Late at night, the last rainy rain in the early summer swept the heat of the day

In Gaogang outside the city of Rhiwading, the strong wind was blowing big raindrops on Du Yu's face, and the tiny rain left behind the gaps in the fat man's scales.

The rain wet the fat man's whole body, but his eyes were staring at the north gate of Jiwading City

A shiny silver snake twisted across the sky

The flash of lightning shone on the faces of 2,000 light cavalrymen in the dense forest of the hills. They were faces with solemn expressions, allowing the pouring raindrops to hit their armor, and white splashes appeared in pieces.

In the silent silence, only the sound of raindrops falling on the ground was heard.

"Sir, look, our people are sending a signal!"

Caesar Soro, beside the fat man, pointed at the shaking flames of the north gate of Jiwading in the distance and shouted

Seeing the trajectory of the flames shaking at the north gate of Riwading City, Du Yu, standing on Gaogang, showed a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

The circular shaking torch track, although it was as dark as ink, the bright fire was still clearly visible on the distant hills.

"I want to be independent even at this level! You are destined to be synonymous with history tonight"

The fat man secretly despised himself, as if he felt the anger in his master's heart. The fat man's war horse under his crotch took a few steps back

In this era of castles prevailing

The huge defense range and low walls doom the city's external defense cannot be compared with the solid castle.

The relaxed defense of Jiwading City is much worse than the fat man expected.

This time, the fat man was ready to cut the mess quickly and uproot all the hostile forces in Rivading City with thunderous force.

"Cut the grass without removing the roots, it will grow again after the spring breeze blows!"

In order to gain an absolute advantage, the fat man not only used the Light Cavalry Regiment, but also transferred nearly 5,000 people to the Eighth Infantry Regiment.

Satsuma's elite troops gathered at the city of Jiwading, which is more than 50,000 people, even the city of Jiwading is more than enough to massacre the city.

Many important moments are often simple

This "Blood Rain Night" that later historians have never been able to figure out the truth kicked off with Du Yu's light wave of his hand.

"The whole army assaults! Each team will execute according to the prior plan! If there are resistance in the middle, kill them without any slightest."

At the command of the fat man, countless black shadows rushed out of the dense forest of the hills.

Under the cover of heavy rain in the dark night, like a pack of wolves rushing towards the north gate of Rivading City like a hunting group

"You guys come out and see, what are those things?"

A city defense soldier who came out to pee shook a few times in the cold night and suddenly found a large group of black shadows that were rapidly approaching Rivading City not far outside the city. There was a faint sound of thunder shaking in the sound of water drops from the raindrops.

"What's the name? I've never seen those smugglers come into the city in the middle of the night. I guess they got a lot of good things this time. If Baron Gitsey knew that you saw his smuggled goods, he wouldn't let Captain Keane peel you!"

A dozen city defense soldiers who were awakened in the city road looked at the yelling soldier with displeasure, scolded him a few times, turned around and fell asleep.

In Jiwading, smuggling at night is common, so naturally no one cares about the surprise of this soldier.

"These damn smugglers come every time they come in the middle of the night, making them sleep uneasy."

When the soldier heard his colleague's scolding, he felt that he was fussing. He looked at the black shadow that was approaching the north gate below with anger. He spitted on the battlements, raised his pants and prepared to walk towards the city wall passage.

Suddenly a dazzling light flashed in front of his eyes, and then a metallic impact sound came from the city gate below.

"What's going on? It's not peaceful in the middle of the night!"

The city guard accidentally glanced at the city gate, and his whole body was cold, his hands holding his pants unconsciously released, and his pants fell to the ground.

I saw under the torches of the city gate, cavalry wearing iron armor quickly passed through the spacious city gate of the north gate like black ghosts.

The light that had just passed by the city guard was the reflection of the city gate fire on the cavalry armor

The panicked city guards then realized that the large group of black shadows he had just seen should be these cavalry rushing into the city.

He was brave enough to lie on the battlements with his bare butt, and he looked at it, and his face was pale and his hands and feet were limp.

The black heads at the city gate were like clusters of ants. These iron-armored cavalry held a long sword full of cold light in their hands, and passed through the city gate silently but murderously.

The chests of the cavalry armor were inlaid with a white thorn-like pattern as big as a fist, which was very eye-catching in the light of the torch.

"These are all Samurians! Samurians have entered the city!"

This idea shocked the city guards.

The rumors that Jiwading City will be independent from Satsuma have already spread throughout the city guards

"Defend the Kujits, and even more so, the Satsuma people! The Kujits will steal our treasures and women, while the Satsuma people will steal our heads!"

This is what the captain of the city guard said during his inspection every day. Although he did not recognize the rumors of Jiwading's independence, he has proved the truth and falsehood of the rumors in disguise.

For the grassroots soldiers, it doesn’t matter who is the lord. Whoever gives money to eat will be the master.

Just as the city guards were staring at the cavalry entering the city, a short feathered crossbow arrow suddenly shot into the city guard's throat from the city below not far away, and the body swayed and fell from the city wall.

Caesar Solon, the archer,

With his Silver Knight's strength, he could clearly see things within 50 meters at night. The white butt of the city guard was too eye-catching on the city wall.

"People who know the truth generally don't live long!"

Caesar Zoro's face was solemn, putting the cavalry crossbow arrows in his hand back into the weapon trough, and shouting to the light cavalry who had already rushed into the north gate.

"The first team went to occupy the Arrow Tower, the second team was responsible for cutting off the city wall passage, and the third team immediately occupied the suspension bridge."

The light cavalry who entered the city gate immediately divided into three teams to rush to the city wall passage according to the plan.

Du Yu had already learned about the defensive layout of Jiwading City from the captured noble.

The walls of Jiwading are not high but four meters thick, which is enough to deal with all the rushing vehicles attempting to hit the walls, especially to defend against the attack of Satsuma Fortress, the Southern Alliance also spent a lot of money.

Not only were thirty large stone throwers arranged on the city wall, but a large number of defense facilities were set up.

In order to make up for the shortcomings of the low city wall, enough inside the wall passages where two horses pass side by side were dug into the city wall to transport troops. Even if the enemy temporarily attacked the city wall, they would be wiped out by reinforcements constantly coming out of the passage.

As long as the passage is not occupied, there is no wall. However, this internal passage has now become a fatal disadvantage of the city of Jiwading.

The Rivading Garrison, which was sheltering from the rain in the city wall passage, was unprepared to be attacked by the light cavalry. Many soldiers were easily chopped off their heads while sleeping, and some of the awake soldiers were also shot into hedgehogs by the crossbow arrows in the hands of the light cavalry.

The blood flowed into a river of blood in the inner passage of the city wall, and the 300 garrisons were slaughtered almost without resistance. With the occupation of the suspension bridge winch,

The other six suspension bridges outside the city of Zhwading slowly fell in the dark, and heavy armored infantry all over the mountains rushed towards the city gate from a distance.

That was Crolisart's Eighth Infantry Regiment, with a total of 5,000 heavily armed heavy infantrymen.

The occupation of the archer tower at the gate of the city wall occurred in an accident. The first team rushed up encountered the tenacious obstacle of the archers on the archer tower.

The City Gate Arrow Tower is an independent existence of the city wall. It is connected with the thick city wall and has its own independent second-level defensive wall. No one can enter without breaking the defensive iron gate. It is like a small castle.

Often in siege battles, the arrow tower is the last fallen fortress

The arrow tower in Jiwading City is three times that of an ordinary castle. Originally, the arrow tower with only 20 people was only placed, but in Jiwading it became 70 archers, which caused a considerable loss to the first team preparing to attack.

The light cavalry did not have a large shield for siege. The rain of arrows shot from the arrow tower made the light cavalry helpless and could only use the light crossbow arrows in their hands to shoot against the arrow tower.

The Rhivadin Arrow Tower with solid shooting holes is not effective. It often takes dozens of arrows but fails to shoot one of them.

Such embarrassing results made the arrows on the arrow tower even happier. Occasionally, you can hear swearing verbs coming from the arrow tower.

Although the light cavalry below were full of anger, they could only stare blankly. Suddenly, who made a fool of himself and cursed the archers on the arrow tower.

The female family members who were both greeting each other, and the embarrassing confrontation continued until the arrival of the Eighth Infantry Regiment led by Crowisart.

More than a dozen heavy hammer soldiers holding large shields moved to the bottom of the arrow tower with their faces leisurely facing the rain of arrows.

As the arrowheads knocked on the shield, the first defense of the arrow tower was easily broken with the city-breaking cone in his hand. The closed iron door of the arrow tower was knocked into an iron hole, and more than a dozen large indented holes were distributed near the lock of the iron door.

The heavy infantry kicked open the already ragged iron door, revealing the terrified pale faces of the archers inside.

The matter behind was much simpler. The heavy infantry swarmed in and cut the rivatin archers with only daggers into meat. If it weren't for strict orders, the light cavalry, who were full of fire, almost burned the entire arrow tower with the torches in their hands.

At this time, the residence of the Marquis Hesalitai, who was not aware of the Samoy army's army had entered the city, was brightly lit.

Hundreds of luxurious carriages outside the Marquis' Mansion filled the lawn in front of the door, and a luxurious banquet was held at the Marquis' Mansion.

In order to welcome this distinguished guest from the royal capital, Hesalite invited all the well-known figures in the city of Zhwading.

Hesalite knew that Jivadin would be independent from Satsuma, not only to rely on his own strength, but also to obtain the support of the capital, otherwise he would be charged with the rebels.

Only when the local forces and the royal capital put pressure on each other can the silly fat man Satsuma have to swallow this glass of bitter wine

Whether this Kyoto guest can be pleased tonight will be the key to Jiwading's independence

"As long as this distinguished guest is willing to say a few words to me in Kyoto, I will become the first governor of Jiwading City."

Looking at the lively scene of the crowds passing through the hall, thinking of his bright future, Hesalite's eyes were fascinated

"Master, the servants just reported that Master Lisa Hebang had already entered the gate! But at the door I met the Marquis of Sahir who had been waiting there. Now the two are chatting in the back garden! We also asked our servants to leave."

The housekeeper walked in from the side door of the hall with an ugly face and whispered to report to Hesaritae.

"College chat? I even drove away the servant"

Hesalita's face suddenly changed, and his drunkenness just now turned into cold sweats. Thinking that he had spent so much effort to invite this big man from Kyoto, but now he was picked up by the Marquis Saji, he said in anger.

"Let's go with me and see what the old fox Saji wants to do!"
