Chapter 1728: Guard alone at night, killing, dragon sleeping, tiger sleeping, a wall apart

According to Shen Mo's estimate, it was probably around dark today that the army led by Monk Wanyan Chen could chase behind their butts and come all the way to the city of Jinan.

By that time, when this elite force that brought together the essence of the entire Jin Kingdom in Shandong and the Red Coat Army head-on, the real war was coming!

So as soon as the siege was over, Shen Mo ordered his soldiers to climb the city wall and rest on the spot without hesitation!

At the city wall, once an emergency occurs, it can not only defend nearby, but also avoid the remaining Jin army in the city threatening the lives of the soldiers when they are resting in the city. Even if it disturbs their sleep, Shen Mo cannot tolerate it.

So 20,000 Red Coat Army soldiers rushed to the city wall, and then removed their armor after a whole team on the city.

Then they lay on the wall and fell asleep - these soldiers were so tired that almost everyone had reached their limits of their physical fitness.

At the same time, Shen Mo asked a thousand soldiers in the cavalry to replace the Jin army war horses seized from the city with steel arm crossbows. He kept patrolling back and forth on various streets of Jinan City to prevent the remaining Jin army forces in the city from waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

At the same time, hundreds of excellent war horses were selected from the city, riding by the soldiers of the special operations camp, and sentry detectives were released in all directions of Jinan City, focusing on monitoring the direction of the Wanyan Chen army coming.

...

Now most soldiers are asleep, but Shen Mo cannot rest at this time.

The enemy is coming, and a great war is coming!

Now in this Jinan city, they have changed from a siege to a defender. The next battle is a battle that concerns the life and death of the Red Coat Army!

...

Shen Mo then ordered the thousand spearmen under Wang Yunfeng...these soldiers did not participate in the battle when siege the city, so they could still hold on.

Shen Mo asked them to go to the homes of all the wealthy households and officials in the city and search out all the servants inside.

In big cities like Jinan, big families often have hundreds of powerful servants, and these people are even equipped with weapons.

Once they are connected together, it is also a major hidden danger to Jinan City's defense.

So Shen Mo took the initiative to drive out all these servants and let them gather in the city.

Then, under the escort of the spearman, they spread out inside and outside the city walls, and took back the more than 20,000 crossbow arrows shot by the crossbowman.

These people picked up crossbow arrows outside the city and pulled out blood-soaked crossbow arrows from the Jin army's corpses. At the same time, the cloud ladders under the city were also used, and the crossbow arrows tied on the city walls were also climbed up the cloud ladders and taken down one by one by one by these servants.

Then, these crossbow arrows were immediately wiped and picked up, collecting the unbreakable ones inside, and preparing to use them again.

As for the crossbow arrows on the city wall, after the soldiers who had been sleeping on them woke up, they would naturally be allowed to clean up, and these servants would not need to take care of them.

...

The spring city of Jinan is surrounded by mountains.

At this moment, Shen Mo was standing on the city wall south of Jinan, watching the setting sun slowly leaning towards the mountains to the west.

At this time, Shen Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was still one hour before sunset, which means that even if Monk Wanyan Chen arrived in time, it would be almost dark by then.

It was inconvenient to attack the city after it became dark, and Monk Wanyan Chen's army rushed for a day and a night before arriving. When they arrived here, they saw it was too late, so they would definitely rest for a night and attack the city again tomorrow.

In other words, there should be no more war today.

When Shen Mo thought of this, he felt relieved.

Many of his soldiers came over for more than 170 miles with their feet. In fact, they were much more tired than the troops of Monk Wanyan Chen, so resting for one more night would be beneficial or disadvantageous to their Red Coat Army.

When he thought of this, Shen Mo lowered his head and looked at the soldiers in the moat under the city, who were salvaging the door bolt that he had thrown down during the morning siege.

This thing looks like a beam. When siege in the morning, the Red Coat Army took back the city gate again to prevent the enemy from counterattacking, so the soldiers threw it into the river... As a result, they still had to be fished up intact.

Seeing this, Shen Mo smiled and walked off the city.

After this afternoon's rest, the soldiers on the city had recovered a little bit of their strength, so they were all shouted, and after dinner, they returned to the barracks in the city to sleep.

If they sleep on the city all night, they will inevitably get sick. In addition, they have been repeatedly sorted out in Jinan City several times, and there is no danger.

Now, only sentries responsible for keeping watch and monitoring the enemy were left on the top of the city. Shen Mo walked along the horse path while listening to the sound of horse hooves from far to near.

"It's about thirty riders, and the speed is very fast, from the south direction." Shen Mo thought to himself, this should be his special forces back.

Then, when Shen Mo walked to the city gate, he saw a team of scouts covered in dust running in from outside the city.

At this time, these special operations soldiers had not rested for two days and one night. Although their faces were extremely tired, their eyes were still flashing in the dusk.

The captain of the scout team reported to Shen Mo: Monk Wanyan Chen's army of 70,000 has reached twenty miles outside the city.

Shen Mo nodded immediately and asked someone to call Wang Yunfeng and Yang Qingyue over.

...

After that, more than half an hour passed.

When the scouts returned again, they said that Monk Wanyan Chen's army had set up camp ten miles south of the city. After hearing this, Shen Mo smiled immediately.

Nowadays, both Wanyan Chen and Shen Mo are very afraid of each other.

Originally, Monk Chen led a large army to come with his advantage, so he should have set up camp under Jinan City. Because this could force the Red Coat Army troops in the city, making them wary of the attack outside the city all night and not have a good rest.

But now, Monk Wanyan Chen's army is also extremely tired. He also has to worry that the Red Coat Army in the city will go out to attack his Jin army camp at night.

So Monk Wanyan Chen simply set off the camp far away to prevent his army from being damaged.

From this point of view, we can see that first: Monk Wanyan Chen already knew the news of the fall of Jinan City. Second: He was also very afraid of this Red Coat Army.
