The logistics at the rear is already cooking.
With so many people, cooking is also a huge project.
The aroma of the rice disperses, no matter whether you are hungry or not, the smell will increase your appetite.
There are too many people, so we can only eat in batches.
"Your Highness, so those infected people can't get through?"
Meng Tian and other lieutenants were observing the new canal.
A distance of two meters can be crossed by some people with long strides.
If it was three meters, no one would be able to cross it.
Many people in the field tried it.
As long as the run-up can be crossed.
This also makes people doubt whether the canal defense project is really useful.
"Isn't this in a hurry?"
"There is not enough time, otherwise digging three meters is the best."
"But don't be afraid, even if there are infected people, there will not be many."
"You are human, so you can cross over. Those infected people can't jump."
Ying Ziye also wanted to dig three meters wide, but he didn't have enough time and tools.
I can only give up, two meters wide is enough.
Even if infected people come, most of them fall into the water.
Perhaps a small number of infected people will cross their side.
But there is no need to worry about anything, there are definitely not many who can get over it.
After they had eaten, it was getting dark.
Here a bonfire is lit.
From time to time, there will be a roar in the distance.
It sounded like the howling of wild animals.
Chapter 704 They are coming, the storm is coming
into the night.
Most of the soldiers were arranged to rest.
The 200-meter defense line does not need many soldiers to guard it.
But for safety reasons, four thousand soldiers were sent to guard.
In fact, four thousand soldiers are a lot.
After all, the defense line is too short, only 200 meters, and 4000 people are very crowded.
In the end, 2000 people defended, and 2000 people responded or changed shifts at any time.
Ying Ziye was quite relieved about the defense project.
He also ran off to sleep.
With so many people around, it's impossible for something to happen.
At the same time, he also arranged a lot of bonfires.
People use kerosene and trees to light a lot of bonfires on the periphery.
If an infected person came running, at least they could see it.
It's not so dark that you can't see anything.
But his approach, others do not understand.
I think it's a waste of fire oil, after all, who knows when the infected will come.
Maybe if the firewood is burned out and no infected people are seen, that is a waste of kerosene.
But His Highness told him to burn it, and they didn't dare to say anything more.
As a general, Meng Tian's soldiers' safety is closely related to him.
He was worried, he personally guarded the canal defense project here.
Originally, Han Xin also wanted to stay.
But Meng Tian asked him to rest first, and guard them in batches overnight.
One person guards half, so that everyone can feel at ease.
In the end, Han Xin also obeyed this decision and ran to rest.
If two people stay here and don't sleep, then everyone will be out of spirit tomorrow.
There is still a lot to do tomorrow.
Meng Tian found a chair and sat inside the soldiers' defensive line.
Several lieutenants also followed.
The night is long, and if the infected do not come, they will relax.
Several people gathered around a table to drink tea and eat snacks.
If the infected people don't come, then they are equivalent to drinking tea at night happily.
The lieutenants also discussed the current situation with Meng Tian.
How to get rid of the infected people.
Anyway, if they are all attacked, the infected cannot be allowed to reach the Daqin territory.
These infected people are terrible, and the intensity of the infection is also terrible.
If they cannot be eliminated, then the Great Qin in the later period will be very dangerous.
They have no better way.
You can only follow His Highness's command.
Fortunately, His Royal Highness came with him.
Otherwise they don't know what to do here.
Like this natural line of defense right now.
It can be defended by digging up 200 meters of soil.
If His Highness is not there, they will not be able to find it if they come to look for it by themselves.
If His Highness is not here, they don't know where to hide tonight.
There are so many of them, it's almost impossible to hide.
It's not safe here at night.
Many infected people do not know when they will attack.
At that time, they will be in danger without defense.
"Ow..."
"Roar..."
There were many chaotic sounds in the distance.
There was roaring and running.
When these voices reached Meng Tian and the others, they were already countless times weaker.
But this night, except for the chirping of some insects, it was silent.
Therefore, these voices reached everyone's ears more clearly.
Although the sound is low due to the distance, it can be heard clearly in the silent night.
"coming!"
Meng Tian stood up.
The rest of the lieutenants also followed nervously.
Walk to the front of the defense line together.
But the night is too dark.
There are some stars in the sky, but nothing can be seen clearly on the ground.
Everything that came into view was pitch black.
Only around the bonfire that His Royal Highness had ordered to set before, was there any fire.
But for the time being, no infected people were seen around.
It is estimated that it has not come yet, but the roar came first.
Before, they didn't understand why His Highness wasted kerosene on the bonfire.
But at this moment they all understood.
That's because you can see whether there are infected people and how many infected people there are.
This bonfire was not at all wasted, it was prescient.
Otherwise, if some infected people come, they will not be able to see clearly, and they will not know how many infected people there are.
The defending soldiers also bowed their bows and set their arrows ready.
Meng Tian couldn't help frowning when he saw it.
There are defense lines here, and it is obviously unwise to have archers to defend.
At this time, there is no need for archers, but soldiers with long spears and broadswords.
"The archers retreat, and the long swords step forward."
Meng Tian issued such an order.
The soldiers quickly switched formations.
Although they don't quite understand.
But that's okay, as long as the instructions are followed.
Soldiers with knives and spears stood on the edge of the canal.
Staring nervously at the campfire opposite.
For the time being, there were no infected people around the bonfire.
But those roaring and running sounds got closer.
The movement was not small, and the ground felt slightly trembling.
Judging from this posture, there should be many infected people coming.
It was too dark to see clearly.
Otherwise, they would probably be frightened by this huge scene.
"General, why do I feel like a storm is coming?"
"It seems that there are a lot of infected people here."
Deputy General Zhao wiped his eyes hard.
But it was too dark in the distance, and he couldn't see anything.
"Don't say it's you, this general also feels bad."
"But fortunately there is a defensive line here."
