The warriors and horses under Artik lost 2000 people, and the siege of Armed Forces outside the city continued. In order not to affect the battle strength, he must replenish all the lost warriors.

It is the most convenient way to draw some troops from the most elite soldiers to supplement the city gates, but Artik is not willing to do so. He requires scattered soldiers and horses stationed in the city to gather together. There are 2000 people. At the same time, there are also 2000 soldiers and horses joining the construction equipment. They each draw 1000 soldiers and horses to disperse support to each damaged army. In addition, 5000 soldiers and horses are drawn from the young and middle-aged people in the city for simple training. Ready to reinforce the city head at any time.

The soldiers and horses of each city gate are defended in turn according to 3 waves, and each team defends for 2 hours, and then they will be replaced, that is, they will be rotated every 4 hours to maintain physical strength as much as possible.

From the morning to the dark, a total of 6 hours have passed, so all the soldiers and horses have been rotated once, even the night and night soldiers and horses have participated in the battle, and the following night battles, these soldiers and horses will continue to rotate To defend the city, each battle must last for 4 hours, after which, you can rest for 8 hours.

The soldiers and horses on the siege side are also rotated almost every 2 hours. However, there are more soldiers and horses on the siege side. They can have many waves instead of having to maintain only 3 waves.

Altic stayed upstairs in the city gate almost all day. He was very concerned about the situation of the fortifications. Even the meals were held in the upstairs of the city gate. However, the noise here is too loud. If he thinks about it well, When you rest, you must return to the center of the city, where there are better conditions. The distance and the sound insulation of the building can minimize the noise of the offensive and defensive city, which is conducive to sleep.

The soldiers had to guard the city at night. He did n’t have to ask in person. If the rest was not good, he would n’t be able to command well on 2nd day. Of course, he did n’t command anything. His ideas were all from his staff. Too.

“Are reinforcements in place?”

Before leaving, Artic asked with concern.

“City Lord, 2000 soldiers and horses have been added in place. You can rest assured to go back and rest. Qi Yade can’t help us with those few brushes. He can’t attack the city.”

The subordinate said confidently.

Altick nodded and said: “Very good, yes, 5000 reserve soldiers should also be prepared as soon as possible, and a lot of soldiers and horses must be damaged after a night of operation, and they need to continue to be added.”

“The city master is assured that we are all preparing for these tasks and will not delay things.”

The subordinate quickly said.

“By the way, we must tell all the guards of the city to rest immediately after going to the city. Their current task is to rest besides fighting and eating. Only when the rest is done can we work harder and do nothing else. dry.”

Artik said.

This is to restrict the freedom of the soldiers and not allow the soldiers to leave the military area at will. The purpose of this is to allow the soldiers to rest better, and 2 to prevent some soldiers from taking the opportunity to hide and become deserters. What they lack the most now is the strength of the troops. If there is a deserter, it will make the operation of the city defensive worse.

“Yes, the city master, his subordinates know what to do.”

The subordinate responded quickly.

Artick finally gave a long and confidant account, and then left the city with a group of guards and returned to his residence.

The offensive outside the city has never stopped. Ziyad issued a death order to let his subordinates attack Maiya City day and night. As long as the city is not broken, the battle cannot be stopped.

It does n’t matter if there is a loss of Armed Forces. Anyway, they have a lot of people, and they have more than 100 surnames. Daying still has 20000 backup forces, enough to support their operations, and the loss of personnel can be replenished at any time. In addition, Daying ’s siege equipment is not In the stopped manufacturing, the damaged equipment can also be replaced very well, and even more and better siege equipment can be obtained, making siege easier.

“General, the soldiers have been attacking for a day. It’s getting dark, or will they continue to attack?”

Asked his subordinates.

Ziyad nodded and said: “Of course I will continue to attack, haven’t I said that before? If you don’t capture Maiyar City, you won’t retreat and continue to attack.”

“Yes, you have been tired for a day, General, let’s go back to the camp to rest! We can do it here.”

The subordinates said with concern.

Ziyad shook his head: “I will not go back to the big camp, just rest here, listening to the cry of the soldiers, I will sleep better.”

Qi Yade, who has been fighting for many years, has been used to sleeping in the noise. As long as he is willing to sleep, even if there is a magnificent army with thousands of men and horses fighting outside, he still sleeps correctly. Without this ability, how to command magnificent army with thousands of men and horses.

Especially when he was confronted by the enemy’s exhaustion, he slept peacefully. Only when he rested well can he devote more energy to the subsequent operations.

“The siege at night cannot be weakened at all. Both the siege horses and the raiders must be in place. 10000000 can’t give the enemy a breathing opportunity, and it will completely exhaust Artic.”

Ziyad finally confessed, and then dismounted to go to the tent next to it to rest. There is still some distance from the city wall, and under some camouflage, the soldiers and horses in the city could not be found simply, and naturally they could not attack him.

The supreme commanders of both sides went to rest, but the battle of attacking and defending the city continued. Because it was dark, the sun had already gone down, and it was a cloudy day tonight, so it was dark everywhere, and it was impossible to see the distance Situation.

The best thing about concealment is the Archer of Khorasan hiding in the trench. Under the cover of the night, they occasionally sneak attack the soldiers on the city head, but they are difficult to fight back because the soldiers on the city head cannot see The situation in the trench is not visible at all, and it is necessary to take a risk of probing the body to detect it, but nothing can be detected, and their own situation is easily seen by the other party.

This is because the city wall where they are located is relatively high. In order to see the defensive equipment clearly, the head of the city is filled with bonfires, which naturally further increases the transparency of the guards and the horses. Although the attacking side also ignited a large number of torch , But the location of these torch is in the position of the catapult and the arrow car, and the location of the Archer closest to the city wall hiding in the trench is completely without light, and the trench itself is easy to hide the soldiers, so they It is the only thing that can’t be discovered by the enemy.

These trenches were dug hard by the soldiers in the city. If they knew that it would be the result, they would not do such things in life and death. Way, otherwise, the casualties of defending the city will be too great.

“General, the enemy Archer is hiding in the trench, we simply cannot see them. They have been shooting cold arrows at us, shooting many of our soldiers. This will definitely not work, and our casualties will be much more than during the day.”

A soldier said urgently.

The general was furious and walked to the front of a catapult, loudly said: “Fireball, immediately fire the Fireball, aim at the first trench outside the city, and must find the soldiers hiding inside.”

“General, these Fireballs are specifically used to deal with enemy siege equipment and are used to illuminate trenches. It is really too wasteful, and it is not necessarily effective. Is it really necessary to do this?”

The little man operating the catapult said.

“Don’t worry about whether it works or not, understood if you try it first.”

General ordered.

Soon, all the catapults adjusted their angles, aligned with the trenches, and fired the lit Fireball.

A large number of Fireballs were thrown down, most of them were missed. Only a few Fireballs fell into the trench and illuminated part of the trench, but the lighting effect was still very poor. After all, the trench was dug deep and the Fireball fell into the trench At the bottom, the illuminated area is also the bottom of the trench, not at all illuminates the entire trench, and the hidden Khorasan Archer is still invisible.

“General, you see, simply how effective it is.”

Said the soldier operating the catapult.

“pa ……”

It was during this time that a stone came over and smashed a critical part of the fortified trebuchet, that is, the trebuchet could no longer be used, which made the general angry.

In the fierce confrontation between the two sides, this situation is very common. The equipment on both sides may be damaged, and the soldiers may also be attacked and injured. Otherwise, it is not a war, but a game.

Enemy crossbowmen are hiding in invisible trenches and placing cold arrows. This situation is very headache. The key problem is that the soldiers who defend the city ca n’t help but stick their heads out. The effects of crossbow and catapult attacks cannot even be written in combat reports.

Just when the general was very annoyed, Great Tang came with a batch of wooden masks and armor.

These masks were all completed under his personal guidance. Although they look rough, they definitely have the strength to resist bows and arrows, and they do not affect the sight and the flexibility of the body.

Armor made of bamboo can well protect the neck and the upper chest below the neck, so that the soldiers will not be killed because of the attack of arrows.

“These are defensive masks and simple armor. There are only 100 sets in total. Let the soldiers try it and see how it works.”

The general gave a glance and opened the mouth and said: “It looks pretty good, okay, I will let the soldiers give it a try.”

Many, some soldiers who need the probe to look down, are wearing a mask and armor, so that their defensive strength is greatly increased.

Of course, because of the limited number of equipment, it is not guaranteed that all soldiers will be equipped with this Divine Item, and this equipment can only reduce the proportion of casualties, and cannot completely avoid casualties. It has the same effect as the helmet. It is to reduce the casualties of the soldiers.

Because there is no lining, the wooden mask is not very comfortable to wear on the face, there is a relatively uncomfortable feeling, but in order to protect his life, it must be worn, no soldiers have opinions.

The effect of the mask quickly became apparent. In less than one hour, more than a dozen soldiers were shot into the mask by arrows, and more than a dozen soldiers were shot into armor, and these were shot. The soldiers, all without exception, were not injured. They were slightly injured while alive, but a few injuries were still serious, but overall, they still worked very well. At least, they reduced the defenses by dozens of horses. Casualties.

All the masks and armor that were shot were quickly gathered, and the Great Tang teenager will personally check to see how these masks and armor will react after being shot.

“Look at these masks, none of them were shot through. The arrows are all embedded in the wood. There are no scars on the soldier’s face. It seems to be a very useful thing.”

The general was very satisfied with the nodded, and felt that the mask was a good thing, and it really could protect the soldiers’ lives.

“These bamboo pieces can also defend arrows, but unfortunately they are one by one. The gap between the bamboo pieces and these wounded soldiers are all shot into the gap. Unfortunately, this gap is not easy to handle! If there is no gap With a complete bamboo tube, the neck is difficult to move. The best is the ring armor, which can protect the neck well, but there are too few iron rings in the city. Even if it is manufactured now, it will not be completed.

Little Tang said regretfully.

These bamboo pieces of armor were designed by him personally, similar to the mahjong mats of later generations, each small piece of bamboo can block the attack of the arrow, but the gap between the pieces can’t stop the arrow, if the bow and arrow Just hit the crack, it would shoot the soldier.

There is also a certain amount of sliding after the arrow hits the bamboo piece, sliding from the edge of the bamboo piece to the gap and causing damage to the soldier.

Of course, because the sliding will also reduce the strength, the slit of the bamboo is narrower than the arrow of the arrow, and there are two layers of fabric blocking, so in general, even if it is shot into the gap, the arrow will be blocked by the blocking. The intensity is reduced, so as to reduce the injuries of the soldiers, so that the injuries are not too serious.

The general was satisfied with the nodded and said: “It’s not bad! As long as it can weaken the casualties of the soldiers, that’s a good thing! You should build more, especially these masks, which are very good and should be given priority.”

The great Tang said: “I asked the craftsmen just now, and now they say that they can only make so much, and they must have the orders of your city lord before they can continue to make more masks and armor.”

The general said angrily: “The soldiers in front of me bleed their lives. They dare to do this, which is really annoying.”

“Otherwise, you will send someone to meet your city master, and ask the city master to order the craftsmen, so that there is no reason why the craftsmen should not manufacture.

Great Tang said with a smile.

“The city lord should have rested, to disturb him for such a trivial matter, is this not quite appropriate.”

The general was hesitant.

“It’s about the life and death of the soldiers. This can also be called a trivial matter. It is important for your city master to sleep. Isn’t the life of the soldiers important?”

Little Tang said not so happy.
