling, and kicking tightly, more than thirty people climbed the city wall with the help of ropes.
There are not many Rong Di soldiers on the city wall, all of them are attracted by the busy figure of Rong Di who catches the snow rabbit below, and seeing that the Rong Di soldiers below can't catch the snow rabbit, they can't wait to go down and catch it in person.
The crowd did not alarm them, and they went into the city without incident......
……
……
Chen Chao's side, quickly disposed of Rong Di's body, and hurriedly buried it on both sides of the official road with snow on the spot, it is now night, even if Rong Di's patrol passes by for a while, they will not find clues.
Looking at the clothes that were pulled from Rong Di's body, Chen Chao ordered everyone to quickly change them, and at the same time ordered:
"Hou Ji, go find a few people who can speak Rongdi."
"Okay."
After Hou Ji left, Meng Changge walked up, frowned and asked Chen Chao:
"Why don't you let me dress up as Rong Di too?"
"Look at you, you with thin arms and legs, where do you look like a Rongdi? Rong Di is all strong men, and he has a beard, do you have a beard? ”
Asked this, Meng Changge stopped speaking for a moment.
This trip intercepted and killed the grain transport team, so many people on their own side, they must not all be dressed up as Rong Di's grain transport team, and a large part of them need to follow the plan, under the cover of night and white cloaks, crawling on the snow and slowly approaching Beishuiguan.
Wait for Chen Chao and the others to disguise themselves as Rong Di to deceive and open the city gate, and everyone will go up together.
After everyone changed into Rong Di's clothes, the grain transport team set off immediately.
A few brothers who could speak Rong Di were at the front, and they could deal with Rong Di's interrogation at the city gate for a while.
Driving the carriage, creaking on the official road, he could already see Beishuiguan from a distance, Chen Chao deliberately reduced the speed of the convoy, and he had to wait for Meng Changge and the others who were in ambush on both sides of the official road to get close enough.
Everyone was nervously watching the situation ahead, and the crossbow was already on the bowstring.
Getting closer......
Everyone's hearts were beating faster and faster, and their faces were solemn.
At the gate of the city, several snow rabbits were skinned and roasted on the bonfire, and the fragrance lingered on the tip of everyone's noses.
Seeing the grain convoy approaching, the Rongdi guards at the gate of the city were no different.
In their eyes, this is the convoy that went to the front to deliver food back.
Chen Chao knew that it was the Rong Di skin on his body that had an effect.
Rong Di had already gotten up and knocked on the city gate, ready to release the grain team into the city.
Hou Ji and the others had already walked around the group of Rong Di soldiers who were surrounding the bonfire and roasting snow rabbits, and waited for the city gate to open, and then turned out this group of Rong Di.
Bang!
The city gate slowly opened, Chen Chaochang breathed a long sigh of relief, the most important thing in this mission is to deceive the city gate, as long as the city gate can be deceived open, the mission will be more than half successful.
"Do it!"
"Kill!"
Chen Chao instantly raised the crossbow hidden behind his back and shot at a Rong Di soldier, and with a bang, Rong Di fell to the ground and splashed a lot of snow stars.
This sudden sound of Han language finally woke up Rong Di at the city gate, but before they could draw their swords, they were cut by Hou Ji and others.
"Rush!"
In an instant, the large army led by Meng Changge, who was ambushed outside Beishui Pass, got up and rushed towards the city gate.
On the city wall, Rong Dibing found that something was wrong, and immediately collapsed his bow.
But in the face of the simultaneous influx of thousands of people, there is nothing to make up.
After shooting the bow, they subconsciously wanted to blow the horn of the bull to warn Rong Di in the city, but before they could blow, they were thrown off the city wall by the ghostly figure that appeared on the city wall and fell to death.
In a matter of moments, the gates had fallen.
"Enter the city, meet the enemy and kill the enemy! Leave no mouth alive! ”
Chen Chao pulled out the scimitar snatched from Rong Di's hand, led everyone, and took the lead in running into the city.
In an instant, five thousand people roared through the gates and rushed into the city.
When all the 5,000 had entered, the gates were closed with a bang.
……
Approaching dawn.
It took 5,000 people to finish the Rong Di in the entire Beishui Pass, and Chen Chao held the blood-dripping scimitar, stood on the wall of the Beishui Pass, and cut off Rong Di's banner with one sword.
A "Zhengyang" flag slowly rises against the rising sun.
