184 - The Righteous Man
The two sides fought fiercely around the city of Runan.
Sima Bi was deeply frustrated by the successive defeats, and he did not retreat at all, standing on the front line and commanding for a day.
With Sima Bi as the commander, you can imagine how strong the siege is.
Tens of thousands of elites attack day and night.
Originally, the arrows and rolling wood and other city-defending equipment in Runan City had been consumed a lot by Yongju before.
Although Yao Yu brought a new force, he did not bring the corresponding props to defend the city.
When the consumption was exhausted, even Yao Yu had no good way, so he could only choose to start a white-knuckle battle with Sima Bi's siege army.
For several days in a row, under the influence of the elite eight formations under Yao Yu, Sima Bi's department was continuously knocked down the city wall.
Whenever he saw his infantry being repelled by Yao Yu because of his lack of stamina, Sima Bi was paranoid and transferred strong men from various counties in Runan that had surrendered.
He made up his mind, even if he consumed, he would also consume Yao Yu.
For a while, Yao Yu felt the pressure double.
Although in terms of combat effectiveness and will to fight, Sima Bi's subordinates are far inferior to the thousands of elites under his command.
But the problem is that these people under him are not emotionless robots. They will also be tired and tired.
The fierce battles of the series of overturns caused the casualties of Yao Yu's men to continue to increase.
Na Sima Bi learned the lesson of Yao Yu's night attack, and in order to prevent Yao Yu's night attack, he never stopped attacking at night.
Although it was said that the siege of the city at night would cause Sima Bi too much damage, it was obvious that he could not care about these things now.
Repelled Sima Bi's attack again, Yao Yu walked on the wall of Runan City, behind him, Chen Zhonglu Bi acted as the left and right guards.
A crowd of people lay down on the walls.
In addition to the corpses of both sides, the rest of the people are almost dead.
After all, for three days and three nights in a row, the soldiers defending the city did not close their eyes, and as soon as they repelled the enemy's attack, the defenders immediately fell asleep on the ground, and seized the time to replenish their energy.
When Yao Yu saw this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this Sima Bi is really cheap, he started to play the routine of Seven Injuries Boxing, he doesn't rest, and he doesn't let himself rest.
Let's just put it this way, as long as Shangcai is broken, the tens of thousands of troops outside Runan City will become turtles in the urn, and they will only be starved to death.
At that time, the situation in Runan County will also be reversed, and the first battle will be successful.
Thinking of this, he asked Shen Lin beside him: "Old Shen, it's almost time to attack the city, it's been three days." If it is delayed any longer, I am afraid that my brother will not be able to hold on."
Compared with the impulsive and high-spirited Yao Bao, Shen Lin's performance is more calm.
Anyway, he had also been on the battlefield when he was a forbidden army in Luoyang City before.
Nature knows the importance of waiting.
If the time is not right, if you make a rash move, let alone have an effect, it will only startle the snake.
At that time, the other side will lose the possibility of winning by surprise, and can only rely on the war of attrition to repel Simavi.
Thinking like this, Shen Lin took a deep breath and said to Yao Bao, "Lord Yao Bao, if you want to attack the city, you can do it now, but before we know the strength of the guards in Shangcai City, our move will easily fail. If you fail, the consequences are dire. At that time, the last hope of Runan City will be dashed."
Shen Lin said this with a calm face, and when the words fell, he stared at Yao Bao directly.
The meaning is very simple, that is, no matter how you choose, I will support you, but the result of this is up to you how you think about it.
Whether you take the risk or wait until you are sure to attack again, it doesn't matter to me, the lieutenant.
After Yao Bao listened to Shen Lin's words, his face changed color, and it took him half a day before he let out a sigh of annoyance: "Is it possible that I should wait here? My brother is fighting in Runan City, how can I be in the mood to wait."
Seeing this, Shen Lin couldn't help but say, "Lord Yao Bao, don't worry, don't you know what your lord is capable of. Not to mention anything else, when the adults enter the city, they bring the elite. Even though Sima Bi has a large number of soldiers, he wants to capture Runan City, which is defended by the adults in just a few days. I don't think it's Simbi, even his Laozi Sima Yuelai, it's not so simple. Until then, we just have to wait quietly."
Seeing Shen Lin looking at him with a serious expression, Yao Bao gradually calmed down.
He looked at Shen Lin's face, somewhat hesitating.
Shen Lin said, "Chen Zhong's meticulous work has already infiltrated the city, I think, at most, there is one more, and he will send out the situation of the city guards. That's when we get to the point. Before that, please be patient with Lord Yao."
With Shen Lin persuading here, Yao Bao's temper has finally been restrained.
He clenched the phoenix-winged gold pistol in his hand, and scolded with a snort: "This damn Sima Bi has made my brother face such a big crisis. After I have conquered Shangcai City, sooner or later I will slaughter this bastard and use his head to make a night pot for my brother to use."
Shen Lin smiled beside him: "My lord, a benevolent and righteous person, I'm afraid I won't take a fancy to this night pot."
