In addition, Shen Mingzhu also ordered all the equipment used to defend the city and led the people to prepare day and night.
In order to prevent the enemy from cutting down the trees that were convenient for felling, she had people cut them down first, and then transported them back to the city to continue making defensive equipment, so as not to be chopped down by the enemy to make siege equipment.
In addition, after Boku's tens of thousands of troops were wiped out, countless weapons, armor, equipment, etc. were collected from the battlefield and piled up in the city. They can also be put to use now.
Some fathers, daughters and strong old people who can help on the city wall also have armor to wear. At least wearing a helmet will make them much safer.
Others can also be used to repair the armor of the soldiers in the city. In short, everything will not be wasted and can be used.
Soon the spies came to report that Yizhique's army was already a hundred miles away and was expected to arrive at Mianyang City on the third day.
The entire Mianyang City took action immediately. Hou Shou led people to plant mines and explosives, Chu Ji led people to cut down trees, Yelu En led people to lay traps...
Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu were sitting in the city, strategizing and commanding.
When Yizhique's people passed by the mine area, they were caught off guard first. However, Yizhique was not a fuel-efficient lamp. He quickly took control of the situation and asked people to search around and light fuses for those who were lying in ambush around them.
Mianyang City soldiers captured him.
Although Shen Mingzhu had already ordered people to retreat and he didn't catch anything, he still cleared the obstacles and no more manpower was lost on the simple mines.
But Yi Zhique was not satisfied either. He was caught off guard, but he couldn't even see the enemy's face clearly. This was the first time.
Moreover, the enemy obviously did not come to beat him, but to harass him and undermine his team's self-confidence.
Yi Zhique secretly wrote down this account and would calculate it again when he faced the enemy in battle.
Soon Yi Zhique arrived and set up camp outside the safe area of Mianyang City. Because of the large number of people, the vanguard had already arrived, but the baggage troops were still behind, and the food and fodder camp had not yet been settled. It seemed a bit chaotic.
Some lieutenants in Mianyang City suggested sending people to sneak attacks before the enemy had settled down to disrupt them, but Shen Mingzhu and others immediately rejected it.
Because although the enemy camp seemed a bit chaotic, the vanguard was orderly and murderous, without any chaos.
This is clearly a treacherous plot by the enemy, deliberately making the whole team look chaotic and disorderly. However, the vanguard remains alert at all times. If the enemy comes for a sneak attack, the vanguard can take the opportunity to move out, and the opponent who comes for a sneak attack will be surrounded by them.
Sure enough, they did not go for a sneak attack, and Yi Zhique's camp also saw that the other party would not be fooled, and quickly got on track.
Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu stood on the watchtower, looking at Yizhique's camp. Yizhique was so arrogant that he stationed the camp less than ten miles away from the city. He whispered: "Mingzhu, if it's the two of us
If you lead a sneak attack, can you kill Yi Zhique directly?"
If Yi Zhique could be killed, this war could be avoided. He didn't want her to be trapped in the vortex of war and have no time to enjoy life.
Especially since they are already married, he should give her a better living environment instead of fighting and killing her every day.
Shen Mingzhu looked up at him and smiled, "That would be great, but I think Yi Zhique must want us to assassinate him more than anyone else, so that he can show how foresight he is."
