Chapter 56
Not long after Li Pu finished speaking, a strong smell of blood came from the camp.

After the killing, Li Pu took the soldiers straight to Rui Township on the edge of the Yellow River.

Rui Township is a ferry crossing of the Yellow River. After crossing Rui Township, it really goes around to the rear of Tongguan Pass.

There is no obstacle ahead, Chang'an is right in front of you!
Li Pu ran for dozens of miles at night, and finally came to Rui Township before dawn. This is a famous ferry on the Yellow River. There are many fishing boats or passenger boats on the shore, but most of them are small boats that have been pulled ashore.

These were the people who had fled in Rui Township. They were reluctant to let their boats soak in the water, so they dragged the boats to the shore and covered them with straw mats, hoping to come back here one day and continue to use their old boats.

This also happened to be convenient for Li Pu. The soldiers dragged the boat on the shore into the water to check whether the boat was in good condition.

These ships are not big, the big ones have been snatched away, so the rest are small boats.

The smaller boats can probably carry five or six soldiers, the larger ones can carry seven or eight, and not even a larger raft.

The Yellow River will enter the dry season in December, at which time the flow will decrease, and even small boats can cross the river. Although it is only November, the water volume has begun to decrease a lot.

Li Pu took the soldiers to cross the Yellow River in small boats. The number of small boats was limited, and they went back and forth two or three times. It was not until dawn that all the soldiers were transported across the Yellow River and came to Huayin.

Huayin refers to the yin side of Mount Hua, which is located in the eastern part of the Guanzhong Plain and is the junction of the three provinces of Qin, Jin, and Henan.

Huayin can be said to be very stable, and this is the base camp of the Tongguan defenders, and Fan Chou's [-] support troops are here.

However, these [-] soldiers lived very leisurely, because although Tongguan was ahead, Li Jue and Guo Si were the soldiers who were assigned to Fan Chou.

Moreover, Li Jue did not dare to run out of food and grass, so the ten thousand defenders were very comfortable eating, drinking and having fun, and no one cared about the city defense.

The same is true of the soldiers stationed on the city wall, standing crookedly, some chatting together, some playing cards together, and some even bringing the woman to the top of the city, causing the soldiers who saw it below the city to roar.

These soldiers had been absurd all night. After dawn, they chased away the idlers who brought them to the city wall. They stood on the city wall yawning and urinated. It happened that someone in the corner was drunk last night. The soldier with a face pointed to the city and began to curse.

"Second Guo of Dog Day!"

The crowd burst into laughter, and the city was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

Guo Lao Er, who was finished with convenience, also laughed and didn't take it to heart.

He turned around and put on his pants, lying on the wall, watching the sunrise outside the city.

A group of red sun appeared from the sky like a burning orange, and along with the red sun, there were also some black ants, which looked like these ants were dragging the sun.

Guo Lao Er thought that he was dazzled, how could the sun have spots, rubbed his eyes and took a closer look, there were more and more ants, and they were getting closer and closer to him.

Only then did Mr. Guo see clearly, what kind of ants are these, this is an army!
And looking at the style of the armor, it's not your own at all, and the only one who can appear here is the Jizhou Army!
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Guo Lao Er hurriedly shouted, but everyone on the city wall didn't quite believe it.

After all, Tongguan has not been broken, how did the enemy army come here?

I want to know that this Guo Lao Er is talking nonsense. He is really bold. He dares to joke about this thing, and he is not afraid of being punished for the crime of lying about military intelligence.

Seeing that there was no response from the crowd, some people even threw the leftover bones and smashed him.

Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Mr. Guo hurried to beat the drum of Chengtou. As soon as the drum sounded, everyone's expressions began to change.

You must know that I just shouted two words just now, and if no one pursues it, it will pass, but when the drum sounds, if it is wrong, it will be decapitated.

One of the generals who was sleeping in the city wall heard the drums, and hurriedly picked up the long spear that had been thrown aside, and threw the jug out of his arms.

The general climbed up the city wall and looked in the direction of Mr. Guo's second finger. The black armor was uniform, and he was obviously not his own.

The general thought for a while, and hurriedly ran down the city wall, missing his whereabouts.

"Huh? Why did General Zhao run away?"

Guo Lao Er looked at the escaped figure of the general surnamed Zhao, thought for a while and hurriedly got off the city wall and ran for his life.

At this time, more and more people saw the enemy army outside the city. There was no one to arrange for the generals, and there were no warriors who were invincible. They all turned their heads and fled.

In the thoughts of these defenders of the city, what does the appearance of an enemy army outside the city mean?
It means Tongguan is broken!Although these people are not many, they may only be the vanguard of the enemy army.

In addition, some people have already started to run away, others have run away, and they are defending the city with weapons?

Do not make jokes!
So the scale of escape is getting bigger and bigger.

Li Pu took the soldiers to cross the Yellow River, and next to the Yellow River was Huayin City, and there were horses in the city. Li Pu did not bring horses at all for the convenience of crossing the river.

And how can the actions of 5000 people be hidden from others, once they are discovered by the defenders, they will mount their horses and besiege and kill their own [-] soldiers.

Although Li Pu didn't look at it, the truth in the army was exposed.

So Li Pu led the soldiers to attack Huayin City directly, and defeated the enemy before they could react!

And Huayin City is not tall, if you hit the enemy by surprise, you can take it.

Just as Li Pu attacked Huayin City, Li Pu heard the sound of drums coming from the city wall.

Li Pu's heart sank and secretly said that it was not good.

Hurry up and hurry up and still be found, but Li Pu is a little strange. Why does the drum sound stop after only a few beatings, and no one in the city is on the city wall. Why?
Li Pu came to the front of the city and slammed the city gate, but he didn't expect that the city gate was not closed tightly, and Li Pu was knocked open by this collision.

"Kill in!"

This kind of opportunity is a rare opportunity, and regardless of whether there is a fraud, Li Pu rushed into the city with a big axe, followed by the De Fali soldiers.

The strange thing is that Li Pu entered the city and found that the city was a mess, and various items were scattered on the street.

"General, I asked the residents of the city. According to him, all the soldiers guarding the city ran away from the east gate."

"Well, I see." I thought I would go through a bloody battle, but I didn't think that the soldiers who guarded the city would be so... rubbish?
"General! General! We found a lot of war horses outside the city!" A soldier ran over and reported his findings to Li Pu.

Li Pu followed his soldiers to a place not far from the city, where there were no less than [-] war horses, or even more.

"Huh? Why do they need so many war horses to defend such a dangerous pass as Tongguan?"
