Chapter 171 Assassination of General Qin
That night.
More than ten ropes hang from the tower.
Led by Liu Bang, a total of more than a hundred rangers slipped down from the ropes. Finally, under the cover of night, they cautiously approached the Qin camp. Soon they arrived nearby. When they looked up and looked ahead, they saw more guards from the Qin camp.
As strict as you can get.
During the day, those rangers were in high spirits and felt that going in and out of the Qin camp was as easy and convenient as returning to their own homes.
At this time, seeing so many guards in the camp, many people felt intimidated and hesitant, wondering whether they should take the risk again.
If the Qin camp was ordinary, it would be okay to fight in. They could also repay the favor given to them by Zhang Er. But now, compared with repaying a favor and saving lives, the latter is obviously more important. Even if they come near the camp, no one would dare to say that they would fight in.
.
"Brother Liu, what should I do?"
At this time, a retainer asked Liu Bang.
He just said that he wanted to chop off the head of General Qin, but Liu Bang spoke loudest. If he gives in now, it will be very embarrassing. He thought for a while and said: "Which of you has a bow and arrow?"
"I!"
At this time, a doorman came out with a crossbow.
Ancient folk were only allowed to have bows, not crossbows. This was obviously a contraband, but in the eyes of the rangers, it was not a problem, as long as it could be used.
Liu Bang pointed to the front and said: "I've seen it. The defense here is the weakest. Shoot these guards later, and then rush over first. Do you see the tent in the distance? The biggest one must be that of the Qin army general.
, after we enter the military camp, we will first go to that tent to kill the Qin general and then set it on fire."
"This is a good plan!"
Others had no idea, and when they heard what he said, they all agreed.
"Do it!"
Liu Bang said again.
The retainer raised his crossbow and slowly approached in the dark night. However, he had just shot one person when the other guards quickly reacted and two shields were already blocking his sight.
"Enemy attack!"
Some soldiers shouted.
Then some soldiers beat the war drums.
Liu Bang was stunned.
All the rangers were stunned.
According to their thinking, it was so late at night that even if they shot several guards, the Qin army would not react so quickly. They had just killed one person now, and the entire military camp was instantly on alert.
It is not without reason that the Qin army was able to sweep through the three Jin Dynasties.
Such strict military discipline, strong discipline, and extremely fast response capabilities are definitely unmatched by the armies of the other six countries.
"Brother Liu, what should I do?"
Someone asked again.
"Run away!"
Liu Bang turned around and walked away, still the fastest one.
What else could he do now? If he didn't run away, he would just wait to die. He didn't want to die so miserably.
The other diners were stunned for a while and quickly tried to escape. Soon a row of arrows shot out from behind them, and more than ten diners were shot dead on the spot.
The rest ran away while fending off arrows.
But the men of Iron Eagle Rui Shi and the First Captain rushed out as fast as they could, picked up the swords in their hands and attacked these retainers.
"Fight!"
One of the doormen said.
As rangers, their strength is certainly not bad. They quickly cut down some of the surrounding soldiers and rushed out.
Of course, the Qin army had to continue the siege and not let anyone go.
"They are all rangers and have certain strength. They all retreat and attack with bows and crossbows."
Bai Zhong happened to come here and saw that the more than a hundred people were not weak in strength like ordinary soldiers, so he quickly thought of this.
No matter how strong the individual abilities of the rangers are, they are not as good as a uniform army.
As soon as the crossbow arrows were fired, they became confused.
In the end, only a dozen people were able to escape, including Liu Bang, who was the fastest runner.
They quickly grabbed the rope, quickly climbed back to the tower, and finally lay on the edge of the city wall, panting.
"Failed?"
Zhang Er couldn't see the light of the fire, but only saw these ten people coming back. The answer was obvious.
Tonight they provoke the Qin army, and tomorrow the Qin army will definitely attack in a large scale. He must also prepare a plan to escape tomorrow, otherwise he will die here.
Liu Bang first said: "It failed. The Qin army's defense was too strict. We were discovered before we entered and were hunted down. We are sorry for Zhang Jun."
Zhang Er shook his head and said: "It's God's will, that's all! You go down and rest."
Not only was he preparing how to escape, Liu Bang and the others were also thinking about how to escape tomorrow.
Liu Bang could think that Zhang Er should have planned an escape route. After all, his wife and children had been sent away in advance, so it was impossible for him to stick to Waihuang. As long as he stayed with Zhang Er tomorrow, there would be no problem.
"That's it."
He muttered in his mind.
——
"General, one hundred and seven people were killed, and the rest escaped."
Gengwu quickly counted the number of these rangers.
Ying Shu said: "There are so many rangers in a small Waihuang County. There are only more than a hundred people, and they dare to attack the camp late at night. Are they here to die?"
"It should be a certain person who has a group of followers in the city."
Bai Zhong seemed to have thought of something and said with a smile: "They may be here to kill me. As long as I die, you will definitely become a mess, so they are not here to attack the camp, but to assassinate. It's just that my brain is not so easy to be killed."
They cut it off."
"Since they have taken action, we will attack the city tomorrow."
"I don't believe that the Waihuang County Magistrate will defend the city. Captain Ying will take a detour to the east and capture him."
"Everyone, go back and rest."
He didn't take a small county seriously.
It's just dawn.
The war drums of the Qin army were beaten.
Bai Zhong was too lazy to let the Iron Eagle warriors go into battle. He just asked Zhang Tang to lead more than 4,000 people, prepare the ladders, and begin to attack the city.
The siege of the city began quickly.
But this time the attack on the city was not difficult at all. The soldiers of the Qin army quickly climbed to the tower and killed all the guards in Waihuang, even if they dropped their weapons and surrendered.
Zhang Er watched for a while on the tower, then gave in and asked someone to open the east gate and escape.
"Protect Mr. Zhang!"
Liu Bang rushed out at this time, kicked away a coachman who was trying to help Zhang Er drive the carriage, jumped on the carriage, and rode out of the city gate.
Seeing this scene, the remaining ten rangers all followed, supporting Zhang Er and rushing out of the city gate. In addition, there were more than a hundred Zhang Er's personal guards, who fled in the blink of an eye, taking the remaining Wai Huang.
The guard was abandoned.
"Zhang Jun, where are you going?"
Liu Bang asked.
"Northeast, go to Shanfu County."
When Zhang Er saw Liu Bang, he was suddenly moved to tears.
Yesterday was Liu Bang's most active assassination, and today it was Liu Bang who was most heroic in protecting himself and leaving. If he can escape this time, he will definitely make a fortune with Liu Bang when he comes back.
"Go to Shanfu County in the northeast!"
Liu Bang shouted and immediately changed direction and ran wildly, and the others could only keep up.
However, they had only gone a few miles when a row of sharp arrows suddenly shot out from in front of them.
"Fuck!"
Liu Bang quickly jumped under the carriage, not caring about the pain of falling to the ground.
Chapter completed!
