Chapter 487: Persuasion
Now that the car that hit the door has been damaged, he is unwilling to let himself give up the siege of the city!
Handa's eyes swept viciously in the direction of the city gate tower, a grim smile on his lips, and he ordered without hesitation: "Pass the order, the first warrior to attack Baichuan City, this commander will reward him with 1,000 cattle and sheep!"
Hum! He didn't believe it if he was only a catty, he had an army of 200,000, and under the heavy reward, he couldn't break through a small Baichuan Pass!!!
Li Yunbao led everyone up to the front of the city tower, and watched the Tartars swarming in, not afraid of the power of the artillery at all, one fell, the next one took over, the next one fell, and the next one filled the void again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Tartars are crazy! This is the rhythm of relying on the large number of people, even if you fill in your life, you have to break the city!
She looked left and right, and saw that the artillerymen on both sides of the city wall were working tirelessly, and each fire was aimed at the most dense place of the Tartars, and each time it was able to harvest the lives of many people.
But even so, the enemy is still crazy and undaunted.
If it goes on like this, even if there are four artillery pieces to defend the city, it will be a drop in the bucket, not to mention, in the battlefield extending on the east and west sides, the battle on the north wall is also tight, and the situation is not optimistic.
Li Yunbao stared at the few remaining gunpowder balls for a while, and the lightning substitute captain who was guarding her spoke out in understanding.
"Madame, are you worried about the lack of gunpowder?"
Li Yunbao nodded in response, "Well, not only gunpowder, I'm afraid there won't be too many rolling stones and arrows." ”
Although Shirakawa Castle has a sufficient supply of weapons, the Beidi siege incident happened suddenly, and most of the troops went to Haijia to support, naturally, they will also take a large number of weapons.
Under the siege of 200,000 Beidi Tartars, it is conceivable that there will be a shortage of weapons left in the city, which is an inevitable result.
"Madam, you don't have to worry, when the Tartars attacked the city, General Zhang and sent scouts south to ask for help, presumably as long as we hold on for a while, there will be reinforcements coming!"
"I hope so!"
Li Yunbao, who has always relied on herself, will not pin her hopes on the reinforcements who are not sure whether they will come or not, she feels that she can't sit still, and after thinking about it, she gave an order to the lightning team next to her.
"All the lightning is there, follow my orders to gather at the city wall."
With an order, Li Yunbao took the remaining ninety-eight lightning bolts and quickly rushed down the city wall, and at the base of the wall, a group of people quickly assembled.
Looking at the ninety-eight faces in front of him, looking at the more or less, light or heavy scars on their bodies, Li Yunbao hardened his heart and issued an order.
"At present, we are in short supply of rolling stones and arrows to defend the city, and we don't know when the enemy will be able to retreat, let alone whether the enemy will retreat! Therefore, we have to be very attentive at all times, and now listen to my orders, and scatter them into the streets of the city in groups of two, and you will shout to me with all your might......"
After saying his request, seeing that everyone understood, Li Yunbao signaled them to act separately, and in an instant, the ninety-eight people who knew each other in groups of two dispersed.
Li Yunbao himself did not waste time, took out a thick cardboard from the space with people on his back, rolled it into a trumpet shape, and walked onto the street.
After the war, the gates on both sides of Shirakawa Castle were closed, and most of the people who went south in the city had fled for their lives, and now there were still a small number of people left in the city.
Some of these people are either because they are old and difficult to leave their homeland, or because they can't give up their hard-earned family business, or some poor families, for the poor, in fact, it is the same whether they can escape or not, without food and money, where can they flee to? Sooner or later, it's just a death!
The remaining people of Baichuan City are not like the people of Zhangye City, who are willing to cooperate with the soldiers to defend the city for a mouthful of food.
It was different here, when the great war began, all the people in the city were closed, so at this moment there was no sign of anyone on the streets, except for some sergeants carrying weapons and arrows.
Sighing, she still decided to give it a try, perhaps, there will be hot-blooded people who are willing to come out to help the army defend the city.
"Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, I know you can hear it, and I know that you are scared at the moment! But now that the Beidi Tartars are already in the city, if we are not afraid, the other party will let us go! If the city is broken, whether it is the soldiers defending the city or you in the city, none of us will have a way to live! I'm scared too! I'm afraid of death too! Think of the cruelty of the Tartars, think of the wives and children behind us, folks, we need your help, we need your support!"
After shouting so much in one breath, Li Yunbao paused slightly, swallowed her saliva, and continued to brainwash the people in the city.
"Folks, are you willing to watch the Tartars break through our homes? Can you just watch the Tartars kill my wife and children and rob me of my food? We don't need you to go up to the city walls to fight the Tartars, we just need you to get out of your homes and help our soldiers deliver weapons. As a great saint who is still full of blood, I believe that you are all good! I also believe that you will fight for the Great Sage and for the family behind you!"
Listening to the shouts from outside, the people who had been hiding in the house were moved.
There was a conversation in a small courtyard, "Daughter-in-law, you take care of the house, I'll help!"
"My son, you don't have to worry about the family, you can take your daughter-in-law with you, and the child will be handed over to me, the old woman!"
The man's mother understood the righteousness and resolutely asked her son to take her daughter-in-law with her, because she knew that once the city was broken, none of them would survive, so it was better to fight now.
The little brother who stayed in a shop hit his fist twice, "Damn, fuck it!" Sooner or later, I'm going to die, I'm a bachelor, and I'm afraid of a bear if I have no home or a mouth!"
"Old woman, you are at home, I'll help."
"Mother, let me go when you are old! The shouters have all said that there is no need for us to go up the city wall, just to help carry the weapons, there is no danger. ”
"A girl in the family can understand the righteousness so well, I am a man, am I still afraid? Brothers, let's do it together!"
Li Yunbao walked on this street, shouting back and forth tirelessly with a hoarse voice, and gradually there began to be movement in the houses on both sides of the street, some store doors were opened, and the people who stayed behind began to gradually walk out of their homes.
Looking at the people who began to gather, looking at the old and the young, Li Yunbao suddenly felt a little sour in his heart.
Li Yunbao assigned tasks to these gathered people, and divided these hundreds of people into three groups of people to act separately.
The young and strong were responsible for transporting rolling stones and oil to the city walls; the older and weaker, responsible for the house; The younger ones were scattered with the lightning team because of their leg and foot shortness, and searched for oil and wine from house to house in the city.
Of course, Li Yunbao himself was not idle, leading the two doctors left behind in the city, and began to go up the city wall, wandering among the soldiers and soldiers, and rescuing the wounded in time.
