Of course, there is no story, just a simple trench! There is a trench inside and outside the sheep and horse wall of Nanyang City! Double-layered, this is the core idea of Chen Gui's city defense construction. If there is one more layer, there will be no less, and he didn't expect it to be a secret weapon.
In fact, the inner moat behind the Sheep and Horse Wall was obviously dug temporarily. It was not as deep or wide as the outside one, and the ice at the bottom of the moat was not as spectacular as outside. It was just enough to cause great trouble to the Jin people who were attacking the city!
The outer trench is a genuine moat.
As for the moat, they just filled it up. Tens of thousands of people spent three or four days filling it up. With the thick ice finally forming today, the Jin army finally turned over, but they fell into another trench covered with ice ridges!
What to do then?
In fact, as soon as Wanyan Guoying turned over and slid to the bottom of the ditch, he was thinking about this simple question, and he quickly came up with the most direct answer - crawl back.
He just needs to climb back over the thick sheep-horse wall. Anyway, as long as there are no dozen enemy-killing bows or divine arm bows aimed at him, the double layer of iron armor on his body is enough to deal with it.
However, after finally climbing up the inner trench, which was already littered with corpses, under a hail of arrows, and reaching the narrow bottom of the wall, Wanyan Guoying was shocked to find that the wall had actually grown taller?!
This sheep-horse wall that he could easily jump over from the outside, with several corpses stepped on from the inside, was so far away that he could not even reach the place where he could exert force?
Is it haunted?
“It actually has such a miraculous effect!”
Unlike the angry and annoyed look in the morning, seeing hundreds of elite Jin soldiers fall into this trap, although he didn't know there was a big fish in it, Lu Yihao, who had been holding back for the whole morning, was in a rare good mood. Even the posture of standing up and stroking his beard while leaning forward to look around was much smoother. "Is this method of low inside and high outside also what Minister Chen thought of?"
"No." Yan Xiaozhong blurted out while standing on his tiptoes on a chair. "The inner moat is something that Minister Chen has always liked, but the different heights of the inner and outer walls of the sheep and horse wall are something he could not have imagined."
"Whoever it is, he deserves a reward!" Lu Shuxiang waved his hand generously. "Although it is just a trivial skill, not worth mentioning, it has shown a bit of cunning. Since this is the first victory in the battle, it deserves a big reward."
The dark and thin Yan Xiaozhong looked at Lu Yihao who stood up from his chair, then looked at the person beside him, but simply saluted on the chair and said bluntly: "Let Mr. Lu know that I participated in the repair of the city defense and know a lot about it. It was the person beside you who got this bit of cunning."
Everyone looked at each other in astonishment, and instinctively looked at Lu Yihao. Even Lu Yihao instinctively looked at the person beside him. However, when everyone looked together, they found that to the left of Lu Yihao was another Prime Minister Lu who was peeking around and had not spoken a word in recent days. They shook their heads and looked to the right of Prime Minister Lu Shu... and over there was Emperor Zhao who was still keeping silent and turning a deaf ear to the matter.
