Chapter 1390: Capture the city gate
However, under the command of the general, they had to do this. The consequence of betrayal was death. If they followed, they might survive this war. If Hu Zhao was still alive, perhaps only his order could make many soldiers give up resistance. The attack of the enemy outside the city made the defenders see no great hope. This was also because many soldiers were unmoved in the face of the orders of the deputy general.
At this moment, Wang Yue led his private soldiers to come and frowned when he heard the movement on the city wall. He did not expect that Hu Zhao would inform the deputy general of such an important matter at the last moment. Otherwise, when the private soldiers began to attack the city gate, even if the deputy general did not agree with Hu Zhao's actions, it would be extremely difficult to stop him.
"Incompetent!" Wang Yue said in a slander.
"What should I do?" The heads of the five families looked pale. For this action, they could be said to have fought hard. Not only did they dispatch all the private soldiers in the family, but even the people in the family moved in advance. The consequences after the failure were not what they thought of seeing.
The heads of the Zhang and Li families have even begun to accuse the heads of the Hu family.
Wang Yue snorted coldly: "At the moment, you are still arguing here. Could it be that you really have to wait for the enemy to arrive?"
The heads of the five families hurriedly stopped arguing.
"As long as the plan!" Wang Yue ordered without hesitation.
When the private soldiers of the aristocratic family discovered the soldiers at the city gate, the soldiers on the city wall came towards the city gate. With the faint light of fire, they saw dense men in black appearing at the city gate.
"There is an enemy!" a general shouted, and then led his soldiers to come over at a faster speed. Until this time, many generals in the army believed that Hu Zhao had betrayed Yuan Shao.
With Wang Yue's order, the private soldiers of the aristocratic family launched a fierce attack on the city gate. Even with reminders and certain preparations, when facing the private soldiers of the aristocratic family, the defenders at the city gate could only barely resist the charge of the private soldiers. The crazy private soldiers would suppress the defenders at the city gate tightly, and they could seize the city gate in a maximum of one quarter of an hour.
After the soldiers on the city rushed over, they attacked the private soldiers without any hesitation. Even though the soldiers in the army did not have much confidence in whether they could defend the city, they would have almost instinctive resistance when the enemy raided the city gate. They were soldiers in the city. If the city was lost, they would be prisoners. No one was willing to become prisoners of others, even if the defenders were at a disadvantage in this battle.
The private soldiers of the aristocratic family divided half of their troops to resist the soldiers from the city, while the rest continued to attack the city gate frantically. Perhaps the appearance of their own robes made the soldiers at the city gate burst out with a far exceeding ordinary combat power. Facing the attack of private soldiers, they did not give in at all. In terms of attack, they had no choice but to defend the city gate, but they could barely do it. As long as their soldiers could defeat the private soldiers, they won the battle.
Outside the south gate, Lu Bu led his personal guards and stared at the city gate not far away.
After hearing the news from the scout, Lu Bu frowned slightly. Half an hour had passed since the private soldiers raided the city gate. According to his calculations, the city gate should have been opened. The longer the time delayed, the more unfavorable it would be for his side. There are more than 10,000 defenders in the city, and there is not much difference between the number of soldiers and our side.
"Master, could it be the rebellion of the aristocratic families in the city that Yuan Tan noticed it in advance?" Dian Wei whispered.
Lu Bu said: "This is the best opportunity to seize Linzi. As long as our army can enter the city, the rest will be much simpler." Through the detailed news from the city, Lu Bu concluded that the defenders no longer had much fighting spirit in fighting against their own army. If they were the army of other princes, they would not be much better. They would endure attacks one after another and could not even touch the enemy's clothes. Not only was they aggrieved, but they were deeply afraid.
At the same time, the battle at the city gate had reached a heightened level. The private soldiers were fearless and the defenders did not give in. After seeing this situation, the heads of the five families were very worried. The defenders at the city gate had such a strong combat power, which was completely beyond their expectations. Although there were 200 defenders at the city gate, they dragged the private soldiers' actions tightly.
According to the previous plan, as long as Hu Zhao mobilizes part of the city gate defenders, the speed of seizing the city gate will inevitably be faster.
Wang Yue frowned, shouted angrily, drew his sword and stepped forward.
"Kill!" The long sword in Wang Yue's hand changed one after another in the eyes of the defenders. They could only see the light of swords flashing by, and then they were unaware of the situation. The five soldiers in the front fell to the ground, bringing a considerable impact to the defenders behind. Many soldiers looked at Wang Yue with fear.
When the heads of the five families saw this situation, their expressions showed surprise. They did not expect that Wang Yue was such a master. The appearance of a master played a crucial role in the situation at this time.
But wherever Wang Yue went, there must be a defender who fell down. After only a moment of attack, the defender who died in Wang Yue's hands had reached sixteen. This shock was absolutely fatal to the defender at this time. Many defenders looked at Wang Yue with horror. When they saw Wang Yue coming, their first reaction was not to go forward but to avoid it.
The lieutenant responsible for commanding the battle at the city gate hid among the soldiers. From Wang Yue's move to now, no one in the defenders could hold on for two rounds in his hands. This is absolute strength. The lieutenant is sure that once he shows up, he will definitely be Wang Yue.
Although the defenders had a strong combat power when dealing with private soldiers from the aristocratic families, when facing masters like Wang Yue, they would instinctively choose to avoid them, and no one wanted to die under the enemy's sword like this.
Although the captain hid in time, Wang Yue noticed the existence of the captain before rushing.
"Die!" Time is tight, and Wang Yue's actions are all killer moves.
The Shadow Guard, hiding among the private soldiers, took the opportunity to move closer to Wang Yue. Although there were only more than ten Shadow Guards, they were invincible under the leadership of Wang Yue and directly tore the formation of the defenders in front.
The sword light shook. After seeing Wang Yue, the captain kept ordering the soldiers to come forward, but still failed to stop Wang Yue's unstoppable sword.
The captain's eyes widened and slowly fell down. His expression was full of unwillingness, because when he was dying, he saw that the private soldiers of the aristocratic family had already become dissatisfied under the attack of the defenders on the city.
