Liang Zongyi heard someone chasing him from behind, and turned around to look, and was shocked to see that the rider was so close.

Cui Mancheng was an expert in equestrian skills. He slashed with his sword and killed the two infantrymen. He then repeatedly urged his horse, and in the blink of an eye he was on par with Liang Zongyi.

Liang Zongyi turned his head and looked over, and saw Cui Mancheng holding a big knife in his hand, showing a weird smile to him, his liver and gallbladder were split, and he wanted to speak, but Cui Mancheng didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and slashed at him with the sword, the sword was powerful and powerful.

.

Although Liang Zongyi was from the Liaodong Army, he was not a general, but a civil servant. When he saw the sword coming, he was so horrified that he didn't know how to respond. When he heard a scream, Cui Mancheng had already slashed his shoulder with the sword.

This knife was extremely vicious. He was struck once on the shoulder and his flesh and blood were mixed.

Liang Zongyi gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and clamped the horse's belly with all his strength, but Cui Mancheng slashed at him one after another. Although each slash was not fatal, Liang Zongyi's skin and flesh were ripped open with each slash, and blood dripped.

After seven or eight blows, Liang Zongyi could no longer hold on. His whole body collapsed and he fell off the horse.

Cui Mancheng got off his horse and ran a few steps, turned around, and turned back. Liang Zongyi was already lying on the ground, with seven or eight cuts on his body, dripping with blood, rolling on the ground, and wailing.

Cui Mancheng then raised his head and looked towards the restaurant, only to see that several riders were already chasing him. The person in front of him, his armor flashing with cold light, was none other than Yuwen Chengchao.

"Lord Commander!" Cui Mancheng perked up when he saw Yuwen Chengchao and stepped forward to greet him.

"Master Jiu!" Yu Wencheng came over, cupped his hands and said with a smile, "You have made a great contribution this time!"

Cui Mancheng also smiled and said: "I don't dare. It is Cui's responsibility to follow the general to suppress the rebellion." He raised his arm and pointed the blade of his knife at Liang Zongyi, who was rolling on the ground, and said: "This is Liang Zongyi, the governor of Yingping County. He wanted to escape and was killed."

I cut down the horse."

Yu Wencheng waved his hand and said: "Tie them up!" Then some cavalry came forward and tied Liang Zongyi up.

"Master Jiu worked tirelessly to lurk in Guangning City himself. I will definitely remember this favor in my heart." Yu Wen Cheng said seriously.

Xingluotang, founded by Cui Mancheng, is named after a martial arts school, but it is actually a martial arts force.

Although the main hall of Xingluo Hall is in western Liaoning, there are also branches of martial arts schools in other places. Firstly, they can recruit disciples to develop their power. Secondly, they can better inquire about various information.

After the Long Rui Army stationed in Guangning City, Liaoxi Province, Cui Mancheng and Yuwen Chengchao got to know each other. The two of them were full of martial arts and had similar interests, so they had quite a lot of contacts in private, and their friendship was not bad.

After Huangfu Yunzhao settled in Shunjin City, Yuwen Chengchao secretly made a plan with Cui Mancheng to use Xingluotang's power in Shunjin City to collect various intelligence in the city. However, if there was an opportunity, he would disrupt the order in the city and use

Notices and letters were used to sow discord between the gentry and common people in the city and the Liaodong Army.

However, Cui Mancheng took the initiative to ask for help and personally lurked in Shunjin City to preside over these affairs.

"Your Majesty, you're welcome." Cui Mancheng said, "Has the general entered the city?"

Yuwen Chengchao immediately said: "We have entered the city. I have the order of the general. After entering the city, I will go directly to the county governor's house and arrest the county governor Liang Zongyi." He glanced at Liang Zongyi, who was already tied up, and said: "Liang Zongyi has already arrived.

Prisoner, the next task is to control the granary in the city."

"I know where the granary is." Cui Mancheng said immediately: "Lord Commander, I will take you there."

"Okay." Yuwen Cheng said: "Jiuye, your men will stay here at the restaurant. In addition, I will leave thirty cavalrymen. Together, they will protect the people in the restaurant. There will be soldiers and horses from the rear.

Come, there will be no problem at the restaurant. Could you please go to the granary with us?"

Cui Mancheng didn't waste any time. After making arrangements, he immediately led Yuwen Chengchao to the granary.

Yuwen Chengchao was ordered to lead 400 dragon-scaled cavalry to attack the prefecture and then control the granary. Since Liang Zongyi had been captured, he naturally led the troops to control the granary.

Shunjincheng's granary is in Nancheng.

In fact, the map of Shunjin City had long been drawn by people from Xingluotang and handed over to Long Ruijun. After obtaining the map, they copied it into multiple copies, and many generals had one copy.

Naturally, Yuwen Chengchao also had a map of Shunjincheng.

Important streets and various important strongholds are described in detail on the map. Whether it is the governor's mansion, the governor's mansion, the granary, the armory, or even the barracks in the city, etc., they are all marked in detail.

Yuwen Chengchao roughly knew the location of the granary, but with Cui Mancheng leading the way, he was able to find the location accurately and quickly.

Cui Mancheng was lurking in the city, so he naturally knew all about these important locations.

More than three hundred elite cavalry followed Yuwen Chengchao and Cui Mancheng through the streets and alleys, choosing the shortest distance to head to the granary.

Both Qin Xiao and Yuwen Chengchao knew that there was a large amount of grain and grass stored in Shunjin City before entering the city.

Once the city was breached, Huangfu Yunzhao was almost powerless to recover.

Under this situation, what Qin Xiao was most worried about was that Huangfu Yunzhao was so upset that in order to prevent Long Rui's army from getting the food and grass in the city, he simply burned down the granary.

Therefore, before entering the city, it was already planned. Once entering the city, Yuwen Chengchao's first priority was to protect the granary.

And according to the map, after entering the city from the east gate, you have to reach the granary in Nancheng and pass by the Sheriff's Mansion. Since this is the case, you can take the Sheriff's Mansion directly on the way.

Although there are hundreds of thousands of residents in Shunjincheng, except for the sergeants from both sides, the people in the streets and alleys are hiding in their houses and dare not go out.

The fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond.

Everyone knows this truth.

Even if there is no curfew in the city, the people will definitely be unwilling to go out at night when the city is besieged.

But even so late at night, few people in the city could really sleep.

"Lord Lieutenant, that's the granary over there." Crossing a street, Cui Mancheng pointed to a tall building in front of him and said, "The granary is guarded day and night. There are more than twenty people in one shift, taking turns to guard the granary."

There was silence over the granary.

"There is an ambush!" Yu Wen Chengchao stared at the main entrance of the granary in the dark alley, where two soldiers were guarding. He whispered to Cui Mancheng beside him: "There are killing sounds in the city, but here there is a dead silence. It's not appropriate.

Common sense. If you look at those two guards, they look into the warehouse from time to time, something must be wrong."

Cui Mancheng is very experienced in the world, so he naturally saw the flaw, nodded and said: "I don't know how many people are ambushing inside, what should we do?"

"Nie Laoben, Gao Changdou." Yuwen Chengchao turned around and said to the two people behind him: "You two each take fifty cavalry and quietly go around to the side door of the warehouse. Don't act rashly, and don't be discovered by the enemy. Wait until you hear this from the main entrance.

Fighting on the side, they immediately broke in through the side door, surrounded them on both sides, and killed them from behind, catching them off guard."

The two of them didn't waste any time, each ordered their troops, and secretly outflanked the side door from the two wings.

Yu Wen Chengchao did not act rashly. After waiting for a long time, he estimated that the manpower on both wings was in place. He turned around and ordered: "Come with a few people and come with me."

Cui Mancheng knew that Yuwen Chengchao was trying to frighten the enemy, so he immediately said: "Commander Lieutenant, I will bring someone up first."

"you?"

"Don't worry, Lieutenant, I know what to do."

Yuwen Chengchao thought for a moment and nodded.

Cui Mancheng shook the reins of his horse and walked out of the alley. Yu Wencheng gave a few instructions, and dozens of riders immediately followed him.

Cui Mancheng led ten cavalrymen and rushed directly to the main entrance of the warehouse. When the two sergeants guarding the warehouse saw this, they were a little panicked. One of them had the courage to say sharply: "Who are you? The warehouse is a big place, and no one can get close to it.

Get out of here!"

"We are the Long Rui Army." Cui Mancheng said loudly: "General Qin entered the city to suppress the rebellion and sent us to take over the granary and open the granary door."

The two sergeants looked at each other, but Cui Mancheng didn't talk nonsense. He stepped forward and slashed at a soldier with his sword. The soldier thrust his spear and stabbed him. The sword flashed and Cui Mancheng's sword had already cut the spear into two pieces.

, then he swung his sword diagonally and struck the sergeant on the neck.

Another sergeant was shocked and shouted: "The enemy is coming, the enemy is coming!"

Just after shouting twice, there was a "pop" sound, but a cavalry member had already killed him directly with a bow and arrow.

At this moment, the warehouse door suddenly opened wide. Behind the warehouse door, a group of Liaodong soldiers were crowded in darkness. One person in the lead, without saying a word, brandished his sword and shouted: "Kill!" He rushed out first, and the Liaodong soldiers behind him also shouted.

He came out to kill him.

When Yu Wen Chengchao saw this, he didn't talk nonsense, and shouted like a bell: "Kill!" He urged his horse to rush over, and the two hundred riders behind him also rushed over with shouts.

There were quite a few soldiers and horses ambushed in the warehouse, and the person who led the troops to kill them was actually Liaodong Colonel Xu Shen.

Xu Shen was originally guarding the south gate. He had seen a large number of enemy troops outside the south gate move to the east, so he knew that the enemy troops might be moving to the east gate.

He sent someone to report to Huangfu Yunzhao that Huangfu Yunzhao had problems getting from east to west to the east gate. He immediately ordered Xu Shen to dispatch troops and horses from the south gate to the east gate for reinforcements. By the time Xu Shen received the military order, Cui Bo had already opened the east gate.

, Long Ruijun's army entered the city, and it was impossible to go and defend the east gate.

Xu Shen knew that if he continued to the east gate with others, he would undoubtedly be falling into a trap.

He is also considered a shrewd person, and he knows clearly that once the enemy breaks the city, he will definitely send people to control the granary and armory as soon as possible. The granary is in the south city, not far from the south gate, so Xu Shen makes a prompt decision and leads the people

Go directly to the granary and set up an ambush in the granary, waiting for the enemy to enter.

The fact was as Xu Shen expected, the enemy army sent people to seize the granary. He led many people behind the granary door. When he heard the noise outside, he opened the granary door without hesitation and led the people to kill them.

Cui Mancheng's dozen cavalrymen were in close combat with the Liaodong soldiers. Yuwen Chengchao's men rushed over to support him. This was what Xu Shen had expected. After all, the enemy army could not seize the granary with only a dozen men.

Although Yuwen Chengchao came with more than two hundred cavalry, Xu Shen was still very calm.

He ambushed six to seven hundred people inside the granary, guarding each door of the granary. Behind the front hatch, there were about 400 people in ambush. Their strength was no less than that of Yuwen Chengchao, and they were all regular Liaodong soldiers. The ones in front were
