citadel with a rush

[Romel Panzer]

What does it mean "to carry the citadel with a rush".

[David L.]

'carry' is being used with the meaning, to take something away by force
rush' = a dash toward something in an attempt to attack or capture it

so, with a dash forward as he attacked, he was able to take (wrest) the citadel away from its occupiers.

I am still doubtful about the usage of this expression. Does it convey the meaning of "quick victory" or "Precipitous attempt". Grateful for more explanation with example, if possible.

Hi romel,
If it was "carried" it's a victory.
