Chapter 37: Swarm into the city

Cheng Yaojin, who was guarding Luokoucang, was awakened by a personal guard. Cheng Yaojinteng stood up straight from the bed and sat straight on the bed board. He shouted: "Why is it so fast today? We don't feel like we've slept for a long time."

Cheng Yaojin would tell his personal soldiers to wake him up before dawn. So he thought it was dawn now. But before the personal soldiers could speak, Cheng Yaojin, who yawned, found something wrong, "Damn, it's not dawn yet, wake me up..." Cheng Yaojin scolded angrily.

The personal soldier interrupted him in a crying voice and said, "General, Sui army, Sui army has entered Luokou..." Before he finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin jumped up from the bed with a carp, grabbed the personal soldier's clothes and shouted, "What did you say?!"

"The Sui army has entered Luokou!"

...

Half an hour ago, the first person to discover the Sui army was the civil servants resting in the camp beside the Luoshui River. These civil servants were all recruited by Li Mi to build Xingluo City. They were both civil servants and acted as auxiliary soldiers for transporting grain and building the camp when necessary.

After many of these civilian soldiers were killed by the Sui army, they did not dare to shout and shout, and raised their hands to beg for surrender. A large number of Sui army then passed through the half-built Xingluo City wall next to the civilian camp and rushed towards Luokoucang. Luokoucang had water gates on both the Luoshui and the Yellow River.

Logically speaking, these Sui army could drive Viking ships directly into Luokou from the Water Gate. However, Cheng Yaojin, who was guarding Luokou, asked the soldiers to close the two gates early on. The Sui army was not convenient to climb the city wall from the water surface, so they landed ashore ten miles away from Luokou.

In Xingluo City, which had not been built, there were many patrol troops of Wagang Army, which were hundreds of people, dozens of people, and some secret whistles of open and hills. Such a large group of Sui army, which was so dark that it was impossible not to be noticed. A quarter of an hour later, the shouts of enemy attacks were heard one after another.

The defenders on the Luokoucang city wall found that there was a commotion outside and looked around. The soldiers who had already been sleeping were shouted by the leaders and picked up their weapons to gather at the top of the city. At this moment, arrows were shot at the top of the city like a sudden rain of locusts. The crossbowmen of the Xiaoguo Imperial Guard under the city had begun to diffuse with crossbows. The Sui army came too fast!

There was no need to aim in the darkness. Relying on the denseness of arrows, the soldiers who looked down were caught in arrows on their faces or heads and died. Then, hundreds of soft ropes with flying claws were shot to the top of the city with several battles by the strong crossbow. The hundreds of the most elite guards of the army were wearing heavy armor and climbed up to the top of the city. The dozen or so guards who came to their senses first swung their swords to cut these soft ropes. After cutting off a few, a few cold lights came beside them. Some gun blades or blades stabbed or slashed into their bodies. More and more Xiaoguo soldiers climbed up to the city wall behind them.

When Cheng Yaojin arrived, hundreds of soldiers from the Xiaoguo Army had gathered on the top of the city. The alarmed soldiers of the Wagang Army were constantly coming from both sides of the city wall. The two sides immediately fought together, and the Sui army struggled to block these Wagang soldiers to prevent them from recapturing the city tower that had been controlled by the Sui army.

More than a dozen Xiaoguo guards in the city tower were turning the winch hard, and the suspension bridge had been put down. What they were doing now was to open the floodgates.

When Cheng Yaojin saw it, he became anxious, roared, waved the axe in his hand and rushed forward, slashing left and right. When the soldiers of the Wagang Army saw that the main general was coming, their morale was greatly boosted, and they followed Cheng Yaojin forward and fought bravely, intending to retake the city gate before the Sui army opened it.

A fierce and powerful soldier cut open the head of a Wagang army without a head. However, he was stabbed into his body by a spear, but the spear was exhausted after just piercing his spear. The spear was about to accumulate strength and launch it again. When the spear penetrated the spear deep into the other party's body, a powerful arrow shot from a continuous crossbow hit his face. The spearman wailed and fell backwards with his back facing the sky.

The fierce and fierce soldier who was slightly injured by the spear blade slashed the blade into the neck of another Wagang army. The Wugang soldier's head was instantly hung on his chest by a layer of skin and threw him to the ground. The fierce and fierce soldier killed several people in a row, and the bloody smell even more stimulated his fighting spirit, but unexpectedly a big axe fell from the sky and smashed his head with an axe.

Cheng Yaojin lifted the blood-stained axe and swung it to another Xiaoguo Army again. Unexpectedly, the soldier actually blocked the axe with a large shield. The big shield cracked, but the soldier threw the shield away and hugged the axe in his arms. Cheng Yaojin dragged the axe back with force, but the axe was held tightly from the body of the Xiaoguo Army soldier, and dragged the soldier's body to Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin was anxious and swung his axe, trying to let the other party let go. At the same time, several spears stabbed in a hurry. Although most of them were stopped by Cheng Yaojin's personal soldiers, he was still shot hard with a sniffle. At this time, Cheng Yaojin was also shocked. He had heard of the cleverness of the Xiaoguo Army, but he didn't expect the young master to be so brave.

Under the city, the gate was slowly opening. The Wagang army who heard the news in the rest of Xingluo City rushed to reinforce one by one. However, they were all defeated by the heavy cavalry of the royal court who served as the guard. When the gate was more than one person high, Lai Hu'er waved his hand from the air and shouted: "Xiaoguo Guard Pioneer, Tianxing Army's Long Spear Battalion entered Luokou Cang. The rest of the people followed me and continued to strangle Wagang thieves outside Luokou Cang!"

After listening to his orders, a large number of soldiers from the Sui army rushed towards Luo like a tide. The spearmen also lined up in several square formations and entered the city gate.

When the Wagang army on the top of the city saw this scene, they retreated into the city one after another. If the Sui army entered the city, they would first seal the corridor leading to the city wall. The Wagang army, who was still slid at the top of the city, would be a turtle in the jar.

Cheng Yaojin, who lost his battle axe, had a red face, pulled out his sword from his waist and intended to fight again. More than a dozen soldiers beside him hurriedly grabbed him tightly and shouted, "General, it's too late to leave if he doesn't leave." After that, he pulled Cheng Yaojin down the city.

There were 30,000 Wagang defenders in Xingluo City, of which 10,000 were stationed in Luokoucang. At this time, a large number of Sui troops had poured into Luokoucang. The mountain spearmen were particularly suitable for this kind of urban terrain with flat terrain and crisscrossing streets. Under the skillful command of the superiors, they divided and merged, changed various formations, cooperated with each other, and repeatedly swept away the remaining enemies on the street. The streets they passed were like they were swept by huge brooms, and they could not see a living Wagang soldier.
