Zhao Wudi and the others quickly passed through the transportation road in the city and returned to the general's line.
Qin Gang reported the strength of the Turks, and the smiles on the faces of several border army bigwigs disappeared immediately, all of them looked solemn, breathed rapidly, and even unconsciously clenched their hands tightly.
"General Xue, how is the battle damage of our army today?"
Qin Huaiyu asked.
"Shuofang City has 8,000 soldiers, 4,000 auxiliary soldiers, including 3,000 cavalry, today's battle, nearly 2,000 people who were killed and wounded and can no longer fight, and now the total number of soldiers who can fight in the city is nearly 10,000."
Xue Na was the deputy general, and after Qin Huaiyu was injured and left the city, he took over the command and was responsible for the aftermath of the war.
"Hiss" Qin Huaiyu took a big breath of cold air, his face was solemn, and said: "Our department, including auxiliaries and cavalry, only has 10,000 people, and the enemy cavalry is more than 20,000, so it will be difficult to fight next."
"General, the water comes to cover the earth, the soldiers are coming to block, the Turks dare to come to attack the city, and the humble officials call him to come and go," a bearded general roared angrily.
"Hahaha Li Qiao is right, we have the city in hand, no matter how many Turkic cavalry there are, we can still fly up to the city with wings," another arrogant-looking general laughed.
After the two of them talked and laughed, the atmosphere in the lobby eased and was no longer dull.
"Zhao Wudi, what else do you have to say?"
Qin Huaiyu asked.
Qin Huaiyu saw that Zhao Wuving's face was solemn and silent, and he thought that this kid was young and couldn't hold his breath, and he was robbed of the limelight by Qin Gang, and his heart was unhappy.
"General, I saw a craftsman in the enemy camp making a batch of siege equipment, please borrow a pen and paper."
Zhao Wushu said in a deep voice.
The general has to deal with official documents every day, and the paper and pen on the bookcase are ready-made, and Qin Huaiyu motioned for him to use it.
At the same time, General Qin was also quite curious in his heart, this young man was extraordinary, bold and careful, and now it seemed that he still knew words, and he suddenly looked at it again.
There are not many scholars in the Tang Dynasty, and knowledge is firmly held in the hands of those ancient families, and it is not easy for the children of the poor family to read a book and know a word.
A boy who can write and martial arts, is seventeen years old, and in the Tang Army, he has a great future.
General Qin Huaiyu estimated in his heart: This is a piece of jade, it should be won over as soon as possible, only by turning him into himself can he rest assured, otherwise, maybe Lao Wei will start, and he didn't see that Lao Wei's eyes were glowing green As for how to win over, it is a university question, and the best way is to get married.
It's a pity that my daughter is only six years old, and time doesn't wait for anyone, or I will give him the fourteen-year-old girl in the third room of our house In this way, this kid picked up a big bargain and became Lao Tzu's sister-in-law, a doll is on an equal footing with Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu's capital, no, it's Lao Tzu who is sincere enough The general Qin Huaiyu was there to feel whether it was appropriate to marry a girl or a sister, while Zhao Wudi pulled the paper and pen and ink, and after grinding, he picked up the brush and drew the words of the siege vehicle on the paper.
A slope that can be moved by oxen and horses, next to a city wall, the top of the slope is flush with the head of the city, in order to achieve a realistic effect, so as not to let those bearded people kill their brains, Zhao Wudi deliberately drew a cavalry on the slope to fight horses uphill.
Not to mention, Zhao Wuving's ink painting skills are very solid, and the paintings are vivid and lifelike, painting the Turkic cavalry as ferocious, hideous and terrifying.
Zhao Zheng, who often laughs at "color", is a civil official, with poetry and calligraphy in his belly, not those who kill can be compared, and it can be seen at a glance that this is an unprecedented and unique style of painting, and he immediately committed the old mistake of the literati, forgetting that he was in the tiger tent, and couldn't help but cheer the drummers.
Zhao Zheng cheered, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, well, why did no one respond On weekdays, if Lao Wei and I show off our poems, although these old coarse and killers don't understand fart, it doesn't prevent them from pretending to understand vassal elegance and applauding loudly.
He raised his eyes and looked around, and found that Qin Huaiyu and Xue Na were staring at the horse, while Lao Wei also stretched his neck, his brows furrowed, and his eyes were motionless.
Only those few killers looked dazed, and I couldn't understand why the general liked that horse, and I just looked at it The general likes the war horses of the Turks, and if you say it, just point out which horse it is, and I will immediately go out of the city and bring it back to you.
"General, in this way, the city wall will be changed into a thoroughfare, and our advantage will be gone."
Wei Wenchang sighed.
"Running horses on the city wall, this is really a horse running on the city wall, how can the Turks come up with such a clever trick" Xue Na felt that he was too a failure, he was even more stupid than a Turkic dog, and beat his head with a fist like a bowl.
Qin Huaiyu didn't speak, his eyes looked at Zhao Wushu in a daze, with sadness and expectation in his eyes, and even a hint of begging.
Since the Battle of Yinshan six years ago, Qin Huaiyu felt so powerless for the first time, in the face of such a sharp weapon, Shuofang City would no longer exist, and tens of thousands of soldiers would have no chance of survival.
This will be the end of Shuofang City and the end of the Tang Dynasty Zhao Wudi did not give him the answer he wanted, but instead drew a picture of the return cannon, and briefly wrote its characteristics, and emphasized that the stone bullet it fired weighed 300 catties.
The painting is a good painting, and the words are like a knife and an axe, vigorous and powerful, however, this time even Zhao Zheng saw that there was a big problem here, and he didn't make a sound.
"The repeated attacks of three hundred catties of stone bullets, can our city gate resist it" Qin Huaiyu seemed to ask, and seemed to be talking to himself.
"No," Schner, shaking his head, vetoed it categorically.
The cavalry siege vehicles and return artillery are like a thousand boulders pressing on people's hearts, making people breathless.
"Boy, since you know this sharp weapon, do you have a way to deal with it?"
Wei Wenchang asked.
"Wei Sima, I was a young man" Zhao Wudi needs to find a background for himself, otherwise, his martial arts and a lot of knowledge beyond this era How to explain People live in this world, they are all fighting in the rolling red dust, they all have their heels and origins, and they cannot become water without a source and a tree without roots.
Who knows, before Zhao Wudi could make up a strange and mysterious origin, he was interrupted by Wei Wenchang: "Boy, the old man doesn't want to ask about your origin, as long as you are dedicated to the Tang Dynasty and the common people in this world, it will be enough."
As long as you can resolve the current crisis in Shuofang City, the old man promises you that during the old man's lifetime, there will be no one to track down your heels in my Wei family. ” This is Wei Wenchang's guarantee, and it is also the promise of Zheng Guogong Wei Zheng's lineage, for Zhao Wudi in front of him, this promise is precious The gentleman reaffirmed his promise, as long as the Wei family does not stop, this promise will be inherited from generation to generation:
