There is no need to elaborate on the matter of loud thunder and light rain.
Soon, Zhang Guang's head of excitement passed. When all the Mongolian soldiers put on their armor and picked up their weapons, the archers pulled their bows and warmed their fingers.
In short, after the Meng Yuan soldiers consumed a lot of physical strength.
Wu Nianjun, who was on the opposite hilltop, carried the ladder and headed back home.
It's like saying.
"Brother, I'm just having fun, don't mind."
Zhang Guang climbed up to the watchtower and saw all this situation. His face suddenly turned pale.
He was not stupid and immediately understood Wu Nian's intention.
This makes it difficult for him to sleep and eat well.
But there was nothing he could do. He looked back at the Meng Yuan soldiers in his stronghold. Ten days had passed, and their morale and vigor had been exhausted. They ate half full every day and suffered from cold. Many soldiers had lost weight.
In the current situation, clearing the snow and fighting out would only result in a loss of life.
"You're trying to hang me up and beat me up." Zhang Guang clenched his fists and his whole body trembled. He wanted to pull out his knife and go up to fight Wu Nian. But he didn't act for a long time.
Finally, under the gaze of all the Mongolian soldiers, Zhang Guang climbed down from the watchtower and landed on the ground. He sent someone to summon the centurions, and the group came to sit down in the tent.
Inside the big tent. The fire in the furnace burned vigorously, dispelling the coldness in their bodies, but it could not dispel the coldness in their hearts.
"What should we do now?" Zhang Guang had no idea. He raised his head and looked at the centurions, his eyes full of hope.
Centurions, you look at me and I look at you. They are all silent and look ugly.
This is a conspiracy.
A skinned monkey seemed to appear in front of their eyes.
I will harass you, I will harass you, I will harass you.
How?
That's right.
Damn monkey.
Monkeys they can't catch, monkeys they can't kill.
Zhang Guang and the centurions dispersed without discussing why they came. The Meng Yuan warriors were summoned back.
Only a small number of troops were left for guarding and patrolling, while the rest went back to their tents to conserve their strength and resist the severe cold.
But Wu Nian did not let the Meng Yuan people rest. He does it twice in the morning, twice in the afternoon, and once in the evening. A total of five "sneak attacks" were launched in one day, causing the Meng Yuan people to jump up and down.
It consumes a lot of physical energy.
Faced with physical exhaustion and pale-faced soldiers, Zhang Guang had no choice but to increase today's food supplies. If they don't let the soldiers have enough to eat, they will collapse without waiting for Wu Nian to kill them.
Wu Nian launched five sneak attacks that day, but gave Zhang Guang another day of rest the next day. The way of civil and military affairs is relaxed and relaxed.
Boil the frog in warm water.
If possible, Wu Nian also hoped that Zhang Guangneng would continue to weaken in the village and wait for reinforcements, rather than making a desperate move to fight out.
Beishan Fort.
Li Yong sat in Beishan Fort and commanded the militia to patrol and defend. The common people also live a regular life every day under the leadership of their respective "pavilion chiefs".
In fact, there is not much food in Beishan Fort, and the people are currently under a rationing system. But it would be good if he could survive. Besides, Wu Nian continuously defeated the Meng Yuan people and had a high prestige.
Even if the people have complaints, they dare not speak out.
During this period, the state of Beishan Fort can only be described in two words.
Fishing.
Fishing in the literal sense.
Li Yong only sent spies to watch Jin Huanshan's actions, but nothing else was done. But the people of Yingqing Mansion came one after another.
In this short period of time, the population of Beishan Fort increased by 2,000 people, and people continued to come in.
Their goal is very clear, to join Beishan Fort, unite around Wu Nian, the general who assisted the Han Dynasty, and fight the war of resistance.
People have human nature, rats have human nature.
If Jin Huanshan's army wants to come in, they can only take the main road and the official road. Now Li Yong has not only blocked the north road, but also blocked the southeast and west roads.
The soldiers and horses of Jinhuan Mountain are still marching at a snail's pace through thorns and thorns.
But for the common people, it's different. As long as they have a guide, push a cart, or even carry a tent and some food on their backs, and walk on a small road, they can reach Beishan Fort.
The army cannot do this. The army must carry a huge amount of baggage, food and fodder.
Beishan Fort is like a fisherman fishing in the river. If you fish casually, you can catch some common people.
A veritable fisherman.
morning. The sun is very big, but it only illuminates the sky and the earth and does not bring much warmth. The severe cold is like a fine needle, penetrating every hole.
At the southern city gate of Beishan Fort, the gate is tightly closed. The militiamen wore thick cotton-padded jackets and stood guard on the city with spears and big guns.
Soon after, they spotted a group of people approaching.
The militiamen immediately called to their companions, and a group of archers came over, ready with their bows and arrows bent.
"Who?" A militia officer leaned out and asked loudly.
"Brothers in the city, don't shoot arrows. We are scattered military households. We heard about General Wu's name in Beishan Fort and came here to join us."
There was a strong man at the bottom of the city, clasping his fists at the top of the city and saying.
There were twenty-three people in their group, including men and women. There was also a woman holding a baby, shivering in the wind.
The militiamen have seen a lot of people like this during this period.
That's how the two thousand new people came, they didn't just pour in all at once.
Come a little, and a little more every day.
"Wait a moment." The militia officer did not relax his vigilance. After saying this, he gathered fifty people, fully armed and watching eagerly. Then he opened the city gate and let the twenty-three people come in. They did a search. Check to see if they are armed.
No accidents occurred.
Beishan Fort population +23.
After entering Beishan Fort, the strongest men among the twenty-three will be assigned to join the militia. The old, weak, women and children were incorporated into private households and managed separately.
The population of Beishan Fort increased by two thousand, and the militia increased by four hundred.
Li Yong will also be responsible for simple training.
simply put.
As time passed, Beishan Fort became stronger and stronger, Zhang Guang became weaker and weaker, but no one in Jin Huanshan was seen.
Can't get in.
Thirty days later, Wu Nian planned to launch an attack.
If possible, he planned to wait.
However, according to Li Yong's news, Jin Huanshan led his troops and advanced through the mountains. They are now quite close to Beishan Fort.
Jin Huanshan cannot be given the opportunity to take away these last more than a thousand Mongolian and Yuan soldiers.
morning.
Inside the tent.
Wu Nian, Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng sat around the stove. Wu Nian looked up at the two men and said: "It is impossible to fight head-on. We will launch a night attack tonight. You two will each lead a team of troops and attack Mangya Mountain from two directions."
"There is no need to clear the snow, just walk on the snow. Although it is difficult to walk, it is much easier than clearing the snow."
"And it's still a test. If their resistance is still strong, then retreat."
"If they don't resist tenaciously, then charge in."
"Remember, we are not going to fight head-on with the Mongolians. We want our soldiers to kill the most Mongolians at the lowest cost."
