521 Heading to the Enemy 6
It was already afternoon, and Akberinamu was making people count the losses and clean up the battlefield. This time, it was really beyond his expectation. The Huo Xun Army relied on powerful weapons to retreat, which he did not expect at all. Yes, the heavy armored cavalry lost half of them, and still did not leave the opponent, in his opinion, it was almost that.
The only thing that made him gratified was that the army led by Sarabaddi had already set up a battalion in the east. Tomorrow, they will turn to the north. As long as he defends the southwest and the south, he can still win this battle. Although the loss was great, he also knew one thing, Huoxunren's loss was not small.
Not long after, the military counselor Kianush came to report, "Commander Akberinamu, today we killed more than 16,000 people and injured more than 13,000 people. Six people were killed in the fire search. More than a thousand people."
Akberinamu let out a long sigh, and after only saying a word, he went back to camp. He hadn't thought of the loss of this amount. But there is one thing worthy of comfort, that is, more than 6,000 people died in the Huoxunren battle. Of course, he didn't know that there were four thousand prisoners in the food army, if he knew it, he would have vomited blood.
There was an arrow on the dog's shoulder armor. Fortunately, the armor was good enough and didn't penetrate deep enough, but it was enough to make Muna cry.
In a small courtyard in the palace hall, Li You was helping Gouzi to heal his injuries. Gouzi smiled at Muna and said: "Don't cry, it's okay. I'm dead. I can't die. I haven't gotten married yet. Why are you willing to give birth to a son like this... Ow..."
The arrow was pulled out. Fortunately, it was a wide arrow. If it was a penetrating arrow or a spiked arrow, it is estimated that the dog would not be so lucky. Fortunately, the arrow entered the flesh and did not penetrate very deep, but it still has to deal with.
"Gouzi, bear with me and bite this." After saying that, Li You took a piece of cotton cloth to him.
When the dog bit him, Li You poured the alcohol on it, and his sweaty beads burst out from the pain, and Muna who was watching was even more distressed.
After the bandage was finished, Li You said again: "You can't force your hands this month, or the wound will collapse. Remember this, have you heard it."
"I know the young master, thank you young master."
"Muna, take good care of him, I went to the hall." After speaking, Li You left.
In the main hall, everyone was there. Although more than 2,000 people were killed in the battle this time, they could bear the casualties, and they could roughly estimate that the big cannibals lost a total of 20,000 people. Including the wounded, at least 30,000 people were wasted. As long as you slowly consume your opponents, you can still win the war.
After Li You came over, Tanzberg first asked: "Most Protector, what should we do next?"
All of you here would like to ask this question. Although this time we fought a big victory in the battle, there are still nearly 100,000 people in the army. This is not a war that can be won. We need to have a plan for the next step. Okay, after all, everyone knows that the food in the city is not enough. Now, the big guys have two meals a day. Even so, it can only last for ten days.
"We destroyed 30,000 of them, and they have no way to make up. In this way, they will definitely deploy some people as support forces, and these people must be cavalry. If they want to surround this place, let them After the encirclement is complete, the next step is to shoot them continuously, General Tanzberg, don’t worry, three days later, when they encircle Hanhai City, we can act."

Heizi asked: "Young Master, the artillery is in the city now, how can the bastion be defended?"
"It's okay. They have already seen the power of artillery. They definitely won't be able to attack the city. The most is to use a stone thrower to attack. If you are not at ease, you can bring two cast iron cannons and two for every bastion. The artillery will just go over. They have no way to stop it. Could the people who are watching still prevent you from transporting the artillery? Actually, tonight is a good opportunity, so let’s let Dong Kui do it later. , Now is also the best time."
Heizi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll let Dong Kui do it later."
"Zhang Da, you will choose some people later. It is the old rule, but the number is not too large, just 300 people. The two stone crossbows distributed to the female slaves will be allocated to them. The purpose is to go outside the city at night to kill and harass. , This matter will be carried out in three days. Okay, the general arrangement is like this, you all go back first."
After everyone left, Yi Wu asked: "Husband, can we really hold the city?"
Li You smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have more confidence in killing 30,000 of them this time. I should say that I am very sure. Okay, now it's not early, I have to go. One trip to the workshop, I guess I won’t be back these few days."
After hugging Yi Wu, Li You left. Yi Wu didn't ask much. She knew that it was not easy for Li You to win this battle. He still had a lot to do.
As soon as the night fell, Li You brought more than 300 musketeers back to the workshop. On the way, he encountered the Sentry Rangers of Food, but they were few and did not dare to approach. Anyway, they were just It's just surveillance, as long as the other party doesn't transport grain in and out of the city, it's no big deal. Besides, right now, they have not really established the defense, and there is no way to stop it.
The bastion in the workshop is the most defensive among the four bastions, and the degree of completion here is also the highest, and it is almost finished. Li You knows one thing very well, that is, the big cannibal does not know what role such a bastion has. In his opinion, maybe the big cannibal still wants to attack the bastion.
Li You came here to make more rear-mounted cartridges for firearms and artillery shells. In the past few days, he only asked the ironsmiths to make a large number of shells and shells. He has to do it himself. Although someone is doing it, the speed is too slow. With him, at least the speed can be increased a lot, not to mention too much, as long as he can get three hundred and sixty more cartridges out, Musketeers The combat power of the gun will be stronger, and there is indeed no time, otherwise it will not be equipped with four rear-loading cartridges for each gun.
When Li You arrived, he went to the lobby of the main city of the bastion and asked people to find Qiu Chengfu. He needed to ask what the situation was like now.
It didn't take long for Qiu Chengfu to come over. Li You knew when his eyes were red that they really didn't sleep well these days. Without waiting for Qiu Chengfu to see him, Li You stepped forward to help him and said, "You don't need to be polite, I just wanted to ask, how did the rear-loading cartridges be done? What are the difficulties?"
Qiu Chengfu bowed his hand and said: "Patriarch, these days, we have made more than 400 cartridges and dozens of shells, but only more than a hundred have been cut out of the cartridges. There is nothing else that is difficult."
"Okay, it's enough. I'll do it myself later. In this way, the speed will be much faster. There will be no problem if you can make three hundred and sixty cartridges in three days. As for the shells of the artillery shells, you Afterwards, the manufacturing can be accelerated, and there is no requirement in terms of quantity." (End of this chapter)
