My players are all acting

General Geng Zhong remained silent, obviously it was difficult to make up his mind in such a short period of time.

Although the Beidi barbarians have already approached the city, no one knows when they will attack. What if they attack after killing the horse?

Keeping the military horses, at least a small part of the elite can break out of the siege, whether it is moving rescuers or preserving vitality, it is equivalent to an extra way out.

Killing horses can indeed solve the ration problem in a short period of time, but what if the barbarians surround them for a few more days? At that time, everyone will be trapped in the isolated city, and there is no hope of finally breaking through.

The reason why Zhao Haiping made this suggestion was, of course, because he knew exactly when the barbarians would attack.

Digging wells and splashing water can indeed play a role in psychological warfare, but the premise is that they must first withstand the first wave of barbarian attacks.

If the soldiers collapsed at the first touch due to excessive hunger and thirst, it would be useless even if they splashed water. The Beidi barbarians were not stupid.

Therefore, the horse must be killed now to keep the soldiers at their best.

The Beidi barbarians' attack was frustrated, and they found that there was a water source in the city, so they could retreat in spite of the difficulties.

However, it is impossible for Zhao Haiping to say that the Beidi barbarians are about to attack, that would seem too clever.

Just another way of saying it.

"General, the situation is urgent, we must make a decision early!

"Even if the army and horses are kept, only one out of ten people will be able to escape when the city breaks down. When we break out of Beidi's encirclement, there will be no one in a hundred who will be able to break through!

"This has long been an isolated city, and the surrounding cities have all been captured by Beidi, and it is difficult to move rescuers.

"Also, if a few people start riding horses to break through, the rest of the soldiers in the city will lose their morale and collapse at the first touch!

"As for killing army horses, there are two advantages.

"First, it can ensure that all soldiers meet the enemy in the best condition, relying on the city to cause the greatest casualties to Beidi people; second, it can show the general's determination to live and die with the city and improve morale!

"At that time, when the well is dug to produce water and the magic soldiers descend from the sky, it will deal a heavy blow to the morale of the Beidi people, and we will have the hope of surviving the desperate situation!"

General Geng Zhong remained silent, but the expression between his brows gradually became firm.

Finally, he slammed the table.

"well said!

"It's better for everyone to live and die with this city than a few people to break through the encirclement and barely survive!

"As long as our Da Chu sergeants are passionate, we will defend the border for our Da Chu and never take a step back!

"Order, kill the horse! Drill the well!"

...

Following the general's order, the Dachu soldiers in the city began to get busy.

The soldiers tearfully killed the army horses who had fought side by side with them for many years, and the seventh well began to be dug in full swing.

Bowls of horse meat were sent to the city, and the soldiers ate them while crying.

But when Zhao Haiping inspected the city, he could clearly feel that the whole city was in a state of high morale, which was completely different from the previous low state!

Because these soldiers were in a state of hunger and thirst, and they didn't know when the Beidi barbarians would attack. Some wanted to ride horses to break through, and some felt that they were waiting to die.

But now, the general ordered to kill horses and eat meat. Everyone knew that he had to live and die with the city!

After eating and drinking enough, all the confusion and hesitation disappeared, and the hatred for the Beidi barbarians was rekindled.

The soldiers had only one word in their hearts.

kill! !

Zhao Haiping took the broken bowl containing the horse meat from the soldier, and the meat was not delicious. After all, the horse meat was not delicious at all, not to mention that there was no condiment at all.

But it still rejuvenated his hungry and thirsty body.

"It turns out that this is the correct solution.

"Even if I choose the talent skill of enduring hunger, it's just that I am not hungry alone, and the condition of other soldiers will not be improved at all.

"If I had gotten out of the way, then the second stage would have been an endless loop that I would never get through.

"But now, the physical strength and morale of all soldiers have been greatly improved. Only in this way can the city have hope!"

...

The sun sets, and soon rises again.

Finally, the sound of rumbling war drums came from the city.

Beidi barbarians are about to attack!

Zhao Haiping found that the time of this dungeon is dynamic. If he does nothing, the time will pass quickly, and it will soon come to the time point when Beidi barbarians attack.

If he's been working, he's got a full day for various preparations.

Now, the time has finally come.

It's just that the well has been dug very deep, but there is still no sign of water.

General Geng Zhong wanted to give up, but Zhao Haiping still insisted on ordering people to dig. However, only a few soldiers remained, and most of them were transferred to the front line of the city.

The barbarians rushed towards the city like before!

A few defensive equipment that were barely usable threw stones at the barbarians, but with little effect. Soon, the barbarians climbed to the top of the city, and the two sides started hand-to-hand combat!

Zhao Haiping rushed forward again, desperately guarding the general's side.

Because he knew very well that no matter how many people died, General Geng Zhong could not die. Once the general is killed and the morale in the city collapses, the army will be defeated immediately.

Fortunately, this time, he found that the difficulty of the battle had dropped compared to before.

Because all the soldiers are full now, and their morale is high, their combat effectiveness is obviously not at the same level as before!

Moreover, Zhao Haiping, the deputy general, has also significantly improved his appeal to the soldiers.

In the first stage, when Zhao Haiping rushed into the crowd, he basically didn't get much support. Most of the time he was fighting alone, but now, wherever Zhao Haiping rushed, someone would follow without hesitation. Forming a small group greatly reduced Zhao Haiping's pressure, allowing him to fight among the Beidi barbarians to the limit.

Zhao Haiping didn't know how long he had been hacking for. Later, he was fighting almost entirely by instinct. Several times he almost died suddenly, but the soldiers of the Great Chu around him blocked the knife for him without fear of life and death. Only then did he survive.

Finally, the last Beidi barbarian on the top of the city also fell under his knife.

Zhao Haiping felt that his whole body was about to collapse. He pressed his long knife on the ground and barely maintained his standing posture.

At this time, he was covered in blood, and the armor on his body was also covered with knife marks.

Looking back, General Geng Zhong was also covered in blood on the top of the city where the bones were piled up like a mountain, but luckily he was fine.

"Hold it?"

Happiness came so suddenly, Zhao Haiping even felt uncomfortable for a while.

However, the dungeon didn't end or enter the third stage as he imagined.

The rumble of war drums under the city sounded again!

Zhao Haiping couldn't help being startled, he hurriedly looked down the city, only to see that the Beidi barbarians were gathering again!

Obviously, although the first round of offensive did not capture the city, and the Beidi barbarians also suffered heavy losses, they still firmly believed that the soldiers of Dachu were at the end of their strength, so they launched a second round of offensive no matter the cost!

The soldiers on the city all showed despair.

Because they are indeed reaching their limit at this time, if there is another round of such an attack, they will definitely not be able to hold on.

Just then, a soldier hurried to report.

"General! Out of the water, out of the water!"

General Geng Zhong's blood-stained face showed an expression of hopelessness. After a little thought, he immediately said: "Hurry up and transport the water to the top of the city!"

Soon, barrels of well water were sent to the city.

Seeing that the barbarians were about to attack, General Geng Zhong ordered to pour all the well water down.

General Geng Zhong stood at the top of the wall and laughed loudly: "Beidi barbarians! So what if you try your best to cut off my water source? I, Dachu, have God's help!"

The other soldiers also stood on the top of the wall and laughed.

Buckets of well water were poured down, and the Beidi barbarians who were about to launch an attack couldn't help but looked at each other in blank dismay and hesitated to move forward.

Obviously, even the leading general Beidi fell into hesitation.

They have been unable to attack for a long time, and their internal morale has long been low. This time, they cut off the stream and cut off the water source in the city. , and also found a new water source in the city!

Is it really God's blessing?

At this time, the confidence of the Beidi barbarians was dealt a fatal blow, and they finally collapsed.

On the top of the wall, Zhao Haiping barely supported his body and slowly recovered his strength.

According to the historical script, it is time for the Beidi barbarians to retreat at this time.

But this is not real history after all, who knows if this game will suddenly become inappropriate.

Therefore, he could only wait patiently with great anxiety.

Finally, he saw that the Beidi barbarians did not attack again, but finally gave up and chose to retreat.

Only then did Zhao Haiping let out a sigh of relief, his strength was exhausted, and he fell to the top of the wall with his eyes darkened.

Phase two is finally over!

...

Fog filled the field of vision.

Zhao Haiping's previous fatigue and pain all disappeared.

But this is not good news for him, because he knows very well that the guessed third stage is really coming!

The fog cleared, and Zhao Haiping returned to the familiar city.

Only this time, it was completely different from the previous two stages.

As far as the eye can see, everything is covered with white snow, and there are also large flakes of snow floating in the sky, falling on the shoulders of the soldiers defending the city.

And the gray on the heads of those soldiers was not snow, but white hair.

Some of these soldiers were rickety, some were withered, and they all turned into old men in their seventies!

Looking down at himself again, Zhao Haiping found that his body had also become very old, and the armor on his body was even more dilapidated.

The body is still fairly strong, but it is completely incomparable with the state when he was young.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Haiping felt a gust of cold wind penetrate through the gaps in the armor, icy cold to the bone.

Although he was wearing a cotton padded jacket under the armor, the cotton wadding in the several cracks had disappeared. In the howling wind, he could only be shivering from the cold.

Things were even worse for other soldiers.

Under the city, there was once again the rumble of war drums from the Beidi people.

Zhao Haiping couldn't help but sighed, and the last glimmer of hope was finally shattered.

This game is really inappropriate!

Guess you have three stages, do you really have them?

It's just a novice dungeon, how difficult it is!

There is another chapter in the afternoon, and it will be updated at 10 o'clock tomorrow
