Chapter 106: Ningxia City Breaks Down

"Baguio, just sleep here. I'll come as soon as I go."

Being called so by Yang Ning, Liu Biyao couldn't help but blush. But she didn't refute. She just said: "What are you going to do?"

Yang Ning smiled slightly and said, "Go and avenge you."

Yang Ning left the camp. Zhang Weinian and other guards were already waiting. Yang Ning ordered two of them to stay outside his camp and led Zhang Weinian and another guard to the Chinese military tent.

In order to prevent the rebels at the top of the city from becoming alert, except for the torches around the camp, there was no firelight anywhere in the camp. Everything was hidden in darkness.

"Have everything been arranged?" Yang Ning asked quietly when she saw Ma Gui.

Ma Gui nodded and said: "Get ready. The brothers entering the city will be led by Dayong himself. There are only about 300 people. They are all good soldiers. Their main task is to attack the three city gate defenders and just open the city gate quietly. Therefore. There is no need to have too many people. It is three o'clock in the afternoon. The time for the attack is scheduled to be at Yin hour. I have sent someone to notify Governor Ye and Deputy General Xiao."

"Okay. Then let's set off." Yang Ning said immediately.

More than three hundred warriors were already ready to go. They were all dressed in black night clothes and their faces were covered with black scarves. Only the pairs of shining eyes showed that they were a group of brave men.

"Brothers, I won't say any more nonsense. This entry into the city is a narrow escape. But as long as you survive, I, Ma Gui, will definitely not be stingy with rewards. Everyone will be promoted to the third level. Let's go." Ma Gui stood in front of this group of people. .In a low voice, with a few simple words, and with a final wave of his hand.

Yang Ning, two guards, and Chang Dayong walked in front. A group of black shadows followed silently behind. The entire queue was silent.

When Yang Ning and Liu Biyao went down the mountain, they had already deliberately memorized the path to the cave. Although it was dark at the moment, Yang Ning used his extraordinary memory to find the hidden cave entrance.

After entering the innermost cave, Yang Ning stepped forward and lifted up the stone slab of the secret passage. He said to Chang Dayong: "This is it. I will lead the way. Everyone will follow." After that, Yang Ning was about to go down first.

"Slow down." Chang Dayong grabbed Yang Ning and said with a smile: "Eunuch Yang, Ma Shuai ordered you to lead the way here. Just go back with the two guard brothers. There is no need to enter the city."

Yang Ning was startled and said with a smile: "Why? Are you afraid that I will hinder your actions?"

Chang Dayong scratched his scalp and said, "Hey, I'm mainly worried that you might be in danger. Entering the city tonight must be extremely dangerous."

Yang Ning curled his lips and said: "Wouldn't it be more dangerous for me to enter the city alone during the day? Okay, stop talking nonsense. You are not familiar with the situation at the exit. At most, I will stay in a hidden place after entering the city and not come out." End. Regardless of Chang Dayong's objections, Yang Ning went down the secret passage first. Zhang Weinian and another guard followed closely. Chang Dayong had no choice but to wave his hand back. Yang Ning also followed down the secret passage first.

After groping along the way, Yang Ning first came to the back of the bookcase in the secret room of Liu Dongshang's military mansion and stopped. There was a glimmer of light there.

Seeing Yang Ning stop, Zhang Weinian and the Ming army soldiers who followed him also stopped. The secret passage was a bit narrow, and the soldiers lined up at most two people in a long row.

Yang Ning listened to the movement outside. There was silence. After a while, Yang Ning confirmed that there was no one outside, and then she gently reached out and pushed open the secret door of the bookcase. The tentacles of the secret door were still warm.

As soon as the secret door was pushed open, a burst of hot and choking air rushed into his face. Yang Ning's nose felt itchy and uncomfortable. She wanted to cough, so she hurriedly covered her mouth.

After regaining his composure, Yang Ning looked around carefully with the help of the weak moonlight. He saw that everything was in a mess caused by the fire. Most of the houses in the entire General Military Mansion had been destroyed by the fire. The only ones that survived were broken walls. .It was terrible. The air around me exuded a choking smell.

Zhang Weinian and his fellow guards first scouted the General Military Mansion and its surroundings under Yang Ning's instructions. After confirming that there were no rebel soldiers, Chang Dayong ordered the soldiers to file out of the secret passage.

The back garden of the General Military Mansion has been burned into an open space, which can accommodate these three hundred soldiers.

Chang Dayong looked at the sky and whispered to the two people behind him: "The time is coming. According to the original plan, you two will lead one way each and sneak to the east and west gates respectively. When the time comes, take action immediately. Be careful on the road. Don’t alert the rebels.”

The two men agreed in unison, waved their hands respectively, and each led a group of soldiers to the east-west direction and quietly left the general military mansion.

"Eunuch Yang, just stay here. If things go wrong, retreat into the secret passage with the two guard brothers." Chang Dayong said to Yang Ning.

"Okay. You have to be careful yourself," Yang Ning warned.

Chang Dayong chuckled and led the remaining one hundred soldiers into the night quietly.

But Yang Ning didn't intend to run around. There would be a big chaos in the city tonight. It would be too dangerous to go out and run around. As for dangerous things, Yang Ning's principle is not to do it if he can't do it.

After waiting in the dark night of the General Military Mansion for nearly an hour, earth-shattering shouts of killing came from the east, west, and south gates. Zhang Weinian looked at the sky and said to Yang Ning, "Let's take action."

Yang Ning nodded solemnly and said: "The key lies in whether the city gate can be opened. If it fails, these three hundred people will probably be wiped out."

What happened later proved that Yang Ning's worries at the moment were completely unnecessary. After a lot of turmoil in the city of Ningxia during the day, it finally calmed down. Kuai Bai and his son won a big victory and completely controlled the city defense. But they were regular. The ability and ability to fight and defend the city are really limited. There are not many troops deployed at the most critical city gate.

The three hundred soldiers who entered the city were elite soldiers who had been selected and selected from the Ming army. Most of them were brave men who had survived several battles in Xuanping Fort. They almost at the same time An attack was launched on three city gates.

But Chang Dayong personally led his troops to attack the south gate. About a hundred of them suddenly rushed out of the darkness and killed the rebels guarding the south gate. They were caught off guard. The defenders at the city gate and nearby walls suddenly fell into chaos. .Exclaimed again and again.

"They want to get close to the city gate. Stop him..."

In the darkness, a knowledgeable rebel general on the city wall shouted loudly. But before he could finish his words, a masked Ming soldier opened his bow and set an arrow. An arrow shot like a meteor, accurately hitting the general's open mouth. The arrow pierced through the back of his head. The general immediately fell on his back and made no sound.

The Ming army was like wolves and tigers. They were like the dark god of death from hell. The sharp swords in their hands were frantically harvesting the lives of the rebels at the city gate.

There were many people among the rebels who were as bright-minded as this general. They quickly reacted and understood that only a small group of Ming troops had sneaked into the city. The purpose was to open the city gate and let the large army outside the city enter. They resisted with all their strength and shouted loudly. The companions resisted and called for "reinforcements". But helplessly, most of the rebels were frightened out of their wits by the sudden attack of the Ming army. They were all dizzy. In addition, the Ming army all shouted, "The city is broken. It is broken." ". They were even more panicked after hearing this. They had already lost their will to fight.

Rebels kept coming for reinforcements on the distant city wall. At this time, the rebels near the city gate had been killed and dispersed. Chang Dayong led some people to resist the rebels who kept coming. When he had time, he shouted behind him: "Open up." City gate."

Several Ming soldiers immediately rushed into the city gate. But immediately, they came out again, each carrying a sack. They shouted to Chang Dayong: "General, these bastards have piled sacks behind the city gate. We must Only by moving away can the city gate be opened."

Chang Dayong was anxious after hearing this. He shouted wildly: "There are dozens more people here. Remove the sacks as soon as possible. Let me hold back the rest."

At this moment, it was immediately obvious that this group of elite Ming troops were well-trained. There was no need to discuss it. It seemed to be an agreement. Immediately, twenty or thirty people sheathed their swords at the same time, turned around and ran towards the city gate. The remaining soldiers immediately joined in. the gap they left.

"Kill me, brothers. Don't let them open the city gate. Otherwise we will be dead." A rebel who looked like a sentry shouted.

"Fuck your grandma." Chang Da bravely rushed to the front of the sentry officer. The sword whipped up a gust of wind. The sentry officer had no time to react. A head flew out, and blood rose into the sky. It drenched several nearby rebels.

Twenty or thirty people were reduced at once. The pressure on the Ming army increased greatly. The number of rebels increased. Although the Ming soldiers who entered the city were brave, casualties inevitably began to occur.

As soon as someone fell, someone immediately filled the gap, struggling to block the rebel attacks and buy time for the brothers who entered the city gate to carry sacks.

Dozens of soldiers at the city gate cave had already begun to quickly move the sacks out of the city gate cave. The sacks weighed seventy or eighty kilograms each. However, some Ming soldiers were so anxious that they grabbed one and threw it out of the city gate cave.

Chang Dayong flew up and down with a big sword. He was unstoppable. The rebels could hardly go two rounds under his hand. But a good man could not stand in large numbers. Chang Dayong faced the swords of seven or eight rebels at all times. His body was already injured. In several places, seeing more and more casualties among the brothers around him, Chang Dayong had to shout: "Back off. Retract."

Dozens of soldiers immediately retreated. The defensive formation immediately became dense. But the rebels immediately pressed forward. The swords of both sides were "ping-ping-pong-pong", as dense as exploding beans.

Finally, just when Chang Dayong and others were about to lose their strength, the sandbags in the city gate were finally emptied. The thick and tall south gate of Ningxia City was pushed open by the soldiers of the Ming army.

The sound of hoofbeats rumbled outside the city. The cavalry of the Ming Army, which had been waiting for a long time outside the range of the rebels' bows and arrows at the top of the city, began to urge their horses to charge. In the dark night, it was like a long black dragon, with billowing smoke and dust heading straight towards the south gate of Ningxia City. Come in.

Chang Dayong shouted to the rebels in front of him: "Fuck you, grandma. The city has been destroyed. You are still fighting here. Do you want to be trampled into a pulp together?"

The rebels had already seen the Ming army cavalry rolling in outside the city. Their men could not help but hesitate. The attacks were slowed down. Chang Dayong glared at this and said, "Hurry up and run for your life."

The rebel soldiers were scattered like birds and beasts with a "bomb".

Chang Dayong was so tired that he almost lost all strength. But he still tried his best to shout to the soldiers: "Get aside quickly."

Just when the last soldier had just given way to the city gate, the rolling Ming cavalry rushed into the city like a torrent. The rumble of hooves made the entire city of Ningxia tremble.

The south gate encountered some setbacks. The situation at the east and west gates was much smoother. Because the east and west gates were originally guarded by Yi Chengen and Tu Wenxiu respectively. There were no defensive measures such as sandbags blocking the gates. Therefore, the east and west gates were guarded. The two city gates were quickly opened by the Ming army who entered the city. The soldiers and horses of Ye Mengxiong and Xiao Ruxun immediately rushed into the city and started killing everywhere.

The three armies of the Ming Army entered the city in less than a quarter of an hour. They killed the rebels whenever they encountered them and set fire to them while killing them. They shouted words such as "the city is broken" in an attempt to create chaos. Due to the incident, Suddenly, and it was early in the morning, the rebels were on guard at the city gate and on the city wall. Most of the rebels were still sleeping soundly in the camp inside the city. By the time they woke up and reacted, the Ming army had already rushed into the camp. . They launched a massacre against the unarmed rebels. Although there were many rebels in number, they could not organize effective resistance at all. They were all running for their lives like headless flies, avoiding the pursuit of the Ming army.

For a time, the whole city of Ningxia was boiling. There were fires everywhere, lighting up the night sky of Ningxia City. There were shouts of death everywhere, awakening the people in the city from their sweet dreams.

To be honest, after a day of internal strife, Liu Dongshang's cronies were captured and killed by the people who worshiped him. The rebels' strength was greatly damaged. And more importantly, although many of Liu Dongshang's original subordinates were not They resisted and worshiped the father and son, but they all held their breath in their hearts. Now the Ming army descended from the sky and rushed into the city in the middle of the night. This group of people even lost their fighting spirit. Many of them were killed as soon as the Ming army arrived. He threw away his sword and gun, squatted on the ground with his head in his arms and surrendered. This reduced a lot of resistance from the Ming army and allowed the Ming army to break through the city faster.

After a fierce battle in the middle of the night, it finally dawned.

The enemy defenders on the top of the city have been eliminated. The rebels in the city have also been dispersed. Those who resisted tenaciously were chopped into pieces by the Ming army. Most of them surrendered obediently and were captured by the Ming army.

Ma Gui couldn't wait to lead the people into the city. After entering the city, he immediately went straight to Liu Dongshang's general military mansion in Nancheng.

Hearing Ma Gui's shouting, Yang Ning, Zhang Weinian and three others emerged from the ruins.

"Brother Yang, we succeeded." Ma Gui got off his horse and said to Yang Ning with excitement on his face.

Yang Ning smiled and said: "The enemy chief has not yet been crowned. It is not considered a success yet."

At this time, Pegasus from the primary school came to report: "The city head has been completely controlled by our army. The rebels in the city have basically been eliminated. Kuai Bai and Tu Wenxiu led their three thousand "Cangtou Army" remnants and retreated to their old nest in the West City. The mansion is still resisting and is now surrounded by the Ming army."

Yang Ning asked: "What about Kuai Chengen?"

The principal replied: "I didn't hear that he retreated into Kuai's house. After the east gate city was destroyed, his whereabouts are unknown."

The culprit who killed Liu Dongshang disappeared. Yang Ning's heart sank.

Ma Gui smiled and said: "Brother Yang, don't worry about him for now. Let's capture that evil boy first."

Yang Ning nodded. Everyone got on their horses and went straight to Kuaibai's mansion in Xicheng.

It was already dark at this time. At a glance, the city was in a mess. There were corpses and blood everywhere, as well as the remaining bricks and tiles burned black by the fire. There were Ming soldiers with weapons everywhere, smashing the doors of houses to search. Remaining enemy.

Yang Ning rode at the end. Looking at the messy scene around him, he couldn't help but sigh: War can only bring a so-called "victory" in a certain sense to one party, but it can only bring the entire human race and society. Trauma and disaster.

When everyone passed by a street entrance on horseback, Yang Ning saw several Ming soldiers in front of him interrogating a common man wearing dirty civilian clothes. This man was tall and fierce-looking. Yang Ning couldn't help but look more. He glanced at them, then didn't care, and just rode past these people.

Just as he was passing by these people on horseback, a harsh but familiar voice came to his ears. "Master Jun, you are really a commoner in this Ningxia city."

Yang Ning was startled. Huo reined in his horse and turned around. He shouted at the Ming soldiers: "He is Yi Cheng'en. Catch him."

The Ming soldiers couldn't help but be stunned. Before they could react, the fierce man's eyes flashed and he laughed strangely. He snatched the spear from a soldier's hand and swung it with his backhand. At the sound of wind, several Ming soldiers were swept to the ground by him.

"Gaga. It turns out you are the little eunuch Xu Chao brought into the city. I didn't expect to meet you here. Take your life." Kuai Cheng'en smiled strangely. He fiercely drew his gun and rushed towards Yang Ning. The momentum is very fierce.

Yang Ning couldn't help but was startled. He wanted to pull his horse and run away. But his riding skills were not good. In panic, he drove his horse towards Kuai Cheng'en.

Seeing that the spear in Kuai Chengen's hand was about to pierce Yang Ning, "You dare me!" he shouted. A big hand suddenly grabbed the barrel of the spear and took the spear aside. This was when Zhang Weinian turned around. He felt that because he had rushed too far when he returned to the horse, he was still some distance away when he came back. In desperation, he actually jumped off the horse's back and flew more than ten feet out of the air. He caught it in time. The spear was about to penetrate Yang Ning's body.

Yang Ning panicked and ran away. She broke out in a cold sweat.

When Yi Cheng'en saw that a good thing was ruined, he couldn't help but became furious. He tried to use his hands to stab Zhang Weinian.

Zhang Weinian landed on the ground, holding the tip of the spear with one hand. No matter how hard he tried, Kuai Chengen's expression remained unchanged. He even praised him: "You are a man of some strength."

Zhang Weinian's relaxed and unrestrained aura made Yang Ning envious and deeply regretted that he had not learned some kung fu from Fakong.

Yi Chengen tried his best but couldn't push the spear forward. He couldn't help but look at Zhang Weinian in surprise. Zhang Weinian smiled slightly and said, "I won't play with you anymore."

After saying that, I didn't see how hard he used it. The spear broke into two pieces with a "pop". Due to the huge inertia, Kuai Chengen was caught off guard and rushed towards Zhang Weinian.

Zhang Weinian's face flashed with murderous intent. He held the tip of the gun horizontally in his hand and was about to thrust it into Chi Chengen's throat. Yang Ning had been on full alert for a long time. When he saw this, he hurriedly shouted: "You must live."

At the critical moment, Zhang Weinian turned his hand away. The glistening spear tip passed by Kuai Chengen's neck, leaving a bloodstain. Zhang Weinian raised his left hand and slashed at Kuai Chengen with his sword. on the back of the head. Kuai Chengen fainted before he could fall to the ground.
