"Overseer, what are we going to do now?"

The guard in the lead asked.

At this time, the Northern Qi army was already approaching, and there were still about 10,000 people!

These guys are different from the rebels, they are a fierce army!

If there is any carelessness, I am afraid that it will have to die at the hands of this group of people.

Lin Yiqiu pondered for a few seconds and said, "Immediately send troops to guard a few city gates and wait for them!" ”

"There are more than 10,000 people on the opposite side, and it is very difficult to attack the city! And the labor expedition, as long as we drag it out, it's no problem! ”

After speaking, Lin Yiqiu said to a soldier next to him: "You immediately take people to Yong'an County to protect Gu Jinglan and Tang Zhaoyi!" They must not be allowed to come near this stone city again, lest they be affected! ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the soldier received the order, he left with a group of men.

And Lin Yiqiu continued to deploy other forbidden troops in the city.

As the gateway to the south of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the geographical location of Shiye City is very important, so it must not be compromised.

Once handed over to the Northern Qi Dynasty, then the entire Qianguo will open the door to face the threat of the iron hooves of the Northern Qi cavalry.

More than 10,000 people came from the opposite side, which is not a lot.

As long as Lin Yiqiu can hold in the city, then it is impossible for the Northern Qi army to drag him out!

Light consumption, energy consumption on the opposite side!

Thinking of this, Lin Yiqiu arranged it again and again.

In the entire Stone Industry City, the forbidden army moved quickly, occupying the main position of the city gate, and at the same time fortifying around the Stone Industry City!

This is also thanks to the fact that the rebels had already built a lot of fortifications, so the forbidden army did not have much effort, and it was completed after a few simple constructions.

After doing this, Lin Yiqiu began to collect food from door to door.

Although most of the stone city was destroyed, fortunately, there was still enough food and salary.

It can be seen from this that those chaotic people in the past were originally going to defend Shiye City, so they made so many preparations in the city.

Today, the number of people in the city is scarce, almost only about one-tenth of the original number.

This food, together with the people and the army, was not a problem for a full year.

And after all the preparations were completed, the news of his subordinates came again, and the Northern Qi army was already less than five miles!

On the wasteland, Zhao Yuanhui led his troops to gallop at a rapid pace!

It didn't take long for him to stop and wave.

"Bring me the map!"

The words fell, and the adjutant next to him hurriedly handed over the map.

Zhao Yuanhui looked at it carefully a few times, making sure that he was already very close to Shiye City, and then ordered loudly: "Everyone, speed up the march!" Be sure to get to Stone City before it gets dark! ”

"Yes!"

The army shouted in unison, and then a large number of men and horses rushed forward in a frenzied manner.

The slanting sun gradually set, and when the sky was completely dyed red by this slanting sun, Zhao Yuanhui's troops finally arrived outside Shiye City.

Looking at Shiye City in front of him, Zhao Yuanhui, as a general who had experienced a hundred battles, could see at a glance that there had been a big battle here not long ago!

If it weren't for the appointment with Xia Qingwu in advance, if it weren't for his own logistics, he didn't prepare enough food for this operation.

Otherwise, Zhao Yuanhui really couldn't help but include Shiye City in their Northern Qi territory.

"General, this is Shiye City."

The adjutant next to him rode his horse and stepped forward and said.

From a distance, Stone City looks like a black and low hill, stretching across the entire wasteland.

There are only a few trails around it, leading to the mountains and forests in the distance, which looks quite remote.

"Pass the order, besiege Shiye City, and don't attack!"

Zhao Yuanhui said coldly.

The adjutant took orders again and gave orders to the troops.

After half an hour, the army of 10,000 was divided into four directions, southeast, northwest and northwest, and surrounded Shiye City in the middle.

I don't fight, I don't harass, I just surround it.

"Next, it depends on when Xia Qingwu arrives."

"Set up camp! Ben is handsome, and he needs to have a good rest! Mobilize all the soldiers on patrol and strengthen the guard to prevent anyone from raiding the city! ”

Zhao Yuanhui gave a few more orders, and the soldiers set up camp on the spot, and also lit a bonfire to cook.

Except for the soldiers who went out to patrol, the other soldiers were as unrestrained and unguarded as if they were in their own Northern Qi.

In this regard, Lin Yiqiu, who was on the city tower not far away, was a little puzzled.

"What the hell are these guys doing?"

The army came, did not fight or attack, and just surrounded it.

If it's not a hole in the brain, it's idle and has nothing to do.

The so-called siege of the city either cuts off the grain and grass in the city, or directly breaks the city.

Otherwise, if you besiege the city, you must first ensure that your logistics are sufficient.

If you don't have enough food yourself, you will surround others?

People who die at the age of 60 go to survive the death of others at the age of 80?

Isn't this idiot?

But that's what the Northern Qi army did!

Not only that, but they don't seem to find it a problem at all!

"Overseer, why don't I take people out now and catch them off guard?"

The commander of the Right Guard at the bottom proposed.

Lin Yiqiu frowned, shook his head and said, "No, we still can't figure out their intentions." ”

"If you go out rashly, if you win the scheme, the gains outweigh the losses."

"Aren't they besieging the city? Then let them surround them, and we'll ours! It's time to eat! It's time to drink! ”

Waving his hand, Lin Yiqiu also took the same decision as Zhao Yuanhui.

And so, a very dramatic scene appeared.

The soldiers of the Northern Qi Dynasty below were roasting meat over a bonfire, and the forbidden army led by Lin Yiqiu in the city was also munching on meat and drinking!

The two sides didn't look like they were here to fight, but more like they were here to attend a bonfire.

But even so, Lin Yiqiu did not relax his guard in the slightest.

These Northern Qi soldiers are not sure when they will launch a sneak attack at night, so they have to be careful at all times!

But Lin Yiqiu was obviously thinking too much, and Zhao Yuanhui didn't seem to be interested in his city at all.

Around, just do nothing.

Every day, the camp camp is drilled on time, and the patrol team outside the camp is patrolled on time.

It was as if everything was like their own soldiers, as if this group of people had come to protect Shiye City.

Cang Hong was also completely confused.

"What is the purpose of these guys? Isn't it a waste of time to do nothing after you come? ”

Judging from Canghong's observation, the logistics of Zhao Yuanhui's troops are only about a month.

What can they do if they are surrounded for a month?

Not to mention Qianguo, it is estimated that reinforcements will arrive long ago within this month.

Even if you don't have reinforcements, you won't be able to survive the city's supplies!

Lin Yiqiu also shrugged his shoulders, speechless.

"Who knows what they're thinking, but looking at them like this, I think they seem like they're waiting for something!"

"Wait? What are you waiting for? ”

Cang Hong's brows furrowed.

Lin Yiqiu smiled: "It's just an intuition, I'm not sure." ”

"But they look like this, they don't do anything and are not in a hurry, they are either waiting for the right time, or they are waiting for someone, I can only explain it like this."
