    The horse galloped dangerously across the trench, and people jumped down from it.

    Zhou Xian saw the Chu-character flag carried by the visitor, stood up and said, "What are your orders, madam? Are you going to attack the city with all your troops?"

    Yangzhou City has been surrounded for these days, and the battle has been on the side of Mrs. Chu. There has never been an order to attack the city as a whole. With so many soldiers and horses, he can only stand around.

    "My lady's side is about to attack the city," the ordering soldier said.

    Zhou Xian was overjoyed: "I will definitely win the southeast direction."

    The soldier shook his head: "Instead of asking the generals to coordinate the attack on the city, we are taking the opportunity to send a few people to sneak into Yangzhou City."

    Infiltrate?  Zhou Xian looked at the city in front of him: "How many people are there? What can they do if they go in? Open the city gate?"

    "Assassinating the general, opening the city gate and then conquering the city is something that can only be said by storytellers in theaters, restaurants and tea shops.

    Ling Bing said: "There are some problems in the city. Madam wants you to go in and take a look."

    "What's the problem?" Zhou Xian continued to ask.

    If he knew something was wrong, why would he go in to see something? Ling Bing was a little angry. Zhou Xian was a stranger to him, and they all called him Zhenwu Jun, but this was his father's son, and he was far away in Yizhou.  Coming and going.

    Although I came here as ordered, it doesn¡¯t seem like I must obey orders.

    When the atmosphere of the stalemate between the two parties was a bit stagnant, someone floated over gently, leaning forward as if out of curiosity and saying: "General, Yangzhou City has been surrounded for so long, it would be a good idea to go in and take a look, to know yourself and the enemy." He said and laughed, "If you can see  Their baggage was scrawled in the storehouse, and they lit a fire and burned it.¡±

    Zhou Xiandao: "The city's baggage and food are different from those of the march outside. It is not easy to burn, and it will not be of much use if it is burned."

    The man responded: "I don't understand this."

    This interruption made the stagnant atmosphere dissipate. The soldier looked at this man. He was wearing a military robe. He was very thin and not too young. His face was white and beardless. He had long eyebrows and long eyes, and his face always seemed to have a smile.

    He is neither a deputy general nor a soldier. He does not look like a soldier at all.

    "I am a junior official under Mr. Wei, and I am responsible for transporting grain and grass this time." The man took the initiative to introduce himself, and smiled again, "I can't say enough about my profession."

    The ordering soldier nodded to him without saying a word.

    Zhou Xian then turned to look at the lieutenant: "The ladder frame enters the city."

    The deputy general responded, and the soldiers naturally stopped talking, and the grain officer also quietly retreated.

    It¡¯s not that Zhou Xian doesn¡¯t obey orders, it¡¯s just that he¡¯s worried, can this woman fight?  Looks like he's here to cause trouble.

    Originally, everyone was so invincible that they could tear down the Yangzhou City wall even after ten days and a half of demolition work. However, she never ordered the siege.

    Just because you see people being used as human shields, you can¡¯t bear it?  The mercy of gods cannot be used in war, otherwise why would there be no gods and Buddhas in troubled times?

    The ground shook, and immediately there was the sound of fighting like thunder, mixed with crying.

    Zhou Xian looked at the sky in the distance. He could imagine that the scene there was no different from before. Why was there a problem in the city?

    Since it is not an attack on the city, it is just for sneaking in, so there cannot be a large-scale battle, and the number of people cannot be too large. Through the fighting there, three of Zhou Xian's troops successfully broke into the city after paying the price of ten people.  Inside.

    The scene in the city shocked the three of them.

    The streets were full of people. People who had been driven away were running, shouting and crying. Some rushed to their homes and closed their doors, and some died on the spot after hitting soldiers and horses with swords and guns.

    The generals are killing people.

    It is not surprising that the rebels in the city would kill people, but they would not massacre like this.

    The hundreds of thousands of people in the city cannot be killed if they want to be killed, so they must be divided into batches like pigs and sheep, which saves effort and can intimidate them.

    A group of people are pulled out, and the remaining people will be happy because it is someone else who died. Fortunately, they have extravagant hopes, and extravagant hopes and fear prevent them from resisting.

    If the rebels kill indiscriminately, with only fear and no extravagant hope, the crowd will collapse. If hundreds of thousands of people collapse, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will be difficult to control.

    The rebels naturally knew this, so even though they were almost desperate after being besieged, they did not go crazy and kill people indiscriminately, just because there was still a glimmer of hope. If there was hope, they did not want the city to collapse.

    ?Then why now?  The battle outside the city is obviously still going on, and they still have the advantage.

    "The Huainan Army is attacking the city!"

    "Hurry up and bring the human shields up!"

    "How much do you want?"

    "What should I do? Where are the people?"

    Generals on the city wallThey were also in chaos, watching the fighting in the distance as more and more people fell, and the military formation moved towards the city.

    There were still many people who were tied up and driven away under the city wall. They had already planned what to do next, but they were in a panic and no one gave orders.

    "Master Ma ran away?"

    "Master Ma ran away!"

    "How could Master Ma leave us behind!"

    Of course, there were generals who continued to wave their hands to fight, kill, and drive away the civilian soldiers, but they could not stop the spread of chaos.

    Standing on the high city wall, you can see people everywhere in the city.

    "The people who had locked their doors and hid at home and thought they were safe were all killed by Ma Jiang. The rebels are going to be defeated. Run for your life. Such shouts will come out."

    The running crowd was stopped by the rebels, but they did not squat down like before. Some screamed and wanted to rush over, and some simply wanted to seize the rebels' swords and guns. Most of them died under the swords and guns, but there were also some who relied on them.  There were those who killed the rebels due to the large number of people, and there were those who rushed to catch the rebels and cried

    "You are from Qili Township! I recognize your accent! Brother, I am also from Qili Township! We are fellow villagers!"

    Most of Ma Jiang¡¯s rebels are Huainan Dao Guards, and most of them are Huainan Dao locals.

    At this time, the soldier was hugged by the man in front of him. He was crying in the local dialect, and the hand holding the knife suddenly couldn't cut it.

    "Mrs. Chu said that as long as he can fight for her, he will be her soldier!"

    "Mrs. Chu has recaptured Yangzhou City, surrendered her gun and won't kill her!"

    There were shouts on the street, and men in military uniforms could be vaguely seen shouting.

    Have the rebels themselves rebelled?

    The man swept away the rebels around him and rushed forward like a tiger, raising his arms and shouting.

    "Everyone, go open the city gate!"

    ?¡­

    ?¡­

    The crowd surged towards the city gate like a tide.

    The noise in the city also spread to the city wall. Is Ma Jiang dead?  Ma Jiang is dead!  Open the city gate for Mrs. Chu?

    The people on the city wall who were being driven away as human shields also immediately started shouting.

    "Mrs. Chu said that those who fight for her are all heroes of Huainan Road!"

    "I saw it! Mrs. Chu's troops even collected the corpses for them!"

    "Fight for Mrs. Chu! Everyone, open the city gates!"

    The people who were about to be pushed off the city wall rushed to the rebels here first, fighting for their swords and guns, or simply jumped off the city wall with the rebels in their arms.

    They cried out to the outside of the city, just like they were being beaten and forced to cry out for help again at night. This time the cry was louder and more powerful, and there was implicit joy in the cry.

    "Help! Madam Chu, please help! Ma Jiang is dead! Ma Jiang is dead!"

    The soldiers and horses of Huainan Road stepped on the ditch filled with rebel corpses, getting closer and closer to the city.

    On the city wall, you can see the people being pushed as before, and there are also bows and arrows being fired at them, but unlike before, this time the war drums behind them have not stopped yet.

    Is this going to attack the city?  Are you going to try a siege?

    Their pace couldn¡¯t help but speed up. Although the high-car ladder frame was far from catching up, they were finally able to fight back with momentum.

    People fell off the city wall, screaming and crying.

    The drumming behind me seems to have slowed down, but it still hasn¡¯t stopped

    The speed of the soldiers and horses became faster and faster. They held their crossbows and aimed them at the high city wall

    "Ma Jiang is dead! Ma Jiang is dead!"

    The shouts poured out from the city walls, and the horses in front of them neighed and raised their hooves

    The shouts were like waves, just like the previous shouts to Mrs. Chu, but this time they came from the front.

    Ma Jiang is dead, Ma Jiang is dead.

    ??Zhongwu looks shocked, is it true?

    "The people on the city wall are fighting with the rebels! There is also a huge noise in the city." Xin Bing reported urgently.

    Zhongwu said: "Is there a scam?"

    Before Xinbing could answer, Li Minglou called Bao Bao: "Beat the drums and attack the city."

    Baobao put down the black umbrella, took the drumstick from Li Minglou¡¯s hand, and waved it vigorously.

    War drums, flags waving, horns blowing, the static soldiers and horses between heaven and earth suddenly come alive.

    The frame of the carriage is sparkling, the horses' hooves are rolling, and the footsteps are treading, forming squares and circles.

    Li Minglou stood on the high car with his white gauze fluttering and watched the military formation rush towards Yangzhou City.

    ?¡­

    ?¡­

    Zhou Xian jumped up and finally waited for the order to attack the city.

    "Let them know how powerful we are." He shouted, "Attack"

    Before the word "city" was shouted out, the horn in the distance changed. Zhou Xian held up his sword in disbelief.

    "Did you blow it wrong?" He asked, "Why did you blow it that the city was destroyed?"

    The order soldier looked at the order flag in the distance: "That's right, the city gate was opened from the inside."

    Zhou Xian looked at the soldiers with a strange expression: "Did you send someone to sneak in and really open the city gate?"

    If he had known it was so easy, he would have sent people to sneak in earlier!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Yu waited for the order to attack the city.
