。 I have to say that the first battle was won, and the emperor's reward was very rich. At this time, all the defenders learned the news of our army's victory, and for a time the entire capital fell into jubilation.
At this time, there was a faint light in the east, and everyone understood that a new day was coming, and this day would be even more cruel, and everyone knew that there were many people who would say goodbye to this world forever today.
The room brought up breakfast, a bowl of broth, a few steamed buns, and after eating breakfast early. By this time, the sky had already dawned, and the chaos in the distant enemy camp had come to an end, the frightened horses had been recovered by the knights, the bodies of the last of the dead had been carried to the camp, and countless cooking smoke had risen......
The sky is drizzling, and in autumn, the rain drops fall on the body, revealing a little coolness.
Except for the 3,000 men who went out to fight last night to continue to rest, the remaining 2,000 soldiers and horses are all focused on the city wall at this moment, ready to counterattack the enemy at any time.
Half an hour later, there was movement in the enemy camp. The first hundreds of scouts to come out, they took the large camp as the center, radiating in all directions; Immediately after that, about 100,000 troops drove out of the barracks, and in the middle of the army were huge ladders, artillery, wells and other heavy siege equipment, their purpose was not to attack Yongding Gate, but to formally encircle the capital, the previous cavalry encirclement was not so much a siege, but a surveillance, and once the 100,000 army formed an encirclement, the capital was really only birds could enter.
The troops did not leave the camp again, and in the battle last night, although the rebels had only lost a thousand men, and they did not seem to be wounded, they severely damaged their confidence, and made them not get rest in the second half of the night, and the light rain greatly restricted the use of firearms, so King Cheng did not rush to attack.
I can't help but feel that this is really a timely rain, our army has been soaked in a large amount of gunpowder, and it is still in the drying, so it cannot be used on a large scale, on the other hand, the rebels are just the opposite, they have a large amount of gunpowder, projectiles are collected, if once the war starts, our army will be in a very unfavorable situation, and this light rain has greatly offset this gap. Of course, I also understand that such a stalemate will not last long, once the camps are established, even if it is still raining, King Cheng will definitely order the siege of the city, the reason has been said many times before - time, King Cheng lacks time the most, he can't wait, he waits for one more day, the chance of failure will increase.
Two hours later, the gates came to report that the rebels had formed a siege and that barracks were being built.
At this time, the emperor led a group of civil and military ministers to Yongdingmen in person, and he wanted to get acquainted with his uncle Wang again.
Just after noon, the various gates reported that the enemy barracks had been built, but the bad thing was that the light rain that had been falling all morning suddenly stopped, and the sky cleared.
I was secretly worried, and said to Wei Dayong: "Tell me to go down, hurry up and eat, the enemy army is about to attack the city." ”
"Yes, sir!" Wei Dayong almost became the captain of my personal soldiers at this time, always guarding my side.
The emperor and a group of civil and military personnel did not leave, at this moment they are like ordinary soldiers, eating food that is difficult for them to swallow - many of them are still eating the army cauldron for the first time, when they are secretly frowning, they also have more respect for the soldiers who are always ready to defend their homes and the country, they hold meager salaries, eat unpalatable food, receive hard training and the eyes of others, and most importantly, they may be sent to the battlefield at any time, and every meal they eat can be the last meal... … What other reason do you have not to respect them?
