Following the previous words, because these aristocratic families kept refreshing their limits and dying to death, they waited until Huang Chao entered Chang'an for a wave of harvesting, and then reached the hands of Zhu Lao San to give the world’s only “clear currents” to the Yellow River. The turbidity flowed.
. . . . . . . . . . .
In Dantu City,
Once again, he pacified and patrolled the defenders on most of the city wall, and caught a dozen examples of unpretentious and unauthorized resignation, and hung to death in the gatehouse to follow suit. As he hugged all the way back to the inner house, Zhou Bao’s tight face did not relax.
So that after hurriedly removing the armor, robe, and the band, those concubines and waiters who were holding face towels, silver basins, pots and cups, and hot soup, suddenly took photos of them. Don't dare to step forward.
Because just after coming back yesterday, two more maids were dragged out and killed by the linggong because they were not attentive enough to serve them. Fortunately, after visiting the city today, Zhou Bao seemed even more sleepy and less troubled. He quickly moved the corner of his mouth to signal them to retreat, leaving only three concubines responsible for beating the shoulders, waist, and legs.
In the cautious and gentle movements, Zhou Bao, who was full of thoughts, slowly fell into a small sleepy sleep after several rounds. However, his rest was destined not to last long, and a greeting sounded outside again.
"Meet the young handsome man..."
"Everyone is well before the office..."
"Why did you come back so soon? Didn't it make you go to the camp for rewards and disposal,"
Zhou Bao was a little dissatisfied and slowly opened his eyelids, and looked at the eldest son who entered in the announcement.
"But there is a good news, and I am about to share it with Grandpa... But it is Dong Chang, the training envoy of the Badu Regiment who commanded the Hangzhou army and horses, and has news."
A kind of Zhou Yu who only promised in front of him, this is a rare way of joy.
"At this time, people were even risking their deaths along the river, and they were sneaked into the city in a small boat overnight to call the gate. Now they have come up to the city, just waiting for Aye to ask questions."
"Whether there is fraud in this, we need to prevent the thief from taking the opportunity to cheat in..."
When Zhou Bao heard the sound, there was a glimmer of light in his opened eyes.
"The child should be self-examination, so I asked the people who came over in detail about the situation, and some goalkeepers pointed out that it was the Huang Jie in Longquan town who used to worship at the mansion in the past;"
Zhou Ji is also a solemn promise.
"Then it was verified that the token was not fake. It was the half of the jade that Aye gave to Dong Dutuan to be correct. Therefore, the news in the north gate was strictly blocked, and he came to ask for instructions quickly..."
"Oh, I don't know what news from the people here, or what does Dong (Chang) Luo Ping mean..."
Zhou Bao couldn't help but sighed slightly and straightened up, swiping all the concubines back, and then cast a sharp look at the pro-army general who was standing on the inner wall, and the other party immediately disappeared with a sense of comprehension.
"But Dong Badu said that in addition to the Hangzhou army, his subordinates have gathered around 30,000 soldiers from the Chang and Tai states, and they want to fight the thieves together in the city and outside..."
Until this moment, Zhou Bao's unmoving face showed a meaningful expression for a while. After a while, at the military meeting that was convened temporarily by the Ya Nei, the leading generals and important officials under the Jie Ya also fell into rebuttal and disputes between their words.
"This Dong Chang may not be the first mouse at both ends, and the wing to preserve the mind... makes the public committee really unbelievable..."
This is a natural skepticism that is conservative and stable.
"However, since he sent someone to spread the word at risk of death, it is more or less a dedication to serve and contribute, and it is enough to inspire and invigorate people on the bright side; there is no need to demand so much..."
And this is from the opinion of quite optimistic and radical.
"Since ancient times, what is the most important thing about defending the city? Isn't it the situation of external helplessness and constant chaos inside? Anyway, such news should be used to the maximum..."
This is a neutral argument between the two.
"In that case, let those who come up and I wait to witness a good show."
Zhou Bao, who lived on the head and watched coldly for a long time, followed a Yuhou who walked to pass the pass, and immediately sneered and turned to him.
Immediately, most of the unidentified generals appeared behind the city disc in the east of the city along with Zhou Bao; the smell of fresh blood was still faintly diffused in the air of the city road and stairs. And there were dozens of corpses that had been slashed, smashed under the root of the inner wall.
And around these corpses, a circle of newly built low walls and fences formed an irregular small urn city.
"Report to Lingong, everything is ready to stop...just waiting for the order..."
Then Zuo Yuhou, General Zhou Rang, who led the tooth soldiers, came out from the door with a group of fully clothed soldiers.
"Dare to ask Jie Shuai what is this?..."
Only then did someone come back to cover their noses and asked in surprise, but it was Pei Lu, a fair-skinned transfer judge.
"These are the unruly generations of the sergeants on the wall who tried to secretly communicate with the outside thieves... Fortunately, the loyal and righteous men who had a heart for the court told them, so they gathered together to punish the city..."
Zuo Yuhou General Zhou Rang explained now.
"It's just that the out-of-city thieves they have linked up have not yet noticed yet. The potential city is still about to shoot letters. Then I was ordered to wait silently and make false claims. Now it's the end of the game. ..."
After a while after his words fell, the faint moonlight began to sink, and everyone was waiting in the gatehouse to be a little impatient; suddenly he saw the armored soldiers squatting in ambush on the battlements. It moved.
Many more rustling noises approached under the city wall with the dim and unclear night; and under the city wall was quietly filled with many sergeants dispatched from all over the city to carry crossbows with crossbows; from inside the city’s head As I watched it, I saw layers of torches reflecting the light of the Jiaguang extending into the city square, and it was vaguely unknown how many people there were.
The breath that they uttered between standing quietly and silently, unexpectedly appeared in the sky between the city square and the gate tower, showing a continuous faint haze and a dim moonlight. This also made many hearts feel awe-inspiring, it seems that most of the Jianrui in the city have been gathered here.
Then, in a certain kind of anxious and tormenting silence, Ye Xiao’s continued shouts came from outside the city; and amid the tooth-wrenching sound of the heavy and heavy door shaft turning; the city gate was moved from the inside to the outside. Slowly opened for the most part, and then stopped at the bevel of a big character. Among the people who instinctively held their breath on the tower, they also raised their hearts and eyes to their throats.
Then, with the dozens of fire cages extinguished one after another on the crenellation, I heard a large number of chaotic running steps under the city; like a stream of springs gathered from a short distance, and then turned into a stream running down nearby. , And then converge and accelerate to become a turbulent river just a short distance away; and like a flood, I used the doorway and corridor under my feet, and it shook so that everyone waiting upstairs could feel the obvious vibration and tremor under the feet.
Then, I saw You Yu Hou Gaorang personally throwing a huge firecracker full of medicine stones into a cage fire, and sparks splashed in the silent night sky with a deafening explosion; and then followed by a rustle. The movement of the whole city was illuminated by torches and fire cages that were successively lit.
"Kill the Thief"
"Kill the Thief"
"Kill the Thief"
In such a swaying shout, the crossbowmen and archers competing to stand up from the battlements and the city discs are like the jungle that suddenly grows out of Litsby on the wall, in the alternate density. In the dense buzzing sound, rockets and flying arrows were shot at the dark city that looked like a storm.
The officers and soldiers waiting on the inside of the city wall were also in the flames that suddenly rose up to illuminate the night sky, shouting loudly and screaming at the enemies who passed through the corridors under the city and temporarily built a small urn.
After just listening for a while, Zhou Bao's face suddenly became a little strange, and he suddenly pushed aside the guards’ own armor, and walked up to the top floor of the gate in person, eager to visit under the protection of the crenels and baffles. Away. ,
I saw the city under the stars scattered by the rockets, dimly seeing that there didn't seem to be many corpses left. And the city suddenly clamored:
"The thieves set fire... Stop them."
. . . . . . . .
"It's so risky..."
Zhou Huaian, who insisted on standing at the forefront to watch the battle and help out, couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead.
In spite of this, he insisted on personally checking the waves of figures who had retreated from under the city wall. Although there were a lot of arrows in his body and in his hand, but
Basically, they supported each other, helped and protected each other, and got out of the killing scope of the officials in the city. It can be said that apart from some unlucky ghosts who accidentally stepped into the trenches and stumbled in the dark, there was no more left behind or losses.
It's just that he didn't notice that in addition to the pale fright and disengagement of these soldiers, the eyes that looked at him were already dictated by complex emotions such as divine reverence, reverence, and gratitude.
Anyway, I used to use the full-field scanning ability covering the city gates to play a role. It was discovered in time that there were too many vital signs on the wall, and this hurriedly stopped and changed the plan to try to open the door and steal the city.
In the end, dozens of donkeys and mules filled with kerosene and other arson objects were used as pioneers in the open doorways, and this was the way to retreat most of the sneak attacks and the selection team.
It looks good now. According to the movement and reaction in the city, the defenders had been caught off guard by the arson team that had rushed in, and some of them were too busy to take care of themselves, but it was a pity that this time they had a chance to steal the city together.
However, even if the city is not stolen, it does not mean that he can't do other things. On the earth barriers and high platforms that are gradually lit up in the distance, stone cannons, firing poles, and whirlwind cannons that have set standards for shooting have also begun. Against the apparently densely packed city wall, and behind it, a full-blown intensive blow was carried out.
It didn't take long before Zhou Huaian saw the gate tower ignited by the flint hit by accident, and stumbled out a lot of screaming figures. (End of this chapter)
