Chapter 604 Watergate

At the foot of Baidi City, the army of the Jin State passed through the valley and approached the city, and the Suzaku camp had already prepared the siege equipment.

The tall white emperor city wall is difficult to destroy, and the solid smelted city wall cannot be easily broken through by rushing or riding a car, which is enough to show that Cao Cao has prepared a lot for this battle.

"Baidi City, majestic! Cao Mengde, it's not easy. It seems that a hard fight is necessary to defeat Cao Cao." Han Wu looked at Baidi City from a distance, feeling a lot of pressure on such a huge city.

Baidi City can no longer even be regarded as a city, it should be said to be a huge military fortress!

Cao Cao stood on the tower to the east of Baidi City and looked at the Jin army, and he saw Han Wu among the thousands of troops.

"Han Pengju, the duel between us has officially begun, let me see who can't hold on first!" Cao Cao was full of fighting spirit, and the real battle of attacking and defending the city was next.

Han Wu also saw Cao Cao on the tower, although he was far away and covered by the tower, Han Wu still recognized him.

"Jia Kui, divide your troops to support Zhao Yun and let him reach the north gate of Baidi City as soon as possible. Wen Chou is about to attack the south gate, and we have to prepare for it." After Han Wu finished speaking, he rode his horse back to move Afterwards, the Qilin Camp.

The Jin army in the mountain area was wiped out, and now the Qilin camp was able to advance towards Baidi City.

Tai Shici nodded, knowing that the first wave of strong attack was going to be carried out today.

"Listen to the orders, all soldiers, attack the city!" The Black Mountain Army, led by the soldiers of the Suzaku Battalion, launched an assault on Baidi City. The mighty army has a high deterrent effect.

The east gate of Baidi City was guarded by Wen Qin, a soldier of the Qin Army who was the elite of the Qin Army.

"Soldiers, prepare to fall!"

It can be seen that the Jin army was just a tentative feint attack, so Wen Qin did not intend to use the most sophisticated defensive equipment.

A huge boulder fell from the tower of Baidi City and rolled towards the Jin army vertically, killing many soldiers of the Black Mountain Army.

"what!"

"help me!"

……

The soldiers of the Black Mountain Army of the Jin State wailed, and many people were injured in their thighs by stones, but it was not enough to kill them.The falling rock was not big, but it rolled down along the terrain, and it was more than enough to seriously injure the soldiers of the Black Mountain Army.

Tai Shici looked indifferently at the casualties of the Black Mountain Army soldiers, which were inevitable casualties in siege battles.

Returning to the Qilin camp, all the soldiers and counselors came to the tent of the Chinese army to discuss the siege strategy with His Royal Highness the Prince.

"Your Highness, the current scouts have discovered that the water gate of Baidi City in the northeast is a gap, from which one can sneak into Baidi City. Perhaps it is because Baidi City has been remodeled and the area has expanded a lot, so Cao Cao built the water gate. The water gate is inside Baidi City. The place where it meets the water source outside the city can be used to mobilize troops."

"No, how can Cao Cao not know about the place we can find so easily? This Baidi City is a military fortress built by the Qin people. How can it have such a big weakness?"

"That's right. We have fought against the Qin State for so many years, and we have long known that their battles are not without rules. The water gate is probably a trap. Who knows what terrain will be around after the army enters the city. What should I do if I am ambushed?"

"Then it's not an option to attack directly like this. The White Emperor City is tall and the terrain is good. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. I am afraid that the entire Black Mountain Army will have to be damaged to break through the outer city. This loss is too great."

"Stop, let me think about it." Hearing the noisy quarrel of the soldiers, Han Wu took a deep breath and stared at them coldly.

All the soldiers immediately shut up, and no one dared to make any more noise while His Highness was thinking about countermeasures.

"Pang Tong, tell me your opinion." Han Wu had two decisions in his mind. He wanted to know how Pang Tong planned and whether it was consistent with his own thinking.

Pang Tong pondered, and said: "Shuimen is indeed the best point of attack, but if you want to enter, you will definitely encounter an ambush. If you attack the city directly, you will lose at least 20 troops, but if you attack from the water gate, you will be ambushed. Your Highness, Attack on Minato, I support you."

When the soldiers heard that Pang Junshi supported the raid on the water gate, they stopped arguing and discussing.

Han Wu understood Pang Tong, after all, he was still a guy who liked to make dangerous moves.

"Then, who dares to raid the water gate? It's very dangerous to raid the water gate." Han Wu squinted his eyes and asked these generals, this kind of thing cannot be forcibly assigned tasks.

"I'll go!" Zhang Yun stood up and decided to lead troops to raid the water gate.

"The White Tiger Camp defeated General Xu Huang. This is the last general's crime. The last general is willing to raid the water gate and open the east gate of Baidi City from the inside!" Zhang Yun stood up and asked His Highness for instructions.

Han Wu was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Okay! Then I wish General Zhang He a victory and success in no time! Lu Zhishen listened to the order, and the crown prince ordered you to bring three thousand bloodthirsty tiger guards to sweep the formation for General Zhang He."

"Lu Zhi is so impressed!" Lu Zhi clasped his fists deeply.

That night, Zhang Yun's troops from the White Tiger Battalion of the Jin State went to the water gate northeast of Baidi City, where hundreds of soldiers from the Qin State were in charge of the defense.

It was already late at night, and the state of Qin even set up hundreds of people here to guard the water gate, which is enough to show the importance of this place.

Zhang He narrowed his eyes, and said to his son Zhang Xiong, "Xiong'er, you've almost lost your life in this battle, you go back."

"Father!" Zhang Xiong clenched his teeth, wanting to raid the water gate with his father.

"Hey! Father, be careful. After entering Baidi City, you have entered the enemy's territory." Zhang Xiong knew that he couldn't persuade his father to take him to attack the water gate, so he could only be obedient.

Zhang He snorted softly, gripped the sharp handle of the plain knife, and took the elite soldiers to touch it.

The soldiers of the Qin army guarding the water gate patrolled very rigorously and conscientiously. It is a time of war, and they dare not be negligent in the slightest.

"Brothers, kill!" Zhang Yun lay in ambush in the woods for a long time, and found that the enemy soldiers guarding the water gate were not careless when changing shifts, and no one was lazy to sleep, knowing that it could only be head-to-head.

"Let's go together and enter Baidi City!"

"Brothers, go ahead!"

The elite soldiers of the White Tiger Battalion followed General Zhang Yun and charged towards the water gate in the northeast of Baidi City.

"Not good, there is an enemy attack! Be on guard!" Seeing that the Jin army came to surprise the water gate, the guard of Qin immediately stopped the brothers from meeting the enemy together.

"kill!"

Zhang He rushed into the lineup of the Qin army's soldiers like a sharp sword, tearing a gap in the general's lineup.

"kill!"

The soldiers of the Jin army followed behind Zhang Yun and bravely beheaded the elite of the Qin army. At the same time, many soldiers were beheaded by the Qin defenders. The battle was fierce.

"Quick, beat the drums!"

The guard of the Qin State hid behind him. Seeing the bravery of the soldiers of the Jin army, he immediately ordered drums to pass the news to the city.

Whoosh!
An arrow shot from a distance, pierced the drum of the war drum, and it could no longer make a sound.

"Hmph! Father is going to raid the water gate, and you must not be allowed to send news to the city. Soldiers, obey my father's order and retreat!" Zhang Xiong threw the heavy crossbow to the guards, and looked proudly at the soldiers of the Qin army at the water gate. .

"Damn it!" Qin Jun's guard gritted his teeth, seeing that the war drum was destroyed, he could only order the soldiers to retreat.

In the city, a scout responsible for observing the situation of the water gate ran into the point house on the upper floor of the inner city and told Xiahou Dun the information.

Xiahou Dun squinted his one eye, waved his hand to let the scouts back out, and then smiled excitedly.

"Father, Zhang He is a famous general of the Jin Kingdom. Will he really fall for it?" Xia Houmao was very worried. After all, letting Zhang He enter the water gate was equivalent to letting the enemy into the city.

As Xia Houmao's elder brother, Xia Houchong saw it more thoroughly than him, and said: "Father and the king are not trying to plot against Zhang Yun. If you kill a white tiger battalion, Jin can move out a new white tiger battalion. The key is the main force of the Jin Kingdom, killing them in Baidi City is the real strategy."

Xiahoudun was very satisfied with Xiahouchong's vision, because he was right.

"There are many ambush sites in the city. Han Wu wants to break through the outer city easily, but Sun Bing has 30 yuan, so don't even think about getting close to the inner city. Chonger, you go to the water gate to ambush Zhang Yun. Remember that you can only lose but not win. Of course it can't be a disastrous defeat. Remember to cripple Zhang Yun's troops, and retreat as if you are invincible, you must do it." Xiahou Dun asked his son to plot against Zhang Yun, and let Zhang Yun narrowly win after being ambushed to make them negligent.

Outside the water gate, Zhang He was covered in blood, and the ground was full of the corpses of soldiers from the Qin Army and soldiers from the Jin Army.

"Huh..." Breathing a sigh of relief, Zhang Yun regained his strength as much as possible, and looked at the water flowing out of Baidi City.

"The water gate is in front, and it's very dangerous inside, are you afraid, brothers?" Zhang Yun asked loudly.

"Not afraid!"

"For the sake of the people of the Jin Kingdom, what is there to fear? If you die, you will die. The general orders!"

All the soldiers were filled with righteous indignation, wishing they could rush directly into the water gate.

Zhang He nodded in satisfaction, took the lead, and rushed into the water gate with the soldiers.

Lighting the candle, a pungent stench came from the nostrils, and the sewage in the water gate made the soldiers of the White Tiger Camp feel pain in their brains.

Whoosh!
"what!"

A dozen huge crossbow arrows were shot out, and the soldiers of the White Tiger Camp in the front row were set up as a sieve. Zhang He immediately led the soldiers back.

"I... I'm hurt! Brothers, don't come here, there are traps here! I will continue to explore and follow slowly!"

"I am coming too!"

The soldiers of the Jin State who were shot by crossbow arrows in the front row continued to move forward, enduring the pain of heavy rewards.

There were no soldiers who felt sorrow and sympathy for the injured brothers in the front row. When they decided to follow the general to raid the water gate, they were determined to die.

"what!"

A small ground subsidence suddenly occurred in the front, and the sharp bamboo below it pierced the chest and abdomen of the soldiers who fell into it.

"It's my turn! I'm going to the front row!"

The soldiers behind Zhang He ran forward one after another, using their lives to explore the trap in the water gate.

Seeing the courage of the soldiers to die fearlessly, Zhang Yun's eyes filled with tears, but he wiped away the tears immediately.

"Brothers, for the glory of the state of Jin, for the people of the state of Jin, for our family, go!" Zhang Yun no longer regarded himself as a general, and from now on he was also an ordinary soldier of the state of Jin.

"I'm dead, you are not allowed to surrender, you must fight to the end! Our next task is to rush through the water gate and open the east gate of Baidi City by surprise. I'm dead, the deputy general is on top. The deputy general is dead, Shi Zhang is on top!" Zhang He speeded up, led the soldiers quickly through the water gate, and moved towards the bright exit in the distance.
