Chapter 181: Surprise Attack on Huming City (4)

After feeling something sharp scratch his neck, the bearded soldier immediately felt severe pain coming from the place where he had just been scratched by the sharp weapon!

Although due to the angle of view, he couldn't see the condition of his neck.

But the bearded soldier is sure that his neck must have been cut open with a big hole! Warm blood must also be gushing out from the wound on the neck like a spring!

The strong desire to survive caused the bearded soldier to burst out with amazing power and began to struggle crazily!

However, the man standing behind the bearded soldier and restraining him was very strong and very skilled. He seemed to be very skilled in this killing method of quietly slitting the throat behind the back.

No matter how hard the bearded soldier struggled, he couldn't break free, let alone make a sound.

Within a few seconds, the bearded soldier's strength slowly weakened.

The look in his pupils slowly dissipated.

Finally - his hands dropped softly, and the whole person stopped struggling.

The person who stood behind the bearded soldier and cut his throat, after confirming that the bearded soldier was dead, gently laid him flat on the ground.

Then he quickly walked to the city wall where the little bearded soldier had just leaned.

At this time, there was a grappling hook painted black, grabbing at the wall where the mustachioed soldier had just leaned.

Behind this black grappling hook, there is also a thick rope that is also painted black.

At this time, nearly 50 people were waiting quietly under this thick black rope!

The soldier who successfully assassinated both the bearded soldier and the mustache soldier returned to the black grappling hook, grabbed the thick black rope and shook it vigorously!

A soldier who was waiting under the thick black rope carefully observed the movement of the thick black rope. After seeing the thick black rope being shaken wildly, he quickly turned his head and lowered his voice to a handsome young man next to him:

"Captain Enli, it's safe up there and you can board it."

As soon as the soldier finished speaking, Enli, who had been keeping his eyes closed since just now, suddenly opened his eyes and then growled:

"Everyone climbs the wall."

Enli's words were like a switch that could drive the No. 50 people around him to take action.

As soon as he finished speaking, person No. 50, who had been waiting quietly under this thick black rope, immediately started to move!

Three of the soldiers immediately took out a grappling hook that was also painted black and had a thick black rope attached to the back, and then swung it toward the city wall!

Click, click, click,

There were three very clear sounds of grappling hooks catching the masonry of the city wall.

In addition to the previous grappling hook, there are now four grappling hooks with thick black ropes attached to the back of the city wall.

After pulling on the three newly thrown grappling hooks to make sure that the three grappling hooks were firmly grasped, the 50 soldiers immediately grabbed the thick ropes hanging from the four grappling hooks and stepped on the city wall with their feet. On the wall, climb up towards the city wall!

Enli raised his head and looked at the thick black rope hanging from the grappling hook on the city wall, then looked at the city wall which was neither very high nor very short, and then took a deep breath. His eyes gradually burst out with strong fighting spirit, and he encouraged himself in his heart:

You must successfully capture the city wall and lower the city gate!

…

Just tonight, at 19:49 pm on March 12, 290 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire, the surprise attack force responsible for the surprise attack on Huming City finally completed the mission of attacking 800 miles in four days! Successfully arrived at the gates of Huming City on the night of March 12th.

There are also all kinds of thrills along the way.

Not all the strongholds on the northern defense line of the Rollin Empire are very far apart.

Before the "Spring Awakening" offensive began, Iser and Albert conducted in-depth research on what route the surprise attack force should take.

After five days of intense discussion, the two decided on the surprise attack route.

That is through the gap between Zern City and Arsi City!

Because the two strongholds of Zeng'er City and Arsi City are the farthest apart,

The hardest to find.

However, the people of the Luolin Empire are not fools. They naturally know that the distance between Zeng'er City and Arsi City is quite far.

Therefore, a large number of light cavalry were naturally deployed between Zeng'er City and Arsi City for patrol and warning.

In the northern defense line that passed through the Luolin Empire, the biggest difficulty was not actually running 800 miles in four days, but how to avoid the large number of light cavalry between the two strongholds of Zerner City and Arsi City.

This is actually one of the reasons why Iser gave Albert the task of surprise attack on Huming City.

Because Albert is best at cavalry combat.

Albert, who commanded the surprise attack force, immediately spread a large number of sentries around the large army to provide warning after entering the territory of the Luolin Empire.

Once the enemy's light cavalry is found, they will immediately rush back to report it.

With his excellent cavalry command skills and his excellent intuition cultivated in many years of bloody battles on the battlefield, Albert successfully led the surprise attack force to bypass every enemy patrol.

Another important reason why Albert was able to bypass these patrols so easily was that these patrols were very lax.

The army of the Luolin Empire, from the generals at the top to the ordinary soldiers at the bottom, all mistakenly thought that the "Spring Awakening" offensive of the Britannia Empire was to deal with the Frank Empire.

Therefore, the attitude of the garrison troops on the northern defense line of the Luolin Empire, including many generals, became relaxed.

Anyway, the Britannians are now going to deal with the Frankish Empire, and they won't be fighting in the near future, so there is no need to be so nervous.

——This is the current sentiment of most of the generals and soldiers of the Luolin Empire's northern defense line.

Therefore, the light cavalry team patrolling between Zern City and Arsi City had a relaxed attitude, and they did not take the patrol mission seriously.

If the patrolling light cavalry were more serious, Albert and his surprise attack troops would not be able to avoid them so easily.

However, not every patrol can be avoided by Albert leading a surprise attack force.

Facing the patrol that cannot be avoided, Albert's solution is also very simple.

That means killing them all without leaving any one behind!

On the way to Huming City, Albert could not count how many patrols he ordered to kill that could not be avoided.

Although killing the patrol team will make the enemy in the stronghold notice something strange, it doesn't matter.

Because it takes time for the bottom level to report to the high-level of the stronghold when the patrol is found to have been killed, and then the high-level of the stronghold to report to the general headquarters in Huming City!

And Albert can completely take advantage of this time difference!

As long as he could arrive at Huming City on the night of March 12th, that is, before the information that "something happened to the patrol" was delivered to the general headquarters in Huming City, all problems would be solved!

Fortunately, Albert and his surprise attack force successfully arrived at Huming City on the night of March 12th!

Successfully arrived at Huming City before the two pieces of information, "Britannia Army Going South" and "Patrol Attacked" arrived at Huming City, thus declaring the first phase of the "surprise attack on Huming City" a complete success!

Next, we only need to complete the second and final stage - capturing Huming City. Then this "surprise attack on Huming City" operation will be successfully concluded!

As for how to capture Huming City, Iser and Albert had already conducted detailed discussions and research as early as February this year.
