With the support of General Huang Zhuang, military salaries and rewards were distributed to everyone. These soldiers who were originally Guo Li's soldiers were not completely under Chen Xian's control at this time, but they had been stabilized. They were also afraid of being accused of rebellion and colluding with the army. Even if Guo Li was beheaded, they would not dare to act rashly.

Next, Chen Xian took half of the original defenders away, leaving only half to guard the east gate with the soldiers he sent.

Chen Xian used the same method to seize the other three city gates, and incorporated the defenders there. In a short time, Chen Xian's hands increased from the original 5000 people to nearly [-]. [-] troops, accounting for more than two-thirds of the entire Chengdu city defenders.

At this time, Ye Tongzhang had also copied Guo Li's mansion, and a large amount of property was piled up in the yard. A dozen servants were guarded by soldiers, and they lined up and knelt on the ground one by one.

"General, all the valuable things are here!" A general came over to report.

Ye Tongzhang nodded: "Get someone to count, register the number, and then transport these properties away!"

"No!" General Zhuang agreed, pointing to a row of kneeling servants and asked: "General, what should we do with these people?"

Ye Tongzhang turned his head and glanced at these servants, frowned, and waved: "Now that the enemy is at hand, we don't have so much energy to take care of these prisoners, let's kill them all!"

"promise!"

The servants kneeling on the ground burst into tears one by one, and one of them, who looked like an aide, hurriedly shouted: "General, don't kill me! I have an important secret to report to the general, about Guo Li's collusion with the army!"

Hearing this, Ye Tongzhang raised his hands to stop the soldiers who were about to strike, and asked, "What do you know?"

The staff member looked at the soldiers who were holding up their knives, swallowed in horror, and hurriedly said: "Guo Li sent a soldier out of the city to contact the general of the army, and brought a letter with him. The villain wrote it on behalf of the villain, and the villain can remember the above content. Guo Li was not clear about the position of the official at the East Gate when the letter and Qianjun agreed to tomorrow night, but they should all have the intention of surrender, and Guo Li is the same!"

Zhao Junsheng felt relieved.

Afterwards, Zhao Junsheng called Nie Feihu and asked, "How are you preparing?"

"Return to Your Majesty, one thousand infantry and two thousand confederate troops have been prepared, and it will be midnight tonight!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "Very good! You 3000 people are just pioneers. As long as you are sure that Guo Li is sincerely surrendering and cooperates with you to capture Chengdu City, you can send someone to send a signal, and I will send troops to reinforce you!"

"promise!"

Soon, Su Ji begged to see him, and Zhao Junsheng announced him in.

"Your Majesty, I have already made a strategy for attacking the counties and cities in the Shu region, please take a look at it!" Su Ji finished speaking and handed over a memorial.

Zhao Junsheng took the memorial and looked it up, looked up halfway through and asked: "At first glance, this strategy is okay, I would like to ask, if when our army is attacking a city, the neighboring Song army comes to reinforce it, what would you do?" response?"

"Return to Your Majesty, I have prepared three thousand-man cavalry as a mobile force, ready to reinforce at any time, deployed here and here in two key positions, and can arrive quickly!"

Zhao Junsheng looked at the map in the direction of Su Ji's finger, and nodded involuntarily: "Okay, let's do it like this!"

Chapter 1006

"promise!"

Su Ji agreed and asked: "Your Majesty, when did the war start?"

Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a while and said: "Well, tonight, General Guo Li of the Song Dynasty will open the city gate and let our army enter the city. When our army captures Chengdu City and completely takes over the defense of the city, I'm afraid it will be dawn. You The operation here starts tomorrow!"

"understand!"

The day passed slowly, and at the beginning of the night, Nie Feihu came out of the camp with 3000 people. Everyone was ordered not to make a sound. The 3000 people came to the east gate without making a sound.

In addition to Nie Feihu's 3000 troops, Zhao Junsheng personally led Li Bao and [-] elite infantry and [-] cavalry to follow behind as support and reinforcements.

Just at the right time, a torch was lit on the tower of the East City Gate, and the torch was shaken three times in a row. Seeing this, Nie Feihu rode his horse to the city gate, and the 3000 people behind him also stepped forward.

As the city gate slowly opened, Nie Feihu was about to ride his horse and lead the team towards the city gate, when a commander pulled him along: "General, it's better to be careful, it's better for the last general to bring two thousand guilds into the city first. , the general will bring the remaining 1000 troops into the city and start the battle soon

Nie Feihu wanted to refuse at first, but he thought it was the general's kindness, so he couldn't bear to ignore his kindness, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, be careful, if you find anything wrong, call the police immediately!"

"Promise!" The commander clasped his fists, turned his head and waved to the soldiers of the Two Thousand Associations behind him: "Follow me into the city!"

When the city gate was fully opened and the city gate was pitch-black, the commander couldn't help being frightened, but at this moment he had no choice but to shoot. He rode his horse and led the way into the city, and the other soldiers entered one by one.

The 2000 people soon entered the city completely. Seeing that there would be no warning from the front, Nie Feihu felt relieved and boldly led the remaining 1000 people to the city gate.

The commander who had already entered the city kept turning his head to look at the left and right sides. After entering the city gate, there was an urn city. There must be an urn city inside the gate of a prefectural city like Chengdu. This is very common, an ordinary county town There is no urn city behind the city gate.

The commander shouted as he rode his horse, "Where is Guo Li, where is Guo Li?"

Guo Li's voice came from the city tower: "Yes, yes! The last general is Guo Li, and I ask the general to lead the troops into the city first. The last general will then mobilize troops to attack Chen Xian and Ye Tongzhang together with the general!"

The commander did not doubt that he was there, and led 2000 troops into the Wengcheng completely. At this time, he found that the walls on both sides were still dark, except for the torches on the towers, there were several fires under the walls on both sides. Outside, the other city walls are all dark.

Indistinctly, a cold light came from the city wall.

what is that?Could it be the moonlight reflected by the weapon?Thinking of this, the commander's face changed drastically, and he turned his head and shouted: "Back, get out, there is an ambush!"

It was too late. Chen Xian, who was hiding on the city tower, knew that the army had discovered something abnormal when he heard the shout. He made a decisive decision and shouted: "Close the city gate! Soldiers, let the arrows go!"

Nie Feihu had already reached the gate of the city, and when he was about to enter the city, the suspension bridge suddenly rose, and the gate of the city was closing quickly.

Nie Feihu's expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "Snatch the city gate with me, go up there, kill!"

"kill--"

"kill--"

There were a lot of shouts of killing at the gate of the city, inside the gate and inside the urn, and a large number of torches were thrown down inside the urn, illuminating the two thousand soldiers who had already entered the city.

The commander turned his horse's head, but was blocked by the densely packed allied army behind him, and countless arrows shot down from the square walls.

"Ah—ah—" Countless screams came out, and pieces of the Xie Congjun were shot down and killed.

"Don't panic, kill me on the city wall, kill—" Seeing that he couldn't turn around and leave the city for a while, the commander could only yell and lead the Congregation army to the stairs on both sides of the city.

But the place was already full of obstacles at this time, and it was impossible to rush up for a while. The arrows above the head kept setting down, and the commander and some soldiers who rushed ahead were shot one after another, and they were shot in the blink of an eye. Hedgehog.

The uncommanded allied army was even more flustered, fleeing but unable to escape, trying to fight but unable to find the enemy, the allied army was trapped in the urn city waiting to die.

At the gate of the city and inside the city gate, fierce confrontation had already taken place at this time. Nie Feihu killed all directions with his saber, and Song soldiers were hacked to death one by one, but at this time the suspension bridge was completely raised. Without the suspension bridge, the remaining A thousand infantrymen of the army could not cross the moat.

The soldiers had no choice but to jump down the moat and swim over, but when they climbed up the bank and were about to rush towards the city gate, a large amount of wood was suddenly dropped from the tower, and a huge pile was piled up in a blink of an eye, and a pot of fire oil fell from the sky.

The strong smell made the faces of the generals of the army change drastically. A general pulled Nie Feihu and ran back, "Run, run!"

Nie Feihu rolled and crawled down the wet pyre, a torch fell from the tower and landed on the pyre, and the pyre that was drenched in kerosene suddenly burst into flames.

The cloak on Nie Feihu who hadn't left the woodpile area caught fire in the blink of an eye. Nie Feihu was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart, he ran towards the moat.

With a "plop", Nie Feihu, who had become a burning man, jumped into the moat, and the fire was extinguished instantly in the river.

At this moment, his cloak was gone, and a small part of his battle robe was also burned. If it was a little later, his face would be burned and disfigured.

Nie Feihu stood on the other side of the moat and stared blankly at the soldiers blocked by the fire in the city gate. They had no hope of retreating, so they could only turn around and charge towards the enemy with their knives in hand. under the knife of the army.
