And the officers and soldiers who shouted and beat drums to help at the head of Dantu City had already lost their voices on the spot; Some people even have cold hands and feet, and they can barely hold their weapons.

They almost watched as the armor soldiers who had mustered up the courage to kill were once again submerged in the grass thieves; Then, with the screams and roars in the doorway, the expression and expression came alive again.

"Help."

"Close the gates first."

"Don't let the thieves take advantage of it."

"There are many people trapped in doorways and under walls."

"I don't care about that much, or the safety of the soldiers and civilians in this city is the first priority."

"Then send someone to grab one more and count it as one."

"It's really a firearm for the thieves. The fireworks in the doorway are blazing.,Can't rush through it at all.。。 ”

"Then splash water on the fire."

"No, the water is not extinguished, and the side of the door is closed."

"Then pile up earth behind the door and throw a stone to block it."

In this chaotic and busy hustle and bustle, Zhou Bao, the envoy of Zhenhai Jiedu, who had become expressionless, walked away with his relatives and subordinates without saying a word; Then he was stopped by another figure.

"You can't just leave it at that."

But it was Liu Hao, the general of the camp, who pleaded with Zhou Bao with a fierce voice

"Please also ask Ling Gong to send troops from other gates and pick up the sons outside the city. You can't sit back and watch them fall into the thief's nestle. ”

Zhou Bao couldn't help but raise his brows in anger and annoyance, and was about to say something. There was also a loud voice that retorted first:

"By no means, do you still want to delay the great cause of Linggong with your own selfishness."

But it was Xue Lang, the judge of Zhenhai; I saw that he was righteously and sternly reprimanded Liu Hao and drank.

"Do you have any doubts after the continuous battle? The grass thieves have already prepared layers of heavy troops and ambushes in all the important points of the five gates, and they mobilize sieges day and night, as long as their own army moves, and they have hardly failed for several days. ”

"Since then, it can be seen that in the many thief camps that the so-called city head has seen from the sidelines, there are quite scattered signs and vain atmosphere, which are nothing but tricks used by thieves to deceive our army. You can't take it by chance. ”

"As everyone knows, this time the Tiger Fighting Athletes' night attack and stealing the camp failed, and they even put in all the defensive soldiers who prepared for the enemy to break through at the West Gate, is this not enough to be vigilant, and they will continue to lose the soldiers and horses of other gates."

"Now our army is still equipped with thousands of elite soldiers in front of the ya, in the teeth, and more than 10,000 camp athletes available; and the city must be full of strong people to drive and replenish; It also has abundant grain, grass and armor, which is enough to spend more than half a load; Why should we give up the city and defend it, and fight the thief early in the day? This should be the next step. ”

"If anyone is still in doubt, he can invite himself as a messenger to go to the thief's camp to find out if it is true? And why waste the lives of the defenders of the city for a while? ”

"You... What kind of bastard talk is this. ”

After being robbed of such a large chase, Liu Hao couldn't help but turn pale and red, and he was so angry that he almost burst into his chest.

"Get up quickly, these soldiers who have been trapped by thieves are also with my children, don't I cry out in pain?"

However, after this interruption, Zhou Bao already had a plan in his heart, and he also showed a certain look of compassion, and pulled Liu Hao up to comfort him.

"However, a certain family has a more important duty, and it bears the hopes of the soldiers and civilians in this closed city, and it is really not good to divide the troops again for the sake of temporary gains and losses. Later, I will order someone to take thousands of them from the inner treasury, so that I will pay for the death of the corresponding soldiers; And select the strong from the city, and then organize them into tiger fighters and supplement the defense of the soldiers and horses. With you as the supervisor. ”

At this he paused, and his expression became solemn.

"However, before the situation and situation of the enemy are still unclear, there is no need to talk about taking the initiative and preemptively."

"Only obey the teachings of the Public."

The subordinates and generals on the left hurriedly echoed in unison. Even Liu Hao, the general who was originally angry, could only bow his head unwillingly and follow the response.

。。。。。。。

Outside the city of Dantu, the largest earthen platform that was still being built was filled with a certain atmosphere of joy and lightness after another victory.

Even if it is a supplementary battalion and garrison battalion filled with a large number of new soldiers, or a temporary battalion transformed from other rebel armies; After several battles with the upper hand and the upper hand, I have more or less exercised the corresponding experience and confidence.

With relatively sufficient material management and personnel replenishment, as long as the besieging camp can be continuously consolidated, at least let them continue to harden and fight in the same place, and continue to maintain this situation of defending against defending, and waiting for the troops from the periphery to send reinforcements back one after another, then it is time to really try to attack the city with all its might.

Of course, it was not only the new soldiers and reorganized troops who were trained during the siege, but also the same large number of people and husbands. Unlike other traditional armies that treat these people as expendables and go with the war, and do not hesitate to drive them to the road; The Taiping Army cherishes and uses every human resource very carefully.

The same is true of prisoners and convicts who are forced to do hard labor, and they will not be allowed to die easily until the last bit of surplus value has been sufficiently squeezed out of them through a careful labor plan.

As for the long-term and short-term military service and the people's strong men before the army, the level of support that the Taiping Army can provide can also ensure that they only have the opportunity to die of overwork by accidentally crossing the critical line, and basically there is no risk of starvation and freezing to death.

Although this will inevitably increase the expenditure on logistics and the burden on transmission lines; However, it is tantamount to cultivating a large number of potential soldiers with basic discipline and obedience in disguised form in the heavy daily labor plan and strict work and rest management.

Therefore, in this besieging camp, they will also be arranged to take turns to put on uniforms and equip weapons, and go into the preset station to carry out the so-called "conduct" in a predetermined manner, in order to impersonate the banner of those regular soldiers, and constantly carry out bluff tactical deterrence and deceptive deterrence.

Of course, if there is a probability and a last resort, they can also be fully armed for the time being, as a temporary supplementary force and defensive front, to buy time and buffer for follow-up countermeasures. It's just that in terms of specific effects, it's full of some kind of uncertain metaphysical probability.

On the other hand, this time many officers and soldiers who had come out of the city and fell to the ground from exhaustion in the follow-up battles were captured. The corresponding torture and interrogation are also being carried out in full swing; This is also a potential bonus.

At the very least, with this batch of living first-hand information, there will be a corresponding reference to the specific size, structure and deployment of the defenders in the city, the names, identities and temperaments of the generals, and their preferences; In order to further construct the data model of the comparison of the enemy's forces on the battlefield by the staff group and the military participation group, and carry out the prediction and deduction of corresponding countermeasures.

The so-called mathematics and co-ordination are also applicable to the details of war.

"What, a messenger has been sent from the city."

Zhou Huai'an was surprised for a moment, and then said

"Why don't you see it?"

Sorry for the bit of a card in the plot connection, that's all for the time being.
