In the city of Foshan, the atmosphere of war was permeated, Zhu Yihai was ready to fight, and the enemy army also began to arrange troops, ready to attack the city at any time.

Mao Wenlong accompanied Zhu Yihai to stand on the city tower, condescendingly watching the situation outside the city, the first time, Mao Wenlong saw that the 40,000 enemy troops could not see any siege equipment, it seemed that they did not come to attack the city?

With such a question, Mao Wenlong said to Zhu Yihai: "The number of enemy troops is indeed quite large, but there are no siege equipment, they don't seem to be ready to attack the city?" ”

Zhu Yihai obviously saw this, and he laughed and said, "This king and the general soldiers have the same opinion, they must have another purpose." ”

Mao Wenlong glanced at Zhu Yihai, and then asked in a deep voice, "Then what does the prince want to do next?" ”

Zhu Yihai said disapprenously: "I can't see that the enemy army has siege equipment, now we don't have to be afraid of them at all, just wait for them to change." ”

Mao Wenlong nodded, no longer speaking, Zhu Yihai thinks the same as himself, there will be no need to argue. It's a pity that Mao Wenlong doesn't have a hot air balloon now, otherwise he wouldn't have to worry about facing such an army of 40,000 at all.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Yihai suddenly sighed: "I didn't expect these merchants to have such strength, and they were able to organize tens of thousands of horses in just a few days after they went back." Although they are all people's bravery, similar to the rebel army that broke into the thieves before, it also shows the strength of their merchant gangs in the provincial capital. ”

Mao Wenlong looked at Zhu Yihai with some surprise, and a smile slowly appeared on his face: "It's really gratifying that the prince can realize this." These merchant gangs can still thrive in the provincial capital under the strong pressure of the Japanese robbers, and they must have their own unique way of survival, so Mao has been persuading the prince not to underestimate them. ”

Zhu Yihai nodded with a smile when he heard this, but this time he didn't argue with Mao Wenlong again.

Suddenly, two horses rushed out of the enemy's camp and rushed to the bottom of the city before stopping. A strong man sat firmly on the war horse, looked at the city tower a few times, and then let go of his voice and shouted: "Zhu Yihai is there?" ”

The voice like Hong Zhong echoed in the silent wilderness, and Zhu Yihai on the city tower could hear it clearly. He didn't respond, but frowned, with a slightly disgruntled look on his face.

And the man who just shouted did not get a response, he didn't seem to be angry, and continued to shout again by himself: "Zhu Yihai in the city, listen, our general will give you half a day to think about it, after noon, if you don't open the city gate and come out to surrender, then we will attack the city immediately and will not tolerate it!" ”

"Humph!" Zhu Yihai suddenly snorted coldly, and directly snatched the bow and arrow from the back of the guard next to him, he didn't say a word, walked a few steps forward to the wall and stomped, bent the bow and arrows, and acted quickly.

"Whoosh......"

The sharp arrow was aimed at the strong man who was shouting, and roared away.

Suddenly feeling abnormal, the strong man hurriedly looked around, and when he saw a sharp arrow coming straight towards him, his face immediately changed greatly. Raising his hand, the strong man swung his knife and was about to knock off the sharp arrow, however, his movement was still a step slower, and the sharp arrow seemed to have eyes, and shot at him in front of the door.

When he swung the knife, he felt bad, and the strong man's skills were also good, knowing that his knife could not knock sharp arrows, he simply turned over and jumped off the horse. Roll on the ground several times in a row before standing firmly.

The strong man looked very embarrassed, but fortunately he had already picked up a small life and was not injured by sharp arrows. And his mount just now was not as lucky as him, and was directly shot into the horse's neck by a sharp arrow shot by Zhu Yihai.

The horse let out a mournful roar, and the raised front hooves almost knocked the strong man who got off the horse to the ground. The strong man quickly avoided the attacking war horse, and when he looked back, the war horse had flipped to the ground, and its four hooves began to twitch violently, and it seemed that it was hopeless.

The strong man was stunned for a moment when he suddenly suffered such a change, and his face gradually showed anger, when he raised his head and wanted to scold at the castle tower. Suddenly, he saw Zhu Yihai who pointed his bow and arrow at him again, the strong man was obviously not stupid, he didn't dare to say more, and fled back in disgrace.

drove away the guy who came to provoke, Zhu Yihai dropped his bow and arrows, and coldly ordered the general beside him: "If anyone dares to come to call for battle, there will be no mercy!" ”

Qing Huaiwu's face turned cold, and he immediately responded: "Yes, Lord Wang!" ”

A large battalion of the enemy army.

Lai Jiaxing and Ling Dake were waiting for the news of the shouting in the makeshift tent, but after a while, the strong man who had just been shot to death hurried back. The strong man with an embarrassed look rushed directly into the big tent, and said to the two of them with an angry face: "General, Zhu Yihai is too uninteresting, his subordinates just went to shout, the old guy didn't say a word, and directly released the arrow, if it wasn't for the quick reaction of his subordinates, maybe he would have died under his arrow." ”

The two of them looked gloomy when they heard this, and Lai Jiaxing looked at Ling Dake beside him: "Big brother, it seems that this Zhu Yihai toasts and doesn't eat and drink, and we don't have to talk to him anymore, just bombard him with artillery." ”

Ling Dake shook his head and said, "No, we can't directly attack the city unless we have to." If a war breaks out, it will inevitably cause great casualties, and even if we can win the war, we cannot afford the consequences. ”

40,000 soldiers and horses are almost half of the family of the two families, if it is directly finished here in Foshan, then the strength of the merchants in the provincial capital will inevitably be greatly damaged. And the business gangs in the provincial capital who are eyeing each other will definitely rush up, and in the end, the business gangs in the provincial capital will inevitably be more auspicious.

Lai Jiaxing was dumbfounded, of course, he was also clear about his own situation. The 40,000 soldiers and horses in front of him are not as scourge as he wants, and once the casualties are too great, these two generals will not be able to escape the responsibility.

Although he understood that he couldn't start fighting easily, Lai Jiaxing was still unwilling to say: "Big brother, what should we do now?" Is it just like this? ”

Originally, the two had already thought of a plan, and with the huge momentum of 40,000 soldiers and horses, they expected to shock Zhu Yihai as soon as they came, and then try to resolve the matter of Foshan Mansion as peacefully as possible. But as soon as they came, they were met with a strong response from Zhu Yihai, and they didn't even listen to their shouts.

This was undoubtedly beyond Ling Dake's expectations, and for a while, he didn't know what to do next.

When the two were confused, the strong man who had just gone to shout hesitated, and opened his mouth to say: "General, this Zhu Yihai obviously will not compromise easily, and his subordinates think that we should bombard them with artillery, maybe we can scare him." ”

Ling Dake's eyes lit up and he agreed: "Okay, just follow your method, give it a try!" ”
