The book is picked up again.

Hearing this, Kuai Yue replied with a little helplessness on his face: "Lord, I don't have iron tools in my hands anymore, and I can't cast a sledgehammer anymore." ”

"Forehead......" After Liu Biao heard Kuai Yue's words, he immediately froze.

Their first weapon against the enemy is a sledgehammer, and if they don't have it, how do they deal with the enemy's sturdy armor?

In other words, although they have solved the enemy's bow and arrow problem, they still can't hurt the enemy.

After thinking of this, Liu Biao turned his head to look at Huang Zhong, with some complaint in his eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that Huang Zhong rushed to the city wall with their only 30,000 sledgehammers, and put all of these sledgehammers in Luoyang City, why would they be in such a predicament?

"......" After Huang Zhong saw Liu Biao's eyes, his old face turned red and he quickly lowered his head.

Indeed, if it weren't for the fact that he had brought all the sledgehammers with him in the siege just now, they would not have been without weapons against the enemy by now.

Now that so many sledgehammers have been lost, it is difficult to recast them, because casting them consumes too much iron.

Each sledgehammer requires one or twenty pounds of iron, and if it is light, it is useless, and if it is too light, it will not hurt the enemy at all!

In other words, Huang Zhong's failure just now directly threw at least 400,000 catties of iron on the city wall, which is simply a loser!

"Huh...... Don't be too harsh on General Huang, he doesn't want to fail, as for the iron weapon......"

Speaking of this, Kuai Yue rubbed his temples a little helplessly, and said: "Just let a certain family think of a way, it's really not possible, I'll collect all the iron tools in the army, including iron pots and the like, and cast them into sledgehammers." ”

As he spoke, he changed his words and said, "Okay, I won't wait to talk about these headaches, let's talk about exciting things."

The subordinates just got a good news through General Huang's narration - the enemy's rocks and rolling logs and other defensive equipment are not many!

It can be seen from the offensive and defensive battle just now that General Huang is about to climb the city wall, but the enemy still has not used rocks and logs to defend!

It can be seen that the enemy either does not have these fortifications, or has other plans.

However, according to the subordinates, there is a high probability that the enemy really has no city defense equipment, so it is useless. ”

"Oh? That's great news! After Liu Biao heard Kuai Yue's words, his eyes lit up,

Truth be told, if the enemy had no weapons to defend the city and only bows and arrows, it would have been much easier for them to storm the city.

In siege warfare, the most disgusting thing is that the enemy gets a large number of defending equipment, and then throws it down without his life, so the price that the besieging side has to pay is too great!

And as long as the enemy has no equipment to defend the city, it is a competition in numbers, whether the men and horses are good or not, strategy, and equipment.

In terms of numbers, Liu Biao has an advantage, whether the people are good or not, Liu Biao has a disadvantage, can make a tie in strategy, and has a disadvantage in equipment, and finally compares it, although Liu Biao is still slightly inferior, it is much stronger than when he first attacked the Tiger Prison.

After thinking of this, Liu Biao nodded with satisfaction, and instructed Kuai Yue: "Since this is the case, then this matter will be handed over to Xenohe and Hansheng, how to cast equipment and how to attack, you two discuss it, the old man is a little tired, so go back and rest first." ”

Liu Biao is indeed old, although he has been sitting in the carriage all the way, but after these few days of running, he is still extremely tired and is about to support it

went down.

"No!" After Kuai Yue responded, he said: "Thank you for your trust, my subordinates will definitely handle this matter properly, and I won't let my lord worry about labor anymore." ”

"......" Huang Zhong's face was speechless, all the good words were said by Kuai Yue, what else could he say? He could only hold his fists and echo: "The same is true for subordinates (hmm...... Shouldn't there be a sentence here: "I'm the same"? (???) ）”

"Hmm" Liu Biao glanced at Huang Zhong and nodded nonchalantly, then turned around and walked towards the tent that had been set up.

After Liu Biao left, Huang Zhong immediately asked Kuai Yue impatiently, "Mr. Xenodu, how do you solve the iron matter?" ”

Although Kuai Yue had fooled Liu Biao just now, Huang Zhong could hear that Kuai Yue's words were not true, as if he was scrupling about something.

Now that Liu Biao is gone, he has to ask a detailed question, otherwise he will not be sure.

"Alas......" Kuai Yue sighed helplessly when he heard this, and then rubbed his eyebrows. said: "So far, a certain family will not hide it from you, a certain family does have a way to solve the iron matter, but this method is indeed a little inhumane, and it will even cause infamy, and a certain family is afraid that the lord will not agree, so he didn't say it." ”

"Oh?" Kuai Yue's words aroused Huang Zhong's curiosity, and after he was shocked, he asked, "I don't know what Mr. Xenodegree's method is?" Can you tell the old man? ”

"Alas......" Kuai Yue let out a long sigh again, and said, "Of course, you have to tell General Huang about this, because this matter is either for you or for a certain family!"

There is indeed a shortage of iron in our army, and even if all the weapons of the soldiers are gathered, it is not enough, so... So ......"

Speaking of this, Kuai Yue's face turned ruthless, gritted his teeth, and said, "So I might as well wait to directly loot the iron weapons of the surrounding states and counties!" ”

"This !!" After Huang Zhong heard the words of Leapfrogging, his pupils shrank, and his face was full of shock, he didn't expect Kuai Yue to come up with such a bad idea!

Kuai Yue's meaning is better called "robbing the iron tools of surrounding states and counties", but if it is not good, it is to rob the common people!

Li Zhi is not a fool, how could he place such a strategic material as iron in other states and counties in Sizhou when he knew that he was going to give up Sizhou?

When he gave up Sizhou, he gathered all the materials that could support the enemy.

In other words, even if they dig three feet into the ground, it is impossible to find iron in Sizhou!

And if you want iron, there is only one way, and that is to directly rob the homes of ordinary people, whose kitchen knives and other objects are made of iron and can be smelted into hammers.

But if they do, their reputation will be completely ruined!

Can you believe that a bunch of soldiers will get to a farmer's house and take nothing but their kitchen knives?!

It's!

In these years, the only difference between a soldier and a bandit is that one is official and the other is local, in other words, a soldier is a bandit with an official name!

Once the soldiers were allowed to look for iron tools, they would never just look for iron tools!

In the process of searching, they will definitely give themselves some benefits, such as picking up some gold and silver treasures, harming a good family woman, or something!

"Hehe......" Looking at Huang Zhong with a shocked face, Kuai Yue certainly knew what he was thinking, and after laughing dryly, he patted him on the shoulder and said dryly: "General Huang doesn't have to be like this, as long as I wait for the restraint soldiers."

pawn, there will not be things like General Huang thought.

Besides, these soldiers were all trained by General Huang, and a certain family believed that General Huang would definitely be able to restrain them. ”

"......" Huang Zhong's face was full of weirdness after hearing the words of Leapfrog.

He himself didn't believe in these soldiers he had trained, where did Kuai Yue get such great confidence?

But then he thought of something again, and his face suddenly turned blue!

Kuai Yue's words just now reminded him that if something happened to the army because of discipline and caused infamy, then the first person to bear this infamy would be Huang Zhong!

In other words, once these soldiers did something hurtful when they were looking for iron weapons, Liu Biao and Kuai Yue could completely get out of this matter and throw all the infamy on Huang Zhong's head!

After "......" said this, Huang Zhong opened his mouth to do something, but in the end he still didn't say a word!

Because iron is really needed now, and if they can't find it, then they are defeated!

Therefore, in order to win, Huang Zhong must bear this infamy!

After thinking of this, Huang Zhong sighed decadently, and said in a hoarse voice: "That's it, the old man admits it, this matter is so decided, the old man will restrain them." ”

After finishing speaking, Huang Zhong turned his head and walked in the direction of the barracks.

"......" looked at Huang Zhong, who was a little rickety, and a trace of unbearability flashed in Kuai Yue's eyes, but it was finally replaced by firmness.

Now it really takes someone to bear the infamy, and the person who bears the infamy can only be Huang Zhong!

Because Kuai Yue is not qualified to bear this kind of infamy at all.

He is just a mere strategist, and although his official position is not small, it is really nothing compared to Huang Zhong, the coach.

And Liu Biao and Liu Yan, who are higher than Huang Zhong, must not be burdened with infamy, so Huang Zhong, the coach, is the most suitable to carry the black pot by counting!

After thinking of this, Kuai Yue's face became firm, and he turned around and walked towards this Liu Biao's camp.

Although Liu Biao has made it clear that he doesn't care about the affairs here, as a subordinate, Kuai Yue feels that he can't hide such an important matter.

When he came to the camp, he found that Liu Biao was drinking tea on the soft couch at this time, and when he saw Kuai Yue coming in, he asked lazily: "Xenodu, are you done with your business?" ”

"Hmm" Kuai Yue nodded, came to Liu Biao, and whispered to Liu Biao the strategy he had just told Huang Zhong.

"......" After Liu Biao listened to Kuai Yue's words, his eyes narrowed and he fell into deep thought.

"Alas......" It took a long time for him to come back to his senses, and after a long sigh, he pretended to be helpless and said: "Originally, this infamy should have been borne by the old man."

But everyone in the world knows that the old man is not familiar with military affairs, even if the old man wants to bear this infamy, others will not believe it!

So I can only grieve Hansheng, and when I go back, the old man will definitely compensate him well. ”

For Liu Biao, he doesn't care who bears the infamy, as long as he doesn't carry it!

The words he said to Kuai Yue just now were just pretending, if he really wanted to bear this infamy, he was the first to refuse!

"The Lord is a benevolent man!" Although I don't know if Kuai Yue believes Liu Biao's nonsense, but on the surface, it seems that he believes it, and he admires it!
