Chapter 370
Chapter 370
"I..." Shen Penglai panted, "Before General Shen left, he made a plan for military training, which included siege training. If it was a heavily guarded pass, we wouldn't dare to climb the wall blatantly. Now that Xiaoguan is so dilapidated, of course we have to attack head-on!"
"Okay! Let's take action!" Huang Zhongchang said with a smile, "Please give the order, General Shen!" He handed the military token to her with both hands.
"Okay!" Shen Hui'e solemnly took the military order with both hands and divided the troops into three groups, one group seized the beacon tower and the other group quickly occupied the village.
The last journey, straight to Xiaoguan!
Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the starry sky. "Pass the order down, eat something, and move in half an hour."
Half an hour later, Shen Hui'e personally led the team and rushed towards Xiaoguan like a ghost in the night.
It climbed up the blue brick city wall like a gecko.
The soldiers on the city wall were stunned. The city wall was dark and there was no light. "This... this... there is no one on guard."
"What's so strange about that?" Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows and said, "I've already seen the floor plan. I know where the barracks are. What are you waiting for?"
Next, he acted like a cat and killed all the soldiers guarding the pass without leaving a single one alive.
"Damn it, even in this situation, they are still drinking and having fun."
Shen Hui'e rolled her eyes in her heart when she heard this. Men...
Huang Zhongchang led the rest of the troops into the pass and said in disbelief, "We've taken it down so soon."
"Why? Do we have to fight for three days and three nights?" Shen Hui'e raised her eyebrows and looked at him and said, "They have no defense, and only a few soldiers."
"Yes, there are not many people on the beacon tower on the mountain." Tie Feng clasped his hands and replied, "We have hundreds of people and we killed a dozen of them. It's as easy as cutting melons and vegetables."
"Where is the village?" Shen Hui'e asked Huang Shuchang and his team leader.
"They are all old, weak, women and children, and no one can resist." Huang Shuchang said with his hands clasped together.
"Then let's rest for a day and set off tomorrow night." Shen Hui'e passed the order down.
"Now, I can cook!" Tie Feng smacked his lips and said.
"Okay!" Shen Hui'e smiled and nodded, "Keep the food we need from the pass, and give the rest to the farmers in the village."
"We'll do it after daybreak," Huang Zhongchang responded readily.
"Xiaoguan has been successfully captured. What should we do next?" Huang Zhongchang looked at her with his dark eyes and said.
"Fight all the way to the capital with great fanfare, and let them go to ask for reinforcements." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her deep and penetrating eyes.
"This is to draw out the defense forces of the capital and annihilate them." Huang Zhongchang said to her with his eyes slightly narrowed.
"Yes! The walls of the capital are high and wide. If we put so few people in there, we won't even be able to make a splash. It will be difficult for us to attack." Shen Hui'e said to them with clear eyes.
"That's right. Although our combat capability is not weak, they also say that the defense of the capital is empty, but they still have more people than us." Huang Zhongchang looked at her with his dark eyes and said, "Only by luring the snake out of its hole can we annihilate them."
"If it weren't for General Shen, how could you be sure that this route would be easy to fight?" Qi Heng said worriedly.
"Let's send out scouts to investigate." Shen Hui'e said as she looked at them with her bright eyes.
"This Xiaoguan is the northern gate into Guanzhong. It is so poorly guarded. One can imagine the situation of other cities." Shen Penglai snorted.
"Send scouts to investigate." Huang Zhongchang made the decision, "Let's do as General Shen said! Let's fight our way through."
Leaving behind someone to guard the pass, Shen Hui'e and the others replenished their food supplies on the second day, and went into battle lightly, killing any gods they met or Buddhas they encountered.
Send out scouts to find out whether the capital city will come to help.
"According to the scouts' report, the capital has sent troops out." Huang Zhongchang said excitedly.
Since coming out of Xiaoguan, they have captured three cities in a row and encountered almost no major resistance.
This is incredible. Where are the soldiers? They were all drawn to fight against the princes. Now! They are fighting against the Yu family.
"Let's set up the ambush here, at Hulukou." Shen Hui'e pointed at the map and said, "We'll lure the enemy into a trap and then close the door to beat the dog."
"Okay!" Huang Zhongchang responded readily.
"Rest here, get some water, eat some fried noodles, and then we'll go." Shen Hui'e ordered.
In the summer, Shen Hui'e and her colleagues lay in the grass under the scorching sun, wearing straw wreaths on their heads, gazing at the flat yellow land below.
"Why are you frowning?" Huang Zhongchang asked with concern.
"There are obviously fewer trees here." Shen Hui'e turned her head slightly and looked at him and said, "When we take Xiaoguan, we will see the high mountains and dense forests."
"There are few people in Xiaoguan! There are not many people in the village." Huang Zhongchang said without thinking, "It's hard to say now. There are more people, so more firewood will be consumed." He smiled and said, "Let's plant it!"
"Hehe..." Shen Hui'e shook her head and laughed at him when she heard the words.
"How many will come?" Shen Penglai asked curiously.
"It's impossible for them to come out in full force." Huang Shuchang said bluntly, "The capital also needs defense."
"The scouts said there were 50,000 people coming." Huang Zhongchang looked at them with his dark eyes.
"Hiss..." All the soldiers crawling in the grass who heard it gasped.
"Haha... there are quite a lot of people here." Zhang Jixian comforted them and said, "We are ambushing, so having more people is useless."
"We are not afraid." Shen Penglai said, looking at them with bright eyes.
"Yes! I have confidence in us. We can do three things."
"Are they cavalry or infantry?"
"A small number of cavalry, mostly infantry." Huang Zhongchang said as he looked at them with bright eyes.
"That's good. We are not afraid of infantry."
"Looking at the terrain, it's not easy to form a formation here."
"A rain of arrows, let's charge directly into close combat."
"Uh-huh……"
"General Shen, let's do it this way!"
"That's right." Shen Hui'e nodded with a smile.
"I heard that the palace is so big that you can't walk around it in a day. Is that true?"
"I don't know, don't ask me." Shen Hui'e shook her head slightly and looked at Huang Zhongchang who was lying beside her. "I'm asking you!"
"We haven't been into the city, so we don't know. The imperial mausoleum is still some distance away from the capital!" Huang Zhongchang blinked and looked at them and said, "Does Mr. Zhang know this?"
"Big! Very big, very majestic, much bigger than Hezhong Prefecture." Zhang Jixian couldn't help but smack his lips and said, "We'll take a good look at it when the time comes."
"sure."
"When will they come?" Shen Penglai said impatiently, "This is too slow!"
"I don't know." Huang Zhongchang shook his head slightly when he heard this.
"Aren't they in a hurry to march?" Tiefeng asked, looking at them with caterpillar-like eyebrows. "Speed is of the essence in war, saving lives is like putting out a fire. If they are so slow, the flowers will be cold by the time they get to the field."
