three kings

Chapter 176
It was mid-January at this time, not yet February.As soon as night falls, the sky will quickly darken.Not long after, the surroundings became hazy, and it was difficult to see the scenery several feet away.

Taking advantage of the faint darkness of night, Zhao Yun led three thousand carefully selected elite soldiers and quietly approached Tangyi.

Before they came, they had made complete preparations. Anything that could shine was covered with black cloth. In order to prevent accidental noises, everyone had a long bamboo stick in their mouths, and the group moved forward cautiously.

About half an hour later, Zhao Yun and the soldiers noticed faint fires not far ahead.In this dark night, even a little fire would be extremely dazzling, let alone several torches now.

Zhao Yun cheered up, signaled the soldiers behind him to be careful, and approached slowly first with light hands and feet.

As they got closer and closer to the enemy, Zhao Yun and others moved slower and slower.

Not far from the city, he summoned Zhang Xiu and Li Tong to discuss.

He lowered his voice and said: "There are no moving lights on the city, it seems that the guards here are not very strict."

Li Tong said in a low voice: "I am familiar with this place. There has not been a war in Guangling County for more than ten years. In addition, it is not well governed, so it must be lazy. However, there are thirteen torches on the city wall, which can almost illuminate the city. I'm afraid it's not easy to go up any corner of the city wall."

Looking at the torches, Zhao Yun stretched out his hand to feel the direction of the wind, and said in a low voice, "I'll test their vigilance."

Then, ignoring Li Tong and the others, he walked lightly to a place with a downwind wind, took out his bow, picked up a stone that was as heavy as an arrow branch, cut a groove on the stone with his sword, and put the groove on the stone. On the bowstring, aimed at a torch along the wind direction and shot it.

With a soft bang, the torch was knocked to the ground by stones.

Zhao Yun hurriedly climbed to the ground, nervously watching the movement on the city.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and after about a quarter of an hour, a soldier came over and reinserted the torch.

Zhao Yun returned to Li Tong's side, and said in a low voice: "About fifteen minutes, the long time of easy life has worn down their vigilance. We just took advantage of this to take the city. When we act later, we must be cautious, never Nothing can go wrong."

Li Tong and Zhang Xiu nodded spontaneously.

Zhao Yun ordered: "This wall is about two feet (that is, about six meters), and we can climb up it in the form of a human wall. Hu, you have the strongest strength and the most stable footsteps, and you will be the spine."

Hu Che'er bit the bamboo stick and patted his chest with an expression of wrapping around me.

Zhao Yun continued: "My kung fu is best to go up first, and remove the hidden dangers nearby."

Everyone nodded, it didn't make sense, who said that his martial arts were better than Zhao Yun's?
Zhao Yun ordered: "Li Tong, as soon as you go up the city wall, go down immediately, take a hundred brothers to pretend to be residents of the city, and set fire to create chaos. The rest of the people will follow me in ambush below the city wall, and kill the city wall with me if there is any movement. , let no one know that we climbed up from below the city.

Only in this way can we show that we are thieves who join forces with some unruly people, do you understand? "

The crowd nodded again.

Zhao Yun said again: "Brother, after I killed the city wall, you immediately opened the city gate and let our army in."

Zhang Xiu nodded.

Finally, Zhao Yun ordered Hu Che'er again, saying: "After we go up, you immediately lead the rest of the soldiers back to this place. After the city gate is opened, you and Lei Xu will lead the troops into the city together."

Hu Che'er and Lei Xu didn't dare to shout loudly, they both nodded in unison.

Waited for about half an hour.

Zhao Yun guessed that the soldier picking up the torch had relaxed his vigilance, so he said in a low voice, "Let's go."

The moment the first [-] soldiers received the order, they quickly spread out and crawled towards the bottom of the city, one after another gathered under the city.Everyone built a high human wall one by one.

Zhao Yun was like a spirit ape, he climbed up the city wall in no time, and saw that there were only six soldiers nearby who could endanger his plan, so he stepped forward without hesitation, and one of them was a sword. These soldiers didn't even have a chance to call, so they were given by Zhao Yun. Sent into the underworld.

The night is still very hazy, and there are countless shadows whirling in the hazy vision.Not a while away, someone crawled over to support, and Zhao Yun signaled Hu Che'er to go back when the number reached 200.

Due to the loose defense, Zhao Yun and his soldiers were much more relaxed, almost as if no one was defending.

As time passed, Zhao Yun became more and more excited. The longer the time dragged on, it meant that Li Tong had not been discovered, and the situation would be more favorable to them.

At this moment, near the government office in the center of the city, flames suddenly burst into the sky.Then the smoke billowed.The originally very quiet night was suddenly broken by bursts of chaotic shouts.The shouts of soldiers, the sound of horns, and the sound of military drums appeared from time to time, which seemed chaotic and chaotic.

Zhao Yun made a decisive decision and shouted loudly: "If your grandpa Lei is here again, quickly hand over the money, or you will all be slaughtered." The handsome Zhao Yun seemed a bit nondescript when he said such words.

Zhao Yun went up to the city wall and carried out the final encirclement and suppression of the remaining soldiers on the city wall.

Zhang Xiu also opened the city gate, and Hu Che'er easily entered Tangyi.

Tangyi County was already in chaos, with flames raging everywhere. Li Tong led the soldiers, crossed left and turned right, and set fires around the government office.

A group of soldiers surrounded a general in the center of the government office. His headgear was crooked, his armor was a bit messy, and his face was very flustered. He commanded the soldiers to fight the fire in a disorganized manner, with a hint of fear in his eyes.

The sound of killing in the city was loud, and there were flashes of swords and swords. Most of the defenders had just woken up from their dreams. They crawled out in a daze before they were fully awake.

Some soldiers who have the energy to kill the enemy, and because they have been absent from the battlefield for a long time, do not train actively at ordinary times. It fell down a lot in two strokes.

Zhao Yun, Li Tong, Zhang Xiu, Hu Che'er and others each led the soldiers on a rampage, without a single general under their command.

Seeing such a situation, the leader of the defenders was already frightened out of his wits, and his heart was broken. How could he have the courage to stay?
The battle almost turned to Zhao Yun. While shouting the slogan of robbers, everyone killed the resisting enemy.Gradually fewer and fewer defenders.

Zhao Yun occupied Tangyi County.

It is a service to kill five hundred enemies and take a city.The side only paid the slight price of dozens of deaths and hundreds of injuries, which can be said to be a great victory.More importantly, he successfully occupied Tangyi as a bandit, which was a crucial step for attacking Guangling County.
