Chapter 756: Underground

<-》

Of course, Yao Changkun would not pay attention to Jiang Xu. He is Yun Zhao's personal bodyguard. His duty is to protect Yun Zhao's safety. Although Yun Zhao actually doesn't need human protection. If Wu Fan is here, Yao Changkun might let Jiang Xu go up to show his majesty and morale. However, Wu Fan accompanied Yaerdan to the outside of the pass, so Jiang Xu didn't have to think about leaving Yun Zhao's side to kill all directions.

Lucheng Camp rested today, but only formed a formation to press the formation in the rear. It was Wang Qiang's fourth battalion, which was the turn of the siege. The fourth battalion, from the main general Wang Qiang to Shangguan Biao, Zeng Ke, all young generals were eager to try, especially Shangguan Biao and Zeng Ke, who suffered the loss of the Leopard Guard in Shangkang and Xiakang, and they were always worried. Although it was a strategic need, it also made the two very annoyed. After all, the casualties were brothers who lived together day and night. The Leopard Guard was destroyed, and the two of them were the aura that was about to spread to the heads of Jinwu Guards.

Today is the first battle in Lincheng. A few days ago, Lucheng Camp had filled the moat and dug the slope. Another fire burned the top of Yizhou City beyond recognition. If we could take down Yizhou City in one go, it would be impossible. The Fourth Battalion will be famous, just like Lucheng Camp, Anqing Camp, etc., which generally has a battalion name that belongs to them completely. Wang Qiang has been resentful of the Fourth Battalion.

As a cover force, the thunderbolt cannon has begun to be fired. Countless demon-suffering crossbows almost covered the sky with sharp roars. The skilled Mengqi rode around the city and bent his bow and arrow, but someone showed his head in the city. He shot an arrow at the burned black city wall opposite. Wang Qiang pulled out the sword on his waist and pointed forward suddenly.

"Fourth Battalion, attack!"

With a shocking shout, the soldiers of the Fourth Battalion carried the ladder, hit the city and beat the siege car, pushed the siege car, and rushed towards the Yizhou city wall. Almost at the same time, the sound of earth-shaking war drums sounded on the Yizhou city. Just now, there were countless crossbows with cold light on their heads exposed from the corner of the wall. The feather arrows on the strong bows aimed at the Zhengbei Army who rushed up from the city.

Thunderbolt shells flew out from the city, which were very scattered, but they were all aimed at those huge siege cars.

Kan Gan put his nose into the pig urine cannon and took a deep breath. The stuffiness in his chest suddenly eased. He lay on the ground, holding a small shovel in his hand, inserted it into the wet soil in front of him, pressing and pulling hard, and a large ball of fresh soil was dug out not far behind him. Several of his brothers were curled up in a large hole dug out, ready to take turns to replace him at any time. When Kan Gan was getting down the hole, he carefully observed and measured his authentic progress. He could confirm that he had arrived at the central area of ​​Yizhou City. On his head, there should be a large residential house. He decided to start digging upwards.

You can't dig at night because there is no fighting at night, and the enemy will notice his movements on the ground at any time. After all, there are many techniques for detecting and digging tunnels. The Jinwu Guards on their heads are all veterans and are very good at this. Only during the day, when the Zhengbei Army launched a fierce attack on Yizhou City, did he dare to dig inward with confidence and boldness.

Kan Gan worked very enthusiastically. He used to be just a tomb robber. He was a unclean profession that anyone would spit on his face when he knew this identity. People say that tomb robbers would be robbed. But who knows their suffering? If they weren't really unable to survive, who would have done this? Digging out the treasures in the tomb. People like him actually got very little, and his big head was swallowed by the middle brokers. These people knew that tomb robbers had no bargaining capital, so they could only eat them.

The risk of doing this business is too great. Kan Gan saw with his own eyes that his master was penetrated by thousands of arrows after attacking a large tomb. More of his friends died in the strange traps in the tombs, and some were caught and beaten by the government. Kan Gan himself couldn't believe that he could live for so long.

Later, the Zhengbei Army rose. Joining the army can not only support himself, but also support his family. Kan Gan joined the Zhengbei Army with his only remaining friends. Although he was just a small soldier, his military pay was really considerable. More importantly, he got rid of that nightmare profession and could be a dignified person.

In Lucheng Camp for several years, after countless battles, some of his friends died in battle. Now there are only four of them left, and Kan Gan also became a small officer. What he never expected was that the skills he had learned from tomb robbers would be appreciated by the governor today. He jumped into Zhenwu Captain, and the four brothers also became Zhiguo Captain and Zhenwu Captain. He was already an intermediate officer of the Northern Army.

Thinking of this, Kan Gan couldn't help but speed up his work. The governor did not look down on himself as a tomb robber, but instead promoted. Obviously, his skills were still very useful. If he worked hard, he might become a general. If this day really happened, his wife in the country would definitely be very happy, and his wife's family would no longer dare to look down on him.

Her family knew that she was doing this business, so her wife was driven away by her family and often complained in front of her that if she became the general's wife, would her father-in-law and mother-in-law in that small countryside dare to look down on her?

The shovel was swung vigorously and another large piece of soil was shoveled. The shovel was specially made for the people in the camp. General Meng said that in order to make this shovel, the blacksmith in the camp melted several excellent steel knives. The material of the shovel was indeed very good, extremely sharp. Not only did it shovel the soil, but it was easy to lift even if it was shoveling people's head.

He shoveled it hard again, and the shovel made a tingling sound. He slighted his hand and the shovel broke through the ground and easily penetrated the earth wall in front of him. At this moment, Kan Gan was frozen there, like a scoop of ice water pouring down from his head in the cold winter. Oh no! There was only one voice in his heart shouting

The shovel broke through the ground, which only means that the front of you was empty. Under the ground, when you encounter this situation, the worst possibility is that you encountered some facilities set up by the Jinwu Guard to prevent tunnel digging. If this is the case, there is no doubt that you have been discovered.

Kan Gan almost fainted. Once discovered, his brothers were not willing to die. However, the great affairs of the governor were broken. The shovel was still stuck on the earth wall and was not pulled out. Kan Gan's sweat was flowing down the ground.

I don’t know how long it took, someone from behind gently poked his ass, “Boss, what’s wrong with you? There was no movement for a long time, and he scared the brothers!” The greetings from the brothers came from behind, and finally pulled Kan Wen’s soul back from outside the nine-night clouds.

He turned his head and made a gesture, and the smile on the faces of the brother behind him froze.

"You guys, quit immediately!" Kan Wen whispered in a low voice

"Boss, it's too late. If we really touch the ban, we can't escape."

Kan Gan took a deep breath. Brother said it right. The tunnel he dug himself only allows one person to crawl slowly. Every hundreds of meters, a hole that allows people to stretch their bodies slightly. If the enemy discovers it, there is no chance of escape.

"Governor bless us!" Kan Gan muttered a few words in his heart, and the shovel suddenly pulled back. A large pile of soil with broken bricks and stones was brought back with the shovel. A dark hole appeared in front of Kan Gan's eyes.

He suddenly reached out and grabbed the broken bricks and stones that were brought with the soil. He looked carefully under the reflection of the fire pieces, and glory suddenly burst out in Kan Gan's eyes.

He waved the shovel hard, and the holes in front of him were slowly expanding, and there were more and more broken bricks and stones. Finally, he poked out the small hole in his head. There was actually light on his head. He saw a sky of more than a radius of more than a foot.

In front of him, there was a long-abandoned deep well Kan Gan was ecstatic in his heart. He waved the shovel hard and dug out a passage for people to climb out. He suddenly crawled out. A sweet and fishy air made him feel very comfortable.

After many years of tomb robbers, my luck has never been so good! Kan Gan sighed in his heart, the governor is indeed the son of destiny. If you dig a tunnel, you will be protected by gods and Buddhas in secret.

The bottom of the deep-mining is not big. When the three brothers squeeze in, they can't even turn around. Looking up at the sky above their heads, the three of them have excited expressions on their faces.

"Let's go, let's go out!" Kan Gan whispered. Although the sound was extremely small, the echo was still frightened. At this time, as long as a person appeared on it, a stone was smashed down, and the three people kept the account immediately.

On the ground, the battle has reached a white-hot stage. The soldiers of the Fourth Battalion are sieging the city. The huge siege vehicles have been destroyed. They are scattered on the ground in a mess. Some are still burning. Hundreds of ladders are laid on the city wall. The soldiers shouted and climbed up the ladder one after another. On the city wall, the demon-subduing crossbows are densely covered with the city walls. The powerful force makes these demon-subduing crossbows more than half a foot into the city. The crossbow poles as thick as a child's arms have also become tools for soldiers to climb. Many soldiers grabbed these arrow rods and bit their horizontal swords in their mouths, climbing upwards.

Many siege vehicles were destroyed, but dozens of them were still leaning against the city wall. On the siege vehicles, the thunder fire angrily erupted short crossbow arrows, sweeping down the Jinwu Guards who were blocking the front, but there were still countless Jinwu Guard soldiers holding shields and pounced on one after another, fighting desperately with the Northern Army on the siege vehicles.
