Although Dunhuang garrison Roger deliberately left Yibula, he did not restrict Yibula's freedom. So Liu Xian and Song Dayan asked Yibula to wander around the city on the excuse and did not return to his residence until it was dark.

After dinner, Song Dayan and Liu Xian gathered together to pour it secretly. Liu Xian brows were locked and whispered: "Brother Song, the situation is very difficult. The Yarkand people are very alert. Most of our brothers are not allowed to enter the city. It is too difficult for us to take down the city gate alone. Moreover, the bastard Qiu Luan left twenty cannons for the Yarkand people and nearly two thousand muskets. If we attacked for a strong force, our army would suffer great casualties."

Song Dayan said expressionlessly: "It's not just the heavy casualties, but the fortifications in Dunhuang City are very tight. With the little force of the Shenji Camp, even if it's all destroyed, it's probably impossible to break the city."

Liu Xian couldn't help but feel numb and said in a deep voice: "What should I do now? Should I give up the plan to return the same way?"

"Now we can only wait for the opportunity. The Dunhuang guard Roger seemed to be willing to leave Yibula, but he would meet him sooner or later. He would definitely let the brothers outside the city enter the city. We will touch the city gate at night." Song said calmly.

Liu Xian said helplessly: "It seems that this is the only way to go now. However, the night is long and dreams are too long. We don't know how long Roger will take Yibla. At this moment, the general may have taken down Yangguan. The longer the time, the greater the possibility of the news leaking, so we can't afford it!"

Song Dayan suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind and he whispered: "Xiao Liu, I have a way, but I have to take a big risk. Can you see if it's feasible?"

Liu Xian hurriedly said, "Let me tell me!"

Song Dayan glanced left and right before he came to Liu Xian's ear and whispered: "There is a warehouse in the city that specializes in storing firearms and ammunition. When Guo Heizi and I visited Dunhuang, I followed Yibla on the street during the day. I paid special attention and found that there were many Yerkand soldiers guarding the building. It seemed that after the Yerkand people occupied Dunhuang, they did not remove the ammunition in the warehouse."

Liu Xian's eyes lit up, and he had already vaguely guessed what Song Dayan was going to do.

Sure enough, Song Dayan continued: "Late tomorrow night, I will find a way to touch the warehouse and set a fire to attract the attention of the Yerkand people in the city. You took the opportunity to bring a few brothers to touch the city gate, and then put the brothers outside the city in. But this is quite dangerous. If you don't do it well, you will give your life. Do you dare?"

Liu Xian seemed to have been insulted and said proudly: "Why don't you dare? Your head is just a big scar. Eighteen years later, I am a hero. I, Liu Xian, have been through life and death. Brother Song rarely looks down on others."

Song Dayan praised and said, "Okay, that's it. I'll blow up the ammunition in the warehouse tomorrow night. Without the ammunition, the muskets and cannons of the Yarkand people will become decorations."

"It is best not to ignite ammunition directly when setting fires. Leave a fuse to delay for five minutes. When the Yarkand people gather to put out the fire...!" Liu Xian suddenly opened his five fingers with his left hand and silently said the word "boom" with his mouth.

Song Dayan smiled and said, "You little boy is not old, but he is so sinister, you must do it!"

Liu Xian grinned and said, "The martial arts lecturer said that kindness to the enemy is the greatest cruelty to himself. In the words of our ancestors, this is called "deception without getting tired of war."

Song Dayan gave a thumbs up again. The handsome man's eyes looked at people were indeed very poisonous. Liu Xian is a talented man, brave and resourceful, and it is rare that he is not restricted. If his life is strong enough, his future will be limitless.

As Song Dayan expected, Liu Xian held the highest position in history as the governor of the Five Army Governor's Office, and also gave birth to a son named Liu Jing, who was known as the most powerful general in the late Ming Dynasty.

Next, the two of them chatted closely about the details of tomorrow's action, and then they went to bed.

The next morning, Dunhuang garrison Roger still did not meet Yibla. Liu Xian and Song Dayan encouraged Yibla to stroll on the street, and even ran to the city on the excuse to observe the troops at the city and set up defenses. Finally, Liu Xian asked Yibla to use the excuse to go out of the city to visit the five hundred brothers stationed outside the city.

Originally, the Yarkand officer guarding the city gate did not allow people to leave the city, but he couldn't stand Yibla's big fuss and finally agreed. He probably was worried that he would alarm the ten thousand men's captain Roger. After all, Yibla was also a "disciple guest"

So, under the cover of Yibla, Liu Xian and Song Dayan successfully sent the intelligence and action plan out of the city.

...

At noon in Yangguan, Xu Jinzheng summoned the generals to discuss matters in the tent of the commander. He saw a layout diagram of Dunhuang City on the table. Everyone discussed how to attack Dunhuang City with words.

As the saying goes, everything is planned, and if it is not planned, it will be abandoned. Xu Jin seems to be at will when he uses troops, but in fact, every decision has been carefully considered. Just like this surprise attack on Dunhuang, he began to prepare three plans.

The first is to use Yibla to open the Dunhuang city gate from the inside, and this solution is undoubtedly the least expensive.

The second type is to attack and forcibly break through Dunhuang City when the Inspector fails.

The third type is to turn around the original path, but this means that the plan for this thousand-mile raid has completely failed.

At this time, Xu Jin and the generals were discussing Plan 2 - a strong attack on Dunhuang City. However, after some discussion, both Xu Jin and the generals were in a heavy mood, because according to the deduction results, even if it was a sudden attack, the Shenji Camp might only win the Dunhuang City by only 60%, and it was due to heavy casualties.

"Is that boy Liu Xian okay? If the plan fails, then this battle will be really bad." Qi Jingtong said worriedly.

Wang Liner nodded and said with a serious expression: "According to the scouts, the situation is a bit bad. Most of Yibula and Xiao Liu's people were blocked outside the city. In addition, Yibula himself, only eleven people were allowed to enter the city."

Xu Jin stared at the map with sword eyebrows and deep locks. At this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from outside. Soon, a scout rushed in quickly, landed on one knee, and put on a piece of paper with both hands: "Report to the Grandmaster, this is the latest news sent by Liu Baihu."

Xu Jin quickly took the paper and opened it. His eyes lit up, but his eyebrows quickly frowned again. Liu Xian and Song Dayan's plan was feasible, but it was too risky, and the probability of success was probably not high.

"Master General, what did that boy Liu Xian say?" Qi Jingtong asked with his head protruding.

Xu Jin handed over the paper and said, "You can take a look too!"

The generals hurriedly gathered together to read it. Before they finished reading it, someone couldn't help but curse. Who did they scold? Of course, they scolded Qiu Luan, the pig teammate, and actually gave the Yarkand people twenty cannons and two thousand muskets.

"Master, my subordinates think that Xiao Liu and Big Eye's plan is feasible. Even if it fails in the end, blowing up the enemy's firearms and ammunition will be of great benefit to our siege, that is... Xiao Liu and the others are too dangerous!" Wang Liner said.

Qi Jingtong curled his lips and said, "The battle between men and women, and birds are facing the sky. I'm afraid of being afraid. What we do is just a job that doesn't have to be on the belt. If our lives are hard enough, the King of Hell will have to hide. I see that Liu Xian and Big Eyes are both hard-eared and cannot die!"

As the saying goes, Ci is not in charge of the army. Xu Jin is naturally not the kind of indecisive person. He made the decision at the moment, but he made some arrangements. Liu Xian is a talented man. It would be a pity if he was in Dunhuang. I hope these arrangements can improve his survival rate.

On the fifth day of the third month of the seventh year of Jiajing, on a sunny night, a crescent moon hangs slanted, and the moonlight is as hazy as a gauze. Although it is already spring in March, the night here in Dunhuang is still very cold. The deeper the night, the lower the temperature.

Just about a hundred meters away from the south gate of Dunhuang City, dozens of bonfires were burning. The five hundred "remnants" brought by Yibla were making fires to keep warm. The Yarkand defenders on the city had long been accustomed to the existence of these people, so they didn't care much about their actions. However, people of these "remnants" stood up every now and ran to the distance to pee. As they scattered, they even had about two hundred more people.

The difference between five hundred and seven hundred was not very big. In addition, under the cover of night, the Yarkand defenders on the city were completely unaware of anything.

The two hundred extra people are naturally the strong soldiers of the Shenji Camp, and they are all good at kung fu, flexible body skills, and good at climbing. They are led by Xie Erjian, the top master.

At this moment, Xie Erjian was lying lazily beside the campfire, holding a hay in his mouth and closing his eyes to rest. The brothers under his command naturally knew the boss's style very well, so no one disturbed him. They each put their hands in their sleeves to set fire and silently restored their energy.

Time passed by minute by minute. Xie Erjian finally opened his eyes, took out the pocket watch from his arms and opened the lid and glanced at it. Jianqiao couldn't help but frowned, because it was already 1:30 in the morning, and there was no movement in the city. Could it be that something happened?

"Wait a little longer!" Xie Erjian's intuition told him that Liu Xian would not lose his links, so he stopped.

After half an hour, the hour hand of the pocket watch was already pointing at three o'clock in the morning. Xie Erjian closed the pocket watch and stood up. He couldn't wait any longer. It seemed that the plan had failed and he was going to use the second plan.

When the soldiers of Shenji Camp saw Xie Erjian standing up, they were immediately shocked. They bent their waists and legs, stared at the city walls in the distance, like a group of dark night tigers and wolves preparing to hunt.

However, at this moment, several fires suddenly emerged in the city, and there were still vague shouts. The defenders on the city turned around and looked into the city.

Xie Erjian's eyes flashed, and he quickly made a gesture. The brave soldiers of Shenji Camp stood and sat down as if nothing had happened.

At this moment, the ammunition warehouse in the city caught fire. The fire was very fierce, and several places caught fire one after another. The Yarkand soldiers who were in charge of guarding the warehouse were striving to fight the fire, and soldiers kept coming from all directions to help.

The initiator Song Dayan was hiding in a dark alley fifty meters away from the warehouse. He gloatingly stared at the Yarkand soldiers running through the street. Look at the direction they were running, they should have rushed to the warehouse to put out the fire (successfully died).

About three minutes later, a shocking sound was heard, shaking the earth and the mountains were shaken. A huge mushroom cloud soared into the sky. With the ammunition warehouse as the center, all nearby buildings within 30 meters were razed to the ground. The violent shock wave caused sand and dust. Even the Yerkand defenders who were far above the city felt the strong wind blowing their faces, and they were so shocked that they fell down.

"Cough cough cough!" Song Dayan crawled out of the ruins, covered his mouth and nose and coughed violently.

The power of the explosion was beyond Song Dayan's expectations. Although he hid outside fifty, he was still affected by the shock wave. Fortunately, he was a little chest tightness and was not seriously injured. He was choked by dust. He was coughing while running towards the south city gate. At this time, Liu Xianzheng took the three brothers to the city gate quickly to take advantage of the chaos.

Didn’t there be ten “personal soldiers” following Yibula when they entered the city last night? Why did Liu Xian only have three helpers now?

It turned out that in order to avoid arousing suspicion, among the ten personal soldiers who followed Yibula yesterday, five were indeed Tatars under Yibula, while the other five were Liu Xian and Song Dayan, plus three soldiers from Xining Guards.

Liu Xian naturally did not dare to ask Yibula to help because of such an important matter of sneak attack on the city gate, and Yibula was happy to not participate. After all, it was too dangerous, so he stayed honestly in his residence.

Let’s get back to the point, Liu Xian and three brothers took advantage of the chaos of the explosion to touch the south gate, rushed forward and cut one of the Yarkand guards over, and then kicked the other guards down.

Speaking of which, there were as many as twenty Yarkand guards guarding the city gate. They were all shocked by the explosion in the city just now. After being cut down several people, they reacted. They picked up their weapons and rushed over to fight back. Liu Xian was immediately in danger.

"Come and help!" Liu Xian yelled in shock and anger. The three Xining Guard soldiers rushed up timidly, but one of them was stabbed to death by the other party in one encounter. The remaining two were so scared that their faces turned pale and they turned around and ran away.

I'm grass!

Liu Xian almost wanted to curse. Xiningwei's soldiers were used to being cowardly, and their courage could not be raised in a day. It was okay to fight the wind [Biquge www.bequge.xyz], but it was obvious that they could not make it difficult to make them chew on tough problems.

Sharp...

Liu Xian was distracted and his ribs were shot. Fortunately, he only pierced his clothes, and his skin was probably also shattered, which made him feel so painful.

Liu Xian grabbed the gun with his left hand and pulled the enemy soldier over, slashing half of his head with one knife, but at this time the three enemy soldiers bullied him again. Seeing that Liu Xian was about to die under the scimitar, a loud roar came from the darkness, and a copper stick swept through the wind.

Smack...

A powerful sweep across the tsunami, three Yarkand soldiers were swept out like defeated grass. One of them was broken into two pieces in half. The remaining two were probably broken. They fell to the ground and spit out blood and internal organs.

"Brother Song!" Liu Xian was surprised and happy when he saw Song Dayan holding a mature bronze stick god in his hand and rushing towards other enemy soldiers.

Song's eyes were fierce at this moment, like an unparalleled hero, and the bronze stick flew and swept across. Those who touched it died and touched it were broken, forcing the enemy soldiers near the city gate hole.

"Xiao Liu, open the city gate quickly!" Song Dayan shouted.

Liu Xian rushed towards the city gate and tried to open it, but there were several cross-border trees on the city gate, and they were all very heavy. Usually, at least three or four people needed to work together when opening the city gate. It was really difficult for Liu Xian to open the city gate alone.

Liu Xian gritted his teeth and tried his best to remove a crossbar. But at this time, the battle here obviously alarmed other defenders, and someone was constantly coming to support him. Although Song Dayan was brave, he was unable to defeat four hands after all, and he hung several colors on his body.

Liu Xian couldn't help but feel anxious. He drew his knife and cut the crossbar behind the door hard, trying to cut the crossbar. However, each crossbar was as thick as a sea bowl, so it was not easy to cut it off.

Liu Xian pried and kicked, and finally got rid of another crossbar. Just as he was about to continue, he heard Song Dayan's groan and hurriedly turned around and found that Song Dayan's thigh was shot and he fell to the ground with a staggering pace.

"Brother Song!" Liu Xian was shocked and rushed forward and wanted to rescue him.

Liu Xian is indeed a bit lucky. After he ran away from the city gate, a violent explosion sounded. The last crossbar behind the city gate was actually broken, and the thick city gate was also blown up so suddenly that it was blown open.

Two hundred Shenji Camp soldiers led by Xie Erjian immediately rushed in!

It turned out that taking advantage of the chaos caused by the explosion in the city just now, Xie Erjian waved his hand and two hundred fierce soldiers immediately rushed to the city wall. Some people crawled up the city head with a rope, while others placed the explosive bags that had been prepared long ago on the city gate.
