Chapter 39: The Thief

"Ahh It was a good night's sleep! It was already dawn, and Ying Ziyi got up and stretched. Next to him, Ah He held a copper basin and stood respectfully aside.

After Yingziyi freshened up under Ah He's service, she knelt on the big bed, and Ah Hu began to comb her hair in a bun. Adie served breakfast, a plate of side dishes, a bowl of corn porridge, and two plates of pastries.

The three sweet and greasy little beauties have been revolving around themselves since the morning, and it feels like Ying Ziyi said that as a determined and promising young man, he is absolutely not corroded by the sugar-coated shells of feudalism.

Just when Ying Ziyi was in pain and happy, a horn interrupted Ying Ziyi's beautiful life.

"What's going on?" Ying Ziyi asked lightly.

Li Ergou hurriedly ran up, "Childe, Hu Ren is here!" ”

"These grandsons!" Yingziyi muttered.

An old bronze door was opened, and what appeared in front of everyone was a long staircase, and Ying Ziyi took Li Ergou to the third floor of the main building. Compared to the structure of the first two floors, the structure of the third floor is not very large, only enough space for more than ten people, but the tower-like structure has already determined its purpose, monitoring the surrounding movements.

On the plain outside the Five Carriage City, the cavalry of the Hu people galloped one by one, whistling, and the momentum was amazing. The sky meets the horizon, the mountains are stacked, the smoke and dust are billowing, and more troops are coming.

"Childe, look at the banner, the army of this Hu people should be the Huns, and the number is at least more than 50,000." Li Ergou observed and said.

Li Ergou has been in the army for many years, and he can be regarded as an excellent general, at least he still has knowledge. "The main force of the Xiongnu is far away in the land of Hetao, thousands of miles away. Now, even if it doesn't come out of the nest, at least half of the power is used. This time, it seems that we will not give up. ”

"Fifty thousand Hu Qi, you really look up to me!" Ying Ziyi smiled and commanded Li Ergou: "Call Zhang Han and Gong Yiyi." ”

"Yes, Childe."

When Zhang Han and Gong Yiyi walked onto the three-story watchtower, Yingziyi stood with his negative hands facing the wind, and the X grid was full.

"Childe!" The two clasped their fists and saluted.

"Yes! Hu rode north, and the momentum was monstrous. I only have 3,000 soldiers in Wuche City, and this Cheng is in danger of survival. The whole city should unite as one, strive to the outside world, and not be taken lightly. ”

"But by the orders of the child."

"The Hu people are here, and they are tired, and they don't think they will attack the city immediately. Moreover, the enemy is all cavalry, and it will take time to build siege equipment. The male loses the wings, and orders the children of the male loser to immediately install ballistas and trebuchets. ”

"Subordinates obey!" The public lost his wing and immediately went down.

"Zhang Han!"

"The last general!"

"Open the arsenal, distribute strong crossbows and arrows, and before noon, three thousand sergeants were on standby under the walls. In addition, ballistas, crossbow arrows for trebuchets, ammunition, and all logistical armaments are at your disposal. ”

"The last general obeys!" Zhang Han received the order and also retreated.

"Li Ergou!"

At this time, Li Ergou, who had been standing on the side, walked behind Ying Ziyi, leaned over and hugged his fists and said, "My subordinates are here!" ”

"The great enemy is approaching, and you lead two hundred of my guards to patrol the city. There are 20,000 immigrants in the city, and if they have the heart of a lizard, they will not be killed. ”

"Subordinates obey!" Li Ergou was about to go down, only to hear Ying Ziyi continue: "In addition, you apply for household registration in the city, and before dark, help me find these people to come over." ”

Li Ergou bent down and took the silk strip from Ying Ziyi's hand. He glanced at it, the name on it was very eye-catching, and he didn't know what Ying Ziyi was looking for these people to do? For Ying Ziyi's order, Li Ergou has always faithfully implemented it, bowed down and retreated.

As Ying Ziyi expected, the Xiongnu came from afar and were unable to attack the city for a while, so they were only stationed outside the city.

Large fields and acres of green seedlings were trampled by war horses, and the hard work of the people of Wuchecheng for months was now destroyed. Tents were erected outside the city, corrals were repaired, and cattle and sheep were driven in. The combat efficiency of the Xiongnu was indeed very high, and before noon, Touman with 20,000 vanguard troops surrounded Wuchecheng, intending to make a pre-war intimidation. After all, the other party is only a six or seven-year-old child, and if he can scare him into surrendering without a fight, it would be the best.

"On the city wall, there is the fourteenth prince of Great Qin." Touman observed the city defense of the five-car city, and was secretly shocked in his heart, the horse face battlement had been built on the city wall. Five or six ballistas were already standing at the head of the city. It seems that the enemy has been prepared for a long time, and it is not easy to attack.

"Tou Mandanyu, you have traveled thousands of miles to come here just to bully a seven-year-old child?" Ying Ziyi held a small horn and said loudly.

Touman was stunned, he was not good at speaking, and when Ying Ziyi said this, his rhythm was disrupted, and he was speechless for a while.

Ying Ziyi observed from the city wall, and secretly said that this man really thief was riding a horse and standing just outside the range of the ballista. However, that is only the distance of the standard ballista in the army. What Touman didn't know was that the ballistae in the Five Cars City were specially made and shot farther.

Since you are so big, don't blame your brother for not being righteous, Ying Ziyi said secretly in her heart. In order to distract Touman, prepare time for the covert shooting.

Ying Ziyi continued: "My Great Qin is a country of etiquette, a great country, and it is based on integrity. I, Anxi Jun Yingziyi, have always adhered to the principle of peaceful coexistence with neighbors. Now I suggest, put aside the controversy and develop together. War is the root of all evil, and we must coexist peacefully, in solidarity and fraternity, and in good neighbourliness."

Seeing that Ying Ziyi was about to talk endlessly, Touman couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Enough." ”

"For the sake of King Yingzheng's face, if you are willing to offer 20,000 catties of gold, 50 war horses in the Western Regions, and 800 carts of grain. The 100,000 soldiers of our Great Huns quit their troops and returned to the north. If you refuse, there will be no grass on the day the city is broken. ”

Touman shouted, so loud that even the residents of the Five Cars City could hear it. This is also the effect that Touman wants, in order to make the other party panic and self-defeating.

Who are you fooling this stinky and shameless one! How can you have 100,000 people, and you still want to empty gloves white wolves, dreaming! Yingzi Yi slandered.

Wow, Ying Ziyi cried out, tears in her eyes. It's like a child who is scared of being bullied by bad people.

Seeing Yingziyi on the city wall, Touman and the generals behind him laughed unconsciously. This battle seems to be easy to win.

Bump, bump, touch the bowstring, just when Touman got carried away. At the head of the city, several crossbow arrows emitted a death howl, and with a chill, they broke through the air. At the same time, from inside the five-car city, eight trebuchets were fired at the same time, and eight specially made stone projectiles were parabolic and crossed a long distance and smashed into Touman.

From ridicule to surprise to fear, all this is beyond Touman's cognition. The crossbow arrows that he thought would fall in the middle of the road were getting closer and closer, but his body froze, and he didn't know how to react.

"Be careful!" The warrior beside him let out a loud shout, and Touman's mind temporarily sobered up. Between life and death, Touman shouted loudly and pulled the reins sharply.

Touman rode well, the neighing of the war horse under his seat, the front hooves were high, and at the critical moment, he blocked the arrow for Touman.

The crossbow arrow broke through the air and pierced the war horse under the head man's seat with an arrow. bumped, the war horse instantly lost its vitality and rolled on the side, Touman fell off the saddle and rolled on the ground several times, looking extremely embarrassed.

But the nightmare did not end there, the ballista and catapult were originally fired with Touman as the center, even if the accuracy was slightly worse and deviated from some distance, but Touman's side, all of whom were excellent generals who had followed him for many years, had suffered an unwarranted disaster at this moment.

"Oh, what a pity!" On the city wall, Ying Ziyi had a gloating expression, holding a small trumpet and saying cool words.

Touman stood up and looked at the men around him who had suffered heavy casualties, he was still laughing and laughing a moment ago, but now it was the difference between life and death. His eyes were bloodshot, his muscles were bruised, and he scolded angrily at Yingziyi on the city wall: "Yingjiao, my head man and you are incompatible. In the day when the city is broken, I will eat your flesh raw, and sleep on your skin. ”

"Your wife and I support yourself, and you have nothing to worry about!"

Then, another round of crossbow arrows and stone bullets rushed towards Touman.
