There is a faint torch light on the city in the distance, as if the fire is burning in the original place and cannot move closer.
The city wall is towering, like a black dragon coiling its body and raising its head, towering into the sky and clouds.
At this time, Wang Zheng will always thank the system in his heart again for its great kindness.
The old man finally showed mercy and did not use up all the additional increases in the four attributes.
You must know that in "Riding and Cutting", every time these attributes increase by one point, it is not just what it is now.
Every time the strength increases, not only the strength is added, but also the health value is added.
For every additional point of agility, there are five points of weapon proficiency and a 0.5% increase in weapon speed.
As for Wisdom and Charm, the former is the most incredible. Every more Wisdom means more talent points, while Charm increases the upper limit of the team you can command.
Traveling to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, things have completely changed.
Not only does intelligence no longer add talent points, Wang Zheng has not found any great use for it so far, so he can only continue to be a "mentally retarded". There is no other way, as the upgrade experience becomes more and more massive, and the attribute points naturally become more and more precious.
Agility also cannot increase weapon proficiency, and health points are increased by upgrading, and have nothing to do with strength. It is a bit of a useless charm in the game, but it shines brightly and repeatedly performs extraordinary feats.
Not only was it useful in recruiting Pan Zhang, Yu Jin, Mi Heng and others, but Wang Zheng also found that it seemed to help him even when facing the enemy in battle.
Later, Yu Jin once said that when his eyes came into contact with him, he was distracted for a moment, and then he easily bullied him into approaching others.
Is this what is called momentum in martial arts novels?
While secretly pondering charm, strength has become Wang Zheng's most important attribute nowadays.
Because although it did not increase health, Wang Zheng discovered that it not only increased strength, but also physical fitness.
With each improvement in strength, one's five senses, body constitution, and other aspects become more and more superhuman, or inhuman.
Just like this.
Even though they were two or three miles away, even in the dark night, Wang Zheng still took a vague look at Pengcheng in the distance like a monster with concentration.
This is a tough city.
It seems that even the wind here is so strong that it makes people's faces feel a little painful.
At the ancient battlefield in front of Jiuli Mountain, a shepherd boy found an old sword and gun.
Although the struggle for hegemony between Chu and Han has passed away, the pines and waves at the foothills of Jiuli Mountain are still there.
From the past, present, and future, the sound it makes seems to always be strong bows and crossbows, swords chanting, swords roaring, thousands of armies shouting for death, and thousands of horses neighing.
Just last year, it just ushered in another war, and now it bears the scars presented by Cao Cao.
Although the city wall is high and thick, it has obviously been repaired in a short period of time. The fresh soil is completely different from the old city wall and the color is different.
There is a moat outside the city, which is paved around the city. Although its depth is unknown, its width is not bad, and there are obvious traces of manual processing.
However...it seems that it is still less of a headache than the moat in Linzi.
This is also the only place where Pengcheng is inferior compared to the two cities before.
For Wang Zheng, this was a good thing, and he was even a little lucky in his heart.
Even though they had made preparations in advance after Mi Heng's introduction, if Wu Sheng only opened the city gate and did not seize control of the suspension bridge, then the river would be too wide and the first wave of offensive would probably be It will be greatly affected.
On the tower, there were faint figures walking around, and the flag hung high and drooped, slowly rolling and whistling in the evening breeze.
Outside the city, countless people were watching and waiting.
.....
The moon disappears and the stars sink, and the sky and the earth are plunged into darkness.
It's already after midnight, the rooster crow time before the first day of the week.
It’s almost time for the start-up time that was agreed upon in advance.
This is also true.
In Wang Zheng's mind, he recalled the night before he started the uprising and killed officials. It was like this that the stars and moon were no longer there, and he was still awake all night long.
My mouth was dry again, and I felt the emotions growing in my heart.
It was nervous, awkward, impetuous, and...
Worry about gains and losses.
We meet again after a long absence, and we come here to open our hearts.
Wang Zheng subconsciously grasped the hilt of his sword, the hilt of a sword that could conquer thousands of miles.
Keep tightening and loosening.
Hold on tight again.
Even though the combat effectiveness of the second-tier soldiers has been verified several times, and the successful influx of 500 people into Pengcheng is already a great benefit, Wang Zheng is still worried.
Because if this wave does not succeed as planned, the consequences will be serious.
He and Mi Heng have the same view.
If you want to capture a powerful pass like Pengcheng in a short period of time, you have to hit it with one blow, and you can only accomplish your victory in one battle.
The reason for taking a detour to Yuzhou and walking nearly twice as long was because of this.
And if one hit misses, the raid fails.
It is very likely that we will have to face a defense that is more difficult to defeat than Linzi, and the price paid...whether it is human life or time, will only be more!
And those enemies, whether they are Yuan Shu or Wen Chou...
Wang Zheng did not dare to stay in Pengcheng for too long.
Although his face was expressionless and he stood tall and proud, Wang Zheng was indeed agitated.
Xu Fang next to him seemed to have noticed something, but he did not speak. He just stood silently beside him, blocking Wang Zheng from the wind while staring at the city in front of him.
Another quarter of an hour passed.
The mountains on three sides look like beasts, and the dark city gate in the distance seems to have become the bloody mouth of a ferocious beast, baring its fangs in the silence of the stagnant water, eager to devour everything.
What surprised and even disappointed everyone was...
Still nothing happened.
Having already given the order, all the soldiers behind held their breath and did not dare to spread the air. Occasionally, there were some slight noises. Those were the horses whose lips were covered, and their neighing was suppressed, so they could only make inaudible sounds. screamed.
Time continues to pass slowly.
With every minute and second that passed, Wang Zheng became more anxious.
He became suspicious.
What is Wu Sheng doing?
Why hasn't it started yet?
In this state, his expression could no longer hide his anxiety.
But he and his soldiers still endured the lurking minions.
While wandering around aimlessly, Wang Zheng suddenly frowned.
It seems that it is not as dark as before?
He was startled and quickly looked up.
I saw that the sky in the distance was indeed no longer completely dark, but there was a faint hint of morning light.
Depend on!
Damn it, why are you working so hard today and waking up so early?
Cursing repeatedly in his heart, Wang Zheng finally couldn't control the anger in his heart and began to think about changing his plan.
He didn't know why Wu Sheng didn't take action, but if he waited for the dawn to come, his family and horses would be completely unable to hide and traces would be exposed.
Then... we can only attack the city by force!
Just as he was secretly feeling cruel, he saw Xu Fang beside him let out a light sigh: "General, there seems to be some movement!"
Your physique is not as good as mine. I didn’t even hear you. Will you hear it?
He forgot that he was distracted and obsessed with complaining about others, but how could he still have the energy to pay attention to the opposite city?
Even though he was thinking this, Wang Zheng still listened carefully and his expression suddenly changed.
There was indeed a shouting sound, and the sound came from right inside the city gate.
Finally taking action?
Wang Zheng was overjoyed and wanted to listen more carefully, but it was no longer necessary.
Because at the next moment, the killing cry has risen into the sky. Even if they are far apart, as long as they are not deaf, everyone can hear it clearly.
What followed from time to time was the sound of swords striking each other, and the screams of the defeated.
Then, amid a burst of noise and chaos, the city gate opened!
Then there was another "squeak" of grinding teeth, but the suspension bridge was slowly lowered.
Wu Sheng not only lived up to expectations, but also brought surprises, and at the same time captured two important locations: the city gate and the suspension bridge!
The gate to the outer city is wide open, and the avenue leading to the inner city has been fully revealed!
"The city is open!"
"His grandma's shop is finally open!"
Thousands of people behind him cheered at the same time, and they were also anxious to wait.
It was when everyone was happy, but at this moment, Xu Fang said loudly:
"The infantry enters first, followed by the cavalry. Listen to the general's orders first and enter the city in order. Anyone who disrupts order will be killed without mercy!"
that's right!
Wang Zheng's heart trembled, and he secretly screamed in shame that he could not react as quickly as Xu Fang.
This call could be said to have come just in time.
Even the general Wang Sheng was impatient while waiting, let alone the ordinary soldiers behind him who had also been holding back all night?
Traveling by night, waiting for opportunities, and raiding, the heavenly army has done all three before, but this is the first time they have done it at the same time.
The harder you wait, the easier it will be to get excited now, so you have to be careful that the army will mess up its position.
The last step before dawn is actually more likely to make people fall!
Nodding approvingly at Xu Fang, Wang Zheng jumped up.
The young man mounted his horse, looked back, raised his sword, and raised his arms.
The sonorous shouts resounded through the sky and echoed everywhere:
"First capture the outer city, then force the inner city. Once the city is captured, there will be a three-day celebration."
"Everyone has a share in wine, meat and money."
"kill!"
When the sound of fighting in the city became louder and louder, a blazing green light suddenly appeared in the night.
Immediately, another wave of murderous shouts burst out from the plains.
The next moment, countless dark torrents rushed towards Pengcheng.
