After all, for so many years, Zhu Qiwu has never let himself down.

After Zhu Chongba sent some people over to dig tunnels, the defenders on the city wall of Haozhou finally discovered their movements.

On the city wall of Haozhou, a small soldier first discovered the situation.

"My lord, look there, the red turban thief is digging a tunnel!"

He immediately reported to Wang Tianba, the deputy general of Haozhou.

"Digging tunnels?"

When Vice Adjutant General Wang Tianba heard this, he immediately stomped on the arrow and looked at the city.

Sure enough, not far from the city wall, a group of red turban thieves formed a circle!

Quite a few red turban thieves dug baskets of dirt out of the ground.

Vice General Wang Tianba is not a rookie, he has been stationed in various places for many years.

There are a lot of thieves encountered, and it is even more common to dig tunnels to attack the city.

When he saw the red turban thief digging the tunnel, not only did he not panic at all, but he was even more relieved.

"Haha, these red turban thieves are really stupid and stupid as pigs! It's ridiculous that you still want to attack acupoints? Wang Tianba's face was proud.

Where are the few pro-soldiers next to him who are as well-informed as Wang Tianba, they are all puzzled and asked.

Wang Tianba was suddenly proud, and began to point out his own soldiers.

"It stands to reason that a cave attack can attack a city, but it is not as stupid as a thief!"

"Any cave attack is nothing more than digging down the city wall, or digging a tunnel to sneak into the city."

"No matter what kind of cave attack, it must be kept secret, otherwise once the direction of the tunnel is exposed, the defenders can wait for the rabbit and make some preparations for interception, such as digging a deep trench outside the city to prevent them from getting close to the city wall, or diverting water to irrigate the tunnel in advance."

"So for the sake of secrecy, there are often dozens, or even dozens of tunnel entrances, dug outside the city, all of which are used to confuse the defenders, so that the defenders don't know which is the real tunnel."

"It's like these stupid thieves with red scarves outside the city, who are digging an entrance to the tunnel so brightly, hahahahaha!"

After Wang Tianba finished speaking, he immediately laughed out loud again.

A few pro-soldiers next to him finally understood the truth.

They gave a thumbs up one after another, praising their generals for their well-informed, worthy of being the pillar of Haozhou City!

In addition, they followed and laughed at the red turban thieves outside the city.

"Such a group of stupid thieves dare to come to Haozhou City, it is simply sent to death!"

"That is, Luo Zhizhou is too timid, otherwise let the general lead us to rush out, it will definitely be a military achievement!"

"Yes, these thieves are so stupid, I'm really afraid that if they run away, the military exploits in hand will fly."

Under the compliments of several pro-soldiers, Wang Tianba, the deputy general of Haozhou, suddenly felt like he was reborn in vain, and Han Xin possessed him!

If it hadn't been for the promise, Luo Zhizhou would not have been able to hold on.

Maybe Wang Tianba will rush out at this time to capture the thief leader Zhu Chongba.

In the midst of a group of people, one of the pro-soldiers suddenly reminded:

"My lord, the thieves are here for this tunnel, should we dig a deep ditch outside the city to block them from approaching the city wall?"

This little soldier's proposal sounds very reasonable.

But.

When Wang Tianba heard this, he sneered and patted the head of this pro-soldier casually.

"Damn, I think you're stupid, similar to those stupid thieves!"

The beaten pro-soldier looked aggrieved, and the other was deeply puzzled.

"My lord, this is what you said, you can dig a deep trench to intercept the tunnel."

Wang Tianba showed the pride of crushing his IQ again, and said: "If you want to dig the tunnel under the city wall, even if it is a small tunnel, it will take three or five days!" ”

"If you want to dig down the walls, you have to transport logs and bricks into the tunnels, and the tunnels have to be very wide, at least for almost a month."

"Even if you dig under the city wall, you have to dig a big cavity and use log bricks to hold it up, which will take more than ten days."

"So if you want to dig up the city wall of Haozhou, don't think about getting close to it for more than ten days!"

"Let's let these fools dig for more than ten days first, and then cut off when they get closer, and let them work in vain, hahaha!"

Wang Tianba said it, and laughed proudly again.

The surrounding soldiers repeated the process of patting the sycophants just now, praising the adjutant general's wisdom and martial arts, while laughing at the stupid thieves outside the city.

By the way, the pro-soldiers who had just raised their opinions also laughed at them.

Anyway, no matter what kind of attack it is, Vice General Wang Tianba doesn't care.

When Luo Wenqing, the governor of Haozhou, came to the city wall, he also showed the same smug smile after seeing the Red Turban Army digging tunnels.

"Red Turban stupid thief, but Er'er!" Luo Wenqing stroked his beard and smiled contemptuously.

Although Luo Zhizhou is a civil official, he has helped the Mengyuan court suppress the rebellious people for so many years, and his military knowledge is no less than that of Deputy General Wang Tianba.

"My lord, the thief is so stupid, Haozhou City is already as stable as Mount Tai." Wang Tianba laughed beside him.

"Well, having said that, you have to keep an eye on it at all times, and remember not to let the thieves take advantage of it!" Luo Wenqing said.

"My lord, please rest assured, the last general's eating, drinking, and Lazar are all planned to be on the city wall, and if the reinforcements from the imperial court do not come for a day, the last general will not go down the city wall for a day!" Wang Tianba patted his chest and reassured.

"Good, good! Vice General Wang is dedicated to the country, and after this battle, this official will ask for your first credit! Luo Wenqing nodded approvingly.

Wang Tianba's heart is very beautiful!

If you can make a head, then you will probably be able to turn the deputy general into a regular general.

The matter of defending the city is very complicated.

Luo Zhizhou inspected it, then returned to the government and handed over the city defense to Adjutant General Wang Tianba.

Wang Tianba led the defenders, lying on the head of the city as if watching a play, watching the red turban thieves dig tunnels in the distance.

The experienced deputy general Wang Tianba can basically judge the speed of the tunnel dug by the thieves by counting the soil that is being moved.

According to the current progress, even the most narrow tunnels will take five days to dig the root of the city wall.

It's not early.

Deputy General Wang Tianba entered the city gate tower, took his soldiers to eat wine and meat, and simply went to sleep.

As the sky gets darker.

Zhu Qiwu originally thought that the excavation of the tunnel would be stopped, after all, it was really dangerous to blind the fire with a black light.

Who knows, Hu Yiba and others not only have no intention of stopping work, but they are more energetic.

"Hu Yiba, it's getting dark, do you want to take a break?" Zhu Qiwu asked at the entrance of the tunnel.

A big black face crawled out of it, it was the tomb robber Hu Yiba.

"Master Jun, we are not afraid of the dark, take advantage of the night to dig more progress, save the officers and soldiers, oh no, save the Haozhou Tartars to dig a deep ditch to block!" Hu Yiba said very positively.

This is not that Hu Yiba and others have selflessly dedicated themselves to the cause of rebellion, and they are not afraid of hardship or tiredness!

They were really scared by Zhu Qiwu.

Before digging the tunnel, Zhu Qiwu said all the possible methods for the defenders of Haozhou to deal with the cave attack.
