Chapter 627: Decision

"Father, look at the enemy's archer troops, you, I all know that archers consume a lot of energy when shooting arrows, so the average archer, after shooting twenty or thirty arrows, at most forty or fifty arrows, will stop and rest because of the exhaustion of strength, therefore, at this time, there will inevitably be a vacuum time for bow and arrow attacks.

However, if you look at the enemies on the walls, their bows and arrows have not stopped from the beginning to the end, and if there were only four or five thousand soldiers on the walls, we thought before, would this be possible?

However, what I am most curious about is that even if there are 14,500 troops on the city wall, such an army cannot achieve the continuity of vitality, how can the enemy on the city wall do this?"

Xiao Chengji had a puzzled look on his face, he really couldn't figure out how the enemy on the city wall could achieve the continuity of vitality.

You know, in fact, in terms of the number of archers, the number of archers under Lu Ming is definitely more than the enemy on the city wall, but Lu Ming's archer troops will have a vacuum of vitality from time to time due to the exhaustion of strength, but on the city wall, it has always maintained the output of vitality, Xiao Chengji really wants to know the answer here, because this can greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the archer troops under them.

Thinking that the archer troops under his command could also maintain such a long-lasting attack power, Xiao Chengji's heart felt a burst of heat.

is also full of heat in his heart and Xiao Quan in the upper position, but now is not the time to wonder why the enemy's archer troops are so powerful, and now Xiao Quan can confirm that the fact that Lu Ming said before that the number of enemies has increased greatly is true.

Not only Xiao Quan, after listening to Xiao Chengji's words, all the generals in the big tent were justified, and even Lu Ming was attracted by his words.

Lu Ming has always had a wise mind in the Black Wind Thieves, and in the previous battles, Lu Ming showed strong wisdom, and every time he fought in a battle, he gave some very constructive suggestions, so Xiao Quan usually valued him a lot.

It is also for this reason that even if Lu Ming's failure this time made Xiao Quan lose a lot of face, Xiao Quan was only whipped, and even Lu Ming's military power was not deprived.

"The eldest prince's ability is really strong!" Lu Ming sighed in his heart, and he made a certain decision in his heart.

At this time, Lu Ming, who was lying on the ground, looked at Xiao Chengji with grateful eyes, if it weren't for Xiao Chengji's words just now, it would be impossible for Lu Ming to escape Xiao Quan's punishment so easily, and now with Xiao Chengji's words just now, Lu Ming will definitely not be held accountable in the future.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming's eyes were full of gratitude when he looked at Xiao Chengji.

Seeing the gratitude in Lu Ming's eyes, Xiao Chengji smiled slightly in his heart, this is exactly what he wants to see, Xiao Quan's desire for power has greatly decreased after he has advanced to the innate level, and he has gradually put the power in his hands down, and Xiao Quan's son is not just him, but there are seven of them, including three of him.

Although he is the eldest son and is also very popular with Xiao Quan, this does not mean that he can inherit Xiao Quan's rights 100%, and the two younger brothers behind him are still a great threat to the right.

Therefore, if Xiao Chengji wants to truly inherit Xiao Quan's full strength, he has to constantly win over the generals around Xiao Quan, and Lu Ming is the most important one among them.

From Lu Ming's eyes before, Xiao Chengji knew that he had won over Lu Ming.

Xiao Quan didn't notice the eye contact between his son and Lu Ming, he sat down in his position and groaned, and finally, he stood up directly and walked around the big tent, as if he couldn't make up his mind.

After walking dozens of times back and forth in the big tent, Xiao Quan asked Lu Ming directly on the ground: "Everyone, what do you say we should do now? Could it be that we have lost our troops and lost our soldiers, and the soldiers we ignored have died, so we can't stop like this? If we leave like this, what will be the face of our Black Wind Thieves? Will we Black Wind Thieves still be able to raise their heads here in Eighteen Sand Cities in the future?"

The big tent was silent, this time the battle was really not easy to fight, the easiest to attack the East Gate City was like this, and the city walls in other places were even more difficult to fight.

Only the east gate of Black Sand City is the widest, which can accommodate the attack of the lower army, and the other city gates can only accommodate five or six thousand troops at most, so to attack, it is only to send meritorious service to the enemy on the city wall.

Just like the south city gate on one side, the terrain there is not only extremely narrow, but also the ground is still potholes, large and small pits, from that side to attack the south city gate, it will definitely be more difficult than the east city gate, just fill the pits in front of the city gate, under the continuous archers at the head of the city, I don't know how many people will be killed and wounded.

What's more, it's not like here at the East City Gate, where tens of thousands of cannon fodder troops can be sent to fill the pit, and four or five thousand cannon fodder troops can be sent here at a time, which is considered good.

These cannon fodder troops are not enough for two consecutive attacks by the archers on the city wall.

The other city gates are similar, so if you want to capture Black Sand City, you can only attack the east city gate.

"City Lord, it seems that we can only dispatch our siege artillery troops, before because Black Sand City was our own city, so, in order to avoid huge losses on the city wall, we did not dispatch siege artillery troops, but now it seems that we can only dispatch!" Lu Ming made a suggestion and dispatched siege artillery troops.

"Siege artillery troops!" Xiao Quan hesitated.

The power of the siege artillery force is extremely strong, once dispatched, the damage to the walls of Black Sand City is subversive, perhaps, the East City Gate will collapse directly here, and behind him, there may be countless armies of Stormwind City, at that time, once Black Sand City loses the protection of the city wall, the Black Wind Thieves may be defeated by Stormwind City.

Thinking of this, Xiao Quan couldn't make up his mind in his heart.

Lu Ming understood why Xiao Quan hesitated, but now the form is urgent, and it is not the time to hesitate, so Lu Ming directly hit the hammer.

"City Lord, hesitate now, you must know that once we have been entangled with the enemy under the city walls for too long, Stormwind City behind us will soon send a large army to attack the geothermal heat inside the city walls, and at that time, our chances of defeat will be even greater. What's more, more than half of the military supplies in our troops have been consumed, especially the materials in the area of arrows, because the previous attack on Stormwind City and the previous battle have now consumed eight layers, and when the time comes, our archer troops will lose their combat effectiveness, and once the Stormwind Legion appears in front of us, we will ........ ”

Lu Ming didn't say any more, but the people in the big tent were all human spirits, so he knew very well the unfinished meaning of Lu Ming's words.

"Shhh.......hhh , really!" Xiao Chengji and Wan Haiquan gasped, they really ignored the consumption of military supplies.

"City Lord, use the siege artillery troops!"

"Father, use the siege artillery troops!"

The next moment, Xiao Chengji and Wan Haiquan suggested to Xiao Quan at the same time, their expressions were full of determination.

"Okay!" Xiao Quan agreed loudly, and then said with the same firm face: "Then do it, let's camp and rest tonight, and then tomorrow we will send siege artillery troops, and the whole army will attack and capture the East City Gate, and then, the bold enemies inside will be killed directly!"

"Kill a chicken and don't leave a dog!"

"Chickens and dogs don't stay!"

There were loud shouts of killing in the big tent..........

........................................

In the wounded barracks in Heisha City, Lin Ze had already checked the situation in the wounded barracks at this time, he walked out of the wounded barracks with a heavy face, before leaving, he instructed Zhang Jing to do his best to rescue those wounded, and the bodies of the soldiers who died in the war should also be properly buried, and they would be buried after the war, and their tablets would be included in the martyrs' shrine in Huangsha Town, and they would enjoy the sacrifice of incense forever.

The widows and children of these soldiers who died in the war can receive the pension food and rice issued by the army every month according to the roster, until these widows and children reach adulthood and the widows die, they will not be given a little pension in the middle, no matter how difficult it is, Lin Ze will support their family for a lifetime.

As for those disabled soldiers, Lin Ze will also be well accommodated.

If the disability is not serious, such as just losing a few fingers, a few toes, or a blind eye, Lin Ze asks for their opinions, and if they want to stay in the army, Lin Ze will arrange for them to go to the recruit camp to help train the recruits, or work in the logistics department.

If you are tired of the war and want to go home, Lin Ze will allow it, and when you leave the team, you will be given a generous retirement pension and a large amount of land, and most importantly, a disability pension every month.

As for why he didn't give all the disability money to this disabled soldier when he was discharged from the army, Lin Ze also considered it for the sake of these disabled soldiers.

The amount of disability money given by Lin Ze is too large, at least two hundred gold coins, such a large sum of money, it is easy to attract the peeps of others.

This soldier himself is already disabled, and if there are really robbers to break in, he will definitely not be an opponent.

The prying eyes of the robbers are one reason, and another reason is that Lin Ze is afraid that these soldiers will eat and use it indiscriminately after getting so much disability money, and they will use up the money in a short time, and in the end, food and clothing will become a problem.
