Not long after, the corps commander led his men to carry several bundles of ropes up to the top of the city.
"Change them all." Dakui gave the order, and all the soldiers, led by the team leader, started to work, because it was not very troublesome to just change the rope. After working for nearly half an hour, dozens of rolling logs nearby were replaced with long ropes one by one.
.
At this time, people kept bringing bricks and stones to the city. Da Kui suddenly had an idea and shouted: "You keep these people under your guard, and I will beat the one who is lazy."
The corps commander and all the soldiers accepted the order in unison. It happened that an elderly man was walking a little slower. The corps commander stepped up and whipped him: "You old man, hurry up!"
Upon seeing this, all the Yuan soldiers followed suit one after another. For a while, sticks and riding whips were flying, and the beatings made the people cry for their fathers and mothers. Although Dakui couldn't bear it, he had no other choice.
"Take them down to the city, and be sure to bring everything you need tonight." Dakui said with a high voice, his hands on his hips.
The corps commander did not dare to neglect, and led a group of Yuan soldiers to watch and suppress the people and went down to the city.
When the Yuan soldiers got off the city, Dakui turned around and walked northward along the horse path along the city wall. There were ten steps, one post, five steps and one sentry post on the city. How easy was it to get down to the city without anyone noticing?
"Hey, you two, come here." Dakui waved to the two Yuan soldiers. This place was in the dark, and there were only two Yuan soldiers on duty, so Dakui chose to go down to the city here.
The two Yuan soldiers looked at each other and saw that Dakui was a school captain, so they did not dare to neglect and came to Dakui.
Dakui looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. Then he waved, as if he had something confidential to explain. The two soldiers quickly bowed and stretched their heads back. Dakui whispered: "Is there anyone waiting here?"
A Yuan soldier stood up quickly and said, "No, no."
Seeing that the Yuan Bing retracted his head again, Dakui waved impatiently, and the Yuan Bing stretched out his head again.
Dakui put his hands lightly on the shoulders of the two Yuan soldiers, and continued softly: "I am a sentinel of the Ming army." As soon as he finished speaking, before the two Yuan soldiers could react, he put his hands on the sides of their heads and pressed them together.'
There was a muffled sound, and the heads of the two Yuan soldiers hit each other. They must have been exhausted.
Dakui grabbed the two Yuan soldiers by their shirts with both hands, and threw them both out of the city wall with a shake of his hands. The collision just now had made the two Yuan soldiers faint, and now he threw them under the city.
There wasn't even a scream.
It wasn't until two soft sounds of "Peng Peng" were heard from under the city wall that two Yuan soldiers landed. Only then did Dakui carefully look around again to confirm that no one was there. Then he walked to a rolling log and untied the rope. Two
The ropes were connected together, one end was tied to the battlements, and the other end was hung down the city. Dakui jumped out of the city wall and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
Xu Da had just ordered his people to put out the lights and go to bed, when suddenly he heard that soldiers came to report: "Marshal, General Tang He's subordinate Zhang Dakui wants to see you."
Xu Da had just fallen asleep. Hearing this, he stood up and said, "Please come quickly."
During the day, Yang Xiaohu arrived at Xu Da's camp, saying he was looking for his adoptive father. But there was no sign of Da Kui. After Xu Da learned about this, he arranged for Yang Xiaohu to stay in the camp. After many years of military career, Xu Da was very resourceful.
Man, he knew in his heart that there must be something fishy. Who would have thought that there would be news that night.
Dakui followed Xu Da's bodyguard into the Chinese army's tent, and saw Xu Da sitting in the tent wearing a brocade robe and no armor.
Dakui stepped forward and saluted: "Marshal, I have something big to report to the marshal."
Xu Da stroked Xu Ran and said with a smile: "If you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it."
Dakui then said: "I have captured Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen brothers alive in Qingyang City, and found out how to enter the city. Please send troops quickly, Marshal, and the city will be broken tonight."
"Oh?" Xu Da suddenly stood up and came to Dakui after hearing this: "Are you serious about this?"
"I don't dare to say anything false." Dakui cupped his fists and saluted, his behavior extremely respectful.
Xu Da stared at Da Kui for a long time, and then said: "If it is true as you said, you have made great contributions to the Ming Army. I will send a handwritten letter to Emperor Taizu."
Dakui saluted again: "Thank you, Marshal."
Xu Da then asked: "How can we attack the city?"
Dakui then said: "When Yuan soldiers and messengers come and go, they all use money as a token. As long as the city gate is deceived, Qingyang City can be captured in one fell swoop."
Xu Da was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly summoned the messenger to prepare for the war, and summoned the generals of each battalion to come to the Chinese army's tent to discuss matters...
Yang Xiaohu finally met his adoptive father and was overjoyed.
The Ming army selected 10,000 cavalry and followed Da Kui and Yang Xiaohu to march quietly towards the east gate of Qingyang City. The 10,000 cavalry could easily be noticed by the Yuan soldiers even in the dark. In desperation, Dakui had to order the men and horses to a hidden place outside the city.
Stop. This place is still about one mile away from Qingyang City.
After setting up the troops, Dakui rode towards Qingyang City alone. When he got to the city gate, he heard the Yuan soldiers on the city shout and ask: "Who are you?"
Dakui raised his voice and said: "I am the messenger sent by General Kuakuo. I want to see your general."
Yuan soldiers shouted at the city and asked, "Do you have any tokens?"
Dakui took his bow and set an arrow, and the arrows had already been tied to make money. When the bowstring sounded, a long arrow shot up to the top of the city.
After a while, there was a "squeaking" sound, and the city gate opened wide.
Da Kui immediately climbed onto the suspension bridge and headed towards the city gate. When he entered the gate and saw hundreds of Yuan soldiers guarding the place, he couldn't help but sneered. These hundreds of Yuan soldiers were not enough in Da Kui's eyes. This was not because Da Kui was brave, but because Da Kui immediately returned the favor.
I brought a big package. This package contained fifty thunderbolts. To put it bluntly, this thunderbolt is just a layer of cast iron filled with explosives. Once there is a violent collision, this thing will explode, and once it explodes, it will make a sound.
A thunderbolt is extremely lethal.
Da Kui rode through the city cave on his horse, which not only attracted the attention of all the Yuan soldiers. The package on Da Kui's buttocks was so eye-catching, a big bulging bag. As soon as Da Kui left the city cave, he heard the sound of the city gate closing.
It was time to take action. Dakui first checked the cotton wool in the horse's ears under his crotch, and then slowly reached out and took out two thunderbolts.
Holding the Jingtian Lei in his hand, he first weighed it in his hand, and then threw it back without looking. The two Jingtian Thunders crossed a semicircle in the air and fell into the city gate.
There were two loud sounds of "Boom" and "Boom", as if the earth was shattering. Dakui knocked his horse's belly with both feet, and the horse rushed out. After running dozens of steps, Dakui reined the horse back and a battle began.
The Jingtian Lei was launched one by one, and they were thrown wherever there were many people. It happened to be a coincidence that Dakui's accuracy in throwing things was unparalleled. For a time, the sound of "bang" and "bang" was heard near the city gate and in the city gate hole.
The sky was filled with flames and smoke.
Da Kui immediately threw more than twenty thunderbolts into the street and then stopped throwing them away. He first picked up the spear from the saddle hook, and then got off the horse with one leg. The fog in front of him made it impossible to see anyone. Da Kui walked into the city gate.
I saw corpses strewn all over the ground, but there was no one left alive.
Dakui walked to the city gate, dragged away the corpses of Yuan soldiers who were in the way, and then opened the city gate.
In just one cup of tea, the Ming army's 10,000 cavalry were already rushing towards the Qingyang city gate like a tide. The soldiers on duty in the city had just heard a shocking explosion below the city, and before they knew what had happened, they saw the Ming army coming in force.
In desperation, he hurriedly pulled up the suspension bridge. Some Yuan soldiers blew their horns.
He can blow the horn as much as he wants, but he cannot lift the suspension bridge.
Dakui opened the city gate and turned around and ran to the war horse. He took out a thunderbolt from the horse's package. He looked up at the gate tower and threw the thunderbolt with a wave of his arms and hands. This was really powerful.
A shocking thunder flew directly into the city gate tower, and then there was a loud bang, and half of the entire city gate tower was blown away.
Before the ropes of the suspension bridge could be tied up, the two Yuan soldiers on duty at the city gate tower were blown to pieces. The suspension bridge outside the city gate suddenly fell down, and the Ming army happened to rush in front of the city gate. Fortunately, they entered without stopping.
to Qingyang City.
Da Kui took off the package from his horse and carried it on his back with a long spear. He turned around and ran into the dark night. After ten thousand Ming army cavalry entered the city, they guarded the east gate of the city. In less than half an hour, more than ten thousand Ming soldiers arrived.
The army entered the city in large numbers.
Dakui ran all the way, heading straight to the south of the city, where the Yuan soldiers' camp was. As he was running, a group of men and horses came towards him, thousands in number. It turned out to be armored soldiers guarding the east city. It looked like they were going to
Go and take back the east gate.
Dakui dodged and hid in the dark, waiting for the Yuan Bing brigade to get close enough, shaking his hand like a thunderbolt.
There was a loud "boom", and the Jingtian Lei exploded in the crowd. The Yuan soldiers screamed and neighed into a mess. Dakui was no longer polite, and the Jingtian Lei struck frequently. The Yuan soldiers cried like ghosts and howled like wolves.
More than twenty thunderbolts were thrown out, and the scene on the street was already horrific. I saw stumps and broken arms everywhere. Yuan soldiers who were not killed or injured were rolling and wailing on the ground. The Yuan soldiers behind were so shocked that they were helpless.
No one dares to take a step forward.
At this moment, there was a rumble of horse hooves at the east gate. It turned out that a large group of Ming troops had entered the city and were killing Yuan soldiers everywhere. After the sudden change just now, everyone at the Yuan soldiers at the east gate of the city was frightened.
At this moment, the Ming army's cavalry totaled ten thousand, and they rushed into the formation of the Yuan soldiers in a blink of an eye. The Yuan soldiers fled in confusion as they were chopping melons and vegetables.
In less than half an hour, nearly half of the ten thousand yuan soldiers were killed or wounded, and the rest abandoned their weapons and surrendered.
The Ming army first captured four gates, and then the whole city was chasing the remaining Yuan soldiers. There were still tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers who could have fought, but they had no choice but to do nothing. Before dawn, the entire Qingyang city had been exposed.
Military control.
Xu Da brought his soldiers and generals into the garrison. After sitting down in the hall, Xu Da ordered someone to summon Dakui. In front of the generals, Xu Da asked: "Where are brothers Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen?"
Dakui made no secret and said: "I hid them in a well, and there was a big boulder at the top of the well. I expected they wouldn't be able to escape."
Xu Da chuckled and said, "In that case, you can bring a hundred soldiers to escort brothers Zhang Liangbi and Zhang Liangchen here."
Dakui cupped his fists and said, "Marshal, I'll be back later." He turned around and left the garrison hall.
Since it was the marshal's order, naturally a school captain led a hundred soldiers and followed Da Kui out of the garrison house. Da Kui found the small courtyard according to his memory.
