Chapter 725 sneak attack on Texas City(1/2)
Li Tong stood up and asked the generals sitting here to express their opinions. After a while, various plans were introduced one after another.
"General Zhang, give the order!"
Li Channel.
Zhang He nodded.
"Gao Lan listened to the order and led a reinforced company to lurk into Dezhou City. Three days later, he launched an operation at night. He must seize the city gate and enlarge the army into the city without any mistakes."
Zhang He said.
"As you command!"
Gaolan Road.
Gao Lan was one of the Four Court Pillars in Hebei Province, and his military force was very good. He and Zhang He served under Han Fu's account and were not reused.
When the coalition forces attacked Dong, Qin Qi exchanged the best wine for Zhang He from Han Fu. At that time, Qin Qi did not know that Gao Lan was also in the coalition forces.
Later, Gao Lan, who stayed in Yuan Shao's army, was not reused and saw Zhang He prospering in Xiakou army.
Then he ran to Xuzhou to join Zhang He and became a soldier under Zhang He's tent. He was promoted step by step and became Zhang He's assistant.
At this time, Gao Lan was already a one-star brigadier general, deputy division commander, and a senior general. He had served in the Lu Su Corps in the past few years.
It was dark the next day. After putting on makeup, Gao Lan led a reinforced company of soldiers and rushed towards Dezhou City in batches.
There are a large number of city defenders standing on the walls of Dezhou City. Dozens of city defenders stand on both sides of the city gate, strictly interrogating people entering Dezhou City and collecting entry fees.
Texas borders the plains, and inspections were very strict during this period.
"Stop, there is something in the car, waiting for inspection."
The guard at the city gate scolded.
"Sir, there is salt in the car. There is nothing there. Check it out. We are legal traders."
A Xiakou Hōdō wearing make-up.
At the same time, he took out a cloth bag containing a large number of five-baht coins and forced it into the hands of the defenders, with a smile on his face, a nod and a bow.
The defenders shook their hands, thinking deeply, understanding in their hearts.
"Come in!"
Guarding the city.
Guchi!
Guchi!
More than ten people pushed the carriage into the city and immediately looked for the contact code for the gathering point.
After a while, more than ten people arrived at a yard near the entrance of Nancheng.
After Gao Lan and others entered the city, they spent money to buy this courtyard from the people, along with the adjacent courtyard.
This will serve as a stronghold for Xiakou's army to lurk into the city.
During the day, Gao Lan led several people to separately investigate the situation in the city, summarize the situation one by one, and then come back to discuss countermeasures.
In two days, a reinforced company soldier quietly entered Dezhou City through various makeup methods.
Three days came in a blink of an eye.
When the night becomes quieter, the whole city goes to rest.
When the wind is high and the night is dark, it is a good time to kill people and set fires.
Gao Lan took action with 300 Xiakou Army soldiers. They all dressed in night clothes and quietly walked out of the yard.
Slowly lurk and walk against the wall.
After midnight, there were basically no people on the street. After all, this was ancient times and there were no entertainment venues.
At night, what can you do if you don't sleep?
It's late autumn, and the biting cold wind blows on people's bodies, causing goosebumps to appear on the skin.
It’s cold!
It's really cold!
Within a quarter of an hour, Gao Lan led 300 Xiakou Army soldiers to lurk at the city gate.
At this time, the city defenders on duty were leaning against the city wall and sleeping with their eyes closed, and the duty room at the city gate had been closed.
Gao Lan made a gesture.
brush!
More than dozens of soldiers quietly arrived outside the door of the duty room and formed a battle formation to prepare. The remaining soldiers followed Gao Lan and climbed up the city wall.
He drew out his short sword and began to assassinate the defenders on the city wall.
Covering the defender's mouth with his left hand, he lightly slashed the opponent's neck with the short knife in his right hand.
puff!
A stream of blood spurted out.
Dead!
A city defender did not know how he died and became a confused man.
The defenders on the city wall were assassinated one by one.
A veteran guarding the city smelled the smell of blood in his sleep. He quickly opened his eyes and saw that a comrade had died.
ah!
The heartbreaking scream completely broke the silent night, the sound resounded through the sky, waking up people in their sleep.
brush!
Gao Lan stepped forward and mercilessly pierced the chest of the shouting veteran with the short knife in his hand.
puff!
Blood spurted out, the shouting stopped, and the body slowly fell.
The shouts of the veteran defenders woke up the sleeping defenders on the city wall and saw that the city wall was being attacked.
They all stood up and charged towards the Xiakou soldiers.
After waking up the defenders on the city wall, Gao Lan and others did not need to carefully assassinate them. They immediately formed battle formations and attacked the newly awakened defenders on the city wall.
puff!
One of the city defenders died.
Gao Lan commanded the Xiakou soldiers and launched a fierce battle against the defenders on the city wall, hoping to solve the problem in a short time.
Click!
puff!
A Xiakou soldier slashed out with his sword, cutting off the weapon in the hand of the defender, but the sword continued to slash towards the opponent's chest.
At the moment of life and death, the defenders twisted their bodies to avoid important parts.
An arm falls.
ah!
Heart-rending screams sounded.
It was too sudden.
The city defenders were caught off guard. When they reacted, there were already more than 200 corpses on the city wall.
The soldiers who lurked into Dezhou City this time were all carefully selected veterans of Zhang He's division. They were extremely powerful in combat and were definitely among the best in the entire division.
Once the Liuhua Battle Formation is formed, it will be like a life-devouring black hole, constantly devouring the lives of the defenders.
Powerful.
Overcoming thorns and thorns, invincible!
A defender on the famous city wall fell in a pool of blood.
"Open the city gate and lower the drawbridge!"
Gao Lan ordered.
A soldier from the Rikka Battle Formation rushed to the side of the suspension bridge, cut off the rope of the suspension bridge without hesitation, and lowered the bridge.
Bang!
The heavy suspension bridge fell with a loud noise.
At the city gate, the exclamations of the veteran defenders on the city wall completely woke up the sleeping defenders in the duty room.
One by one, they quickly got up and rushed out of the duty room with their weapons in hand.
To be continued...
