"But sir, if they escape this ti, will they still co back? Knowing that we have such weapons, they might not commit all their troops, right?"
Lin Yi had also considered this.
After this ti, it’s unlikely that the enemy could gather such a large army again, right?
But after much thought, he felt that might not be the case; it was very possible that the enemy wouldn’t give up this opportunity.
He had only fired one shot just now, and although it was loud, the enemy might think it was just a fluke,
Or even if they knew his side had powerful weapons, it probably wouldn’t affect their entire army, right?
In other words, to put it another way, they might believe that if the main force advanced, it was very likely they would achieve the desired result.
"Rest assured, go down and wait. Military achievents will not be without your share. As long as they dare to co, we’ll make sure to keep them here.
Now everyone conserve your energy, take turns on sentry duty, and the rest go rest to be ready for battle at any mont."
After all, this is a drawn-out battle, not sothing that can be finished in a day or two,
And for that reason, it’s imperative not to go into battle without resting.
Once everyone is exhausted and there’s nobody left to fight, the fall of the city walls is imminent.
Moreover, at this mont, those barbarians had returned to camp five miles away, and the big fellow was being bandaged,
Clearly, half of his ear was already gone, and the remaining half was a bloody ss, beyond saving.
Of course, even if it couldn’t be saved, there were no surgeries at this ti, so the tiny bit of remaining ear had to be wrapped up in the bandage.
As for the Deputy General, although he did not die on the spot, the passing bullet left a bloodied hole.
The dical skills of the barbarians were naturally not as advanced as those of Huaxia.
And during a war, it’s naturally unlikely that there would be highly skilled military doctors present,
So, they could only bandage him up simply, leaving the rest to fate and whether or not he would survive.
The bullet was also deeply lodged in his bones, with no way to remove it, or rather, no one knew there was still a piece stuck inside.
Just like that, he lost all his fighting capability, lying weakly on the bed.
Now, it’s the height of sumr, and the weather is scorching hot. Wounded without anti-inflammatory drugs, one can only leave it to fate, as the current dicines can’t save him.
Looking at how he had just arrived and already lost a strong warrior, Yelu Qi was furious to the extre,
But when he angrily slamd his hand down, he was t with a sharp pain from the remaining bit of his ear. The pain made him grimace.
"Dammit, what kind of tactics have they used to shoot off my ear? Ah, it infuriates . Everyone, be vigilant; we attack tonight."
Following his command, the ssenger Soldier imdiately relayed the order.
That’s right, he wanted to do the unexpected. Normally, attacks happen during the day and retreating at night,
But he decided differently, planning to attack at night.
Although it would be very difficult and tough on his n,
The defense of the opposition would undoubtedly be most relaxed at this ti.
And so, by catching them off guard, who knows, the city might be taken in one fell swoop,
Especially under the circumstances of today, the other side might think that at least tonight an attack wouldn’t co,
Or perhaps they might be wondering whether a siege is about to happen, and precisely then is the perfect mont to catch them by surprise.
One must admit, Yelu Qi’s leadership is formidable. For any other general, for any other army without Firearms, it would likely be as he said,
Even though the defenses might be stricter at night, they certainly won’t be as attentively waiting as during the dayti.
And so, the ti quickly arrived at night. After burying pots to cook and having dinner, the barbarians once again assembled,
Looking at the brave and skilled warriors before him, Yelu Qi’s previously frustrated heart was filled with anger again, and at the sa ti, his confidence surged.
Our barbarian army is unrivaled.
Isn’t Hangu Pass easy to conquer?
Not to ntion Hangu Pass, it’s not impossible for us to go straight to the Capital City in one go.
Hmph, after all, these Han people nowadays are more cowardly than the last, just take that Eighth Prince, for example. With heavy troops in his hands, he doesn’t even have the courage to battle against himself, instead, he turns to ally with himself.
Hmph, truly a pushover.
He believes that after tonight, Hangu Pass will definitely fall into his hands,
And this ti he hasn’t been vague, directly deploying an army of 150,000 to lay siege,
Of course, the remaining 150,000 n wouldn’t just idle around; they continued to press forward,
Last ti he stopped at a position 800 steps away and got ambushed; this ti he directly stopped three miles away.
From this distance, they could clearly see everything in front of them,
After all, the forest in front of the city had already been cleared by their logging efforts.
After all, when 300,000 people act in unison, it’s like a plague of locusts passing through, leaving all the trees and weeds instantly barren.
At this mont, the area outside Hangu Pass is truly vast.
anwhile, speaking of Lin Yi at this mont, after a day of waiting and noticing that the enemy had retreated with no further news,
Lin Yi also descended from the city wall and went to the City Lord Mansion to take a little rest,
After all, he wasn’t made of iron; he needed sleep, food, and rest.
That’s why he took off his armor.
Back at ho, when he arrived, Xiao Xiao had already prepared everything for him,
And she had also prepared a tub for bathing.
But at this mont, Lin Yi didn’t have this on his mind,
The arrow was on the string, and there was no knowing when the enemy might attack,
Therefore, he did not indulge in too much gentleness but simply sparred and solved the issue briefly with Xiao Xiao,
Then returned to the top of the city wall, where there were naturally places to rest.
There were houses built upon it, and even a tall Command Tower, where Lin Yi was.
"Sir, do you think the enemy will attack tonight?
According to common sense, they wouldn’t co at this ti, but who knows why that old guy is so quiet."
A general who saw Lin Yi asked, and following these words, Tie Niu let out a hehe laugh:
"Hehe, don’t worry, that old thing just lost his ears today, probably going to keep quiet for a while,
At least during this period, they probably won’t siege the city.
Perhaps during this ti, he will send out spies to try to infiltrate us and find out what has happened."
Listening to everyone’s back and forth analysis, Lin Yi spoke up:
"Now is a critical ti; no one knows when the enemy will co to attack,
So pass the order down, everyone should rest in turns, always maintaining battle readiness.
Rember, these Firearms munitions must be loaded at all tis.
One must ensure that once on the city wall, they can fire anyti."
As for whether loading the ammunition might pose a danger, the risk can be negated.
After all, these modern Firearms and the firearms of later ages are not the sa; there isn’t the risk of accidental discharge.
After all, to fire, one needs to fix the flint on it first.
If one really wants to describe it, the current shape of this weapon sowhat resembles those shotgun-like launchers used for launching fireworks seen on the internet in later ages.
After lighting the fuse, one would then aim.
However, just as Lin Yi’s voice fell, suddenly a ssenger Soldier ran over in a hurry.
