There are a lot of big guys, and carrying them will indeed have a great impact on the march, but this thing is a good thing in this era, don't be a pity, you can only bring it.

Fortunately, Night Breeze has a virtual space, and his current level is almost 20. It took half a level to expand it, and put the [-] shi of grain inside, and put other things outside. I am not willing to lose it, and it is not a pity to lose it.

Food is a precious thing. The temperature in the virtual space is completely controlled by Night Breeze, so there will be no problems in storing food, which is better than keeping it outside.

More than 20 minutes later, with the closure of the dam gate, Night Breeze immediately asked Sikong Zhaixing and Chu Liuxiang to investigate.

Before they blocked Zhu Wushi, and moved faster by virtue of their speed advantage, now Zhu Wushi is in front of them, the speed is not slower than them, they have to guard against being ambushed by Zhu Wushi.

The truth is that Night Breeze thought too much.

Chu Liuxiang was the first to bring back the information, and Zhu ignored that it was almost four hours away from his side's retreat.

Night Breeze hurried on in peace.

After nine o'clock in the evening, the army settled down to rest early, and the report from Sikong Zhaixing came back.

"Zhu Wushi is still on his way overnight after dinner, and he is not far from Baguan." Sikong Zaixing said.

"Not good! The Baguan Army is not all the elite, and they don't know that Zhu Wushi will arrive so soon. If Zhu Wushi attacks overnight with a tired army, we are likely to lose without any precautions." Li Shimin said.

In the Chinese army's tent, when everyone heard this, their complexions suddenly changed.

"We must notify in time so that our army can take precautions," Ye Feng said.

"Who will go? Zhu Wushi is too close now, the fastest horse can't catch up, right?" Xiao Longnv rarely spoke.

"I'll go in person." Night Breeze said.

Everyone glanced at each other, and that was all they could do.

Night Breeze immediately called out Qilin, and then said to Xu Mao: "Sir, let the army rise as soon as possible, I'm afraid the army in Baguan won't be able to withstand it."

"Okay, don't worry, the prince." Xu Maogong promised.

With Xu Maogong in charge of the overall situation, Night Breeze had nothing to worry about, so he stepped on the Qilin and ran towards Baguan.

After running all the way, Night Breeze finally arrived at Baguan ahead of Zhu Wushi.

It was already ten o'clock in the evening. It was so late, Chen Zhong, Xue Rengui, and Luo Chengcheng were asleep. When they knew that Night Breeze had returned, they got up immediately. Night Breeze met them in the study of the General's Mansion.

"Prince! What's the rush when you come back so late?"

"Zhu Wushi is about to reach Baguan." Night Breeze said calmly, Zhu Wushi's arrival may not be a big crisis, but it is no longer a threat.

"How could it be? Our spies said at dusk that they still have half a day to arrive." Chen Zhong couldn't believe it.

"This guy traveled overnight, and I was afraid that he would also attack the city overnight, so he ran back." Night Breeze said.

"Then let's hurry up and get the soldiers up?" Chen Zhong said.

Night Breeze waved his hand, "You don't need to shout all of them, just increase the garrison by 3000 people first. If they don't come now but come during the day, we call the soldiers to wake up now and it will affect the spirit of tomorrow."

"Okay, I'm going to make arrangements." Chen Zhong walked out.

Night Breeze was worried for nothing. Zhu Wushi didn't come to attack that night, but stationed ten miles outside Baguan.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the official siege began!
Night Breeze stood at the top of the city, watching the army that kept coming out of the camp.

In the big camp of the Ming army, neat square formations were set up one by one. The soldiers in the square formation set up the last ladder and pushed the stone throwers and building carts forward.

And the Ming soldiers are also full of energy and have high morale. Although they have been defeated in a row, when they know that the main combat force in Baguan is a group of weak chickens, their morale is also high. arrogant.

Night Breeze looked at Xue Rengui, "It seems that these soldiers don't take the Inner City Army seriously. How are you doing?"

"Prince, don't worry, after training for the past few days, not to mention that the hard power is stronger than the army in front of you on the frontal battlefield, but you are definitely not afraid of fighting against them, let alone just defending the city." Xue Rengui said.

Night Breeze knew that Xue Rengui had always been conservative in his speech, he was a person who could only say [-] or even [-] or [-] out of a hundred, and now that he heard what he said, he felt relieved a lot.

boom!
It was also at this time that a trebuchet of the enemy army hit a huge boulder, and when the sound of the tremor sounded, the defensive battle of Baguan officially started!
Things like trebuchets are very useful for attacking cities and villages.

Under the bombardment of the boulders thrown by the large trebuchet, the general city wall may be smashed down by several waves.

Compared with a checkpoint like Baguan, the city wall is seven meters thick, so it is not so easy to collapse. The rock-throwing machine can serve as a fire cover.

At this moment, the dense firepower caused by a large number of small ripraps is better.

"All use the wall to cover, get down!" Xue Rengui's cry sounded.

Boom boom boom!
Shi Qi, followed by dozens of stone bullets falling, and then wave after wave, they were thrown up one after another. Although the accuracy was not very good, the soldiers on the top of the wall did not dare to pick up their heads. .

Fortunately, most of the trebuchets were captured by Night Breeze, otherwise the firepower would be even stronger.

Night Breeze looked at the city walls on both sides from the city gate tower. Although the soldiers were hiding behind the arrows or behind the city walls, there were still some casualties.

"The enemy approached within [-] steps." The voice of the observer came out.

"Launch the trebuchet in the city!" Chen Zhong and Xue Rengui issued orders at the same time.

For a while, the trebuchets in the city also started firing stone bombs.

It is said that the launch of the stone catapult in the city was delayed due to the angle problem, but the lethality to the Ming army far exceeded that of the Ming army catapult to the city defenders.

The defending army is covered by walls and arrows, while the siege army can only block it with shields.

A stone is not an arrow, even if it is blocked by a shield, it still has to break the bones of the person holding the shield below, and a larger stone can smash the person and the shield to the ground.

When a wave of trebuchets was launched in the city, large gaps appeared one after another in the army phalanx outside the city, and hundreds of people were killed and injured.

By the time the advance reached fifty steps, the Ming army had already paid the price of 3000 men.

On the city wall, there were less than 100 people dead and injured.

Speaking of which, most of them are from the inner city army. Although they have been in the army for many years and their combat power has been trained by Xue Rengui, most of them have never seen blood. In terms of mental endurance, they are still recruits.

Now watching his companions fall in front of him one by one, seeing the real blood, the people who were alive and kicking turned into silent corpses in front of his eyes.

They were sad at first.

Immediately after hearing the sound of the boulder falling, it was fear.

No more numbness.

After the numbness passes, all that is left for everyone is the will to survive to dominate themselves.

To survive, you must use what you have learned to kill the enemy! This has become their only belief.

This is the process of sublimation from recruits to veterans, a cruel process, time cannot be given to them, training cannot be given to them, only by training with blood on the real battlefield.

It can be said that these soldiers are lucky. As a defending army, there is enough time for most of them to go through this process safely. If they are on the battlefield, they are not so lucky.

Xue Rengui looked at the changes in his soldiers, nodded in satisfaction, and shouted: "This is the battlefield, and it is also the last training ground for you to become an elite. Congratulations, you have successfully entered the category of elite veterans!"

The soldiers did not speak.

Xue Rengui continued, "Now, the enemy has entered within a hundred steps. As archers, what you have to do is to take up your bows and arrows and cause as much casualties as possible to the enemy below the city."

This time there is still no answer, but as archers, they have already taken out their bows and arrows, put their bows and arrows, and pointed at the army under the city.

And the enemies below are not within the range because the bows and arrows are going to shoot upwards, and they cannot suppress the bows and arrows.

"Let the arrow!" Xue Rengui and Chen Zhong shouted together.

hum!
The archers of the inner city army, the archers of the Baguan army, and the 5000 soldiers of Yefeng, a total of [-] people, all shot arrows.
