In the blink of an eye, Lin Xing's three-day time had arrived, and there was still no movement on the barbarian camp. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Originally, Lin Xing didn't plan to ask the appropriation to write any surrender letter and table, it was just a delaying tactic, taking advantage of this time to transport all the remaining troops across the river. Even if he wants to surrender, Lin Xing may not be willing: What are you going to do with my sister?

"Taishi, there are still some last grains and grass baggage being loaded on the ship, and all the men and horses are already in place!" Obo's smile was full of smiles, even though Lin Xing felt uncomfortable, that smile was a bit fake, so fake that people couldn't help but itch their hands when they saw his face, and they just wanted to step forward and smoke a few times.

Lin Xingqiang resisted the urge to pull people, and turned his face aside: "If the baggage equipment is delivered, the grain and grass will be spared! ”

"Excused?" Obo was stunned: "This can't be avoided, this is specially prepared by the Hou Ye for Master Taishi, if it is exempted, the next official will not return the explanation!"

This is really specially prepared by Eqi for Lin Xing and his merchant army, and in the middle, he also told Obo to add some ingredients to ensure that people eat people and have diarrhea, and horses eat horses and sparse.

"What nonsense?" Lin Xing was unhappy in his heart, this Obo was deliberate, right? Didn't you see that he wanted to whip him? And he went up the pole like this? Who do you say if one accidentally slaps you in the face?

The corners of Obo's mouth twitched twice, after all, he didn't dare to say anything more, it is said that this Taishi has a bad temper, and if he continues to provoke him, who dares to guarantee that he will not give himself small shoes to wear? As Wen Zhong said, there are a lot of fine grain and grass in the barbarian camp, even if the grain and grass prepared by Dong Bohou are transported over, he doesn't have to fix it? So he wisely chose to shut up.

At noon, a Malay raider suddenly reported that there was an unusual movement in the barbarian camp. Lin Xingxian swept it and found that the enemy army had begun to pull out of camp and had the tendency to retreat.

In his heart, it seems that the barbarian king is not ready to compromise, let the army withdraw into the rear checkpoint, and rely on the solidity of the city wall to defend the merchant army.

That's okay, Lin Xing didn't plan to accept the barbarian king's surrender, and if he dared to fight Zixuan's idea, he would have to pay the corresponding price. Otherwise, all the princes in the world think that the court is easy to bully, stab you and then admit your mistake casually, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world.

As for the conditions mentioned two days ago, they are just expedient, for fear that the barbarian army will come and make trouble again. This Eye of Loyalty is a bit unreliable, and the warning time is too short, in case I don't have time to react that time, I'm afraid it will make a big mistake.

If you want to leave, you can leave my grain and grass behind! Although there are 10,000 loads of grain and grass in the Vatu camp, there are so many people! Now more than 100,000 people are waiting for food, and the landlord's family has no room for it! After all, the cornucopia copy is too slow, and there is no joy in robbery!

"Someone!" Lin Xing gave an order, and immediately sent five thousand rangers as an assault team to disrupt the barbarian movements first, people can leave, and the grain and grass must not be allowed to be taken away smoothly, that is mine!

Sure enough, when the barbarian army saw the Shang army pursuing, they only hated their parents for missing two legs, to see who could run faster. Several battalion commanders, including several battalion commanders, gave orders: Retreat at full speed! Who can take care of the baggage, and even leave the camp that has not had time to be dismantled.

Lin Xing was very satisfied with this effect, and if people ran away, they would run away, and they would just leave things behind, and they would be able to feed the war with war! Leaving people as prisoners would also waste food.

After counting the harvest, the barbarian army retreated, leaving Lin Xing with tens of thousands of loads of grain and grass, enough for a month's rations for hundreds of thousands of merchant troops. There are also a lot of various ordnance and armor, but pretending to do this thing once didn't work, especially for siege warfare, it didn't play a role.

There are a lot of trebuchets and everything, all of which are improved miniature types, and Lin Xing prefers catapults relatively well. Although this trebuchet is flexible, it is only suitable for fighting on the plains, and its lethality is too small to pose a threat to the city walls.

As for the crossbow or something, I didn't find it, if there was that kind of killing weapon, and the barbarian army was still so vulnerable, it could be called a nest!

The strongholds along the river are mainly garrisoned, and naturally there are no siege equipment such as ladders, so you have to build some more by yourself.

After the inventory was completed, the generals were temporarily convened in the barbarian camp to discuss what should be done next. The people of the country have begun to get used to Lin Xing's approach, and they quite agree. Once the suggestion is adopted, the Taishi will be rewarded, and these are secondary. The most important thing is the sense of accomplishment when he sees the effect of his plan, which he has never experienced in Nanbohou before.

The atmosphere of the venue was quite warm, and the understanding of the generals of Hubei about Jiangnan was not comparable to that of the generals of the merchant army: the two places looked at each other across the river, and there were many contacts before the rebellion, and they had a certain understanding of the terrain and customs, regardless of the terrain and customs.

In view of these, many constructive suggestions were put forward. In particular, Ezhou, which is about to be faced, is the birthplace of Ezhou, and later due to some reasons, Ezhou was transferred to Jiangbei, and Jiangnan was occupied by Jingman.

Obo Tie blushed and said nothing, secretly scolding in his heart that these generals of the Ebo country are really not things, and they are all white-eyed wolves. Dedicating such a good strategy to Wen Zhong, didn't he make it clear that he would let the merchant army make meritorious contributions, and he forgot the explanation of Hou Ye before leaving? For the sake of a little petty profit, he forgot all about it! If you really have milk, you are a mother, and I am a father!

Lin Xing summarized the opinions of the generals and roughly came up with several pieces of information. The city in front is called Ezhou, built by the mountain, the area is not large, and the radius is only a few miles. It is all built of mountains and stones, so some people call it Stone Town.

There are not too many residents in the city, there are about a few thousand, mainly to make some supplies for the strongholds along the river, and the defense is low. Of course, it is said that in the past, there are now nearly 100,000 barbarian troops stationed in it, and even if it is just an ordinary camp, it can be called impregnable.

The city wall is about a few zhang high, and the defenders are more than 100,000, which is also talking about the situation when there are no barbarian reinforcements coming. If the barbarian king increases his troops, I am afraid it can reach hundreds of thousands. Such a small space is simply a level stacked with people.

As for how to attack, there are also many suggestions. However, most of them were in favor of besieging the city and cutting off its food and water sources, and the city was not attacked.

Lin Xing, who came up with this idea, only rolled his eyes, didn't he hear that there was a cloud in the art of war: five to attack it, and ten to surround it. Use hundreds of thousands of people to besiege hundreds of thousands of people, big brother, are you playing with me?

Even if we take a step back, what can we do if we can encircle Ezhou with water? Jiangnan is a land of fish and rice, and the grain and grass brought by a few battalions of barbarian troops is enough for more than 100,000 merchant troops to eat for a month, not to mention the city of Ezhou, which is used as a supply.

As for cutting off the water source, it is even more nonsense, the water level in the south of the Yangtze River is shallow, and the big pits will seep water outward by themselves, so how many wells can a large city have?

This is also the result of the generals' blind worship of Lin Xing, this thing will besiege other people's cities at every turn, no matter how many people they have. However, there is no comparison with the Meng side here, unless Lin Xing's brain is in water.
