Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 921 Return to camp

"Dad, wake up, wake up!" Gao Guiying's voice came to Zhang Shun's ears, but he only felt extremely sleepy, his body was as heavy as a stone, and he couldn't move for a long time.

I don’t know how long it took, but he managed to get up and asked with half-squinted eyes: "Guiying, what's the matter?"

"He Jin, Wukong and others are back!" Gao Guiying's cautious voice came.

"How is it?" Zhang Shun stretched out his hand to wipe his face and asked with a long yawn.

"If there is a winner or lose, let them tell you in person later!" Gao Guiying hesitated and responded.

"Oh, then get me a basin of water, and I'll tidy up before going to see them!" Just come back safely, and sending He Jin and others to sneak attack Xi'an was just an idea on his mind.

Due to the disparity in strength between the two sides, he did not expect them to achieve much results.

Not long after, after Zhang Shun washed his face, He Jin walked in with Wang Jinyi's support, looking exhausted.

Just as he was about to step forward to salute, Zhang Shun helped him up.

"Lao He, what's going on? Are you okay?" Zhang Shun was startled by him and asked quickly.

"It's okay, I'm just tired!" He Jin smiled bitterly upon hearing this.

"Are you injured?" Zhang Shun asked again.

"It pricked my hand and got a cut under my arm, but it doesn't matter!" He Jin couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.

He Jin then narrated his experience to Zhang Shun in detail, and then said with a wry smile: "I am really unwilling to do so. If we can hold Changle Gate, Xi'an City can be conquered in a day or night!"

It turned out that after You Zhaiyuan escaped, He Jin was able to join up with the rebels guarding the Arrow Tower and Zha Tower.

Wang Jinyi and Wukong, who came to support immediately, arrived with five or six hundred cavalry. The rebels arrived with more than 2,000 people. It was inevitable that He Jin had some ideas.

As a result, Zuo Guangxian, the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Province, felt bad when he just received the news that Changle Gate, the east gate of Xi'an, had not been captured by You Zhaiyuan, so he personally led his troops to fight for it.

This Zuo Guangxian was much more powerful than You Zhaiyuan and his son Zuo Xing. He led three to four thousand of Zuo's servants and elite officers and soldiers to form an array inside Changle Gate and looked up.

He Jin personally led more than a thousand people to occupy the city gate, while Wang Jinyi and Wukong led five or six hundred cavalry to wander outside the city, waiting for the officers and soldiers.

The city gate of Changle Gate has been demolished by the rebels, and the suspension bridge and the passage to the arrow tower are under the control of the rebels.

This is a typical defensive counterattack formation. He Jin intended to attract officers and soldiers to attack the city gate first, and then wait for the flaw to be exposed, and then use the cavalry to rush and defeat the officers and soldiers who came to attack the city gate.

"This thieves is quite capable, no wonder I waited for him to take advantage of him!" Zuo Guang looked at it for a long time and couldn't help but laugh.

"It's just that the devil is one foot taller than the Taoist, so what can this little trick do to me!"

Immediately, Zuo Guangxian, the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Province, transferred twenty or thirty artillery pieces from the Ordnance Bureau to suppress the rebels on the city, and then asked those who dared to die to wear double armor and go to the city.

As soon as the two sides fought for a moment, He Jin knew that he couldn't stand it anymore.

He had calculated countless things, but he failed to calculate how many red barbarian cannons there were in Xi'an City, as well as more than twenty prisoner-killing cannons, general cannons, and second general cannons.

But it turns out that what You Zhaiyuan left behind in the city was just an old-fashioned artillery piece, a bowl-mouth gun, a flange machine, etc. How could he be the opponent of the officers and soldiers?

Not to mention that the rebels had fought hard all night and were already exhausted. How could they withstand it?

With no choice, He Jin had to ask Wang Jinyi and Wukong to lead a cavalry raid to help him and others out of the city.

Seeing that the officers and soldiers had artillery in their hands, Wang Jinyi was not stupid. How could he rashly enter the city?

He then ordered his soldiers to select more than ten bad horses and drive them ahead.

Then he selected twenty or thirty strong men, all wearing double armor, and followed Wukong. He led other cavalry to wait for the opportunity.

Sure enough, as soon as the leading war horses entered the city, they were immediately beaten to pieces by the artillery of the officers and soldiers.

Before the smoke from the artillery fire had dissipated, Wukong shouted loudly and took the lead in killing the generals.

The officers and soldiers had already set up their spears and guns, and were ready.

Hearing the strange screams in the gunpowder smoke, he was immediately served with a crackle of pellets.

However, before the smoke cleared, a tall figure was seen rushing out. He was not afraid of the dense forest of guns and instead of retreating, he advanced.

Leading him to rush to the spear, he couldn't help but shout loudly, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which only made everyone tremble. However, the iron rod was swung out, and seven or eight spears were deflected with just one stroke.

I saw him fighting left and right, getting into the thicket of guns, and the officers and soldiers could not stab with their spears. He hit three or five spearmen one after another with his stick, and the officers and soldiers were suddenly in chaos.

And just when Wukong was showing off his bravery and no one could stop him, the cavalry behind him also followed up. Like a sharp sword, it plunged into the spear formation of the officers and soldiers. Suddenly, the spears were broken and people were turned over, leaving the formation in disarray.

"What's going on?" Zuo Guangxian, the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Province, was directing the siege, and his energy was not originally focused on this.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, the spear formation blocking the rebel cavalry was in chaos and was almost in danger of being defeated.

"Quick, where are the strange soldiers? Form a formation to stop them from entering the city!" Zuo Guangxian couldn't help but shouted quickly, trying to join the reserve team to stop Wukong and others.

But how did he know how powerful Wukong was? Generally speaking, those who dare to attack with death wear double armor, which is mostly cotton armor and chain armor, but Wukong wears a layer of cotton armor and a layer of piercing armor. How can ordinary swords, spears, fire and guns be broken?

I saw that no matter where Wukong killed, people would be on their backs and unable to resist.

He Jin saw it outside the city and quickly gathered his elite troops to attack the city.

Zuo Guangxian was unable to resist, so he laughed at himself and said: "The Art of War says: Don't stop when you return to the army, and you will be surrounded by enemies. Zuo has been using troops for many years, but he violated a military taboo!"

Then the passage was opened, allowing He Jin, Wukong and others to meet up and leave the city.

Finally, the officers and soldiers boarded the Changle Gate Tower again, only to see billowing smoke filling the sky and soaring flames dancing like dragons.

"Straight bitch!" Zuo Guangxian's face turned green with anger, and he even dug his nails into the palm of his hand, piercing it without even realizing it.

It turns out that although the city wall was made of rammed earth, most of its ancillary facilities were made of wood.

Before He Jin and others retreated, they had already set fire to the ropes of the suspension bridge, the watchtower, the city and other wooden structures.

"Hurry, go put out the fire!" Zuo Guangxian was about to cry but had no tears.

This time, although the officers and soldiers drove away the rebels, they recaptured the city gate.

But I am afraid that for a long time, this will be the biggest weakness of Xi'an's city defense. It will need to be guarded by heavy troops, which will involve a lot of strength and energy of the officers and soldiers.

"Okay!" Zhang Shun couldn't help but screamed after hearing He Jin's story.

"In the past, I heard that Zhang Wenyuan had the courage to overwhelm Xiaoyaojin, and Gan Xingba had the power to rob a camp with a hundred cavalry, but I didn't believe it. Now that the general looks at it, he knows that I am a frog at the bottom of the well!"

"As for Changlemen, we will take it sooner or later. Why do you regret it?"
