In the middle of the night, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the army was running through the swamp.

The big raindrops hit me like grapes.

The coir raincoat and bamboo hat could no longer block the violent storm. My cheeks hurt and my body became cold. Only this non-stop running could keep my body warm.

Finally arrived.

From Changsha to Luoxian, captured Wulin, crossed the river to Xiakou, then took the land route to Huyang, attacked Longzhong at night, and headed straight here. It took eight days, spanning more than half of Jingzhou, and more than 1,500 miles, and finally arrived at the foot of Xiangyang City

.

With such wind and rain, there is no one on the city wall to guard the city wall.

The soldiers hid in the tower and lit the lights. It was not known whether they were taking a nap or playing around.

At the end of the road, Ji Shu poked his head out from the bushes. He panted heavily and felt that his legs were no longer his, but his eyes were shining brightly in the darkness.

"Jiang Qin and Wei Yan, you two will each lead 100 elite soldiers to climb up the city walls on the left and right sides, take down the towers, and open the city gates!"

"yes!"

"yes!"

It didn't take long for Jiang Qin and Wei Yan to lead two teams and sneak up. They walked to the unobstructed road, crossed the moat, and reached under the city wall.

At this time, anyone on the tower could see a dark shadow if they looked down, and a sneak attack might turn into a forceful attack against the clock.

But it was quiet in the night, and no one noticed anything unusual.

Very smooth.

Looking at Xiangyang in front of him, with his back against the thick city wall, Wei Yan was a little excited.

He had never fought such a battle. When he joined Liu Biao, he originally wanted to make a career in these troubled times. Who would have thought that he would be doing nothing all day long, being dragged into drinking and gambling by his colleagues, and they also had to flatter, give gifts, and build relationships.

This made Wei Yan so sick that he felt like his knife was already rusty.

Taking off the burdens such as bamboo hats and raincoats, the cold rain hits his face and blooms into flowers. This is the war he wants.

Take out the flying claw, swing it in a circle vigorously, and throw it out.

The flying claws rushed into the night sky, fell, and hooked on the wall.

I pulled it hard and it was very strong.

This was the first time for Wei Yan to see such a thing, but the soldiers of the Yulin Army seemed to be used to this thing called "Flying Claw".

A soldier took half a step forward and said to Wei Yan.

"General, I'll go first!"

Wei Yan was a little surprised. Was he worried that he didn't know how to use it?

Seeing that Jiang Qin had climbed up on the other side, Wei Yan didn't say anything, tightened the rope and was the first to climb up.

The heavy rain increased the concealment of the movement and covered up all sounds, but it also made the climb more difficult.

But this was nothing to Wei Yan. He walked forward on the slippery wall, tightly grasped the wall stack with one hand, and with a sudden force, he put his body on the city wall.

He looked around and saw no one. Wei Yan looked back and saw that the soldier who had just been talking to him had crawled closer, and he stretched out a hand.

The soldier also grabbed his hand, Wei Yan pulled hard, and another man climbed onto the wall of Xiangyang.

There were almost 20 people there. Wei Yan winked, pulled out the knife from his back and walked gently towards the tower. The soldiers followed him knowingly.

Jiang Qin on the opposite side also started to take action. The two teams staggered and surrounded the two gates of the tower one after the other.

Gently pushing the door open, some soldiers were napping and some were drinking.

When their eyes met, the Han army was obviously stunned for a moment.

But Wei Yan didn't have time to stay with him in a daze. He directly slashed at the nearest soldier with his knife, and blood spurted onto the wall, creating a horrifying picture.

The cold air rushed to the top of their heads, and the entire shoulders of the Han soldiers suddenly shook upward in fear, and they screamed.

"Enemy, enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Some Han soldiers who had been napping were a little confused after being woken up, but the Jiangdong Army, which was swarming in from behind, would not be polite to them.

Many Han soldiers looked at the sharp blade passing through their chests in astonishment, and fell asleep again with their eyes wide open.

This mournful cry was a little noisy in the heavy rain, but it still did not disturb the military camp below the city.

Bang!

Some soldiers opened the windows and rolled out. Outside were the Jiangdong Army who kept climbing up the city and came to kill them.

They were frozen, shouting desperately and hysterically.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Then the sharp blade was added, and the sound suddenly stopped.

But this desperate cry spread far and wide in the empty quiet night.

In the military camp under the city wall, a group of soldiers on night duty walked out of the camp gate and looked around in confusion.

"Hurry down and open the city gate!"

Wei Yan walked out of the tower with a bow and arrow, and when he opened the bow, he shot an arrow.

Whoosh!

The long arrow left the bowstring and seemed to disappear in an instant.

Sharp arrows pierce raindrops and travel through time and space.

In the heavy rain, white water splashes drew a trail in the sky.

bite!

The arrow pierced the armor, tore flesh and blood, and was nailed to the ground.

Two corpses fell down in response.

Wei Yan turned around and saw that the bowstring in Jiang Qin's hand was still trembling.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

The group of soldiers on night duty woke up as if from a dream, looking at the two fallen corpses and the longing figures on the city top. It was as if Yama's chain had been hung around their necks, and they did not dare to step forward to fight.

He turned around and ran towards the military camp.

"Jiangdong's army is coming to the city!"

"Jiangdong's army is coming to the city!"

Dozens of people shouted and woke up the city, and the quiet military camp turned into a noisy vegetable market in an instant.

Groups of Han troops fought their way out of the military camp and headed straight for the city gate.

Unfortunately it's too late.

squeak~~

The city gate burst open.

When Ji Shu started fighting on the city tower, he ordered the remaining soldiers to rush to the city gate. They had already been waiting outside the city gate for a long time.

Jiangdong's army swarmed in.

There are only 3,000 defenders in Xiangyang, and there are only 500 people at each city gate. Dozens of people have been lost on the city tower before. How can the remaining 400 people resist the wolf-like tigers of Jiangdong's army?
