095 Status of the Acropolis
Gu Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the safe butler Zhang Ran, followed Zhang San to the main room of the inner courtyard, and met Tang, who was standing there anxiously waiting at the gate of the yard.
Tang saw Gu Yan walking behind Butler Zhang at a glance, and ran forward twice quickly, hugging Gu Yan into his arms.
"Yan'er, my daughter, you finally come back safely, and my mother is worried about it."
Gu Yan was hugged by Tang's arms, and her warm body made Gu Yan feel at ease. Thinking of Tang's fear of her for the past few days, his heart felt soft.
"Mom, I'm fine, are you okay?"
Tang stretched his hands and wiped his tears, "Mom is okay, where are you? You are not injured, are you?"
Tang hurriedly pushed Gu Yan away from her body, touched her with her hands, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was not injured.
"Huh, it's good that you're fine, otherwise you'll have to divorce your father. Your father is really, why do so many people have to let you go? How dangerous is it for you, a little girl, to run out!"
Gu Yan smiled and explained, "I have to go there, my father can't stop him."
Tang glared at Gu Yan and pulled Gu Yan into the room.
"You don't have to say good things to your father. It's his fault that he didn't stop you. You are only twelve years old and are not yet thirteen. Why can you feel at ease to let you go out alone?"
Gu Yan no longer explained and asked about the situation in the Acropolis.
Tang sighed, "After you left, the Ye barbarian army launched an attack. This time they seemed to have made up their minds to take down all the border cities, and the attack was very fast. Your father sent General Huang and General Li to guard the city together to deal with the 100,000 troops outside the city. He and General Lu faced the 300,000 troops left on the other side.
The number of troops of the two soldiers was too different, and the number of deaths rose sharply, especially the Acropolis. The barbarians who attacked the city found huge rocks and tinder oil, and all threw them into the city. The people in the city were killed and injured, and the miserables were everywhere. You can see that most of the houses in the city were destroyed, and half of the people were killed.
Your father's place is not easy. Without food and grass, the soldiers will have to fight on hungry. It is not enough for his mother to take away all the food from the two shops.
Fortunately, the people in the city also saw the facts clearly, took out all the food at home, and gathered them together, and took the lead to collect porridge every day, which could fill the stomach and prevent the soldiers from going to the city wall to fight on hungry."
Gu Yan learned about the current situation in the city and nodded secretly.
The people of the border city and the acropolis were still forced to this extent. In order to survive, they had to take out all the food in their families and distribute it to the soldiers of the Great Wei, so that they could defend the two cities and prevent the barbarian army from invading.
"It is not a solution to continue like this. Without food and grass, you will sooner or later break the city. If the 100,000 barbarians outside the Acropolis were not fighting alone, I would be blocked by our dynasty in the Great Wei Dynasty and would not dare to delay time. They could just siege the city without siege."
Gu Yan was stunned by Tang's words, "Siege? Yes, there is not much time, they can only attack the city as soon as possible."
Gu Yan didn't stay at home for a long time before leaving the city to find Gu An.
Gu An was very happy to see Gu Yan.
"Is things done?"
Gu Yan had a blank expression on her face, "Yes, it's all done."
Gu An has long been used to Gu Yan's expression and doesn't care.
"Is your mother okay? I haven't seen her some days."
"Mom is okay."
"It's good that your mother is fine. A few days ago, the Barbarian Army attacked the city and ruined the Acropolis into that shape, but I was scared that something happened to your mother."
"Mom won't have any trouble, but Dad, how can I fight this battle?"
Gu An frowned and pinched his nose and said helplessly: "Now there is not enough food and grass, and the troops are insufficient. My father has no good idea. He can only wait first and see when the court will send troops to the court. If he has not sent troops to another month, he has to think of another solution."
When Gu Yan heard Gu An say that there was no good idea, he frowned.
With so many soldiers in the city and so many people, they consume a lot of food every day, and there are probably not many medicinal materials used by the wounded soldiers now. Although I brought some back from the city this time, compared with the number of wounded soldiers, it is a drop in the bucket.
The walls of the Acropolis were not built firmly, and there were not many military facilities inside. The barbarians repeatedly attacked the city and probably wouldn't be able to defend them.
Gu Yan didn't say what she was worried about. She believed that Gu An could think of what she could think of, and had already thought of a solution.
Sure enough, Gu An spoke.
"General Huang and I have discussed it. The Acropolis may not be able to defend it. Instead of doing this, it is better to move all of us into the border city. The border city is the strongest defense among the three cities and is also the top priority. It is undoubtedly difficult for the barbarian army to win this place than the Acropolis and Yicheng. Retreat to the border city is the best way at present."
Gu Yan nodded, "What do dad want me to do?"
Gu An smiled mysteriously, "Wait, you're indispensable."
Three days later, under the arrangement of Li Tiancheng, the people of the Acropolis began to evacuate to the border town in an orderly manner. First, the wounded, then the elderly, young and old, women and children, and then the strong and strong young men. Finally, at night, half of the remaining 80,000 soldiers were left, and the others evacuated the Acropolis in the dark.
Immediately afterwards, as soon as the Mid-Shi Shi arrived, the barbarian army launched an attack on the acropolis and border towns at the same time.
The Barbarian Army has done this every day for these days. The soldiers and people of the Great Wei have long been accustomed to it, and they also know that the Barbarian Army is consuming their power.
The barbarian army had 100,000 more people than the Great Wei. Although they were sieges and they did not have the worries, they could still make up for their shortcomings with their strong bodies and strong attack power. In addition, Hurzatai asked the barbarian army to rest and attack in batches, so the barbarian army did not consume much.
Gu An is not a fool either. After fighting for so many days, he knew what the barbarian army was doing, so he was divided into two teams, and the two teams were rotating to defend the city.
Tonight, Lu Yu should have guarded the city, but Gu An also walked up to the city wall and looked at the guard.
"Sir, the Acropolis has been arranged, so don't worry."
Gu An sighed, his eyes never left the direction of the Acropolis. "It is impossible to conclude that everything will go smoothly until the end. It is unknown who wins and who loses."
Lu Yu snorted disdainfully, "Sir, don't worry, those barbarians still need to worry so much? The eldest nieces and nephews will definitely complete the task. Don't forget that they have turned the barbarians back into pieces."
Gu An did not answer the conversation and stared at the Acropolis with concentration.
Soon a roar came from the Acropolis, and then the excited shouts of the barbarian army came over, and then there were fighting and howling pain. At the time of Yin, a fire light reflected half of the sky red, bringing a different color to the dark night before dawn.
