Chapter 432 Assassination
The Turk Khan said, "It's better to be careful. If you make a mistake, you will have one more chance of winning. Get ready to attack the city!"
Turan Khan said, "General Ashina, you led 50 siege instruments and 50,000 elite soldiers, filled the moat with toad carts, and attacked the city wall with stone carts. After the wall was damaged, you set up a ladder car to attack the city. The order must not be wrong."
Then picked up another order arrow: "Sigu and Siler, you two lead 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry around the city to guard the stone throwers and ladder trucks to guard against the other side's cavalry assault."
"Order!" The two said in unison.
.........
"Kill!" A large number of Turkic soldiers waved weapons and rushed to Chang'an City. At the same time, the two sides threw "shock thunder" with a trebure, and the sound of thunderous debris collapsed. Even if the wall of Chang'an City was extremely hard, it still began to show traces of fragmentation, like peeling onions, stripping off the solid wall layer by layer, revealing a wide cracks. The crack also slowly cracked in the violent shock.
The two sides fought into a group, and the frequent fighting of the blades sounded. At first glance, it sounded like a continuous loud noise. Xu Zhiyuan swept away according to the surging of Turkic soldiers. Wherever the blade went, the head, remnants, broken meat, broken knives and broken spears flew all over the air, and blood seemed to be fireworks constantly surging up and splashing everywhere.
At this moment of short soldiers, the Black Armor Army defeated the morale of the invasion of the enemy in an instant. The siege commandos, which were several times larger than the defenders, were completely shocked by the bloody killing. The momentum that was like a broken bamboo dissipated in front of the city wall, and the unstoppable iron flow appeared to meet the iron embankment, changing from ** Wandering forward.
At this time, Xiao Ran led hundreds of golden eagles to cover the sky and the sun again. According to past experience, as long as Xiao Ran takes action, it will not be too far from victory, and the morale of the Turkic army also rises in an instant. Tired, he rushed to Chang'an City with fierce arrow feathers. Countless Turkic soldiers splashed blood and fell to the ground before they reached the city wall. Whether it is a rolling stone log or a "earthquake thunder" that falls at any time can take the lives of a group of people. The battlefield turned into a sea of fire in an instant.
Jinguangmen and Yanpingmen were once boarded by Turkic soldiers, but they were repulsed by the stubborn resistance of Daxia generals. It has long been calculated that the city gate can't be low-end for too long. Xia Shuangtian directly ordered to block the gate with a boulder. In this way, even if the gate is broken, it is still a pile of "back walls". Xiao Ran stood on the back of the Dapeng God Bird and looked down at the fireworks. Compared with the whole Chang'an City, these people are really too small.
Chang'an City is known as the strongest city in the Central Plains, and the fortifications are idle. Under the dispatch of Xia Shuangtian, 13 gates supported each other. Xiao Ran still failed to break any of the four batches of "earthly thunder". From dawn to dark, several waves of offensives were not stopped, and the casualties on both sides were not small. Perhaps both sides were tired, and the Turkic army slowly retreated.
In the king's tent, Turkic Khan also has a rare gloomy face. In just one day, tens of thousands of people were killed and injured, and blood flowed into rivers. This kind of consumption of any army can't bear it. They finally realized the strength of Chang'an City.
"This kind of consumption, even if we use a strong attack into Chang'an City, at least half of the casualties!" The general said with a gloomy face.
"Xia Shuangtian is worthy of guarding the border for decades, and his experience is unmatched by ordinary people."
“...”
Everyone expresses their own opinions, and few people can get to the point. Does it have to be consumed like this?
The Turkic Khan said, "Who has a way to break through Chang'an City? He will break through Chang'an every day and remember the first achievement." This is an opportunity to make great achievements. Anyone can hold it until the establishment of the new dynasty is a proud capital. However, everyone knows that it is by no means easy to get. If it is a strange trick, there is no doubt that it is Xiao Ran. Everyone followed him all the way to seize the city and plunder the land, and endless tricks made everyone happy. At this moment, he was calm and looked at Xiao Ran.
"Maybe there is a way to capture Chang'an at the least cost!" Xiao Ran was silent for a long time. As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked. The smallest price" is what the Turkic generals hope to see, and breaking Chang'an is also a decisive step.
The Turk Khan said, "What's the method? It seems that Commander Xiao has concerns?"
"shoot the horse first, and capture the thief first!"
Xue Ling was shocked and said, "Second brother, do you want to sneak into Chang'an City to assassinate Xia Shuangtian?"
Chang'an City gradually entered the cage, with tens of thousands of defenders. Breaking in alone is tantamount to hitting stones with eggs. This crazy idea is even frightened when the fierce Turkic general thinks about it. Isn't it similar to dying? If it is proposed by others, he may be mocked immediately, but he is Xiao Ran, turning countless impossible and mysterious characters. Not to mention the future, at least the unprecedented "air force", which is incomparable to anyone. When he fought, both the Turkic Khan and the big summer could only look up at him.
The Turkic Khan was silent for a moment and said, "Xiao Ran, tell me your detailed plan."
Xiao Ran said, "No matter how tight the city is, it is impossible to defend the sky. As long as there are great roc birds and hundreds of golden eagles, you can build a strange soldier and launch a raid. Khan needs to select more than 100 warriors with high martial arts in the army and sneak into Chang'an City with me to assassinate Xia Shuangtian!"
This is a gamble, and Xiao Ran is betting his life. The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, and he can't estimate the specific success rate. Hundreds of selected people will leave a suicide note before they leave. This is a nine-death mission, and these people will be remembered no matter what the result is. Everyone can't figure out why Xiao Ran proposed such an extreme method. Is a Han man so desperate for traitor just to be prosperous?
Except for the Turkic Khan and Xue Ling, no one knows Xiao Ran's idea: "He wants to minimize casualties and reduce conflicts. The longer the war is, the more casualties will be brought.
"It is said that there are thousands of rooms in the palace, and it is too late to find time for one room. How does General Xiao find the whereabouts of Xia Shuangtian?
"You don't have to worry about this. It's a free trick."
Another prince said, "I'm not sure how can I let the Turkic warriors die."
Xiao Ran knew that this person was jealous of Xue Ling's military achievements and was afraid that Xiao Ran would succeed again this time. He sneered and said, "I once went to the palace to assassinate the fourth prince of the Tang Emperor!" As soon as this statement came out, the prince was no longer controversial. Some people are also chilled. They are really cruel people. Even the assassination of the commander-in-chief is familiar.
"Of course, such infiltration is likely to be discovered, so only the defenders have no time to take care of him under the cover of the night and the army may win. When the soldiers rest for a few hours to refresh their spirits, they will do it in the quiet night as soon as possible. Turkic Khan nodded slowly. Let's try this method for the time being. At night, many exhausted soldiers temporarily fell asleep on the cold wall. The untidy clothes and bare breasts are breathing evenly, as if to eliminate the fatigue of the day.
