Chapter 34: Desirelessness is Rigidity
At this time, in the Datang world.
Captain Tian Dajia, the commander of the 9th Regiment of the Quy Nhon Army, gathered the lieutenant, the two brigade commanders, and the four teams together to discuss what to do next, whether to continue to hold on or abandon Cyruburg?
Tian Dajia also invited Cui He, but Cui He refused to attend.
The reason given by Cui He was that he was only ordered to listen to the tune.
Tian Dajia first asked Lu Wen: "Li Yuanjun, what did he say?" β
"Whoa." Lu Wen crossed his hands and said, "Li Yuanjun said that he would send troops to help in the near future. β
"If so, we should continue to hold on." Tian Dajia said, "If Li Yuanjun sends a large army to vibrate, it will be half a month soon, and a month will be a month if it is slow, if you just insist on it, you can still do it." β
"I'm afraid it's not easy." Lieutenant Wang Chang said, "There are 500 stone grain and 100 barrels of stone grease transported back last night, and there is no shortage of supplies, but the west city wall is short and broken and has not yet covered bricks, and last night it was almost dug out of a big gap by the Tubo army, if the Tubo army uses siege vehicles to attack it again tonight, the city wall will definitely collapse." β
"The city wall will collapse, it's a big deal to fight for the life of the Tubo army." Brigade Marshal Du Qiandu said with a dark face.
"What you said is light, our ninth regiment is only two hundred people in total, how many days can we survive?" Another brigade commander, Lu Heng, immediately retorted, "I thought I should abandon the city." β
"It is a capital sin to forsake a city, and it shall be beheaded according to the law." Du Qian said angrily.
"Chop what?" Lu Heng said coldly, "We have been trapped alone in Selluburg for more than a month, and the army of Tian Envoy Jun is close at hand but he is reluctant to come to SelΓΌpburg for reinforcements, this matter is not to blame us, even if it is in front of the Feng Jieshuai, and even in front of the sage, our ninth regiment also has a clear conscience." β
"That's a good point." Deputy Lieutenant Wang Chang also said, "Our Ninth Regiment is worthy of the Tang Dynasty and worthy of the saint!" β
Du Qian didn't want to say anything more, anyway, Wang Chang didn't say anything about it, he had to listen to Tian Dajia.
At this time, Tian Dajia said faintly: "If we can know how the Tibetan army transported siege vehicles, well carts, ladders and other siege equipment to the military camp on the west side of Sayluburg, we can destroy the siege equipment of the Tubo army in advance, if so, it will be okay to hold Sayluburg for a month." β
"How do you know about this?" Deputy Lieutenant Wang Chang smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Only Lu Wen's expression suddenly moved, as if he had thought of something?
Tian Dajia asked, "Lu Wen, did you find anything?" β
"Whoa." Lu Wen crossed his hands and said, "Wen does have a guess. β
"Oh?" Tian Dajia was overjoyed and said, "Let's hear it." β
Several other people also pricked up their ears instantly.
Lu Wen said: "It's not clear here, why don't you ask the captain and your colleagues to move to the watchtower?" β
"Let's go, go to the watchtower." Tian Dajia immediately took the lieutenant, two brigade commanders, and four teams to the watchtower on the south side of the fort city, facing the Sailu River.
The view from this watchtower is wide.
The turbulent and fast-flowing River SelΓΌ is at the foot of this watchtower.
Lu Wen pointed to the Sailu River under his feet and said, "Captain Tian and your colleagues, the secret of the Tubo army is hidden in this turbulent Sailu River. β
"Hidden in the River Cyrus at the foot of here? What do you mean? β
Not only Tian Dajia, but also several lieutenants, brigade commanders, and team leaders were all confused and didn't understand at all.
Lu Wen coughed dryly, and then continued: "It means that the Tubo army in the east transported siege equipment and even supplies to the camp in the west through this Sailu River. β
"How is this possible? Siege engines are not ships. β
"Neither can boats, any boat will capsize in such a turbulent river."
"Transporting supplies from the river is even more wishful thinking, Lu Teamzheng, are you talking nonsense with us?"
In the face of everyone's doubts, Lu Wen said patiently: "Of course, the boats can't carry it, and the siege equipment can't be ferried from the Sailu River, but what if it's the wood after drying?" Have you ever heard of platoon? β
"Put it down?" Tian Dajia's heart moved, and several other people also reacted at once.
Of course, they are no strangers to the discharge of water, Fengshui and waterlogging in Guanzhong, and there are often people who release the discharge of wood cut from Nanshan to Chang'an.
The wooden rafts that are spliced together are much more resistant to the rushing rivers than the boats.
And the wooden rafts that stretch for miles or even tens of miles can really be used to transport supplies.
"I see!" Tian Dajia said with annoyance, "I said how did the Tubo dog transport tens of thousands of catties of siege equipment to the western camp?" And how their supplies are sent over, and the dare is sent from the SelΓΌ River! β
"But it's useless." Lieutenant Wang Chang questioned again, "Even if we know that the Tubo people transported wood and supplies to the western camp through the Sailu River, we still can't do anything about the Tubo people. β
"How can there be no way?" Brigade Commander Du Qian retorted, "We can intercept it." β
"How to intercept it?" Wang Chang said, "Let's not say that the Tubo people must be releasing the rafts at night, we can't see the wooden rafts in the river, and even if we can see them, we can't stop them, we can't send troops to jump into the Sailu River to intercept the wooden rafts, right?" So in the turbulent river, if a person jumps into it, can he still have a way to live? β
Several brigade commanders and team commanders immediately fell silent again.
In the end, it was Lu Wen who said: "Captain Tian, leave this matter to me." β
"Over to you?" Tian Dajia frowned and said, "Lu Wen, do you have a way?" β
Wang Chang also said in a tone of implicit warning: "Lu Wen, you must know that there is no joke in the army. β
Wang Chang's meaning is very clear, that is, Lu Wen, don't have anything to do, if you boast of Haikou but fail to intercept the wooden row in the end, the responsibility will be borne by you.
Lu Wen said without hesitation: "Wen is willing to set up a military order!" β
Wang Chang was furious, but Tian Dajia waved his hand and said: "Forget the military order, you just have to let it go, if you have any needs, just mention it to me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it for you." β
Lu Wen said: "Captain Tian, I need two bed crossbows, two winches, and ten bundles of hemp rope, and I must move here to the watchtower before it gets dark today." β
"No problem." Tian Dajia readily agreed.
As soon as Tian Dajia left, Wang Chang and Lu Heng also scolded and left.
Du Qian and several other teams did not leave, and they all took the initiative to walk to Lu Wen's side.
Since last night's point, Lu Wen's prestige in the Ninth Regiment has increased a lot.
Du Qian said to Lu Wen worriedly: "Old Lu, can you really do it?" You can't see the raft at all when the black lights on the river are blind, what do you use to intercept the raft? β
"Yes, Lao Lu, it is difficult for the big arrows shot by the bed crossbow to hit the wooden row."
"You can't send a brother who is good at water to jump into the river to grab a raft, because the water is so fast and the weather is cold."
Facing the worries of several colleagues, Lu Wen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a way." β
Lu Wen is not confident in himself, but in Xianzun, in his opinion, there is nothing in this world that Xianzun wants to do but can't do.
β¦β¦
At this time, on the other side, Lu Xiaoning came to a military supplies store.
After understanding the characteristics of low-light night vision devices and infrared night vision devices, Lu Xiaoning finally chose low-light night vision devices.
Because the main purpose of buying this night vision device is to discover the wooden platoon in the Sailu River, not to find the Tubo soldiers on the wooden platoon, so the low-light night vision device is obviously more applicable.
Lu Xiaoning is just a little worried, is it effective through the screen?
If the low-light night vision device can't be used, then the only way to fire a firebow is to fire.
Every once in a while, a flaming fire crossbow should be fired at the surface of the river, and the wooden rafts of the Tibetans should also be found, and then the bed crossbow can be used to join the interception, which is not difficult, after all, the Sailu River is not wide.
Lu Xiaoning bought a low-light night vision device, and when he was about to go back to the rental house, his mobile phone rang.
There was some surprise, but it was the boss of Huayi Company who called, probably because of his sudden resignation.
It's true, as soon as the phone was connected, Xia Liangming on the other end of the phone said with a smile: "Xiao Ning, you did a good job, why did you suddenly resign?" Is it because the wages are low? If the salary is low, just tell me. β
Lu Xiaoning was really flattered at this time, when did Xia Liangming become so easy to speak?
You must know that Xia Liangming often scolded Cao Yinlong and even Dai Jun to the point of blood, and the two of them didn't even dare to fart.
But what does a saying say? If you have no desire, you are strong, Lu Xiaoning doesn't plan to do it in Huayi, so she has nothing to fear.
So Lu Xiaoning said directly if he had something in his heart: "Mr. Xia, it's not about money, it's really Cao Yinlong's dog who deceives people too much, take Eminem, scold people at every turn, what kind of thing is he." β
Lu Xiaoning's mouth was not dry, but Xia Liangming was not angry.
Xia Liangming even laughed out loud: "Hahaha, that's right." β
