Chapter 1208 Loyalty to the Country
Chapter 1208 Loyalty to the Country
The soldier was so intimidated by Du Sanbao, he quickly responded, saying that he would investigate immediately...
That night, Du Sanbao took over as the general guarding the south gate, and asked him to guard the north gate. Then he quietly called the 24 brothers who dug through with him on weekdays, and prepared to wait until the Xiliang soldiers rested. Then go out of the city to attack the camp.
Although General Liu said... His Majesty said that they are not allowed to attack the camp tonight, but as the general of the Great Zhou, how could Du Sanbao miss this good opportunity?
"Your Majesty said that attacking the camp is not allowed, so it is definitely impossible to take the team out of the city. We can only do it secretly." Du Sanbao said in a low voice, "Tomorrow Xiliang will attack the city, so don't give it to Xiliang tonight." The cool people are making trouble, could it be possible to let them get enough sleep...will they come and beat us tomorrow? This is absolutely impossible!"
"But...General, there are only twenty of us, even if we give up our lives, there will probably not be much commotion in the Xiliang barracks!" Someone said to Du Sanbao with a look of embarrassment.
"So, I asked someone to collect all the firecrackers that have not been set off during the New Year in Gyantse City. We can take them with us. When the Xiliang Army is sleeping well, give him all the kerosene, torches... firecrackers. Throw it into the barracks! It's always enough for them to drink a pot!" Du Sanbao gritted his teeth when he mentioned the Xiliang army, and said, "Let's leave two people in the city, and then set off from the south gate. As soon as we leave... these two people will immediately go to General Liu Pinggao and tell General Liu Pinggao that I have led people to attack the camp in four directions: east, west, south, and north. If the Xiliang military camp is on fire, we will retreat, and General Liu Pinggao will definitely open the city gate for us!"
"General, can what you say work?" A general of the Great Zhou hesitated, "It's not that the last general is afraid of death, but we will kill first and play later... we will be dealt with by military law later on!"
"Don't worry! General Liu Pinggao also wanted to attack the Xiliang barracks, but... Your Majesty is afraid that our soldiers will perish in vain!" Du Sanbao looked as if he understood the meaning of Bai Qing's words. Dead people? Tomorrow Xiliang will attack the city, we have to mess with them! Besides, we don’t want to confront them head-on!”
Seeing that the other soldiers were still hesitating, Du Sanbao said again: "Furthermore, how many times have I, Du Sanbao, done things like beheading first and playing later, and which time did I mess things up? The people below must know how to share worries for His Majesty, Your Majesty." Now she is pregnant!"
Hearing what Du Sanbao said, several soldiers remembered that Bai Qingyan alone ordered Du Sanbao to take them to dig a tunnel, which showed that Bai Qingyan trusted Du Sanbao.
They looked up at Du Sanbao, and said solemnly: "We listen to General Du and are willing to sacrifice our lives to be loyal to His Majesty! But... General, my subordinates think that we don't need to alarm General Liu. After lighting the fire, we will run through the tunnel we dug Just come back! We haven’t sealed the passage, so we’ll just leave the two brothers watching the entrance.”
Du Sanbao thought for a while, then smiled: "You kid, you want to do good deeds without leaving your name behind!"
"Anyway, they are all loyal to the country, so if you don't leave your name, you won't be punished!" The young general smiled.
"However, you have to go out through the south gate, otherwise the horse and the things we want to bring can't be brought out through such a small hole!" Du Sanbao looked up at the soldiers and said, "It will depend on the situation at that time. The people of Xiliang bite tightly... opening and closing the city gate will threaten the safety of the city, so we try to come back from the cave, if the Xiliang people don't find out, we'd better come back from the city gate, horses are also very precious!"
"You stay in the city, boy. You are still very accurate in archery. When we leave the city, if you see the Xiliang spies move! Just shoot them to death without mercy!" Du Sanbao turned to the one who did good deeds and did not want to stay The well-known young general said, "Let's take our brothers on the city wall and do enough to scare those idiots from Xiliang to death!"
The matter was decided by Du Sanbao. He led twenty-two people on horses covered with kerosene and firecrackers, and falsely passed on his order to ride out of the city on fast horses...
The scouts from Xiliang saw that the gate of Gyantse City was opened again, and sent someone back to report the news, but these days, Da Zhou has always teased Xiliang like this, but it was only a small matter.
But who would have thought that before the spies went back to report the news, as soon as they got up and moved, the arrows whizzed from nowhere above the city gate, directly from the heart of the Xiliang spies, and the spies fell to the ground before they could utter a scream. out of breath.
After being teased continuously for the past few days, the scouts from Xiliang, who had already been slackened, immediately perked up when they saw this, and looked up at the city wall of Gyantse, not daring to breathe, and stiffened, listening Upstairs, a rough general shouted, "Hurry up, hurry up! Get your spirits up, the raid on the camp tonight must break down the morale of Xiliang! Hurry up!"
The Xiliang spy quietly crawled out of the shooting range of the crossbow, backed out of the shooting range, and shouted loudly: "Da Zhou is going to attack the camp! Da Zhou is going to attack the camp!"
Here, the Xiliang spies shouted at the top of their voices, Du Sanbao and his cavalry had already thrown all the kerosene, torches and firecrackers into the Xiliang barracks.
The soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty rushed out, threw the kerosene jars, torches, and firecrackers in, and rushed towards the city of Gyantse.
The fire in the Xiliang barracks suddenly rose high, and the firecrackers exploded, first startling the war horses in Xiliang, and then bursting into flames everywhere.
Soon the Xiliang military camp at the north gate, the Xiliang military camp at the east gate, and the Xiliang military camp at the west gate were all ablaze, and the firecrackers were crackling.
Before Du Sanbao left the city, he asked someone to say hello, and asked the gatekeeper to keep the door open for them. Because Du Sanbao had told Bai Qingyan to do business before, and insisted that he had a mission to go out of the city, the gatekeeper did not dare to ask. After the man was released, did he dare to delay reporting to Liu Pinggao?
Liu Pinggao, who was lying on the bed, was so shocked that he didn't even put on his clothes. He pulled his shoes and rushed out of the inner room: "Du Sanbao has already left?! You just let them out of the city like that?!"
"General, General Du has to go out of the city. He said that there is a mission, so we are not allowed to ask questions that we shouldn't ask! We can't stop it!" The gatekeeper said bitterly.
Liu Pinggao thought for a while and said, "Du Sanbao must have gone out of the city to attack the camp! This Du Sanbao dared to attack the camp with more than 20 people. It is simply audacious! Order the four gates of our soldiers to return to the Xiliang military camp. Be sure to open the city gate!"
"General, do you want to report to His Majesty?" the gatekeeper asked.
