On a temporary watchtower built specifically to monitor these small courtyards, several people stood on it and used telescopes to carefully watch everything happening below.
The leader said: "You guys watch here, I will inform the general!"
Then the leader immediately walked down from the watchtower.
Xin Honggao quickly got the news and launched a bunch of fireworks into the sky as a special signal.
These Zhao soldiers who had just dug the tunnel naturally didn't know what this signal meant. They thought who was so naughty? There was a war going on outside, and fireworks were still being set off inside.
The Zhao soldiers who dug the tunnel also quickly sent people to tell Jiang Hong the results of their efforts for several days.
The remaining people sat up and guarded the abandoned courtyard, while doing simple cover work at the tunnel entrance.
As long as the general gets the news, he will immediately send troops into the city from the tunnel entrance. At that time, they can collapse these rebellions from within.
Jiang Hong reacted immediately after receiving the news. After digging for such a long time, two tunnels were finally dug through!
How dare you rebel under the banner of King Ming and General Long?
It’s simply overestimating one’s capabilities!
At this time, Jiang Hongdu in the big tent had already begun to think about what kind of reward the court would give him if he defeated the rebels in Shuzhou!
The second annihilation of King Ming completely cut off the rebellion of King Ming's followers.
This is simply a great achievement!
Granting a title shouldn’t be a problem!
Thinking like this, Jiang Hong became even more motivated, and immediately sent out the elite he selected from the 200,000-strong army, along the tunnel into Shuzhou City, to cooperate with them inside and outside.
After receiving the news, the elite soldiers of the imperial army immediately led the way towards the tunnel by the soldiers digging the tunnel.
Jiang Hong also immediately ordered: "At any cost, capture Shuzhou City! The entire siege general will also go to supervise the battle!"
The deputy general immediately stopped Jiang Hongdao and said, "General, Youdao is the son of a rich man. He cannot sit down in court. The siege army is unpredictable. You are the commander-in-chief of an army, so let the last general go."
Jiang Hong immediately refused: "What do you know? Haven't you seen that Eunuch Bai is still serving as a supervisor in our army? Seeing that the city of Shuzhou is about to be captured, how can I express myself by being huddled in the camp at this time?"
Are you going to take the lead?"
Really, this lieutenant general has no eyesight at all. After coming out this time, he contradicted his words again and again. He deserves to be able to only be a lieutenant general for so many years.
At this time, Jiang Hong walked out of the tent and came to the front line, watching the increasingly fierce battle, and his heart was surging.
One general's success will lead to tens of thousands of bones being withered. As long as we can capture Shuzhou City, all these sacrifices will be worth it!
The elite selected by Jiang Hongjing had already entered the tunnel under the leadership of spies.
It has to be said that this tunnel was very narrow at first and only after walking a hundred steps did it barely reach the entrance of the cave, and the first person climbed out of the cave.
Followed by the second and third.
The people who climbed out also immediately started to be vigilant around them, and they would retreat immediately if something changed.
Fortunately, the General has the foresight to choose the abandoned house here very well. It is rarely inhabited on weekdays. Now the people in the city cannot go out unless necessary and are controlled by the army, so no one can find them!
So one after another people crawled out from inside.
As long as the elites this time can crawl out halfway, after hitting 500 people, they can rush out and bloom from the inside, catching them off guard!
Talents at the back are constantly coming out of the tunnel to supplement them, growing stronger as they fight.
Moreover, they dug through two courtyards. There are 500 people in one courtyard, and the two courtyards add up to 1,000 people!
Now that the entire Shuzhou City's attention is on the three walls, how can we realize that an enemy has sneaked into the city?
A thousand people can sometimes be the deciding factor in victory or defeat.
As long as they can divert the attention of the people in the city, the pressure on the general will be reduced.
If these people can take advantage of the siege to knock down the government office and capture all the high-ranking rebels, then most of the credit for this battle will be theirs, and they won't be rewarded by the time!
Moreover, after they knocked down the state government, the defending army in the city would be in chaos if they lost their command. You must know that an army without a commander is not even worth the same number of pigs!
By then the entire Shuzhou City will be under their control.
These people were thinking in their minds with various thoughts while waiting for the remaining people to crawl out.
Just when they were almost there and ready to take action, they suddenly saw a few small luminous dots flying over from the sky...
Then this small light spot became bigger and bigger...
Could it be good luck? Is it a good omen?
It wasn't until they were about to fall that they could clearly see what little light spot there was. It was clearly a can with a glowing tail!
boom!
boom!
boom!
…
More and more roars exploded in this abandoned courtyard. The abilities of these elites carefully selected by Jiang Hongjing seemed so insignificant and weak in front of firearms at this moment.
There were even people who were hit in the head by thunderbolts flying towards them as soon as they climbed out of the tunnel, and then exploded in the tunnel.
Some of Zhao's elite who were close to the cave entrance also died.
These people can't figure it out no matter what. Haven't their tunnels been discovered?
Why is this happening?
Of course, the elites who dug a tunnel in another abandoned mansion and lurked in were the same as them.
The elite who had captured the depths in the tunnel but had not yet come out managed to save their lives, but hearing the roar of firearms coming from above, they had no idea. They only had one idea in their hearts, which was to escape from here as quickly as possible.
The farther away the better.
This bombing was a saturation bombing and was carried out three times.
By the time Xin Honggao and Zhao Huaiyi led their troops to the two abandoned courtyards, there were no more wailing people.
Although these people have better armor, surviving one round of thunder is the limit. They cannot survive three rounds.
Xin Honggao took some people to check the integrity of the tunnel, and the remaining people started putting out the fire with water bottles and splash tubes.
The wood in these abandoned houses has long been dry and rotten wood and can easily ignite.
Originally, Xin Honggao was thinking of using a round of kerosene. At this time, he just sighed that he was lucky that he didn't give this order. Based on the dryness of this house, if he used kerosene, he would probably be able to cover a large area.
