After Zhang Liao returned to the camp, the first thing he said to Yuan Yun was: The other party will not attack tonight, so that we can have more time to prepare.

Glancing at the craftsmen who were still working hard to build fortifications, Yuan Yun smiled a little, as far as the current defensive measures are concerned, it can already be said to be very perfect, at least it can be effortless to deal with a large number of cavalry charges, but Zhang Liao is still very cautious and continues to strengthen.

After Zhang Liao handed over the horses to his entourage, he walked back to Yuan Yun's side, and then pointed to the Chinese army camp and said: "Yuan Hou shouldn't come to the front, it's still a little close to the enemy formation, the other party has an eagle shooter, in case you are hit by an arrow here, it will immediately affect our morale." ”

Yuan Yun glanced at the black martial arts armor on his body, and then shrugged his shoulders and replied: "General Zhang is too worried, the black martial arts armor we wear is not ordinary, you look at the soldiers around you, because of the appearance of this commander, the morale has improved a lot." ”

Zhang Liao shook his head, although he knew that the black martial arts armor was powerful, but the enemy's condor hand was extremely powerful, even if it could not shoot through the armor, it was enough to knock Yuan Yun down, and at that time, it would inevitably make many gunpowder soldiers in the front battalion misunderstand, but it didn't make sense to say these now.

Glancing at the craftsmen who were busy again, Zhang Liao changed the topic and said: "As long as the camp puts up the last batch of earthen walls, we can be truly stable, but these will take at least one night, and now it seems that there is enough time, and when the enemy returns again tomorrow, we will find that we have built an eight-foot wall in the front and rear, although these earthen walls are not high and incoherent, but they are enough to block the large-scale charge of those Karasuma knights." ”

Yuan Yun has always handed over the battle formation to Zhang Liao to take care of, and the position he defined himself is actually logistics support, so now that Zhang Liao says so, he can only nod.

After a while, the two returned to Yuan Yun's tent, Guo Jia was still playing Go with Xu You at the moment, until Zhang Liao came in, the two of them congratulated each other, and then Xu You packed up the chessboard and launched a sandbox.

Guo Jia's expression was much more serious at the moment, and he fiddled with the sandbox twice, and in an instant, the terrain around the Powder Army camp appeared in front of him.

"After dawn tomorrow morning, the enemy will inevitably charge from the front, and their purpose must be to break us through in one fell swoop, so there must be a lot of people participating in the battle, I estimate that there will be at least 20,000 of them, which is also the attack mode that the Karasuma people are best at. After Zhang Liao pointed to the sandbox and finished speaking, he looked at Xu You.

Xu You immediately smiled and said, "The ammunition needed for the artillery has long been prepared, enough for General Zhang to use, even if you bombard for a morning, the old man will feel that it is enough." ”

Zhang Liao nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Yuan Yun again: "The marshal must not go to the front tomorrow, as long as he guards this Chinese army camp, the rest will be handed over to Liao." ”

Yuan Yun naturally nodded immediately, for him to go into battle to kill the enemy, it was simply a fantasy, and with his force value, it was estimated that it would be a joke to go to the front, so there was no need to cause trouble for others.

Guo Jia saw that Zhang Liao finished asking, and then said: "This is also the first time I have fought side by side with the Gunpowder Army, but I am worried about the tightness of my life, can General Zhang have full confidence?" ”

Zhang Liao replied indifferently: "There is no certainty of victory in the battle between the two armies, but there are advantages and disadvantages, and now our gunpowder army is obviously superior, Karasuma seems to be a huge number, but in front of our equipment and defense, it is just a local chicken and a dog, if it loses in the end, Liao will not be able to return to Luoyang alive." ”

When Guo Jia heard Zhang Liao say this, he immediately bowed his hand and said: "Then I can rest assured, I will wait for General Zhang's triumphant news early tomorrow morning." ”

"Let's just talk about defense, why don't we think about the pursuit later, when I selected the soldiers of the Gunpowder Army this time, I specially transferred the 1,000 cavalry I led before, don't waste these manpower." Yuan Yun suddenly said again.

At this time, everyone in the audience was stunned, but they didn't expect that Yuan Yun not only wanted to repel the enemy, but also wanted to pursue, and always felt that he was a little too greedy, but after thinking about it carefully, if he could really expand the results of the battle and annihilate more enemies, it would be more beneficial to the future battle.

After thinking about it, Guo Jiagang wanted to praise a few words, but he heard Yuan Yun continue to nod his head and said: "Karasuma's war horses are precious things, I heard that it takes a lot of energy to raise such a war horse, let's not waste it, the more we can capture, the better, and when we return to Luoyang, the uninjured war horses can be given to our soldiers, and the injured can be sold to those merchants, this is a lot of money." ”

After Yuan Yun finished saying this, Guo Jia and Zhang Liao didn't want to pay attention to Yuan Yun anymore, and the two continued to study on the sandbox, and now even Xu You, who has always been a villain, felt that Yuan Yun's shameless businessman was too heavy, so he also chose to ignore it and stood directly by Zhang Liao's side.

Yuan Yun was bored before and after, and suddenly looked embarrassed, but he still began to calculate in his heart, a Karasuma war horse can be worth at least three gold ingots, and now there are at least 30,000 Karasuma cavalry outside, which is equivalent to 90,000 gold ingots.

"I'll go, this money must not slip through my hands." Yuan Yun muttered, and decided to talk to Zhang Liao about this matter later, this is a big deal.

A few people were in the camp until late at night, and finally Zhang Liao leaned directly against the sandbox and snored, and he said that he would sleep, without any sign of hesitation, Guo Jia and Xu You naturally started playing chess again, and they didn't seem to plan to sleep tonight.

Yuan Yun was more pressuristic, although he also wanted to dream until dawn like Zhang Liao, and then wait for an earth-shattering battle, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't close his eyes, so he just looked at the ceiling of the camp tent and was stunned.

By the time the morning sun finally showed his head, Zhang Liao had already gone to the front, Guo Jia and Xu You also left Yuan Yun's tent, but Yuan Yun himself fell asleep in a daze before dawn.

It's just that Yuan Yun's sleep has not yet deepened, he was awakened by bursts of artillery bombardment, and when he came to the outside of the camp tent, he saw that a large amount of smoke had begun to drift up from the front formation, and the rumbling cannon sound did not stop at all, and it was constantly exploding in a very rhythmic manner.

By the time Yuan Yun finished washing, the sound of the cannon still did not stop, but at this time, the sound could already be heard mixed with the neighing of some war horses, and even the occasional shouting of people, so it could be guessed that Karasuma's cavalry had rushed closer, and at this moment it should have been stopped by the first wire fence.

When Yuan Yun began to eat breakfast, the sound of the steel crossbow came to the ground, which was enough to prove that the first few steel wire fences had been broken, when he heard this sound, Yuan Yun's brows wrinkled unconsciously, the enemy could rush to such a close distance, it seems that Karasuma's knight is indeed very good and powerful.

"Little Liu, you go and take a look at the front, and no one has come back to report to this handsome person until now, this is too unusual." Yuan Yun finished muttering, tore the fritters in his hand into two, and then soaked them in soy milk.

Xiao Liu bowed his hand, turned around and ran to the front, in fact, he couldn't bear it anymore, because the voice from the front could guess that the battle must be very fierce, and it was always a little uneasy not to be able to witness it with his own eyes.

After Xiao Liu ran out, Shi Shen took a step closer, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, General Zhang Liao didn't send someone back to report, which proves that there is no emergency." ”

"Shouting the handsome, what is the princess of the princess." Yuan Yun complained before pouting and continuing: "If the Karasuma cavalry really rushes to this Chinese army camp, what do you say to do when Shi Shen?" ”

Shi pondered for a moment, and resolutely replied: "Then you have to fight to the end with the other party, either you die or I die, there is no second choice." ”

Yuan Yun frowned again when he heard this, in fact, he really wanted Shi Shen to say the word 'escape', so that if someone laughed at him Yuan Yun later, he could prevaricate the other party, and it was his own guards who forced him to escape.

But now this plan is obviously bankrupt, because Shi Shen is a reckless man, of course he will choose to fight to the death, which can only show that he asked the wrong person and was unlucky.

Having said that, it can't go on any longer, so Yuan Yun simply concentrated on dealing with the breakfast in front of him, the fritters were just out of the pot, and now they look very crispy when they are cooled, and at this time, with soy milk, it is definitely an extremely delicious existence.

Boom!

Suddenly, another loud bang was heard, this time so low that the non-commissioned officers of the Powder Corps could hear it, the sound unique to the explosion of a petrol bomb.

When he heard this voice, Yuan Yun finally couldn't sit still, because the main function of the gasoline bomb is to block the enemy troops at close range, and if the gasoline bomb is used, it proves that the enemy is really close.

Just as Yuan Yun stood up from his seat, Xiao Liu had already returned from the front, but he didn't seem to be in a hurry, and walked to Yuan Yun's side slowly, and even had time to give up.

Yuan Yun looked at such a little Liu, and his heart suddenly settled down again, so he asked, "It seems that the other party must have suffered heavy losses." ”

Xiao Liu nodded and said: "Indeed, as the lord said, the other party's casualties are really very heavy, and there is no way to see the outside of the front camp, almost invisible to the floor, full of human corpses and horse corpses, and almost incomplete."

The enemy attacked in three waves, and the number of participants each time was very large, and the first wave was almost completely wiped out by our artillery before it reached the steel wire, and when the artillery was reloaded, the second wave of enemies had already arrived.

These Karasuma knights are really not afraid of death, the people in front are hung by steel wire, and they simply lie down with people and horses, and the cavalry behind them will not stop at all, stepping on the corpses of these people and continue to move forward, so they rush to the front of the trench, but the people who can really reach are only a few absurd people, and almost all of them are shot by steel crossbows.

Finally, there was the third wave of enemy charges, this time twice as many as the previous two, and they were about to cross the trench......"

"They were all stopped by petrol bombs, right?" Shi Shen suddenly interjected and asked.

Xiao Liu nodded, his eyebrows immediately wrinkled, and he even had a somewhat disgusting expression, and only after he had straightened out his expression did he shake his head and said: "It's really miserable, the flames of the gasoline bomb are almost no longer alive, hundreds of people are burned in front of the formation, and you can even see more than a thousand people rolling on the ground, but they still can't get rid of those flames, and the smell of barbecue is estimated to be able to float over soon." ”

Xiao Liu's voice fell, and sure enough, as he said, there was really a burst of barbecue smell in the air, and it was also burnt barbecue, and it was even mixed with the smell of gasoline burning, and it smelled so good.

"Wow!"

Yuan Yun suddenly vomited out all the food he had just eaten, and he was already a little out of breath at the moment, every time he just vomited, when the smell rushed into his nose again, he would continue to vomit, and he didn't know how long it had been.

"Unlucky ...... Belch...... Wow......"
