Chapter 32 The Beginning of Breaking the City

The east gate of Chang'an City.

Zhang Ji was wearing armor and lived on the east gate tower, carrying swords on both sides, with an expression of extreme tension. Zhang Xiu was stationed in front of the city gate, standing solemnly waiting like a door god.

"Reported to the letter from the lord, General Xu Rong, the army is ready. Just wait for the imperial army to enter the city and cooperate inside and outside to take down Guo Si and Li Jue in one fell swoop."

At this time, the young general who had previously reported to Xu Rong came back and reported.

“That’s good.”

Hearing the sound, Zhang Ji also felt a little relieved. He was afraid that Xu Rong would suddenly refuse to agree. Unfortunately, he had no bad intentions and could not have thought that he had been used by Xu Rong.

In the Dongmen City, countless soldiers, archers, and infantry were already ambushed in the streets and alleys. Xu Rong, Li Jue and Guo Si were staying in a secret place, waiting for the imperial army to enter the city, and that was the time for them to take action.

"Calling the time, the imperial army should be coming." Xu Rong raised his head and said extremely calmly.

"This battle is related to our life and death. We can only win, not lose." Guo Si said with firmness in his eyes.

"Don't worry."

"I have cleared all the people in Dongcheng. The radius is full of our army, ambush, and rocket oil. As long as the imperial army comes in, it will be like a dead valley entrance, and it will be in a dilemma." Li Jie sneered coldly, looking very cruel.

And at this moment.

Outside the East Gate City.

The earth has begun to shake violently, and you can even clearly hear the sound of war horses stepping on the ground and the sound of countless army stepping on the wind.

"It's finally here."

Hearing the sound of the army advancing, Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's nervous mood also relaxed a little.

The imperial army has arrived, and the next step is to cooperate with the inside and outside to take Chang'an.

"Guo Si, Li Jue's head, I must give it to the emperor." Zhang Xiu held the silver spear in his hand tightly, full of fighting spirit.

"Report to the general, the imperial army is less than two miles away from our east city gate." A scout came to the city and reported loudly.

"I will pass on the order to open the city gate and welcome the imperial army into the city." Zhang Ji ordered loudly.

Suddenly.

"promise."

The soldiers below immediately took the order and opened the city gate.

Guo Si and the other two were also browsing and looking extremely excited at this moment.

"It's true that the little emperor was fooled," Xu Rong laughed proudly.

"If the imperial army can be destroyed this time, General Xu will be the first contribution." Li Jue bowed and smiled.

"The city gate has been opened, and the imperial army is about to enter the city. I will order the entire army to prepare." Guo Si also ordered excitedly.

The three of them beat their fists and feet, waiting for the army to enter the city, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop.

"The army is moving slowly."

When Lu Bu's army was less than a thousand meters away from the east gate of Chang'an City, Lu Bu suddenly ordered.

"promise."

Many generals took the order and conveyed the order.

The army that was originally running fast also suspended its marching speed at this time and became extremely busy.

It was originally only took dozens of breaths to get close to the city a hundred meters, but with the slow marching of deliberate marches, the time without a stick of incense would not come at all.

"Why did the imperial army slow down?" Zhang Xiu stood in front of the city and looked at the slow army in front of the city in confusion.

Guo Si and the other two who set up an ambush in the city were also very anxious.

"What's going on? Why has the imperial army not entered the city yet?" Guo Si asked at a young general.

"Reporting to the lord, the last general doesn't know what happened, but the imperial army suddenly slowed down a thousand meters in front of the city." The young general said respectfully.

"Did the little emperor find out something?" Guo Si asked uneasy.

"Impossible. The spy just came to report that the army outside the city was indeed more than 100,000, which was the entire court army, so I must be fooled." Xu Rong said with certainty.

"Then why did they slow down the marching speed?" Guo Si said in surprise.

"It should be about to enter the city, so I'm afraid it will affect the order of the marching." Xu Rong thought of a far-fetched reason, but after saying this, a sense of uneasiness also emerged in his heart.

"Since that's the case, then keep waiting, they will come in sooner or later." Now there is no way out, and Guo Si can only bite the bullet and go on.

On the other side, the main gate of Chang'an.

Guo Si and the others thought they were smart and thought that the plan had been successful. They drew 45,000 troops that were originally stationed at the main gate to the east gate, leaving only 5,000 people to guard the east gate.

Step... Step.

Suddenly, the main gate of Chang'an began to vibrate. Although it was a little slight and not very strong, it was also heard by the garrison on the city tower.

"Did you hear any sound?" Soldier Armor asked, looking at the people beside him.

"No?" Soldier Yi replied in surprise, a little confused.

"I heard the sound of horse hooves, as if they were coming for us?" Soldier Ar said seriously, while looking towards the city.

"It's impossible. Today, the lord transferred a large number of people away. Obviously, the enemy won't attack the city because he got the intelligence." Soldier B said with certainty.

But the words had just fallen.

Step, step.

As soon as it happened, the sound of stomping the ground suddenly became stronger, and the entire city tower was trembling, as if the sky was about to collapse and the earth was sinking.

"The army...is the army of the court."

"The emperor is here to attack the city..."

At this time.

The soldier pointed his armor at the front of the city and shouted in horror.

Thousands of soldiers on the entire city tower stood up suddenly, looking in horror.

Thousands of meters away from the city, the flags were connected to the sky. Under the flags, a black mass formed a group of hundreds of military formations and came towards Chang'an City. The front was tens of thousands of cavalry, and then the infantry and archers all pressed towards the city.

And right in front of the surging impact, a mighty man wearing a dragon robe and a crown was particularly conspicuous. It was the emperor of the Han Dynasty and the heaven of tens of millions of people.

"General, the emperor has attacked the city, what should we do?"

The fierce impact of the 100,000 troops shocked the entire Chang'an City.

"Don't panic, guard the city tower, I'll send someone to report to the lord." Li Su said in panic and immediately sent someone to tell Guo Si.
