Chapter 57 There is no food

Early in the morning, Yugan City was already in full battle, waiting for a new day of battle.

Song Hui, Xu Zhi, Gong Chen, and Dong Zhong led the four regiments along the city wall to various places to boost the morale of the soldiers and make preparations before the battle.

"Brethren, perseverance to the end is victory, and the enemy's rabbit tail will not grow. Don't you see that our general is not here? Our general is waiting for the best time to prepare to defeat Lin Shihong in a battle. As long as we hold on here for another day or two, it is estimated that Lin Shihong's unlucky day will come. ”

In fact, even Song Hui and Xu Zhi didn't know when the general would appear, and they just implemented it according to the battle plan.

The soldiers all knew that there were quite a few troops in Yugan City, but the commander was not allowed to go to the city to fight, let alone go out of the city to fight. Sticking to the lonely city, after a long time, people feel isolated and helpless.

There was no news from outside, and several regiments could only command the battle according to the original arrangement. As for when the general will arrive here with his troops, God knows! They could only wait for a signal from outside the city.

"Don't worry, Tuan Rate, we will definitely not let the rabbit cubs climb the city wall, we will definitely wait until the general kills Lin Shihong and his army to stew the army."

"Yes, yes, Lin Shihong probably thought that we had this little force, and when he cried, haha."

……

The veterans in the Xiaoguo army all know how the battle was won some time ago, and the general's might is really not covered. Since the general is not here, it must be waiting for an opportunity on Lin Shihong's periphery and seizing the opportunity to fight.

Of course, the new recruits did not know that the mood of these soldiers would not be as relaxed as that of the veterans, so the soldiers of the Xiaoguo Army told them how their generals were mighty, leading only a few cavalry to defeat and win and save them from the pursuing enemy army in one fell swoop.

These recruits were still a little worried, afraid that the city would not be able to be defended, but after the soldiers said it, their confidence suddenly increased a lot, and they were no longer worried about the city of Yugan.

The soldiers of the Chu army began to attack after eating, and they practiced that whoever went into battle would eat, and the soldiers who did not have their turn to attack the city could only endure hunger and patience in the barracks.

A few days ago, the grain was about to bottom out, forcing Lin Shihong to come up with such a sassy idea. Not to mention, this method really works, and everyone is willing to fight in order to eat this mouthful of food.

The first wave of people goes to war, the next group of people prepare to eat, and when the first wave of people is tired, this wave of people just finished eating and goes into battle.

Today is another round of tragic offensive and defensive battles, the soldiers of the Chu army carry ladders and climb up crazily, rolling logs and stones, boiling water, and boiling oil on the city wall, as long as they can stop the enemy from climbing up, everything is used.

There were at least 4,000 people defending one wall, but now there are more than 2,000 people defending it. The Chu army began with tens of thousands of people attacking the city, and with the continuous casualties, the strength of the Chu army declined, and now it has become thousands of people dispatched each time. Even so, the intensive siege made the Sui army defending the city scrambling. There were even those sturdy Chu soldiers who climbed to the top of the city, posing a great threat to the city defense.

It's not that there is no army in the city, and the Sui army takes turns to defend the city, in order to create an illusion for Lin Shihong. With the large number of low-damage Chu troops, the number of enemy attacks became smaller and smaller, and the number of defenders in Yugan City was also adjusted.

Digging pits, the Sui army is still digging pits.

Of course, it is necessary to ensure that the city defense is not lost, and there are still some mobile soldiers left on the city wall, specifically to deal with these people who have climbed the city, once they find the Chu soldiers who have climbed the city, these mobile Sui soldiers swarmed up, swords, guns, swords, halberds, and greeted them chaotically, killing these Chu troops and then turning around and rushing to other places for emergency.

After a round of frantic fighting, the Sui army finally repelled the Chu army, and the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground to rest. At this time, even rest is an extravagant hope, everyone knows that the second group of siege troops is rushing here, and the monitoring post is reporting the progress of the enemy army.

Some of the veterans knew from the numbers at the watch post that war was about to start, and with a sigh they stood up and moved their bodies to prepare for the fight.

Sure enough, the voice of the regiment also came: "The enemy is approaching, ready to fight." ”

The soldiers of the Sui army picked up their weapons, bows and arrows, and lay at the entrance of the battlements with bows and arrows, ready to shoot under the city.

A new round of offensive and defensive battles began, and the archers lay on the battlements and desperately shot arrows under the city, killing and wounding the enemy and preventing the Chu soldiers from approaching the city walls. Although the Chu army was numerous, the arrows fired by the archers on the city wall were also dense, and each wave of attack on the Chu army would consume a large number of troops to prevent the Chu army from approaching the city wall and slow down the Chu army's offensive.

The Chu soldiers finally began to climb the city wall, and the Sui soldiers in the city smashed down with rolling logs and stones. Even, some sections of the city wall have also seen wall-to-wall fighting.

The regiment led Song Hui with a spear in his hand and some emergency soldiers back and forth, where the danger went, and fought bloodily.

The robes were stained red with blood, and his voice was hoarse from the incessant shouting, but even so, he still danced his spear and shouted in his mouth: "Kill! ”

Probably the other regiments were similar in rate, and their exemplary role inspired the soldiers to fight the enemy bravely.

Another round of frantic fighting, and finally drove these Chu troops down. Although the Chu army suffered many casualties, the Sui army also suffered casualties. The number of people in the siege of the Chu army was large, and the casualties were larger, but even so, the offensive was still unabated.

The current situation of the Chu army is getting more and more uncomfortable, before noon, Lin Shihong is facing a headache, the food can only barely solve the last meal, and finally the food is out of food. There is no news from the grain protection army sent out so far, and it is naturally impossible for the grain and grass to arrive, and it is estimated that it has been cut off by the Xiaoguo army.

The problem is very serious, or withdraw, which is the last thing Lin Shihong wants to see. Either it's a gamble or a break through the city is not a problem.

Lin Shihong really didn't expect to come to this point, and now he must make a final choice.

To withdraw or not to retreat, Lin Shihong walked back and forth in the big tent. What to do? What to do......

The word retreat made Lin Shihong unwilling, Lin Shihong stood outside the big tent and watched the Sui soldiers on the city wall become fewer and fewer, and there are only dozens of people wearing armor on one city wall. The entire Yugan City totals more than 100 Sui soldiers, and they are also holding on!

What does this mean? It shows that the Sui army is almost finished.

As long as the Sui army is dead, will the remaining Minzhuang be able to hold Yugan City?

If he withdrew at this time, Lin Shihong would be very unwilling. It's a failure.

At the last moment, the Sui army almost couldn't hold on, right?

Whoever lasts to the end is the winner, Lin Shihong understands this truth.

Lin Shihong's face became hideous as he walked, and the gambler made the final choice: fight against the odds and make a desperate bet.

"Someone! Use up all the food, divide it evenly among everyone, and count as much as you want. After eating, all the people participated in the siege of the city, and they were not allowed to retreat until the city was breached. Anyone who evacuates without permission will be killed! After the city was broken, all the soldiers moved freely, without any constraints, and were allowed to go for three days. ”

This move is absolutely ruthless and will definitely drive the soldiers crazy!

Lin Shihong is desperate, he wants to gamble.
