[69 Book Bar - www.] Lu Gongxing looked at me, and he was frightened. That was the real idea of the snake people. The east gate was not surrounded, and when we were about to release the citizens, we launched an attack again.
The citizens who had escaped from the city rushed back. After coming and going, they may have felt that the food and grass in the city had been almost exhausted, so they launched an attack from the east gate. If the high-speed rail hadn't fallen into the trap today, the snake men from the northwest gates would have been transferred away.
Many people have reached the south gate. If the snake people attack the entire east gate, the east gate may have been breached. However, judging from the snake people's offensive, today's round of attacks is probably mostly testing.
Now that the snake-men are encircling them, maybe the four gates will attack together next time? The snake-men are orderly and well-versed in the art of war. It is probably people like high-speed rail rushers who are giving them advice. Why should they help the snake-men?
?Could it be that they all have an sworn hatred against the Empire and the Republican Army, and they must kill them all?
I couldn't help but shudder when I thought that the high-speed railway would rather die than fall into our hands.
Lu Jingyu thought for a moment and said, "Then will the riot you discussed still happen?"
He shook his head and said: "I don't know. We were separated the day before yesterday, and there were also groups at the west gate and north gate. Did those monsters attack at the west gate and north gate today?"
I said: "No."
Indeed, the snakemen at the west gate and north gate did not attack. It seems strange at first glance, but it is not difficult to understand when you think about it carefully. I can smell the smell of high-speed rail rush in this strategy, and I am afraid it is also a high-speed rail rush.
The high-speed rail attack was set up specifically to target Lu Jingyu. He knew all the generals in the city well, and he also knew that this strategy would not work at the west gate and north gate. Only at the east gate, using Lu Jingyu's compassion, could this strategy be sold.
The main purpose of today's snake attack was to break Lu Jingyu's myth. When Lu Jingyu returned to the army, the morale of the entire army was boosted. Even the right army, which was at odds with the left army, was quite happy and encouraged.
Gao Tie Chong must have seen this, so he wanted to give Lu Jingyu a blow to lower the morale of our army.
He is dead, but his plans still seem to be coming true one by one. If Marquis Wu hadn't finally forced him to show up, I really don't know how we would have fought this war in the future.
"There is also this unexpected team of people."
After hearing our report, Marquis Wu pondered for a long time.
The credibility of this information is quite high. Although the Snake Man captives are not very powerful in combat, once the Snake Man can cooperate internally and externally, it is really possible to win in one fell swoop. After hearing our report, Wuhou also said in the tent
He was pacing back and forth, seemingly unable to make up his mind.
The task of becoming a teacher becomes more and more difficult day by day. If the idea mentioned by Cang Yue Gong is true, it may not be impossible. But now, it seems that we have no other choice but to hold on. Wu Hou has experienced hundreds of battles, and he must be dead by now.
idea.
Lu Gongxing said: "Your Majesty, if you can get in touch with the prisoners in the Snake Man formation, that would be a good strategy. Please think again, Wu Hou. I am willing to lead my troops to charge tomorrow. Even if this is a Snake Man tactic to lure the enemy, our troops
They are all cavalry, and they are enough to retreat into the city. This is better than sitting back and waiting for death."
Wu Hou walked a few more steps and suddenly stood still.
Has he made up his mind? I looked at Lu Gongxing, who was kneeling next to me, and he also had a look of anticipation on his face.
Wu Hou said: "Two generals, please get up."
When we stood up, Marquis Wu said loudly: "Daying, go and notify Lei Gu and ask all armies to come quickly to discuss military aircraft."
The result of the discussion is that if it is sunny tomorrow, as soon as there is any movement among the snake men, they will attack immediately and use the remaining half of the Tianlong flying dragon arrows to attack. If it is rainy, this plan will not work, and the messenger will be sent back to the capital immediately to ask for help.
This decision somewhat disappoints me. To be honest, I also agree with Lu Gongxing’s idea. Once the Snake people’s captives get into trouble, the Snake people will definitely be devastated. If we take advantage of the situation to make a surprise attack, we have a great chance of winning. That’s what Marquis Wu thought.
These are the firearms that Zhang Longyou can make with Zhang Longyou on a sunny day. With these firearms, we have a better chance of winning, but on a rainy day, even if the gang of snake-men in the formation takes action, we will have little chance of winning. We will go back to the imperial capital to ask for help.
That's just like talking in a dream. Surrounded by snake people, who can escape?
We really need a victory to boost our morale. Since the beginning of the siege by the snakemen, we have not even won a single victory. There have been more than 10,000 casualties, but the snakemen have only left a few hundred corpses. Calculating this ratio,
Marquis Wen would have to send at least one million troops.
After the meeting, we walked out of Wuhou's camp and Lu Gong and I said goodbye. It was raining, and the spring was cold. The rain hit me with a chill. I couldn't feel it when I was killing. Now I just feel that my clothes are wet and I feel cold.
I was trembling. I looked at Lu Gongxing, but he just looked at the sky, let out a long sigh, and said: "It's destiny, and it's hard to get it back with manpower. Alas."
The rain continued until the next day.
Early the next morning, I took the Dragon Scale Army to the south gate to stand by, but the rain kept falling and Wu Hou never ordered an attack. From a distance, I also saw a commotion among the snake people outside the south gate. It was just that commotion.
It also calmed down immediately, and the prisoners who were afraid of the rebellion were eliminated in the blink of an eye.
I sat blankly on the battlement, looking at the earth in the rain. The rain could not be seen from dozens of steps away. It was a gray sky. The rainy season in southern Xinjiang lasts for more than a month. I heard that it is the rainiest year in a row.
It rained for more than forty days.
Even with Zhang Longyou's firearms, how many days can we hold on in this rain? What's more, we can only hold on to food for ten days.
"Heavy rain is coming, the attack is cancelled, and all units are disbanded and returned to their troops."
Thunder Drum rushed over again and shouted to the troops standing at the top of the city. When I heard his words, I felt my heart sinking and I could hardly breathe.
The clothes on my body were soaked by the rain, and the underwear in the armor was wet and stuck to my body. It was extremely uncomfortable, but I didn't seem to feel it anymore.
The cold rain hit me from time to time. When I returned to the team at the top of the city, I took another look outside.
Because the snake camp is only one mile away from the city, the gate there can be seen from the city. From a distance, I can't help but feel sad when I see that the snake camp is calm again.
Perhaps, this is the last opportunity to turn defeat into victory. From now on, all we can do is to hold on and ask for reinforcements from the Imperial Capital.
Even if the messenger for help arrives successfully, the best plan is that the reinforcements will not arrive until a month later. However, I can't imagine whether the empire can send a force stronger than the 100,000 troops commanded by Marquis Wu.
Of course, Marquis Wen's direct lineage would not lose to Marquis Wu, but Marquis Wen only had a total of 10,000 troops, two thousand of which were lent to the central army by Marquis Wu. Even if Marquis Wen pieced together another 100,000-strong army,
When we reach southern Xinjiang, can we defeat the snake people?
Marquis Wu could not be unaware of this fact. At this time, he could no longer think of any practical strategies.
Five days passed. The messenger flew away. If he ran day and night, it would take seven days to reach the imperial capital no matter how fast he ran. But if he mobilized troops and ensured the supplies in the imperial capital, it would be a miracle that he could arrive in a month. Marquis Wu sent
The news is tightly sealed, and although the ration is still three dry biscuits per person per day, I don't think this number can last more than a few days.
When I was eating the dry food sent from the baggage camp, I discovered for the first time that dry biscuits were so delicious. I chewed the biscuits hard and swallowed every bite. Fortunately, there was enough water in the city to prevent me from choking.
die.
When I swallowed, my headache felt like it was about to split open. I have always felt dizzy since that day, and it was even worse today. Chewing dry biscuits today was almost like a punishment, and there was no such thing as the pleasure of a full meal.
It rained continuously for five days, and we were worried every day, fearing that the snake men would attack us at some unknown time. What was hateful was that the snake men would attack us almost every day, and every time they would attack us with one attack.
Let's go, it's obvious that we are here to harass. But every time we have to brace ourselves, God knows which time the snake people launched a real general attack.
That day will come soon, but no one dares to say it.
