Chapter 1289 The capital of Piao Kingdom

There are still many capable people under General Mi Peng. They have lived in the jungle for a long time, and a rope is their main tool for making a living. Therefore, climbing up the city wall along this rope is very simple for many people.

There are no roads in the mountains and forests. Even if it is a small river, it is very likely that you will have to go around for dozens of miles. Therefore, when encountering this situation, many people will let themselves pass by relying on a rope like a swing. It may go around for dozens of miles.

Mainly because there are dangers everywhere in the woods. Even if you take one more step, you may not be able to return home. Therefore, everyone has a very deep relationship with the rope. It is like a part of their own body, and the same is true for climbing the city wall. In this way, from the time when the general gave the order to now, more than a dozen people have already touched it in just one cup of tea.

The first step was considered a success, and the people below also breathed a sigh of relief, and then the second wave of people continued to rush up. The general was not a fool. He could only go up to a dozen people at a time. Just these ten people wanted to go up. Opening the city gates would be tantamount to suicide.

Therefore, at least hundreds of people must go up before they can slowly lurk toward the city gate. The road going down from the city wall must be full of people. There is no way to get past there. The only way is to rely on surprise attacks to kill them. past.

Of course, there are some capable people among these people. If you really can't kill them, just pull up the rope, and then follow the rope down to the city. As for whether you can reach the city gate, it depends on luck.

The general chooses some strong soldiers, and at the same time they know the situation in the city very well. If he chooses some soldiers who do not understand the situation, even if they run near the city gate, they may not know how to open the city gate. Open it. This is different from the door of ordinary people. There are still some mechanisms inside.

The fourth group of people had also gone up. The general looked nervously at both sides of the city wall. The situation was still similar to before. The torches above were very dim and many soldiers had gone to bed.

"General, please don't worry that the ones on duty here tonight are the Kuizi Battalion. They are also the most unpopular group of people. It is said that the company's military pay is still one month short, and they are unwilling to sacrifice their lives for the king."

Seeing that the general was a little worried, Wu Thein Sein quickly told what he knew about the situation, hoping to make the general relax a little.

"Now it's not a question of whether to fight or not. As long as there is a little noise, we may not be able to fight in. At least we have to fight in. Even if we are driven out by these people, we have also made a noise. Tang Taisun also knows about our efforts."

General Mi Peng said it very bleakly. After all, he was a great general of a country. Now he is acting for food, and he has to use the lives of his subordinates to act. I have to say it is sad, but in the face of the Tang Empire When you are in trouble, you can only do this and have no ability to resist at all.

In fact, everyone in the army is a little regretful now. If we had known this result, why did we fight so hard with the Tang Dynasty army in Wacheng? If we had surrendered directly at that time, we would have so many troops under our control. His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun of the Tang Dynasty could give us an official, and his life would even be slightly better than now.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world. They have already taken a wrong step, and there is no room for them to regret it now. They can only keep going.

"Enemy attack..."

There was a loud noise in the distance. It should be the stairs going down from the city wall. The general there secretly screamed that it was broken, and his men became nervous. In the end, they were discovered by the people on the city wall. This is normal. There are thousands of soldiers on the city wall. It is basically impossible for you to open the door without anyone noticing.

"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow quickly."

The archers on the city wall also woke up. When they saw the crowd of people under the city, they immediately called on their companions to release arrows.

"General, retreat quickly."

The soldiers guarding the city are condescending, and they can easily hurt the soldiers below the city wall, but if the people below the city wall want to shoot their bows and arrows, it may not be that easy, and it will be even harder to hit accurately.

"well."

General Mi Peng sighed helplessly. He could only lead his men to retreat backwards, at least beyond the range of bows and arrows. Otherwise, he would wait to be called out on the spot, and we would start a counterattack. It won't have much effect and can only be beaten passively.

The battle on the city wall began to become fierce, and a large number of soldiers rushed towards the rebels. Although they were not favored by the king and even lost a month's military pay, in this case, if you don't fight hard, They could be killed at any time, and there weren't many people on the other side coming up. With less than a hundred people, they could still see victory.

The people the general found were not weak in force. They did not fight. They only had one goal, which was to open the city gate quickly. If they could open the city gate, there would be a chance.

"General, look, there seems to be a fire on the other side of the city gate."

Looking in from the outside, it seems that there is really a fire over the city gate, but the fire is not very big.

"It should be that they couldn't open the city gate, so they poured some boiling oil on the city wall, hoping to burn the city gate with the boiling oil."

The people under my command immediately guessed that the city gates of Piao State were all made of wood. Although they were covered with iron edges, if they were poured with oil, the entire city gate could be burned down. Our soldiers who went up This is the only way.

"Immediately go find some oil and pour oil on the city gate from the outside. The arrows on the city must be lit."

General Mi Peng immediately changed his strategy. It was no longer possible to rely on others to open the door from the inside, but we could attack from both inside and outside and burn the entire city gate.

"Quickly put out the fire, hurry up and find water."

The battle on the city wall is coming to an end. There aren't many people left on General Mi Peng's side. A few people have been eliminated now, but these people did something big. They set the city gate on fire. , because of the boiling oil, it is not that simple to put out the fire.

"Archers, don't move. Shoot everyone who comes to me."

Seeing people approaching from outside the city, the general guarding the city immediately issued an order. The fire fighting could be left to others. To deal with the people approaching from outside the city, they could only rely on archers, and others could not use their strength. (End of chapter)
