The disparity in strength is huge, and the strength is incomparable.

Once the war starts, I am afraid that it will be difficult to hold on for even an hour.

"Zijing, if you don't have faith, how can you defend this city? It's really not good, I'll change people. Xu Dingdao.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will definitely hold Nanchang."

"There is no joke in the army, if you can't stand it, don't blame me for being ruthless. Go and prepare, the enemy is coming. Xu Dingdao.

"No."

Lu Su left with a sad face.

After he returned to the barracks, an emergency meeting was held.

Brainstorm to defend the city.

Cheng Pu said: "Mr. Zijing, the last general thinks that no matter how good the arrangement is, it is useless. The enemy's artillery is too strong, and in a few rounds of bombardment, our arrangement will come to naught. ”

"Ugh...."

What Cheng Pu said is exactly what everyone wants to say.

"Tens of thousands of enemy troops came to Nanchang, and we couldn't hold it..." Zhu Ran, the former subordinate of Sun Jian, said.

"That's it!"

Lu Su was a little annoyed and said, "I asked you to come up with ideas, you look at you... One by one, they know how to pour cold water. ”

"Your Majesty has given me a death order to hold Nanchang for three days. For three days, not even a bird could fly in. I'll put the ugly words in front of me. If you can't keep it, you have to accept military law if you are below yourself. ”

.......

The congregation will be silent.

Gongsun Zhan suddenly said: "Our strongest is still the heavy armored cavalry, but the cavalry is good at field warfare, not good at defending the city. It is better to wait for the enemy to attack the city, and then we will send cavalry out of the city to fight. ”

Lu Su said: "Your Majesty said that the cavalry can't move. It was used as a last resort to break through. ”

"Huh?"

In addition to the cavalry, there are more than 10,000 infantry troops left.

It's even more difficult to defend the city.

The people who had no faith now have no faith.

"It was a mistake to come to you. I will not consult with you any more, but will defend the city according to my own way. Lu Su picked up the command pole and pointed to the map behind him: "This is the whole map of Nanchang City..." ”

"Once the outer city is lost, we will retreat to the urn city, the inner city..."

Lu Su finished arranging.

All the generals have a weak response.

The next day.

The enemy's cavalry and hundreds of military vehicles rushed to the outside of Nanchang.

No one expected that the enemy would come so quickly.

Xu Ding personally visited the city tower to observe the situation outside.

Guo Jia raised his hand and said: "The enemy's strength is not much, if we send cavalry to attack the enemy camp, can we win?" Because after defending the city, we will definitely break through the siege, and if we do not destroy their mobile forces, I am afraid that it will be difficult to highlight the enemy's pursuit range. ”

"It's too risky..." Xu Ding did not agree.

The Admiral also thought it was too risky. Once entangled, it is difficult for us to even get out. Zhao Yundao.

"I know that, too, but what can I do now? When the enemy's large forces arrived, we were even more passive. I'm worried... 5,000 heavily armored cavalry, afraid that they can't break out. Guo Jia wanted to persuade Xu Ding again, so he simply returned to Xiangnan to garrison.

But he knew that Xu Ding would not agree, so he didn't say much.

........

A few hours later.

The enemy's follow-up troops arrived.

A full 50,000 army surrounded Nanchang City.

"Before, Feng Xiao said that troops should be sent out of the city to fight. The idea is bold, but... Or give it a try. After thinking about it all night, Xu Ding had a new idea.

Plug-ins fourteen and fifteen can create super tough soldiers.

Now Nanchang is used as a barrier and can constantly send small forces to carry out tasks.

Although the small force sent out is small in number, it lacks the best of the best. Their combat effectiveness far exceeds that of ordinary soldiers.

If it is used properly, it may not fail to achieve great things.

"Did Your Majesty agree?" Guo Jia asked.

"Hmm. But now that the enemy's forces have arrived, our cavalry has to take on the burden of breaking through as best possible. Therefore they cannot be sent out. We can't afford to take that risk. Xu Ding said: "I mean... Select the elite from the other battalions and go on a mission. As for how to fight, I'll arrange it later. ”

"Zilong."

"Yes." Zhao Yun is out of the ranks.

Xu Ding instructed: "You can go to the army and select two thousand soldiers and prepare for battle." I'll tell you when I figure out how to fight. ”

"Yes."

Zhao Yun should go down.

Two thousand soldiers were quickly selected.

They are all the most loyal to the promise.

In a way, they are dead.

Early morning.

The fog has not yet dissipated.

Xu Ding took Zhao Yun to the school grounds.

"Zilong, don't go on this mission. Just take command on an ad hoc basis. Xu Ding asked.

"Why? If the last general is not there, how can the soldiers kill the enemy? Zhao Yun asked rhetorically.

"You've forgotten what I told you before. The current war is different from the past, the enemy's weapons can shoot to a distance of thousands of meters, and no matter how strong your martial arts are, your life will be in danger. I don't want you to go on an adventure. Xu Ding said with a serious face: "This is the military order I gave you." Anyone with an official rank of captain or above cannot participate in the war, not to mention that you are a general of the Chinese army. ”

"Thank you for your care."

"Just remember..." Under the leadership of Zhao Yun, Xu Ding went to the school and saw the two thousand people selected by Zhao Yun.

Among them were 500 archers, 500 shieldmen, and 1,000 spearmen.

Xu Ding selected one hundred archers, two hundred shield soldiers, and two hundred spearmen from among them.

Standing in front of the soldiers, he said, "Before I go on the march, I must tell you the truth. If you go out this time, you will definitely not come back. You were sent to destroy the enemy's depots. ”

"If you can do it, everyone will be promoted two levels in a row, and the reward will be 50,000. Even if you don't succeed and blood is spilled on the battlefield, your family will be taken care of by the government. And, get a generous compensation. No less than seventy thousand dollars! This is a promise I made in front of the officers and men of the three armed forces, and I will never break my word. ”

"Would you like to go?"

"Yes, willing..." The soldiers replied loudly.

"Yes, I thank you." Xu Ding said: "It's morning, you guys rest for a day." Wait until the evening to act. I will personally send you to the enemy camp. ”

"Yes."

Encouraging to play soldiers, Xu Ding left with Zhao Yun.

In the city house.

Zhao Yun is still asking for battle: "If there is a last general to lead, the soldiers will definitely give up their lives and forget their deaths." are more likely to succeed. Your Majesty, let the last general go. The final general will ensure the burning of the enemy's grain depots. ”

"You don't have to say it, I won't agree."

Xu Dingdao: "You better go to Lu Su and help him defend the city." At least hold on for the day, and try to burn down the enemy's grain depot in the evening. So that we can retreat from the enemy. ”

"Yes."

Zhao Yun did not get his wish, and his state was very poor.

He went to find Lu Su.

At this time.

The troops of the Western Shang Empire were already preparing to attack the city.

Lu Su stood on the castle tower, watching the enemy's artillery being pushed out and aimed at the castle tower. Lu Su's heart trembled.

"Sir, how are you doing here?" Zhao Yunlai asked.

"It's a bad situation."

Lu Su raised his hand and said, "Look outside, the enemy's artillery fire is already being prepared. Half an hour later, Nanchang City will definitely be bombarded. The range of their artillery, I don't say you know. The troops we placed in front had no power to resist. ”

"Over time, our casualties will be heavy."

Zhao Yun asked, "What do you have in mind?" ”

"Ugh...." If Lu Su had an idea, he wouldn't be here anymore sighing.

"Zilong, you are not in the city to protect Your Majesty, what are you doing here?" Lu Su suddenly remembered. Zhao Yun's current troops have become Xu Ding's guards. Together with Dian Wei, he was responsible for the protection of Xu Ding.

"Your Majesty asked me to come. Sir, you leave the city alone. Before I came, His Majesty had an explanation that Nanchang must be guarded. Delay for at least a day. Can sir do it? Zhao Yun asked worriedly.

"Zilong is not an outsider, to tell you the truth, I.... Not sure. Lu Su said.

As the commander of the three armies, he is not sure, can the soldiers defending the city still have confidence.

Zhao Yun didn't know what to say.

"One-shot reloading.... At this time, a shout came from outside the city.

Lu Su exclaimed: "Everyone is well hidden, the enemy is about to start attacking." He took Zhao Yun into the hidden soldier cave in the back.
