Chapter 688: It's hard to ride a tiger

"The closest to Bafang City is Zhenshui Pass, less than a hundred miles, the Crusader army can arrive in three days at most, if you have any proposals, just say it. "Zhao Yuan knew that when he was not brave at this time, he could only accept advice, after all, he was no longer only a dozen cosmic hunters to follow, behind him, there were hundreds of thousands of residents of Bafang City.

Now, Zhao Yuan had an exact understanding of the population of Bafang City.

The population of Bafang City far exceeded Zhao Yuan's imagination, with a total population of more than 200,000, and it did not include the population of the surrounding villages and towns.

Now, because the good news of Bafang City is passed out, the surrounding villagers are coming from all directions, and the population is surging rapidly, according to the current rate, it will soon exceed 300,000, and once the news is passed out, there will be more and more stragglers who defect, and Bafang City will be under tremendous pressure.

For Zhao Yuan, there were only two choices, first, lead the people of Bafang City to flee and kill all the way to Blackwater City, and second, stay in Bafang City and hold on, contain part of the Crusaders' troops, and wait for Guo Axe to rescue.

However, Zhao Yuan knows very well that whether it is the first or the second, it is impossible to achieve.

Leading hundreds of thousands of people to flee is simply a dream, not to mention attacking cities and territories all the way, and the problem of feeding hundreds of thousands of people alone cannot be solved.

As for the second one, it is even more unfeasible, because Bafang City is a lonely city, and Bafang City is a plain city, which is not suitable for defense at all, and more importantly, Bafang City does not have much food, so it is not suitable for defending.

As for Guo Axe's rescue, Zhao Yuan himself felt unreliable, putting aside the distance of thousands of miles, it is estimated that Guo Axe is now too busy to take care of himself, even if he knows that he is trapped in Bafang City, it is impossible to leave the emperor to rescue this lonely city that has no military value.

Zhao Yuan is already in a dilemma, and it is difficult to ride a tiger.

The stragglers and villagers who came from all over the world would soon become a heavy burden on the city, and once they ran out of food, they would become a mob, and when the time came, the city would be defeated without the crusaders.

When he was in Wanjia, Zhao Yuan had seen the power of the mob.

Now, Zhao Yuan only hopes that God can arrange a figure similar to Zhuge Liang of the earth to give him advice, and as for the war, he will leave it to him......

Zhao Yuan has an advantage, he thinks that what he can't do, he will never know how to pretend to understand, so he summoned people, as the so-called one person counts the short, and the two count the long.

At first, people were still afraid of Zhao Yuan and did not dare to speak out, but after someone put forward their own opinions, people began to express their opinions one after another.

As Zhao Yuan guessed, after the fanaticism, the soldiers and civilians of Bafang City immediately realized the current difficult environment of Bafang City after calming down.

There is no foreign aid.

There is no food.

There are no war horse weapons.

There is no logistical supply.

There is no trained army......

......

Yes, it is full of enthusiasm.

Anyone with a little military knowledge knows that when the gap between the weapons and military qualities of the two sides is too great, it is not difficult for fanaticism to make up for the gap.

At this time, although there are hundreds of thousands of people in Bafang City, it is estimated that there are less than 20,000 people who can really go to the battlefield to fight, and after short-term training, it may exceed 50,000.

"General, I think that Bafang City is not suitable to be defended, it is better to ......" A squire with thick eyebrows and leopard eyes suddenly stood up and said.

Say. Zhao Yuan had long noticed this richly dressed, rugged-looking, and burly squire, because, from beginning to end, he was listening quietly.

"Bafang City is not a dangerous place, nor is it a place where soldiers must fight, if I were a crusader, I would not adopt the strategy of attacking by force......"

"How is it?" Zhao Yuan looked at the rugged squire with interest.

"I will hold a few passages in Bafang City, block Bafang City, only allow entry and not exit, when the time comes, there is no need to send troops to attack, after the food is eaten, Bafang City will not attack itself......"

"Well, yes, whether it is an attack or a siege, it is not good news for Bafang City, I wonder if Your Excellency Dao has a good way?" Zhao Yuan nodded, this rough man is thick on the outside and careful on the inside, and he is the easiest to get ahead in this turbulent period.

"General, the villain is the owner of the Doghead Villa, Tu Lao Er. When the rugged man saw that Zhao Yuan was appreciating, he was immediately flattered, and he smiled and flattered.

"Kotou Villa......" Zhao Yuan coughed and smiled.

"Hehe, the general smiled, although our doghead villa is not a famous family in the Great Qin Empire, but in this Bafang City, it is famous, what does the general need to cooperate, tell me Tu Lao Er, Tu Lao Er more than two hundred catties, and hand it over to the general." ”

"Okay, okay! I like Brother Tu's bold temperament, if Brother Tu has any suggestions, it doesn't hurt to say it directly. Zhao Yuan stroked his palm and said with a smile.

"Brother Tu...... General, you are going to kill Tu Lao Er......" Tu Lao Er was slaughtered by Zhao Yuan, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he gave up his hand again and again.

"Brother Tu looks like a man of temperament, why bother with this worldly etiquette, I'm still waiting for Brother Tu's advice," Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

“...... General, Tu Lao Er thinks that this Bafang City is a Jedi, once the city is broken, it will be the day of the slaughter of the city, since this is the case, just don't do it endlessly, and kill it!" Tu Lao Er hesitated at first, and when he said the back, he was full of spirit and pride.

"Tu Lao Er can't ......"

"Tu Lao Er, hundreds of thousands of people in Bafang City, it is difficult to follow the army......"

"Tu Lao Er, still wait for the general's arrangement. ”

“......”

As soon as Tu Laoer's words fell, a group of squires from Bafang City objected, but a group of officers and soldiers of the Great Qin Empire agreed with Tu Laoer's proposal.

Zhao Yuan fell into silence for a while.

Tu Lao Er's suggestion has also been thought about, but this suggestion is not the most optimal choice, after all, killing out of Lu means abandoning Bafang City, and besides, weapons, food and grass are all a problem.

"Everyone, don't worry, the Crusaders will not attack Bafang City for the time being, and we still have time to come up with a foolproof plan

Zhao Yuan stood up and prepared to adjourn the meeting.

Now, Zhao Yuan needs a moment to synthesize some information and come to an optimal conclusion.

In "Ten Thousand Enemies", in addition to cultivating the strength of the body, the enlightenment of intelligence is not inferior to the cultivation of the body, when Zhao Yuan cultivated the realm of "quiet", his computing ability improved by leaps and bounds, and he was able to survive the most difficult period, which was completely benefited from the development of the brain domain in "Ten Thousand Enemies".

"General, as long as the general is willing to send troops, my second child's doghead villa is willing to spend all his wealth!" Tu Lao Er saw that Zhao Yuan did not adopt his opinion, and immediately became anxious.

Suddenly, there was silence in the entire chamber.

Zhao Yuan felt strange, and when he turned around, he saw that all the squires and rich people in Bafang City looked at Tu Lao Er with shocked expressions, and their expressions were full of incredulity.

Zhao Yuan immediately realized something, and his eyes fell on Tu Lao Er.

"General, this is the time of life and death, I hope the general will think twice, I Tu Lao Er, I am willing to follow the general on behalf of the Tu family, even if it is on the knife mountain and down the sea of fire!" Tu Lao Er's face was resolute.

Zhao Yuan felt the frightened expressions of the squires around him.

Obviously, this Tu Lao Er is not a simple character, otherwise, they would not have such an expression.

"General, the Dog Head Villa is the largest private property in Bafang City, and the Tu family is also the richest family in Bafang City, and in the entire Bafang City, half of the land is the private property of the Tu family......" Dongzi saw Zhao Yuan's thoughts, and hurriedly leaned over and said softly.

"Understood!" Zhao Yuan nodded meaningfully at Tu Er.

Under the awe-inspiring gaze of everyone, Zhao Yuan strode out of the conference hall, while Tu Lao Er sat on the chair with a lonely face.

The first day passed without any danger.

The crusaders did not appear, but more and more refugees came from all directions.

It is certain that among the refugees, there must be spies of the Crusaders, but at present, Zhao Yuan has no way to prevent the leakage of information in Bafang City.

The current Bafang City, to put it bluntly, is an undefended city, and the broken city walls cannot play a defensive role at all.

The population of Bafang City is increasing, and in just one day, there is a shortage of food, because many merchants are reluctant to sell, and more people are hoarding food.

For three days in a row, Zhao Yuan did not make any moves, and after these three days, turmoil began to occur in Bafang City, some people robbed in the street, and some people rushed into the tavern to eat the overlord meal......
