"It turns out that this friend used to be in the Imperial Army, that's just great! To be honest, we steppe people have never been in a city, so we don't know how to fight this defensive battle? Now there is an expert like you, it is simply the Yokda (meaning angel in the steppe language) sent to us by the Sacred Mountain Ancestral God!"

When Uncle Kunsang heard that Chu Chongshan had served in the Imperial Army, he was overjoyed.

No city had ever been built on the steppe, so I had no experience in attacking or defending cities.

Decades ago, he fought the Empire, and at that time he went to the interior of the Empire to raid.

But as long as they encounter a slightly larger city, these steppe people almost always go around the city, and rarely carry out tough battles!

And every time he captured a city, he plundered it and quickly retreated, so he never defended the city.

In every war, the steppe people relied on the rapid mobility of the cavalry, and the suddenness, which they had never experienced at all.

Experience in this area is almost the equivalent of a blank slate. Now that there is an old soldier like Chu Chongshan coming out, he wants to help him defend the silver tent together, how can he not make Kunsang overjoyed!

Not to mention the old Kunsang in his heart, he prayed countless times for the manifestation of the ancestral god of the holy mountain.

Chu Chongshan asked first: "I know, we don't have enough manpower now, but can you allocate a hundred people to me first!"

"Of course, I'll send some elites over and listen to your command right away!"

Chu Chongshan said with a smile: "Uncle Kunsang, in fact, you don't need some elites to defend the city for the time being, as long as you give me some ordinary people!

"How can this be reused by ordinary people? With a military expert like you, I should naturally support it with all my might!"

"Uncle Kunsang, in fact, defending the city is nothing more than careful deployment and active defense! Coupled with all kinds of defense equipment! Annihilating a large number of soldiers who came to attack the city! The enemy cannot climb the city wall and engage in hand-to-hand combat! The goal has been achieved!"

"But I don't know, what equipment do we need to defend the city?

"Now that our silver tent is at a very high point, I see the edge of the slope rising to form a standing angle to face it!

"Although I really don't know how to defend the city, I have heard people say that it is necessary to have thistles, antlers, traps, horse repellents, iron water chestnuts and other equipment. But these things, except for rejecting the horse gun and trapping the horse pit, I know. I've only heard of the rest, and I've never seen it yet!"

"Uncle Kunsang, those things are all set up to deal with the cavalry and stop them from advancing quickly!

"Then what does Mr. need, please tell me as soon as possible, and I will send someone to prepare immediately!" Uncle Kunsang heard Chu Chongshan talk eloquently, and his heart suddenly became admired, and your address towards him began to change to Mr.

"And I know that there are almost no large siege engines on the steppe. Since there are no large-scale siege equipment, I guess those rebels can only attack the city by means of ladders and the like! If this is the case, then our way of defending the city is much simpler! So we don't need to prepare more equipment, we can have one or two things, and we can defend the city as impregnable!"

"Can you achieve this effect with just one or two things?"

"Our current earthen city is only temporary, and there is no moat, so there is no need to bury iron water chestnuts! But we need to prepare a lot of wood and oil! But I don't know if anyone on your grassland can use flying hooks?"

"I know the wood and the oil, but what is the flying hook?

"Uncle Kunsang, don't call me sir, I really can't afford it! In the next surname Chu Ming Chongshan, if Uncle Kunsang doesn't dislike it, just call me brother!"

"Okay, Brother Chu, let Old Kunsang no longer be polite! Please tell me what the flying hook is?" Kunsang saw that Chu Chongshan was talking and doing things, without pretentiousness, and he was also a person of temperament, and he felt close in his heart.

"This hook is actually very simple, it is composed of a sharp iron hook and a chain of iron. It is mainly used when the enemy is climbing, and our soldiers defending the city hook it with iron hooks, and then hang it in the air, a kind of equipment for us to attack! Because this thing is easy to make, I guess we may have it on the grassland!"

"Brother Chu, don't be afraid of your jokes, there has always been a shortage of iron tools on the grassland! After Uncle Kunsang heard what Chu Chongshan said, he couldn't help but blush, and said embarrassedly.

"I forgot that, but what can I do instead?"

"Is it okay to lasso? Because everyone on the grassland will have a lasso in their hands! This set of maso is woven from the tougher grass on the grassland, and a large amount of horsehair and cow and sheep leather are added to it, and the toughness is no less than that of an iron chain! And everyone has the technique of using a lasso!"

"In that case, it can also be replaced! There are also sandalwood and kerosene, do we have reserves of kerosene?"

"We don't have a lot of oil in stock, and we usually use it at bonfires, so we still have one or two barrels in stock. But although I have seen such a thing as salamina in the Central Plains, we don't have it now. Although we don't, we can make some!"

"Uncle Kunsang, you said that there are only one or two barrels of fire oil, but the wood has to be made on the spot!" Chu Chongshan realized when he heard this, there were no of these things used to defend the city for half a day, and there was nothing on the grassland.

Uncle Kunsang couldn't help but be embarrassed, rubbed his hands together again and again, and said: "It is estimated that it will take a while for our army's brigade to come up! It is still too late to hurry up and make sassal wood! But there are really only one or two barrels of fire oil!"

When Chu Chongshan heard this, he couldn't help frowning. It seems that there is really a shortage of materials on this grassland, and even these common city defense equipment on the continent are not the same.

I also deliberately did not mention those cutting-edge city defense equipment, such as wooden donkey carts, Semen knife carts, bed crossbows, and so on.

Because these city-guarding equipment are high-end even in the empire, Chu Chongshan didn't even mention it. He only mentioned some of the most common city-guarding equipment, but he didn't even have these things, and the grassland people didn't have them, which really made him feel a little useless!

Seeing Chu Chongshan frowning, Ye Nineteen said, "Since the fire oil is insufficient, can you replace it with boiling water?"

Nineteen hours at night, but growing up in Xiaohu Pass, that place is also a place of continuous warfare, naturally I have seen and heard a lot of ways to defend the city. I remember hearing the third uncle say that once the fire oil in the city was insufficient, boiling water could be used to achieve the purpose of defending the city.

"It's just that the boiling water is too slow, and I'm afraid that it won't be enough to apply when the time comes!"

"Don't be afraid, we are close to the hot spring lake, the lake is hot, as long as it is slightly heated, it can be boiled!" Uncle Kunsang said on the side.

"In that case, hurry up and send more people to make the sandalwood! I don't know, is there a giant tree to make the sandalwood?"

"Remove the logs that support the tent and tie sharp iron nails to it!

"Uncle Kunsang, there is one thing that I don't know whether to talk about or not?"

"Brother Chu, but it's okay to say!"

"Since ancient times, the war has been a matter between us men, but today I see the girls acting as archers! Maybe the customs on the grassland are different from those in the Central Plains, and in the opinion of brothers, women should still not go to the battlefield! If it is not until the last moment, it is better not to let those girls go to the battlefield again. ”

"Actually, women were never allowed to participate in the war on the grassland, but at that time, the terrain of our slope had not risen, and all the men were ready to counterattack! That's why I let this group of girls act as archers! Now that we are defending an earthen city, naturally we don't need this group of girls to come up again! But this group of girls is eager for revenge, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to persuade them!"

"Uncle Kunsang, if that's the case, let them boil the water, and when the war is over, they will be in charge of treating the wounded!"

"Brother, that's a good idea!

Uncle Kunsang commanded his subordinates to knock down the tents one by one, removing the silver tent, but leaving only a small tent, which was where Helian Red Sleeves rested.

He also found a chainsaw and sawed it into two pieces, and removed the tips of the spears and spears that were in the stockpile, and nailed them to them.

Everyone worked together, and the speed was much faster, but in a short period of time, more than a dozen pieces of sandalwood had been made.

Chu Chongshan also ordered those steppe people to take out some lassos and roll them into thick nooses, tie them at both ends of the sassags, and then ordered these sassals to be hung on the temporary city wall.

At this time, someone came to report that although there were still logs, there were no iron tools such as spikes nailed to them, and asked Chu Chongshan what to do?

Chu Chongshan thought for a while, and ordered these sassalwood to be tied to the sections of the city wall that were easy to climb, and some of them were left for backup, and the rest were sawn into stakes and used as saddles.

Those prairie girls had already brought out the huge iron pots in the tents. He brought hot water from the hot spring lake and began to boil the water.

But another problem arises: what kind of container will be used to bring the boiling water to the city walls? He ordered the people to look for barrels and other containers, but even in the steppes there was a great shortage of such items.

It took more than a dozen wooden barrels to collect from all the places, and then someone found a wine cellar and quickly reported to Chu Chongshan, asking if it was okay to use a wine bag to hold boiling water?

This wine cellar was the place where the Khan of Khan stored wine, and Chu Chongshan was overjoyed when he heard it! Most of the mare's milk wine that Khan drank was produced by the Kunpun people of the wild Khan.

The wine-making method of the Kunpeng people is learned from the Central Plains, and the mare's milk wine is made by the method of double distillation, with a very high alcohol content, and it is a spirit!

These spirits ignite when caught on fire, and can completely replace the role of fire oil!

The Kunpeng people who found the wine cellar were just about to pour out the wine! After being stopped by Chu Chongshan, they took it to the city wall one after another.

In order to prevent the rebels from attacking with fire, Chu Chongshan ordered the video to find some loose soil and prepare it next to some flammable materials to extinguish the fire when the rebels attacked.

These things had just been prepared for a prototype when they heard a burst of cheers from the rebels!

All of a sudden, the rebels were in full swing!
