"How is the defense and people's sentiment in the city?" Guan Sheng asked.

Tan Gao said: "The defense in the city is not very strict, but the city gate is slightly tighter when entering, but it is not particularly difficult to enter.

As for the people in the city, their lives were very bad. The people hated these thieves and were cursing them in private that they would not die well. I hope the imperial army could wipe them out sooner."

Guan Sheng thought for a moment, and said to Tan Gao, Hao Siwen, Xuan Zan: "The three of you each brought 500 soldiers to make up the people, and sneaked in from the east, south and west gates of Yun'an City, waiting for us to attack.

When you open the city gate from inside, you lead us into the city.”

"Abide by the order!"

Tan Gao, Hao Siwen and Xuan Zan each selected 500 elite soldiers, then changed into the clothes of the people and left.

In a blink of an eye, another six hours passed and the sky gradually became darker.

At this time, the soldiers who went to inquire about Wang Qing's whereabouts also came back and reported to Guan Sheng: "You report to General Guan, Wang Jin and the others are still more than 140 miles away from here. I guess they will be able to arrive in Yun'an City tomorrow morning."

Guan Sheng asked the soldiers to go down and rest, and said to Li Cheng and Wenda: "Tonight we will take down Yun'an City, and then dress up as an anti-army to welcome Wang Qing and the others into the city. He came to catch turtles in a jar, so that none of them could escape."

"General is good at making plans." Li Cheng, Wen Da, and Luan Tingyu said.

After two more hours of rest, the time came. Guan Sheng asked Li Cheng, Wen Da and Luan Tingyu to bring 10,000 troops to the east gate, west gate and south gate, while he led the remaining 18,000

A hundred people went to the North Gate.

Half an hour later, Guan Sheng led his troops to the north gate of Yun'an City, and immediately launched an attack on the north gate of Yun'an City.

The defenders at the north gate of Yun'an City had not received any news that the Song army was coming to attack the city before, so the Song army caught them off guard and the city tower was panicked.

"Don't panic, shoot me an arrow immediately, throw wood and stones, and drive the Song army back to me." A battalion-level anti-army officer shouted.

Under the reminder of this officer, the defenders on the city tower launched counterattack defense, and the bows, arrows, wood, and stones kept shooting down and throwing them down. The first wave of soldiers who were about to rush up to the city wall were forced to be beaten by them

Repel.

In the next ten minutes, the Song army launched four more sieges, but they were all repelled by the anti-army on the city wall.

However, although the attack on the north gate was not smooth, there were Tan Gao, Hao Siwen and Xuanzan as internal supporters on the east gate, west gate, and south gate, so they opened the city gate without much effort and rushed into the city.

On the north city, the anti-army on the city wall was fighting against the attack of the Song army outside the city. Suddenly, a shocking shout came from the city. Then someone shouted in surprise: "No, the Song army has entered the city, hurry up

Escape."

"What, the Song army has entered the city, how is this possible?"

The guards on the city wall were all shocked because the Song army was still attacking outside the city, so why did they suddenly enter the city?

Just as he was thinking, there were fierce fighting and shouts coming from the city gate. The anti-army troops on the city wall were shocked and thought, "Did the Song army really enter the city, how did they come in?"

At this time, the sound of rapid footsteps came from the steps of the city wall. The guards on the city wall turned their heads and saw a team of Song soldiers coming up from below to catch the entrance of the city wall stairs. One of the generals shouted: "The heavenly soldiers have entered the city."

The east gate, west gate, and south gate have been captured and captured. The soldiers guarding the city gate have surrendered. If you don’t want to die, put down your weapons and surrender quickly, otherwise you will be killed."

The general who was calling out was Luan Tingyu. He led his troops to break through the South Gate and forced the soldiers guarding the South Gate, and then immediately brought people to pick up Guan Sheng.

The guards on the city wall heard that the east gate, west gate and south gate had fallen, and the defenders had surrendered, and they no longer had the intention of resisting, and they put down their weapons and surrendered.

At this time, the Song army below had already opened the city gate. Guan Sheng immediately led the army from outside the city. Luan Tingyu came down from the city wall and greeted him: "General Guan, the east gate, the west gate, and the south gate have all been taken down by us. Now

Dear generals are encircling other anti-army soldiers in the city."

"Have you ever seen Yu Peng, the deputy general who defended the city?" Guan Sheng asked.

"Not yet, but now all four cities are controlled by us. If he cannot escape, he will be captured by us sooner or later." Luan Tingyu said.

Guan Sheng said: "Tell our soldiers not to break into the people's homes without authorization, and those who violate the order shall be killed."

"Yes." Luan Tingyu replied.

Guan Sheng led his troops to the guard general's mansion, and asked the people who guard general's mansion. He knew that they were all poor people, so he did not make things difficult for them and let them go.

About an hour later, all the anti-army troops in the city were captured, and even Yu Peng, the deputy general who hid in the home of the people, was arrested because of the people's reports.

Guan Sheng asked Yu Peng to take heed, and then persuaded the captured anti-army soldiers to surrender.

The anti-army soldiers originally thought they were dead, but they did not expect that the Song generals were so kind. Not only did they not kill them, but they gave them the opportunity to join the imperial army, but the conditions for joining the imperial army were so generous, so they were all willing to join the imperial army.

One night passed.

At noon the next day, the horse came back and told Guan Sheng that Wang Qing and the others were only forty miles away from Yun'an City, and that Wang Qing had sent a soldier to Yun'an City.

More than ten minutes later, the soldiers sent by Wang Qing appeared in front of Yun'an City Gate. Because the guards of Yun'an City Wall and the city gate are anti-army soldiers who just surrendered yesterday, they are still wearing anti-army uniforms, so this soldier does not have

An exception was found.

"I am the one sent by the king to pass on the orders, let me enter the city quickly." The soldier showed the token to show the soldiers guarding the city gate.

The soldiers guarding the city gate had already received Guan Sheng's order, so they did not stop him and let him enter the city.

The soldiers who were sent to the commander came to the guard general's mansion and said to the soldiers guarding the door: "I am sent by the king to send the commander. If you want to see the guard general, go and report it immediately."

The soldiers guarding the door went in for a while and came out to bring the messenger in. When they saw a general sitting in the main hall, they didn't know Yu Peng, so they regarded the general as Yu Peng.

"See the general, the messenger said with his fists and bowed.

The general sitting in the main hall was Guan Sheng. He looked at the messenger, nodded slightly and said, "What's wrong with sending you here?"

"The King's Royal Veteran is coming to Yun'an City. The King asks you to prepare for the welcome." said the messenger.

"How far is the king's imperial guard?" Guan Sheng asked.

"There are more than thirty miles left." said the messenger.

Guan Sheng said, "You go back and tell the king that I will be ready to welcome you."

"Yes, the villain said goodbye."

After the messenger left, Li Cheng, Wen Da, Luan Tingyu, Xuan Zan, Hao Siwen, and Tan Gao walked in from outside. Guan Sheng said, "Wang Qing is coming soon. All generals will be ready immediately, as long as he

When you enter the city, you will immediately close the four gates."

"Yes." The generals responded.

"General Guan, that Wang Qing knows Yu Peng. What if he doesn't see Yu Peng a while later and refuses to enter the city?" Li Cheng said.

Guan Sheng thought about this possibility and said, "General Li said it very well, what do you think we should do?"

Li Cheng said: "According to the humble opinion, in addition to ambushing the city, we should also ambush outside the city. We ordered 20,000 soldiers to lie on the outside of the city gate with bows and arrows. If Wang Qing does not enter the city, then

We immediately let the soldiers lying outside the city block their retreat, and then attack them with archers on the city walls, so that they can be wiped out in front of the city gate together by attacking inside and outside."

Guan Sheng nodded and said, "General Li's plan is very good, so I will implement it immediately."

"yes."

Afterwards, Li Cheng and Wenda each brought 10,000 people to ambush the hidden places on both sides of the city gate, while Luan Tingyu, Xuan Zan, Tan Gao and Hao Siwen led 30,000 people to ambush the streets in the city, as long as the king

When they enter the city, they can quickly launch a siege against them.

After everything was ready, Guan Sheng ordered all the people to go home and stay there. No one was allowed to go out before receiving the order, so as not to be injured by accident.

About two more hours later, Wang Qing and the others finally arrived.

Guan Sheng stood on the city tower, looked at Wang Qing's men coming toward this side, and said to the soldiers beside him: "Send the order, everyone is ready to follow my order."

"yes."

The soldiers immediately conveyed his orders, and all the defenders on the city wall were ready to attack.

When Wang Qing's army was about 500 meters away from the city gate, Guan Sheng ordered the soldiers to go out of the city to greet him. Then a team of nearly a thousand people went out of the city and stood on both sides of the city gate to welcome Wang Qing.

Wang Qing and Duan Sanniang rode at the front of the team on horseback. Zhao Feng, the Imperial Guardian, accompanied Wang Qing on the left with a knife. Behind them were the only remaining more than 10,000 defeated soldiers.

When they arrived at the city gate, the soldiers who came out to greet them knelt down and bowed together, "Meet the king."

Wang Qing nodded slightly and said, "Get up."

"Thank you, King."

After the soldiers stood up, Wang Qing looked at it and did not notice Yu Peng, and asked, "Why didn't you see General Yu Peng?"

A soldier said, "Report to the king, General Yu Peng was originally here to welcome the king together, but he didn't expect that his war horse was stung by a hornet just now, so he was frantically furious. General Yu fell down from his horse and was injured. Now General Yu is

The city is treated, so we did not welcome the king here. I hope the king will forgive him.”

"The war horse was stung by a hornet!"

Wang Qing frowned slightly, then looked at Duan Sanniang. Seeing that these soldiers were submissive to them, Duan Sanniang had no doubts and said, "In the midsummer, hornets often appear. In the past, we were in the army.

It’s not that there is no war horse stung by hornets, so there’s nothing strange.”

Hearing Duan Sanniang say this, Wang Qing's doubts disappeared and he said to the greeting soldiers: "Let's lead the way."

"yes."

Under the leadership of the welcome soldiers, Wang Qing, Duan Sanniang, Zhao Feng and others entered the city.

Wang Qing entered the city and saw that there was nothing around and no one could see it. He asked, "Why didn't there be people moving on the street?"

The welcoming soldier said, "In order to welcome the king, General Yu ordered all the people to avoid being shocked by the king, so that the streets would be so empty."

"So that's the case, it's hard for the general to think so thoughtfully." Wang Qing said.

He had just finished speaking, and suddenly there was a scream around him. Then thousands of arrows in hand appeared on the road ahead and Song Bing looked at them, following the windows of the houses on both sides. The doors were pushed open and the inside was full of use.
