Chapter 438

Early the next morning, Huang Xiaohu led three thousand elite soldiers, accompanied by Luo Hongfan, Huang Zixuan and others, and went out of the city together.

After leaving the city, Huang Xiaohu gave Luo Hongfan and Huang Zixuan some instructions, and then told them to return to the city as soon as possible, while he led the troops to officially set off.

Huang Xiaohu has Yunque to explore the way and Guo Yi's information, so he knows that he will go to Shouchun City first.

Speaking of Shouchun City, Huang Xiaohu remembered that Ji Wu once captured the city, so he didn't pay much attention to Shouchun City.

He didn't encounter any obstacles along the way, and after three days, Huang Xiaohu successfully arrived at the city of Shouchun.

The guards of Shouchun City also knew of Huang Xiaohu's whereabouts in advance, so they closed the city gates and prepared to defend the city to the death.

When Huang Xiaohu was about to attack Shouchun City, he suddenly found that although the [-] generals he brought were equipped with firearms, they did not carry artillery and heavy equipment for attacking the city for the convenience of marching. It's really a bit of a death sentence.

So Huang Xiaohu ordered the whole army to set up camp, two miles outside Shouchun City, to make repairs on the spot and wait for orders.

At night, Huang Xiaohu went to the field by himself.

After some searching, Huang Xiaohu found a vole.

"Hey, Field Mouse, did you hear me?"

The vole was about to run away, but it never thought that the person in front of him could talk to him, so he stopped and said, "Who are you? How can you speak mouse language?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "Don't say it's rat language, I was on good terms with you Shu King back then. I have something to ask you for help this time, and you can definitely do it."

"whats the matter?"

"Call all the mice and help me open the city gate!"

"The city gate? Then how can we open it?"

"It's impossible for one field mouse, but if there are tens of thousands of them, it is possible. You help me gather the field mice, and then listen to my orders."

"But why should I help you?"

"Are you going to force me to find you Mouse King? Now that I can communicate with you, do you think I will lie to you?"

"You were the first person to talk to me, so I believe you, but I don't know what other brothers think?"

"Okay, I'll wait for you here, you find a few people who talk and manage things, let's talk!"

Huang Xiaohu waited on the spot for a while, and the field mouse really brought more than a dozen field mice, and it seemed that they didn't believe that Huang Xiaohu could communicate with mice.

One of the field mice, which looked like a big one, said to Huang Xiaohu: "Hey, is that you? Can you talk to us?"

Huang Xiaohu said, "Yes, what's your name?"

The field mouse said: "Just call me Tian Boss. I am the oldest here. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Huang Xiaohu was overjoyed, and said: "Boss Tian, ​​I need your help here in an emergency, I want you to call all the mice to help me open the city gate!"

Boss Tian said: "It may be difficult to open the city gate, what are you going to do?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "We want to enter the city, but the city gates are closed, and we have no choice. I think you can definitely help us by gathering tens of millions of mice."

Boss Tian said: "If you want to enter the city, you don't have to go through the city gate. We can help you dig a hole, what do you think?"

When Huang Xiaohu heard about digging, he also had a new plan in mind, so he immediately said to Boss Tian: "It's fine to dig a hole, but it must be done in secret, so you can't be discovered!"

Boss Tian said: "Don't worry, we have always been very careful in doing things, so that no one will find out."

Huang Xiaohu discussed with Boss Tian for a while, and finally decided that Boss Tian would lead the mice to dig a hole in the ground, and then they could enter the city through the city wall from a hidden place.

After everything was planned, Huang Xiaohu returned to the barracks and called the three regiment leaders to discuss.

Huang Xiaohu said to them: "Now I have a plan to open the city gate. At that time, I need to arrange twenty elite soldiers to follow me. After we open the city gate, you will lead the army to rush into the city."

"When will it be done?" asked one of the regimental leaders.

Huang Xiaohu said: "Tomorrow after dark, I will enter the city with twenty elite soldiers at night, and then secretly open the city gate. Once we open the city gate, you must rush in as soon as possible, don't delay, understand? "

The three regiment leaders said in unison: "We must act according to the order, and there will be no delay."

Huang Xiaohu personally selected [-] elite soldiers, and then explained the plan to them, so he asked them to go back to rest and prepare to set off at night the next day.

The guards of Shouchun City did not leave the city to attack Huang Xiaohu's barracks. It seemed that they were ready to defend to the death.

On the second night, Huang Xiaohu led twenty elite soldiers to a corner of the city wall.

That's where the field mouse directed Huang Xiaohu to go, and a temporary passage has been dug.

Huang Xiaohu was the first to get into the cave, and then twenty elite soldiers followed Huang Xiaohu into the cave.

It is said that mice can dig holes, and they are really good at digging holes, and the holes they dug this time are actually very solid, just like sewers, just enough to accommodate a person's body freely entering.

After crawling for a while, Huang Xiaohu heard the voice of a field mouse.

The field mouse said: "Break the dirt and you will be in the city. You push it hard and you are already in the city."

Huang Xiaohu fought hard to push the dirt away, and quickly jumped out.

At this moment, Huang Xiaohu discovered that there were actually several guard soldiers around him, and it turned out that this place happened to be a sentry post.

Those guard soldiers were taken aback by Huang Xiaohu's sudden appearance, but before they could resist, they were knocked unconscious by Huang Xiaohu.

Then twenty elite soldiers also came out, Huang Xiaohu picked out three soldiers, asked them to change into the clothes of several guards, and went directly to the city gate to wait.

Because it was night, the light was not very good, but the security in the city was relatively strict, so there were guards on the city wall lighting torches at night, and with the help of the dim light, Huang Xiaohu and the others found the location of the city gate.

Now that he has seen the city gate, Huang Xiaohu doesn't need to be polite.

Although some guards had discovered the abnormality, Huang Xiaohu and the others quickly approached the city gate and killed more than a dozen defenders very quickly. Huang Xiaohu's soldiers opened the city gate, and everything was according to Huang Xiaohu's plan.

After the city gate was opened, the city was in chaos. Huang Xiaohu led his soldiers to rush to the left and right, resisting the two groups of enemies who came to reinforce them.

Three thousand elite soldiers and horses rushed into the city, and blood flowed everywhere they went.

The defender of Shouchun City hastily led the Taiping Army to fight, but after encountering Huang Xiaohu, the defender was directly beheaded by Huang Xiaohu.

Huang Xiaohu's order was not to kill innocent people indiscriminately, so after the [-] soldiers entered the city, they only fought against the Taiping Army and did not hurt the common people. Besides, most of the common people were still asleep at this time, so they would not be stupid Come out to die in the middle of the night.

Before dawn, Huang Xiaohu's army had already controlled the situation, and had already killed the mansion of the Taiping Army general, but Huang Xiaohu ordered the mansion to be surrounded and no further intrusion was allowed.

In fact, Huang Xiaohu knew that there must be many family members in the guard's mansion, so if he rushed in, it would definitely turn into a massacre, so he just ordered to surround the mansion and not enter.

After a while, Huang Xiaohu's army basically controlled Shouchun City, and more than 2000 Taiping soldiers abandoned the city and fled, Huang Xiaohu did not order to pursue them.

After counting the battlefield, Huang Xiaohu's men had more than [-] casualties, but killed or wounded more than [-] Taiping soldiers, and there were more than [-] prisoners.

How to deal with the wounded, Huang Xiaohu also had a headache, in the end he could only send a team of 100 people to escort hundreds of wounded back to Panlong County.

In this way, Huang Xiaohu's own 2000 soldiers only took down Shouchun City, leaving only [-] men, which is equivalent to a loss of one-third.

Huang Xiaohu was worrying. At this time, a leader came in to report the situation.

The head of the regiment said: "Master President, I don't know how to deal with more than 1000 surrendered soldiers?"

Huang Xiaohu said: "Staying here will definitely become our enemy again, but killing them will definitely not work, because I never kill the surrendered soldiers, can we incorporate the surrendered soldiers into our own team?"

But the head of the regiment said: "It is impossible to guess the mind of the soldiers who surrendered. If they are incorporated into our camp, I am afraid that they will turn back and do great harm!"

Huang Xiaohu said, "Then do you have any suggestions?"

The head of the regiment said: "If you let them go, it is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain. If they are left behind, there will be hidden dangers. It is better to kill them all to save trouble!"

Huang Xiaohu said: "You can't kill surrendered soldiers. This is the consistent policy of our Shenlonghui. The reason why there are so many surrendered soldiers every time we fight is because they all know that surrendering can save us from death. If we rashly kill surrendered soldiers this time, we will lose our lives in the future." There will be more stubborn resistance, so let me think about it again and see how to deal with it better."

After that regiment leader retired, Huang Xiaohu began to think about how to deal with these surrendered soldiers, and Shouchun was also taken down, did he just give up so easily?

According to the previous plan, Huang Xiaohu's army should just drive straight in and attack Tianjing, but now it seems that what Guo Yi said before is indeed quite reasonable, that is, although Huang Xiaohu is brave and good at fighting, his soldiers are just ordinary people. At that time, even if the journey goes smoothly, I am afraid that if they reach Tianjing City, only Huang Xiaohu will be left alone.

After thinking for a while, Huang Xiaohu finally came up with a new plan, that is, since he was going to fight this time, and the distance from Panlong County was getting farther and farther, in fact, the farther away from Zhao Yali and Zhang Yalan, the less safe it was, so Huang Xiaohu decided Ask Ji Wu to lead troops to garrison Shouchun, and bring along Zhao Yali, Zhang Yalan and the little Yellow Emperor by the way.

Huang Xiaohu's new plan is to continue to go to Tianjing, but to lay down the city along the way, and leave it to Ji Wu and the others to guard. This means that Zhao Yali and Zhang Yalan will also accompany them, and Huang Xiaohu can have enough time to take care of them.
