Liu Heng said angrily," These bastards who only know how to eat imperial food are all the same. You don't have to feel too wronged. It's not your fault for escaping. Tell me, how much do you know about the enemy?"”
Wang Qing shook his head." I don't know. I just know that there were a lot of them. Moreover, the archers were all very powerful. One of my brothers was shot to death by them from such a distance.”
"Yes!" Wang Qing said excitedly. General!"
Liu Heng estimated that it would be some time before the enemy arrived, so he ran up to the city wall and helped move things up the city wall, such as rolling wood, kerosene, and stones.
Liu Heng frowned when he saw that there weren't many of them. These things were all one-time-use. There were too few of them. It seemed that the enemy would start a hand-to-hand battle with us after a few attacks.
The able-bodied men and soldiers were evenly distributed to the four city gates. Wang Yanzhang, Gao Peng, Du Tao, and Liu Heng each had a city gate. There were many soldiers in the city and those who had escaped.
It wasn't that Liu Heng didn't trust them, but it was better to be careful now that the war was imminent. Disrupting this group of people would be under Liu Heng's own jurisdiction. There were still two hundred people in the city that Liu Heng had as a mobile unit.
When all these matters were done, it was already afternoon. Liu Heng stood on the city wall and waited for the enemy to arrive.
The autumn wind blew against Liu Heng's face. The sky was already a little cold, but Liu Heng could no longer feel it. Right now, his mind was completely blank. He only knew that when the enemy came up, he would just say the word " kill ". Han Tong was also waiting solemnly at the side. He absolutely could not let Young Master get hurt in the slightest.
Not long after, a dark shadow appeared in the distance. Everyone held their breaths. Liu Heng had mixed feelings. He was excited, nervous, and of course, a little afraid. However, he was the commander and could not show it on his face. His face was as cold as ice.
"General Liu, you've recognized me, haven't you?" The old man shouted from his horse. I'm telling you, don't be angry. I'm also doing this to survive. There are 20,000 enemies. Do you think you can defend with just your few people?
You'd better surrender! I've already told the Koreans about the situation in the city and the number of soldiers you have. You can't defend the city at all, so it's better for you to leave the city and surrender. The Koreans promise that they won't kill a single person in the city and will even give you glory and wealth!”
Liu Heng was furious and shouted,"Old man!" Do you know what your name is?
Aren't you afraid that your ancestor will jump out of the graveyard and strangle you to death? Let me surrender! I want you to ask these brothers, are you willing?”
The thieving old man's face was flushed red. He could not say anything else and said submissively,"You only know how to talk now. Let me tell you, when the army breaks through the city walls, don't regret it. I'll give you one night to think about it. Tomorrow morning, the army will attack from all sides.”
After saying that, he quickly got on his horse and left.
Liu Heng's words immediately eased the tense atmosphere among the soldiers. They all stood in the city and laughed.
Liu Heng laughed at him, but he was terrified. He cursed in his heart,"That damned old man, the county magistrate, has already told the Han people everything about the situation in the city. I was originally standing at the top of the city with flags and letting the able-bodied men stand there with weapons to deliberately mystify things. Now that the enemy has already understood the deployment of the troops in the city, they know that there are not many soldiers in the city, but there is sufficient food and grass. They want to attack quickly and eat us all up. That's why they are so assured to attack the city from all sides at the same time.”
Liu Heng felt troubled.
Liu Heng quickly called Wang Yanzhang over and whispered,""Ziming, pass down the order. Tonight, we will change the password every four hours. I will customize the password every time. Remember, the inspection must be strict, even if our own soldiers see it.
We'll endure a bit of hardship and watch the night on the top of the city wall after we're done replacing them. Although these Koreans are a bunch of barbarians and don't know much about intelligence, now that the Tang have betrayed us and that bullshit county magistrate is a scholar, he might actively come up with ideas to let the enemy launch a night attack. We don't have many soldiers, so we must be careful.”
"Don't worry, it'll definitely be fine!" Wang Yanzhang nodded vigorously.”
Liu Heng forced a smile and waved at Wang Yanzhang."Ziming, hurry up and deal with it. I'll wait at the top of the city wall.”
Wang Yanzhang looked at this person whom he had known for a long time and had always treated as his brother. He felt a lot of emotions in his heart. Ziyu was no longer the person he used to know. He was no longer the person who was always sloppy and did not behave properly. Ever since he entered the military camp, it was as if he had found his own world.
The new training method made the quality of the recruits improve rapidly. They loved the soldiers very much and gave their own money to their soldiers. The soldiers sacrificed themselves as if their brothers were dead, making everyone follow them wholeheartedly.
Liu Heng bent down and placed his hands on the green bricks on the top of the city wall. It seemed that many people would not be able to sleep tonight. Gao Peng walked up to Liu Heng and whispered to him,""General, you should go down and rest first. Everything has been arranged in the city. You don't have to worry.”
Liu Heng placed an arm on Gao Peng's shoulder and smiled at Gao Peng."" Gao Peng, will you regret following me? You used to be a bandit, eating and drinking freely. Now, not only do you have to follow many military camp rules, but you also have to go to the battlefield.”
"Regret?" Gao Peng laughed. I've never thought about it. I've learned a lot from following you. In the past, I only knew how to survive. Now, I know why I'm living. Besides, when I said that I would follow you, did I have any other choice?”
Gao Peng looked at Liu Heng with an evil smile.
" General," Gao Peng asked," you have a wealthy family and a beautiful wife. Won't you regret coming to the battlefield?"”
"Of course I regret it!" Liu Heng said. I don't want to be a playboy. I lead a group of servants to swagger around the city every day. I have nothing to do and flirt with women from good families. That life is so comfortable. However, by chance, such a wretched person like me actually brought troops. What do you think of this?”
