The end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 20 Attack on Zhao Jiabao 3

It was already four quarters when I arrived at Zhaojiabao, and it was already dark. Originally, they could have arrived at Zhaojiabao quickly, but in order to implement the plan to enter the castle in the dark, it took a lot of time to walk and stop on the road.

At this time, Liu Xia's army was still five miles away from Zhaojiabao, and Liu Xia ordered to stop. It's so dark that even if they get closer, the casual families on the Zhaojiabao fortress will not notice it.

There are lights on the fortress, so Liu Xia and others can easily see the situation on the fortress, while the people on Zhaojiabao can't see them. The wall of Zhaojiabao is more than three feet high. The periphery of the wall is a trench with sharp wooden cones inserted in it. If it falls into it, it will definitely die tragically. Zhaojiabao is not very big, so the whole Zhaojiabao has only one gate and a small door.

The door of Zhao Jiabao has been closed at this time, and the servants who can move into Zhao Jiabao have returned to their own rooms at this time, except for Zhao Lang. It is also for safety to close the door when it is dark. After all, the world is not peaceful.

In Zhao Jiabao, Zhao Yan did not worry about anything because his third son did not come back, because Zhao Lang often came back very late, and he took more than a dozen family with him when Zhao Lang left. In Zhao Yan's opinion, this was enough to make his third son very safe. He is old now.

The eldest son is a lame and physically disabled. The second son is blind, let alone the family. Only the third son, Zhao Lang, is handsome, and there is no problem all over his body. He can inherit the family property.

Although Zhao Lang is not learning and incompetent, he bullies men and women, and does all kinds of evil. Every time he needs to wipe Zhao Lang's buttocks, but he only has such a complete child that he can only spoil him.

Zhao Yan picked up a cup of hot tea that was still smoking, took a sip, and quickly spit it out. The little girl next to him quickly came over and picked up the handkerchief to wipe Zhao Yan's mouth. Zhao Yan vomited, and a mouthful of blood appeared directly on the handkerchief. Zhao Yan waved his hand to the little girl and motioned her to leave. Then he put the blood-stained handkerchief away.

Liu Xia glanced at Chen Liu. Chen Liu nodded, and then led the carriage slowly to Zhao Jiabao. At the same time, he was accompanied by three other dressed servants and ten armed ding men.

Liu Xia ordered that after Chen Liu opened the gate and Niu Chao Ma Peng killed those family members, he took the Guards and Hu Ben Camp and Wolf Xiao Camp into the city. A scout brigade blocked the small door of Zhaojiabao and must not let one person run away. The rest of the logistics battalion and lion battalion are left behind, protecting the logistics force on the one hand and responding on the other. When Liu Xia occupied Zhao Jiabao, the Lion Battalion and the Logistics Battalion then entered the city to carry things.

According to Liu Xia's request, Ma Peng went to the city tower to kill the men, and then lit the torch. Liu Xia knew that they had finished it and could go in.

Now everyone in Liu Xia's army is leading a horse and then riding one. Now Liu Xia asks the extra horses in the hands of the Wolf Xiao Camp of the Tiger Camp to hand over to the left-behind logistics battalion and the lion camp first, prepare weapons and go out at any time. In addition, the people of the scout brigade went out in advance to ambush not far from the back door of Zhaojiabao.

......

Chen Liu slowly led the horses forward, and the five miles soon finished. At this time, they immediately approached the gate of Zhaojiabao. Of course, they also attracted the attention of those men on the tower. At this time, there were a total of ten men standing guard, six of whom were already sleeping there, and two were standing dizzy, only two looking at the outside carefully.

"Stop, who are you? This is Zhao Jiabao. Don't come here again, or you will shoot arrows." Ding Jia, who was on the tower, held the iron tire bow that he couldn't open in his hand with a fierce face, and looked at Chen Liu and his party, who were marching below. It's just that the lights on the tower are really not big, so it's difficult for them to see who is from below clearly, and they can only vaguely see the people below.

Chen Liu put down the rope of the carriage, so he stepped forward and said to the man on the gate, "Dog, dog, it's me, Xiaoliu, our third young master is back, open the door!"

Chen Liu did go out with their third young master today, and there was also a carriage in the team. Although he couldn't see what it looked like, it should not be wrong to have Chen Liu. So the man called the dog did not doubt anything, so he said to Chen Liu below, "The third young master is back. I'll go down and open the door for the young master." After saying that, the dog hurried down.

Chen Liu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The first pass finally passed, and then the suspension bridge began to slowly put down on the ground. After the suspension bridge was put away, the dog slowly opened the door, and then hurriedly showed a flattering face and ran to the carriage to make Zhao Lang remember himself, and then gave Zhao Lang is an entourage, so that he can be domighty and have many benefits.

With this in mind, the dog quickly ran to the carriage, but he hasn't entered the city yet. Chen Liu can't let the dog know that there is no young master in it.

So Chen Liu hurriedly ran forward to stop the dog, and then said anxiously, "Dog, you can't go there. The young master is sleeping now. The young master can't be disturbed when he sleeps, otherwise he will kill you!"

The dog looked at Chen Liu's anxious look, believed it was true, and stopped going, and secretly said bad luck in his heart. After all, the dog did not take care of Zhao Lang, so he didn't know what Zhao Lang was used to, so when he heard Chen Liu say so, he believed it.

Whether what Chen Liu said is true or not, if it's false, if he goes to disturb you, it's nothing. If Chen Liu is true, it's not worth being cut by the young master for this small profit! So the unhappy dog followed Chen Liu into the city depressedly.

When he was about to get to the city, the lights lit up. The dog looked at a man next to him and said doubtfully, "Brother, why haven't I seen you? New here?" The asked family took a look at Chen Liu. Chen Liu used a fierce color. The family took out a dagger from nowhere and touched the dog's neck without making a sound.

Putting the dog's body aside, Ma Peng and Niu Chao came out of the carriage, and then walked up the tower under the leadership of Chen Liu. At this time, there was also an open eye on the tower. Hearing the footsteps of many people, the others also woke up. The person who saw was Chen Liu, one of the general leaders He asked Chen Liu impatiently, "Xiao Liu, what are you doing up here? Where's the dog?"

Chen Liu didn't say anything. The soldiers behind him, who pretended to be a family member, suddenly came forward and stabbed the boss, and directly turned to death.

Everyone else also reacted and suddenly panicked, but how could the soldiers who had been prepared for a long time give them a chance to escape? Although some of them wanted to shout, they were all solved by the quick action of Ma Peng and Niu Chao.

Within less than half a cup of tea, these ten family men turned into corpses. Although these people are domesticated, this does not mean that they do not deserve to die. These domesticated families do not have many good ones. It is also common to bully men and women, and no one can be forgiven.

Ma Peng Niu Chao lit a fire on the tower to inform Liu Xia that he could enter the city, and then brought more than a dozen soldiers. Chen Liu led the way to the main people's home in the castle to solve part of it first.

Ma Peng and Niu Chao are both brave but resourceless people, and Chen Liu can just make up for their shortcomings. The two of them were also from poor families, so after Chen Liu talked about their experience, they looked at Chen Liu without any hostility, but were a little close.

Ma Peng tried his best to lower his voice and said to Chen Liu, "Which one shall we go to first now? This Zhao family castle is really not small. There are hundreds of families living in it. The Zhao family is really rich! It seems that we can definitely make a fortune."

Chen Liu thought for a moment and then whispered, "Two generals, we don't have the strength to attack the Zhao family's mansion now. There are a lot of families in it, so let's go to some of the Zhao family that have committed too much crimes first. These Zhao family families do not live in the Zhao family's mansion, and there is no family guard it, so So we can kill it without much effort."

Wang Shitou was next to Liu Xia, staring at Zhao Jiabao with his eyes open all the time. Suddenly, he shouted to Liu Xia happily, "General, general, look, there is fire. The old horse went in, and the old horse went in."

Liu Xia quickly looked up and looked there. As expected, the flame was very big, so she put down the immediate Bian Yujing. In this attack, Liu Xia was not going to take Bian Yujing with her. After all, she was a girl, and it was better to stay in the logistics team. Bian Yujing also obediently listened to Liu Xia's words and walked aside.

Liu Xia said to the 700 brothers in Hu Ben Camp and Lang Xiao Camp, "Now our vanguard has solved the obstacles. Money and food are in front. Brothers, go!"

Liu Xia rushed up in the lead, and the other soldiers also followed Zhao Jiabao, and the sound of horses' hoofs knocked on the sleeping night.

Bian Yujing looked worriedly at Liu Xia, who was constantly moving away, and his eyes sparkled with all kinds of complex emotions...

Soon Liu Xia and others came to Zhaojiabao, and the suspension bridge had been placed, so Liu Xia and others easily broke through the trench defense of Zhaojiabao and directly entered Zhaojiabao.

Liu Xia took a brigade of the Guards and a brigade of Hu Ben Camp to the Zhao family's mansion. Other people began to disperse into Zhao Jiabao to find supplies. Of course, this could not be swallowed and monitored each other. Liu Xia's military order was entangled in their ears at all times.

The Zhao family's mansion is in the center of Zhaojiabao, which is very luxurious. At this time, it is still brightly lit. They don't know that Zhaojiabao has been broken at this time...
