So he looked at Yao Hui and said, "You arrange for those two generals to guard the security of East and West Chang'an for me, and let them patrol in the city, I will wait for General Wang Mingxuan here, and you two will be my deputies, we will go to light the beacon tower and observe the progress of the grassland iron cavalry, this is the key, I don't know if you have confidence?"

Yao Hui bowed his hand to Liu Hao, "Don't worry, my lord." I decided to defend Chang'an City with enthusiasm as my first priority. ”

Liu Hao nodded, motioned for him to get up, then looked at the soldiers and said, "You still have a key now, while General Wang Mingxuan has not yet arrived, you now divide the main soldiers on Shenwu Street into three classes, everyone is motivated now, but if the force value is too low, it is better to keep it for maintaining law and order."

The second-class went to the various gates for reinforcements, and the elite troops and mobile troops were left to me, and I took people to garrison which door was broken or which door was not closed. ”

As long as Chang'an City can hold on for a few days, the grassland iron cavalry will not be supplied, and they will not be able to take advantage, so they will naturally retreat, which is also the best means of defensive warfare, Yaohui naturally understands it, and takes the order to go.

Seeing that although the people under his command were more panicked, the momentum had risen after all, and the situation of panicking and even displacing and running everywhere in the most difficult situation had finally settled down.

Liu Hao also took a breath, Chang'an City, which made him feel extremely complicated, finally relieved the most difficult breath.

It's just that when I saw the real enemy and the real blood, and even the bones, I didn't know if this Chang'an City could be defended, that was the real test, and now it was only the first step.

Liu Hao decided to go to Shenwu Street, his horse was not too fast, the reason was that the beacon tower did not give the most clear information, obviously in less than two moments, he had done too much, that is to say, according to his estimate, there should be a moment before the grassland iron horse will completely come out of the Meridian Valley.

But if you want to have a moment left to let all the beacons be lit and close all the nine gates of Chang'an, Liu Hao couldn't help but shake his head, he entered from the west gate, in fact, he has seen very clearly, this Chang'an City has an extra layer of outer layer, the inner city and the outer city plus the original defense, in fact, has caused the nine gates to become the main channel for the centralized transportation of a large number of goods.

Whether it is shipping, or land transportation, including a large number of inns and car shops inside and outside the city, many things have blocked the entire road, including the city gate, and it is almost impossible to quickly close the city gate or even try to protect the city gate.

After all, Chang'an City is almost an undefended city now, this is because in the past few decades, as the only commercial center in the entire northwest, Chang'an City has not been attacked for a long time, even if the grassland alien race intends to attack Chang'an City.

Moreover, in this vicinity, it is planned to plunder the grass valley and strive for some compensation from the Li Tang Dynasty, but in fact, it is extremely difficult to completely threaten Chang'an City.

Therefore, after a long time, this city gate will say so, even if the beacon tower is lit, I am afraid it will not be closed.

The report that Liu Hao heard now is that although with the help of Jia Liu, 7 beacons have been lit, and there are still two beacons left unlit, but three of the 7 lit beacons cannot be closed.

One of the reasons why the door could not be closed was because there were too many merchants, mainly because the port and canal shipping and a large number of materials were difficult to transport to the city, and the panic caused by it also caused a fire, which has not been extinguished until now. The other two were simply horrible to death, and the gates of these two cities were completely damaged.

When Liu Hao first heard this kind of unfavorable news, he was angry, and now he is used to hearing it, but he has to find a way to remedy the broken door, and then he ordered the reinforcements to go to these two doors to remedy.

The remedy is to demolish the dwellings, directly start to build the gate, and block the entire gate with a brick wall, and the 30,000 grassland iron riders should be simply outfit, not carrying a large amount of materials and funds.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to have a large number of siege tools.

They calculated that Chang'an City could not be closed, or even if the door was closed, it was easy to use the charge of iron horses, coupled with the use of bows and arrows, to open and capture Chang'an City.

Therefore, there is no need for that kind of siege weapon, including any trebuchet, as well as large logs to hit the city gate, including all kinds of ladder equipment, which has to be said to be good news for Liu Hao.

Then, if you block the door and then defend it, you will have a certain advantage.

In case the gate can't be blocked, it will be an encounter, relying on the blood and courage of one side, and he believes that these people he mobilized should not be inferior to the steppe iron horse.

However, the newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, but it does not mean that those who can survive are not afraid of tigers, so the key problem is that I am afraid that I will have to give them a sample.

Another is to find a way to completely successfully block the door in this process, so that you can be vigilant against Chang'an City, and at the same time increase your confidence, so you must also have to go to the follow-up test yourself.

Of course, Liu Hao doesn't care about himself, he still takes this emperor to the top, he must let this emperor, who has endured for 20 years, really walk out of the imperial city and see what war is.

A large number of men and horses began to march, and the two gates began to increase the number of people to block the door, and Liu Hao drove the horse to Shenwu Street with the emperor to gather soldiers and horses, and it took about five or six minutes on the way, and in the process, he did a little bit of communication with the city lord.

The city lord suddenly asked Liu Hao during the march, "You still have two questions to ask me, otherwise my head will move, then I want to ask the general, can you ask in advance if you have any questions, depending on your posture, you may be very busy in the future, you have to defend the entire Chang'an City, at that time I may at most help you move bricks, so if you ask me questions, not only do you have no time, I'm afraid I don't have time." ”

He didn't speak politely, but Liu Hao didn't care at all.

As he rode forward, he said lightly, "I haven't thought about the second and third questions, so I'm not in a hurry to ask." Maybe when the war comes, I will let you move bricks, let you carry the corpses of the enemy, or let you shoot arrows with a bow and see if you can complete the second problem. ”

"This is my idea, but other than that, I may think more long-term than you think, you said that Chang'an City, Li Tang Dynasty, if you surrender to me and become my subordinate, you can do your best for me, anyway, I can make Chang'an City stronger, even stronger than the other three dynasties, do you have confidence? This question is not any of the three questions, but let's do some exchanges. ”
