Chapter 1533: Build the city wall quickly
Seeing that the master was angry, everyone hurriedly pleaded, but General He was blunt, but he was loyal and begged to be let go.
General He, who was kneeling on the ground, broke out in a cold sweat just now, and now he began to play the sensational card, and he choked up with his hands: "Your Majesty, your subordinates are reckless, thanks to Your Majesty's refusal to give up, we have today." Foolish loyalty is not advisable, subordinates should judge themselves, and please take care of Your Majesty. ”
Zhu Mu hurriedly knelt down and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, General He is loyal and brave, and when he is ambushed on all sides, you can't kill the generals, think twice about Your Majesty!"
"I hope Your Majesty thinks twice!" everyone said in unison.
Tuoba Tao naturally either really wanted to kill the general, or was besieged, and in the end he fell for Rouran's tricks, and there was nowhere to vent the evil fire in his stomach. At this time, he stared at General He, his eyes could burst into flames, and his angry little face turned pale.
In the end, he was still younger, Mai Xiaoji shook his head slightly, and said: "Brother Tao, what General Zhu Mu said is very true, the enemy is current, it is better to hold a pre-war meeting as soon as possible." ”
Yes, a meeting!
How can there be leisure and leisure, set up a military tent again, pull up the curtains, gather a few generals, and the pre-war meeting was held in this crude environment.
The attitude is still relatively consistent, everyone feels that they don't know the true strength of the other party yet, although their side has 50,000 elite cavalry, they can't force a fight with Rouran.
Moreover, the ground was rugged, and the cavalry did not have an advantage.
After discussing and discussing, Tuoba Tao immediately ordered to camp on the mountain, and asked the soldiers to immediately collect stones nearby, and they must build a high wall for defense in the shortest possible time.
General He took the initiative to take over this work and actively prepare for war.
The efficiency of 50,000 men is quite impressive, however, the enemy forces are coming from all sides and will not leave them much time. General He was busy, his face was full of ashes, and his voice was hoarse, but he could take care of the west, but the wall at the east end fell.
Tuoba Tao was studying the battle plan with several generals, and Mai Xiaoji saw that this General He was really pitiful, and came to him with his hands behind his back. When General He saw Mai Xiaoji walking to him, he was very uncomfortable, and wiped his face with his hand, heh, he couldn't see it, there was a tiger standing in front of him.
"General He, this speed is a bit slow! Moreover, everyone over there has fallen, and they don't explain. McXiaoji said.
"Although there are many rocks, there is no time to pry the large ones. General He said truthfully.
"Although this mountain is not big, there are many stones, why can't you pick a suitable size?" asked Mai Xiaoji rhetorically.
General He's face was cold, thinking that Mai Xiaoji was here to find fault, and hummed: "My subordinates have said a long time ago, it's too late!"
"General He, in fact, when looking for mountains and rocks, you can't just look at the surface ones, some are buried in the soil, and they come out as soon as they are pulled, maybe that's what you want. McBecky nodded.
General He scratched his head, although this was reasonable, he really didn't want to repeat it a third time, he really didn't have time. But I heard Mai Xiaoji say again: "I also grew up in the mountains when I was a child, why don't I go and find it, how about you take someone to move?"
"Will you help me?" General He said incredulously.
"Wrong!" Mai Xiaoji shook his finger and sneered: "I'm just helping myself, the siege is not strong, and I can't escape." ”
What Mai Xiaoji said was in his heart, the flight function has a limited duration, and it may not be able to fly over the enemy. General He was skeptical, but he still asked people to follow Mai Xiaoji, and when he encountered a suitable stone, he immediately carried it over.
Under the perspective shot, the rocks were either dug up or pried off, and when they were transported to General He, he was so shocked that his mouth was wide open and he couldn't close it for a long time. The pieces seem to have been cut, the right size, and the shape is uniform.
Still stunned for what to do, General He hurriedly pushed the unstable wall down and replaced it with newly transported stones. Instead, those rubbles can be left as weapons, and they will be rewarded!
Standing on the top of the mountain, Mai Xiaoji also infinitely sighed that there were many people and great strength, and in less than half a day, the army had built a strong city on the hillside. The walls are naturally not as strong as the king's capital, but they are condescending, and the situation below is unobstructed. What's more, the Rouran army didn't expect this move, and the preparations for the siege were obviously insufficient.
Tuoba Tao inspected the new city accompanied by the generals, and was amazed, and was even happier when he learned that it was Mai Xiaoji who helped find suitable stones, and said excitedly: "Brother Mai, with your help, it will add a little chance of winning." ”
"Brother Tao is polite!" Mai Xiaoji was a little bitter in his heart, because the original odds of winning were only thirty percent, and three plus one was not much.
The sky began to darken, in fact, as early as half an hour ago, the army of Rouran had already arrived here, and the army in the north wanted to attack the mountain for a while, but finally chose to retreat, and then camped less than half a mile away.
The archers had long been prepared, hiding behind the stone walls and aiming down the hill from the gaps.
Judging by the numbers, the number of opponents is no less than 100,000, and there may be reinforcements. Tuoba Tao is trapped here, of course Rouran has to make a desperate bet, and he has to drop a group of people to die here.
The advantage of cavalry is that it advances quickly and has strong combat capability, but the disadvantage is precisely the insufficient supply of grain and grass. Mai Xiaoji estimated that the other party did not want to lose too many troops, so he did not rush up the mountain and wanted to fight a war of attrition.
The siege of the city, trapped in it is still a ruined city!
Tuoba Tao was also a little impatient, and held meetings again and again to discuss. I have to say that at such a critical juncture, the soldiers are still very loyal, and no one chooses to retreat.
Mai Xiaoji really sweated for Tuoba Tao, he was afraid that the Rouran army would not be able to wait, if they launched a crazy attack, the temporary city might not last long.
The ancient war was very cruel, there were corpses all over the field at every turn, and rivers of blood flowed, this scene, just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle. It's miserable, it's terrifying!
Mai Xiaoji looked up to the sky and sighed, shook his head and went back to his tent to rest. Seriously, he came here only to deliver medicine, not to change history for his achievements, and the confrontation between the two armies really has nothing to do with him.
But Mai Xiaoji can't take it lightly, always pay attention to the movement outside, and take a photo from time to time, which will affect sleep.
The army besieged the city and was embattled, and the cavalry team led by Tuoba Tao showed good quality, everything was in order, and the generals performed their own responsibilities and led elite detachments to guard the eight directions of the city.
In the distance, a bonfire was also lit in the Rouran military camp, and the aroma of barbecue seemed to be smelled in the air, and there were folk songs sung by the Rouran soldiers in the ears, which was a psychological tactic to achieve a complete victory with the least losses.
In short, Mai Xiaoji felt that no matter how fierce the war was, it had nothing to do with him, just drank a cup of tea and ate a few meals, how much favor could he owe.
As for the salary that Tuoba Tao promised, it is not uncommon for him to be worth now. Besides, it must be given when the class teacher returns to the court.
By then, Mai Xiaoji had already completed his task and returned to Binjiang's office to drink tea.
