Chapter 54: Breaking the City (11)
In the Tang camp outside the city, Uncle Li Huang was sitting there with a sad face, looking tired.
Because of the continuous storming of Liangdang City in the past few days, it has caused the loss of more than 30,000 people, and the logistics in the battalion have also been urgent, especially the equipment needed for the siege.
The arrows are good to say, there are patches of woods nearby, there is no shortage of trees, even if it is an iron arrow, there is no problem, plus a large number of craftsmen in the Tang camp are rushing to make it overnight, there is basically no problem.
However, the stone bullets used in the catapult are not so easy to make, and the stone bullets in the logistics reserve have been used, but they have not caused substantial damage to Liangdang City, but only smashed the eastern wall of Liangdang City into potholes. There is also the fact that the moat under the eastern city wall is now long gone, replaced by a flat ground filled with the corpses of ** and Qi soldiers, as well as a large number of stone fragments.
"Uncle Huang! Good news, good news! Li Jian ran in from outside the tent with excitement on his face, and walked all the way to Uncle Li Huang.
"Oh? What's the good news? Uncle Li Huang squeezed out a reluctant smile on his face, this is because he doesn't want Li Jian to worry too much about the current situation, although Li Jian is his confidant! Uncle Li Huang raised his head and squinted and asked, "Li Jian, is it Xiao Feng?" He took Hechi County? ”
"Not really! But there's other good news! Li Jian shook his head lightly and replied: "First, the 30,000 reinforcements from Shannan Road have arrived, and there are still about seven or eight miles away from our camp, and they can be reached before dark!" ”
"Good! Sure enough, that's good news! Uncle Li stood up happily, stroked his palms and smiled: "It's good now, with these 30,000 people coming to reinforce me, I see what gossip those generals can say!" ”
In the past few days of attacking Liangdang City, the other generals have not been forced by Uncle Li Huang to contribute less, so the losses of their respective armies will naturally not be small, and some complaints are inevitable. However, they are not ordinary complaints, but they will come to the Shuai Tent to find Uncle Li Huang several times a day, and not long ago, two generals came to the Shuai Tent together to urge Uncle Li Huang to order the capture of Hechi County as soon as possible.
In fact, the ghost thoughts they fought, Uncle Li Huang was clear in his heart, it was nothing more than that his soldiers had suffered casualties, and he was worried about the fact that Uncle Li's descendants and the Feng family army did not participate in the storming of Liangdang City, and deliberately came to Uncle Li Huang to give him an ugly look.
"Yes! Every time I see those generals coming to talk irbesirely about Uncle Huang's actions, I can't help but want to rush up and beat them up! Those who show off their might on weekdays are really on the battlefield, and they are all cowards! Li Jian was obviously very dissatisfied with what those people were doing, and scolded through gritted teeth.
"Alright, stop complaining! Everyone has suffered a lot of casualties in their own army, and some complaints are inevitable! Uncle Li Huang waved his hand to interrupt Li Jian's cursing, and then asked him, "You just said first, is there any other good news?" ”
"Hmmm! There is indeed good news! After hearing this, Li Jian immediately became energetic, and said with a serious face: "Hou Ye is really a clever plan, after Huang Chao learned about the matter of Liangdang City, he really sent an elite light cavalry of 5,000 people to go around to our rear and cut off the logistics supply of our army!" However, he was frightened by the men and horses arranged by General Nie Lang in advance on the road that the enemy army must pass, and just now he got the news that the five thousand elite horsemen sent by Huang Chao turned around and returned. ”
"Then the five thousand spirits rode back to Fengzhou?" Uncle Li Huang asked anxiously.
"I don't know, because General Nie Lang didn't arrange many people, so he didn't dare to send a reconnaissance team to investigate the situation easily, but even if they didn't return to Fengzhou, it wouldn't be so easy to go around to the rear of our army! The other routes were too long, took a long time, and were not suitable for cavalry long journeys! Li Jian shook his head and replied.
"Oh, I see!" Uncle Li Huang nodded slowly, carefully looked down at the map on the table for a while, waved his hand to Li Jian and said, "Li Jian, the resettlement of the 30,000 Feng family army will be handed over to you after they arrive." In addition, you send people to Liangquan and Hechi respectively to check on Xiaofeng's progress, and also instruct Liangquan's Nie Lang to stabilize the existing situation in Liangquan County! ”
"Okay! I'm going to arrange for manpower! Li Jian responded with a fist, turned around and walked out of the tent quickly.
。。。。。。
At this time, in Ji Doushan, Lin Feng, who had already arranged his affairs, sat alone by the stream, holding a fish intestine in his right hand and carving it on the ground at random, occasionally looking up at the stream in front of him.
With his left hand, he casually picked up the wine jug beside him and handed it to his mouth, and after taking a sip, Lin Feng found that it was empty, shook his head, and threw it aside.
sighed in his heart, this time flies really slowly, and he divided the original sip of wine into seven, eight or even ten sips to drink, and how could it be afternoon after drinking a pot!
Since eating at noon, Lin Feng handed over the matter to Yuan Biao and Li Xiaofeng to deal with, and he came here alone, but because of the upcoming war, he didn't dare to drink more, just simply drank some to relieve his hunger.
"Brother-in-law!"
"Brother Feng!"
The shouts of Li Xiaofeng and Yuan Biao came from behind him, Lin Feng stretched out his hand and waved without looking back, and when the two of them approached, Lin Feng raised his head and asked, "It's all arranged?" ”
"Well, it's arranged!" Yuan Biao responded simply.
"Don't worry, brother-in-law! We've all checked it out after arranging it, and it's absolutely no problem! Li Xiaofeng replied with a big grin, fiddled with the battle armor and sat next to Lin Feng, looked back at Yuan Biao who was standing, leaned his head in front of Lin Feng and asked with a smile, "What's the matter, brother-in-law?" I've been here alone for a long time, could it be that I miss my sister? ”
Lin Feng glanced at Li Xiaofeng, he was very curious about his recent words, and always asked some women's questions.
Originally, he should have been ambushed in Heguan Village now, but he ran back in the morning after arranging things, saying that he wanted to discuss something with Lin Feng, and then rushed back to Heguan Village. So Lin Feng simply nodded this time and replied, "Well, yes, I miss your sister!" ”
Li Xiaofeng didn't seem to expect Lin Feng to answer like this, because when he mentioned the question about women recently, especially the question of Li Xiaojun and Yingyue in Hanzhong Mansion, Lin Feng would give him a big roll of his eyes, and then ignore him.
I saw Li Xiaofeng stunned for a long time and blinked, as if to confirm whether he had heard correctly. After Lin Feng saw it, he couldn't help but look up and smile at Yuan Biao.
"Huh! Brother Biao! What are you laughing at! Li Xiaofeng seemed to be very dissatisfied with the laughter of the two of them, and directly turned the finger to Yuan Biao: "Could it be that Brother Biao, you also have a sweetheart?" ”
"Huh? No, none, absolutely nothing! Yuan Biao was blushing by Li Xiaofeng's sudden question, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain himself.
However, Li Xiaofeng didn't seem to let go of Yuan Biao, and continued to ask: "My brother-in-law laughed because he missed my sister, but why are you laughing for?" Doesn't that prove that you're thinking about a certain woman too? ”
"Nope! Not really! Obviously, Yuan Biao's verbal skills are not as good as Li Xiaofeng's, and in the face of Li Xiaofeng's questioning, Yuan Biao's denial seemed so pale and weak.
Yuan Biao's personality is introverted, and he usually doesn't talk much at all, only when they are all in the presence of their own people, and after drinking, Yuan Biao's words can increase. Especially on the issue of women, they blush almost as soon as they talk about it, which has also become a topic that Lin Feng and they never get tired of drinking and chatting.
