Chapter 345: Digging Tunnels

Wei Ru shouted, as if a beast was out of the cage, and the ferocious aura came to her face.

On the majestic city gate tower, the flag of the character "Zhang" is hung high and moves with the wind. A large number of war soldiers stood on the city, either wearing armor or wearing war jackets, with serious expressions.

These Han soldiers have been training for a while and are no longer the new recruits who can be rubbed at will.

Between these warriors, there were many defending weapons, bundles of arrows, piles of stones, etc.

Listening to Wei Ru's shouting, the soldiers all turned their eyes to Zhang Bu who was standing in front of the city gate tower.

Zhang Bu was neatly dressed, standing with a knife, and his body was upright, like a javelin, penetrated straight into the sky. His face was cold, and after hearing Wei Ru's words, his expression did not change at all.

Fighting general?

He had long heard of Wei Ru's reputation.

He wasn't crazy, how could he fight with Wei Ru?

Although the main general would not respond to the battle, it would not happen. However, because Wei Ru was a female general and was called out by the female general, Zhang Bu did not respond to the battle.

The soldiers were indeed very disappointed, and their morale dropped slightly.

Wei Ru was also very disappointed.

"Zhang Bu. I think you might as well change your name to Lu Bu. That may give you courage." Wei Ru mocked him, tightened the reins of the horse, turned his head and returned to the camp.

"Secretary of the Wei Dynasty, don't care. We are not trying to attack this big city in Jiang County, we are just a feint." Long Qi was also wearing neatly, standing under the camp gate with his knife, and looking up to comfort Wei Ru and said.

"Thank you, Captain Long, for your concern, I didn't care." Wei Ru turned over and dismounted, handed the horse spear to the personal soldiers beside him, took off his helmet and hugged it in front of his chest.

"How is the assembly of heavy siege equipment?" Wei Ru looked up and looked at the craftsmen, who were busy and asked.

"It's going well. You should be able to attack the city tomorrow morning."

Long Qi looked back and showed a little smile on his face.

"Yeah." Wei Ru nodded and entered the camp gate with Long Qi. The guards immediately closed the camp gate.

There was nothing to say for a day. Early the next morning, the soldiers of Wu Nian Army began to make rice. After eating and drinking, the soldiers rested for a while, and the heavy siege equipment was assembled.

"Woooooooooooooooooo!!!"

"Dongdongdongdongdong!!!"

With the melodious sound of trumpets and the intense sound of war drums sounded. The Wei Ru, who was responsible for the leader, turned over the horse and rode out of the camp gate with a horse spear in his hand. After the troops were arranged in an orderly manner, she pointed the horse spear at the city wall and shouted: "Capture through this city."

"kill!!!!"

The soldiers did not hesitate at all. They roared and killed amid the drums and horns. They pushed the siege equipment toward the city.

It was still in front of the city gate tower. Zhang Bu pulled out the steel knife from his waist and raised it, shouting: "Defend the city. When General Jin comes back, everyone will be rewarded."

............

The soldiers from Beishan Fort came out to attack Jiang County, which immediately attracted the eyes of all the interested people in Yingqing Prefecture.

No one doubted that this was a feint.

A plan to secretly cross Chen Cang.

Jiang County is a big city that stocks a large amount of food, grass and supplies. If the Wu Nian army can capture Jiang County, it will be able to obtain a large amount of supplies and will be at its peak in its momentum.

Cracking this city is of great significance.

In fact, Wu Nian and others' plan was actually Dingxian.

This county is neither economically prosperous nor strategically important, but an ordinary small town.

But it is not easy to break through this city head-on.

morning.

The gates of Ding County are open, and people come in and out of the city from time to time.

Near the center of the city, there is a [Zhou Mansion]. It is the mansion of the Qianfu of Zhou Dingyuan who is guarding here.

Zhou Dingyuan was originally a fugitive military householder and had not enjoyed a few days of blessing. He was suddenly recruited as a commander of thousands of men by the Mongols and a little bit arrogant.

I bought this mansion that is considered to be the top in Ding County and took five concubines in a row, so I lived so comfortable.

However, he did not slacken. He led troops and practiced martial arts every day, which was just the norm.

In the pavilion, Zhou Dingyuan sat on a stone stool with his shirtless upper body, and his newly-accepted concubine Liu sat in his arms.

A strong man kneeled in front of him.

Zhou Dingyuan showed a playful look on his face, and he waved his hand to let the strong man who reported the news leave.

"It's worthy of being Wu Nian from Beishan Fort. He actually chose to attack Jiang County and was determined." Zhou Dingyuan pinched the wine glass on the stone table and drank it clean with pleasure.

"It's just right. Let Zhang Bu worry. I'm safe here." Zhou Dingyuan laughed loudly, stretched out his hand and wandered like a snake in his arms, which made Liu laugh.

.........

At night, it's late at night.

Tie Niu, Zhang Jin led five elite soldiers from hundreds of households to the northeast corner of the city with excavation tools.

They stopped about two hundred meters away from the city.

Torch lights up on the city wall, and you can clearly see someone patrolling, standing guard, and getting closer, there will be a danger of being discovered.

"A distance of 200 meters. We have about three hours to dig the tunnel. Time is relatively tight."

"If found, we won't have a second chance."

Zhang Jin's face was a little solemn.

Their location is relatively remote. When it is late at night, no one will notice them. But it will be different during the day.

There was such a big pit on the ground, plus the accumulated soil, everyone knew that they were digging tunnels.

"Do it now." Tie Niu was a little bit more straightforward and greeted the soldier.

Holding a big shovel, the bare-bodied soldier immediately began to dig. The soil here in Ding County is very loose and the excavation progress is very fast.

Every time the soldiers advance for a distance, they will fix them with wooden boards and pillars that have been prepared long ago to prevent landslides.

After the soldiers digging without stopping for a second, they finally dug more than 200 meters in two and a half hours.

It's only half an hour before dawn.

"A quarter of an hour of rest." Zhang Jin looked at the sky, then looked at the soldier who was sweating and panting because of digging the tunnel, and decided to take a break.

A quarter of an hour passed quickly. A team of soldiers holding a big shovel got off the tunnel first and opened the way forward. Then Zhang Jin, Tie Niu led all his troops into the tunnel.

This battle is very dangerous. If their authentic operations are discovered, the city is prepared and the ambush is blocked near the exit.

They would not say that the entire army would be wiped out, at least they would pay a considerable price.

Soon, the soldiers in front reached the end of the tunnel. They took shovels and began to dig upwards diagonally.

There was a "boom".

As the soil fell, the tunnel was dug through. Zhang Jin, Tie Niu immediately pulled out the steel knife at his waist and rushed out first.

"ah!!!"

The woman's scream rang out.
Chapter completed!
