Li Shi got up with a groan, feeling aggrieved and wanting to cry.
Getting beaten for no reason?
I was complaining in my heart when I heard Li Chengzhi roaring: "Idiot, why don't you come over and move things?"
He responded and ran over.
Each one weighs twenty kilograms, and a horse can carry four. Four laden loads equal three hundred and twenty kilograms.
Li Chengzhi estimated that these sixteen packs of explosives could completely explode a two-foot-thick bluestone brick wall.
What's more, the walls of Anwu City are only made of rammed earth, and they have been in disrepair for many years. They are cracked and leaking, and they are not as strong as imagined.
"Each person holds one horse, and the movement should be as quiet as possible... Remember, never catch fire..." Li Chengzhi confessed sternly.
"Don't worry, Sir!" Li Liang, Li Zhang, Li Feng and others responded.
Li Shi was so wronged that he died.
It’s not his fault?
Li Chengzhi asked him to lead the way...
"You are in charge of the Chinese Army..."
Li Chengzhi pulled Li Song aside and confessed in a low voice, "When the thunder started, all the troops came out and surrounded them on all sides... There are only two thousand thieves. We don't want to annihilate them all, but we must try our best to prevent the households in the city from escaping...
”
Compared with Chaona, Anwu County is much smaller, the county seat is not big, and the population is smaller. Adding the two thousand rebels, there are only five or six thousand people.
But flies and mosquitoes are both meat. If you catch one more, you can plant several acres of land...
Li Song finally knew why Li Chengzhi dared to attack Wu'an City without even bringing half a ladder with him?
Is this what it turns out to be?
Although he had never seen it with his own eyes, he heard Li Bai talk about it: Lang Jun was able to draw thunder from the sky, which once caused half of the cliff of Kongtong Mountain to collapse. The power was astonishing.
The iron pieces that collapsed can even penetrate bluestone...
Is this... the thunder?
With the faint light, Li Song looked at the explosive pack on the horse, his heart trembling wildly.
No wonder Lang Jun got angry when he saw Li, and his voice changed with fear. If something went wrong, he might be blown away by the thunder...
"Mr. Lang... Why don't you leave me alone?"
"Bullshit! Do you know how to use this thing?"
Li Chengzhi shouted coldly, "Mr. Lang, how much do you cherish your life? Don't you know? Don't worry, I will live well even if you all die..."
Although he said this, Li Chengzhi felt a little strange in his heart: If someone comes and lights a fire at this time, the backbone of the Li family will be destroyed...
Li Chengzhi explained again: "Remember, don't be anxious, don't panic... How can you do your best every time you fight? As long as you can stop most of them..."
He was afraid that Li Song would attack quickly and gain immediate advantage, so he would send cavalry to pursue him.
Are you kidding?
On such a dark night, as long as you dare to run fast, nine out of ten horses will definitely stumble. If the horse stumbles, how can the cavalry on the horse do anything good?
If you don't fall to death, you will have to break a few bones...
Li Song was hesitant to speak, but finally asked: "The contribution to the city's destruction is not small, why not give it to Hu Baozong, the servant, or Li Feng, or Li Liang who led the army to attack?"
Li Chengzhi rolled his eyelids: "Have you broken through the city?"
Li Song was stunned: "Not really!"
"Shut up if you don't!" Li Chengzhi scolded angrily.
This is not a field battle. We will collapse when we are defeated, and surrender when we are asked. Even if the city is broken, the battle will not be that easy to fight.
As long as the thieves have a little courage, they will defend the city. It will be a fierce battle after entering the city.
What's more, I'm not familiar with the terrain at all, and the sky is still so dark?
So Li Chengzhi really doesn’t want the white-armored soldiers to risk their lives.
Let Hu Baozong do it, so that Hu Hai knows that this battle is not as easy to fight as he thought, and this skill is not as easy to establish...
After some explanation, Li Liang, Li Zhang, Li Feng, and Li Chengzhi each led a horse and followed Li Shi forward in the dark.
Afraid of alerting the bandits, all four horses had their hooves bandaged in advance, and wore bits and masks. All the bits and pieces that could be picked off the people were removed, and even the horizontal knives were tied to their backs.
While walking, Li Shi reported to Li Chengzhi the information he had discovered over the past few days.
"After the thieves entered the city, they were afraid that the households would flee and the troops would be too scattered, so they sealed the other three gates with earth and rocks, leaving only the west gate. The purpose was to facilitate the soldiers and horses coming from the direction of Jingzhou, as well as food and grass, to enter the city. p>
Therefore, there are watchmen, guards, and soldiers at the west gate... Correspondingly, the city gate is not sealed.
But when our army entered Jingyang and Tangqi often appeared near Anwu, the bandit guard ordered the craftsmen in the city to strengthen the city gate, so that ordinary rams could not break it open..."
No matter how thick the reinforcement is, it is still made of wood. How many blasts can it withstand?
This is not what Li Chengzhi is worried about at all.
"Where's the top of the city?"
"We haven't found any guards yet. They probably all went into the gatehouse to hide from the wind. Even in the past, it was rare to see anyone standing at the top of the city..."
Li Chengzhi was not surprised to hear what Li Shi said.
How strict can you expect military discipline from a group of rebels who suddenly rebelled?
"Where's the moat?"
"The silt has not been cleared for many years, and it has dried up long ago..."
In this way, as soon as the door is opened, it will be like a vast plain, and Hu Baozong's men can just charge and kill.
Li Chengzhi's confidence has increased...
Because he was walking slowly, Li Chengzhi arrived at the north corner of the west gate after about two moments.
Hu Baozong has long been impatient with waiting.
"When will the door open?" he asked impatiently.
"Immediately!" Li Chengzhi replied and looked around again.
After all, it was a permanent army, and Hu Baozong's military discipline was quite strict. Most of the two thousand soldiers were squatting, and apart from breathing, there was no sound of chaos.
In fact, it is still five or six hundred meters away from the city, and it is leeward. As long as you don't yell, it is basically impossible to alert the rebels.
"How's it going?"
Li Chengzhi pointed to the city head and asked.
"Don't talk about people, not even a ghost is seen!"
Hu Baozong replied, "There were originally four lanterns. I don't know whether they ran out of oil or were blown out by the wind. Two of them went out for half an hour, and no one came out to check..."
That’s good!
If you have the opportunity to blow open the door made of wood, you don't have to waste time and effort to blow up the city wall.
Li Chengzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and told Hu Baozong: "Remember, listen to the whistle... If the whistle doesn't sound, even if there is thunder in the sky, don't move..."
He was afraid that if it failed to explode once, it would cause accidental injury if Hu Baozong rushed forward rashly during the second or third explosion.
"Understood!" Hu Baozong responded solemnly.
"Let's go..." Li Chengzhi waved his hand.
Hu Baozong's expression suddenly changed.
Li Chengzhi actually wants to go in person?
And you only brought four people?
It seems that there is a conspirator...
Hu Baozong endured it again and again, but in the end he did not dare to persuade him.
When Li Chengzhi walked more than ten feet, he came over and asked: Why were Li Feng, Li Shi, Li Liang and others protecting him?
Where are the guards?
And what is being carried immediately?
Is it possible that this is a reward for insiders?
I was suspicious in my heart, but when I raised my head, I could no longer hear the movements of Li Chengzhi and others.
