Chapter 380 The Black Mountain Army Has Arrived

The afternoon sun did not come as expected. It was still snowy today. The snow outside Huaxia City was as thick as its calves. It had been a few days since the heavy snow had fallen. Guo Jia stood on the city tower at the south gate, holding a telescope and looking into the distance. There was no abnormal movement at this time, but his expression was very heavy. It seemed that no good things happened.

He put down his telescope and said to the guards: "Do you notify the commander Huaxia City in trouble and let him return early?"

The guard immediately said: "It has been notified, but it has not received any response."

Telegrams need to be received by someone. If no one receives them, the signal will disappear.

Why Guo Jia was so anxious was because in the morning, Huaxia City received news that the Black Mountain Army had set up camp fifty miles away, saying that Zhang Yan was in charge and brought an army of 300,000 to Huaxia City.

"Next, I think the commander should be in the marching now and there is no time to receive telegrams."

This is indeed the case in reality. Only when Qing Cang's army stops will the intelligence personnel receive the telegrams, and it is most likely that it will be evening. It is normal that you cannot receive the telegrams.

But when something urgent happened, Guo Jia had to ask the intelligence personnel to use intensive reports and perhaps contact Qing Cang. Now he had to pray that Qing Cang would stop and receive the telegram.

"Yes! Let's go and send it."

Guo Jia was also very helpless about this situation. He murmured: "I hope the commander can arrive at Huaxia City before the arrival of the Han army and the Qiang and Hu army. In that case, our Huaxia City will not be in danger."

"Staff General Guo, news is coming again."

At this time, an intelligence officer came from the side, holding a note in her hand, which was the latest telegram message.

Guo Jia opened his eyes and his brows frowned even tighter.

The content written above is obviously very unfavorable to Huaxia City. There is no general in the entire Huaxia City now, and only Guo Jia can take charge of defense. Just defense, attack is really unsustainable. He is good at making plans, and Qing Cang will still have to arrange troops. If Zhao Zilong or Zhang Liao are there now, the situation might be better.

His performance made more than ten people present nervous. Finally, someone couldn't help asking: "Staff Officer Guo, what are you talking about?"

Guo Jiacai said: "The 200,000 troops of Qiang and Hu are coming from the West. At the same time, Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song each brought 100,000 troops from the east. They will also arrive in less than a day. I hope the commander can arrive at Huaxia City before tomorrow, otherwise whether my Huaxia City can last for one day is still a matter of two things."

The people below exclaimed. "What! They were two days faster than expected!"

"No, didn't you say nine days? It's only six days have passed. Is our intelligence wrong?"

"No, it's not that our intelligence is wrong, it's that the enemy is too cunning."

People began to discuss it in a slight manner, and they expressed surprise.

Someone asked: "It is obvious that they have to fight to come so quickly. Staff Guo, what should we do?"

Guo Jia said: "Defense! We can't use attack methods only if we have defense."

A clever woman is hard to cook without rice. He does not have a powerful general, only a large number of soldiers, and only one defense can be used to go.

Everyone was in an uproar.

"this……"

Since all the enemies have come, he cannot sit and wait for death, so Guo Jia said: "Give me instructions to divide the catapults and crossbows that I have built in these days into four city gates, and prepare for the stones."

Now he can do probably only this. He hopes to keep the enemy outside with the good performance of the catapult and cannot attack. As for how many waves of attacks can withstand, that's another matter.

He suddenly remembered something again and said, "By the way, I'll send another telegram back and said, I guess Dong Zhuo will attack the East Gate, with only 100,000 troops. I hope to give the commander some help."

His intention was very obvious, that is, if the Chinese army outside came back and went straight to the east gate and left Dong Zhuo with only 100,000 troops, they would defeat each one, and perhaps Huaxia City would really survive.

"Also, the matter about the commander not being in the city must not be spread."

If the Black Mountain Army were allowed to know about this, the consequences would be unimaginable. It is possible that they would attack directly instead of being camped fifty miles away.

As for why they were so far away, they were probably afraid that they would be blown up too close, so they had to stalk their soldiers fifty miles away.

This comes from the fear of Qing Cang, and Sun Qing is a good example.

The guards should have "Yes!" and then went down to arrange them.

Guo Jia arranged personnel affairs with Qing Cang's style. He arranged what everyone had to do in an orderly manner. He said, "Minister Wang!"

Wang Zongwei said: "Staff General Guo! I'm here!"

He asked: "How is the machine the commander asked to produce is now progressing?"

Wang Zongwei replied: "Now 50,000 people have been invested to produce large-scale weapons such as trench machines. It can produce 300 trench machines, 50 trench guns, 50 rushing cars, and 100 harvesters a day."

"That's great. I hope it can be more productive so that we can maintain firepower and make the enemy unable to get close to you."

"I hope so."

"Minister Yang."

Yang Zizong Ying: "In"

"From now on, you will be responsible for the sturdiness of all the city walls, repair what should be repaired, and repair what should be repaired."

"Yes, I'll deal with it now."

His arrangements are to prepare for the enemy. The so-called preparations for the future are nothing more than that.

After Yang Zizong left, Guo Jia said, "My eyes are a little tired. You can take a look at the situation around me for me!"

He put down his telescope, and as soon as he finished speaking, he entered the city tower and went to rest. He hadn't closed his eyes much these days. Now he is very important. He can be said to be the supreme commander of the entire Huaxia City. Of course, this is only when Qing Cang is not present.

Judging from the current information, the Black Mountain Army will not come to take the initiative to attack in a short period of time. They should wait until the other two sides arrive before launching the general attack, so he took the initiative to rest.

The entire Huaxia City has begun to take action. A large number of soldiers are busy with scattering machines and other equipment to the place behind the city gate, sending the crossbows to the city wall, and arranging the harvesters outside the moat.

Some people even came to the outside of the main city to petition after receiving the news, hoping to live with Huaxia City, and they also wanted to do something for Huaxia City.
