July 19, 290 in the imperial calendar of the British Empire.

In the morning, 7:18.

Within the territory of the Lorraine Empire, on the South Bank of the shunau River, Lyle city.

The first beam of sunshine of the new day was thrown down from the sky.

Throw it on ou Ren, who is standing on the north wall of Lyle city and hasn't slept all night.

Ou Ren turned his bloodshot eyes and looked at the sun rising from the horizon in the East.

The sunlight sprinkled on him brought a trace of warmth to Ou Ren, making his exploding head more comfortable.

Of course, if the more than 400 horns named "wuwuwu" still outside the city could stop, his head would be more comfortable.

After seeing the more than 400 light cavalry "whistling" with the charge outside his Lyle city late last night, Ou Ren immediately understood what the commander of the British Army outside the city was going to do!

The commander of the britannian army outside the city plans to use "tired enemy tactics" against him!

Make a loud noise to disgust him and all the defenders in Lyle! They can't have a good rest, kill their fighting spirit and torture their spirit. When their fighting spirit and spirit are almost destroyed and tortured, they can launch a general attack and capture Lyle City, which is already very weak.

At the same time, Oren also understood why the British Army's barracks were so far away from Lyle last night.

——Because I'm not afraid of being disturbed by my own noise!

I have to say that this "tired enemy tactics" is really suitable for dealing with small cities such as Lyle city.

Lyle city is just a city too small to be small. At its peak, the population was only more than 20000, so the area of Lyle city is also very small.

It is also because of its small size that the more than 400 charge trumpets of the britannian army can easily cover the whole Lyle City, so that everyone in Lyle city can be tortured by the charge trumpets.

If it is a city with a slightly larger area, this "enemy fatigue tactics" will not work at all, because if the area of the city is too large, the noise will not cover the whole city at all, so it will not have the effect of disturbing the enemy.

At the thought of this, Ou Ren couldn't help scolding.

Ou Ren dares to conclude that the commander of the britannian army outside the city must have done his homework and carefully studied the specific situation of Lyle City, so he can formulate this disgusting "enemy fatigue tactics" according to the small area of Lyle city.

Thanks to this disgusting and hungry "tired enemy tactics", almost all generals, soldiers and citizens in the city, including Ou Ren, couldn't sleep after more than 400 britannian light cavalry outside the city began to blow the charge horn last night.

OuRen and his generals had thought about a lot of ways last night about how to deal with the britannian army outside the city.

First of all, it is useless to stand on the wall and shoot them with a crossbow.

Because the light cavalry of the Britannia army outside the city are outside the range of arrows. No matter how they shoot, they can only shoot at the feet of others at most.

Since there was no archery standing on the wall, a general proposed to quietly send an army out of the city last night to get rid of the britannian light cavalry outside the city!

This plan was rejected by Ou Ren without even being tested.

Because his 5000 troops have no cavalry at all.

Ou Ren's task is just to hold lair city and guard this baggage transfer station.

Because the task is only to defend the city, the 5000 people allocated to Ou Ren by Luo Xie during the army allocation are basically all infantry and no cavalry.

In the absence of cavalry, it is basically impossible to use infantry to pursue and kill the enemy's light cavalry.

The high mobility of the light cavalry enables the light cavalry to slip the infantry around like a dog.

The infantry had not met the enemy's light cavalry, and the enemy's light cavalry had already run away.

Therefore, in the absence of cavalry, it is certainly useless to send troops out of the city to kill the enemy. It is certain that they can't even touch a hair of the enemy.

"Alas..."

Ou Ren, who seldom sighs, looked tired and sighed, and then said:

"It's difficult... It's no good sending people for help, shooting those damn light cavalry, or sending people to attack those damn light cavalry... The situation is much more serious than I thought..."

While Ou Ren was bitter and complaining about the bad situation, a general standing behind Ou Ren on the north city wall said in a deep voice:

"General Ou Ren, in that case, we might as well gather the whole army and fight to the death with the British army in the field! The troops of our two armies are equal. Even if it is a decisive battle in the field, our army will not fall into the disadvantage! "

"A decisive battle in the wild..." Ou Ren smiled twice. "That's not necessary. I won't risk going out of the city to fight with the enemy unless I have to. We just need to stick to Lyle as usual and wait quietly for reinforcements. "

"General Ou Ren?" The general said in surprise, "have you successfully conveyed the message of 'asking for help' to the rest of the troops?"

"That's not true. The rest of the troops must not know that Lyle city has been attacked, but in a few days, it's not necessarily."

Speaking of this, orenton gave a moment, then continued to explain to the general:

"You should also know that our lair city is now a baggage transfer station to transport baggage to the North Bank of the shunau river?"

"I know!"

"Then you should also know that the position of the Eritrean German army is the closest to here? Lyle city is only 60 miles away from the position of the Eritrean German army. "

"Every five days, we will transport a new wave of baggage to the positions of the Eritrean and German forces responsible for defending the central area on the North Bank of the shunau river."

"The last time we delivered supplies to the Eritrean and German positions was two days ago, that is, July 17. In other words, according to the regulations, our next new wave of baggage must be delivered to the positions of the Eritrean and German army in the morning of July 22. "

"Three days later, in the morning of July 22, ed found that no new baggage had been delivered. What do you think he would think?"

Ou Ren's words woke up the general.

The general's eyes widened sharply and then shouted:

"General ERD will doubt whether something has happened to our Lyle city!"

"Well, that's right." Ou Ren smiled and nodded, "when three days later on the morning of July 22, ed found that no new baggage had been delivered to the position, he would doubt whether something had happened in Lyle City, so he sent someone to Lyle city to investigate the situation."

"The position of the Eritrean German army is 60 miles away from here. If you hurry up, you can start in the morning and reach our Lyle city in the afternoon."

"In other words, in the afternoon of July 22, the reconnaissance soldiers of the Eritrean and German army can know the current situation of our Lyle City, and then rush back to inform the Eritrean and German army."

"If you leave from Lyle city in the afternoon to return to the position of the Eritrean German army, you will probably not return to the position of the Eritrean German army until late at night."

"By that time, it will be too late. ED is unlikely to March late at night to rescue us."

"If ERD learned that Lyle was being attacked in the late night of July 22, he would probably start to enter the rescue in the early morning of July 23."

"According to the road conditions here, it will take almost a day for an army of more than 10000 people to travel here."

"In other words, if ERD starts to march in the early morning of July 23, he will not be able to arrive here until July 24 to rescue Lyle city."

"In a word, we just need to continue to defend Lyle city. As long as we keep it until the morning of July 24, Ed's reinforcements will arrive."

After being woken up by the horn of the British Army late last night, Ou Ren began to think about how to solve the light cavalry outside the city who harassed them madly.

After finding that he had nothing to do with the light cavalry, Ou Ren stopped thinking about how to solve the light cavalry, but how to defeat all the britannians outside the city!

After carefully thinking about the current situation of their Lyle City, Ou Ren found that he could continue to defend Lyle City, without considering how to defeat the British Army outside the city, or how to send someone to report to other forces for support.

This characteristic of his "baggage transfer station" in Lyle city can help him convey the information that "something's wrong in Lyle city" to other forces!

When three days later, that is, on the morning of July 22, ed found that the baggage had not been delivered as scheduled, he would send someone to check the situation of Lyle City, and then he could know that Lyle city was being attacked by the enemy! Then naturally, reinforcements will be sent to rescue!

Therefore, Lyle city's current strategy against the enemy, as long as it remains the same! Continue to defend Lyle city until the morning of July 24, and the reinforcements will arrive!

After explaining to the generals behind him why he chose to continue to defend Lyle City, Ou Ren turned back with a bitter face and looked at the light cavalry who were still frantically blowing the charge outside the north city wall.

"So now we just have to endure these annoying bugles. As long as we endure them until the morning of July 24, we can be saved."

"In fact, I'm not afraid of these noises. Although they will make us unable to sleep, we'll be fine when we get used to it."

"What I fear most now is that the commander of this British army will not only make noise to harass us, but also make other tricks to torture us..."

After that, the bitterness on ou Ren's face became more and more intense..
