Liao Bojian can't, but he can't learn it, Gaine really can't do everything like Gu Yanzhang, and he is familiar with everything, and some of the things are so detailed that the practice has to be limited-but this method is really very suitable-so he had to be annoyed and scolded on the other hand, forcing the people under him to turn around.

As long as Gu Yanzhang catches the people and grain in the city, these are not messy, the others will not be messy, and no matter what Liao Bojian does, he will not cause much trouble, so he will no longer interfere and take care of it himself.

In the past few days, he was not only busy with the affairs of defending the city, but also busy with the affairs of the city, and it was easy for the latter to come to an end for the time being, and he could send his subordinates out, and before he had time to rest, a soldier guarding the city came in outside, and said urgently: "Gouyuan, Jiaozhi is attacking the city, and it is hitting the west gate and the south gate!" ”

Hearing that Jiaozhi was attacking the city, where could Gu Yanzhang continue to sit still, he had to get up again and follow the soldier to the west gate.

For several days, Cochin had to attack the city every day, and the city was repelled with the help of the Divine Arm Bow.

Now it doesn't matter, there is only one case, there are only more than 300,000 wooden feather arrows left in the warehouse, if they are consumed at will, I am afraid that they will not last too long.

Although Jiaozhi has never been within a hundred steps of the state city, the water source in the moat under the city gate has long been cut off by the enemy, and once the arrows in the city are exhausted, they can only defend it if they reach the bottom of the city.

Gu Yanzhang and Liu Ping are responsible for the transfer of the counterinsurgency army, and the other is responsible for the transfer of the city, in addition to ensuring the supply of arrows and troops, they must also ensure the people, water, rotation, military doctors, etc., although they are not responsible for defending the city, but in real terms, it is not half an easy point than defending the city.

***

Gu Yanzhang was riding on a horse, and he only felt that the sky was a little strange today.

He hurried to the west gate, urging the horses to run quickly, and at the same time raised his eyes to look at the sky, and sure enough, he saw that the clouds were thick, and he could not see the sun at all.

The winter sun in Yongzhou is usually not much, and when the cold wind blows gloomy, there are always seven or eight days out of ten days, but it is really rare to see it like today.

"Is it going to rain?"

Thinking in his heart, the horses under the seat had already arrived at the city gate, Gu Yanzhang didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly turned over and walked down the city wall quickly.

Before he could see the lieutenant general defending the city, he could already hear the sharp sound of the horn, and when he went to the outside of the city wall, he saw that Jiaozhi had already retreated.

Gu Yanzhang said curiously: "Why did you retreat so quickly today?" ”

The deputy general was sweating all over his body, and when he heard Gu Yanzhang say this, he laughed and said: "In the past few days, I have been afraid that five or six thousand people have been shot and killed by the Divine Arm Bow, and so many have died, where is there no fear?" ”

The two were talking, but Gu Yanzhang suddenly felt a cold on his face and hands, and when he lowered his head, he saw a few drops of rain falling from his hands, and then on the ground, the sparse raindrops had quickly hit the city wall head.

The face of the commander of a Yongzhou city next to him suddenly became a little ugly, and he said, "It's raining." ”

The lieutenant turned his head and asked, "Is this okay?" Although it was cold, let the brethren put on tarpaulins and withstand the cold rain. ”

The commander said: "The generals don't know, although there is not much rain in Yongzhou in winter, but when you get up, it will not stop in three days or two, it is very humid here, and when the bows and crossbows and arrows are damp and shot on the thieves, I am afraid that there will be no strength today." ”

He was still talking, and the rain in the sky was already falling in big drops, Gu Yanzhang hurriedly found his own soldiers to come over, and arranged for someone to send rain cloths and oil paper to help the soldiers and bows and crossbows to cover the rain.

The commander is not wrong, it doesn't rain in Yongzhou in winter, and it hasn't stopped for five or six days in a row, and the city is full of humidity.

The first time Gu Yanzhang came to Guangnan, he originally thought that Ganzhou was already considered a southern place, that place was humid in spring and summer, and it was necessary to burn more charcoal in winter to force the moisture away.

It has rained for such a long time, even if many roads in Yongzhou City have been paved with bluestone slabs, but there is always a yellow mud ground, he stepped on riding boots, walked on the yellow mud ground, and raised his leg is a thick yellow mud, which makes people very annoyed when they walk, and the air is wet, wave his hand, as if the hand is in the water against the current, and it is solemn and heavy, really annoying.

What's more, even if you wrap it tightly in oiled paper and put hydrated lime in the box to absorb water vapor, the strength of the Divine Arm Bow has weakened by more than half the day before the test firing.

The lime in Yongzhou City was limited, so Gu Yanzhang had to save charcoal and burn charcoal every day in the warehouse where the Divine Arm Bow was placed, lest the Divine Arm Bow not be able to exert its strength for two more days.

When the rain stopped, it was eight days later, during which Jiaozhi attacked the city several times, because the bow of the divine arm was not strong when it rained, the generals could only smash stones and trees on the city, and then open the city gate, and lead the soldiers to intersect with short blades, and both sides were killed and wounded.

Early this morning, the generals defending the city discussed in one place, saying that yesterday the city sent troops to kill more than 100 people, because of the heavy rain, the outside of the city was full of yellow mud, both sides of the battle could not be carried out, and the casualties were really not light.

Wang Miyuan said: "Now that I have been guarding for more than half a month, there is no news outside, it stands to reason that Guizhou and Guangzhou are so close, even if the troops are gathered to work hard, there should be news at this time......"

Another adjutant general said: "With 100,000 soldiers in Jiaozhi, Guizhou and Guangzhou can lead two or three thousand soldiers at most. ”

Gu Yanzhang only sat aside and did not speak.

Yongzhou set off in a hurry, if you want to get to the capital, it will take at least half a month, wait until the DPRK receives the letter, and then order the troops and generals, and set off again to get here, not to mention two or three months later.

If Jiaozhi does not attack the city for two months, I am afraid that he will withdraw his troops if he does not wait for the reinforcements from the DPRK and China to arrive.

It's just that it's still unknown whether the city will last for two months.

Jiaozhi not only cut off the moat canal under the city gate outside the city, but also blocked the water of the Zuojiang River from entering the city.

Because there was Zuojiang in the past, Yongzhou city did not need to dig wells, now the water source is cut off, even normal drinking water has become a problem, fortunately it has rained these days, the people have gathered rainwater with utensils, and they can hold on for a few more days, and the city has looked for a place to dig wells everywhere, but there is no well master here, digging for half a day, and has not found a suitable water point.

He listened to the lieutenant generals talk about the situation when he intersected with Jiaozhi, and after thinking about it for a long time, he finally couldn't help but speak...... Have you ever wondered what is the reason for this? ”
