Chapter 52
Since the plan to counterattack Yuyang was made, gunpowder was distributed to everyone, and the logistics managed by Shen Guan also began to speed up the production of dry food.

Now Yu Qing is a little distressed, he has a strong army but no one to use, after all, Li Shu, Shen Guan, Bai Yunhua and others are left on his side besides himself.

One person had to be left to guard the "old nest" of Dingbeiguan, but who to keep became a problem. Keeping Bai Yunhua was really an overkill for killing mosquitoes.

If Li Shu is left behind, no one can be a vanguard general anymore, so it is impossible for Yu Qing to lead people to attack the city gate now!

After thinking about it, Yu Qing realized that he had only one choice, and that was Shen Guan!

Shen Guan, who was recruited by Yu Qing, is a little dazed now. The entire Dingbei Pass has begun to prepare for the battle urgently. Although he is in charge of logistics, this meeting will not be idle.

"Brother, what exactly are you looking for with me?" Seeing Yu Qing making detours, Shen Guan said proactively, "It's okay, I'm leaving, there are still many things to do!"

"Wait a minute!" Yu Qing quickly grabbed Shen Guan and said with determination, "There is an important task for you next!"

"You bring 2000 people to garrison Dingbei Pass!"

Hearing this, Shen Guan panicked, his own family knew about his own family affairs, he had to know that it was okay to manage the money and food by himself, but it might not be possible to lead troops to defend the city.

No matter how Shen Guan refused, Yu Qing vetoed it, and finally had no choice but to agree.

Early the next morning, Yu Qing and others led [-] vanguard troops and [-] white-robed troops out of Dingbei Pass and went straight to Zhengbei Pass.

When they came to Zhengbei Pass, the soldiers on the wall closed the gate and looked at Yu Qing and others as if they were facing a big enemy.

Li Shucui immediately stepped forward and shouted loudly, "Open the city gate and surrender, Rao Er will not die!"

"Don't be crazy, General Helian's arrival is your time of death!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Qing laughed, "How can Helian Zhonglin be willing to come back here now? Attack!"

With an order, the soldiers behind began to beat the drums, and the sound of the "dong dong dong" drums made everyone's blood boil.

The assault team rode straight to the city gate from the side. The Koryo soldiers on the city wall were full of doubts. What is the use of the cavalry charge? The gate is closed and dozens of people can open it?

Everyone ignored the team, and some even looked at them curiously, wanting to see what they were going to do!
When they came to the city gate, the assault team didn't expect it to go so smoothly. The enemy didn't even shoot an arrow.

Take the gunpowder packs from the horses and pile them up next to the city wall. This is a new method taught by my lord. It is not easy to repair the city gate, but it doesn’t matter if you blow up the city wall. After occupying it, you have to use cement to repair it.

The fire zip ignited the fuse, and the flame followed the fuse to the gunpowder pack. There was a loud "bang", and the earth trembled.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Yu Qing roared excitedly, "Soldiers, follow me! Kill!"

On one side were the surging soldiers, and on the other side were the soldiers who were shocked in place. The battle between the two sides soon became a one-sided situation. The enemy guard general was miserable and was directly buried by the collapsed city wall.

It didn't take long for the shouting, shouting and killing to gradually quiet down. At this time, everyone realized that there were not many people stationed at Zhengbei Pass.

"My lord, what should we do next?" Bai Yunhua asked with a salute.

"Where's Li Shu? Li Shu!"

"Brother!" Li Shu stood up covered in blood, and it was obvious that this guy rushed forward and cut people.

"You lead a thousand vanguard troops to defend Zhengbei Pass, and we will go all out to take Yuyang!"

"Brother, I want to go too!"

"Where are you going? We'll leave for a while and just keep here." Yu Qing said angrily, "You all left with me, isn't this an empty city!"

Seeing Yu Qing and others leaving the loess, Li Shu had no choice but to order the suspension bridge to be raised.

It was night when we came to Yuyang. From a distance, only two or three torches were still burning, and there were not many people patrolling the city walls.

"Lord, this doesn't look right, does it?"

"It's a bit wrong, Yuyang is a big city, how could there be only three or two kittens."

Yu Qing thought for a moment and decided to try to beat Yuyang, after all, besides the trap, there is another possibility is bluffing.

The assault team gave up their horses this time, and rushed over with a gunpowder bag each.

Seeing the figures gradually approaching the city wall, smiles appeared on the faces of Yu Qing and the others, as long as they were close to the city wall, it would be easy.

I saw an accident happened at this time, and the figure disappeared directly after a few screams.

The screams also alarmed the Goryeo soldiers on the city wall, and countless torches were lit on the city wall for a while.

"It's over, something happened!" At this time, Yu Qing and the others were a little nervous, and it was impossible to be discovered without warning. Could it be that the enemy was prepared?

A ditch appeared not far from the city wall, filled with broken blades, and several broken blades passed through the body of the assault team to reveal red blades.

Everyone understands that they have already prepared for their fall this time.

Listening to the noisy voices on the city wall, everyone only hoped that their general would not rush over.

So one of the soldiers ignited the gunpowder with the last bit of strength. Seeing this scene, some people closed their eyes in relief.

They know the importance of gunpowder packs, and this thing cannot fall into the hands of the enemy, otherwise the advantage will be lost.

Before the Goryeo soldiers threw torches down to check the situation, several gunpowder bags exploded in the trench at the same time.

The firelight illuminates the appearance of the trench, which is reflected in people's eyes.

Yu Qing and others shed tears, while the Korean soldiers on the city wall were frightened. They did not expect such a thing to happen.

They were so scared that they all lay on the ground, and no one dared to look down until the explosion ended and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke.

"Retreat!" Yu Qing gritted his teeth and roared out this sentence, but he didn't expect that he would capsize in the gutter.

After dawn, everyone rushed back to Zhengbei Pass. Seeing everyone's dejected appearance, the soldiers who stayed behind knew that something had happened. I'm afraid Yuyang was not defeated.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Li Shu asked doubtfully.

Unexpectedly, Yu Qing sighed and went directly into the room prepared in advance, the door was closed tightly.

Li Shu hurriedly stopped Bai Yunhua and asked, "Brother, what's wrong? What happened to you last night?"

"The sneak attack failed, and all the assault teams were killed, so we withdrew."

Upon hearing this, Li Shu understood why Yu Qing became like this. You must know that Yu Qing had always instilled in them the idea that people are more important than anything else.

In the room, Yu Qing was lying on the bed blankly, the screams of the assault team last night were still echoing in his ears.

The assault team is all tall and strong soldiers selected by Yu Qing himself. They run fast, have great strength and good martial arts, and basically have a Modao. When the city is broken, they are the ones who rushed to the front. I didn't expect that this time the vanguard soldiers were all finished. .It's over!
