Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Cui Boyuan was so angry and resentful at being so humiliated by Zhang Xun. How could he endure it?  While cursing and greeting Zhang Xun's relatives, he sternly ordered to the left and right: "What are you doing, why don't I attack the city!"

    Thinking that he was also a fierce general under Yin Ziqi, he was unexpectedly hit by an arrow from Zhang Xun. If he couldn't retaliate with tooth for tooth and blood for blood, how would he be able to walk in the army and order the soldiers in the future?

    "General, this Xun clearly wants to anger us and profit from the chaos. You must think twice!" An adjutant was worried that Cui Boyuan would be used by Zhang Xun to do something detrimental to the army, so he was busy admonishing.  Tang people have always been cunning, so Zhang Xun must have had an ulterior motive for doing this.

    Cui Boyuan glared at the general and said, "If he really thought so, I would have followed his wishes! I just thought he had some talent before, so I tried to persuade him nicely. But who knew this?  How dare you hurt me in revenge! No need to say more, attack the city fiercely. After the city is broken, no one in the city will be left alive!"

    Cui Boyuan stared at Zhang Xun at the top of the city viciously and clenched his fists fiercely.

    Anyone who dares to offend him will die, everyone will die!

    "Hurry up, hurry up, keep up with me!" Nan Jiyun frowned and whispered to the soldiers around him, looking quite nervous.  Now Mr. Zhang is dragging the rebels at the top of the city. He must get out of the city as quickly as possible to deal a blow to the rebels.

    "Okay, general, it's tied up!" A soldier tugged on the hemp rope tied to the bamboo basket and happily reported to Nan Jiyunhui.

    "You kid, please keep your voice down, do you want the rebels to hear it?" Nan Jiyun glanced at the soldier angrily, walked up to the bamboo basket and asked, "Are you sure this is okay?"

    The soldier patted his chest as a defense and said: "Don't worry, General Nan. I can't guarantee that the other problems are small, but this rope is definitely strong enough. Let alone one person, there will be no problem even if two people ride at the same time.  .¡±

    Nan Jiyun nodded and said: "You will put us down like this later. If I haven't sent a signal after an hour, you will cut off the rope!"

    The soldier murmured: "But, but, you"

    Nan Jiyun slapped him hard on the head and said: "What are you talking about? I already said that now that the rebels have surrounded the city, everyone must focus on the overall situation. It doesn't matter if a few people are sacrificed. If the rebels are allowed to attack,  Those who enter the city are the real sinners.¡±

    Seeing the soldier lowering his head, Nan Jiyun sighed and said, "Don't be too pessimistic. After all, the rebels are currently careless and may not be able to withstand my full blow. But if I have something  Unexpectedly, please remember to me that you must live well and guard Suiyang City for me!"

    After saying that, Nan Jiyun didn't wait for the soldiers to say anything, and jumped into the special bamboo basket that was as tall as a person.

    "Let it go!"

    A smile appeared at the corner of Nan Jiyun's mouth, but it looked so bright in the misty night

    There is a moat under Suiyang City, but there is no water in the moat at this time.

    Nan Jiyun and two hundred soldiers, armed with Mo knives, hooks and crossbows, descended from the top of the city in bamboo baskets. At this time, they happened to fall into the moat protecting the city.

    "Keep your voices down and follow me!" Nan Jiyun climbed up the trench and drew out his sword, lowered his waist and leaned forward.

    With the bright torches in front of the rebel formation, Nan Jiyun could clearly see the rebels' layout.

    Now Yin Ziqi divided the 30,000 rebel soldiers into four groups, each with a general to capture one gate.

    And now the general leading the army at the east gate is the famous Yang Chaozong in the rebel formation.

    Yang Chaozong had 5,000 soldiers under his command. Among the four city gate siege armies, the manpower was allocated the least. But in fact, this army was the main force in the siege, because there were mountains of sandbags behind them.  , cattail bags.

    There is no doubt that Yang Chaozong planned to fill in the trench and then build a ladder to attack the city by force.

    This method is obviously more practical than building a weirway or using a car to attack the city.  Although the loss of siege will be relatively large, it can save a lot of time.

    And what the rebels lack most right now is time.

    Nan Jiyun took a deep breath and signaled his soldiers to crawl on the ground and not make any sound.

    Yang Chaozong seemed to be arguing with a Hu general, but no result was reached for the time being.  After a long time, Yang Chaozong waved his arms angrily and turned away, and then the soldiers who were waiting on the spot picked up the cattail bags and ran towards the trench.

    Nan Jiyun clenched his fists and quietly waited for that moment to arrive.

    One hundred steps, eighty steps, fifty steps

    Gradually, the rebels were only thirty steps away from themselves. At this time, the soldiers in the front row seemed to notice something.He stopped warily.

    Nan Jiyun knew that he could not wait any longer, and stood up with a loud shout: "Brothers, kill them and fight them!"

    After Nan Jiyun gave an order, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were originally prostrate on the grass stood up and rushed towards the rebels who were dozens of steps away and were carrying cattail bags and sandbags with their swords and spears.

    Those rebels were carrying heavy loads and had no combat power at all. When they saw hundreds of Tang soldiers suddenly rushing out of the darkness, they thought they had seen a ghost, and they all dropped their cattail bags and sandbags and ran away.

    But the soldiers led by Nan Jiyun are all elites in Suiyang City. How can these rebels escape?  They only took a few steps before they caught up with the clumsy rebels and slashed their heads with a knife.

    The long knife penetrated the flesh and instantly opened a large gash in the rebel's back.  At this time, the Tang army no longer struggled with these seriously injured rebel soldiers and continued to find their next prey.

    The biggest cause of death of soldiers on the battlefield is often not direct death, but death from severe injuries and excessive blood loss.

    They are all extremely experienced veterans and there is no need to waste their energy on a group of people who have been sentenced to death.

    After a round of killing, more than 200 rebel soldiers had died under the swords of the Tang army¡¯s elite. The screams of killing also attracted Yang Chaozong¡¯s attention.  Yang Chaozong, the commander-in-chief of the East Gate, had already noticed the changes here.

    In the dark night, the elite suddenly killed hundreds of Tang soldiers armed with sophisticated ordnance!

    This was definitely something Yang Chaozong had not expected.  When he first discussed with Yin Ziqi, the latter only told him that there was no need to worry about the Tang Dynasty's counterattack, and he only needed to be prepared to climb the city, and Yin Ziqi would do the rest of the things to attract defense.

    But what is going on?  Hundreds of Tang soldiers were killed in the dark night, but they encountered the soldiers they led who only wanted to fill the trenches and were unprepared for the surprise attack!

    The appearance of Tang Jun was too sudden, as if falling from the sky, and it was completely overwhelming.

    Yang Chaozong suddenly glanced at the approaching Hu general Guluze, smiled coldly and with disdain, then drew out his saber and shouted: "Don't panic, draw your saber to face the enemy!"

    Although the people of the Tang Dynasty had excellent armor and weapons, they only had a few hundred soldiers after all. Even if their soldiers were incompetent, there were only 5,000 soldiers. The ratio was almost one to ten. If they could not win again, Yang Chaozong would have no choice but to cut his neck and commit suicide.  .

    In order to control the situation as quickly as possible, Yang Chaozong took the lead and rushed forward. His leading the way more or less inspired the morale of the soldiers. However, within half a stick of incense, the soldiers who had fled in panic gathered in front of Yang Chaozong.  Side, regroup and regroup.

    An excellent general can play an incredible role in a battle. One of the most important points is to unite the morale of the army.

    Yang Chaozong is obviously such a general.

    "Draw your sword and face the enemy! Hit one out of ten. If you can't beat them again, how can you still have the nerve to say that you are men?"

    Yang Chaozong didn't say much. He picked up his sword and stepped forward quickly.

    No matter how much you say or comment on the battlefield, it is all in vain. In the end, the fight is still with the knife.

    Whoever has a sharp knife is the rule; whoever has a sharp knife is justice

    After a battle, hundreds of corpses were scattered on the plain outside the east city of Suiyang City.

    Some of the dead soldiers were rebels and some were Tang people. At this moment, all of them, without exception, were lying quietly on the grass without making a sound.

    At this moment, they are no longer enemies, and they no longer have to fight for the so-called morality that they don't even know is right or wrong.

    At this moment, although their bodies are dead, their souls are free

    On the upper floor of Suiyang City, Zhang Xun frowned and looked at Nan Jiyun who had been stabbed several times, but he hesitated to speak.

    ¡°My guess was indeed correct. The rebels¡¯ key formations on the remaining three sides were actually to attract their attention. Their actual purpose was to capture the East City.  Fortunately, Nan Jiyun led more than 200 dead soldiers to fall from the city tower and fight to the death with the rebels, blocking the rebels' move to fill the trenches.

    Although they appeared unexpectedly in front of the rebels and had a certain advantage at first, after all, the rebels had an absolute advantage in numbers. When the rebels all calmed down, the battle entered a tug-of-war. After that, more and more soldiers  He fell down and never got up again.

    In the end, Nan Jiyun was stabbed several times. With the soldiers fighting each other desperately, he led more than ten people back to the city, but he couldn't stop wailing.

    Having spent a long time with Nan Jiyun, I certainly know why he is crying.  Those are all the brothers he trained with his own hands. Even if he said they were gone, they would be gone for a while.

    ps: This move is recorded in real history. I have to admire Nan Jiyun¡¯s bravery and Zhang Xun¡¯s quick wit.
