Who knew that at this time, hundreds of villagers poured up at the foot of the mountain, and they carried them on their shoulders, eating and boiling water, and other water prices were delivered to everyone's eyes.

Li Yi held the hands of several villagers and expressed his gratitude, but the villagers said that this was what the people could do, and only by repelling the army of Dayi Ningguo could they keep their homes, but expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the soldiers who fought bloodily.

Li Yi's eyes couldn't help but moisten slightly, but his heart was full of emotion.

The common people are the biggest reliance of our army! With the support and help of the people, the army can win the war and the country can maintain long-term peace and stability. Only by keeping the people in mind at all times, can the people think and work together with you, and can we truly build a harmonious home!

Sending off the people who were enthusiastic to help each other, eating a hot hundred family meals, everyone was in high spirits, swept away the tired color of the Tang Dynasty, and their hearts immediately rose.

After repelling several enemy attacks one after another, the reinforcements sent by Lin Yi also arrived one after another, and a large number of dry food, drinking water, weapons and other materials were also transported.

Li Hui, the commander of the logistics battalion of the team leader, brought the latest news to Li Yi. Lin Yi has already sent a large number of tents, medicines, materials, equipment, and weapons to Pingyang Pass, plus the 800 people who rushed to the aid of Baiwu Pass, and the men and horses transferred from other customs defenses, the defenders of Pingyang Pass have also been replenished to nearly 3,000 people.

However, due to the lack of manpower, there are now only two or three hundred officers and soldiers defending the city in Ningzhou, and the young and middle-aged people in the city are all organized to participate in maintaining law and order in the city.

And the most gratifying thing is that Linjiabao, Guojiazhai and other nearby villages are enthusiastically delivering food, clothing and quilts to the front line, so that the front-line soldiers no longer have to worry about the future.

Hearing so much good news, Li Yi couldn't help but feel relieved. Since Lin Yi arranged the second echelon so quickly, he had the confidence to fight the next tug-of-war. As long as these two passes are held, even if the enemy has thousands of troops, he will be helpless.

However, the current confrontation situation has changed to the aspect of logistical warfare, and in any case, it is necessary to ensure that the front-line officers and men are well fed, clothed, and rested, and that the weapons and equipment must meet the needs of the battlefield to the greatest extent.

The officers and soldiers of Yunnan are backed by Ningzhou, as well as the whole of Yunnan, and these supplies are not a problem. As long as a stalemate situation is formed, as a result, the enemy is numerous, and the logistical supply will inevitably be tight. When the supply from all sides cannot keep up, it will have a great impact on the psychology of the enemy, and the morale of the people will be weakened and the army will not be able to fight, and it will not be far from them returning without success.

Li Yi drew up an order on the spot, asking Li Hui to report back to Lin Yi immediately, emphasizing the importance of military supply again, and immediately arranging for Lin Yi to start dispatching strong young people and civilians who had previously served in the army and had combat experience from all over Yunnan, and to make proper arrangements in the last two days, and to requisition and transfer to Pingyang Pass and Zhulonggou to garrison them, so as to maximize the strength of the front line.

Of course, the Yuezhou Guard, which directly faces the Tonghai side, should also strengthen its defense to prevent the Tonghai side from taking advantage of the fire to rob. Although according to the advance grasp of the situation, it is very unlikely that Tonghai will take advantage of the chaos to attack Yunnan, but if this kind of thing really happens, it will be a catastrophe for Yunnan.

It was getting dark, and the enemy's offensive momentum had weakened considerably. Li Yi left Zhuang Qian, Yue Chang, Lin Ju, Lin Jue and others, as well as most of his own soldiers, to assist Jian Zheng in defending Zhulonggou, and only took Lian Jun, Ling Feng and other twenty or thirty personal soldiers to hurry to Pingyang Pass, which is the place that the enemy is most eager to capture, only by taking Pingyang Pass, the enemy can drive straight in, directly threatening the safety of the entire Yunnan.

By the time Li Yi arrived at Pingyang Pass, the night had completely shrouded here. Entering the command post on the gate, Yin Quan had already rushed back. The night before, he was drunk and did not return, but he was just in time for the enemy's massive attack and almost lost Pingyang Pass.

However, this can't blame Yin Quan, after all, Li Yi himself was drunk that night, and he didn't completely sober up until the next morning. The enemy chose to attack on the night of Lin Yi's wedding, and he must have known the situation here well.

As soon as Yin Quan saw Li Yi, he knelt down and pleaded guilty, Li Yi hurriedly helped him up, and explained that it was not his fault, but that the enemy had planned it a long time ago, and took this opportunity to plot against us in Yunnan, which is an unguardable thing, and the fault is not in any one person, but in the whole of Yunnan has relaxed its vigilance, and the primary responsibility is still myself.

Thankfully, we haven't made a big mistake yet. In the future, as long as we are more vigilant, we will never make the same mistake again.

Next, the big guys sat together, discussed the defense measures in and around Pingyang Pass, and mobilized capable forces to strengthen the destruction and patrol defense of each trail, so as not to let the enemy sneak in again. However, due to the continuous increase in reinforcements, Binh Duong Pass has been able to guard in shifts, which has greatly reduced the fatigue of officers and men.

The equipment has also been significantly strengthened, counting the two bed crossbows transported from Ningzhou, Pingyang Pass already has six bed crossbows, which poses a greater threat to the enemy's catapults and other offensive forces, and now the enemy's catapults do not dare to approach Pingyang Pass easily, and the damage has been greatly reduced.

Everyone was busy all day, almost all of them did not enter the water and rice, and when they were discussing the meal, the guards outside the door came to report that Mr. Lin Qingliang Lin from Linjiabao had come to labor with a large amount of supplies.

Hearing that Lin Qingliang was coming, Li Yi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly led someone out to greet him. Before he walked outside the door, Lin Qingliang had already walked in, and when he saw Li Yi, he smiled and said, "Hehe!" The handsome is here, this is really good, our soldiers fought on the battlefield, and it was very hard. We merchants couldn't help much, so we had to prepare some food to replenish the soldiers. ”

Li Yi smiled happily and said, "What Mr. Lin prepared, it must have been said." Hehe! We're hungry for what they're all about! ”

Lin Qingliang smiled and said, "Hehe! Do you want to talk about the delicacies of the mountains and the sea? That's definitely gone, hehe! However, Lin Mou started to work before noon, and he had already prepared thousands of catties of cooked beef, so he hurriedly sent it over, although the amount prepared in a hurry was not much, but everyone guaranteed to be able to share some. The soldiers fought bloodily and exerted a lot of physical strength, so it would be very beneficial to eat some beef! ”

"Rest assured, we are not a one-shot deal, I am ready to slaughter dozens of more cattle tonight, and I will deliver the beef on time tomorrow afternoon, and I will never break my promise."
