Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Xu Jue laughed, and his words revealed a joy that could not be concealed: "If there is a light snow today, and there is a tendency to turn bigger, and the weather is suddenly cold, if the city wall is poured with water, it will be frozen tomorrow morning, and it will be extremely hard, and the surface of the city wall will be smooth, and it will be difficult for the mountains to climb the city, and it can also alleviate the dilemma of our army's lack of bows and crossbows."

The walls of the Three Kingdoms are not all made of stones and bricks, but are mainly made of earth, which is tamped and fastened with local loess or black soil, layer by layer, and each layer is about 15 centimeters thick.

In order to make the walls strong and durable, the walls of the walls are not made in straight lines, but the upper walls are retracted inwards to become "side feet".

The thickness of the city wall is generally four meters in the lower part and 3.5 meters in the upper part, and the height varies from about seven to ten meters, but Xu Jue ordered it to be thickened by four feet, which is about 11 meters in height.

Chaisang is located in the Jiangxi area, mostly use loess, pour a lot of cold water at this time, after a night of cold wind, it must be extremely hard at dawn, and the difficulty of attacking the city in Shanyue is greatly increased.

Wang Yanzhang Huarong bowed his hand and bowed: "The lord is smart! If this is the case, the offensive of Shanyue in these two days will not be a problem, and we will only need to rush to make bows and arrows overnight and shoot at the enemy. ”

Xu Jue nodded, breathed a long sigh of relief, and looked down at the city.

Although Yamakoshi stopped the attack, he did not retreat, and a large number of men and horses surrounded the city, camped on the spot, and lit countless torches in the heavy snow, and the lights were bright.

Xu Qi pondered: I don't know how Sun Jian's side is, whether the march is smooth, and whether he has been discovered by the Shanyue troops.

The soldiers braved the heavy snow, carrying buckets and buckets of water, and kept pouring water on the city walls, and the water poured down from the city, and hundreds of buckets of water poured down, and the city walls were completely soaked.

Seeing that it was almost over, Xu Qi ordered the soldiers to stop watering.

The Shanyue sentry heard the sound of water hitting the ground from time to time from the side of the city wall, and was puzzled, so he reported to Pan Linyu.

Pan Lin was sighing in the barracks, sulking, and drinking turbid wine: I didn't want the city defense of Chaisang to be so strong, and he lost more than 10,000 people in a fierce battle in one day, while the enemy army only suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and this 10:1 battle damage was difficult for him to accept.

When he saw the sentry coming to report, he was not angry, and glared and shouted, "What are you here for?" ”

Seeing that the leader seemed to be in a bad mood and his tone was not good, the sentry trembled and reported: "Report to the leader, the Han army has poured water on the city wall, and I am here to report!" ”

Pan Lin frowned when he heard this, and muttered, "What is this watering trying to do?" Is it to wash the city walls? Pan Lin was also inexplicable, and he couldn't think of what the water was pouring on the city wall for.

So he called the other three small leaders to discuss: "The spies came to report that the Han army poured water on the city wall, you may know what the Han army is doing?" ”

Huang Chao smiled disdainfully: "Big Chief! What is the purpose of the Han army, at the end of the day, although our brothers have suffered a lot of casualties, they have also consumed a lot of supplies, and tomorrow I will personally lead the brothers to break the city! ”

Fei Zhan also nodded, seemingly agreeing with Huang Chao's words.

Just as everyone was pondering, Chang Ju suddenly shouted, "Good! ”

This sudden cry startled Pan Lin, and suddenly there was a nameless fire in his heart for no reason, and he slapped Chang Ju with a slap, and scolded angrily: "You kid has always been so stupid, and now you are still so shocked!" Could it be that you have thought of a reason? ”

Chang Ju looked aggrieved, and his mouth pouted: "Big leader, although I don't know what the Han army is doing with watering, but I see that Huang Chao is confident and ambitious, so I applaud." ”

Pan Lin's heart was broken at this time, and he looked at Chang Ju with love and hatred: although this Chang Ju is still able to fight, but his brain is not good, the fight is not ambiguous, and the reaction is half a beat slow in case of trouble.

When robbing the Han tribe in the past, when he saw a woman with a bit of beauty, he insisted on obeying on the spot, if Pan Lin hadn't hurried to stop it, telling him to take this woman back to the tribe, I was afraid that he would be killed by this woman's man with a rake.

Pan Lin saw that everyone was thinking hard and couldn't think of a reason, so he waved his hand impatiently, "Let's go!" The Han people are scheming, since we can't think of a reason, and wait and see what happens, and then discuss, will this Chaisang City still fly? ”

The three elm heads were relieved when they heard this, and hurriedly surrendered their hands: "Obey!" He couldn't wait to retreat.

Chaisang City rushed to make bows and arrows overnight, a total of more than 10,000 pieces, Xu Qi sighed: Let's rely on this ice city to support it first, it is estimated that it can support for two or three days, as long as you survive this time, wait for Sun Jian's brigade to come to help, and still worry about the mountains and not retreating?

As soon as the morning dawned, the sun rose in the east, and the Shanyue army blew the battle horn, just preparing to attack, and set off in formation, but they could see Chai Sang, who had instantly turned into an ice city overnight, all with their mouths wide open, looking like they were alive and dead.

Pan Lin patted his head: "Oops! The Han people are so cunning! I can't imagine that we can rely on this weather to make an ice city, so how can we climb the city wall? ”

The other three small leaders looked at each other, and Chang Ju said viciously: "Big leader! We have killed and injured so many brothers, this matter can't be just settled, I don't believe that the weather will be cold for a long time, now that we are about to enter spring, the branches are new and green, this ice city will definitely not last long, just wait for him to melt the ice and snow before attacking! ”

Pan Lin nodded helplessly: "That's it, what a cunning thief!" ”

Huang Chao offered advice: "Big leader, it is inconvenient for us to attack the city, but we can induce the Han army to leave the city?" ”

Pan Lin became interested and asked, "Huh? Tell me, what is the inducement method? ”

Huang Chao saw that his suggestion was adopted, and his tone suddenly became a little proud: "You can scold the formation!" ”

Although Pan Lin had no plan, he was not stupid, and he couldn't think of a better way, so he had to nod: "According to what you said, lead the army to insult that Xu Jue loudly and force him to go out of the city to face the battle!" ”

Pan Lin thought about it, this scolding, you have to rely on Chang Ju, although this kid is not good at brains, a little showy, but the scolding is not ambiguous, so he ordered Chang Ju to personally lead the army and start insulting a stone's throw away from the city:

"You thieves! Cowering in the city like a tortoise! ”

"Are you Taishou Xu Qi or a turtle! I think it's some bastard born by a tortoise! Hahaha! ”

"No, no, no! The bastard is not born by a tortoise, the tortoise is called a tortoise egg, that is, the tortoise son, hahaha! ”

"So what are these thief soldiers? Turtle grandson? Hahaha! ”

……

The Shanyue soldiers laughed uncontrollably while scolding, and their ugly faces were very unpleasant to look at.

Li Kui, Meng Liang and others in the city couldn't bear their temper anymore, and scolded the Shanyue soldiers with thick necks and red eyes, seeing that they couldn't take advantage, they muttered that they wanted to lead the troops out of the city. Hua Rong hurriedly stopped it, and Wang Yanzhang went to report to Xu Qi.

Wang Yanzhang, who looked angry, felt in a hurry, and saw Xu Qi sitting crookedly on the Taishou chair, holding the chair wall against his head with one hand, closing his eyes and contemplating, so he swallowed his saliva and reported: "Lord, when the Shanyue soldiers saw that they could not attack the city, they insulted outside the city, and the one who scolded was called ......."

Seeing that Xu Qi was unmoved, he continued: "General Li Kui and General Meng Liang scolded them and threatened to go out of the city to meet the enemy, but they were stopped by General Hua Rong. ”

Xu Jue opened his eyes and said, "I can hear that these Shanyue have no other ability, but they have a loud voice." The voice was calm and unwavering.

Wang Yanzhang was so calm that Xu Qi made 10,000 question marks, so he had to say: "Then ......"

Before he finished speaking, Xu Jue continued: "These Shanyue soldiers scolded people and scolded cross talk, tsk! It seems that it's just a birdman who can play tricks, huh, a bunch of fools! ”

Wang Yanzhang was even more puzzled when he heard this: "Cross talk? Stupid? What do you mean? ”

Xu Jue ignored him and ordered: "General Wang, you are the commander of my command, no one is allowed to go out of the city to meet the enemy, you can only hold on, and those who violate the order will be killed!" ”

Wang Yanzhang immediately surrendered his hand: "Obey!" He hurried to the city wall, and when he left, he was still frowning and muttering: "What do you mean by cross talk and stupidity?" ”

But the situation was urgent, and I didn't have time to think about it, so I hurriedly put aside distracting thoughts and quickly conveyed Xu Jue's order.

After listening to the shouting and scolding of Shanyue all the way, when he returned to the city wall again, he saw that Li Kui had already ordered the heavy axe soldiers, and he was about to go out of the city with a scolding, and Li Kui saw Wang Yanzhang coming, and roared angrily: "What's the matter!" My brother is telling me to fight these mountains! ”

Wang Yanzhang shook his head: "Hey! The lord ordered that the enemy was not allowed to be met, and those who violated the order were killed! ”

Li Kui looked incredulous, opened his mouth wide and questioned: "What! My brother won't let me go out of the city to meet the enemy? ”

Wang Yanzhang shouted loudly: "The lord has an order, everyone can only stick to it, not go out of the city, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!" ”

When those angry soldiers heard this, their expressions suddenly stiffened, and they began to mumble, and their morale was quite low for a while.

After all, most of the soldiers are iron-blooded men, even if they are cowardly by nature, after a long period of training, they are also reborn, and they only have murderous and unyielding; At this moment, he was insulted by the city and the mountain, and the eighteen generations of his ancestors were scolded, which is unbearable!

After holding back for a moment, Li Kui roared angrily: "Fuck it! My brother didn't let me go out of the city, but these birdmen were so insulting, I couldn't bear it! I don't care, brothers, if you are a man, you will go out of the city with me to kill the enemy, it is a big deal to die, you will not lose by killing one, killing a pair is a small profit, killing two pairs is a big profit, brothers! Come on! ”

Most of these soldiers also had red eyes, and after Li Kui's fanning of the flames, their anger had soared to the limit, and they raised their swords, guns, swords, halberds and shields in their hands again and again, shouting: "Kill the thief!" Kill the thief! Kill the thief! ”

Li Kui laughed carelessly when he saw this: "Okay, good! Kill, brethren! With that, he prepared to rush out of the city with two steel plate axes, followed by a large number of soldiers.

Suddenly, a broken cry exploded like thunder, startling everyone present: "Violators, behead!" ”

When Li Kui and the others saw it, it turned out to be Xu Qi, and they immediately wilted.

Li Kui glared at the bull's eye and said: "Brother, those birdmen have scolded your ancestors for eighteen generations, I can't stand this nest of gas!" ”

Xu Jue had a cold face and asked, "But you want to go out of the city against my order?" ”

Li Kui had never seen Xu Jue so cold, and he knew that something was wrong, so he shouted: "Brother! ”

Xu Jue shouted in a deep voice, his voice was extremely gloomy: "Violators, behead!" ”
