Chapter 1201 The means of both sides
Only Dingxiang City is the most convenient road to the Eastern Turks, which is why the Eastern Turks have always attacked here.
Dingxiang City was preparing for defense after the battle, while the Western Turks, on the other hand, were also preparing for attack in order to cope with tomorrow's battle.
Both sides are preparing to see the results on the second day!
After two days of fighting, Tang Jun was lying when he said he was not tired. Not only was his body exhausted, but his body was also exhausted! He even had no appetite for food. He forced himself to eat because if he didn't eat, he would not have the energy to fight tomorrow.
Got it!
The Western Turks are relatively relaxed. In the camp, beside the campfire, eating barbecue and drinking wine, it is very comfortable!
This also shows the difference in mentality between the two parties!
Li Jing obviously discovered this, but there was nothing he could do. It was useless to talk empty words, and the soldiers were not fools.
However, the methods that should be used still had to be used, and some gossip was released under his intentional control.
"Have you heard that General Zheng's reinforcements will arrive in Dingxiang City in three days? We only need to hold on for three days!"
"Is it true? Reinforcements will arrive in three days?"
"I heard it from Mr. Yuchi himself, how could I be wrong!"
"If that's the case, wouldn't we be able to survive?"
"That's natural. Didn't you know that when our artillery fired yesterday, those Western Turks were scared to death and retreated! As long as we have artillery, we are not afraid of the Western Turks' attack!"
"Yes, yes, although the Western Turks are powerful, we have artillery and wooden knots. With these two things around, we are afraid that the Western Turks dare to approach the city wall, so we will use the wooden knots to greet them to prevent them from coming.
Come back!"
"We have prepared a lot of rolling wood and stone building today. We must give them a tough blow tomorrow!"
Such words were circulated among the soldiers. After Li Jing sent someone to inquire about this situation, he nodded with satisfaction.
In this way, the morale of the soldiers is at least not so low. There is still hope for defending the city tomorrow, but the day after tomorrow...
Li Jing could not help but feel a little headache at the thought of holding on for three days. It is really difficult for a woman to make a meal without straw.
Yuchi Jingde and others have already gone to patrol the city. Not only Li Jing is worried, but these generals are also a little nervous. Having said that, they are not afraid of the Western Turks, but the pressure is definitely not small.
Walking back and forth in his house, Li Jing seemed to be making some decision.
When Li Ji came to his house, Li Jing immediately told Li Ji his thoughts.
After hearing Li Jing's thoughts, Li Ji pondered for a while and nodded vigorously, agreeing with Li Jing's thoughts.
At that moment, Li Ji hurriedly left the house and went to arrange Li Jing's arrangements. If Li Jing's idea can succeed, there may be unexpected results for tomorrow's war!
When the dawn sun rose from the sky, the soldiers were all well-fed and stood on the city wall, waiting for the arrival of the enemy.
Ten miles away from Dingxiang City, the army was ready to go, rushed out of the camp and headed towards Dingxiang City.
In the middle, sixteen horses pulled a huge carriage forward slowly.
Sitting on the carriage was naturally King Zuo Xian, and around him sat a group of Western Turk generals! King Zuo Xian was chatting and laughing with him, it was very relaxing and comfortable, and he did not put this battle aside at all.
In their eyes and in their hearts, Dingxiang City has long been regarded as something in their pocket!
After all, their army has strong soldiers and horses, and after two days of testing, they have tested out the reality of the defenders in Dingxiang City, and also tested out Dingxiang City's trump card.
Apart from the lumps of wood and the artillery, Dingxiang City really posed no threat to them.
As for the artillery that threatened the most, it seemed that the number was not large, otherwise Li Jing, who was defending the city, would not have used it on the second day when the situation was not good, but would have used it against them at the beginning of the war.
All kinds of news combined have doubled the confidence of the Western Turkic army!
Because of Changsun Chong's meritorious service and his remarkable performance in the previous battles, King Zuo Xian once again ordered him to lead a group of foreign troops to attack the west wall.
Changsun Chong naturally had no objection to this, and was even very happy!
Of course, Changsun Chong is not a fool. Changsun Chong also knows the attitude of King Zuo Xian towards him. For the time being, he can only swallow his anger. When he really controls an army, by then, he will not give any more
The face of King Zuo Xian.
And the one who can make this decision is not King Zuoxian, but the Khan of Western Turks!
Everything Changsun Chong is doing now is for the Western Turks Khan to see!
There are no fools in this world. If you say someone is a fool, you are the fool in the eyes of others!
