Chapter 291: Decision

This Helhan nodded again, "Yes, we people, it is impossible to annihilate them completely, but if we drag them back, we will already win." ”

"Therefore, my suggestion is that we not only have to defend the city walls, but we also have to make arrangements in the city, street battles, which have always been the most able to delay time, the inner city passages of the Gulan Wooden Tower are complex, the walls are high and the alleys are confused, and the defenders are local, so they can take advantage of the geographical advantage and start street battles with Warat, so that they can be dragged to death in the city to the maximum.

Without a large field, the impact advantage of the cavalry cannot be brought into play, it can only be a burden, after all, horses also have to eat grass, and they have so many horses, which will further deepen the pressure on their supply. We dragged it up, but the Warats couldn't afford it. ”

"But what about the people of the city?" Another adult asked a question.

"Open the gate of the Golden Palace, evacuate all the people, those who have no combat effectiveness, to the other half of the city, Warat on the other side of the city gate only put a few thousand people in charge of monitoring, there is no plan to attack the city, they are concentrating all their forces on this side."

As soon as these words came out, the palace was silent, and it was a great disrespect to open the door of the golden hall and let everyone pass through the court, and according to the custom of this Hel, it was like forcibly lifting the veil of the girl, which was an insult.

But this Helhan was not unhappy at all, he opened his mouth and smiled, and slapped his palm heavily on Situ's back:

"Okay, you Balangzi, I've already calculated the knife on my head, what's the matter, what good things do you like in my golden palace?"

Danmu Gulan, who was standing aside, grinned:

"He, I guess he took a fancy to the barbecue in your golden palace, that's why he came up with such an idea, father Khan, look at the meat on his body, the horse can't be dragged, and when I saw him in the grassland, the horse carrying him couldn't straighten his neck when he was tired."

"You!" When it was mentioned again, Situ also looked at Danmu Gulan very angrily.

This Helhan didn't persuade him to fight, and looked at the children who were glaring at each other with a smile, "When this battle is over, Situ, in this golden palace, you can have whatever you want, okay, according to this plan, we have begun to prepare." Open the palace walls of the Golden Palace and evacuate the civilians, but they must be strictly guarded and cannot be mixed in. ”

"It's the Great Khan!" The ministers of the palace responded in unison,

"Also, Hua Lanmu, we still have a big granary horse in the inner city?"

"Back to the Great Khan, there are two."

"You must not leave food for the people of Warat, and those who can't be moved must be burned."

"Don't worry, the Great Khan, all the grain, I let them move into the palace at the beginning, the outer city and the inner city, there are no large granaries now, and the grain stacks of the traveling merchants, we have also requisitioned them all, and moved into the palace, and there will never be any grain left for the Warat people."

"Well, well done, Tadan, give a signal to all the battle commanders, and as soon as they see the signal, start to evacuate the tower, and each unit must have a destination area for evacuation, and in that area, start street fighting"

"Order!"

"Ah Gu, your task is to pick some sturdy civilians, arm them, and send them all the equipment in the arsenal, and let the guards and bodyguards of those wandering merchants organize them, a small team and a small team, set a Shangge, and exchange it for the armor of the Warat soldiers, we have gold here, so that people can have a profit."

"Understood, Great Khan."

"The defense of the city wall still needs to be strengthened, we can't relax here, street fighting is the last choice, if you can block the Warat people on the city wall, that's the best, no one should relax for me, the Warat people want to go up to our city tower, don't fill a river with blood, and they must not be allowed to succeed."

"Understood, Great Khan."

"Go, let the Waratians see the power of our Hel."

The ministers of the first hall all led their errands and went in a hurry, and in the hall, Situ also put on his helmet:

"Great Khan, I still lead the prince's guards to guard under the city tower, and if there is a flaw, we will go up."

The Great Khan patted Situ on the shoulder:

"Balangzi, I've worked hard for you, I didn't expect it, it's only been a few years, you eaglets have spread their wings, go ahead, let the Warat people know how powerful we are."

Situ nodded, turned around and walked out of the temple gate, Danmu Gulan behind him looked at his broad back, but did not speak.

Downstairs in the city, the four hundred Praetorian Guards led by Situ were dismantling a giant crossbow for the city defense, and when they saw Situ coming back, they got up to greet them.

"Situ-sama, how's it going?"

"Street fighting has been deployed, and in addition, the matter of food has been resolved, even if the Warats attack it, they will definitely not be able to get any bargains,"

"That's good, as long as it can be delayed for a few days, the prince will have room to play. When the time comes, the Warat people will be in chaos without a fight, and we will be able to kill him for a while. ”

Situ nodded, although over the years, because of Lan Keman's affairs, Ling Xingyue, the prince, has a very complicated heart, but from this battle, Ling Xingyue can accurately hit the enemy's vital point with my fighter, and put the safety of Daming above himself everywhere. At this point, although Situ still can't list him as his close person, he does have an admiration in his heart.

Seeing these prince's personal soldiers disassembling the giant crossbow here, Situ was also very curious, "Isn't this the giant crossbow used for defense on the city wall?" How did it take it down? ”

Zhao Jinlong, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, pointed out:

"Your Excellency, this is from the city wall of this Hull City, a total of eight outer walls have been demolished, we originally wanted to see if we can install it on the inner wall, so as to strengthen a defense, but when it was dismantled, we found that there was a problem with the design of this crossbow, and the deviation of the crossbow arrow was very large, and it was not accurate at all, so it could only be used to shoot the big head soldiers."

Zhao Jinlong pointed to the giant crossbow on the ground:

"This is a problem with the design, its sights and its shooters can not match, so the sights have become ornaments, completely relying on the feeling of the arrow, there is no accuracy at all, there are many brothers in our team who have been playing crossbows for many years, so they are very proficient, and now they are adjusting the coordination of its sights and shooters, if they can, successful, this is a big killer."

Situ listened to this, and also squatted on the side of the crossbow to watch, this crossbow machine, one zhang long, with the use of all-metal crossbow arrows, two people with a winch at the same time, in order to pull the crossbow machine apart, if an arrow hit, the bowl mouth thickness of the stake, can be shot through with an arrow, the power is indeed not small, but in the face of the Wara soldiers who do not have any heavy engineering equipment, with such a crossbow arrow, or with an ordinary arrow, shooting, there is no difference, on the contrary, such a crossbow, from the bow to the arrow, the time is too long, The lethality against ordinary soldiers is not as good as that of ordinary bows and arrows.
