Twenty-three days later, on May 25, the second year of Qianyuan, the Tang Dynasty, at the beginning of Yin.

At this time, the lights on the head of Kufa City were bright and very bright. Every three meters, there was a brazier with sufficient fuel in it to ensure that the flames would not go out overnight. At the same time, the soldiers on duty were holding torches in their hands.

The combination of torches and braziers illuminates the entire city with almost no inch of shadow.

Under the firelight, in addition to the blood-stained bricks and stones on the city, there are many large food soldiers. Every less than ten feet away, there is a large food soldiers on duty, and patrol troops are constantly walking around to prevent enemy attacks and supervising the soldiers on duty to be lazy.

As Liu Qi said during a chat with Li Gong, because Kufa City is the last barrier of the Great Food Kingdom, all the powerful people tried their best to defend the city; the Great Food Warriors and the people in the city had heard of Anxi's past behavior towards the Great Food Warriors, and because the generals were very generous, they all tried their best to contribute their strength to defending the city.

In this case, the cannibal not only fought very hard with the Anxi Army and the Fuqi Army during the day, but also performed their duties at night and did not dare to act lazy. Even if a few people were lazy, they would be quickly discovered by others and reported, and then they would do the hardest and most tiring work without wages.

At the same time, Gyebo Silin and four others occasionally appeared secretly on the city wall at night to check whether the soldiers had any omissions. For example, tonight.

"Okay, very good." Bingbo Silin had just worn a long coat and followed a centurion to walk around the city near the Euphrates River in the east. After returning to the resting place, he said to the commander who was in charge of the city head of the East City tonight:

"No soldier is lazy. Everyone always pays attention to outside the city and is guarding against sneak attacks by the Anxi Army or the Fuqi Army. It's done well."

"Thank you for the praise of Emil." The commander of the thousand-time men said immediately, but he did not look happy when he was praised by Shangguan as before. After all, the trophy that was guarded in the past, and now the life that the Anxi army has not retreated cannot be said to be defended, and it is not worth showing a happy expression.

Bingbo Silin also became accustomed to it. The higher the status, the more burdens the body is, the more pressure the heart is. It is normal to have a serious expression on his face and it is not worth caring about.

“It’s 3 a.m., and in about an hour, the day will shine. That’s when it’s the most susceptible to sneak attacks.

So you not only can’t relax, but you also have to urge the soldiers more strictly.”

"Yes, my subordinates understand." The commander of the thousand-man agreed.

"Of course, I also understand that it has been nearly forty days since the war with the Anxi Army. After such a long battle, everyone was very tired and wanted to rest.

Especially when our army is defending the city, if the Anxi Army does not want to attack the city one day or just acts on a pretentious manner, it only needs to arrange a small number of soldiers to prevent our army; but our army needs to mobilize a large number of soldiers to be on guard against the Anxi Army's sudden attack or sneak attack.

Therefore, the soldiers of our army accumulated more fatigue than the Anxi army, and the current mental state of Anxi army should be generally better than that of our army soldiers.

But there is no way to do this. The advantage of defending the city has already taken over, and it is impossible to completely send out a disadvantage, so I can only persist.

You can tell the soldiers that after such a long battle, the Anxi Army and the Fuqi Army would soon be unable to hold on; they would retreat after not long.

After they withdrew, all the soldiers can rest completely relaxed."

"I know that I have been encouraging the soldiers like this for these days. Of course, there is also material motivation." The commander of thousands of men replied again.

"I almost forgot about material incentives." Ghibo Silin slapped his head and said, "According to the results of my discussion with Alarry and others, from tonight, the rewards of all night soldiers will be added to the next silver coin. It will be distributed immediately after dawn tomorrow."

"Yes." The Qianmao's answer finally became more vivid this time.

Seeing this, Bingbo Silin nodded and gave a few more instructions to change his clothes when he came, and to leave the city and return to his residence.

When he and several guards reappeared at the city, they did not attract anyone's attention. First, all the soldiers were staring at outside the city and had no time to control the people passing by behind them; second, when Bingbo Silin came to the city, he wore a general coat and did not reveal his identity.

"If you persist for a few more days, the Anxi Army will definitely withdraw. If the Anxi Army retreats, the Fuqian people will also withdraw. The battle will be over." Looking at the soldiers, Bingbo Silin muttered to himself a few more words.

"You said, how many days will the Anxi Army retreat?" He suddenly asked his guards again.

"General, I can't say it." Abed, the leader, thought for a while, shook his head.

"We can't say it." The guards said one after another.

"Guess."

"I dare not guess."

"Guess it casually."

"General, I don't think Anxi's army will withdraw soon." After some reason, Bingbo Silin was nervous. He had to guess, Abed could only express his thoughts.

"reason?"

"So far, the Anxi Army did not seem to have suffered much losses, and most of them were soldiers from the Jiu surname of Zhaowu and Persian. The most important army was killed or injured, and they could still be defeated.

Second, their food can be collected from nearby areas and there will be no shortage of food for the time being.

Third, my feeling is that the commander of the Anxi Army seems to have to seize Kufa City and will not retreat until he has to.

Moreover," Abed gritted his teeth and said: "In the past ten days, the Anxi Army's offensive has been very loose. On the surface, it seems to be a harbinger of retreating, but according to the Anxi Army's previous actions, they should be planning a plan to defeat our army and seize Kufa City."

"You are right, I am optimistic." Bingbo Silin was silent for a while and said, "What do you think is the Anxi Army's plan?"

Abed refused again. Ke Bingbo Silin insisted on asking him to express his thoughts. As a last resort, he said, "I think..."

But before he finished speaking, a noisy shout suddenly sounded from the city wall!
