In Huayin City, Li Xin and the others had just returned with the things they got from Fuxi County. When he returned to the city, he deliberately asked everyone to walk through the street, so that all the people in the city could see the harvest this time.

The advantage of this is obvious, that is, everyone in the city knows that the Huashan army has won another battle and captured a lot. Moreover, under Li Xin's special publicity, everyone knew that a lot of food was brought back this time, so the hearts of the people in the city quickly settled down.

"It seems that your gains this time are indeed not small!" Wang Meng, who received the news, rushed over, and saw that everyone was busy loading things into the warehouse, and couldn't help but say to Li Xin.

"The harvest is there, but it's far less than what outsiders see, I'm here! It's just a trick, you know what I mean! It's a pity that the order of Nashiki County is too spineless, and after hearing that we have passed, he fled without saying a word. We didn't have to work hard to get this western county, and I think the idea of training troops with them is a complete failure! Li Xin pulled him aside and whispered.

"If you can't practice, you can't practice! However, your method is not bad, at least, if the people are stable, it will only be good for us. Moreover, Huayin County has been closed for a period of time, and many things in the city are in short supply, and under the soaring prices, it is inevitable that the people's minds will change and they will mourn. After you take this turn, I believe that those who want to fish in troubled waters should be able to dispel their thoughts! Wang Meng understood his thoughts as soon as he heard it, and couldn't help but agree.

"That's what I meant. How's it going over there? How long will our stuff last? Li Xin nodded, thought for a while, and then asked. This is what he is most concerned about, and if there is no way, I am afraid that many things will have to be planned separately.

"There is a lot of military rations stored in this Huayin City, thanks to the good timing of your previous attack on Huayin City, otherwise, these military rations may be directly transferred. Although it is impossible to hold on for a long time, if you save a little, it should be enough for Huayin City to hold on for two to three months, if you really need it, five months is already the maximum limit, but I hope it will not reach that extent! Wang Meng obviously made calculations in this regard, so he said it without thinking about it.

"I see, thanks to you, otherwise, I really don't know who to ask about these things! According to what we said, if you tell me about the food problem as soon as possible, I will find a way to deal with it as soon as possible! If there's no problem for the time being, I'll go to work on other things first! Li Xin nodded, and after finishing speaking, he turned around and left directly.

After leaving the warehouse, Li Xin returned to his residence, saying that it was his residence, but it was actually just a small room next to the county office. On weekdays, this is where he rests, not only him, but everyone else is almost the same treatment, after all, there are only such conditions now! If it were other armies, they might just grab a civilian house and live there, but the military regulations of the Huashan Army did not allow this.

After lying down and squinting slightly for a while, he got up again, rushed directly to the school field, and trained with everyone. Since the effect of training the troops has not been achieved, we have to think of other ways to train the soldiers under our command, and what is the best way, it is naturally a drill.

He divided the recruits and veterans into two groups, and then asked the veterans to play the role of the siege team to attack the west gate, and the recruits were divided into two groups and took turns to defend the city. However, for the sake of safety, those rolling logs and stones were not used, but their functions were just explained.

Li Xin personally supervised the siege of the city under the city, while Zhou Tong and Li Erhei each led 1,000 recruits to defend. Although this method is a far cry from real warfare, it is undeniable that it can serve the purpose of training, especially when no one has any concept of exercise.

This method is beneficial for both veterans and new recruits, veterans are used to defending cities, but they are not particularly good at siege, so letting them serve as the besieging party can just have the effect of training. The recruits have no experience in attacking and defending cities, but relatively speaking, defending a city is easier than besieging it, and the cost is not so great.

In this case, after a short period of training, the recruits may not be able to be proficient in siege, but at least they should have some experience in defending the city. And Li Xin and Zhou Tong were also constantly learning during this exercise, and they did not discuss the details with each other during the exercise, anyway, they all had their own strange moves, so that they could experience all kinds of emergencies on the battlefield.

For a while, except for the quiet place in the east city, the entire west city was full of noise, and you came and went above the city. If it weren't for the fact that the people had been put on the list in advance, I am afraid that the people in the city would have thought that Fu Qin's army had already fought at this time.

Li Xin and the others took turns to fight, from morning to night, without rest, after all, what if the enemy wants to fight at night? In short, the three battalions were replaced in turns, ensuring that each battalion could experience two different ways of besieging and defending the city. More importantly, through this kind of exercise, the discipline that they have practiced before is implemented, so that they can understand that the training on weekdays is not in vain.

This exercise has received good results, so that everyone has a better understanding of the siege and defense of the city, in the eyes of many recruits, the original enemy siege has nothing to fear. At least, in terms of morale, it has already played a great advantage, of course, when the real war comes, when they see the scene of blood splattering, whether they will feel this way, I am afraid is another matter.

The exercise also had an unexpected effect, that is, because the people in the city had gone through this kind of exercise, so when the Fu Qin army really attacked the city later, the people were almost very calm. Of course, that's another story.

The first exercise lasted two days and one night, and was not completed until the evening of the next day. Everyone was already very tired, and it was not difficult for Li Xin to do only half of the usual cross-country training for everyone, and then let everyone rest.

Li Xin returned to his room, originally wanting to fall asleep, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as his eyes narrowed, Tu Qi's voice came from outside. As soon as he heard this voice, Li Xin knew that something had happened, and the drowsiness that swept over him disappeared in an instant.

"General, there is an urgent military intelligence report from my subordinates!" Opening the door, Tu Qi, who was standing outside the door, whispered.

"Come in and talk about it!" Li Xin nodded and let him in.

"General, I just got the news that Fu Qin's side really sent troops to attack! Yang Qun, the assassin of Yuzhou, mobilized 4,000 soldiers and horses under his command into the east of the river, and together with the 1,000 soldiers and horses sent by Yin Chi, the assassin of the state, a total of 5,000 soldiers and horses will cross the river to attack the west of our city. In addition, he sent a thousand soldiers and horses into Tongguan, and he should attack our Dongcheng with Fu Yun! The army has already set out, and it is thought that it will be in three days! After entering the house, Tu Qi hurriedly said.

"As expected! The enemy is finally here! But it's okay to save us from waiting. If we delay the time, we may not be able to overtake them. We've been preparing for a while, and it's time for the enemy to see our strength, no matter who comes, let's see if they have this good pair of teeth! When Li Xin heard this, he didn't have the slightest surprise, just nodded slightly.

Li Xin immediately informed Zhou Fang of this important news, and for a while, everyone gathered in the county hall again.

"There's nothing to say, let's start when we went down the mountain, when have we been afraid! If they want to fight, then let's fight! "Zhou Fang looks really Top Gun at this time, and he is very determined.

"Haven't you been preparing all along? Since this is the case, then let's win another battle against him this time, and let them know how powerful our Huashan Army is! Li Erhei was grinning, and he looked very excited.

"Old Ma, Master Xu, have you done all the things used to defend the city?" Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Li Xin had nothing to worry about, and after thinking about it, he looked at the other two and asked.

"According to your orders, we have been rushing to build weapons, and the weapons can basically be done to each person, including those captured. And things like rolling logs and stones, thanks to your training method, have accumulated a lot in the city. The east and west gates have been reinforced. In addition, the things you mentioned have also been made in a few pieces, but not much, and relatively simple! Xu Fuzi looked through the books he was carrying, and then said.

"Very good, as long as we are united, then this time we will definitely be able to get through this difficulty. Once we get through this crisis, our Huashan Army will really gain a firm foothold, and when the time comes, it will be time for us to grow! Let's not talk about it, let's all go down and rest! Hearing this, Li Xin stood up, swept his eyes over everyone one by one, and said solemnly.

At the end of the meeting, everyone dispersed, and it seemed that there was no change in the entire Huayin City, but in fact, a tense atmosphere had slowly appeared, and everyone had begun to prepare secretly.

At the same time, in Tongguan, Fu Yun, who received Yang Qun's reply, was happily convening the generals to discuss the matter.

"Yang Yuanjun has promised to send troops, this time, we must take back Huayin City, and eliminate all those anti-thieves, I will break them into thousands of pieces to eliminate the hatred in my heart." When the personnel arrived, he directly announced the news.
