There is a fort on the walled city, after repair, it should be usable, and the city wall is guarded, and the British do not dare to get too close, so they can only set up encirclements and checkpoints on the periphery of the walled city.

Chen Mu and Ah Ghost came to the checkpost and found that the situation was not as bad as imagined, and many people gathered in front of the checkpost and begged the British to let them in.

The British did not drive them away, but left them around the outposts, as if trying to demoralize the defenders through their cries.

Seeing this scene, Chen Mu suddenly had another idea, and immediately pushed Ah Ghost and asked him to continue walking.

"Sergeant, what's going on!"

Chen Mu asked the soldiers arrogantly.

The soldiers could hear Chen Mu's accent, and then looked at the ghost wearing a sheriff's uniform next to Chen Mu, and they also became respectful.

"Sheriff, they ...... They want to go in and be reunited with their loved ones......"

Ah Ghost got Chen Mu's advice, but he just pretended to be arrogant, held his head high, and didn't look at these soldiers at all.

Chen Mu immediately said to the soldiers: "Civilians are innocent, they have their own rights, why don't you let them in?" ”

The soldiers were embarrassed: "This is the commander's order, to prevent them from ventilating the news...... Leak our armament to the people inside......"

Chen Mu laughed.

"The people inside are standing on a high place, with a clear view of our deployment, do you still need them to ventilate?"

The sergeant didn't know how to answer, but said to Chen Mu: "Sir, this is the commander's order......"

Chen Mu snorted: "Do you know who the commander-in-chief of this operation is?" ”

This is an action initiated by the Chief Superintendent, of course the sergeant knows it, Chen Mu is hinting at the status and right to speak of the sheriff.

"Yes, I don't know what the two commanders commanded?"

Seeing this, Chen Mu said bluntly: "The sheriff asked me to go in to spy on intelligence, and you just put this group of people in and let me go in as a cover." ”

"This ......," the sergeant was embarrassed, "we did not receive such an order, and the commander-in-chief told us not to let anyone in...... If these people stay here, they can disturb the morale of the army and shake the people inside......"

Chen Mu knew that it would not be so easy, so he looked at the group of people at this time, and immediately pulled the sergeant aside and persuaded him.

"Sergeant, I'm going to carry out a secret mission, otherwise I won't let the sheriff bring me over to negotiate, this requires your cooperation, if you don't cooperate, when the order of the general command is officially issued, you can only be punished!"

"Listen to me, there are a lot of women and children in here, and if you put women and children in it, they will have to take care of the safety of these people, and they will not dare to fight hard."

"As for the men, you are worried that they will enhance the combat power of the castle, and it is reasonable not to let them in, but women and children will not be their help, they can only become their weaknesses!"

"This is the strategic focus of the General Command, it is psychological warfare, and it can cooperate with my secret operations, so hurry up and execute it!"

Chen Mu is both tactics and strategies, and when he said this, the sergeant really believed it, after all, not everyone can come into contact with these things, let alone everyone can say such a theory.

Although he is a sergeant, he is mainly responsible for fighting, and he understands more tactics and strategies than ordinary soldiers, and he is also more clever, but things like psychological warfare, which are not commanders, cannot be considered.

What's more, the sheriff beside Chen Mu didn't say a word from beginning to end, he must be a high-powered person, and they didn't dare to provoke him.

"Yes, two chiefs, please wait a moment, I will send someone to ask the commander!"

Hearing that he was going to ask the commander, Chen Mu was also a little nervous, and immediately slapped him in the face!

"Idiot! Don't you hear me clearly? This is a secret mission, and it can't be known to everyone, otherwise the sheriff will need to bring me a soldier himself! ”

These soldiers are Royal Wilson musketeers, and they don't dare to say that they are powerful on weekdays, but no one dares to provoke them, and they were beaten by Chen Mu like this, but they completely believed it.

Because the sheriff played by Ah Ghost is too similar, and Chen Mu, as a Chinese, dared to slap him, a sergeant, it can be seen that their status is really very high!

"Yes, sir!"

The sergeant did not dare to hesitate any longer, immediately beckoned his companions, and let the woman and child go through the checkpoint.

Chen Mu mingled among these women and children and came to the gate of the walled city.

The women and children ran forward crying, but there were no Brits behind them, and the walls of the city were slow to open.

Their relatives were at the head of the city, and they were crying and crying against each other, but the gates of the city were not opened.

When the sergeant not far behind him saw this scene, he was even more convinced of Chen Mu's theory, and the Chinese knew the art of war, and they knew it.

The people in the walled city probably don't want women and children to enter the city, after all, during the fighting, it is inevitable to accidentally injure civilians, so it is better to stay outside, but it is safer.

They shouted at the head of the city to let the woman leave with the child, but the people in the city did not want to leave, and there was a kind of determination to live and die together, and the scene was also moving.

Chen Mu can't enter the city, Ah Ghost can't leave, if those soldiers take the initiative to ask, Ah Ghost is afraid that he won't be able to support it for a long time and will be exposed.

Thinking of this, Chen Mu had no choice but to stand up from the crowd slightly, raise his head and look up for a while.

This group of people are all women, girls and children, it is not easy for Chen Mu to hide in them, but as soon as he looks up at this moment, the people on the city wall can see it clearly.

"Chen Mu!"

Wang Julou was also taken aback, he didn't expect Chen Mu to be in the crowd, and immediately ordered down: "Open the door quickly!" ”

Earlier, Fu Qingzhu came back to report the news, but Chen Mu did not come back, which already made them feel very worried, who would have thought that Chen Mu would appear here!

It seemed that it took a lot of effort to open the gate of the walled city, Chen Mu turned his head and gave Ah Ghost a look, suggesting that he leave quickly, and got a response from Ah Ghost, Chen Mu walked into the walled city with confidence.

This walled city has been guarding since the Song Dynasty, but after all, it has been in disrepair, and even some residents in the city have demolished the wall bricks to build toilets.

It was only when Chen Mu arrived inside that he realized why it took so much effort to open the city gate, because both sides were full of various sundries.

After the women and children came in, the relatives waiting at the head of the city had already greeted them, and the family was crying and crying, and the scene was inevitably sad.

Everyone stacked the heavy objects behind the city gate to strengthen the city gate, while Wang Julou walked over quickly and said to Chen Mu: "Brother, you can be regarded as back!" ”

Chen Mu saw that he was worried, and a wave of uneasiness swelled in his heart.

"What about the others?"

At the moment when the life and death of the city is at stake, as the owner of the mountain, Hei Guhong is not in charge in person, and Sun Youlin and others are not there, how can this make Chen Mu feel at ease?

Sure enough, when Wang Julou heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "Brother, come with me first." ”

Chen Mu didn't say anything more, and followed Wang Julou to the command post near the city gate, and saw that Sun Youlin and the others were guarding outside.

"Young master, you're back!"

Although he gradually became estranged from Sun Youlin and others, hearing this familiar title, Chen Mu was also like a world away, as if he had returned to the original days, and his heart inevitably warmed.

"Are you alright?"

As soon as Chen Mu asked, everyone lowered their heads silently.

There was something wrong with this atmosphere, so Chen Mu didn't ask any more questions, and immediately walked into the command post.

The room was filled with the smell of blood, separated by a curtain that seemed to separate two worlds, and the ears were filled with a low and feeble*, the wounded occasionally struggled to move, and some women tended to them, wiping from their tears from time to time.

A dozen doctors in dirty doctor's gowns were busily shuttling from bed to bed, their eyes red, their hands and even their faces covered in blood, not like doctors, but like butchers.

The city is a "place outside the law", so many doctors and dentists who have not obtained a license practice medicine illegally here, and even some veterinarians have put up signs to do business.

However, when the city was under siege, they still stood up and treated the wounded.

Fu Qingzhu heard the movement, walked out of it, and beckoned to Chen Mu.

Walking in and taking a look, Chen Mu was also dumbfounded.

Black Bone Red was lying on the bed, the cart next to him was full of blood-soaked gauze and bandages, his face was as pale as paper, and there was a smoking gun in the tray at the bedside, and the smell of blood and smoke was diffused in the air.

Black Guhong is a tough man, but now he has to use opium to relieve pain, and then look at the surrounding instruments, and estimate that this is just after the operation.

"What's going on?"

Hei Guhong heard Chen Mu's voice, slowly opened his eyes, squeezed out a smile and replied, "You're finally back......

He struggled to sit up, but his teeth were grinning in pain, and Fu Qingzhu next to him hurriedly held him down.

"The shrapnel has just been taken out, so let's lie down honestly."

Hei Guhong lay down at this time, and Fu Qingzhu said to Chen Muxie: "The British attacked last night, and he was shot down by a stray bullet at the head of the city, and it is lucky that he can survive." ”

Chen Mu didn't expect the battle to be so fierce.

"How's our case?"

Fu Qingzhu also frowned: "Hei Guhong is reluctant to retreat from the front line, so he stayed in the command post to heal his wounds, and several wounded rooms in the rear are already full of people...... Wear and tear on firearms and ammunition is also bottoming out......"

Hearing this general situation, Chen Mu was also shocked in his heart, it was only one night, and he couldn't hold it anymore!

Earlier, they had made such ample preparations, thinking that they could confront the British, the walled city was too small, and it was impossible to fight a protracted war, and the British cut off the water and electricity outside, and the people inside would be starved to death.

It's just that who would have thought that this was just one night, and it was already defeated!
