Chapter 233 The world is awake

War is like this. Every step, step by step, can always lead to many problems.

After the hidden dangers of the support method were eliminated, Li Mengxi began to actually operate the final step of defending the city.

The city wall of Wen'an County is very narrow, and only four people can stand side by side. No matter how many people there are, they will not be able to stand.

Li Mengxi only allowed three rows of people to stand on the wall, leaving room for people to move around.

On the city, Li Mengxi waved a military flag, and a group of about 20 country warriors, whom Li Mengxi had already told him about, quickly rushed down the stairs to the top of the city and rushed to the city wall to squeeze towards Li Mengxi.

The single pass was successful, no one blocked the road, and the village heroes successfully arrived.

Then, during the actual battle, there was fighting at the top of the city. There would be people ascending to the city and people going down. For example, wounded soldiers were carried down from the city. For example, the civilians who were transporting arrows had to go down after transporting the arrows.

This is the case in actual combat, so military training must be consistent with actual combat, and this should also be the case.

So, Li Mengxi sent two teams of people at the same time, one team and the other team.

"Hurry up!" Li Mengxi urged from the city.

The people on the city were running down, and the people below the city were running up and down. Then the two groups met on a narrow road. You squeezed and I blocked the narrow space. The two groups of people squeezed and pushed each other.

After a while, the talents are completely staggered from head to tail.

This won't work, it's a waste of time.

Li Mengxi's hands behind his back clenched involuntarily, and he frowned.

It is necessary to maintain limited traffic capacity on the city wall at all times. The traffic capacity determines whether the support is timely.

Wen'an County is just a small city. If it were a big city, five or six rows of fighting men could stand in front, while leaving a not-narrow road behind.

But the key to a blocked road is not the width of the road, but the scheduling.

People who want to go down to the city and people who want to go up the city bump into each other. If one party wants to go forward, the other party also wants to go forward. Who should go first?

Li Mengxi discovered a small but serious problem.

Everyone in the rebel army had no idea whether to go left or right.

As long as you develop this awareness, you will definitely not block the road head on.

There is a saying that the material base determines the superstructure.

There was no rule about whether people in the Han Dynasty should walk left or right. Were the people in the Han Dynasty stupid? No.

The productivity is underdeveloped and the flow of people is not dense. Farmers go to work and there are only a few people on the road. It is not easy to follow which way? If you insist on walking left or right, isn't that stupid?

In fact, it was after cars became popular on a large scale that traffic rules began to be gradually established.

Traffic rules are very important. When defending a city, if you have the awareness to keep to the right, you don't need to train specifically. If the two teams collide, each will go to the right, and they will naturally stagger and flow unimpeded.

When marching, the front army retreats, and the center army is on top. The center army is moving to the right. If the front army withdraws, it can withdraw directly.

Otherwise, military orders would have to be issued from level to level, using military orders to order the central army to move to the right, which would waste a lot of time.

Soldiers are expensive and fast, and every step is a little faster. The accumulated advantages will be a huge advantage.

This is the second fundamental and serious problem that Li Mengxi discovered after two days of military training.

The previous one is that we don’t know how long the soldiers’ physical strength can last during a fierce battle, and they cannot arrange appropriate rotation times when defending a city.

Li Mengxi then gave serious instructions to the two teams and asked them to walk on the right hand.

"Do you know where the right hand is?" Li Mengxi asked hesitantly.

The soldiers raised their hands one after another.

Li Mengxi looked carefully and no one raised the wrong hand.

What idiot said that the ancients did not distinguish between left and right? We are a civilized country, right?

It is estimated that only black Africans are indifferent to left and right.

"Okay, stay on the right side for a while, do you understand?" Li Mengxi instructed.

"If we all go to the right, won't we collide with each other?" The clever young man expressed his doubt.

Li Mengxi smiled and did not explain, "You can't hit it, you will know after trying it."

The village heroes followed Li Mengxi's order and kept to the right. Then they bumped into each other head-on. The road was too narrow.

Although people from the upper and lower towns still squeezed each other to pass, the speed was several times faster than the first time.

It was just a matter of coordination, the road was still as narrow as ever, and the soldiers were still poorly trained soldiers. They only stipulated that they should keep to the right, and the traffic became much smoother.

Li Mengxi nodded with satisfaction.

There is still a slight problem. Although the entire army requires walking on the right, it can improve the traffic efficiency in all aspects.

But as far as defending the city is concerned, for example, in a small town like Wen'an County, the road is extremely narrow. Even if you keep to the right, if the two teams going up and down collide, it will still be blocked.

This requires formulating rules and regulations to stipulate which team should be allowed to go first and which team should give way when two teams meet.

Li Mengxi thinks it should be, let the superiors give way.

If people going down town meet people going up town, they should get out of the way and let people going up town go first.

If you analyze the different situations above and below, you will understand why.

Those who were preparing to go down to the city were no more than civilians who had delivered arrows, frontline generals who were preparing to go down after inspecting the city, or wounded soldiers who were being carried, or strong men who had poured out the gold juice and carried down the empty barrels.

Brave.

The people who went up to the city were probably sending arrows to the city, transporting gold juice to the city, and going to reinforce the reinforcements somewhere.

The priorities were compared at a glance.

Most of the time people in the city are in a hurry, while most of the time people in the city are in a hurry.

Therefore, the inferior should give way to the superior.

The reason for guarding the city is not that there are many people, but that there is no chaos. Gold juice, hot oil and other things are being pushed around. If there is a slight chaos, someone accidentally touches it, and the hot oil sizzles and burns a group of people. The gain outweighs the loss.

At this point in the deduction of the city defense strategy, Li Mengxi had no more questions, and he stretched himself hard.

In broad daylight, he felt very sleepy, his back ached, and he couldn't help but beat his shoulders.

After the battle was over, Li Mengxi was even more tired than during the war.

The tactics are becoming more mature.

All that remains is to prepare the wheels, flags, and drive the new military laws into the hearts of the soldiers.

This day passed quickly.

In the evening, from the top of the city tower, you can see the clouds in the sky looking like fire.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The generals Liu Bei and Li Mengxi summarized what they learned in the day.

"Erxi, after two days of training, have you mastered the tactics of defending the city?" Liu Bei put his fists behind his back and lightly beat his shoulders. He had an iron-clad body and felt tired.

"Well, I have become proficient in city defense tactics." Li Mengxi nodded.

Then, I quietly looked at the clouds in a daze, killing the last bit of time before night in a leisurely manner.

It's just military training. It's not like running up and down like ordinary soldiers. The physical fatigue is nothing, but the mental fatigue makes people physically and mentally exhausted.

In just two days, without a single battle, Li Mengxi learned the art of defending the city from scratch. No one taught him, he just figured it out on his own.

After being able to defend the city, Li Mengxi felt full of accomplishment.

"No!" Li Mengxi was fine, but his eyes suddenly widened.

Liu Bei heard this and asked what was going on.

"It suddenly occurred to me that if the city is defended, there will be many people in the city. The enemy army will besiege the city for a hundred days and will not retreat. The army may not be short of food. But if the people run out of food, wouldn't they be panicked?

That is to say, people's hearts are unstable, and lawless people will take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos, and the fighting outside the city will shake the sky. If there is a slight chaos in the city, everyone will be in chaos, and it will instantly become an uncontrollable situation.

Occasionally, enemy forces would take advantage of the situation to fan the flames and spread rumors, making the situation even more confusing.

At that time, even if the city is intact, if there is chaos in the city, the city will not be saved."

"Moreover, if there is no water source in the city and the water source outside the city is cut off by the enemy, our army will be in danger."

"Killing together creates a pile of dead bodies. If not handled properly, plague can easily occur.

When the plague breaks out, a large number of troops will be stationed in the city, and everyone will die in an instant."

"What if the enemy forces dig up the soil and attack the city through a secret tunnel?"

"Don't stay in defense of the city.

Or we can take advantage of the enemy's formation before the city is established, and our army can go out of the city and kill them by surprise.

However, when the light army leaves the city, what kind of troops should be used? Cavalry? Foot?

What tactics should be used?

If the attack against the enemy fails, how should we retreat?"

"If our army defends the city, we can also send troops out of the city to make a surprise attack, burn the enemy's siege equipment, and delay the enemy's siege rhythm so that I can repair it calmly."

"If our army has sufficient strength, we can make our troops camp under the city. Someone heard that this is a cornering situation. Is this strategy applicable?"

Then, what kind of formation should be used to attack the city? Should we use spearmen? Shield soldiers? Crossbows? Attack? Or resist horses?

Which one is optimal?”

"These are the key methods to defend the city, but none of us know them."

"Xuan Degong asked me if the method of defending the city is perfect?" Li Mengxi looked back at the empty city and shook his head, "No! If Fei knows the method of defending the city, someone knows how to defend the city wall.
