1192 The bet won

 "What can I do? Cold salad!"

Cui Jingzhi looked at Butler Lu who was running down the city wall in a hurry, and couldn't help but cursed secretly in his heart!

Didn't Yang Wen Zhang just say that Xiao Hou served the country and the people and was an unparalleled hero? Why was he afraid of opening a door for heroes now?

Of course, he was just thinking about these words in his mind, but he still couldn't say them out.

If you really want to talk about how much risk there is in opening the city gate, Cui Jingzhi knows this very well, and Yang Wenwen probably also knows it very well.

But what can he do now?

To avoid risks? Shut Xiao Han out and let him fend for himself?

In that case, not to mention what will happen if the imperial court finds out later, even in terms of morality and reason, it will not be able to get through it!

Therefore, Xiao Han, he cannot give up!

Cui Jingzhi is gambling now!

I bet Xiao Han was not captured...

I bet even if he is captured, the enemy will not come too many...

I bet even if there are enough enemies, they can close the city gate...

Well... Poor Cui Jingzhi, even his extravagant hopes are being reduced again and again! As long as things don't develop to the worst, then he feels that he can accept everything!

As for what the fat man called about returning home with a great victory, Cui Jingzhi never believed it, not even a little bit!

The heavy city gate was opened a crack, and the unoiled door shaft made a grinding sound, which was particularly harsh in the silent night.

In ancient times, all city gates opened inwards!

When Xiao Han first joined the army, he once wondered: Why don't these city gates open outwards? It seems that if they open outwards, they can better resist the destruction of siege equipment such as car crashes and battering posts.

At that time, Xiao Han, who was full of doubts, mentioned this problem to Xiao Lizi, but he only got a pair of blank eyes. He didn't even want to talk to him, and just patted his butt and left, as if if he stayed with him for a while, he would be infected.

Like an idiot.

Xiao Han, who was confused, didn't give up and asked Liu Hongji again.

Who knew it would be even worse this time, not only did I receive a pair of white eyes bigger than Xiao Lizi's again, but also the other party's caring and idiot-like expression...

This made Xiao Han go a little crazy.

He could accept being despised by Xiao Lizi. After all, he was from the Guanlong family, and his ancestors had once been in the Dazhu Kingdom, and were famous for a while.

But you are a bastard who came from a scoundrel background and can't read a word. Why do you still despise me?!

Immediately he was furious and dragged him to the city gate. Standing under the city gate, Xiao Han pointed fingers, spitted and talked to Liu Hongji about Newton's law and the relative action of forces.

As a result, he spoke 3,600 sentences eloquently, and Liu Hongji's only one sentence left him stunned instantly.

"Where is the door shaft? I ask you where to install the door shaft? If the door opens outward, I will have to attack the city with a car? Come some carpenters and remove your door shaft. Then your door will still be useless!

"Liu Hongji said this, with a pair of eyes that didn't know whether it was pity or contempt.

Since then, Xiao Han, whose soul has received a critical blow of 10,000 points, has been severely hit, and he no longer dares to speak nonsense in areas that he is not familiar with.

However, this is fine. The wisdom of the ancients, which has been passed down for thousands of years and has been tested by countless experiences, can’t get the help of a young boy like him who is dissatisfied with only one bottle and has a half-full bottle to give instructions?

These things seem a bit far away.

In reality, with the sound of the door creaking, under the city tower, the huge city gate slowly opened a gap for two or three people to walk in side by side.

At the same time, as the city gate opened, a little light shone through the gap, making the originally dark front of the city gate a little brighter.

The fat man stood in front of the city gate, stretched out his hand to block the light, then turned back and waved to Gouzi and the others, then passed through the city gate hole, acted as a vanguard, and strode into the city.

Inside the city gate, reflected by several braziers on the wall, the first thing Fatty saw was that there were dozens of strong men behind the city gate.

These people are standing behind the gate, pressing their bodies against the city gate! No wonder the gate won't budge even if it is opened a little.

"Hmph, a broken door is really a treasure?"

Stopping and looking at those people with disdain, the fat man couldn't help but have a hint of superior ridicule on his lips!

It's not his fault. Ever since powerful gunpowder was used on the battlefield, these seemingly solid city gates were just a slightly thicker piece of paper to the New Fire Guards.

A piece of paper is naturally nothing interesting to look at, even if the paper is indeed thicker.

The fat man's eyes moved away from these strong men, and then slid to the soldiers standing in the corridor.

These soldiers, who were densely packed in the corridor, were holding long spears and short spears, and looked nervously at the fat man covered in armor. The spearhead that was almost in front of the fat man was trembling slightly in the air, as if it might stab him at any time!

Fatty has seen a lot of soldiers, and even seen the Xuanjia Army, which is known as the strongest in the Tang Dynasty. It is the kind of powerful army that can truly defeat hundreds of thousands of people with hundreds of horses!

Therefore, these fierce-looking soldiers in front of him could not scare him at all. Even seeing the nervous look of these people made the fat man feel like laughing.

"No wonder the Marquis wants to go out of the city to fight. If he is with these idiots in the city, he will probably piss the Marquis to death!"

While the fat man was still slandering the Yangzhou soldiers, on the wall above his head, a row of archers were nervously pulling their bows into a half-moon shape, and the arrow tips were moving closer little by little with the distant team.

It wasn't until the team entered the dark city gate that the archers breathed a sigh of relief and gradually loosened their fingers that had drawn a bloody streak.

The two-stone military bow was injured like this before it was fully drawn, which shows how lax these people's training is.

However, at this time, no one had the intention to care about this. Just like these archers, Cui Jingzhi and Yang Wenwen were also holding on to the wall.

Just when Xiao Han entered the city, their hearts were almost in their throats!

They were afraid that countless men and horses would suddenly emerge from the darkness and seize this opportunity to attack the city gate and fall into Yangzhou.

Fortunately, the unknown enemy team did not make any changes and entered the city safely. Nothing happened as he thought about it!

"Close the door! Close the door quickly!"

Knowing that he had won the bet, Cui Jingzhi stood firm on the city wall and shouted down!

When I heard the creaking sound of the door closing, I realized that I was feeling cold all over my body.

It turned out that on this cold day, his back was covered in cold sweat due to nervousness!

The sweat soaked his clothes and clung to his flesh, making it sticky and uncomfortable.
