In a short while, the four were called to Yang's house. In the small courtyard with the sign of the battle command headquarters, Yang Chendong spoke out his worries, which once shocked the three people.

It can be seen that the four did not believe the news on the first day of the first day. But who can make it clear in politics that today is still a friend and tomorrow is the enemy. It can be said that everything can happen when the benefits can shake people's hearts.

"We just sent so much food and grass to Beiming, and they will come back now. It's bad for us. It's too beast." Yu Mian's beard trembled. It can be seen that he was really angry with Beiming's shamelessness.

Hu Mang's performance was not much better. He hit the sand table with a fist. "Sure enough, people can't be too kind. We are willing to take risks to help Beiming, but how they treat us in turn. Even if those things are given to a dog, he will at least wag his tail at us."

"Sometimes people are really not as good as animals." the farewell, which has always been known as a wise man, said unhappily at this time. Yang Chendong said many times that he was calm in the face of danger, had a view of the overall situation and had a strategic mind. At this moment, he inevitably showed an angry look.

"Young master, just tell me what to do." Yang Si was more direct, with an angry look of completely obeying orders and waiting for orders.

Yang Chendong is also angry, but he is more realistic. Knowing that anger can't solve all problems, what we need to do now is how to solve the difficulties in front of us and how to make more preparations before the war begins, rather than scolding here and there, which has no practical significance. "Well, let's be calm. When it comes to anger, I'm more angry than any of you. Now let's talk about what we need to prepare. Yu Mian, you first."

"Yes." Yu Mian quickly entered the role and said: "When Shicheng was first built, it was considered that it might be besieged one day. It had already been prepared. The outer city wall was as high as 15 feet, and the wall was thick. It was definitely the kind that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if the outer city wall was broken, the moat between the outer city wall and the inner city wall was enough to block thousands of troops and horses, and there were enough food and grass in the army, it was not afraid to be besieged, and the possibility of being broken was even less It's small, but there's no way to take care of the grain fields outside the city. I see that we can have a good harvest in two months. If we defend the city, I'm afraid we will lose a lot in this regard. "

"Young master, can't we take the initiative to kill? You often say that the way to avoid losses is to set the battlefield in the territory of the enemy. Can we..." Hu Mang's face turned red when he heard that hundreds of thousands of mu of grain fields waiting for a good harvest might be destroyed. The food in the city for the coming year depends on these lands, and there are many people who live on farming. They are also waiting for the moment of a good harvest. It's really painful to be destroyed.

"No." Yang Chendong answered in a decisive way. "This time, the Allied forces of warra and Yili Ali alone are up to 300000, which is more than eight times the strength of our regular army. If we still take face-to-face hard shaking, even if it is grinding, we will be crushed. Neither Yixian nor Ali Pu are ordinary people and are experts in military use. It is too difficult to make a move under such a disadvantage. Only by defending can we be healthy Now we have our advantages. "

"What's more, I don't know the situation of Beiming this time. If they join this war, we will face more than ten times the enemy, ha ha." next, Yang Chendong didn't go on, but the anger in his eyes represents his mood at the moment.

Yang Chendong has faced such a dilemma for the first time since he established the Yang faction. Although some people have their own ideas in the past, the strength of the two sides will not differ too much. As long as they find the right way and find the right opportunity, they can fight. But this time, in the face of more than eight times the strength comparison, unless Yang Chendong uses fire guns and artillery, they are only cold weapons Collision is difficult to get back to the situation.

Unfortunately, there is no cold front around Yang Chendong. The nearest one is he Gong, the fifth division of the sea in North Korea. However, it will take at least more than 20 days to get to Shicheng from there. If there is obstruction from the northern Ming army along the way, the time will only be longer.

It's impossible to put hope on them. Moreover, even if most of the Haiwu division comes, it can't defeat more than 300000 enemies who are still mainly cavalry.

Of course, Yang Chendong has a big warehouse. If he wants to, he can take out a lot of firearms, but how many people will use them? And how to explain such things? If only one or two weapons are taken out, it can be said that he has prepared in advance. Tens of thousands or more firearms are taken out. It is impossible not to arouse suspicion. It can only be said that the situation is not yet there To the irreparable situation, Yang Chendong also has no need to take risks.

Without enough firearm troops, Yang Chendong can only hope to defend the city. Looking at the four people in front of him, Yang Chendong still has a smile on his face, "Ladies and gentlemen, if a city wants to mature, it must go through a lot of things. The time has come to test the beginning of the city. As long as we unite as one, there are no difficulties we can't resist and no obstacles we can't overcome. We need to tell everyone with facts that the defense line of the beginning of the city is strong. Next, please come on."

"Young master, just tell me what to do." Hu mang patted his chest and said in a loud voice.

"Six young masters, you give orders." Yu Mian, farewell and Yang Si also said their positions in one voice.

"OK, I'll give you an order, and you can add it at any time." Yang Chendong also showed a very firm look in his eyes. "Order, the troops guarding Saihan mountain to withdraw to the city immediately; order the world's first cavalry division and Tatar division to guard against anyone passing through it and threatening the safety of Mobei city and other places on the way out of the city to the northwest; order to immediately start the conscription in the city, mainly the soldiers of the logistics division, and strive to build a regular army in a short time. Remember, I want regular troops, not just to make up the numbers. I don't want to see my soldiers rush to the battlefield and finally die innocent because of poor military quality. I order to immediately start martial law in the city by loosening the outside and tightening the inside. All people who enter the city are not allowed to enter and leave without a special pass. I order to bury more mines next to the grain field outside the city. If we choose not to leave that grain field, it will be dangerous No enemy wants to take it away. As for the people who grow grain, they should be handed over to the city master. You are responsible for telling them how much they lose, we will compensate them, and there should be no civil strife. The telegram ordered the Haiwu division in North Korea to rush to rescue Shicheng immediately. The order... "

Orders were issued from Yang Chendong's mouth. The four people nodded and said yes. If they didn't have time, they would immediately supplement what they thought. Preparations for guarding the city were in full swing. Considering that there must be many enemy spies in the city, the four outer cities didn't seem to have changed, but at the gate of the inner city, Everyone's move out of town has long stopped. In this way, we can also buy some time to prepare for the defense of the starting city.

Three days after the meeting, the world's first cavalry division and Tatar division left the city. No one knew where they had gone. When they left the city, they disappeared on the vast grassland.

Four days later, a large number of mines and other objects were transported out of the city. The soldiers of the new first army recruits division and the regiment directly under the new army went out late and returned early every day. They prepared traps one after another on the periphery of hundreds of thousands of mu of grain fields, waiting for the enemy to come.

Seven days later, the Wara department and yilibaoli army finally had a movement. They suddenly gave up the siege of sanbulachuan city and turned to move towards the beginning of the city. This move was also made jointly with arip.

Just a day ago, they suddenly found that the spies sent to Shicheng to inquire about the news had no news back, which gave them a very bad feeling. Although the scouts can continue to send back information by borrowing haidongqing, indicating that there is nothing unusual in Shicheng on the surface, they are not so easy to fool. As soon as there is an accident, they think of the same problem. Has Yang Chendong had insight into their battle plan.

Where is the problem? People will see their intention. These two have no way to consider it. Even if there is a danger that may be found, it is to take the initiative. After all, the advantage is in their hands.

The enemy under the four gates suddenly withdrew, which made Shi Wanshan, the general soldier of Xuanfu, who had been nervous, look puzzled.

During this period of time, his life was not easy at all. Although the soldiers under the city had never launched an attack, the nerve in his mind was always tight. He really didn't know when the enemy would suddenly launch an attack.

Every night I think about whether the enemy will launch an attack on the city the next morning and whether I can defend the city. That kind of day is more than a suffering. But no one thought that the enemy had withdrawn from the city. At this moment, he had an unreal feeling.

Gu He, Ning Wenfeng, the deputy commander in chief, and Deng Qiang, the eunuch in charge of the army, appeared on the tower together. They were all at a loss when they saw the enemy disappearing from under their own eyes. What happened in front of them obviously also gave them a feeling that they couldn't touch their heads.

"You say, what are they doing?" holding the battlements, Shi Wanshan seemed to be asking others and talking to himself.

"They won't pretend to retreat, in order to cause us to go out of the city." Gu he's deputy commander-in-chief, upright and direct.
