In the endless wilderness, thousands of trembling Jiangdong civilians were dismantling the antlers of the horse and deer in front of them under the cover of shields and shields, braving the rain of countless arrows.
Companions around them kept wailing and lying down after being hit by arrows, and sharp arrows with cold light kept flying over their heads.
Although these thousands of Jiangdong civilians were afraid in their hearts, under the fierce urging of the Jiangdong soldiers hiding behind them, these thousands of Jiangdong civilians could only risk death and work hard and quickly to clean up the horses in front of them. antlers.
In the area a few feet in front of the deer horns outside the public security city, many corpses had fallen, including those of Jiangdong soldiers and civilians.
Those corpses lay scattered all over the field. At this time, within a few feet of land, not only was there a strong smell of blood, but also bursts of pungent burnt smell.
The sun in the sky shines from the sky to the earth. At this moment, on the earth outside the public security city wall, the earth that was originally covered by loess has changed color, and the whole earth is filled with charred black and blood-red colors.
Many places on the earth were still burning with flames, and as combustibles, in addition to the dismantled horses, there were also human corpses.
After a long time, the soldiers and civilians from Jiangdong retreated, and the Jingzhou soldiers in the public security city also got a rare chance to breathe.
In the past few days, Lu Meng tried to prevent Mi Yang from having a chance to breathe, but also to consume the arrows in the city.
Almost every morning, Lu Meng would organize a large army to launch a fierce attack on Gong'an City, and this fierce attack would often last for a whole day.
Lü Meng was worthy of being a world-famous general. He knew that his side had an absolute advantage in military strength, so he gave full play to his advantage.
In the past few days, he continuously sent countless civilians and soldiers from Jiangdong to work together to forcefully break down the antlers of the horse in front of the moat.
Whenever Mi Yang, as usual, ordered the soldiers on the city wall to set off rockets in order to destroy the siege equipment.
Lu Meng, who had already learned a lesson, immediately ordered the Jiangdong soldiers to slowly retreat with their siege equipment.
Leaving the peasants in front, he carried his shield and dismantled the antlers of the horse.
When these thousands of civilians and Jiangdong soldiers were tired, Lu Meng ordered the next batch of civilians and Jiangdong soldiers in the military camp to come forward with shields.
Because Lu Meng had a numerical advantage, he could constantly rotate Jiangdong soldiers forward, and could attack continuously all day long until dark.
But Mi Yang can't.
There are only so many troops in the public security city, and the guards have to be dispersed among the four cities.
Lu Meng's army could rest in rotation, but the soldiers on the city wall could not.
The Juma Deer Antlers outside the moat are the first line of defense of the public security city and are the only place where Mi Yang, the defender of the city, must save them.
Lü Meng had to attack the enemy in recent days and must rescue them. This led to the Jingzhou soldiers in the public security city. They often had to stand on the city wall and maintain a high degree of mental tension at all times to resist the attacks of Lü Meng's army again and again.
In addition, in order not to give Mi Yang a chance to break out of the encirclement, Lu Meng set up his army's camp not far outside Gong'an City.
Under his command, he connected the Jiangdong army's four camps built around the four city walls.
One hundred thousand troops joined forces from all sides and surrounded the public security city.
At the same time, the large camp where nearly 200,000 people lived stretched for several miles, with no end as far as the eye could see.
This invisibly caused great psychological pressure on the Jingzhou defenders on the city wall.
In order to prevent Mi Yang and his soldiers from getting enough rest, Lu Meng also ordered the soldiers in the camp to hold open fires high and beat war drums at night, always pretending to attack at night.
This move undoubtedly kept everyone in the Public Security City tense day and night.
And this situation has been going on for several days!
If it weren't for Mi Yang's previous favor and the prestige of just winning a big victory, the soldiers in the public security city would have collapsed by now.
But continuing like this for a long time is not a long-term solution after all.
Mi Yang, who had just finished commanding, was leaning against the battlements.
Because he had not rested for many days, his face was full of sleepiness.
His chin was already covered with dense stubble, and his eyes were bloodshot, and his whole person seemed to have lost weight.
Mi Yang leaned on the battlement, because it was the time for Jiangdong's army to "change shifts", so he and the soldiers on the wall could take a short rest.
In the past few days, the soldiers on the city wall had not rested, and Mi Yang, as the general, had never left the city for a moment.
He has been on the city wall, accompanying the soldiers in the public security city to defend the city.
It was precisely because of his example that the morale of the soldiers in the police city did not drop too much.
At this time, Mi Yang put one hand on his half-bent leg, and the other hand tightly grasped the command flag of the commanding soldiers, while he held a herb in his mouth.
The herbal medicine in Mi Yang's mouth was given to him by Mi Zhong.
According to Mi Zhong, this herb has the effect of promoting fluid production, relieving pain, refreshing the mind and calming the brain.
Not only had Mi Yang not slept in the past few days, but he had also been shouting loudly in order to command the soldiers on the city wall.
His voice is almost useless.
If it weren't for the herbs provided by Mi Zhong to soothe his throat, Mi Yang would probably have had another voice change in his adulthood.
Mi Yang kept chewing the herbs in her mouth, and then she couldn't help but choked.
Damn, this herbal medicine is very effective, but it’s also really bitter!
It's not that Mi Yang hasn't slept for several days in a row. In his previous life, he didn't stay up all night just to play games.
But unlike my roommates who stayed up late and stayed up late, it was a time full of joy.
Nowadays, it is necessary to remain mentally tense and unable to fall asleep. People who have not experienced this situation cannot understand the pain involved.
No wonder in Chinese history, as long as you can defend your city in the face of enemy forces several times your own, you will later become famous and be hailed as a famous general.
Such as Hao Zhao in this period, such as Zhu Wenzheng in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties.
It's not that the threshold for famous generals is too low, it's that the task of defending the city is really not done by humans.
Especially when there are a huge number of enemy troops and one's own side can only use tactics and tactics for the time being, the process is really uncomfortable.
Mi Yang's choking sound immediately attracted the attention of several people near him.
One person immediately woke up from the state of mind with his eyes closed, thinking that Jiangdong's army was attacking again.
In the past few days, all the soldiers in the public security city had been made extremely nervous by Lu Meng.
This person is Mi Zhong.
After Mi Zhong woke up, he immediately stood up and took a look around the city. Seeing that the enemy had not yet arrived, he asked Mi Yang in disbelief,
"Sir, the Jiangdong thieves are here again?"
Now seeing Mi Zhong, who had always been steady in the past, becoming a little nervous, Mi Yang couldn't help but become more and more worried about the future of the Public Security City.
Mi Yang shook his head at Mi Zhong and said comfortingly, "Jiangdong will not attack again so soon."
During this period of time, Mi Yang, who is good at observing, discovered that the "shift change" of Lu Meng's army took about half an hour each time.
In this era without instant communication, and as Jiangdong soldiers have not been trained in the training methods of later generations of the People's Army,
Jiangdong's army was able to slowly withdraw from the battlefield within half an hour, and then rejoin the battlefield with new fresh troops. This was considered an efficient operation brought about by Lu Meng's skillful command.
The Jiangdong army will "change shifts" about four times every day.
Therefore, these two hours have been a rare rest time for the guards in the police city.
Not only the east gate of Public Security City is like this, but now the four walls of Public Security City are facing the same situation.
It's just that the east gate is Lu Meng's main attack direction, so the situation is more serious.
