"Don't worry, Sir, Nanpi City is close to the tributary of Zhangshui River." Lu Xiang took a deep breath, pointed to the moat with a respectful expression and said: "The moat outside the city is ten meters wide. This moat alone is enough to stop Guan Yu."
For half a month."
"Oh? Why is this?" Yuan Shang asked curiously.
"As for the moat, there are only two ways to cross it. Either fill it with enough lives to create a passage that is enough to cross the river, or slowly fill it with sand and gravel, but Guan Yu's army did not recruit the surrounding people."
Speaking of this, Lu Xiang smiled disdainfully, "Liu Bei is based on 'benevolence' and is based on the world. Naturally, it is impossible to conscript the people around him. In this way, whether it is filling it with human lives or filling in a channel in the moat with sand and soil bit by bit,
Come, we don’t even have enough troops.”
"Just a few thousand people here want to use this kind of vehicle as a cover to fill a wide enough passage to get out. They can't even think about it for more than ten days. Our moat is connected to the Zhangshui River and it flows endlessly. Ordinary sand and soil can be washed away in one go.
If you want to fill it up, you have to use huge boulders, but just collecting the boulders will take a long time."
"Guan Yujun hasn't thought about anything in the past few days. This must be the reason."
"Since Guan Yu's army can't get through, what are we going to do with so many preparations?" Yuan Shang looked like he was asking questions.
"The moat can block ordinary soldiers and prevent the army from crossing, but a small number of elites can still break through. Whether it is using pontoons or other things, it is only ten meters wide after all. As long as there is something to borrow strength in the middle, it is not a problem for elites to cross the river.
, my subordinates are on guard against Guan Yu leading an elite raid to destroy the suspension bridge."
"Once the suspension bridge is lowered, not only will our moat be ineffective, but its protective capabilities will also be greatly reduced."
Lu Xiang spoke eloquently and Yuan Shang nodded repeatedly, "General Lu is a great talent. With General Lu here, Nanpi City must be safe. When Guan Yu retreats, I will definitely explain the general's merits to my father."
"Then I would like to thank you for being here, sir." Lu Xiang clasped his fists respectfully, but did not say any more.
These children from aristocratic families received elite education at a young age. The various things they need to learn are no less than in modern society, but more. Happy learning, a complete childhood, etc. have always been used to fool the lower class.
The people's government is just a means used by the elite to ensure their own status.
For thousands of years, the more elite the family members are, the more stringent their requirements are. At the age of 3, they study literature, at the age of 4, they practice martial arts, at the age of 5, they are proficient in poetry and poetry, and at the age of 6, they can break a boulder from their chest... Ahem, string
I can write poetry at the age of three and poetry at the age of five.
How old is Yuan Shang now? He is only eleven or twelve years old. He already has some of the demeanor of Yuan Shao back then. He has begun to learn to win over people's hearts. He fully understands that this is the principle of paying equal attention to both civil and military forces in war-torn times. He must seize the opportunity to win over Lu Xiang, the leader of the army.
The general's support was used to fight against his elder brother Yuan Tan.
It's just that Lu Xiang didn't dare to express his position easily. He didn't care about civil servants and didn't have many worries. As a general leading troops, he had to consider Yuan Shao's thoughts more.
The two were chatting at the top of the city. Suddenly Yuan Shang pointed to more than twenty things that were pushed out of Guan Yu's army formation and asked: "General Lu, what is this?"
Lu Xiang turned around and frowned, never seen it before!
But, the more I look at it, the more I feel frightened, and the more I look at it, the more I feel like it’s going to be bad!
Another four-wheeled vehicle, but this time the four-wheeled vehicle is a bit strange. The four-wheeled vehicle made of pure iron looks very heavy. There is a ladder placed flat on it. It is about ten meters long by visual inspection. Most of it protrudes in front, which is enough.
It is ten meters long, and the back half is firmly fixed on the iron car, with only three or four meters protruding from the back.
More than twenty people were pushing towards this side side by side, and Lu Xiang's face became increasingly ugly.
When they arrived at the moat, the car reached its fastest speed. With a "boom" sound, it rushed straight into the moat and picked up a five- to six-meter-high water splash. After the water splash fell, the iron ladder stretched across it.
On the moat, because the iron car that fell into the river below acted as an anchor, the iron ladder frame was very strong and did not move at all.
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"
More than twenty iron cars were continuously pushed into the moat. In just ten minutes, a passage more than twenty meters wide was laid out. There was no danger of the moat at all!
Yuan Shang stared at the iron bridge with wide eyes, then turned to look at Lu Xiang. Lu Xiang's face turned red. The awesomeness he had just boasted was slapped in the face so quickly. It really made him want to find a crack in the ground to crawl under.
.
However, the top priority is not to save face, but that this huge army is really coming to attack the city soon.
"Commander Judge, take the young master down to the city quickly, the enemy is about to attack the city!" Lu Xiang took a deep breath, the time to fight had arrived.
Shen Pei looked at Lu Xiang deeply and said, "It all depends on General Lu. General, take care."
Before leaving, Shen Pei still tried his best to help Lu Xiang. His huge spiritual power radiated out and contacted all the city defenders through the clouds that filled the city.
"Calm down!"
"Be high-spirited!"
After using two mental skills in a row, Yuan Shaojun's panic completely disappeared, and his morale also increased.
Shen Pei's face turned pale and he couldn't help but stumble in his steps. He wiped the sweat from his head and glanced at Lu Xiang, "There's only so much I can do. I'll take the young master with me."
Lu Xiang nodded gratefully and watched Shen Pei and Yuan Shang walk down the city wall.
Don't think that this Nanpi City's surname is Yuan, and the Yuan family will do whatever they want in times of crisis. That's impossible. They are not those mud-legged people with precious lives and money.
A gentleman should not stand under dangerous walls. Obviously, Yuan Shang is a gentleman, and those soldiers who are not worthy of their names are nothing.
Obviously, under Wang Xuan's training, Liu Beijun would not let go of any opportunity to undermine the enemy's morale, and the guy holding the "big horn" weapon appeared again.
Under the protection of two guys with tall shields, and under Lu Xiang's eyes that wanted to kill, the roar rang out again, "Brothers at the top of the city, we are about to attack the city. We have no eyesight with swords and guns. Either death or death."
Hurt, at this moment when the war is about to begin, you are about to pay the price of your life to protect Nanpi City, but where is the owner of this city?"
"Where is the governor of Bohai? Is he fighting alongside you? They are preparing to surrender when you are dying."
"This is the city of the Yuan family. Yuan Shao's third son, Yuan Shang, is in the city. But at this moment, when you are dying, where is Yuan Shang?"
"Since they are not at the top of the city and are not prepared to make even a small sacrifice for it, then what is the point of guarding this Nanpi City with all your strength?"
"Did you eat a meal of meat before you died? Did you settle down your family before you died? Do you have any unfulfilled wishes before you die?"
"The attack on the city will begin in ten minutes. Brothers at the top of the city, think about it!"
