Chapter 779: The Mentality Collapsed

Just as Liu Xing and Ding Kun were about to leave, Wellington suddenly said: "By the way, after two days when our army comes to the city, I will arrange for you to go to the front line to persuade you to surrender, but you only need to go through a formality, after all, everyone knows that it is impossible to persuade you to surrender successfully, but if Liu Xing and you don't persuade you to surrender, then someone will definitely sneer at you." ”

Liu Xing and Ding Kun nodded, and then left directly.

Back at his camp, after making sure that Rodriguez was not spying on the two of them, Liu Xing and Ding Kun chatted over dinner in front of a fire.

"Liu Xing, what do you think, should we find a chance to slip away in advance?" Ding Kun said with some melancholy.

Liu Xing sighed and said helplessly: "Slip? Where can we slip now? Anyway, I don't know anything about the Skaven Kingdom, if we run away in advance, I'm afraid we will starve to death on this great plain, but if we don't run away, Louis may really let his henchman be unfavorable to us, and if Chen Zixuan knew about this, he would probably choose to let it go... Of course, from the perspective of imperial interests, Chen Zixuan is likely to choose to sacrifice us. ”

"yes." Ding Kun also sighed and said: "Judging from the current situation, it is very likely that we have become lambs to the slaughter, there are tens of thousands of butchers around us eyeing us, it is too difficult for us to leave early, and even if we really leave the army, this will give those guys some benefits, because they can better destroy the corpses and destroy the traces, and then use ' The name of 'missing' perfunctory our deaths, but in comparison, I think Yin and Zhang Wenbing's side are more likely to be assassinated than us, because Zhang Wenbing and Yin En's side are the commanders of the army, and Louis can also use this to ask Bonaparte for his guilt. ”

"But the lords and middle and high-level generals in Bonaparte's army should all be Bonaparte's people, it is not easy for Louis to send someone to assassinate Yin En and Zhang Wenbing, and if the assassin is captured alive by Bonaparte, then Bonaparte is likely to seek help from the empire, and then launch an uprising in advance, so we have more room to maneuver on our side, but according to the consistent style of the Cthulhu Run game hall, I think Louis is very likely to come to one and two, and do it to us and Yin En at the same time." Liu Xing shook his head and said.

Ding Kun nodded and said: "There is indeed such a possibility, but it is also possible that KP throws dice to decide whether Louie will do it over there, or KP throws dice to decide whether Louie will do it to us... All in all, it depends on our luck, and if we're unlucky, I'm afraid we'll have to give an account here. ”

Liu Xing thought for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Actually, I still want to die here like this, and end this mod like this, because I really don't want to sit outside Bolin City for a year and a half, it's really too difficult to get through." ”

"Liu Xing, you're right, I'm already starting to regret why I couldn't think of clicking to start the game at that time, and then being teleported to such a strange mod, I doubt that if we really stay in this mod for two or three years, we will be disconnected from the real world after we leave this mod, because we may get used to the current life by then." Ding Kun looked into the distance and said.

Liu Xing nodded silently, not knowing what to say for a while.

Because in Liu Xing's view, Ding Kun's conjecture is likely to become a reality, because there is a good saying - human beings are very adaptable animals, which can also be understood in disguise as human beings are creatures that are easily changed by the environment, but change always requires a process, especially switching between two environments with huge gaps.

The gap between medieval Europe and modern society is self-evident.

So Liu Xing knew that if he was really used to life in this world, then after leaving the mod and returning to the real world, he would probably have to take a while to return to normal.

This made Liu Xing feel a little scared.

At this time, Ding Kun continued: "I once heard a friend of mine say that he once had a teammate who participated in a very similar mod to us, simply put, a group of players were teleported to the Spring and Autumn Period by the Isis to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and then the players needed to choose a prince to complete the unification, and as a result, it took this group of players a full forty years to complete the task, so those players were like a different person after returning to the real world, after all, they experienced a new life in the mod. ”

The corners of Liu Xing's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but think of some of the soul-piercing protagonists that Wu Lei had complained about, after crossing into another world or ancient times, it didn't take long to smoothly integrate into local life.

Liu Xing also replied to Wu Lei at the time, saying that those protagonists who crossed over may have the memories of the original body, but Wu Lei just glanced at Liu Xing, and then said "hehe".

Now that he thinks about it, Liu Xing began to wonder if Wu Lei had experienced such a module before.

"Now we can only take one step at a time, and if we really encounter an assassin, we will have to resign ourselves to fate." Ding Kun put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, "Fortunately, this is Zhang Jingxu's dream, so we can still use the familiar dishes and chopsticks." ”

Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, anyway, I'm really not used to knives and forks, so I basically haven't been to any Western restaurants since I finished college." ”

"That's because you don't have a girlfriend." Ding Kunyin said with a smile.

Piercing the heart...

Liu Xing sighed and couldn't help but think of Tian Qing.

Because in Liu Xing's memory, the only time he went to a Western restaurant was on his first birthday after dating Tian Qing.

Seeing that Liu Xing's mood was suddenly depressed, Ding Kun said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry, I seem to have said something that shouldn't be said." ”

Liu Xing came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I just suddenly remembered something." ”

Talking about this, the atmosphere was already a little awkward, so Liu Xing and Ding Kun ended the conversation very tacitly and went back to their respective small tents to rest.

Three days later, the army finally reached the city of Boleyn.

During these three days, the rebels continued to send cavalry to attack and harass, but Wellington, who had been prepared, easily annihilated the cavalry of those rebels, so now the morale of the army is not bad, and everyone thinks that the rebels are only in quantity, not quality.

But the last thing Liu Xing wanted to see happened.

According to the scout's report, the rebels only arranged 10,000 soldiers to garrison the fortifications outside the city, and the remaining 40,000 soldiers were directly retreated to Bolin City.

What's more, the rebels were not idle during this time, and built another wall ten meters high outside Bolin City, you must know that even the capital of the Skaven Kingdom, Mud City, the height of the wall is less than six meters.

Liu Xing still remembers that he has seen some popular science about the ancient city wall in a certain point of history, which mentions that the height of the city wall of many famous cities is about three meters, and the height of the city wall of Luoyang, Chang'an, which is an ancient capital of many dynasties, is also about six meters, and only those important passes like Shanhaiguan can have a city wall about ten meters high.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything, just like the Jinling in the Ming Dynasty had a twelve-meter-high city wall.

But back to the point, because the army lacked suitable siege weapons, Wellington had to gather his men again to discuss how to break the city.

The result, of course, was two words - siege.

If there is no way to siege the city, then it can only besiege the city.

Although Liu Xing and Ding Kun both wanted to suggest to Wellington to make simple siege weapons such as ladders, but when they thought that their soldiers were 20,000 fewer than the enemy's army, Liu Xing and Ding Kunbian gave up this idea, because simple siege weapons such as ladders were only suitable for use when the besieging side had a big advantage, otherwise it would be for nothing to let soldiers climb the city with ladders.

Therefore, after Liu Xing and Ding Kun pretended to persuade them to surrender under Bolin City, they retreated in embarrassment under the rain of arrows from the rebels.

By the way, this persuasion did not trigger any judgment, which means that it is impossible to persuade the rebels to surrender.

So Liu Xing and Ding Kun gave up the idea of persuading them to surrender again.

In this way, the two sides faced off for a whole month.

During this month, although there were many skirmishes between the two sides, there was not a single decent battle, because one side could not find an opportunity to attack, and the other side had no intention of attacking at all.

As for the situation of the other two armies, it was not much better, Zhang Jingxu's side also began to surround Ruszia City, and the plague clan in Ruszia City played an empty city plan, directly opened the city gates, and did not arrange any defenses on the city walls.

But it was clear to everyone that the Plague Clan had simply abandoned the city walls and wanted to engage in street warfare with the coalition forces that they were best at.

Although Louis had made many wrong choices before, this time Louie was not stupid enough to send people to attack the city directly, so the two sides also began to confront.

On the side of Yin En and Zhang Wenbing, after recovering a few small villages, they also encountered stubborn resistance from several towns, and also refused to surrender to the coalition forces, so Bonaparte could only divide his troops to surround these towns, and he could not capture them in a short time, unless he was willing to pay huge losses to force the siege.

Of course, Bonaparte would not do this, because Bonaparte also knew very well that after the end of this war, it was the best time for him to regain the throne of the Skaven Kingdom, so Bonaparte needed to preserve his strength, so Bonaparte chose to besiege rather than attack, hoping to surrender without a fight.

Anyway, the grain and grass were all provided by Louis, and now he can take the opportunity to consume Louis's family funds.

As a result, the three armies have started the siege mode.

However, during this period, Zhang Jingxu also asked Gugu to bring a letter to Liu Xing and others, and asked Liu Xing and others to pay attention to safety, because Zhang Jingxu also heard that some people wanted to be unfavorable to Liu Xing and others.

After watching Gugu fly in the direction of Yin En and Zhang Wenbing, Liu Xing looked at a hill in the distance and said, "I used to think that those jokes were a bit exaggerated, but now I realize that the imagination of those jokers is not enough." ”

Ding Kun nodded and said: "After all, we have 30,000 horses here, and the excrement produced every day is not a small amount, and there are only a few rivers around here, and we still have to take water from those rivers, so those excrement can only find a place to pile up, but to be honest, I didn't expect it to pile up so quickly and so high." ”

That's right, that hill is a veritable mountain of dung.

At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly thought of something, "By the way, Brother Ding, I remember that in ancient times, in order to eliminate the advantage of the defender's city wall, the most common thing they did was to pile up a mountain of earth next to the city wall, and when the height of the mountain was higher than the city wall, the archers of the attacking side could in turn suppress the defenders on the city wall." ”

Ding Kun raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Yes, this is indeed a good idea, anyway, these 30,000 troops are idle, it is better to pile up a mountain of dirt." ”

Liu Xing and Ding Kun, who reached a consensus, went directly to Wellington and told the idea of the mountain of dirt.

Wellington slapped his thigh and said happily: "That's right, as long as we can pile up a ten-meter-high earth mountain, we can directly suppress the walls of Bolin City, and then we can send troops to climb the city walls!" ”

Wellington is also a man of action, so he immediately pulled Liu Xing and Ding Kun and left the camp with a team of his own soldiers, preparing to go around Bolin City to determine where to pile up the dirt mountain.

However, Liu Xing and the others didn't have long to turn around when they saw a group of rebel cavalry leaving the fortifications and coming towards them.

Wellington frowned, and immediately ordered his own soldiers to enter the battle state, while Liu Xing and Ding Kun consciously took two steps back, because although Liu Xing and Ding Kun are now able to ride horses, if they have a horse battle, Liu Xing and Ding Kun are still five scumbags.

Soon, the rebel cavalry stopped a hundred meters away and confronted Liu Xing and the others in the air, and the two sides did not give an inch.

Although the number of this group of rebel cavalry is three or four times more than that of Liu Xing's side, Liu Xing's side is all Wellington's personal soldiers, and their personal qualities and equipment have completely crushed this group of rebel cavalry, so the leader of this group of rebel cavalry does not dare to attack at will.

Just when Liu Xing, in order to avoid being injured by mistake, was about to suggest to Wellington to take a step back first, the leader of the rebel cavalry suddenly came with a few cronies and broke away from the large army.

After the leader of the rebel cavalry approached, Liu Xing found that the leader of the rebel cavalry turned out to be a woman.

What's more, she looks exactly the same as Tian Qing!

Liu Xing felt that his mentality had collapsed.
