Chapter 343

"Lord Ren, they have withdrawn and are on their way back."

When Ren 8000 heard the sound from the walkie talkie, he first looked at the two camps. No Daxia army came out. After all, in such a dark night, the personal strength of the ancient people can be brought into greater play.

Moreover, the two camps are barely calm now. It is estimated that treating the wounded, putting out fire and closing down the chaotic army will be enough for them to be busy for a while.

"When it's done, withdraw." Ren 8000 asked people to carry mortars, machine guns and ammunition boxes. They withdrew slowly. When they got to the bottom of the city, they saw the city gate open and the fish penetrated into the city.

Not long after they returned to chengling mansion, the war damage was also delivered.

There were only a few hundred people, but the damage to Feiqi was minimal. It was the central government guard who lost 300 or 400 people, but half of them came back from serious injuries, and only about 200 were killed in battle.

The loss of the ancient people is very small compared with that of Daxia.

The loss of Daxia army was at least twenty or thirty thousand, and a large number of grain and grass were burned.

However, Ren 8000 was attracted by something described by the flying horse who came back.

At the end of the night attack, due to the killing of ancient soldiers in the camp, a group of teams will encounter a group of bombs and will never be able to fight back. The eastern camp will launch several guns.

This thing Feiqi didn't take it seriously, but after the other party lit the fire, countless nails sprayed out. Several Feiqi were hit by carelessness and died on the spot.

The number of injured flying riders is more, at least more than 20.

Ren 8000 took it in his hand and looked at the iron nail they sent. It was half a foot long, the thickness of his little finger, made of pig iron, and the bottom was a hexagon slightly larger than the diameter.

"What's the range of this thing?" Ren 8000 asked.

"About 200 steps. You can kill people at 100 steps." Said a flying riding captain.

"In other words, those who were killed by this thing were fools who used this thing to face him within a hundred steps, didn't they know to hide?" Ren 8000 has no good airway.

"The main thing is that I didn't expect it to be far away, but when it's close, it's not small." The flying horse scratched his head and said that he also felt that the subordinates were too wronged.

"There are many unexpected things. I use this thing to face you. Do you hide?" Ren 8000 directly took out a pistol from his waist and pointed it at the flying horse's forehead.

"Of course!" The captain was busy. The governor of Ren poisoned thousands of people before. Today, he took out weapons that could hit the Daxia army a few miles away. Although the details are not clear, they still know that as soon as they explode, they sweep out a pile of steel balls to beat people like a sieve. Many flying riders saw this scene in the distance.

Now, Ren 8000 has a number in the hearts of all flying riders. Although he looks thin and weak, everything in his hand is fatal.

Now, as long as it is what he takes out, people dare not underestimate it.

"In any case, today's night attack is a complete victory, of which Ren adult should take the lead." Li Qianqiu smiled.

Although three or four hundred people were lost, it was enough to satisfy people compared with the loss in summer.

Ren 8000 waved his hand, with an expression of fame and wealth on my face.

"Although I don't know how much the other party's military grain has been lost, I must have lost some. Feiqi and the central army also saw that the place where they stored grain and grass was on fire during the night attack."

This is what Ren 8000 specially drew people's attention.

"If the other party loses a lot of food and grass, the other party will hurry to send food to the rear. Later, he will send some walkie talkies, a relay station and a radio station away. I suggest sending some flying horses with walkie talkies, a relay station and a radio station out to explore and look for them. If he meets the fast horse of the Xia army, he will be intercepted immediately. If he meets the food team, he will join the army if he can eat Eat it together.

If you can't eat, contact the city through the radio and send personnel to support. "

Both the female emperor and Li Qianqiu nodded slightly. It was necessary to intercept each other's grain road. There was nothing wrong with Ren 8000's suggestion.

"The Daxia army here may have two choices next.

The first is to shrink the strength of defense and focus on siege. After all, this night attack should hurt them.

But I think another point is very possible, that is, the dog jumped over the wall.

If the other party loses too much grain and grass, the grain transport team will take a long time to arrive. The other party may attack on a large scale and consume its own troops to fight with us. "

"What is duizi?" Li Qianqiu asked immediately.

"If the other side is seriously short of food, for example, there are only 100000 people left with two-day rations, but the food team will arrive in seven days, what should we do? Halving the food per person is not enough. When they are too hungry to move, we will attack on a large scale, and they will not even have a chance to fight back.

In that case, it's better to consume most of them. If we can break the city, it's best. If we can't break it, we can also consume our troops. It's a good place to die. And the rest of their troops, even if they are short of food and grass, are enough to support the arrival of the grain team. "

"If the other party loses too much food and grass, he is likely to do so."

"Exchange their lives for ours, that is, Duzi." Ren 8000 finally concluded.

Li Qianqiu frowned for a long time and nodded slowly: "it's not impossible."

If you are in the position of the other party's general, I'm afraid you will choose so when there is no way.

They consulted for a while, and when they saw that the night was deep, they all went back to rest.

Generally, both sides of the war have spies and spies, which can obtain a lot of useful information. But in the war between Dayao and Daxia, there were almost no spies in each other's army, so all information can only rely on speculation.

……

Dayao people went back to rest, but Daxia's barracks were brightly lit.

Treat the wounded, put out the fire, count the bodies and count the losses until dawn.

Wu shenghou sat in the big tent with an iron face, motionless like a stone statue.

A burst of hurried footsteps made him raise his eyelids, looked at the scribe who hurried in, and asked in a deep voice, "how about it?"

"There were 11000 casualties in Daying, more than 23000 in Dongying, 876 in Wuying, and 392 left.

In Dongying, only 60000 troops had food and grass for two days, with a loss of 75%. There are 170000 troops in the big camp. They have lost 60% of their grain and grass for ten days, but Xiying has not lost it. "

"How long can the rest of the grain and grass be used?" Wu shenghou asked.

"There are still 60000 troops in the West camp with two days of food and grass, and the rest of the East camp is enough for 140000 troops for one day. The rest of the food and grass in the West camp is enough for four days. That is to say, it is enough for five days. If the daily supply of food and grass is halved, it can support ten days. But in this way, the soldiers are unable to attack."

"How long will the food and grass be delivered?" Wu shenghou asked.

"There are ten days left." The scribe whispered. "But general Wen Yuan and General Zhao Sheng should be able to mobilize some. They are easier to supply at the border."

"Inform them!" Wu Sheng Hou said in a deep voice.

"Let the soldiers have a good meal and attack the city in two hours!"

"My lord?" The scribe was surprised. The soldiers didn't rest almost all night. Are they in such a hurry to attack the city today?

"Can't delay!" Wu Sheng Hou's face was ugly. "You know the kind of attack that Wu Ying encountered yesterday?"

The scribe nodded.

"In addition, the thing that attacked the grain and grass last night and the thing that would explode when they threw it into the crowd, I don't know if the other party has any means to make it out. We can't continue to drag it down and work hard. Even if the damage is great, we should take Liao Cheng down or force out their cards."

Wu Sheng Hou cut the nail and cut the railway. For generals, as long as they show their cards, they can always find a way to deal with them. Only the unknown is the most terrible. Because it is likely to give you a head-on blow and lose everything when you think you are about to win.

"I didn't expect those barbarians to have such a thing in their hands." The scholar smiled bitterly.

"Ben Hou didn't expect it." Wu Sheng Hou sighed lightly. Now he felt that he was a barbarian.

"These things can't be big. Someone gave them. Catch that man or kill him."

"The general knows who it is?" The scribe asked. In fact, there was a little speculation in his heart.

"It should be the poison man. Chen Shi went out with the Wu camp yesterday and saw a man controlling a weapon from a distance. He is now in Liaocheng. Besides, he would rather kill wrong than let go." Wu shenghou said.

Ren 8000 guessed about the situation of the Daxia army, and naturally there were many differences.

However, although the reasons are different, Wu shenghou's decision is similar to Ren 8000's guess.

……

In the morning, Ren 8000 sat in the hall to have breakfast with the female emperor, including rolls, noodle soup and a large basin of meat as big as a washing basin.

He watched the pot of meat disappear with the naked eye.

"Is your majesty full?" When the basin reached the bottom, Ren 8000 asked softly.

The female emperor tilted her head, thought for a moment and replied, "half full, but I should take the lead in reducing the amount of food, so that the food and grass in the city can last for more days."

Ren 8000:

They didn't talk a few words. Someone came outside to report that they attacked the city in summer.

The two looked at each other and allowed eight thousand to point at themselves: "a wise man will get one if he cares a lot!"

The empress looked up and thought. There seemed to be nothing wrong, but she always felt as if there was something wrong.

In the afternoon, Ren 8000 confirmed his previous ideas.

The attack intensity of the other side is indeed much greater than before. Almost every moment on the wall, there are soldiers of the Daxia army climbing up, and every moment, soldiers fall from the wall with a howl.

Another day later, the attack intensity of Daxia still increased, more than 100000 troops almost attacked in turn, and the walls in the three directions were fighting from morning to night.

When Ren 8000 went to the small hall of chengling mansion, he saw Li Qianqiu issuing orders inside. When he finished talking with others, he came forward and asked. "Can it hold?"

"They have about 100000 more." Li Qianqiu didn't care.

Ren 8000 nodded, "if the pressure is too great, use the remaining explosives."

"Didn't you use them all the night before yesterday?" Li Qianqiu wondered.

"I have another box!" Ren 8000 said. The 300 explosive tubes contained two boxes. He took out half of them when he blew up the catapult that day, and used them all during the night attack. Now there is still one box left.

"Come on, let me copy the house!" After hearing this, Li Qianqiu stood up from behind the letter and walked out with big steps, shouting as he walked.

Whoever uses this thing knows. Anyway, in Li Qianqiu's eyes, this is a baby. Whether it can be used or not, get it first.
