Mr. Wen said: "It seems that the reinforcements of the Persian army have indeed entered the city of Great Wei. This time, our plan was very well designed, but in the end, it fell short. ”

This is something that everyone expected.

If the Persian army came to support with 50,000 or 60,000 troops at once, then even if a reserve army of 10,000 came to Jindong City, it would not necessarily be able to win, and both sides might suffer heavy casualties in the end.

Huazi sat next to Wutong and accompanied Wutong, who also had several wounds on his body, but they were all skin injuries that could heal after a few days of rest.

It was getting darker and darker, and the snow was still falling outside, and it seemed to be getting heavier.

Everyone didn't eat for a day, so Wei Yunxuan asked the logistics army to cook, and gave some wine and dry food to the soldiers defending outside to ward off the cold.

There was originally dry firewood left by Han Xuening and them in the cave, and the soldiers piled the dry firewood together and burned it and began to cook.

After lighting the firewood and grass, the cave suddenly lit up, and the heat from burning the firewood and grass made the cave warm.

Some of the ice outside the cave was melted by the heat of the fire and began to drip water.

Han Xuening asked a few guards to use jars to collect melted water, and in addition, the clean snow outside was collected in jars and bowls, and placed by the fire, so that the snow in the bowls would melt into water, and everyone would be able to drink water in a while.

Han Xuening asked the logistics soldiers to count, how long can the food last?

After some inspection, the logistics soldiers came to report that the food could last for a month at most.

Hua Zi said: "If we are trapped here for a month, then we will run out of food, and we will have nothing to eat. ”

"Have you eaten all the horses that died in battle?" Han Xuening asked the logistics soldier.

"They are all buried in the snow under the mountain, but the Persian army is under the mountain, and we can't go down at all." The logistician replied.

In the afternoon, the evacuation was too anxious, and many things were not picked up in time.

For now, we can only wait for reinforcements to come.

If reinforcements come to relieve the siege within a month, they will be able to hold up their food.

Ma was probably asleep, and Mr. Wen walked out of the tent and secretly told Wei Yunxuan about Ma's general injury.

After Wei Yunxuan heard this, his face was very ugly.

Han Xuening and Hua Zi walked over and asked the two of them what was going on? Is the horse generally seriously injured?

Wei Yunxuan said: "Roughly two arrows in the body have been shot at the side of the heart, although it is not life-threatening now. However, Mr. Wen looked at it and said that if the wound was shaken, perhaps the bleeding around the wound was severe, and the horse could probably be in danger at any time. ”

Han Xuening didn't expect that Ma would be so seriously injured, and she didn't feel good in her heart.

On the Zhao family building's side, Zhou Damei was still waiting for the horse to go back.

If the horse probably never goes back, Zhou Damei will have no one to take care of her. Wei Yunxuan lost a loyal general.

"I hope General Ma can make it through!" Han Xuening also sighed.

"General Ma must be fine, he hasn't married yet." Huazi was also uncomfortable.

In the era of war, even the people around you don't know what the fate will be tomorrow.

The meal was ready, the logistics soldiers distributed hot meals to everyone, and everyone ate the hot meals, and their bodies warmed up.

Wu Tong also ate it, and after eating, his physical condition and spirit were much better.

The horse had probably not woken up yet, and Mr. Wen told the logistics soldiers to keep food for the horse and eat it when he woke up.

In the entire cave, there were more than 60 people. Except for Wei Yunxuan, Mr. Wen, Han Xuening and other generals, half of them were wounded.

Outside, there were more than twenty sailor soldiers and archers guarding the way up the mountain and the traps and traps on the mountain, and Wei Yunxuan and them together were less than ninety people.

With more than 5,000 troops, plus more than 10,000 soldiers who surrendered, there are now less than ninety left.

The battle was a heavy casualty, and if no reinforcements arrived in a month's time, they would not have survived.

After the horse woke up, the two girls, Mu Xiaoyun and Zhong Xiaozi, went over to take care of him and feed him.

After eating, Ma's face was much better, but his voice was still a little weak.

At the wound, Mr. Wen has been given hemostatic medicine, and there is no blood flowing out for the time being.

At night, there were soldiers guarding the fire in the cave to prevent it from being extinguished. In this way, the people in the cave can be warmer.

Early the next morning, Han Xuening went out to see the situation under the mountain.

In the morning, the snow outside had stopped, and the bottom of the mountain was densely packed with tents set up by the Persians, and thousands of tents of the Persian soldiers surrounded the whole mountain in the middle.

Outside the tent, there were soldiers who took turns to guard, and the archers were ready at any time, looking at this momentum, they wanted to besiege the people on the mountain.

Soon half a month passed, and the soldiers who came down the mountain did not attack, but just surrounded them tightly.

In the past half a month, reinforcements from Jindong City have not yet arrived. As everyone knows, reinforcements may not come.

The queen had wanted to kill them, and it was impossible for her to send the city defenders to rescue them.

Han Xuening said to Wei Yunxuan: "Lord Wang, there is a tunnel in the cave, if the reinforcements really don't come, we can only go out through the tunnel." ”

Mr. Wen said: "Miss Xue Ning is right, there are still tunnels in the cave, otherwise in a month, we will starve to death here." ”

Wei Yunxuan thought for a while and said, "However, roughly my brother's injuries are relatively serious, and he can't move around, if he destroys the blood vessels, hemorrhage will be troublesome." ”

Wei Yunxuan was mainly worried about Ma's safety, and he didn't want Ma Ma's accident to happen.

"Lord Wang, we can ask the soldiers to carry General Ma to evacuate here!" Han Xuening proposed, "The soldiers carefully carry it with a bed frame made of wood, and slowly go out into the tunnel, and General Ma will be fine." ”

Wei Yunxuan thought for a moment and said, "Right now, it's the only way to go. ”

Then, he ordered Hanako Jian and a few guards with torches to go into the secret passage to investigate.

Hanako Jian took five or six people to explore the way first, and an hour later, Hanako Jian returned and came to report.

"Lord Wang! Oh no, the secret passage collapsed, and all the way out was blocked. ”

The outside was surrounded, and the secret passage also collapsed, Wei Yunxuan suddenly sighed: "Could it be that God wants to destroy my Great Wei Kingdom?" Now there is no way to retreat, and the bottom of the mountain is surrounded. Can you only wait for death on the mountain? ”

Han Xuening knew Wei Yunxuan's current mood, on the one hand, his old subordinate, his horse like a brother, was roughly fatally injured and could lose his life at any time. On the other hand, there was no way out and no way back, and of course he was anxious.

Han Xue thought for a while and said, "Right now, we can only let the logistics soldiers dig up the collapsed tunnel, as long as we dig it through, we will be saved." If we can't dig it for half a month, we have to go out, and it's a little difficult. ”

Mr. Wen hurriedly ordered more than a dozen logistics soldiers to participate in digging tunnels, a few wounded could not fight, it was still possible to dig tunnels, and they volunteered to participate in the ranks of digging tunnels.
