Bai Muye didn't have any hope for Guo Tong, and he had heard everything he said, after all, business matters.

"General Guo, how many people are from the first team?"

"More than two hundred."

"I'm going to take them all out of the city!"

Guo Tong looked at the noon sun overhead, squinted his eyes and asked, "Now?" ”

"Now!" Bai Muye nodded happily, and ordered in an incomparably indistinct tone: "One person takes a shovel or pickaxe and gathers at the city gate." ”

"General Bai, it's a bright day, and it seems ...... to go out of the city."

"I know in my heart, General Guo is ready for me!"

If Guo Tong hadn't seen Bai Muye's skills, maybe he would really think that this was a madman!

"Please General Guo and General Qiu to guard the wall for me, keep an eye on the enemy's movements, and warn in time if someone attacks!" Bai Muye reminded while going downstairs.

"Nature."

"Order!"

Guo Tong and Qiu Ning said in unison.

Bai Muye continued: "By the way, when Captain Xie comes back, let him greet me at the head of the city, and I will be under the city wall, looking for him to have something!" ”

Guo Tong glared at him, and although he didn't know why, he nodded slowly.

……

"Huh? Second Brother Cai, are you also coming to join the army? At the gate of Jiuting Gate, a heavily armed soldier stood straight, he was on duty at the city gate, but at a glance he saw a familiar neighborhood in the noisy crowd.

As soon as the man heard someone call him, he looked at it and saw that this majestic soldier was actually the little brother next door to him. He couldn't help laughing, patted his chest proudly and said, "No! You are only allowed to come, but I am not allowed to come? ”

"Second Brother Cai, I've been a soldier for more than a year! Y- are you too late? The gatekeeper teased, laughing at his former timidity.

"Shhhh What if it's early? It's better to come early than to come at a good time! Brother, I am General Bai's own engineer, the only one in the world, and I want to come in handy! Second Brother Cai argued with his head held high.

The soldier guarding the door was very curious, and hurriedly asked, "Hey? What is an engineer? Second Brother Cai, tell me about it! ”

"It's—it's—" Second Brother Cai didn't say a reason for a long time, so he simply flicked his sleeves and said directly, "Hey! I don't know! Isn't this the official start yet? ”

The soldiers guarding the gate laughed, and even the people next to them couldn't help but laugh, and Second Brother Cai's face was like a red cloth, and he also laughed.

At this time, a clear voice next to him sounded loudly, as if he was kind enough to solve the doubts of the two, and it seemed to explain to everyone.

"Engineers, now it is the vanguard of digging civil engineering, which can make the follow-up troops win the battle more smoothly, the victory or defeat of a war does not only depend on how brave the soldiers on both sides are, but also the preparation in advance is also essential!"

As soon as the two of them saw someone coming, they immediately bowed their heads and hugged their fists and saluted - General Bai Muye Bai changed into a short coat at this moment, dressed like the surrounding engineers, and looked like he was going to take the lead!

Bai Muye walked towards the huge city gate, rolled up his sleeves, picked up a shovel handed by the person next to him, turned around and said to Second Brother Cai, "Second Brother Cai, right?" Go, come out of town with me, and get to work! ”

Just after noon, the sun was blazing.

The sun burns people's bodies, especially in this open and unsheltered wilderness. The sun hung high, and the shadows of the tall walls were shrunk into small balls, as if stingy to bring shade to those who were toiling in the corners.

Probably because General Bai shared weal and woe with them, although they were soaked, more than 200 people in the city were still full of energy, and they had the momentum of not giving up if they didn't finish their work today!

Anyway, there are no female dependents here, and many people are so hot that they strip their upper bodies, and their long sleeves are tied around their waists with their long sleeves. Bai Muye did the same, revealing a strong but not burly bronze muscle, which caused everyone to look sideways frequently, and even Guo Tong on the city wall couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Bai Muye knew that probably due to the fact that the protein intake was not much, in the Tang Dynasty - or the entire ancient period, although there were many martial artists, there were very few who might have developed a body of muscles, and even a seemingly strong and abnormal military general like Guo Tong had more strength than others.

The Turks outside the city are different, but the nomads grew up eating meat, can they have a bad physique? Just stripped naked and went to that station, the fierceness of the two armies was completely unequal!

Hey!

Blind you!

Brother handsome, isn't it? Worship brother?

Bai Muye was nervous in his heart, and soon came to pat Cai Er.

Because he talked to General Bai just now, he is much more courageous than others.

He came over and handed Bai Muye a bowl of water, and said in surprise, "Yo! General Bai, is your shoulder hurt? ”

Bai Muye followed his gaze and looked at his shoulder - it turned out to be a tattoo representing the identity of a mercenary, which was specially used by Lao Zhou's subordinates, and it was said that it was a pattern he chose himself, a pair of angel wings, and a thief!

"Tattoos—" he replied casually.

"Tattoos? General Bai, you ......" Cai Er was even more surprised, staring at the pair of tattooed eyes in the shape of bird wings!

Could it be that this white general is a guilty man? What kind of pattern is this? It makes people feel a little ...... Pretty?

Is this a stab in the government?

"Well, it's a tattoo." Suddenly seeing his former mark, Bai Muye's mood instantly decreased a lot, probably this is the only mark he has ever existed in the twenty-first century, right?

Ignoring Cai Eryi's astonishment, Bai Muye walked to another place without saying a word and shoveled up the soil hard!

This time, he planned to dig a ditch along the city wall to defend the city, and when he finally had no choice, he poured fire oil into the shallow ditch and lit it to build a wall of fire.

This method has been around since ancient times, but few people seem to be able to use it. Bai Muye guessed that it was probably because the burning time of the fire wall was too short, and it could only be blocked for a while; Or perhaps, although the ditch is not too deep, it is also a big project, like Bai Muye, there are not many generals who are willing to spare a lot of manpower to prepare for war.

That's the importance of the Exclusive Class!

These less than 300 engineers used the most primitive tools and sweated like rain under the scorching sun, hoping to dig out a glimmer of life for Zhaozhou with their own hands.

Bai Muye first dug with them for a while, and then began to patrol back and forth to check the quality of the ditch.

If it's too deep, the fire won't burn people;

If it's too shallow, the oil will be left all over the floor;

If you are too close to the city, it will burn to the city wall and the subsequent arrangement of the city wall;

It is not possible to get too far from the city, and the enemy directly finds a gap to cross the wall of fire, and directly ignores the mechanism.

The most difficult problem to solve: there is no cement in these years......
