Chapter 547: Alarm Bell
Then, Luo Siping looked at the last person: "Fourth, you take fifty people to respond in the middle, cover the fifth and seventh and their evacuation, and then rush to the south gate to meet us together, at the critical moment, you can organize some people to storm the city gate." Everyone nodded in unison.
Luo Siping took a deep breath, looked around at everyone and said, "Also, everyone try to protect themselves, I hope that after this incident, our brothers can drink and visit the Qinglou together." Several masters in the dark night laughed when they heard this, and they left after commenting on the brothel Qinglou in Ewha County.
Luo Siping and they infiltrated Pear Blossom City very early, and after a period of lurking, they also bought a lot of officials and officials in the city, and lured many dark night members into Pear Blossom County through smuggling and other channels, at this time, there were more than 400 dark night members in Pear Blossom County, and even Yuan Fang had to admire Luo Siping's methods when he learned the news.
In fact, Luo Siping had no choice, originally Luo Siping planned to send people to gradually infiltrate the hinterland of the Ningyuan Empire, but he didn't expect that the east of the Lihua County City had been blocked by the defenders of the Ningyuan Empire, and he couldn't pass without clearing the customs at all, even if he found a small way to go over, he couldn't enter the nearby city, and the defenders of the blockade line were tightly defended, and it was difficult to hide in the plains nearby. happened to get the news that Yuan Fang was preparing to attack the county town of Lihua, so he summoned all the manpower to cooperate with Yuan Fang.
Of course, Luo Siping and their hundreds of people are nothing compared to thousands of defenders, but as Luo Siping just said, their task is not to occupy the city gate, but to destroy, as long as the city gate is opened, Yuan Fang leads the army into the city, without the support of the city wall, with the strength of the defenders of Lihua County City can not resist at all, in other words, as long as Luo Siping and they can destroy the city gate, this siege battle is basically over.
Luo Siping's task is very critical and very important, but Yuan Fang did not pin all his hopes on Luo Siping and them, after all, there are no absolutes in the world, once Luo Siping is lost, Yuan Fang still has a backhand, that is, a strong attack, with the 10,000 heavy infantry of the Rock Legion as the main force, plus the combined iron pipe siege cloud tower made by the military factory, and a lot of strong bows and crossbows, Yuan Fang is confident that he will attack the county town in a period of time, of course, the casualties of the strong attack will be very large, in contrast, Yuan Fang still hopes that Luo Siping and they can succeed.
For the next whole day, Luo Siping was restless, the reason was that the county town had been under martial law, and all the city gates were closed, Luo Siping sent people to inquire in many ways and couldn't figure out the reason, he was faintly worried that Yuan Fang and they would be exposed in advance, but fortunately, there were so many city defense troops, and the Ningyuan Empire had not sent other troops over for the time being, but he didn't know what the specific situation was outside, so he could only pray silently that no accidents would happen.
Late at night, Luo Siping still couldn't sleep, put on a piece of clothing and walked out of the house, stood in the courtyard and looked up at the cold crescent moon in the sky, and sighed: "When is this kind of day a head." ”
In the darkness in the corner of the courtyard, a slightly smiling voice sounded: "The second master, the big boss, they should be almost there, didn't they say that they sent the news last time, they are already about to arrive at Kaiyang Port, I estimate that it will be there tomorrow at the latest and the day after tomorrow, and then we will have nothing to do if we destroy the city gate." ”
Luo Siping smiled bitterly and said, "Ermao, is the kid thinking about things too simply?" Are the gates so easy to break? I don't know how many brothers will die when the time comes? ”
Ermao said disapprerovantly: "Cut, death is death, that is a bad life." ”
Suddenly, there was a noise in the west of the city, and then, the urgent alarm bell sounded, Luo Siping was stunned, and looked at the west of the city with a puzzled expression: "They have arrived?" ”
Ermao, who had been hiding in the dark, walked to Luo Siping's side, looked curiously at the west city wall where the firelight was constantly lit, and said excitedly: "The alarm bell is ringing, representing the enemy attack, the second master, it must be the big boss They have arrived, this speed is really fast enough." ”
Luo Siping finally recovered from the shock, and hurriedly ordered: "Ermao, quickly, go to the west of the city to inquire and see if they have arrived." Ermao smiled, and the figure disappeared into the darkness.
While getting dressed, Luo Siping instructed his subordinates who were awakened: "Go find a few other masters to come over, quickly, gather all the brothers to take their places, and be ready to do it at any time." Three bald people, hurry up and go to the secret room to take out all our weapons and distribute them, quickly, all move, don't stand stupidly. ”
The alarm bell kept ringing like an infectious disease, and after a while, the alarm bells on the city walls in the south, north and east of the city were also sounded, and torches were lit one by one, and the city defense army hurriedly climbed to the top of the city, and the sleeping Ewha County gradually woke up.
Luo Siping was anxious, he lost contact with Yuan Fang yesterday, and the previous arrangement obviously needed to be adjusted, and he didn't know if it was too late.
While anxiously waiting, several other masters came one after another, and a few of them didn't even have time to put on their clothes, so they came running shirtless and wearing a pair of pants.
As soon as the fifth master entered the hospital, he anxiously asked: "The second master, have they arrived?" ”
Luo Siping smiled bitterly and said: "It should be, I'm not sure yet, Ermao has already gone to investigate, fifth brother, did you encounter any trouble when you came over?" ”
Lao Wu shook his head: "No, there are many ordinary people who are not afraid of death on the road to come out to see the excitement, the city defense army is busy going to the city wall, and the city is already in chaos." ”
At this time, Ermao came back, and without waiting for Luo Siping to ask, he hurriedly said: "Ermaster, there is martial law over there in Xicheng, I heard that there are a large number of enemy troops coming, I don't know who it is." Luo Siping nodded, and according to the previous situation, the troops coming from the west were either Yuan Fang or Yu Zhan's cavalry troops.
Ermao's eyes were full of excitement and asked, "Second master, what should we do now?" Do you want to do it? Several other masters looked at Luo Siping together, waiting for him to make up his mind.
Luo Siping was a little hesitant, the most important thing is to grasp the timing, early, the enemy will remedy it, late, the enemy is on guard, this time is really difficult to grasp.
After hesitating for a moment, Luo Siping asked, "Ermao, how is the movement of the city defense army?" ”
Ermao replied: "On the way back, I found that many city defense troops were rushing to the west of the city, and there were many officials along the way, and the main road was already under martial law, so I still came back from the trail." ”
Luo Siping then asked, "What about the south of the city?" How's that over there? Is there any movement? ”
Ermao shrugged: "Although there are also many city defense troops from the south, but it doesn't look like there are many of them, the second master, why don't I go to the south of the city again?" ”
