V1.Chapter 282

Tang Yin is the commander in chief. His subordinates need his permission to act. Cheng Jin is at fault for his unfavorable attack and falling into the enemy's ambush, but Tang Yin can't escape his fault. In this regard, Tang Yin is superior, and he will never find an excuse to shirk his responsibility.

After hearing his words, Cheng Jin and the people around him were all moved.

As the commander-in-chief of the three armed services, being able to admit his mistakes in front of his subordinates is not only a matter of courage, but also broad-minded and magnanimous. It's just a pity that Tang Yin has courage, but he is not broad-minded and magnanimous. He just doesn't have the psychology of high and low, and doesn't think how humiliating it is to admit his mistakes. From a perspective, Tang Yin has not set himself in a high position at this time.

When the Ming attack failed and the night attack failed, Tang Yin had no choice but to listen to Qiu Zhen and wait for his logistics to arrive.

The next day, the directly subordinate army did not launch another attack, and the county army waiting for Mao anyao will be reinforced in the future.

Now, Geng Qiang is still in Xibai City, discussing with his advisers and generals whether they should listen to Mao an and attack the Tianyuan army led by Tang Yin. Geng Qiang himself hesitated. The following advisers and generals were also divided into two factions. One advocated going to war and the other advocated sitting on guard. There was no dispute, so they talked about it. Time is being spent in the debate between the two factions.

The next day, Tang Yin tried his surname's feint. Seeing that the resistance of Jicheng was still fierce, he ordered to withdraw the main force and send only a small group of troops to disturb the enemy's garrison.

That night, before the logistics arrived, Zongyuan came back. He stayed in linqiao for two more days to select the county guard and the city master. Now the candidates have been found, so he hurried back. After seeing Tang Yin, he first reported the results of his handling, and then learned about his current war situation.

After listening to the people's story, Zongyuan thought for a moment, smiled and said to Tang Yin, "Sir, it's not difficult to take Jicheng!"

"Oh?" After hearing this, everyone present was stunned, including Tang Yin. Our side has been fighting Jicheng for three days, but we can't attack it for a long time. Zong Yuan said it's not difficult to fight Jicheng as soon as he came. His tone is a little too big. Tang Yin asked with a smile, "Mr. Zongyuan, what's your plan? Tell me!"

"Continue to use the strategy of night attack!" Zongyuan said confidently.

After hearing this, everyone frowned and attacked at night. Isn't that asking for hardship? What about Cheng Jin and the hidden arrow? A group of powerful spiritual practitioners of the dark system didn't get a bargain. Who else will be sent to attack at night this time? Tang Yin shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "Lord Zong, we have failed once. Do you think we can succeed with another night attack?"

Lord Jizong asked, "how many soldiers are there in Jicheng?"

Tang Yin didn't understand the purpose of his question. He frowned and said, "up to 20000 people!"

"Yes! Only 20000 people have fought with our army for three days. Their soldiers must be exhausted. How can they be on high alert all night?" Zong Yuan paused for a moment, looked around at the crowd and said, "we can send people to attack at night, but these people are going to die. The purpose is to dispel the enemy's sense of defense. After defeating our army's night attack, the other party will certainly not think that our army will have a second wave of night attack. When the time comes, this second wave of night attack can surprise the other party!"

When Zongyuan finished, they all bowed their heads, meditated and wondered whether Zongyuan's plan was feasible.

It is really surprising to send two waves of sneak attack personnel, one first and one later. No matter how cunning Mao an is, he will never expect his own hand. However, the soldiers of the first wave of sneak attack will be almost dead. If this plan is implemented, the loss of our own side is not small.

Tang Yin naturally thought of this. He frowned and said, "if you follow Lord Zong's plan, few brothers in the first wave of sneak attack will return to the camp alive."

Zong Yuan arched his hands and said, "it's worth the ultimate victory at a very small price. Even if our army's siege baggage is transported to the city, there will still be casualties when we attack the city on a large scale. What do you say, sir?"

okay! Tang Yin nodded secretly, then looked around at the crowd and said, "what do you mean, ladies and gentlemen?"

Qiu Zhen stood up, arched his hands and said, "Lord Zong has excellent strategy, and his plan is feasible!"

Qiu Zhen also admired Zongyuan's plan. In fact, both he and Zhang Zhe are good at overall strategy, while the tactical strategy during the handover of short soldiers is far inferior to Zongyuan.

Hearing that he thought so, Tang Yin no longer hesitated and said, "OK! Just follow Lord Zong's plan. At midnight tonight, our army will sneak into Jicheng again!"

"Yes!" The people got up one after another and answered in unison.

Tang Yin accepted Zong Yuan's plan and selected 100 dead soldiers from the whole army to serve as the first wave of sneak attack, while the hidden arrows led by Cheng Jin served as the second wave of sneak attack. Different from the last time, Tang Yin also participated in this time in person to show his determination to succeed in the first World War.

In addition, he set the location of the sneak attack in the back city of Jicheng, and ordered the soldiers of the whole army to gather secretly in their own camp outside the back city of Jicheng. As long as they succeed in the front, their own army can rush out of the camp and rush into the city at the first time.

After everything was arranged, Tang Yin found the leader of the 100 dead. This man is a captain, named Jiang Chu. He is not clever, but he is strong, tall and powerful.

Tang Yin looked at him and asked softly, "Jiang Chu, do you know the danger of this sneak attack?"

Jiang Chu arched his hand and said, "Lord Hui, the enemy is outnumbered, and the enemy has long been on guard. This sneak attack, my subordinates have been determined to be benevolent!"

Tang Yin nodded, his eyes darkened and waved to the side. At this time, the bodyguard standing on one side came to Jiang Chu with the tray and handed it to him. Jiang Chu looked up and saw that the tray was filled with yellow gold ingots. Tang Yin said, "take the gold and share it with other brothers!"

Jiang Chu stretched out his hand, but immediately retracted, raised his head, looked directly at Tang Yin, and said, "my subordinates sacrificed their lives for the country, not in return!" After a pause, he said again, "if adults want to reward, send these gold to our home!"

Tang Yin was very moved when he heard the speech. If there were other good strategies, he would never let these respectable and admirable soldiers die. However, in order to break the city as soon as possible and minimize his own losses, he had to make sacrifices. He sighed in his heart and said, "if you die in battle, I will provide for your family and let them have enough food and clothing."

"Thank you, sir! If you say so, I will die without regret!" When Jiang Chu heard the speech, he knelt on one knee and bowed his hands.

Midnight. One hundred dead soldiers directly under Jiang Chu quietly sneaked out of the camp and went straight to the back city of Ji City.

The situation is similar to that encountered by Cheng Jin during the sneak attack. From the outside, the defense of Ji City is very lax. There are no sentries in the tower, and there are no patrolling soldiers on the wall. These dead men, without any obstruction along the way, lurked under the city wall smoothly.

Jiang Chu and others listened quietly for a while and confirmed that there was no movement on the city head. Then they took off the rope they carried with them, threw the iron hook on the city head, grabbed and fished the arrow stack, and hundreds of soldiers climbed up the city head quickly along the rope.

If you look to the left and right on the long wall, let alone the patrolling soldiers, you don't even have bodyguards on guard. Such lax defense doesn't seem to be at the time of war between the two armies.

Jiang Chuxin knew what was going on with his belly. He bit his teeth and crossed his heart. He shook his head to his soldiers and whispered, "go down the wall and open the gate!"

A hundred soldiers directly under the army took back the rope, hung it on the inner side of the city wall, followed the rope, quickly went down the city wall and entered the city.

They stick to the root of the city wall, raise their legs high, drop their feet gently, and slowly sneak towards the city gate.

Surprisingly, they didn't encounter the ambush of Peng Guo all the way. They were not stopped. They really got to the city gate cave smoothly. At this time, Jiang Chu couldn't help wondering. Looking at the city gate near the support, he murmured in his heart, is the enemy really unprepared? Did your sneak attack succeed?

Without time to think about it, he shook his head and motioned to the people around him to quickly move the door latch and let his army into the city. Hundreds of soldiers were about to move the latch according to the meaning of Jiang Chu. At this time, there was a sudden drum outside the city gate cave, and an ambush emerged. They saw countless Peng troops in red armour pouring out from every corner and dark place, with their swords out of the scabbard and arrows on the strings, like a great enemy.

"Ha ha --"

With a burst of laughter, Pengjun taxi came out of a general, He shouted: "my Lord will attack our city again at night even if he arrives at you early! However, you are not as good as one group. It's ridiculous that Tang Yin sent you useless waste to die this time! If you are smart, you should put down your arms and surrender. Otherwise, you will die without a place to bury!"

The Peng general who spoke was Lu Qingfeng, a general under Mao an.

Hearing the words, Jiang Chu and others were shocked by their body shape and secretly shouted bad in their hearts! Jiang Chu shouted, "leave the enemy alone and open the gate!"

"Yes!"

Hearing the order, the soldiers agreed and worked together to remove the latch of the city gate.

The city gate is made of pure copper, and the latch is also made of copper. It is wide, thick and extremely heavy. It can't be said that they can move down. Moreover, Lu Qingfeng can't give them the opportunity to move down the latch.

Seeing that the other party didn't listen to his advice and insisted on going his own way, he sneered, raised his hand and shouted, "shoot an arrow!"

With his words, the Pengjun arrows flew into the city gate.

Pity the more than 100 dead soldiers directly under the army. They have no shield and nowhere to dodge. They are like living targets. They are shot into rows after rows by ruthless arrows.

The screams of people and the sound of arrows breaking through armour and bone were heard all the time. Even Jiang Chu was not spared. There were more than a dozen arrows inserted in his chest, abdomen, thighs and arms. Some even pierced his body, but he didn't fall to the ground. He shouted angrily at Lu Qingfeng: "rebel, you'll end up like Zhong Tian. You'll be crushed to pieces and die without regret!" As he spoke, he struggled to raise his sword and ran to Lu Qingfeng.
