Four hundred and seventieth chapters capture the city
The wind blows overseas in Wendeng, and the stars are everywhere in the night sky.
Thirty warships lived in a shallow near Wendeng for midnight, and landed at the same time when the tide was approaching.
The Zhao army's twenty sand boats were disembarked directly on the shallows, while the Silla Navy lowered the small sampan. In addition to the three hundred people left to see the ship, the two armies had 2,500 sailors and soldiers landed on the shore together.
On the sea in the east, a rising sun had not yet jumped out of the sea, and there was a circle of redness in the sky.
Jin Chunqiu had a warrior scarf on his head and a scimitar in his hand. His wide robe was blown high by the sea breeze. The Silla soldiers beside him were also wearing white robes, and their trousers were tightly tied.
All the soldiers surrounded Jin Chunqiu. After hearing his instructions, Jin Chunqiu raised his sword and said, "Search nearby. If you find a nearby village, immediately capture the supplies and raid the Wendeng County."
At this time, Zhou Zhou walked up and Jin Chunqiu looked at Zhou Zhou, smiled and said, "Your subordinates are seasick again. It's okay, let our army fight the first formation."
Zhou Zhou cheered up and said, "I would like to follow General Jin."
"Okay," Jin Chunqiu nodded and smiled, "Mr. Zhou can be both literary and martial, but I underestimate you."
Now take the lead, ignoring Zhou Zhou.
Jin Chunqiu was a little neglected to Zhou Zhou. He was the Silla prince, and Zhou Zhou was engaged in the ninth rank county. Li Chongjiu sent him as an envoy, which inevitably made Jin Chunqiu feel that Li Chongjiu had underestimated him. He crossed the sea to fight, but he did not send officials with higher positions to come.
Jin Chunqiu ordered his three hundred Hualang warriors to scatter around to search for the news, and soon someone would return it. He found a village half a mile away.
The three hundred Hualang warriors were scattered on all sides and touched them into the village. Zhou Zhou saw Jin Chunqiu's Silla people and was well-trained. He couldn't help but nod.
At dawn, this small countryside is still peaceful.
When the Goguryeo soldiers approached, they alarmed the dogs in the village.
There were a series of barking in the village one after another, and several fighting dogs rushed out of the village and barked wildly.
But the approaching Silla warrior raised his bow and killed the fighting dog in the street.
The villagers reacted a little slower. They seemed to think that the bandits were coming, and gongs rang out in the village.
But the Hualang warrior was very quick and rushed in from all directions. The rebellious villagers were immediately killed.
After controlling the center of the village, the Hualang warrior knocked on the door from house to house, gathered the villagers together, and gathered them together. In just one meal, Jin Chunqiu's men had already captured the village, and no Hualang warrior was injured or killed.
The village is full of people. Now the Hualang warrior is surrounded by three or four hundred villagers in the core with swords and guns.
Among the villagers were women and children holding babies, as well as old men with gray hair. As for a few men, they were injured, but when they saw the other person's face, they were obviously not Han people, they were secretly shocked.
These people looked bad and surrounded them in the center, with fear on their faces.
"Dear heroes, we are in remote areas and have nothing to be filial to. We want to take everything. I just want you not to harm our lives." The people in the village shouted, not knowing whether it was useful or not.
Seeing this, Jin Chunqiu sneered. He winked at the generals on the side, and the Silla warriors on the side drew their swords one after another.
"No." At this time, Zhou Zhou arrived, shouted loudly, and said, "No, this is the people of our Han people, and we must not kill them for no reason."
When Jin Chunqiu heard Zhou Zhou's speech, he raised his eyebrows and said, "This is my man, I have the right to order how to do it."
Zhou Zhou said, "I am under the order of King Zhao to control the entire army, and the Rusila people and horses are also under my jurisdiction."
After saying that, Zhou Zhou took out a document and presented it directly to Jin Chunqiu. Jin Chunqiu glanced at Zhou Zhou and sneered and said, "I hate others to order me the most in my life. If you talk to me with a angrily voice, maybe I will let this person go, but now... Humph."
Zhou Zhou did not hesitate and drew his sword. More than a dozen servants beside him also drew their swords. Zhou Zhou said, "Either this matter is revealed or you will be killed. If the king had known that you Silla had turned against you, you would have no faith. If you killed me, the deputy governor of the navy behind you will report this matter to the king. Then Silla will not be able to help you kill the country by Goguryeo!"
Jin Chunqiu glanced at Zhou Zhou, then suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "For this small matter, it will not affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries, right? Forget it and take them down."
Zhou Zhou was surprised to see the other party's face change quickly and thought to himself that this person was indeed a character. Zhou Zhou said, "I dare not, "My people are under the supervision of the villagers."
Jin Chunqiu's eyes flashed with cold light, and Zhou Zhou looked at him without any timidity. Jin Chunqiu smiled coldly and said, "Okay, okay, it's better for you to do it for you, but we need to ask them how many people are in Wendeng City?"
After saying that, Jin Chunqiu strides away, and the Silla warriors under his command also left.
Zhou Zhou said, "Now we are in the same boat with the Silla people. It may be bad for the Silla people to be bothered by this small matter."
Zhou Zhou reprimanded: "How could hundreds of lives be trivial? Where did your conscience go? Get off me."
The guard was harshly reprimanded by Zhou Zhou Yizheng and Hong retreated from the bottom.
"Thank you for saving your life!"
The people in the village knew that it was this person who saved the whole village, and they were grateful to Zhou Zhou at the moment.
Zhou Zhouyan said: "I am the king's army of Da Zhao, not the troops of Silla, Goryeo. Now I want to attack Wendeng. I wonder which elder knows about Wendeng County?"
The people looked at each other. When Zhou Zhou saw that no one was talking, he asked, "Why don't you talk?"
An elderly citizen said, "We are all rural residents and have never left the village several times in our lives. Even the officials in Wendeng County cannot meet each other a year except when paying taxes. As for how many people there are in Wendeng County, we don't know."
Zhou Zhou nodded, thinking that what they said made sense, and asked immediately: "Are you a party leader? a neighbor? or a village chief?"
The talking people respectfully said: "The little people are the leader of the party."
Zhou Zhou asked: "How much tax does your village have to pay to Wendeng in a year?"
Party Chief Nianxu said: "Since General Chunyu occupied Wendeng, the amount of taxes in Wendeng County has always been the Chunyu family. The taxes in Chen Village this year are 30% higher than before. We have to pay 200 stones of grain and grass, and 100 kilograms of hay."
Zhou Zhou asked in a brow, "So have the food and grass been paid this year?"
The Party Chief said: "It will take another month before the autumn grain will start."
Zhou Zhou frowned when he heard this. He wanted to use the method of transporting grain into the city to send soldiers to open the city gate, but now it is impossible to wait until a month later.
A villager on the side said, "It's not that trouble if you want to enter the city. I have a brother who sells private salt at sea. As long as the soldiers in the city give benefits, they usually turn a blind eye."
"Oh, the garrison is so loose?"
The president said, "Yes, we are surrounded by the sea on three sides. There are only Erlong Mountain nearby. There are a group of bandits with hundreds of people. However, the bandits would not be so bold and would have the idea of fighting the county town, so the county town is lax on weekdays."
Zhou Zhou laughed and thought to himself that it would be fine.
The soldiers of Zhao State in Silla were resting in the village for a day and a night, and the soldiers were all energetic. This village is a remote place, so you don’t have to worry even if you capture it for a while. It is known to the county town, so you can rest with confidence.
The next day was still the third update. Zhou Zhou ordered troops in the village and ordered 300 people to guard Chen Village. He and Jin Chunqiu led their troops to Wendeng County.
The people kept walking for dawn the next day, and everyone could see the city walls of the county town.
Wendeng City is not a strong city, but for the "Navigation Marines" composed of the main sailors, they have no experience in siege, and they have no powerful weapons.
Zhou Zhou still made up his plan to trick the city gate. He immediately ordered two thousand soldiers to ambush outside the city. At that time, he led two hundred people and dozens of Zhao Village villagers to disguise themselves as salt merchants and headed to the city gate.
Outside Wendeng County.
Jin Chunqiu looked at Zhou Zhou's disguised salt merchant pushing the salt truck and heading towards Wendeng County, sneered and said, "It's too scammer to deceive the county gate so easily."
The general Silla beside him said, "Anyway, I'm asking him to try it. If I can't cheat and be shot at the city by arrows, it's not our responsibility at that time. Whoever wants him to offend the prince?"
"Idiot!" Jin Chunqiu shouted, "If we can't attack Wendeng, we Silla people will have a dull face. I am here to make contributions, let alone do you think that the civil servant of Zhao State has not been guarded by us?"
"Success!"
The soldiers on the side came to report, but saw a red flag hanging outside the city gate. This was the secret code agreed by Zhou Zhou and Jin Chunqiu, and the city gate was obviously still fighting fiercely.
Jin Chunqiu was stunned when he heard this and said to himself: "It's okay. Is this fool Hongfu Qitian, or is it the King of Zhao who has his own blessing?"
"Prince, what should we do now?"
"What else can I do? Kill!"
Jin Chunqiu shouted loudly, and the responding troops from Silla and Zhao State were moving together. The two soldiers and horses rushed to the city gate.
The Jinchunqiu Hualang warrior is extremely fast, and the journey of this mile is not long before.
When Jin Chunqiu led reinforcements to arrive, the city gate was in a mess and corpses were everywhere. It was obvious that the fierce battle was very fierce.
The suspension bridge lock on the top of the city was cut off, and Zhou Zhou was leading dozens of people to fight with the garrison in the city.
On the city tower, the soldiers at the gate of the city gate saw Jin Chunqiu arrive and fired a round of arrows.
More than a dozen arrows fell weakly under the city, causing no casualties.
Jin Chunqiu led the Hualang warrior into the city. He swung his sword and first cut a general wearing leather armor to death, and the left and right Hualang soldiers rushed in.
The garrison soldiers in the city wanted to counterattack and regain the city gate, but when they saw a large number of enemy reinforcements arrived, they immediately dispersed.
"It's really vulnerable," Zhou Zhou couldn't help but be overjoyed. Chunyu Nan was originally a rebel army. Without any training, the attack on Donglai County brought its main force. The old, weak and remnants left behind in the city.
