Chapter Thirty-Seven: Swarming into the City


Cheng Yaojin, who was guarding Luokou Cang, was awakened by a guard.

Cheng Yaojin stood up straight from the bed and sat upright on the bed board.

He yelled: "Why did it get up so quickly today?

It feels like we didn't even sleep for long."

Cheng Yaojin would usually instruct his soldiers to wake him up before he woke up at dawn.

So he thought it was dawn now.

But before the soldier could speak, Cheng Yaojin, who yawned, realized something was wrong, "Damn it, it's not even dawn yet, why don't you wake me up?"

Cheng Yaojin scolded angrily.

The soldier broke into tears and interrupted him: "General, the Sui Army, the Sui Army has entered Luokou."

Before he could finish his words, Cheng Yaojin jumped up from the bed like a carp and caught the soldier.

The skirt shouted: "What did you say?"

"The Sui army entered Luokou" Half an hour ago, the first person to spot the Sui army was a civilian who was resting in the camp next to Luoshui River.

These civilian husbands were all recruited by Li Mi to build Xingluo City.

They were not only civilian husbands, but also served as auxiliary soldiers to transport grain and build camps when necessary.

After these civilian auxiliary soldiers were killed by the wolf-like and tiger-like Sui army, they did not dare to shout wildly and raised their hands to beg for mercy.

A large number of Sui troops then passed through the half-built Xingluo city wall next to the Minfu camp and rushed toward Luokou Cang.

Luokou Cang has water gates on both Luoshui River and the Yellow River.

Logically speaking, these Sui troops could drive Viking ships directly into Luokou from Shuimen.

But Cheng Yaojin, who was guarding Luokou, had already asked the soldiers to close the two city gates tightly.

It was not convenient for the Sui army to climb the city wall from the water, so they landed ten miles away from Luokou.

In Xingluo City, which has not yet been built, that is, in the outer city back to Luocang, there are many patrolling Wagang Army teams, ranging from hundreds to dozens of people, as well as some open posts and secret sentries.

It was impossible for such a huge and dark Sui army to go unnoticed.

A few moments later, shouts of enemy attack began one after another.

The defenders on the wall of Luokoucang noticed the commotion outside and looked over.

The soldiers who were already sleeping were shouted by the leaders, picked up their weapons and gathered towards the top of the city.

At this moment, arrows like a shower of locusts were shot towards the top of the city, and the Xiaoguo Imperial Guard crossbowmen below the city had begun to scatter with their repeating crossbows.

The Sui army came too quickly There was no need to aim in the dark, just relying on the concentration of arrows to make the soldiers who looked down were hit by arrows in the face or head and fell to the ground dead.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of soft ropes with flying claws were launched with powerful crossbows to the top of the city that was several battles high.

The most elite hundreds of Xiaoguo guards in the entire army, wearing heavy armor, climbed up to the top of the city along the soft ropes.

The dozen or so defenders who were the first to come back to their senses swung their swords to chop at the soft ropes.

After cutting off a few of them, several cold rays struck their sides.

Some gun blades or knife blades stabbed or hacked into their bodies.

Behind them, more and more Xiaoguo troops climbed up the city wall.

By the time Cheng Yaojin arrived, hundreds of Xiaoguo soldiers had gathered on top of the city.

The alerted Wagang Army defenders were pouring in from both sides of the city wall.

The two sides immediately fought together, and the Sui army struggled to block these Wagang soldiers to prevent them from retaking the city tower that had been controlled by the Sui army.

A dozen Xiaoguo guards in the tower were working hard to turn the winch.

The suspension bridge had been lowered, and what they were doing now was to open the gate.

When Cheng Yaojin saw it, he became anxious, roared, and rushed forward with the ax in his hand, slashing left and right.

When the soldiers of Wagang Army saw their general coming, their morale was greatly boosted.

They all followed Cheng Yaojin and fought bravely, intending to recapture the city gate before the Sui army opened it.

A brave soldier chopped open the head of a Wagang soldier who was not wearing a helmet with a sharp knife.

He was pierced into the body by a spear, but the spear only pierced his fine iron fish scales and was exhausted.

The spearman was preparing to charge up his strength and send the spear deep into the opponent's body when a strong arrow from a repeating crossbow hit him in the face.

The spearman let out a wail and fell backwards on his back.

The brave soldier who was slightly injured by the spear blade used his luck to slash the blade into the neck of another Wagang soldier.

The Wagang soldier's head was instantly hung on his chest by a layer of skin.

Throwing himself forward to the ground.

This brave warrior killed several people in a row, and the smell of blood stimulated his fighting spirit, but unexpectedly, a big ax fell from the sky and chopped his head into pieces.

Cheng Yaojin picked up the bloody ax and swung it at another Xiaoguo soldier again.

Unexpectedly, the soldier blocked the ax with his big shield.

The big shield cracked, but the soldier threw the shield away and held the ax in his arms.

Cheng Yaojin dragged the ax back with all his strength, but the ax seemed to grow out of the body of the Xiaoguo Army soldier.

He was tightly hugged by the opponent and dragged the soldier's body towards Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin became anxious and twirled his ax, trying to make the other party let go.

At the same time, several spears stabbed at him quickly, although most of them were stopped by the soldiers beside Cheng Yaojin.

But with a pop, his arm was still solidly shot.

At this time, Cheng Yaojin was also horrified.

He had heard about Xiaoguo Army's skills, but he didn't expect that the soldiers could be so brave.

Under the city, the gate is slowly opening.

After hearing the news, the Wagang Army from other parts of Xingluo City came to reinforce them one after another.

But they were all defeated one by one by the royal court's heavy cavalry on guard.

When the gate rises as high as one person.

Lai Huer waved his hand from the air and shouted: "The Xiaoguo Guard Pioneer Battalion and the Tianxing Army's Spear Battalion enter Luokou Warehouse.

The rest of the people follow me and continue to strangle the Wagang bandits outside Luokou Warehouse."

After listening to his order, a large number of soldiers from the Sui army rushed towards Luokou like a tide.

The pikemen also formed several square formations and entered the city gate.

Seeing such a scene, the Wagang troops on the top of the city withdrew into the city.

If the Sui army entered the city, they would first seal the corridor leading from the city wall to the bottom of the city.

At that time, the Wagang army who was still sneaking at the top of the city was like a turtle in the urn.

Cheng Yaojin, who had lost his battle ax, with a flushed face, pulled out the sword from his waist and intended to fight again.

A dozen soldiers around him quickly grabbed hold of him and shouted: "General, if you don't leave, it's too late."

After that, they dragged Cheng Yaojin towards the city.

There are 30,000 Wagang garrison troops in Xingluo City, 10,000 of whom are stationed at Luokou Cang.

At this time, a large number of Sui troops had poured into Luokou Cang.

The mountain spearmen are particularly suitable for urban terrain with flat terrain and crisscrossed streets.

Under the skilled command of their superiors, they worked together at different times, changing various formations, cooperating with each other, and repeatedly sweeping away the remaining enemies on the streets.

The streets they passed through seemed to have been swept by a huge broom, and there was not a single living Wagang Army soldier in sight.

The battle situation outside Luokou Cang was also one-sided.

The Wagang troops who came for reinforcements from other places in Xingluo City were easily defeated one by one by heavy cavalry and light armored flying cavalry, and were even completely wiped out
