Chapter 88:Siege Continues

Lu Wei suddenly woke up from his sleep and looked up to find that the day had just been bright, but there was a little commotion in the Mongolian camp a few miles away.

That night, he could not sleep for more than an hour, and he always woke up suddenly, afraid that when he was asleep, the enemy would attack Guangling again.Fortunately, at least this night passed peacefully, but when I looked farther away, I only saw a quiet, no reinforcements.

Did the people who were sent by Liu Yi to seek help also encounter accidents on the half-way?Why has it been almost a day and no reinforcements have arrived?You know, there are several counties near Guangling, and there are also soldiers and horses in Tuen, and they only work for half a day, and the garrison there can be arrived, which is one of the reasons why the garrison here is only 500.

But now, one day of fighting, the reinforcements did not even see the shadow, which could not help but make Lu Wei's heart mug, and the heart became more and more heavy.He opened his mouth to say something, but found that his throat was dry and painful, and some of it made no sound.

But yesterday, he shouted and commanded the army to guard the city, and then in the evening, in order to encourage the morale of the army to sing the "sailor" again and again, he caused a small damage to the throat.Just as Lu Wei was about to find some water to drink and moisten his throat, Lin Li handed over with a waterbag: "Adult."

Lu Wei was not kind, and he muttered a breath, feeling that his throat was more comfortable, and he asked hoarsely, "Is the tower outside the city about to attack me?"

Lin Li nodded, with a hint of uneasiness: "Yesterday, the little man saw that they had sent people to the north, and then dragged back some newly cut trees, I am afraid that they could make a simple siege equipment overnight."So today is a dangerous one.”

Although as a border town, the trees around Guangling are cut down and clean, but all the decent attacks have not been met with in recent years, so the forest that is far away from the city is no longer in charge.Yesterday, the blind people came suddenly again, and the Ming Army was even more late to get rid of these hidden dangers, and now it brought greater threats to the city.

Lu Wei’s eyebrows suddenly locked up tightly: “Yesterday they just threw with ropes and put us on tight.”Once the other instruments were used, I was afraid...” He said, and he shuddered.

Lin Li was silent, and obviously could not think of a good way to come.In fact, although he is a good person, he is very unfamiliar with the command of the military, so even if he has been a little famous in the army before, he can only be a captain in the charge, but he is not all caused by the darkness in the army.

At this time, Zhang Dai and Wang Bing have also come to Lu Wei, the two people's appearance is grim: "adult, the city's bow has been used for half, the wood stone is also a little can not support."After a meal, he said, “Have you ordered the demolition of the people in the city as a supplement?”

First he realized it, then he understood.When the weapons in the city gradually dried up, the homes of the inhabitants became natural and usable, which was inevitable in any age.Just a little sigh, Lu Wei nodded: "First of all, start from the people in the north of the city, remember to talk to the people first understand, as long as the Tatar is returned, my government will build a new house for them, I think the people should also understand our difficulties."

“Yes!”The two generals agreed, and quickly called the hundred people who were waiting to guard the city to go straight down the city, and they became people in the demolition team.

So on the morning of the second day of the beginning of this battle, there were riots in Guangling City, and it was roaring.The homes where the people lived for most of their lives were thus pulled down.Although watching the familiar home completely collapse in the roar and flying dust make them sad and tears, but everyone did not have a word of complaint.Because they know that this is a helpless move to save the city, once the city is broken, not only their own home, but also their own lives will not be guaranteed.

A pillar, the beam was sawn up one by one, moved to the city, and a few large pieces of stone (the ancient people's houses are not like the afterlife, mostly made of wood to use less stone, and there is no cement, and the houses that can be used with stone are more large families) and are also being lifted up to the city.

Watching the things on which these people depend for their survival were lifted up, Lu’s face became more and more heavy.These are the people's trust in the army, their own, they must not live up to their trust, in any case to keep this small town.

Bite the teeth, watching the city outside has gradually gathered into a team, about to attack the city again the Mongolian camp, Lu Wei loudly said to the surrounding soldiers: "Gentlemen, today's battle will only be more bitter than yesterday."But I believe that with the bravery of my wise men, even the greatest danger can be overcome by us.The Great will win!The whole world will win!”

“Tomorrow will win!The whole world will win!”

“Tomorrow will win!The whole world will win!”...

I don't know if because of the relationship between the song last night, whether the sergeant at the head of the city or the people have more respect for Lu Wei.So when he heard this, the people should shout out with a similar voice, completely with the enemy's death, as if even the fear of the tsar had diluted a lot.

Lu Yi saw this, his heart was fixed, his face also showed a firm look, and he looked out of the city: "Let's give a profound lesson to the Tatars outside the city again!"At the same time, he opened his arms as if he were welcoming each other and provoking the thousands of soldiers.

Seeing him so, the army heart was once again encouraged, and the noise of the drums sounded from the city, and then spread out to the camp of the people.

Although people can't hear what they are shouting because of distance, but the atmosphere can still be easily felt by them.Seeing that the Ming Army is still like a mountain of troops in such circumstances, and even more powerful than yesterday, the hearts of many Mongolian soldiers are shaken for a while, can this Guangling really not attack?

Yutai was even more angry and his face was somewhat distorted, and he ordered: "The horn, ready to attack!"

The trumpet sounded again, and after three long hours the garrison pressed over again towards the broad spirit.

This time, it was different from yesterday’s attack.The Mongolian people are no longer as chaotic as yesterday, but slowly advancing forward with a neat queue, although the speed is much slower, but the pressure formed has increased exponentially.

Especially shocking is that a ladder of siege was carried by many people in front of the team.Although the ladder looks quite rudimentary, there is no bed baffle that is used to the ladder, and there is no nail above the wedges into the city, it is much more threatening than the ropes of yesterday.

The people of the city may not feel anything to see this, but the guard who knows some military affairs took a breath of cool air, stared at the front with some concern, and the bow in their hands trembled a little.

Lu Wei also understood the threat after the reminder of the people around him, and quickly turned to the thought in his heart: "But what is the way to destroy these ladders?"Attacked by fire?Yes, with fire!”

Make up your mind, while the enemy has not yet attacked the city, Lu Wei busy asked Zhang Dai around: "Yesterday guarded the city, why don't we use running oil or fire oil to break the enemy?"

Zhang Dai smiled bitterly: "Guangling city poor, usually there is not much accumulated oil, but at this time where to look for it?"

In my heart, this is really a big problem.Light with the fire ignited the arrow shot out of the root can not play much role, only with those oils can play a certain role.After a pause, he called a sergeant: "You quickly return to the city to find the two adults in the county, let them quickly collect light oil in the city, and even combustible things such as spirits, and let people bring them to the city as soon as possible."

“Yes.”The army promised and hurried down to the city.

Because the war suddenly, coupled with the original Lord Liu Yi's serious injury coma, Lu Wei this replacement in many details can not take care of, can only think of what to do, until the battle is about to start, the city is still preparing for a variety of city-keeping equipment, it seems busy, and some ridiculous.

Of course, all this could not have affected the Mongols in the city.After coming to the city outside the city, hundreds of cavalry suddenly strangled and killed, sprinting at the same time, the hand has been raised high, a feathered arrow quickly shot up the city.

Fortunately, after yesterday's observation, Lu Wei also had a certain forecast for this, and the time life of the person once again raised the shield and blocked it on the wall.

In the sound of a tidbit, the enemy's tentative offensive was blocked.

But in this regard, Lu Wei and everyone do not have any sense of ease, because we all know that this is only the beginning, the real test is still the future.

Sure enough, with a sharp trumpet, some backward blind people carrying ladders began to run hard, and soon they were close to the wall.

Although the city's Ming army also tried to shoot arrows to stop, but the scattered arrows could not stop the rapid footsteps of the enemy, and soon, they had come to the city, under a loud shout, the ladder carried by them was quickly erected, and the sound of the bang was clung to the broad-spirited wall full of arrows.

Then the people in the back also rattled and rushed forward in a more ferocious manner.The cavalrymen who had just now were still shooting arrows up the city one by one, blocking the Ming Army's response and creating opportunities for others to climb the city.

Obviously, after losing yesterday, the Mongolians have been more organized on the siege of the city, which naturally increases the pressure on the Ming Army.

And what is even more shocking to them is that in addition to this frontal attack, the Mongolians have once again re-worked their skills, sent two sides of the army to divide the city on both sides of the city, and the Ming Army had to divide the people and horses out again, so as to guard the power of the North City!
