Night falls.
The night was dim, and everything was dark, as if it knew something was going on.
The crescent moon also hid in the clouds, refusing to show its face.
On the Yangpingguan city wall, although torches and fire trays were lit, lighting up everywhere, but in this night, looking out from the city wall, one could only see clearly the area within 300 meters, and beyond.
Three hundred meters away, all I could see was pitch black. but.
Neither Yang Ang nor Yang Ren in the city cared about these situations.
There were still only a thousand defenders guarding the city wall.
The two of them did not go to inspect the city wall.
In their opinion, no one would attack Yangping Pass, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Even if there were, there were a thousand defenders on the city wall, which would be enough to support their mobilization.
The rest of the troops arrived, repulsed the enemy and defended Yangping Pass.
The only one who has launched a conquest against Hanzhong is Jingzhou.
Now that Zhao Yun is leading 30,000 troops to attack Jiameng Pass, he only needs to pay attention to the battle there.
The two of them met for a drink.
Originally, they proposed to lead his troops behind the Jingzhou Army and attack the Jingzhou Army with Yang Bai from Jiameng Pass.
However, Zhang Lu refused because of Chang'an's attack.
There was some movement of soldiers and horses, and they were afraid that Chang'an's soldiers and horses would also take the opportunity to attack, so they were asked to stay at Yangping Pass and were not allowed to send troops.
Although he had regrets, he could only obey Zhang Lu's order and guard Yangping Pass.
However, when the two of them thought that there was no accident in Yang Pingguan.
Yangping Guanzhong.
The back door of the two inns was quietly opened, and a figure walked out, taking advantage of the darkness and slowly approaching the city gate.
These black shadows walked on the streets at night and did not attract any attention, because there were no patrol officers in the city.
At this time, the people also fell asleep. so.
The people who came out of the back doors of the two inns encountered no accidents.
They slowly gathered together and approached the city gate.
In front of the city gate passage.
There were fifty defenders, holding long spears, guarding there.
Two fire disks were lit on both sides, illuminating the open space two hundred meters in front of the city gate passage.
A dark place in a house.
All these people who came secretly gathered here.
After all, not far from here is the city gate.
"Zhong Ye, first deal with the guards in front of the city gate passage.
Then you will lead a hundred soldiers to guard the stairs.
The defenders on the city wall cannot be allowed to break through.
I will lead fifty soldiers to guard in front of the passage.
The rest of the soldiers will guard the passage.
Go and open the city gate and let the army enter the city."
In the darkness, a man said.
These people were Wei Yan, Wenpin, and two hundred elite Jingzhou troops who had sneaked into the city disguised as businessmen.
"Okay," Wenpin nodded.
They had sneaked into the city before and had to pay some gold and silver to get into the city.
However, compared to being able to sneak into the city and pay some gold and silver, it was nothing.
As long as the officials in the city thought that they were real businessmen. , that is enough.
Wei Yan looked at everyone and shouted in a low voice: "Do it" Immediately, he took out the saber from his waist and walked outside.
Wenpin and the two hundred elite Jingzhou troops did not hesitate.

They took out the weapons from their waists and followed Wei Yan out.
"Who are you?"
The soldiers guarding the city gate passage saw someone coming out of the darkness.
One of the generals stepped forward and asked.
The rest of the guards also became alert and pointed their spears at Wei Yan and others.
"kill" Wei Yan shouted loudly and ran directly to kill the defenders in the city gate passage.
"kill" Wenpin and others also shouted, brandishing their weapons, and rushed towards the city gate passage.
"The enemy attacks, the enemy attacks and defends," the general shouted.
The fifty city gate defenders were already on guard, but upon seeing this situation, they quickly formed a defensive formation.
Poof, poof However, the city gate defenders who had put up a defensive formation could not stop Wei Yan and Wenpin at all.
The two waved their sabers and tore through the defensive formation in one go, cutting down several people.
Two hundred elite Jingzhou troops also followed and killed them.
There were only fifty city gate defenders, so how could they be their opponents?
They didn't last long before they were wiped out, and they didn't even have time to react to the defenders on the city wall. ah Wei Yan killed the last general with one blow, and all fifty defenders in front of the city gate were wiped out.
He shouted: "Open the city gate quickly!"
Then, dozens of people rushed into the city gate passage to open the city gate.
Wenpin also led a hundred soldiers to block the stairs to prevent the defenders on the city wall from rushing down.
Wei Yan took out a loud arrow from his arms, sent out a signal, and led fifty soldiers to guard in front of the city gate passage to buy time for the soldiers who opened the city gate.
The loud shouts, screams, and fighting sounds below the city gate also attracted the attention of the defenders above the city wall.
They sent someone to investigate and saw that all the fifty defenders in front of the city gate were cut down to the ground, the stairs were blocked, and the city gate fell into the hands of the enemy.
The general on the city wall was suddenly shocked and shouted: "Quickly organize the defenders, attack them, and take back the city gate!"
As a partial general, he also knows the importance of the city gate.
Since there are enemy troops coming to seize the city gate, it means that there must be soldiers and horses who want to attack Yangping Pass, and they are still waiting outside the city.
Once the city gate Doors open, consequences.
He also couldn't understand how the enemy army could sneak into the city and capture the city gate so quickly.
But the most important thing now was to recapture the city gate, so he summoned a thousand soldiers and horses on the city wall to attack When going down.
Bang A loud arrow rose from in front of the city gate and exploded high in the night sky.
The reason why the sounding arrows are released before the city gate is opened is also decided by Zhuge Liang.
If the sounding arrows are released in advance, Zhuge Liang will command the army to rush over.
Then the city gate is opened and the army can enter directly without wasting time.
Avoid any bad accidents.
However, the city defender did not know this and ignored it, so he wanted to lead the assembled thousand defenders to recapture the city gate.
"Kill kill kill" From a dark place outside the city that could not be seen, there were shouts of killing and the sound of galloping horses rushing towards Yangping Pass.
Seeing the sound of the arrow rising, Zhuge Liang, who had already led the army to ambush at the designated location, without any hesitation, directly ordered the army to attack Yangping Pass.
He himself led more than a hundred cavalry and stayed at the end.
"You lead five hundred soldiers to kill and recapture the city gate.
You must not let them open the city gate.
After the breakthrough, immediately send someone to report to the two generals and ask for reinforcements.
The rest of the troops will defend the city wall and you must not let the enemy troops rush to the city." shouted.
As long as the city gate is there, everything is still possible.
"promise" A general who was pointed at by the side general did not hesitate and responded.
He led five hundred soldiers and went up the stairs to take back the city gate.
There are only about two hundred enemy troops under the city, so there is still a great chance
