Chapter 1403: Reinforcements are hard to come

Shangguan Jian instinctively chose to believe Ye Shikai, in his opinion, everything Ye Shikai said often came true, even if it sounded ridiculous at first glance, even if everyone was not optimistic, but Ye Shikai could always use the results to "slap his face".

Since Ye Shikai also expressed this concern, then Shangguan Jian naturally couldn't help but pay attention to it, not to mention, the wolf clan lost four thousand people, this is a shameful battle, with their fiery personality, they will definitely come back, when the time comes, they will definitely bring more people, and the situation in the fortress is tense all of a sudden.

If Ye Shikai is given a month, he will definitely be able to guarantee that he will be able to train these thousand people into a sharp knife on the battlefield, and it will also be a "killer weapon" for them to contend with or even fight back against the wolf clan.

It's a pity that the wolf clan won't give them that much time.

"Then I'll report to Lord Han Hao and ask my superiors to increase the fortress. Shangguan Jian looked ahead, and could faintly see many wolf cavalry training in the racecourse, raising dust and violent, they practiced day and night, in order to take revenge.

"I've already reported, but you can rest assured, the fortress is thick and the city is high, and it is not something that can be broken by just relying on a large number of people, I think, five thousand people are enough to hold on. Ye Shikai carefully inspected the city wall, although Ma Peng resold arrows and wanted to fight against the water, but fortunately, the city wall was still strong, if there were no heavy siege equipment, it would not be able to break this city wall, and what the wolf clan lacked the most was equipment, especially large equipment.

"What should we do next. ”

"The training of the cavalry team cannot be stopped, step up preparations for war, in addition, the remaining 6,000 people must also take turns patrolling the fortress in batches, and the beacon tower must also pay more attention, if the wolf clan attacks the city, it must be to want a quick battle, the beacon tower wolf smoke together, reinforcements can arrive within two hours. ”

"Okay, that's all right, I'll go down and command it at once. Shangguan Jian nodded and said.

In the barracks.

"What, why can't reinforcements arrive? ”

"Brother Shangguan, don't be excited, now the wolf clan is also increasing troops, I heard that a batch of siege equipment has been added, the pressure on all defensive lines of the Great Wall is very great, and there are many more wounded soldiers these days, and they all need to be sent to the rear for treatment, it is really a tight war, and it is difficult to reinforce in the short term. Han Hao's tone was quite helpless, although Shifeng Fortress had a garrison of seven thousand troops and sophisticated equipment, but in the same way, this was the front line of the battlefield, and there were tens of thousands of wolf clan troops.

"The last general understands, then may I ask Lord Han when the reinforcements can arrive at the earliest. "Shangguan Jian is quite worried, the wolf clan has increased its troops, the defense line is tight, and it is difficult for reinforcements to arrive, this kind of thing is linked together, which is a very bad sign, fortunately, the formation of the cavalry team should be able to greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the troops.

"I'm afraid it's hard to say an accurate date, but don't worry, I will urge my superiors as soon as possible, His Majesty the First Emperor has ordered the transfer of 50,000 capital garrisons to the front line, they are all the elite troops of Great Qin, if they arrive, we can relieve a lot of pressure." ”

"Lord Han, Xianyang is thousands of miles away from here, and it will take half a month for reinforcements to arrive, and Lao Ye and I estimate that it won't be long before the wolf clan will launch a new attack, and if we don't have a little defense, we will only be slaughtered by others. When Shangguan Jian heard the news, he naturally didn't buy it, as the saying goes, it is difficult to save the fire from far water, and everything still has to rely on himself.

"Since the reinforcements are not coming, we should be ready to meet the battle, Shangguan, you pass on my general order, let the sergeants build high walls, and prepare more rolling stones and arrows. ”

"Wow. ”

"What, reinforcements can't arrive. Sure enough, when Shangguan Jian told Ye Shikai the news, he was really surprised.

"Well, I can't imagine that the battle situation is already so tense. ”

If a battle is compared to a game of chess, then each stronghold and army are chess pieces, and each chess piece has its own duties, and as for other war situations, they will not care about it, and they cannot take care of it.

In ancient wars, the battle line was long, and there was no fast means of communication, so even the soldiers on the front line may not have an understanding of the entire battle situation, in fact, in order to prevent the morale of the army from wavering, many generals concealed the real battle situation from the soldiers under the meeting, even if the war has shown defeat, the generals will lie about the victory, so that the soldiers below can maintain morale, in fact, Ye Shikai can understand very well, this is all tactics, if at this moment, Shifeng Fortress is surrounded by tens of thousands of wolf clans, Ye Shikai is afraid that he will do the same, otherwise if he tells the truth, it will only make the whole army collapse faster。

"The current situation is not bad, let's change with all changes, let's do it according to Lord Han's requirements first, build a high city wall, and prepare rolling stones. ”

"Okay, I'll just go and prepare, you're the commander of the cavalry now, so keep an eye on that side. Shangguan Jian was also concerned about the training of the cavalry, and although he was not a commander, he knew how important it was.

Ye Shikai came to the racecourse, the fortress was not big, and it was not easy to move such a large piece of land, but Han Hao still ordered that even if the sergeant slept a little squeezed, the scale of the training ground should be ensured.

"See Commander. Wan Qiyuan rode a war horse, galloped over, and dismounted in front of him.

"Wan Qiyuan, how is the training. Ye Shikai walked over slowly, Wan Qiyuan looked expressionless, Ye Shikai was very "in awe" of people like him, he usually doesn't talk much, but once he is on the battlefield, what he does can often shock people, that is, as the saying goes, "people don't talk much".

"Please rest assured, the commander, the training is going on as scheduled, everything is under control, if you give me another two weeks, I promise to train a tiger and wolf army. Wan Qiyuan nodded and said, Alimu had carefully introduced this person to Ye Shikai, usually silent, but he was not the kind of cowardly person, if he went to the battlefield, it was really "a bad wolf".

"I'm afraid there won't be so much time, Wan Jiyuan, if you are given a week, how far can you train. Ye Shikai's face was sad, and the clouds in the sky were condensed, as if it was a sign of an imminent war.

"This sergeant's riding skills should be trained well, but it is impossible to truly build combat power. Wan Qianyuan's analysis is very objective, and he does not boast about himself, which is also what Ye Shikai admires most about him.

"Is there any other way to do that? ”

"Back to the commander, riding and slashing skills cannot be practiced in a day, and there are many recruits among these cavalrymen, and a week is too short. ”
