Yang Rui immediately guessed the purpose of the Yellow Turban Formation as soon as the shadow of the crude wooden boats appeared. They wanted to use these boats to transport soldiers across the moat and strengthen the attack on the city walls on both sides!
However, there was a trench wall built along the inner edge of the moat of Juping County. The height of the trench wall was not something that could be climbed with bare hands. Yang Rui was confident that the soldiers would climb up the trench after crossing the moat!
But this time, Yang Rui was wrong! After the Yellow Turban Army soldiers carried out the simple wooden boats, they drove five or six boats to the moat to test it out. However, after discovering that they could not climb the moat, they quickly retreated.
Yang Rui originally thought that the Yellow Turban Army would retreat in the face of difficulties. However, the Yellow Turban Army continued to transport those crude wooden boats to the moat. Yang Rui did not know what they were up to.
"Hu ~ Ha ~ Keng Keng ~ Hu ~ Ha ~ Ha ~ Keng Keng …"
The atmosphere on the battlefield did not relax because of the small actions of the Yellow Turban Army. The battle at the city gate was still very intense. Fortunately, the Intermediate City Gate was ten meters tall. Otherwise, it would have been buried by the corpses of the Yellow Turban Army.
Many players, including Yang Rui, had verified that the corpses on the battlefield would respawn every hour. If that was not the case, no matter how tall the city gate was, it would eventually be filled up. By then, there would be no need to fight anymore. Judging from the number of soldiers in Juping County, even if they were of a higher tier, they would be drowned by the Yellow Turban Army!
"Hu ~ Ha ~ Keng Keng ~ Hu ~ Ha ~ Ha ~ Keng Keng …"
Half an hour after Yang Rui took over the west gate … The various defenses had already stabilized and stabilized, but Yang Rui still had some misgivings. The Yellow Turban Army was still moving the crude wooden boats. They must be planning something! Therefore, Yang Rui had to pay attention to it from time to time.
After the Yellow Turban Army soldiers carried out the crude wooden boats, they placed them almost side by side on the side of the moat. Then, they turned around to carry the next boat. They kept repeating this process until the number of boats reached 20 or 30. Two Yellow Turban Army soldiers gestured to each other. Yang Rui caught a glimpse of this. This made Yang Rui think of a possibility.
Yang Rui's heart stirred. He looked up at the sky and felt at ease again. At this time, it was already half past five in the afternoon. The early spring days were short, and the sun was not high in the sky. It was estimated that the sky would turn dark in less than an hour! Even if it was as Yang Rui thought, Huang Jin had no time to complete it!
Unless … Yang Rui's heart skipped a beat. If the Yellow Turban Army brought out these crude wooden boats, they might really be planning to take action at night!
Thinking of this. Yang Rui thought for a moment and quickly called Li Dong to his side. He whispered a few words into Li Dong's ear and had him quickly leave the city gate. With Li Dong's background and skills, he was already gone in a few moments. Moreover, he did not attract much attention.
"Huff ~ Hah ~ Clang ~ Huff ~ Hah ~ Clang ~ Clang ~ Clang ~ Clang ~"
The players defending the west gate were having a great time killing the Yellow Turban Army. Disregarding the players who were capable of long-range attacks or had long-range archers as subordinates, even the melee players defending the city wall were having a great time killing the Yellow Turban Army and earning a lot of merit points!
Almost all of the high-grade Yellow Turban Army fell in front of the tunnel entrance. The Fourth Grade archers in the intermediate arrow tower at the city gate fired. Only the weakest First Grade Yellow Turban Army could enter the tunnel and pose a threat to the city wall!
For the players, First Grade Yellow Turban Army could be killed with a single strike. There was no need for a second strike. That was why the players defending the city wall no longer tried to flip over the ladders that the Yellow Turban Army had placed on the wall. Instead, they despised the Yellow Turban Army for being too slow and unable to keep up with their killing speed!
There was no need to mention the long-range archers. There were so many Yellow Turban Army below the city wall that they could shoot with their eyes closed. All they needed to do was draw their bows with all their might. Shoot, draw, shoot, and repeat the process. There was no need to worry about anything else. All they needed to do was harvest experience, merit points, and merit points!
"Huu … ha … clang … clang … huu … ha … clang … clang …"
Two hours later, the shouts of the Yellow Turban Army had gradually died down. The soldiers who had been shouting for an entire day were already hoarse, let alone fighting! As night fell, the Yellow Turban Army outside the city finally stopped their attacks. They retreated from the battlefield like a receding tide.
However, they didn't go far. Instead, they set up camp in the city and built tents along the outskirts of the moat. The Yellow Turban Army's actions further confirmed Yang Rui's suspicions! The Yellow Turban Army might actually make a move tonight!
Since the Yellow Turban Army had set up camp outside the city, the Han Court camp naturally needed to rest as well! Since most of the West Gate was made up of players, the county government directly requisitioned a few hundred houses near the West Gate to make it convenient for the soldiers to rest.
After arranging the night patrols, Yang Rui was invited to a small meeting at the county government office. Starting from County Magistrate Wang to Yang Rui, they all explained the situation of the city gate that they were in charge of. Yang Rui realized that the West Gate's situation was the most serious. The situation of the other gates was relatively clear. There were no incidents like the wooden boats being transported!
When County Magistrate Wang and the other two heard about the strange movements of the Yellow Turban Army at the West Gate, they did not think much of it. It seemed like they were very confident in the defense of the city moat! As such, there were not many troublesome problems. The small meeting ended in less than 15 minutes. Compared to the real world, it was more efficient!
When Yang Rui returned to the tower at the West Gate, Li Dong had already completed the task that Yang Rui had given him and returned to the county government. With that, Yang Rui was completely at ease. Even if the Yellow Turban Army's next move was as Yang Rui had predicted, Yang Rui would not be in a passive position!
As such, Yang Rui instructed Li Dong and the others to rest and make sure that they had enough strength to move at any time! Yang Rui also entered the side room of the city gate tower to cultivate his basic Neigong. Even if the Yellow Turban Army were to make a move, it would most likely be after midnight!
That was the truth. When midnight passed, the night patrol soldiers came to wake Yang Rui up. They said that there were many Yellow Turban Army soldiers on the other side of the city moat, and they seemed to be busy with something! This was something that Yang Rui had instructed them to do in advance.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Yang Rui stood up abruptly and called for Li Dong, Tian Bao, and Sun Bao to wake up as well. They secretly opened the West Gate a little and quickly arrived at the city moat.
Of course, for the sake of concealment, Yang Rui had already placed the 100 Second Grade Navy soldiers and 20 small boats in his Universal Pouch and backpack before leaving the city. When they arrived at the river, Yang Rui quickly placed them in the water.
