447 Battle 2
In fact, it’s a good thing that civilians can help defend the city, but it makes sense for Heizi not to dare. There’s no way. It’s not a good thing to say that someone joins. They are all untrained people. They really want to go up the city wall. Drag other people down. In addition, their discipline and obedience cannot be compared with those of trained soldiers. Besides, if they are really allowed to go up, it will be a target, but their lives will be sacrificed in vain. It is better to let them do something practical. , They helped to transport the materials, which greatly made up for the shortage of manpower, and still effectively increased defense.
In the palace hall of Hanhai City, Yi Wu asked Tanzburg: "Uncle Tanzburg, how long can we hold on?"
This question is a bit heavy, and it’s not easy to answer. If the city wall hadn’t been built so strong, the city would have been gone. Although the offensive and defensive see-saw like the current one is fierce, in general it can still be persisted, but it can go on like this. It is also impossible. Once a person is finished fighting, the city will naturally be broken.
I really want to say how long it can last. This is really not easy to say. Now, the mercenaries under Heizi’s are the main killers of the enemy, not from the slave army. Although their number is not particularly large, they rely on the bows and arrows in their hands. , Brought great casualties to the food army. If these people did not suffer any major losses in the next siege, maybe they could really kill the food army slowly. At that time, this battle is over.
But there is another problem here. Can the other slave armies and the original Fire Hunting Soldiers persist until this time? After all, there will be thousands of casualties every day. This casualty is not a small number, even if the big cannibals died. Even more, they can't withstand such consumption. If the number of people is reduced to a certain level, the big cannibal will definitely choose a breakthrough for the final forcible attack, and then everything will be done.
If you look at it in this way, they will hold on for another half a month at most, and the big cannibal will definitely launch the most violent attack, and it will be the last attack. Therefore, Tanzberg said frankly: "Your Majesty, there is no problem in half a month. If anything changes during this period, it may be longer."
Although this is not what everyone here wants to hear, it is indeed the truth, but the so-called change will actually happen, no one knows, this time it is the big food to attack the fire. Although most of the elites are still Persians, their overall strength is still very strong, which is not comparable to the food army they encountered before. In fact, it's not that Heizi and the others are so weak. They were actually beaten up by others when they were not dominant. The loss was too great and they had to retreat.
Yi Wu looked at Heizi and asked him, "Big Chief, do you have a countermeasure?"
Heizi sighed, and said helplessly: "Madam, this time it was indeed my carelessness that caused the disadvantage. What we can do is stick to it. Although there are not enough defenders in the city, I ordered people to take all the stocks yesterday. The armors are all sent down. In this way, the casualties can be reduced to a certain extent. It can only be seen who can afford it. Now the big cannibal offense is not as violent as the previous day, I guess, they too I feel that the loss is too great, after all, they have also lost 20,000 people."
"Big Chief, what if they concentrate their attacks?" Gekan on the side also asked anxiously.
Heizi said in Sogdian, who is still not very skilled: "A concentrated attack will result in greater casualties. They will not attack in a concentrated manner if our people are not wiped out to a certain extent. To be honest, I am still eager. They focus their attacks. As long as they focus, our giant crossbow will be able to function. There is no need to cower like it is now.
Although the power of the giant crossbow is great, the strike force is not great when the opponent is not concentrated or crowded. Now it is still relying on ordinary bows and arrows, which can really kill the opponent, except for those who are lucky. It’s the real archers. To put it bluntly, those who are attacking with a shield nowadays are unattended. The two sides are playing a bow and arrow shooting competition. If it weren’t for Heizi, who was originally known for his bow and arrow, where would he kill? It's a big food for 20,000 people.
Now they can only cower and shoot each other with the siege tower on the wall. No one dares to be too aggressive. They will be hit by arrows accidentally, and those who deal with the siege soldiers are all The sergeant in armor, the others really dare not show it.
Tanzberg said to Heizi: "Big Chief, you know, our people are just that, and the food in the city is not too much. If the big cannibals don’t retreat, we will have a hard time. If we want to win this In the war, we still need to eliminate a large number of the cavalry who are big cannibals. This time, they have a lot of cavalry, and many of them are in armor. Such an army is extremely difficult for us to deal with."
Tanzberg’s words are indeed correct. Even if he can defend himself, he does not have a lot of food. In the end, he has to compete with the enemy. Now the offensive is the infantry, and the cavalry has not moved yet. , Even if the infantry is all gone, relying on these 30,000 cavalrymen can still kill the fire. If you want to repel the big cannibals, you must defeat this cavalry. This is very difficult to do. It has arrived, but it must be done again. Although it is not the time to consider this, this matter is always placed here. New Bayi Chinese website debut
As the actual military commander of Huoxun, Heizi also has some headaches about this. No matter what, he has to think about this. The only thing he can pray for is that Zhang Da will come with reinforcements. He is really afraid that Hanhai City will be lost. Yes, this can't be explained to Li You.
While they were still discussing and discussing in the palace, a sergeant ran over and he brought a surprising and frustrating news that a part of the southern city wall was cracked by a boulder projected by a stone thrower. , Fortunately, at night, the other party can't see clearly whether the side city will be broken.
Tanzberg said to Yi Wu: "Your Majesty, it seems that the city cannot be kept. We will send you away at night tonight."
Heizi understood, and he immediately said, "No, Madam must stay here. It is too dangerous outside. Once there is an accident, who can be responsible."
Tanzberg said angrily to the sunspot: "Big Chief, when is this? If you wait until tomorrow, no one will be able to go. At that time, you will not be able to let your majesty go.
At this time, Yi Wu said: "Uncle Tanzberg, I will not leave. I will never leave the palace until the last moment."
Yi Wu knows one thing very well. She cannot go. If she leaves, this battle will be defeated. Although she is indeed at a disadvantage now, and the risk of defeat is very high, at least she can hold the city and the soldiers will also be defeated. She was defending with all her strength, but once she left, the morale of the army would be destroyed instantly. (End of this chapter)
