That night, outside the north gate of Haiyang City.
The upsetting heavy rain is still continuing to fall, so tonight, it will be another dark night without moonlight and starlight.
However, such a night also has some advantages.
That was to provide considerable concealment for the sneak attack by Hu Biao and others.
As long as you stay a little far away from the city wall and hide away from the dim light of the torches on the city wall, you can hide your body perfectly.
The sound of heavy rain could even cover up the faint sounds produced by Hu Biao and others when they were moving.
Therefore, the defenders on the city wall who were sheltering from the rain in their shacks had no idea that there were over fifty enemies right under their noses, and they had been lurking below for some time.
To be more precise, it was after Hu Biao decided to work hard here in Haiyang City.
The group members of Xuan Ge Camp took action for this goal.
After sorting everything out, the Xuan Ge camp, which had more than 500 people, only left a dozen or so injured people who were seriously acclimatized or had colds and fevers to look after the camp.
The rest of the people braved the heavy rain that didn't stop and walked all the way towards Haiyang City.
The journey along the way was only 37 kilometers. Because of the extremely bad weather, they had to walk for a whole afternoon even if they all had horses.
Fortunately, under such a heavy rain, the Jurchens in Haiyang City also became careless after successive great victories.
Not even the scouts came out to look around.
Let Hu Biao and the others successfully arrive outside Haiyang City after dark, without anyone noticing.
Now, under the command of Yang Dongli, Wu Zu, and A Li, the large troops of Xuan Ge Camp are hidden in a place about five miles outside the north gate.
The men shut up, their horses clenched their heads, and waited patiently for the news from Hu Biao and others that the entire army was dispatched.
Hu Biao took the remaining 23 netizens, as well as Yue Fei, Niu Gao, Tang Huai, and some elite warriors, making a total of 52 people.
He quietly touched the area very close to the city, waiting for the best opportunity to take action.
In addition, there are more than ten or twenty people on each of the other three sides of the city wall. When they launch an attack, they will launch a bluff and feint attack to contain the strength of the defenders...
****
"Hey! Does anyone know what time it is now?"
After taking off his left foot, which had a steel plate on the toe, and pouring out at least half a kilogram of muddy water inside, Hu Biao asked this question.
The pair of high-top tactical waterproof boots he wore were indeed quite waterproof under normal circumstances.
After all, it was Hu Biao who spent thousands of dollars to buy genuine professional military equipment.
The problem is, it also depends on the environment under which it is used. After several days of heavy rain, not only the rivers and lakes in Pingzhou area are now full.
Some slightly low-lying places now have large pools of water accumulated.
Looking at it at a glance during the day, you even have the illusion that you are in Zeguo.
If you accidentally step in, your entire calf will be submerged immediately; no matter how good or professional the waterproof boots are, they can't stand up to this.
Under Hu Biao's inquiry, the surrounding netizens suddenly looked at each other.
The main reason is that when the grandson of the system does not allow time-keeping tools such as watches to be brought over, people who have long been accustomed to the concept of time feel that it is really too troublesome.
Even veterans who have participated in many missions still feel a little uncomfortable.
When there is a moon, you can look at the moonlight to estimate the time; or you can light some kind of incense stick to tell the time.
But in the current weather, it is really impossible to estimate.
It's not right to say that, because as long as you have the will, there is still a way.
After thinking for a while, the wild ghost replied: "These people on the city wall should change shifts every two hours, that is, every four hours.
As for those patrols, they will show up every half an hour.
If the number of times in my memory is correct, the current time should be between 3:30 and 4:00 in the morning."
After hearing such a relatively reliable statement, Hu Biao felt confident; knowing that it was the time to launch their habitual night attack, it was almost time to take action.
For this reason, he whispered to the people around him and began to explain:
"Convey the order in a low voice one by one. When the patrol on the city wall appears, everyone silently counts 600 in their hearts and then prepares to fight."
Suddenly such an order was passed on one by one...
About seven or eight minutes later, a small group of Jurchen patrols who carefully covered their lanterns with umbrellas appeared in the sight of Hu Biao and others.
From this moment on, Hu Biao and others began to count down in their hearts.
After Hu Biao silently counted the number '600~' in his heart, Hu Biao stood up carefully to avoid the sound of the collision of armor plates on his body being suppressed by the sound of rain.
The other people saw the same thing and followed Hu Biao to the position close to the corner.
Hu Biao didn't even need to say anything. AT, Fengrui, Corn, and the team were waiting for the four sword and shield players, and they just took off a claw hook with a rope from their waist.
This thing is also in their plan to be used as a tool to assist in climbing the city.
As for why? These four people were the first to enter the city.
This is what the four of them strongly requested; in their words, they, the sword and shield wielders, will always be at the forefront in the Xuan Ge camp.
Even when climbing into the city, it was still like this.
The warehouse manager, the old snake, the singer, the war elephant, and the three daredevil archery masters all took out a bow string carefully wrapped in oilcloth from their arms and hung it on the bow.
On the body.
No way! There is simply no way to bring high-quality composite bowstrings from the modern plane.
Bowstrings made of animal sinew are not a big problem in normal use; but once they get wet by rain, the bow power will be greatly reduced over time.
Only by relying on this method can they maintain more than 90% of the bow power of a walking bow in their hands in a short period of time.
Even Er Pang held a throwing spear in his hand and inserted several throwing spears in front of him, ready for long-range support.
Given the low height of Haiyang City's walls, Er Pang's spear throwing can definitely play a supporting role.
In short, in a very short period of time, everyone spontaneously made all preparations for action.
Just waiting for Hu Biao to finally give the order to start.
So, under the gaze of everyone, Hu Biao clasped his hands together devoutly and muttered in his mouth:
"By the gods and Buddhas above, I use the Xuange Battalion team to save all the singles except me from staying single for ten years. I pray that this operation will go well~"
What the hell! If the current environment doesn’t allow it.
With the addition of Hu Biao, who issued the command to "take action" in an extremely thief-like manner, the senior Fengrui who was by his side at that time was about to step forward and beat the shit out of this desperate guy.
After taking a deep breath, Fengrui, AT and the other three swung the claw hooks in their hands and threw them towards the city wall.
At this moment, everyone's hearts were high, anticipating that the sound of the claws landing on the city wall would still be completely suppressed by the sound of rain and would not be heard by the people on the city wall.
Fortunately, I didn't hear a high-pitched sound after the claw hook was thrown up.
After breathing a little sigh of relief, Fengrui and others began to slowly pull the claw hook. As long as the claw hook successfully hooked the edge of the wall stack, they would climb up immediately...
