Chapter 182 Emergencies
With a sharp sound, a ball of fireworks flashed away. The Han army on the city had never seen this. It was strange that the people who changed the guard came.
"Here, what are you going to eat tonight?" asked a small leader of the Han army.
Yang Guangyi said with some disgust: "What else can I eat, just like before."
The little leader of the Han army sighed when he heard this: "Since the Zhou army has arrived, and so many new soldiers have been conquered, the food is getting worse every day."
Yang Guangyi: "Who said no? But having food is better than being hungry, just be content!"
Yang Guangyi had only been involved in the Han army for a few days. Because of his tall figure, he was appointed as a team leader. He was with more than a dozen brothers, and a few were with Liu Qingyi. In fact, he was familiar with the Han army.
"Hey, I'm leaving, I'll leave it to you here!"
"Okay, go back and eat more."
"You have to eat more. If you don't have oil or water, you will have to be hungry after a while."
Yang Guangyi smiled and nodded when he heard this, feeling that this person talked a little too much. Seeing that the person had left, Yang Guangyi's smile disappeared and was about to raise his hand.
"Oh, by the way, something flashed away just now, be careful."
Just as Yang Guangyi was about to order the action, the little leader suddenly turned around and scared the sunshine: "Ah, I understand, you guys go back to have a meal quickly, it will be cold in a while."
The little leader saw Yang Guangyi holding his fist, and Yang Guangyi wiped his sweat. It was early summer and the weather was not hot at night, but Yang Guangyi was still sweating coldly.
The little leader finally left, and Yang Guangyi's men took over the previous position. Yang Guangyi looked around, looked up at the city wall, and raised his hand to make a decisive order.
A few people came out of the darkness and walked slightly into the city gate. The people next to them attracted the attention of the Han army. The people behind them covered their mouths and wiped their necks, and they finished it in one go.
The city gate hole has been completely controlled, and there are still some people in the city. Yang Guangyi asked Liu Qingyi to set off the third fireworks, and Zhao Kuangyin in the distance saw it.
"Everyone is ready and attack the city gate!"
At the command of the Five Thousand Zhou Army, they rushed towards the east gate of Taigu. At this time, Yang Guangyi had already opened the door bolt, so he could only enter the city and then the two sides gathered together.
Guo Hao saw the third fireworks in the distance and knew that it had started there, so he also prepared here, intending to wait for Zhao Kuangyin to come and work with him inside and outside.
Zhao Kuangyin had already made the Zhou army move lighter, but there were too many 5,000 people and was soon discovered by the Han army.
After confirming that the enemy's attack was siege, the Han army quickly sent people to report, but when they ran to the city, he was greeted with a steel knife!
"Puff...you!"
The Han army who reported the news fell unwillingly. The defenders on the city were quite calm. It was very unfavorable to the attacking party at night. Moreover, they had 200 people here, so they should be able to hold on for a while.
"kill……"
What surprised the defenders on the city was that the Zhou army did not attack the city or brought any siege equipment, but rushed directly to the city gate. Should they break the city gate?
Scream...
A harsh sound rang out, and the expressions of the defenders on the city changed from strange to fear. They were very familiar with this sound. This was the sound of the city gate!
The city gate is open!
"Kill..."
The Han army continued to rush into the city, and the two hundred defenders on the city did not resist for long and were all killed by the Zhou army.
Zhao Kuangyin sent people to occupy the city gate and then ordered: "Let's head towards the north gate and open the north gate of Taigu!"
Guo Hao's internal and external cooperation was very successful. Five thousand soldiers successfully entered Taigu City. Guo Hao stood on the high platform and observed the situation in the city. There was nothing unusual yet.
...
The governor's mansion is having a banquet at this time.
"Come on, General Yang, Mr. Li, I wish you a cup!"
"Mr. Li is so polite."
Li Cungui was greeting Yang Gun. At this time, the three thousand Khitan troops were all in the city. They had just arrived during the day and planned to join forces to attack the Zhou army in one day.
"Report——The east gate is lost, a large number of Zhou troops enter the city, heading towards the north gate!"
Pa, Li Cungui's wine glass fell to the ground, and Yang Gun's wine was halfway through, and the rest could not be drunk.
"What's going on? How could the East Gate be lost!"
Li Cungui was furious. He realized that his arrangement was foolproof. Unexpectedly, Guo Hao easily broke through the East Gate. How did he do it?
"this……"
The soldiers who reported the news didn't know what was going on. At this time, Yang Gun put down his wine glass and stood up calmly and said, "Mr. Li, don't panic, how many of them are there?"
"According to the observation of subordinates, they have about four or five thousand people."
When Li Cungui heard four or five thousand people, he calmed down and smiled at each other. He no longer had the panic before, because there were four thousand people in Taigu City, five hundred each of the two gates, and three thousand people in the north gate, plus Yang Gun's three thousand people, and six thousand people in their north gate!
"Let's go and have a look!"
Yang Gun took the lead and walked out of the room. Li Cungui followed closely. Zhao Kuangyin brought people to the north city, but what he saw was a dense tent.
Zhao Kuangyin's heart sank. From the camp, it can be roughly seen that there were at least a few thousand people stationed here, and they are less than five thousand now. It is very likely that they are not opponents of the Han army when they face each other head-on.
What's even more terrifying is that he saw the Khitan's dome. Half of it was Khitan soldiers. They didn't know when the Khitan reinforcements arrived!
"Yuen Long, what should I do? There are so many people here, so let's fight or withdraw!"
Yang Guangyi found that the situation was wrong and wanted to remind Zhao Kuangyin that Zhao Kuangyin was also hesitating at this time. If he beat him, he might not be able to beat him. If he leaves, they would have been in vain these days.
Guo Hao was outside, and only saw the lights inside, but he didn't know what was going on. At this time, Zhao Kuangyin should have arrived at the north gate, so why didn't he hear the shouts of killing?
"Report... Report to the general, a large number of Khitan cavalry suddenly appeared from the city. Our east gate was attacked. There were many people in them, so we would soon be unable to withstand it!"
"What?"
Zhao Kuangyin and others' expressions suddenly changed. Once the east gate is taken, they have no way out. And there are a large number of defenders in the north gate, and the door will be a fierce battle!
"Yuen Long, go back. If the East Gate is lost, we will become a turtle in the jar!"
Zhao Kuangyin took a deep breath when he heard this, looked at the soldiers behind him, and shook his head: "It's too late, we only leave two hundred defenders. The Han army obviously wants to surround us. When we retreat, we will be attacked by the Han army from the front and back. For the current plan, we can only have a glimmer of life by taking the North Gate and welcoming the deputy envoy in!"
After Zhao Kuangyin finished speaking, everyone nodded. Guo Hao looked on the platform and suddenly heard the shouts of killing in the city. His intuition told him something was wrong.
"Is it started? The whole army is ready..."
Guo Hao ordered to prepare for the attack on the city. At this moment, a soldier suddenly ran over and saw that he was covered in wounds and rolled and crawled to the military camp.
"Deputy envoy, deputy envoy, a large number of Khitan soldiers appeared in the city. We were cut off from our retreat. General Zhao and the others were trapped in the city!"
"What!"
When Guo Hao heard this, he tried to force his arm, and he broke the armrest of the platform. Guo Hao tilted his body and fell down.
"Khitan soldiers... No wonder time doesn't match. It turns out that the Khitan reinforcements have arrived!"
Guo Hao quickly walked off the platform and quickly thought about countermeasures. Zhao Kuangyin and the five thousand soldiers were all in the city. He had to find a way to save them, but the north city was still strictly guarded, as if it was not affected at all.
"Siege!"
After thinking about it, Guo Hao finally made a decision and could not give up Zhao Kuangyin and the others no matter what. At this time, they were just starting out and they should be able to hold on for a while. If he attacked the city at this time, he should be able to disperse the Han army's forces.
Dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong...
The war drum sounded, and the Zhou army was ready. Guo Hao waved his hand and the four thousand Zhou army launched a charge towards the north gate of Taigu.
They really attacked the city this time, and there was no way to do that. Now it was too late to call people, so they could only rely on themselves.
The Zhou army was found siege, arrows, rolling wood, stones, and gold juice. Screams kept ringing, and Zhou army soldiers began to sacrifice in large numbers.
Seeing this scene, Guo Hao suddenly felt a little depressed in his chest.
"Li Hui!"
"I'm here!"
"Bring me the sky thunder and put two under the city gate to see if it can blow up the city gate!"
"yes!"
Guo Hao finally couldn't help it. He wanted to cast the "spell". At this time, he didn't know where to find a goose feather fan. Seeing Li Hui and others rushing over, he ignited the lead and waved his hand.
Coax, coax!
