C237 (2/2)
At the command of the leader, the soldiers brought the ladders up to the city wall. The ladders were built from the height of the city wall, and were placed on the edge of the wall. The Generals led the way up the ladder, and the soldiers followed suit.
”Enemy attack …”
”Enemy attack …”
”Enemy attack …”
Li Jing's city wall was not big, in a few moments the Han army climbed to the top of the city wall, and just as the officer climbed onto the city wall, he was immediately discovered by the korean soldiers. Then, the korean's patrolling korean began to shout loudly. The ear-piercing sound immediately broke the tranquility of the air above the castle.
”Kill …”
When the high-ranking officer saw that he had been discovered, he immediately shouted. The Chinese Army Soldiers s followed his shout and rushed towards the korean people with their blades raised. The Han Chinese army did not expect that when those korean people turned around and ran, not a single one of them turned around to fight the Korean Army Soldiers.
”Charge!”
The Korean Army Soldiers that had yet to ascend the city walls all brought their ladders over, and the battle of siege soon turned into a climb down competition. Not long later, all three squads of soldiers successfully climbed up the city walls, carried their long knife and rushed into the castle.
Li Jing's servants lived in the East Gate. Although there were only three hundred of them, they were Li Jing's most elite and most loyal guards. Not long after they left the barracks, they came face to face with the approaching Chinese army.
”Kill …”
Almost at the same time, both sides started shouting, brandishing their weapons and sabers as they charged towards each other. The Chinese Army Generals waved his long knife and rushed into the servants' formation, thrusting his blade towards the leading servant. The two of them were not even able to fight, and the leading servant was cut down on the ground.
Although the korean people guarding the city could not withstand a single blow, these servants were Li Jing's regular army. Whether it was equipment or training, they were all much stronger than the young men s that were gathered at the last minute. For a moment, they actually withstood the Han army's attack, and were ready to fight the Han army.
However, more and more Chinese Army Soldiers s rushed into the castle from the city wall. The A large number of the Korean Army s rushed forward like the tide, the sharp long knife s and the strong armor made it hard for the servants to catch up, in the blink of an eye, a large part of them were chopped down. Seeing that the A large number of the Korean Army had arrived in the city, the servants could only retreat and fight, slowly retreating towards the city.
Li Jing, who had been hesitating about whether to surrender or run away, was still awake. Seeing that the Han army had already restricted the time to two hours to go by and did not see any Han army attacking, he secretly rejoiced over it, but suddenly heard a heaven shaking battle cry from the East Gate. He quickly picked up a handful of hunting knife s from the wall and rushed into the courtyard in a few steps.
”Reporting...” ”Master, it's bad, the Han army is coming to the city.” A few servants ran in, crying loudly. Their bodies were already covered in blood, as if they had been stabbed. There was even a servant who fell right after running into the yard.
”Damned Han army, didn't they say they want to burn down the castle? Why did they attack the castle?” Aren't they on the west side? Why are they attacking us from the east? ” Li Jing didn't know how to react at that moment, and shouted loudly. It wasn't known if he was talking to himself, or asking a question to someone!
”Master, the Chinese are all cunning people, who knows what they are doing? ”Since the Han army has already invaded the castle, let's hurry up and run. Taking advantage of the dark sky, the Han army might not chase after them.” Li Jing's Grand Commander Li Yan immediately ran over and suggested.
”Go gather all the servants, we will retreat from the south gate immediately!” Li Jing knew that he could no longer hesitate and anxiously shouted. Fortunately, he was already prepared. The servants quickly loaded the valuables onto the backs of the horses, helped his family onto the horses, and ran towards the south gate.
At this time, the castle was already filled with shouts and shouts, the korean s who had just been summoned had already slipped down the walls and ran. By the time Li Jing rushed to the South of the City's gate, there were already no longer any korean people guarding the gate. Li Jing couldn't be bothered anymore and rode his horse out of the southern gate, disappearing into the boundless night.
It was just dawn when Sun Guan, Wu Dun and a large group of Han troops arrived at Li Jing's castle. At this time, Li Jing's castle had already returned to peace, the guards on the city wall had already changed to the Chinese army. Li Da stood at the entrance of the castle, welcoming his comrades who had returned victoriously.
”Reporting to the lord, last night we captured Li Jing's castle, but we let Li Jing escape.” Li Da hurriedly reported to Sun Guan and Wu Dun. He even smiled embarrassedly.
”It's fine as long as his people don't run.” Sun Guan patted Li Da's shoulder, and encouraged him with a smile.
”Reporting to the lord, we have captured one of Li Jing's scribe. According to him, Li Jing's tribe is scattered all over the place, and they won't be able to escape anytime soon.” Li Da had already interrogated the scribe overnight and grasped some information, ”However, he said that it is possible for Li Jing to run to King Qian to ask for his help, and before long, the King Qian will gather the korean's army to attack.”
”Oh …” The korean army? ” If they were to attack the Triple Korea, of course Sun Guan had heard of the situation in the Triple Korea. Hearing about the army of some korean, Sun Guan became interested and hurriedly asked, ”What else did he say?”
”He said that the Tribal Alliance was formed by twelve tribes and had about fifteen ten thousand people s, and that these tribes and their leaders recommended the King Qian s. Once a tribe is under attack, the King Qian would mobilize the armies of the other tribes to assist them.” Li Da learnt from his mistakes and immediately told Sun Guan and Wu Dun.
