"Deploy defense!" Zhang Tiangang ordered. Now their task is only half completed. The truly arduous task is still to come, or it has just begun. If they can defend until Wang Junlin leads the 10,000 cavalry to seize the city, then they can
It's the time of true victory.
The expert members of the special forces team immediately got busy. The racks of defensive equipment that had been placed at the top of the city were pushed out, pointed at the direction inside the city, the bow strings were twisted, and bundles of crossbow arrows were piled aside. Each team member's
There were several swords and spears placed around him. The city gate was also gently opened. At this time, everything was ready and all that was needed was the east wind.
Zhang Tiangang stared at the south with wide eyes. Wang Junlin would lead more than 10,000 cavalry to attack from the south. Zhang Tiangang sat quietly in the corner, wiping his sword, his face calmed down.
"Everyone, take your place!" Zhang Tiangang ordered.
At this time, ten miles away, people scattered and sneaked in here while it was dark. The more than 10,000 cavalry who had just gathered were ready to go. Wang Junlin said sternly to Yuchi Jingde, Luo Shixin and Li Xuanba beside him: "Sneak to five
Within a few miles, we immediately launched a charge. Remember, you can go as fast as you can. The people in the special operations team can only hold out for us for as long as one stick of incense. Do you remember this?"
"Remember!" the three of them replied excitedly at the same time.
"Okay, check the equipment, shut up, pick up the horse, and let's go!"
At a distance of five miles, such a huge team of more than 10,000 cavalry could no longer conceal their formation. Following Wang Junlin's order, more than 10,000 cavalry moved their horses' hooves and charged forward quickly. At this speed, it only took
It takes only one stick of incense to reach the city.
Occasionally, soldiers fell off their horses because the terrain was unfamiliar and their horseshoes got stuck in pits, but the large group of men and horses roared forward without stopping, and 40,000 horse hooves stepped on the ground, making the ground tremble.
Pyongyang immediately boiled, alarm bells rang, and countless soldiers rushed out of the Tibetan Army Cave in panic. Except for the south gate, which was silent, several other city gates were brightly lit almost at the same time.
A city gate guard listened sleepily for a moment, his face changed drastically, and he loudly said: "Quick, quick, sound the alarm, the enemy is attacking from the south, the south gate!"
"Yes!" A soldier agreed, quickly descended from the city, and flew away on horseback.
"Leave half of the people, and the rest will immediately follow me to support the South City Gate!" The guard shouted loudly, picked up his sword, and ran along the city wall towards the South City Gate.
Hearing the sound of galloping horse hooves, Zhang Tiangang jumped up and shouted: "The time has come, brothers, cut off the ropes of the suspension bridge!"
The two masters of the special forces who had been waiting by the rope for a long time raised their axes and dropped them. The suspension bridge fell heavily with the sound of wind, standing on the moat. Behind the suspension bridge, the city gate was already open.
"Brothers, prepare to fight!" Zhang Tiangang shouted loudly.
In the corner, Zhang Tiangang stood up, inserted his sword into his waist, raised a strong bow, twisted a sharp arrow with two fingers, stringed it, narrowed his eyes, and lined up dozens of feather arrows at his feet.
…
…
Ever since Prime Minister Yuan Taezu defeated and drove away the million-strong Sui army, Gao Jianwu, the leader of Pyongyang, has had mixed feelings these days. He could hardly sleep at night. When he was tossing and turning, he was often worried that Yuan Taezu would carry the power of a great victory.
He sought power and usurped the throne, and he and all the royal family were killed by Yuan Taizuo.
Gao Jianwu stared at the dancing candlelight but could not fall asleep. Therefore, when the alarm bell on the city wall rang and the shouts of death came from the city, he heard it immediately and climbed out of bed.
Then he saw a group of servants running towards him with panic on their faces, "Your Majesty, the enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking!"
For a moment, Gao Jianwu didn't even react. The enemy was attacking. Where was the enemy? But the trembling on the ground immediately made him react. The distant shouts of killing allowed him to clearly distinguish the direction from which the enemy was coming. To the south,
Only Annan County was occupied by Duke An of Qin in the Sui Dynasty.
Suddenly, Gao Jianwu's mind went blank. Four days ago, after repeated hesitation and struggle, he sent 20,000 troops from Kyoto and nearby areas to Annan County for rescue. How come it was only four days later that the enemy appeared in Pyongyang? Li Guangsheng
Has that loser already been defeated?
Moreover, the enemy actually attacked the city at night.
"Send the order, all the troops in the city, as well as all the guarding warriors, go to Nancheng." Gao Jianwu issued the most correct order at the first time, but he didn't know how effective it would be in his haste.
Li Dongmu, the guard of the east city gate who first discovered something was wrong with Nancheng, reacted very quickly. Instead of waiting for Gao Jianwu's order, he directly ordered all the soldiers on his side of the city to march towards Nancheng. He even let go and ran all the way towards Nancheng.
, when he was still seven hundred steps away from the south city gate, he saw a scene that made him terrified. The wide suspension bridge fell heavily and fell on the moat. In the distance, countless torches were converging into a fire dragon.
, quickly ran towards the south gate.
"The South City Gate has fallen into the enemy's hands." Li Dongmu immediately came to the conclusion in his mind, "Attack and take back the South City Gate." Li Dongmu shouted with a sword, and charged towards the South City Gate first.
On the south city gate, Zhang Tiangang drew the bow string steadily, and moved slowly with Li Dongmu's running figure. He let go, and the sharp arrow made a whining sound, and flew towards Li Dongmu like lightning.
Almost subconsciously, Li Dongmu swung his sword up, and in a split second, Zhang Tiangang was bound to be knocked away with an arrow. The sharp arrow flew past his helmet and shot away the red cherry blossoms on the helmet. The hair on Li Dongmu's body stood on end.
, suddenly raised his head to look at the city gate building, the three black lines in front of him were almost connected in a straight line, flying straight towards him, such a fast arrow, this was his last reaction. He let out a sound in his chest and abdomen.
After being hit by three arrows, Li Dongmu fell to the sky, his body hitting the ground heavily and motionless.
"General Li is dead!" Li Dongmu's death caused a panic, and the soldiers slowed down.
"Rush up and take back the South City Gate, or everyone will die!" A lieutenant jumped out, waving his weapon and commanding the soldiers to rush to the South City Gate, but he only ran a few steps before he was shot again by the condescending Zhang Tiangang.
kill.
Zhang Tiangang turned around and ordered loudly: "Brothers, have you seen it? As long as we support one stick of incense, Pyongyang will be ours. After completing this mission, after we return, I will treat you to a drink and a visit to the hotel."
The team members laughed loudly. Although the battle was approaching, they were extremely relaxed. With their previous preparations and skills, it was not difficult for a stick of incense.
"Use the powerful crossbow on the top of the Goguryeo city to shoot at the densest place with the crowd!" Zhang Tiangang said loudly.
