readx;?“ It's off, the price of oil has risen again, it's very expensive. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info??. ranen'" Liu Yu also felt a little bored with this result, the technology that was more than 700 years ahead of time, just a little use, it formed a crush, which greatly reduced the sense of achievement, and at the sound of an order, the generator stopped rotating, and all the light bulbs went out at the same time, leaving only a few torches on the low wall, emitting a little red light, swaying in the cold air.
From the discovery of the enemy, to the end of the battle, the whole process lasted less than an hour, how many enemies came outside, how many corpses were left, it is unknown, at this moment all the Song soldiers were immersed in shock, for their excitement, Liu Yu had no interest in participating, such a cold day, not to return to the warm bed, is irresponsible to himself.
When he woke up, he was surprised to find that it was foggy outside the window, and he couldn't see anything clearly, and when he got dressed and pushed the door open, the cold air mixed with a lot of coldness made his spirits lift, and it snowed.
As far as the eye can see, the earth has become white, pieces of snowflakes are falling like catkins, a layer of snow has accumulated on the street, and stepping on it makes a "clacking" sound, Liu Yu was stunned for a while, and his mind was not "the scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting" This kind of pride is not there, but suddenly remembered something, and ran in the direction of the dock.
Sure enough, as he expected, many sailors on the dock were there, holding a long bamboo pole to poke down, he approached and looked down, the sea under the embankment has some signs of freezing, the harbor is full of thin ice floating on the water, looking at the situation and the tendency to spread, artificial ice breaking is not a way, not to mention low efficiency, and it is easy to have accidents, look left and right, the one from Hai Si is also on the dock, but he is leading people to do things, and he didn't notice his side.
"There is no need to stab them, but call all the brethren who are not seriously wounded, and sail out of the harbor those ships that can be moved." Liu Yu walked over and patted his shoulder, and before the look of surprise on Du Tong's face disappeared, he continued to order: "All ships must not only bring water and food, but also arrows, oil and stone bullets. ”
"Where are you going?" Listening to him carefully, they couldn't help but ask.
Liu Yu didn't answer immediately, but beckoned him to come closer, and whispered in his ear, the latter's mouth suddenly opened wide, and he narrowly failed to close.
"What do you mean......"
"That's what it means, specific things, you go to Commander Xu, at sea, he listens to you, and when you go land, you have to listen to him, understand?"
At this moment, Liu Yu's tone was no longer like a bystander who was caught on errands, but his top boss, but Du Tong didn't feel any discomfort, listened to his orders, and almost came out of the self-proclaimed subordinates, but fortunately, he reacted quickly, so that he did not lose face in front of his subordinates.
After a while, Zheng Tong, who was coming out of the house and planning to inspect the low wall, was surprised to find that from the town to the vicinity of the wharf, it was suddenly lively, and the cavalry of the brigade led the precious military horses, fully dressed, as if they were going to pull out, but looking at the direction they were traveling, they were heading towards the dock, which suddenly made him confused.
Just when he was about to go to the dock to have a look, he happened to meet Liu Yu coming from there, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and by the way, he asked the doubts in his heart, and this matter can be guessed to be related to the latter.
"Fu Shuai, what's wrong? Xu Laosi is going to attack? ”
"No, the harbor is going to freeze, and the remaining ships of the navy will sail out to sea immediately, just to carry the cavalry, and there is another use." Liu Yu waved his hand and did not tell him the truth, not because it was a matter of trust or distrust, but because he felt that it was unnecessary.
For his answer, Zheng Tong seems to understand whether he understands or not, but since it involves the war, he will not ask the bottom of it, if he needs to know, Fu Shuai will definitely tell him, not to mention that it has nothing to do with him, something that has nothing to do with him, what is there to care about.
The direction of the two people is the same, both are the direction of the low wall, Liu Yu came to the outskirts of the town with him, climbed a wall, looked outside, only to find that the corpses outside have been covered by heavy snow, only a small section of the arrow exposed in the snow can indicate what happened last night.
It seems that overnight, the entire south bank of Huaishui was covered with wind and snow, and the road from Chuzhou City to Yukou Town was not very easy to walk, so that the snow on the road would become slippery, and there was no place to stop along the way, which affected the march of the team.
"No, tell them to hurry up, and they must arrive today."
He took the main army, and on the second day after the departure of the hundred slaves, he set off as soon as possible, but he didn't think that it was snowing heavily, so he quickly rushed to join the rest of the plan, how much was discounted, looking at this formation, the snow was only afraid that it would get bigger and bigger, and it couldn't be delayed for a moment.
What worries him even more is that he has walked more than half the way, and he has not received a single person who has reported the news, is it not enough for the attack on Yukou Town for one day and one night? It was hard for him to believe the result, and he hoped that they had forgotten about something.
When he left Chuzhou, he also played a small trick, and did not dismantle the tents in the camp, from a distance, the camp should be as usual, of course, there are no figures, but the Song people generally do not get very close, he is confident, this will make the enemy's reaction more sluggish.
Nearly 50,000 troops trudged hard in the snow, they were not as light as the previous army, and they brought almost everything they could bring, except for food, but this was because there was no surplus food in the army, Yukou Town was his last hope, if things did not go well, retreating to the north bank of Huaishui would become the only choice.
The arrival of this heavy snow will make Huaishui enter the freezing period, as long as it continues, it will not take a day or two, Huaishui will no longer be an obstacle, and at that time, he will no longer need a pontoon bridge to maintain the supply line, which is also good news.
Instigating Du's heart was up and down, he had never been so chaotic, and this feeling was maintained until the sergeant in front brought someone over, making his brain freeze all at once, and all of them froze into a ball.
More than 30,000 foot soldiers, plus thousands of cavalry, did not take that small town, and even the edge of the people was not touched, what is the reason, a temporary pile of low walls? Or is it a wide and deep ditch? In his opinion, these are just excuses, and in the process of conquering the world, the Yuan people have encountered countless difficulties, but each one is greater than they described.
"Tell them to stay put, and when Ben Shuai arrives, they will see what kind of things it is, and they will not dare to enter an inch."
There was white gas in his mouth, and the words he said were as cold as ice, so that the sergeant who came to report the news did not dare to raise his head, and turned away in response.
