Chapter 181

"Dugong praised it." Hearing this, Liu Qi immediately bowed and said.

"This is definitely not a ridiculous thing." Li Gong waved his hand and looked at Wang Sheng and others. The people immediately said:

"Liu Duwei, the Protector said it well. If you hadn't insisted on fighting with the great cannibals, then we might really have to wait for death now."

"Yes, yes, if the big cannibals attack the city like this, if the general situation is, although the enemy will definitely suffer heavy losses, the city will not be able to be defended."

"You should indeed be rewarded by Lieutenant Liu."

Although the three of them said these words at Li Gong's instructions, they were not lies. No one expected that the cannibal would attack like this. If they really defended the city wall, the Luzhou City would definitely not be able to defend it. Instead, because Li Gong adopted Liu Qi's strategy to gain a little chance in order to defend the Luzhou City.

"My subordinates are also negligent and dare not be the words of the charity as a reward." Liu Qi still said.

"Forget it, no matter what, the battle to defend the city is not over yet. Even if you should reward you, you will not reward you at this time." Li Gong said again: "The most important thing at this time is to defend the city of Luzhou."

"Liu Qi, generals, according to the original plan, the entire army abandoned the city wall and retreated to the city when the Great Cannibal siege was very fierce. However, the Great Cannibal siege was very fierce, but the tunnel was not completely dug up, and it must be held for at least four days."

"How to avoid too many soldiers' casualties, but hold on for at least five days?"

"The guardian, the subordinates believe that they can only no longer cherish the use of boiling wood stones and boiling water and boiling oil." Liu Qi said: "Tomorrow, we will use catapults, regardless of consumption, and boiling water and boiling oil. We will use as much as the big cannibal uses, so that we can avoid too many casualties and injuries in soldiers."

"Doing this can indeed prevent too many soldiers from suffering tomorrow, but what should I do if I do in the next three days?" Wang Sheng asked.

"Pick up the stones fired by the Dashi Catstone Cart." Liu Qi said with a smile: "The Regent of Dashi Gai Bo Silin launched such a fierce attack, and he must have wanted to take down the city in one go."

"He saw our army using catapults in large quantities, rolling wood stones and boiling water and boiling oil. In order to avoid losing momentum, he would definitely use more catapults to launch stones. Many of them would fall on the top of the city and can be picked up for use."

"That cannot make up for the loss," Meng Chengkang said.

"We just need to stay in the city for four more days and retreat from the city, what is the use of catapults and stones for our army? You can't use catapults in the city. So it's best to consume the stones on the fourth night." Liu Qi replied again.

"It's true," Zhao Guangmi suddenly realized: "Not only are the rolling wood and stones, but also the boiling oil and water are of no use in street fighting. It's best to use up light on the fourth day."

Because of their past thinking style of defending the city, they always felt that they should keep some rolling wood stones and boiling oil and boiling water when they were most urgent, but they didn't want to fight street battles later and didn't need to leave things for later use.

"Okay. Then do this." Li Gong didn't expect this because of his fixed thinking style and smiled: "Wei Duliu really has a broad mind."

"The Protector misappropriated him." Liu Qi bowed again.

"Although you have made mistakes, now it is time to use troops. I will not punish you three and continue to command the soldiers to defend the city." Li Gong said to Wang Sheng and the other three again.

"Yes." The three of them hurriedly agreed.

"There are a few more things," Liu Qi saw Li Gong that there was nothing to say today, so he hurriedly said: "Protector, since he will fight street battles with the Great Cannibal in the city in four days, he will tell the soldiers about this tomorrow, otherwise it will only cause chaos and cannot resist the Great Cannibal."

"Secondly, the blacksmiths in the city must also be moved underground immediately. Because the blacksmiths can repair damaged weapons, they will be kept in the city in order to repair them as soon as possible. But since street fighting will be carried out in four days, they cannot continue to stay on the ground."

"The third is to step up training of nurses." Liu Qi said: "The wounded soldiers must be treated as soon as possible, and this depends on the doctor and nurse level. The doctor has no way to help them improve their medical skills, but nurses can continue to improve their standards."

"Do you want to leave many nurses in the tunnel in the city?" Li Gong suddenly asked.

“That’s exactly that.”

"This matter is probably not easy to deal with." Li Gong said again. In the past, there were only military prostitutes in the army. There were so many young women who stayed in the city, so they probably wouldn't want them, and their families wouldn't want them.

"Then let them all stay in Hebei Camp for the time being." Liu Qi didn't insist. Establishing a nurse was a shocking move in this era. It was not easy for him to build it up and would not require too much.

"You can do it as you said to Li Duwei Liu." Li Gong said to Wang Sheng and the other three and Zhang Cheng.

"Yes." The four of them agreed and bowed and left.

After the four people left, Liu Qi also bowed and left. But Li Gong asked again: "Liu Qi, do you think street fighting can defeat the cannibal?"

"Why did the Protector suddenly ask this?"

"The big cannibals seized the city walls very quickly. Although they had never fought street battles, would they easily defeat our Tang army?"

"The Protector, my subordinates are full of confidence in street fighting and will never be defeated by the cannibals."

"Really?" Li Gong asked back. It was obvious that his confidence was still insufficient.

"The Protector, I don't say much about it. At this time, besides fighting with the great cannibals, are there any other opportunities to win?" Liu Qi also asked back.

"You are right, you are right." Li Gong instantly understood what Liu Qi meant, lowered his head and muttered a few words, and raised his head and had already smiled: "Liu Qi, you go back."

"Yes." Liu Qi agreed and turned around and left.

...

The next day, when the Great Trouble Pu attacked the city, he realized something was wrong. Today, the man Qin seemed to have no concerns about the lost catapult carts and stones, and ordered his soldiers to continuously launch stones under the city. Although he had his own catapult carts to support him, the Great Trouble soldiers were still unable to approach the city wall for a while, and the rhythm of the siege was disrupted.

Seeing this, Bingbo Silin immediately ordered the catapult car to push forward and shoot against the city. The so-called "one-stop" movement will be in vain, and the second will decline, and the third will be exhausted. The rhythm of the siege must not be disrupted, otherwise all the soldiers who died in battle yesterday will die in vain.

The catapult cart on the front of the city also began to be destroyed, but the Qin man ignored it and still fired stones crazily. Bingbo Silin ordered: "No matter how many stones the Qin man's catapult cart on the front of the city fired, our army must have more than them!"

After hearing this order, Saleh and Houmede no longer took care of it, and all kinds of siege equipment were used as if they were not worth the money. With the cooperation of siege equipment, the big food soldiers finally attacked the top of the city.

But that's all today. The Great Food Army was unable to gain a foothold on the city and was driven down three times in the attacks. It can only admit that the siege today also failed.

However, Bingbo Silin was not worried. There would not be too many cities guarding equipment in the city. If the Qin man used it like this, it would definitely be consumed within ten days according to the most cautious estimate. ‘The moment your cities guarding equipment is consumed, it is the time when our army enters the city. I will order people to identify all of you Qin or Turkic people one by one.’

As he guessed, the next day, the third day of the siege, the frequency of using the Qin man's catapult car was greatly slowed down. Although he was still trying his best to launch stones, Bingbo Silin could already imagine the dilemma of Qin man's lack of stones.

On the fourth day, the catapult was used even more frequently, and Bo Xilin found that the Qin man was using a large number of stones they fired to the city. He looked at it with disdain: 90% of the stones that the Qin man fired to the ground were fired to the city by our army, which shows that their stones had been consumed.'

"Governor, have you stopped using the catapult to prevent the stone from being stolen by the Qin man?" Saleh also asked intently.

"No need." At that time, Bianbo Silin replied: "There is no need to do this. If they are willing to use it, let them use it well. They can pick up less than one-fifth of the stones fired by our army. Stop using the catapult is equivalent to choking and cannot do this."

"Yes." Saleh agreed and continued to command the soldiers of his post to attack the city. After a while, Houmede also learned of the governor's order and re-used the catapult on a large scale.

On this day, the Qin army went to great lengths to defend the city.

On the fifth day, this day was more intense than the previous four days since the siege. Bingbo Silin noticed that it was very difficult for Qin to defend the city wall yesterday, and he was lucky to have not been seized. If you work harder today, you will definitely be able to seize the city wall.

The man Qin also used his only city-guarding equipment crazily, but it was quickly consumed. Only the catapult cart could fire occasionally; the arrows of the archers became sparse.

The Qin soldiers, who lacked the support of the city guarding equipment, gradually could not block the enemy soldiers under the city. The Great Food soldiers climbed up to the top of the city and fought against the Qin soldiers. One after another, the Great Food soldiers were killed or beaten down at the top of the city, but more and more people climbed up.

The general Qin seemed to be anxious and sent a reserve team again. After all, there were fewer large-scale soldiers who could climb the city than Qin's soldiers at the city. They were very tired of climbing the city wall. They were not the opponent of the reserve team, and they were driven down from the city at noon.

Bingbo Silin's face changed again and again with the situation at the city. When someone attacked the city in the first round of siege, he smiled and talked and laughed with the generals behind him. However, his face became serious without attacking the city for several consecutive rounds. Finally, until noon, all the soldiers siege were driven down from the city, and his face became completely unfair.

"I won't give that man Qin a breath at noon, and I will send someone to attack the city. I will definitely capture Luzhou City today!" he shouted.

Under the order of Bingbo Silin, a new group of soldiers siege began to climb the city, and then repeated again.

Finally, when the sun was about to set, a guard in the south of the city seemed to lose morale after the Great Food soldiers attacked the city again, and many soldiers were still resisting the fleeing regardless of their comrades.

The other soldiers could not resist the Great Food soldiers who had climbed up to the city. After fighting for a while, they fled one after another. Even if the reserve team arrived, they could not drive the enemy soldiers down.

The Great Cannibal finally occupied a city wall; or in other words, the Luzhou City was finally defeated by the Great Cannibal.
