Chapter 674
The two days passed quickly. At midnight on the third day, Xu Huang asked Gao Lan to lead the Feixiong Iron Cavalry to the Sancheng every half hour to harass him. Each time he sent 1,000 Iron Cavalry, the movement was very loud, and the gongs and drums were resounding throughout the sky. Every time the Iron Cavalry arrived at the city of Sanguan, there were rockets. When the troops and horses on Sanguan all came to the city wall, Gao Lan's Feixiong Iron Cavalry turned his horse's head and flashed quickly.
The guard at Sanguan was Yang Ang, who was relatively capable general under Zhang Lu and was also very responsible. When Gao Lan's Feixiong Iron Cavalry rushed to the city, Yang Ang would lead his troops to the city wall to observe in the shortest time.
But Gao Lan's iron cavalry would flash every time when the gongs and drums were gongs and drums were making a fuss, which made the soldiers who guarded him and heard the troops coming when they got up. When they ran up the city wall after they got up, the enemy disappeared again, which made the soldiers guarding the city at Sanguan exhausted.
Yang Ang knew in his heart that this was Xu Huang's plan to get tired soldiers, but there was no better way. If he didn't get up and led the soldiers to the city wall, if it was really an attack, then Sanguan would be out of protection. So even though he knew it was a plan to get tired soldiers, Yang Ang would lead his troops to the city wall every time.
Gao Lan led the Feixiong Iron Cavalry to flew all night. After dawn, Xu Huang led the soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army to line up under the city wall and commanded dozens of catapult cars to bombard the city wall. The catapult cart was extremely powerful and scary, especially it was very effective in psychological attacks on the defensive soldiers and could achieve a deterrent effect.
After the catapult cart was hit for a while, Xu Huang asked 2,000 soldiers from the Rising Bear Army to carry crossbows in batches to shoot indiscriminately at the defensive soldiers on the city wall. Every time the Sanguan city wall was faced with raindrops, which was extremely lethal. Yang Ang's defensive soldiers would die if they were not careful.
Xu Huang bombed the Sanguan city wall like this all day, shooting with a burst of crossbows, which made the movement very big, but the actual effect was not much. However, at the beginning, the soldiers in the city were not prepared to be shot and killed, and later the soldiers guarding the city knew how to dodge.
Of course, Xu Huang's purpose was not to really attack the city, but to continue the tired soldiers last night's plan, hoping that Yang Ang and his subordinates could not rest and completely destroy the morale of the soldiers guarding the city.
Although Yang Ang knew that Xu Huang would not attack lightly, he did not dare to take it lightly every time, for fear that if Xu Huang suddenly came to attack, the Sanguan City would be at risk of being broken at any time.
After dinner, Gao Lan's North Flying Bear Iron Cavalry continued to harass Sanguan every half hour, making the city guard soldiers at Sanguan exhausted. They didn't close their eyes a day or two nights. Needless to mention the soldiers, even Yang Ang, the city guard, could no longer hold on, and felt listless.
At the fifth day of the day, the entire Sanguan city was silent, and the barracks were snoring like thunder, and even the soldiers on the city wall were leaning against the city wall and sleeping soundly.
Xu Huang led the army to hide quietly 1,000 meters from the gate of Yongsanguan. He sent reconnaissance soldiers to conduct a reconnaissance and returned: "General, if you climb the city wall quietly, you will not wake up the soldiers guarding the city. The soldiers guarding the city sleep like dead pigs."
Xu Huang smiled, but he still didn't dare to take the risk and continued to implement the original plan. He asked more than a dozen engineers to sneak quietly under the gate of Sanguan City with explosive bags, piled up the explosives, and carefully sorted out the fuse. When they reached a distance of about 500 meters, the engineers lit the fuse.
After the fuses of several explosive packs were lit, the fuses emitted sparks, making a whirring sound and quickly burned; in the dark night, it looked very beautiful, and even the soldiers under Xu Huang opened their mouths when they saw them.
The soldiers muttered on the ice: "What is this? Why is it like a ghost fire?"
A small school laughed and scolded: "Nonsense, what kind of ghost fire, this is our secret weapon."
After the fuse burned under the wall of Sanguan, it made a slight sound that still woke up a few soldiers guarding the city. The soldiers guarding the city stood up and looked down at the wall. Seeing such a strange scene, they immediately shouted: "Ghost Fire!"
After the soldiers guarding the city were woken up in shock, they all looked down under the city wall. A veteran said, "This is not like a ghost fire!"
Another soldier said, "No, why is there a stinking smell in the air? The stinky smell from the ghost fire."
Of course, the soldiers guarding the city didn't know that this was explosives. The smell was actually the smell of gunpowder emitted by the fuse burning.
The soldiers guarding the city on the Sanguan city wall were talking loudly, and suddenly several deafening explosions resounded through the sky; the city gate of the Sanguan city collapsed and was completely destroyed; the soldiers guarding the city wall were frightened and stood foolishly on the city wall; the soldiers guarding the city near the city gate were blown to pieces on the spot, and some of them had no complete corpses, let alone how they died. I guess they could only be called a fool when they arrived at the King of Hell.
Not only were the soldiers guarding the city on the Sanguan city wall stunned, but even the soldiers under Xu Huang were so scared that they were speechless and did not react for a long time. Fortunately, the engineers had experienced many times during the experiment. Seeing Xu Huang and the officers and soldiers stunned, they immediately said: "General, it's time to attack the city!"
After hearing this, Xu Huang came to his senses and immediately shouted: "Roll!Roll!"
Xu Huang patted the war horses lightly, and when the first one killed the Sanguan city gate, his officers and soldiers were awakened loudly by Xu Huang, they also slapped the horses and rushed towards the city gate; and the soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army were not behind and led the team to run quickly towards the city gate.
On the walls of Sanguan, the soldiers guarding the city under Yang Ang were frightened by the loud explosion. Even the soldiers who were not killed were frightened to death. When Xu Huang led his troops into the city, he had not yet come back to his senses. Many soldiers guarding the city were killed without any preparation.
After seeing Xu Huang's army entering the city, the slightly smarter city guards immediately flashed the people, which was a magic weapon to save their lives. Once the city was broken, if it did not flash, it would be a dead end.
The entire Sanguan City was awakened by the huge explosion. Before I could figure out what was going on, I heard the sound of countless soldiers and horses rushing into the city.
Yang Ang, the lord of the city guard in Sanguan, reacted the fastest. After being frightened by the deafening explosion, he immediately stood up. As soon as he left the tent, he heard the enemy attacking the city. Yang Ang immediately jumped onto the war horse and rushed to the barracks, but the entire barracks were in chaos, and many soldiers had not even put on their clothes, and they didn't know what was going on. Some soldiers were still asking; of course, some soldiers knew that Xu Huang's army was coming into the city.
When Yang Ang saw this situation, he knew that it was impossible to organize a counterattack. The best result was to take as many soldiers as possible to evacuate the scattered gates; if he resisted again, all the soldiers would be wiped out or even died.
Yang Ang immediately shouted loudly and asked the soldiers to retreat quickly. Amid the shouts of generals at all levels, Yang Ang led the army to quickly withdraw from the city of Sanguan; but Xu Huang's Feixiong Iron Cavalry followed him and chased him. How could this extremely chaotic army resist? Yang Ang was so angry that he even wanted to commit suicide, and he lost Sanguan for no reason.
