Chapter 378: Raid in the Rain

Li 9zhou was wearing a straw raincoat and looked up at the heavy rain in the sky, and his mood couldn't be better.

The time is not good, and it cannot be forced to change by manpower.

Suddenly, this heavy rain started. It has not been long since it has been, but as time goes by, if the heavy rain falls for a few days, it will be impossible to fight within at least ten days and half a month, and the muddy roads will make it difficult for the army to move forward.

Guo Ziyi, Li Guangbi, Liu Wei, Sun Shouyi and others all wore straw raincoats and fought behind Li 9zhou, and everyone was in a bad mood.

Li Guangbi sighed: "It seems that this day is not with me."

Li 9zhou said: "I hope this rain is only temporary. If it rains heavily, the plan to conquer Yecheng may have been delayed for a long time, and the rebels have been fully prepared."

Whether An Qingxu was taking advantage of the heavy rain to prepare for resistance or to run away, it was not good news for Li 9zhou.

Li 9zhou looked at Yecheng, and the soldiers of the rebels were wearing straw raincoats and holding spears, trembling in the rain, asking, "What time is it now?"

"Report to the coach, it's just after the hour, and it's going to be dark in another hour!"

Li 9zhou looked up at the sky, and a bold plan emerged in his mind - to launch a strong attack while the rain was not too much.

After thinking for a moment, he asked Li Guangbi: "In one hour, prepare for one shot and attack Yecheng tonight."

Li Guangbi was stunned and said with some concern: "It is extremely difficult for the coach to attack the city in the rain. Should he consider it again?"

Li 9zhou shook his head and said, "There is no constant force in the army and the water is no constant form. On the battlefield, the plan cannot keep up with changes. If we stick to the rules and make a dull tactic, it will not only miss the opportunity for war, but may also be seized by the enemy. This heavy rain has temporarily put our previous plan on hold and the attack is blocked, but this is also a chance. Although it is a bit risky, it is worth it. On such a rainy day, the rebels may also breathe a sigh of relief and relax their vigilance. Tonight is the best time for us to launch an attack. If we wait until tomorrow, it will be even worse to attack."

Li Guangbi felt it made sense and said, "Abide by the order!"

After the order was given, the Tang army began to prepare, and the military camp rushed to rebel. The soldiers wiped and sorted out their armor and equipment. Some of the weapons were dull and needed to be polished. They were sharp and killed. Li Guangbi counted the soldiers who assaulted tonight.

The heavy rain still did not stop, drizzling.

Li Guangbi had gathered 10,000 soldiers, full of wine and food, and all of them were ready for weapons, armor, and war horses. Everyone was wearing straw raincoats and waiting for orders.

Li 9zhou stood in the big tent, spreading his arms and letting his personal soldiers put their clothes on him.

"Master, be prepared, the soldiers can set off at any time." Li Guangbi walked into the tent to report, saw Li 9zhou like this, frowned and said, "Is the coach going to go in person?"

Li 9zhou said: "The sneak attack tonight is crucial, I want to go in person."

"Yes!" Li Guangbi shook his head and said nothing.

In Yecheng, people were worried that the Tang army would attack at any time, so people were patrolling and guarding day and night.

In order not to attract the attention of the rebels, the Tang army changed into a black armor, all of which were hiking, silently.

It was pitch black and the visibility was too low. The rebels could not notice it at all, and they did not expect the Tang army to come and attack in the heavy rain.

In the pouring rain, granular raindrops of soybeans kept falling from the sky and hitting the Tang army soldiers. Even wearing straw raincoats and helmets, a small amount of rain could penetrate into the armor inside.

1 Everything is going quietly, the sound of raining is covering up the insignificant sound and the cruelty that is about to come.

In the hazy night, Li 9zhou took out the bow and arrow and pulled the strings and shot it out. Soon he heard a scream. He put away the bow and arrow, pulled out his sword and shouted: "Run, kill!"

"kill……"

The sound resounded through the sky, from silent to sudden huge momentum like thunder, only in the blink of an eye.

The soldiers of the Tang army made huge shouts and used the ladder to attack Yecheng.

An Qingxu was still sleeping soundly in the camp. He heard the sound and hurriedly got up to check.

Only when he heard screams from the head of the city, An Qingxu was shocked and knew that the war had arrived at the head of the city.

The massacre officially began. Because of heavy rain, the rebels' defenses were slightly relaxed for a little while. The soldiers of the Tang army quickly climbed to the top of the city and began to kill.

The rebel soldiers had no time to escape, and they had no time to gather and resist. The bodies of the rebels fell to the ground and blood flowed non-stop.

The raid went smoothly. No one among the rebels would think that the Tang army would launch the raid at this time without any preparation.

After discovering that the rebel governor Xue Song, the first thing he did was to run out of the tent immediately, untied the reins of the war horse in front of the tent, and ran away to the east, and could only escape with his life.

Faced with this situation, Xue Song is a veteran. He has run away countless times before, so his observation of the situation is still very accurate.

To gather the troops and flee under such circumstances is tantamount to seeking death.

After killing a group of rebels, the other rebels were already panicked. Seeing that the situation had stabilized, the walls of Yecheng were occupied by the Tang army. Li 9zhou wiped the blood from his face and shouted: "Snatch the city gate!"

The Tang army quickly seized the city gate, welcomed tens of thousands of troops outside the city, and fought with the rebels in Yecheng.

An Qingxu was already scared and his heartbroken at this time. He never expected that the Tang army would approach quietly and launch a surprise attack under such heavy rain. This bold and unconventional method of fighting was something he could never imagine. His mind was blank now. Could it be that he would really die here today?

Heavy rain is sometimes hateful. It makes the road muddy and makes people who want to go out in a bad mood. In short, it can hinder many things, but it can also cover up a lot of things, and sin and killing can be covered up by it.

For the rebels, this heavy rain not only made the Tang army successfully raided, but also made it more difficult for them to escape.

Most of the rebels knew that it was almost impossible to escape from Yecheng in such heavy rain. Even if they escaped, the muddy roads would affect the speed of their advancement, and they would soon be caught up by the Tang army.

Therefore, the rebels in the city had no way to advance and retreat, so they had to resist stubbornly.

The war at the city wall and the city gate had ended, and the rebels were forced to retreat into the city step by step.
