    Under the urging of Lothair and others, tens of thousands of German soldiers marched hard in the raging cold wind. What Lothair didn't know was that the First Army Camp had already set up camp to avoid the cold wind.  The two commanders found a village and the entire army was stationed there, waiting for the cold wind to subside before continuing the march.  The Germans are anxious, but they are not impatient. Anyway, they have never thought about entering Vilnius. Everything is just a cover.  In the city of Vilnius, Yelusha looked at his several commanders with a stern expression. The order from the base camp had been issued. The troops stationed in the city must not only use the city defense to kill the German army to the greatest extent, but also find a way to evacuate safely. This task is really too difficult.  .  There is no problem in resisting the German attack, but it is not easy to evacuate the city of Vilnius safely without the help of other large armies.  This time the Germans have assembled a heavy army and are bound to win Vilnius, so they cannot give them too many chances.  "Everyone has heard the order from the base camp. We must not only resist the German attack on our own, but also find a way to withdraw. Before the Germans come, let's talk about our own methods." Such an arduous task  , Yelusha couldn't think of any good way. The only thing he could pray for now was that it wouldn't snow in these two days. Once it snowed, he would be trapped in the city and die.  Several commanders looked solemn and exchanged words in low voices. Sieg said with some distress, "General, it's okay to fight the Germans, but it's really not easy for us to evacuate safely. After thinking about it, General  There is only one chance. When the First Military Camp approaches the city of Vilnius, it will definitely cause strong psychological pressure on the Germans. We know that the First Military Camp is not coming for Vilnius, but the Germans don't know.  After some planning, let the Germans believe that the First Military Camp is determined to enter the city to help. In that case, the Germans will definitely divide their troops to block the First Military Camp. At this time, there will definitely be loopholes in the camp outside the city. We can work hard and take advantage of this  As soon as Sieg finished speaking, Nokikafu, who was sitting next to Ren Feo, shook his head, "This is really inappropriate. Once we take the opportunity to break out, the army that went to stop the first military camp will find out immediately.  When the time comes, they will directly block us. This plan is very inappropriate and we need to be cautious."  Nokikaf was polite enough. Sieg's method was not only inappropriate, it was full of loopholes. If Sieg's method were to be used, many brothers would die.  Sieg was very unhappy, but couldn't refute, so he could only say gloomily, "This won't work, that won't work either. You should tell me what to do. You can't stay here forever, right?" Sieg originally wanted to make things difficult for Noki.  Kafu never thought that Nokia Kafu had some ideas. He said slowly, "General, actually, the general has a plan that we can try. When the Germans attack the city, we will try to ensure that the opponent's uniforms and armor are intact.  No problem, and then find an opportunity to fish in troubled waters. As long as the Germans are messed up, we have a lot of chances to rush out." "How to find opportunities, we have to act according to the situation. After thinking about it, it seems that Nokikafu is the only one.  is the most reliable method.  There was not much time left for Yelusha and others to prepare. Just three days later, the strong wind outside was much weaker, and Lothair led tens of thousands of German soldiers under his command to appear near Vilnius.  It was obviously unrealistic for more than 30,000 troops to rush to the city of Vilnius. After some discussion, Lothair divided his troops into three parts. The first group of 5,000 people set up an ambush in the west to prevent the defenders in the city from bypassing the city.  The city fled, the other group surrounded Vilnius, and the last group stationed in the east to resist the reinforcements of the First Army Camp.  Looking at the towering city wall in front of them, the Germans all felt an inexplicable pressure. Attacking Vilnius might not end well. Lothair frowned, not knowing how to deal with the situation in front of him.  Before coming here, I didn¡¯t expect that Vilnius was so easy to defend and difficult to attack.  The battlements are mainly made of bluestone, and depending on the situation, they have been raised a lot. The troops in the city have not been idle during this time. After the reinforcement, the city wall is about four feet high. There are shooting holes everywhere behind the battlements. The siege prepared before  Most of the equipment was prepared according to the three feet. Now most of them are not used, so we can only seize the time to modify them.  The suppression of bows and arrows on the city was also a big problem. After observing for a long time, Lothair decided not to attack the city for the time being. "Lord Sugus, please lead the troops to garrison at Foyan Ridge in the east. As long as the people from the First Military Camp arrive,  , ambush them on the spot, and must not let them join the Vilnius garrison." Sugus's eyes changed, and he asked with some doubts, "Your Majesty Lothair, aren't we going to attack the city today?" Sugus is?  We don¡¯t want to delay it too long. People from the First Military Battalion may arrive at any time. Time is everything to the Germans.  "We can't attack the city today. You can take a closer look at the situation on the city. There is thick smoke and fire. The enemy troops are hiding behind the battlements. They probably prepared a lot of logs, kerosene, and arrows. Our ladder is only three feet tall.  A little more, and the city cannot be reached. In this case, a strong attack will definitely be fruitless. It is better not to cause unnecessary casualties. As long as Foyan Ridge is defended, Vilnius City will not be able to escape." Lothair.The telescope was handed to Sugus. Sugus was no stranger to telescopes. The telescope was a sharp tool for Easterners to observe the battlefield. It was not complicated to make. The Holy Empire also made some imitations. Through the telescope, the people at the top of the city could see the telescope.  The scene was clearly visible, and Su Gesi's expression slowly became serious.  As Lothair said, there were not many guards at the top of the city. They all huddled behind the battlements and seemed very confident in defending the city.  Lothair and Suggs were both wrong about one thing. What was burning on the city was not kerosene but boiling water.  After receiving Lothair's order, the Germans slowly retreated and camped five miles outside the city. They were afraid of being raided in the middle of the night, so they simply moved the camp farther away.  Yelusha didn't expect the Germans to be so cautious. Through the telescope, he could only see vague shadows. Damn it. Is it too cautious to camp so far away?  After preparing so many things to defend the city, none of them were used. Jinokkafu's face turned dark. He clenched his fist and punched it out, but it hit the air. "General, are these Germans scared?"  Are you brave enough to take the initiative to evacuate? What about moving the things we prepared?" Yelusha smoothed the messy hair on his forehead. He didn't know when it was stained with moisture, and it had turned into ice slag. He looked at the things in his hands.  Bing Zazizi suddenly came up with an idea, "lower the temperature of the water, pour it all on the city wall, and have people carry water up there, preferably cold water. Hey, I didn't expect the weather in Vilnius to be so cold. Let's freeze the city wall tonight.  It became an ice wall." Nokikafu and others all looked surprised. In fact, this idea is not clever. Anyone can figure it out as long as they pay attention.  If the city wall becomes slippery, it will be a huge disaster for the attacking party.  At night, although the Germans sent scouts to keep an eye on the movements on the city walls, they were wary of sneak attacks in the city and did not care about the movements on the city walls.  The weather was cold and dark, and it was difficult to see what was happening at the top of the city.  Taking advantage of the darkness, the city's defenders turned on their power, and Yelusea mobilized the soldiers and civilians in the city. Buckets of water were sent up and poured on the city wall. In order to surprise the Germans, Yelusea and his men worked for most of the night.  The next day, just after dawn, Lothair was woken up by his own bodyguards, who all had pale faces, as if they had just been pulled out of the room.  It was so early in the morning that I was in a bad mood. If I hadn't heard that it was quiet outside, I would have thought that the Vilnius garrison was coming. "Look at the panicked look on each of you. How do you behave? Tell me,  "What happened?" "Your Majesty, you'd better go and see for yourself." The soldier swallowed his saliva and wrapped the prepared fur around Lothair.  Lothair was very puzzled and curious. He washed his face hastily and followed the soldiers outside the camp.  At this time, there were more than a dozen people standing on the high slope outside the camp. Sugus, Baisier and others were among them. Seeing Lothair's arrival, everyone had a wry smile on their faces, took the telescope and headed towards Vilnius City.  After just one glance, Lothair was furious.  At this time, the warm sun was rising, and the sunlight shone on the city wall of Vilnius, emitting a faint light. Overnight, the city wall seemed to be covered with a layer of glazed ice crystals. Lothair knew this scene too well. The failure of the Eastern Expedition came from Phoenix City.  When I escaped back, I often saw this scene.  It was a thick layer of ice that wrapped the city wall. The originally neat city wall had an obvious protrusion. In a short period of time, an ice wall suddenly appeared in front of them.  Lothair's lips were trembling, how could he forget this?  The weather in the Istrian highlands is such that even peeing at night can freeze into a stick. The Vilnius garrison froze the city wall into this horrible shape, and the difficulty of attacking the city suddenly increased. "Damn Slavs,"  It must be their bad idea. "If Nokikafu could hear it, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged. This idea was really the idea that Yelusha himself came up with.  Besides, when two armies confront each other, their goal is to win. Who cares whether they lose or not?  Baisier gritted his teeth, frowned and spat viciously, "Your Majesty Lothair, no matter what, we have to attack the city. Why not wait a moment and launch a fierce attack when the ice and snow melt in the afternoon? It's taking too long.  , It¡¯s not good for us.¡± Lothair could only nod in agreement, but even so, a lot of time has been lost. There is nothing to do for two hours from chen hour to noon. Climbing by force is not impossible, but it comes at a cost.  It would be huge. Even if the Germanic warriors were not afraid of death, they could not make fearless sacrifices.  Lothair was cheated and his mood naturally couldn't get better. He had all the prepared trebuchets brought up and fired at the top of the city.  The Dingguo army guarding the city was well prepared. When they saw the trebuchets all behind the battlements, the trebuchets had not stopped since then. Behind the battlements, they saw a lot of messy things flying over their heads, such as dirt and rubbish.  , smelly cow dung, broken stones, in short, everything that was useful around Vilnius was thrown up.  Lothair didn't know whose bad idea he listened to, so he boiled the cow dung in hot water, packed it in clay pots, and sent it all to the top of the city. This time, the defenders finally couldn't stand it anymore.  Nokia Kraft and Ren Phen are hiding in the forestIn the command post that was built, some people were chatting, "Nokikafu, when do you think the trebuchet outside will be finished? The Germans are so stimulated that they simply don't care about the cost."  Kikafu looked relaxed and smiled carelessly, "No matter what we do, the more the Germans are like this, the more it proves that they are helpless against us. This is a sign of desperation. But generally after noon, the ice layer  It will melt, and the Germans will probably take the opportunity to attack."  Before he finished speaking, he heard a crackling sound, and at the same time, there were also curses coming from the top of the city.  The trebuchet has been going crazy for so long, but he has never heard the soldiers curse. Ren Feol raised his eyebrows, curious, and wanted to go out to see what was going on. Before he could stand up, there was a bang, and something fell on the command post.  On the roof, some dark liquid soon flowed down the cracks.  Nokikafu was standing under the gap, and all the liquid fell on his head. Suddenly a stinking smell filled the entire command post. Nokikafu's throat moved, and he lay on the barrel next to him and vomited wildly.  It's actually cow dung soup. I think Nokikafu has been fighting for so many years, but now he doesn't have cow dung soup to pour on his head.  Ren Feol¡¯s face didn¡¯t look good either. Although he was not as unlucky as Nokikafu, he still had a lot of shit on him. He finally understood why the brothers outside were yelling at each other. It was all because of the shit.  Holding back his nausea, Ren Feol pinched his nose and walked out of the command post. He originally wanted to breathe fresh air, but the smell outside was more pungent than the smell of the command post. The top of the city was covered in black and white, like a giant giant.  cesspit.  Many soldiers were already in tears because of the pungent smell. Some people couldn't bear the blow. They stuck out their heads and yelled at the city, "You son of a bitch, you are a coward. You have the ability to attack the city. Grandpa is naked and waiting."  "You guys." While scolding, this Slavic man actually took off his coat and hit his chest with his big fist, making a thumping sound. Three black lines hung on Ren Feol's forehead. If he continues to be tortured like this, the soldiers will still  Don't you think you'll be driven crazy?  At this time, Nokikafu also vomited his stomach. He climbed out of the command post with a sallow face. As soon as he left the room, he lay on the ground and said viciously, "General Ren, we must fight back and pull up the prepared crossbows."  , destroyed those trebuchets. The Germans are the most alert at this time. We must teach them a lesson. "Those crossbows were used to deal with ramming trees. It is really a waste to use them now to deal with trebuchets."  But other than this method, Ren Feol couldn't think of any good countermeasures in a short period of time, so he had to make a grimace and let someone pull the crossbow.  The chariot crossbows have been prepared under the city. Five people can move one chariot crossbow over. Everyone gathered firewood and the flames were high. Soon a dozen chariot crossbows were assembled. Ren Feol pulled out his saber and shouted with a cold face, "Aim  The trebuchets under the city destroyed these evil-doing things. "The trebuchets are powerful at throwing heavy objects, but their range has never been as good as the trebuchets. What's more, the trebuchets are higher up and have a longer range, which can completely cover the trebuchets."  A crossbow arrow suddenly shot out, only to see a cold light piercing the sky in the sun. Gunpowder was tied to the crossbow arrow, and the fuse was burning. It accurately hit a trebuchet. The arrow pierced into the trebuchet. With a bang, this  Two evil trebuchets were blown to pieces.  The busy Germans around were so shocked by this scene that it took them a long time to react.  Another crossbow arrow came over, this time it missed the trebuchet, but nailed a German soldier to the ground.  The crossbow arrow was fast and powerful, directly piercing the Germanic soldier's neck. The crossbow arrow penetrated the neck, and the trend continued unabated, sinking into the ground.  The surrounding German soldiers were stunned. This crossbow arrow was too overbearing. It could pierce people from such a long distance and then nail them to the ground. If three people stood in a row, how could they become candied haws on a stick?  Crossbow arrows flew over one by one, explosions continued, and trebuchets were destroyed. It was important to save their lives at this time. None of the German soldiers could care about the heavy trebuchets. They ran away one after another. Within a quarter of an hour, the people outside the city  The trebuchet was half destroyed.  Just when the Germans were on tenterhooks, the crossbow arrows finally stopped. Such giant crossbow arrows were not easy to make, so Ren Fe and others had to use them sparingly. Seeing that the trebuchet was almost destroyed, they stopped wasting crossbow arrows.  The crossbow arrows had stopped, but looking at the wreckage of so many trebuchets, Lothair's heart was bleeding. The hateful Easterners and those old Slavs said, "I will make you pay the price."
