Chapter 157 Fighting against Wang Jingchong (4)
The city gate slowly opened, and Ma Dehai rushed in with his troops, but a man popped out from inside, standing at the door with his hand pressed on the hilt of the knife. He heard him shouting loudly: "Come one by one, raise your hands and throw down your weapons!"
Ma Dehai shouted: "What nonsense do you mean, come one by one? Do you want my brothers to be killed by a sabre?!"[]
The man was contradicted and felt that his thoughts were a bit taken for granted. He saw that there were not many soldiers under the city, but there were more than a hundred people walking in front of him. The cavalry in the distance was accelerating. If the time was really delayed for the cavalry to capture the city, he would be able to avenge his crimes! As for how many enemy spies could be able to sneak into the city after opening the city gate? Even if these 100 people were all pretending to be the enemy, there were more than a thousand people on our city wall, which was enough to deal with it!
Thinking of this, the man loudly ordered: "Open the city gate and let the soldiers enter the city quickly! Close the door immediately after entering the city, so as not to be captured by the cavalry!"
Hearing his order, the two city gates were quickly pulled inside by the soldiers inside. Ma Dehai's troops rushed into the city immediately, and Ma Dehai was also among them. When he ran into the city gate hole, he took a look at the top of his head. Seeing that there were no traces of grooves on the ceiling of the city gate hole, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that there would be an iron gate on the city gate hole. In that case, even if the city gate hole was captured, the defenders on the city could calmly put down the iron gate and block internal and external traffic.
After most of Ma Dehai's troops entered the city, the man who had just called out asked loudly: "I am Du Ziteng, the commander of the Ximen Guard Military Camp, where is the bastard you just talked to? Come out and let me see! Do you dare to scold me, you're not going to die?! By the way, where is Mr. Zhang Silian?"
Ma Dehai quickly smiled and said, "Sir, the young man is here. Our Lord Zhang is now leading the large army to fight with the cavalry and break through to the south gate!"
"So that's it! You cowards!" Du Ziteng said sternly: "The Lord is still fighting desperately, but you actually fled back to the city! Are you still smiling? A group of cowards! Why do we have you, a group of shameful people in the West City?! Those people behind, come into the city quickly!"
Ma Dehai has now squeezed to Du Ziteng's side. He lowered his head apologetically, shook the spear in his hand suddenly, and suddenly stabbed forward and pierced into Du Ziteng's throat! He stabbed Du Ziteng aside. The spear swept with the momentum and swept the two dumbfounded personal soldiers behind Du Ziteng to the ground. Before the two personal soldiers could shout, they were stabbed to death by Ma Dehai's subordinates!
Du Ziteng widened his eyes and subconsciously pressed his hands on his bleeding throat. His lungs were like bellows, and his throat was roaring, but he couldn't breathe air at all. He fell into a pool of blood and his legs twitched violently, and he died of anger!
As soon as Ma Dehai started, his soldiers also started construction. They had already come to the city guarding soldiers to cover each other's throat with one hand, and held a dagger in the other hand and slashed the other's neck with a sudden stroke, blood flowing! The twenty city guarding soldiers nestled in the city gate, were killed by Ma Dehai's troops without making a shout!
Someone in the city heard the sound of a corpse falling to the ground, and thought someone accidentally fell in the city gate, so he asked diligently: "Mr. Du, are you okay?"
Ma Dehai lowered his voice and pretended to be Du Ziteng's voice: "It's okay, I'm teaching these brainless idiots a lesson!" While saying, he quietly pointed at his left and right.
The soldiers quickly opened the city gate, waved the torches and drew three circles! Then they divided it into two groups, and rushed up the city quietly.
Dong Zunhui's troops were slowly approaching. Seeing the three circles drawn by someone in the city gate with a torch, Dong Zunhui immediately led the cavalry to rush into the city. While running, he kicked the war horse with his heels. The war horse was in pain, running faster and faster, and his hooves were sounding like thunder!
The defenders on the city were shocked when they heard the movement, but looking at the cavalry, they were two miles away from the city, probably not them! But where was the movement coming from?
An elf guy threw down the torch, but there was no abnormal movement under the city. He saw the open space outside the city shaking faintly. Someone hurriedly took the rocket, lit it on the torch, and shot it hard to get it into the distance. Before he could observe the situation in the distance, Ma Dehai's neck was wiped!
The city was in chaos, and the archers did not care about attacking the cavalry that was looming in the distance, but quickly pulled out their waists and retreated to the side. However, tonight, the main force in the city raided, and the elite troops on the city wall were all drawn. Regardless of whether they were handsome or crooked, the remaining soldiers all had one characteristic, that is, their combat effectiveness was weak and their fighting will. Moreover, the main general Du Ziteng was stabbed to death by Ma Dehai, and the defenders on the city lost their command, and they were even more in chaos!
Hearing the sound of horse hooves under the city, watching the cavalry transporting troops from the city, many defenders lost the courage to resist. They threw down their weapons in a daze, shouting loudly in the duck voice: "The city is broken! The city is broken!"
The result of their shouting was that they successfully dismantled the fighting spirit of their accomplices. The soldiers threw down their weapons, hugged their heads in their hands, and squatted in the corner of the wall with trembling. Before Dong Zunhui's sword could be stained with blood, the city tower was captured!
Dong Zunhui stood on the city tower and looked into the city. He saw a dark area, mostly houses without lights. There were many torches inserted in the streets, and the torches were everywhere. It was vaguely seen that many soldiers were being mobilized urgently. In the distance, there was an inner city with bright lights on the inner city. The soldiers seemed to have heard the movement and were being wary.
Dong Zunhui's troops had only 400 people. He had already made great contributions to the city gate by chance. If he was not greedy and continued to move forward, he would probably lose his life in the barricades in the city, and he would lose the city gate that had just succeeded!
When Dong Zunhui thought of this, he didn't have time to be excited, he immediately ordered: "Burn the city gate, send people back to the camp to report the news, and order Zhang Yi to come immediately to help the war. At the same time, collect materials to guard the city and guard against the enemy's counterattack!"
Dong Zunhui was in the middle of the city commanding, while Ma Dehai took the order to go down into the city gate. Seeing that there was still tung oil smeared with the door bolts in the city gate, he ordered people to pour them on the large open city gate and throw two torches on it. The two door panels quickly began to burn and became the most conspicuous torch. The temperature was so high that Zhang Yi and his mounts who had just arrived at the city were unbearable. They rushed into the city until the fire was relieved.
In the distance, Wang Jingchong and Zhou Can had just rushed back from the Nancheng Tower. The two of them looked at the lost Xicheng foolishly, with irresistible shock in their eyes! How many troops did the other party have? How could they send troops to seize the city gate while responding to the night attack? What's more, cavalrymen just entered the city, and the other party seemed to have been supplemented, and rashly sending troops would only lead to failure!
