was reprimanded by Cao Meng, and a little girl protested in a low voice: "A military order is a military order, but are you going to let us, weak women who are powerless, walk through this robbers, bandits, and homeless people, and jackals, tigers and leopards on the way back?" , how is that different from sending us to death? I think this is murder, so ah, we can't carry out this order, King Chuang has said it, should we be flexible in executing military orders? ”

Cao Meng's tone was suffocated, knowing that they were arguing with strong words, but he really didn't think about it. "Then can't you ask for help from the cavalry brothers outside?" Saying this, I obviously didn't have confidence in my heart, no, I asked the cavalry to protect you back, but you didn't let it yourself.

The pungent squad leader raised his little face full of tears and said stubbornly: "Brothers are fighting, we can't be a burden to our brothers, we are also soldiers, our combat post is on the battlefield, if every time the battle comes, everyone will drive us away, then why do we have a women's army?" What's the use of having a women's army? Could it be that King Chuang set up the Women's Army to decorate the façade in the first place? King Chuang has said more than once that our women's army is the flower of the battlefield, the rose of the battlefield, and we want to open up among our brothers when they need us the most, so we can't run away. ”

There was thunderous applause above and below the city, and with these women's troops, the hearts of the brothers in the battle were much calmer, and their morale was much higher, which is an irrefutable fact.

Looking at the scene of one side down, you know what the army wants, Cao Meng is very helpless, and he wants to say something, the captain raised his head and turned his eyes and became aggrieved again, and tears fell: "And you dead bear, what kind of broken fortress do you say you repaired?" It's like a chimney, you don't even have a door, and now our sisters can't leave if they want to, are you trying to kill us? You said? Do I have a grudge against you? ”

Everyone laughed together, and the original arrangement of being determined to fight to the death became Cao Meng's unspeakable mistake.

"Then I'll let the brothers drop you out of the city with ropes." When he said this, Cao Meng stopped talking, and felt that he really wanted to kill them.

Sure enough, the squad leader cried even more, "You really want to kill us, you drop us down the city, and the tens of thousands of archers outside won't shoot our sisters into hedgehogs right away?" Why are you so ruthless? As he spoke, he burst into tears.

Cao Meng was at a loss at the time, and repeatedly said that he didn't mean this, but seeing that the team leader was still crying, he hurriedly picked up his sleeve to wipe her tears, but just raised the sleeve and remembered that it was inappropriate, what is it that a big man wipes his tears with a girl's dirty sleeve? stopped in front of the squad leader's face awkwardly, and the squad leader pulled Cao Meng's sleeve; "Bring it, use your sleeve and I'll wipe my tears."

Cao Meng and everyone were petrified, but everyone's hearts were melted and confused.

"Mr. Cao, the enemy is attacking." A brother in the city shouted loudly, which relieved Cao Meng of the siege, and now, Cao Meng has the idea of hugging that Zhang Yuanqin, Cao Meng is like being amnestied, and he withdrew his sleeves and fled to the top of the fortress.

The squad leader shook his head and said bitterly to the brothers who were still watching: "What else do you see, haven't you seen wiping your tears with your sleeves?" Don't get to work yet? After that, he started to get busy.

I've seen wiping tears with the sleeve of her shirt, but I've never seen a girl pull a man's sleeve to wipe her tears, and wipe it so rightly. Everybody thinks so.

Cao Meng went up to the fortress and looked out, only to see a group of black-pressed villagers, carrying a ladder and starting to walk towards the fortress under the drive of the supervising team behind.

It seems that Zhang Yuan is desperate, Cao Meng said loudly to everyone around him: "Brothers, originally we wanted to fight to the last man, and also let all the people in the world see the strength and strength of our army, but now I have changed my mind, I ask you to live until our reinforcements arrive, even with our teeth, don't let an enemy break through our fortress, because. Cao Meng took a deep breath and said loudly: "Because, there are ten of us sisters behind us, and we will never let our enemies, even if we look at them, it will be a blasphemy against our sisters." ”

Without any words, all the people just held their guns tighter, and the combat effectiveness of the Black Tiger Army doubled at once.

The annual winter wind is strong, and the yellow flowers of the battlefield are extraordinarily fragrant.

Ganquan Qianhu walked through the entire siege process, and the Zhang Yuan and his rookie brothers were dazzled and dumbfounded, which also made them learn a lot during the period, after all, the things in the books are different from the actual operation, so that those children who also began to specialize in military books and battle strategies on weekdays were embarrassed, but they also saw the enemy's cunning and strong mental quality, all the processes were in vain, and it was indeed extremely frustrating.

When the last archer shot his last arrow, seeing that the arrow fell weakly on the fortress wall, leaving not even a single white spot, the thousand households knew that their method of covering the feather arrow was bankrupt again.

Ring the gong to collect the troops, let those brothers who couldn't even lift their arms go to the back to rest, and called Zhang Yuandao: "Lord Zhang, now the most basic siege methods have been exhausted, but there is nothing to be done about the fortress of the thieves. ”

"The adults did their best, but it was also caused by the thieves' cunning, so what can I do?" Zhang Yuan was also helpless, facing a small fortress, six or seven thousand people facing five or six hundred thieves, but they were helpless, how could this not be frustrating?

"My lord, brother." A disciple of the Chen family stepped forward and said with a lively expression: "In my study of the art of war, there is a method of digging tunnels and burying explosives to break the city, why don't you try it?" Anyway, we have gunpowder. ”

"This little goth is also dogmatic." The thousand households did not reprimand him for his ignorance on the spot, and taught him as an elder: "Digging the ground and bombing the city also depends on the actual situation in various places, for example, we are not suitable for that method here. ”

Why is that? Isn't it just an icebreaker? Under the influence of gunpowder, isn't that all at once flying into the sky? The kid was unconvinced.

"The things in the book of soldiers are dead, if you copy it, then you are no different from looking for death by yourself, the use of soldiers is to pay attention to their hearts to judge the situation, pay attention to the impermanence of soldiers, where is the truth that is universal in the world? First of all, there are two kinds of digging methods, one is digging into the city, and digging into the city, not to mention the method of digging into the city, the little brother's method of digging the ground and bombing the city is not advisable with the current time and time, you see, it is very difficult to dig the ground in the cold weather, and the second terrain is not favorable, the fortress is built between the river and the mountains, facing us here or a flat river can be seen at a glance, the river and the mountains there not to mention the digging, then it can only be excavated in our place, but the excavation tunnel is a surprise, If you dig in front of him here, people will calculate the direction of your tunnel, if they have gunpowder, then throw a large amount of gunpowder in the direction of your tunnel to blow up your tunnel, so that you fall short, if the other party has no gunpowder, then throw some big stones can also slowly collapse your tunnel, or the end of failure. ”

Looking at the Chen family disciple who was still unconvinced with a blushing face and thick neck, he said patiently again: "It can't be done from the perspective of time, digging tunnels takes countless times, and it can't be effective in a day or two, let's rush to pull out the nails in front of us now and join General Li Yuanhao, if we are implicated for a long time, then General Li will become a lone army without our help, and then General Li is only a thousand men and horses in the place where the thieves are in the heart of the thief, so it can't be done, as long as General Li's army is destroyed, the army of Black Tiger Village will pour out of the nest and counter-encircle us, Then we will also be a disaster. So we only have the last and most cruel move, the ants are attached to the siege city, and if we want to take the fortress in front of us as soon as possible, we can only rely on our numerical advantage, climb the city and fight, and fight with them. ”

After being explained in detail by the old soldier for a while, the disciple surnamed Chen thought about it and bowed to Qianhu and said, "The kid has been taught." ”

At this time, another disciple was unconvinced: "My lord, isn't it better to be implicated for time?" We can use the thieves in front of us to attract the thieves to come to the rescue, then we can rely on the convenient location of the county's material transfer, recuperate and wait for work to fight the thieves from afar. As for those rabble, we will surely be able to calm down and relieve the great troubles of the Governor and the Governor. ”

This proposal was loudly endorsed by many people. Zhang Yuan also looked eagerly at the thousand households. Originally, Zhang Yuan didn't have the intention of quelling the thieves, not only because of the combat strength of his own township, but also because of such thoughts. But on the way here, the landlords who kept joining the powerful armed forces made his strength greatly increased, and his heart slowly swelled. I also want to make a good fortune in front of the governor, the thief is invincible, wouldn't it be better to show his strength first?

The thousand households looked at these young people who were eager for fame in their eyes for a while, and then looked up and laughed, and everyone who laughed was weak for a while, and Zhang Yuan asked in a low voice: "Why are adults laughing?" ”

"I laugh at you for being too self-conscious. I laugh at you for being too blind. ”

At that moment, those young people were all angry, and there was some hostility in their eyes, and the thousand households were not surprised, and said loudly: "A fundamental thing that the art of war pays attention to, that is, knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, you know yourself, in fact, you don't necessarily know yourself very well, let alone know the strength of the enemy, and what kind of thieves are just rabble, chickens and dogs, you are also short-sighted and sit in the well and watch the sky, and the thieves composed of homeless people are really uninformed, not to mention the previous things, you wait to see the thieves composed of homeless people, All of them were strong men, each with a double-layered rattan armor and rattan helmet, with a well-trained gun and a high fighting spirit. Where are you people who have just been elected among the outcasts, and who have not yet regained their strength? ”

When he said this, the children of the Chen family, the Zhang family, and the Zhao family were all flushed, bowing their heads and saying nothing. I was extremely discouraged, can this battle still be fought?
