Son of Song Dynasty
Chapter 149 Stealing the City
Chapter 149 Stealing the City
Although Chen Yu was full of reluctance, he didn't dare to refuse, so he said cautiously to Pan Mei: "General Mingjian, if you enter the city at night, it is easy to cause chaos. Can you wait until after dawn before letting the soldiers of the Song Dynasty enter the city?" ?”
Pan Mei laughed out loud, and patted Chen Yu's shoulder affectionately: "When Kui Ye enters the city, the number of my soldiers in the city will be able to have a surprising effect."
At the same time, he was thinking in his heart: "What I want is for chaos to break out in the city, otherwise His Highness the County Prince will definitely not be satisfied!"
But it is inconvenient to say this clearly. Seeing that Chen Yu still had a bitter old face, Pan Mei was worried that the city would see his flaws when he called the door, so she lowered her voice and said to Chen Yu: "Liu Yu and other stubborn people, I, Song Dynasty, let the troubles remain and kill them without mercy, you can do whatever you want in the city, the general will not ask about the wealth and children that everyone has captured, and it is the most convenient to do this at night!"
Hearing that you can fish in troubled waters to get a big deal, Chen Yu was immediately refreshed, and smiled brightly: "The villain understands!"
After a while, Chen Yu galloped out of the mountain pass and headed towards Panyu City. The Song army general led fifty selected brave soldiers to act as Chen Yu's retinue, closely following his mount.
Pan Mei galloped up a low slope, reined in her mount, and looked towards the direction of Panyu City several miles away.
At this moment, the fourth watch is about to pass, and it is the darkest period before Limin. Although there is a bright and full moon hanging high in Zhongtian, the vision in the distance is still very blurred. The capital of the Southern Han Dynasty is right in front of you. The behemoth sleeping soundly in the wilderness could not hear any noise except the sound of the wind, and could only vaguely see the majestic outline of the city.
Pan Mei noticed that a lantern was lit every few steps above the city wall, like a string of bright pearl necklaces hung on the city. This was to prevent the enemy from stealing the city at night. With the dim light of the lantern, You can see many shadowy figures walking back and forth on the city wall, they must be soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty patrolling the city at night.
But at the same time, Pan Mei also quickly noticed an interesting detail. Perhaps because it was almost dawn, many lanterns on the city wall had been burnt out, but they had not been refueled, causing the surrounding This bright pearl necklace in the city reveals many dark gaps, and it is really an opportunity to steal the city.
Although there is no need to climb the city and sneak in at the moment, this is just a trivial matter, but this incident is enough to show that although the capital city of the Southern Han Dynasty received a warning early that the Song army was about to approach the city, it also made early preparations for city defense. The military level is obviously not very good, so that soldiers can't even do such trivial things well.
"It turns out that this is called 'laziness'!"
Pan Mei muttered to herself and shook her head.
At this moment, he thought of how many times Zhao Dezhao lost his temper because of some trivial matters in the barracks on the way to lead the army to the south. Lost tantrums; even soldiers defecated in the camp, he would get mad!
Pan Mei has been very puzzled before, why does His Royal Highness care so much about these trivial matters, can a weapon be used if it is rusted?Soldiers urinating indiscriminately is not only an obstacle to the view, but also does not prevent them from going into battle to kill the enemy, so why bother with a pile of shit?
But now he fully understands that the defenders of the Southern Han Dynasty couldn't even light a lantern. This kind of behavior is exactly the "laziness" that Zhao Dezhao often talks about!
Pan Mei is old in the army and has fought countless battles. She also fought against the Liao army under Zhou Shizong's command in the previous dynasty.In his impression, if the frontier army of the Song Dynasty made such negligence when they were in battle, they would almost be punished with batons, and in the Liao army, they would be beheaded. It is no wonder that the soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty were not from the Song Dynasty Opponents, the frontier army of the Song Dynasty would also retreat when the Liao army went out of the country to "strike the grass valley".
At this time, the cool southerly wind at night sent a cry from far away from Panyu City. There were lanterns shaking at the north gate of the city head, and it seemed that someone was talking to the city, but because they were too far away, they could not be heard clearly. content of the answer.
Pan Mei knew that it was Chen Yu calling the door.
He was not worried at all that Chen Yu would not be able to complete his mission. This self-castrated old man was both greedy for money and afraid of death. He was also quite cunning. He was also the Minister of the Ministry of War and was the chief officer in charge of military affairs. He was asked to do this. This kind of thing is perfect, and if this person can quietly leave the city when the city is already fortified, then there must be a way to enter again.
Pan Mei turned her head and gave an order to get the [-] cavalry soldiers hiding in the valley behind them ready to attack.
The cavalry soldiers got on their horses one after another. Occasionally, some war horses neighed, but they were quickly calmed down.
After a while, Pan Mei saw two torches at the North City Gate of Panyu shaking violently from side to side. This was the agreed signal from the Song Army squad that was going to steal the gate, which meant "the suspension bridge is opening."
Pan Mei held the horsewhip in her hand and raised it high, signaling to the soldiers behind her to get ready. Once the suspension bridge on the moat was lowered, it would not take a moment to put it away. After the city gate opened, only the fifty soldiers The Song army was able to hold the city gate for a while, and the remaining [-] cavalry troops galloped into the city, and the city was considered broken.
After a while, almost all the more than ten torches in front of the North City Gate of Panyu were extinguished suddenly. Pan Mei knew that this was because the city gate had already been opened, and the fifty Song Army warriors were fighting with the south guards guarding the city gate. The guards of the Han Dynasty fought for control of the city gate.
"Kill!" Pan Mei slammed her right hand down, and slapped the horse's buttocks fiercely. She took the lead and rushed to the forefront, followed by [-] cavalrymen, who rushed out of the col and ran straight towards the north city gate. out.
The sound of thunderous hooves came, waking up the sleepy Panyu City. Soldiers on watch at night beat gongs and drums, one after another, awakening more residents, and the city began to make noise.
The journey was only five miles away, and the galloping horses were done in just a moment. When Pan Mei led the cavalry to the suspension bridge, a few arrows fell from the city wall, but for everyone who was already wearing For the cavalry of the Song Army in Zhajia, it is obvious that they can't do much damage!
"too slow!"
Pan Mei yelled and rode his horse across the suspension bridge. He really thought that the defense of this city was very poor. The slow reaction of the soldiers after hearing the police was a clear proof. Presumably this was also what His Royal Highness called "laziness" habit?
It seems that God deliberately wanted to confirm Pan Mei's conjecture. After he led the cavalry forward into the city gate, he happened to meet a group of Southern Han infantry who came to reinforce him-this reaction speed was obviously too slow.
