Chapter 159: Intelligence

However, we also have our advantage, that is, the people in the city, those who have not yet escaped, may be able to help us defend the city, but their power is limited, and we can't rely too much.

Seeing Huo Yun listening carefully, Shan Feng couldn't help nodding secretly. Sure enough, he was a child to teach. Although he was just a playboy, those who said so must be blind. This was clearly a person with talent, great ambition and determination.

"At that time, we can install some traps on the periphery of the city. In addition, we need to grasp the arrows. At present, the arrows in our hands are very limited and cannot withstand our excessive consumption, and we are not good at armaments, not as good as those fully armed Zhongshan Kings."

"Please look," Shan Feng said and drew the environment around Shucheng on the ground and pointed to a little on the ground and said, "This is our Shucheng. Shucheng is located in an open plain, and there are very few mountains around it. According to the return of the detective, the current army of the King Zhongshan is here. He pointed to a point not far in front of Shucheng with his hand.

"They camped in a small village, and there hasn't been much movement so far, but I received the news that they have received an order from the King of Zhongshan. It is estimated that they will cross this river tomorrow and then go straight to Shucheng. It only takes a few days for them to reach the gate of Shucheng."

Huo Yun couldn't help nodding secretly. In such a short time, the mountain wind can figure out the form of the enemy and me, and in this regard, he can feel that he has not believed the wrong person.

"We can place some traps in this direction, which can slightly hinder the speed of their march and cause them a little trouble. Saying that due to the terrain of Shucheng, we can only rely on the strength in our hands to fight with them to fight for the arrival of reinforcements, as long as we wait for the reinforcements in Yuancheng. , we can defend the city to the death.

"It is estimated that it will take for the army of Yuancheng to come here." Huo Yun looked at the ground and asked.

"It may take more than a month," the mountain wind sighed.

When Huo Yun heard this, he knew that his current key was whether he could hold on to the arrival of reinforcements. If he persisted for more than a month, he could wait for reinforcements, so that Shucheng would be saved. But the key to the question is whether he could hold for a month. With these soldiers, to put it in his heart, Huo Yun is also There is no bottom.

Shanfeng introduced all the forms in one breath, and then looked at Huo Yun with a smile.

Huo Yun smiled bitterly, "Don't hide it. If you have any good countermeasures, you might as well talk about it."

"Your Excellency, those crossbows are very good, and they are still continuous. I have never seen such crossbows before. If you have a large number of such crossbows, it is also very possible for us to defend the city for a month. We can even destroy those armies. Your Excellency, don't look at the costumes of those armies. It's better prepared, but you may not know that those are not the strength of the King of Zhongshan, and their combat effectiveness is not very high. If we can swallow them, it will be a huge gain for us. Not to mention military achievements, those armaments alone are enough for us to arm most of us. Speaking of the mountain wind, he looked at Huo Yun with his eyes shining.

Huo Yun's heart was depressed. The combat effectiveness of those troops was not high, which was also relative. For the city defense army, their combat effectiveness was already very high. Regarding Zhuge Shenn, when he saw his naked eyes, Huo Yun couldn't help shivering. If he could That's good. I don't have to worry about defending the city for a long time, but those things are difficult to control the process, and it is impossible to produce a large number of them by the consumption of money alone. I don't know if there is a breakthrough in the craftsman's technology, Huo Yun asked secretly.

Huo Yun smiled bitterly, "The military is like this. Although those crossbows are good, the cost is very high. I also went bankrupt to complete these 50 sets. It would be nice if I could produce a large number of them, but the crux of the problem is that it is very difficult to achieve that purpose."

The mountain wind has also seen bows and arrows. At first glance, he found the excellence of the crossbows in the army all year round. The crossbows made him moved. If he were all armed to the archers, the mountain wind could predict how spectacular it would be. At that time, thousands of arrows would cover the sky and the earth.

Hearing Huo Yun's words, he couldn't help sighing, "Since that's the case, we can only find ways from other aspects, but I still have to say that such a crossbow is very good, but unfortunately we can't be heavily armed."

"Yes! I want to, too." Huo Yun said with emotion.

"But one day, maybe we can arm it." Huo Yun continued.

Shanfeng's eyes suddenly lit up, "In that case, the strength of the archer will double, which must be the enemy's nightmare."

"Ye! That's what I think," Huo Yunhao said with a smile.

After talking with Shanfeng for a while, Shanfeng also put forward a lot of useful suggestions for defending the city, and also accepted these Huo Yun one by one. Now for Huo Yun, the most important thing is to defend the city.

The next morning, Huo Yun gathered the remaining people and soldiers in the city, read out Wang Liu's crimes in public, and killed Wang Liu on the spot. Winning the unanimous praise of the people, Wang Liu was originally a bully on the ground and had been bullying the people. Huo Yun's move completely conformed to public opinion. For a moment, Huo Yun's position in the hearts of the people in Shucheng gradually increased and won the trust of some of the people.

In addition, it also has a great impact in the army, ringing an alarm for those who have the same thoughts as Wang Liu to let him know the consequences of betraying the court.

After last night's sweep, Wang Liu's remnant confidant was basically cleaned by Huo Yunqing. His subordinates are also under the management of Liefeng. Now Liefeng is also a powerful figure, managing hundreds of people. However, the Danzi pressed on the gale is also getting heavier and heavier, but for the gale, this is also what he wants. Huo Yun has removed the number of his personal guard captain. Now Erniu is the captain of the guard, and Black Pig is the deputy captain.

For this reason, the black pig has competed with Erniu many times, but every time, there is no good end.

What makes Huo Yun happy is that Wang Liu's money actually has these 5,000 ingots of gold, which is worthy of being a person who often collects in Shucheng. His family property is indeed rich, which does not include his real estate. If even those are added, there will be at least 8,000 ingots of gold.

This gold is enough for Huo Yun to use for a period of time.

When Huo Yun killed Wang Liu, he also issued a mobilization order to encourage the whole army to participate in this war. Now the people and soldiers are actively preparing some city defense equipment.

In a camp thousands of miles away, a big man looked at the map and sneered at the corners of his mouth, "My king has sent a message to take Shucheng within ten days. I don't know if you are confident."

A man who looked like a military marquis laughed and said, "General Xia, Shucheng is just a small city. With our force, it is not ready to be captured. It is not that everyone does not know the armament of Shucheng and the quality of the city defense army. As soon as we went to attack the city spread, Shucheng's defenders actually ran away. Most of the time, I saw that if we arrived at Shucheng, all their garrisons had fled, and we could easily take Shucheng. With that, he laughed.

Other military marquises also laughed, obviously disdainful of Shucheng.

"No.. No.. I'm afraid that when we went, the city guards in Shucheng were close to greet us at the door of the city, kneeling for the door to enter the city," said a military marquis.

ushered in another burst of laughter from the military.

Yes, Liu Junhou's thoughtful and in-depth thinking, and everyone couldn't help but agree with it angrily.

Xiahou also said with a smile, "Although Shucheng's army is very weak, we still need to be careful and strive to take Shucheng within five days, so that we will definitely get great rewards for our first achievements."

Yes, we can take Shucheng within five days. Such a city is simply vulnerable. If we don't have to hurry there, I'm afraid we can take the city in just an hour.

Everyone was talking about a soldier and ran in.

"Report to the general, there is important information from Shucheng"

Everyone's smile couldn't help but stop. Xiahou couldn't help frowning slightly. There was always a bad idea in his heart. With a wave of his hand, he took over the information and looked at it.

Everyone can't help looking at each other.
