Chapter 2534 : Chapter 1286: Attack and Defense in the River East (2)
This myth is absolutely brilliant and worthy of inclusion in the annals of history. But on the other hand, Liu Ba knows that this alone is not enough.
The gap in strength cannot be made up by morale. The 80,000 elite soldiers of Wei and Yan are powerful, while the 10,000 miscellaneous soldiers in the city are synonymous with weakness.
And as the war continued, the number of hungry 10,000 miscellaneous soldiers also decreased at an alarming rate. They could rely on this high morale to persist for a few days, but how many days could they persist?
If there are no other means, Hedong still cannot be saved. And this is completely inconsistent with Liu Ba's will at the moment. At this moment, Liu Ba has only one thought in his mind.
That is to protect Hedong and the retreat route of the Han army. It will make the Han army in an invincible position and allow the Han army to merge with the state.[
"Immediately send people to the city to shout and have all the people in the city gather in the military camp in the east of the city." After Liu Ba pondered for a moment, he slowly exhaled and then ordered.
"promise."
He made a promise and immediately went to arrange it.
"General, you are the hero of the world. I firmly believe that the troubled times will end in your hands." After giving the order, Liu Ba raised his head, looked in the direction of Huguan, and thought to himself.
"Da da da."
On the other hand, following Liu Ba's command, the order was issued. Countless cavalrymen, riding war horses, galloped through the city amidst the crisp and frantic sound of horse hooves.
"The governor has given an order for all the people in the city to gather at the military camp in the east of the city."
"The governor has given an order for all the people in the city to gather at the military camp in the east of the city."
"……."
While galloping, the cavalry shouted Liu Ba's orders.
Anyi is the county seat of Hedong County. And Hedong County is one of the few large counties in the world, with a population of two to three hundred thousand.
There are a population of 40,000 to 50,000 in Anyi City. At this moment, countless people are listening to the sounds of fighting and are full of confusion about the future.
What will happen in the war? The armies of Wei and Yan are so fierce. Will they be massacred after entering the city? This is the reason why the people are confused and afraid.
Although Liu Ba's time as county guard was short, Liu Ba was very capable and established some prestige in a short period of time.
Because of confusion, fear, and some trust in Liu Ba, countless people opened their doors and walked out after hearing the cavalry's roar.
"Squeak."
"Squeak."
I only heard the sound of opening the door one after another, and countless people, old and young, came out. These were very ordinary faces, just ordinary people.
"The sound of fighting is becoming more and more fierce. I am afraid that Anyi City has reached a critical point. This time, I have to send the child away again."[
An old man over fifty years old sighed and burst into tears.
The old man had some insight and knew that the situation was dangerous at this moment. He was afraid that the county governor would call on the people in the city to go to the military camp in the east of the city, so that the strong men could defend the city.
That's why the old man said, I'm giving away another child. And why is it the word "you"? Because the old man has five sons, one of whom was recruited by Yuan Shao, and his current whereabouts are unknown.
Another one was recruited by Zhang Yang, the former governor of Hanoi, and is currently dead.
There is another one who was recruited by a senior cadre and died in the battle a long time ago. There are still two younger sons left, one is twenty-five years old and the other is twenty years old.
I'm afraid it won't be possible to save it this time.
But after sighing and crying for a moment, the old man wiped away his tears and resolutely took the children to the military camp in the east of the city.
Because the old man knew that as long as the troubled times continued, none of his children could be saved. On the contrary, if he helped the Han Dynasty stabilize the world, his grandchildren would be able to enjoy peace.
