Author: Going to Drunk People

The seventh year of Zhenguan, the first day of April.

When Qibi Heli, Xi Tong, Murong Fuyun, and Tuoba Zhao were unable to defeat the other, the resentful army finally began to exert its strength.

If the previous siege by Wanqi Pu and Pu Luboqi was just to harass Chuihe City, it did not cause any substantial damage to Chuihe City.

So this time, the resentful army became ruthless.

Early that morning, Zhao Yan led his men to set up an improved version of the trebuchet.

But Wanqi Pu was even more ruthless and directly built several huge scaffoldings in the trench.

Since the city wall was built to protect Gao Chunxing and others, he simply stood in the front, which not only blocked the view of Chuihe City, but also acted as a human shield.

In his words, soldiers use their flesh and blood to build an iron-like wall for their compatriots.

Of course, this guy is still too reckless. If he can come up with a better way, he won't be used as a human shield!

"Your Highness, this is a good idea, isn't it? Even if Gao Chunxing's city wall is built, it will not be visible from inside the city! Hahaha..."

Wan Qi Pu was very satisfied with his masterpiece.

Li Chengqian didn't want to say much at first. He still preferred to leave the war to professionals. And although this method was a bit clumsy, it did show that Wanqi Pu was attentive.

It was difficult for him to come up with such a method.

But seeing Wan Qipu's expression waiting to be praised, Li Chengqian found it funny and immediately asked: "Are you going to look at Dingcheng King and Dayan Mangjiebo from afar on this shelf?"

"How can that be impossible!" Wan Qi Pu immediately said with a mean smile, "Hehe... We have tried it. At this height, as long as our repeating crossbow is slightly raised to this level, it can just cover the top of their city.

.

I plan to open the eyes of Dayan Mangjiebo and King Dingcheng. Do you really think that if you just hide in the bastard’s shell, I won’t be able to take advantage of him?”

As he said this, Wan Qipu also gestured with his hand at an angle of about 45 degrees.

There was a mean look on that face.

Li Chengqian kicked him on the butt: "Who the hell are you talking to? You can't talk too big or too small!"

He wasn't really angry. Wan Qipu and others learned these words from him...

Li Chengqian also didn’t expect that during his time travel, the cultural output of later generations would be the Chinese quintessence with extremely high maternal content that was the first to occupy the market.

"Hehe, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." Wan Qipu said with a simple smile.

After following Li Chengqian for so long, how could he not understand Li Chengqian's character?

That is true love, beating and scolding is true love.

If it weren't for those two people, would Li Chengqian take action against him?

"Is this angle sure it can cover the top of the city?"

Wan Qi Pu heard this and laughed: "That's right, we have already tested it."

"I am not surprised that you put up such a pretense. You said you have tried it? Who are you deceiving?"

What kind of person is Wan Qi Pu? Li Cheng Qian’s family is clear.

What kind of experiments this guy will do, I won’t believe it even if I beat him to death!

Upon hearing what Li Chengqian said, Wan Qipu scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Well, Zhao Yan has tried it."

Having said this, he said seriously, "He said it can be done. That guy is very meticulous in his work! If he says it can be done, then it must be done!"

Although Wan Qipu doesn't like to use his brain, most people like him are loyal, so he can't harm Zhao Yan because of this!

But when he said this, Li Chengqian nodded.

Since Zhao Yan has tried it, he must be sure of it.

That guy came from the East Palace, and the level of meticulousness in his work is really unparalleled.

In addition to Wanqi Pu and the others, Pulu Boqi and Yi Yuanfeng were also busy.

Everything is preparation for the siege.

Of course, although it was said that it was an attack on the city, no one actually thought about actually taking it down.

It would be even more troublesome to really defeat the city of Chuihe, which was guarded by tens of thousands of troops in Dayan Mangjie.

An enemy force ten times their size may not be able to cope with a trapped beast fight.

On the opposite side, Dayan Mangjiebo and King Dingcheng also appeared at the top of the city. Seeing the excitement on the opposite side, everyone was a little stunned.

"What are they doing?" King Dingcheng was a little confused. "Are you planning to build this wooden frame to compete with us?"

Dayan Mangjiebo frowned. The Resentment Army always had a variety of tricks, as if every contact would lead to unexpected results.

"Don't be careless. The resentful army has endless tricks. Who knows what tricks they are planning to play?"

King Dingcheng shook his head and said: "Why don't we fight out? They only have five thousand troops, and we have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. We can attack with one drum!"

"Where is the Western Expedition Army?" Dayan Mangjiebo said with a speechless expression, "Aren't you afraid that as soon as we go out with the front foot, Qibi Heli's Western Expedition Army will come back with the rear foot?

Li Chengqian is a very cunning person. The reason why he put the resentful army in front and deliberately transferred the Western Expeditionary Army under our noses is probably to lure us out.

If my guess is correct, the Western Expeditionary Army will be ambushing not far away right now.

After all, if he really wanted to attack the city, not to mention the resentful army, even if all the soldiers and horses of the Ming court were here, he would not even be able to get close to the city without taking enough lives to fill them.

If you want to build such a strong city, you have to work hard. What kind of background does the Ming Dynasty have?"

This was the information gap. He didn't even know that the Western Expeditionary Army was fighting fiercely with his father Khan at the moment. How could he have the chance to come outside the city?

But speaking of it, Li Chengqian's move was very risky. Once Dayan Mangjiebo learned about the war in the north, he would definitely fight Li Chengqian at all costs.

King Dingcheng heard what he said. Although he nodded, he sighed with a distressed look on his face: "Hey, we have gone out so many to explore, but no one has come back. Otherwise, we can bring back some news."

"This is normal." Dayan Mangjiebo did not take it seriously and said, "Since Li Chengqian wants to lure us out of the city, he will naturally not let us know his combat deployment. In this regard, he will definitely not be careless.

As for King Xihai, there is no need to worry too much.

I know that Xi Tong's army is at most a few thousand strong, and the remaining tens of thousands are all a ruse by Murong Xiaojun.

Even if the army from Chuihe County goes north, won't there still be refugees from various tribes rushing in? Speaking of which, we still have the advantage in terms of military strength.

In other words, it is not convenient for Father Khan to send his troops southward for a while, otherwise, this time will definitely be the best time to regain the source of Chishui!

In the final analysis, our Tuyuhun national strength is still insufficient and we must always be on guard against the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, why would Li Chengqian show off his power in our Tuyuhun territory?"

Judging from the information he already knows and can make these judgments, this guy is really not a mediocre person.

It's just a pity that the information asymmetry prevented him from knowing that the situation in Shuihe City had already been turbulent.

If he really wants to lead his tens of thousands of troops out of the city at this juncture to engage in a life-and-death battle with Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian will probably kneel down...

"Your Highness, Prince, be careful!" As they were talking, a soldier hurriedly threw them to the ground.

As he spoke, bursts of rapid arrow rain rushed towards the city.

Dayan Mangjiebo was not frightened, but was a little dazed.

"How did their arrows come from so far away?" As he spoke, another shower of arrows fell on the city head like raindrops.

But the shot came through, but the power is really hard to compliment.

After all, it's still too far.

"Your Highness and Prince don't have to worry, this battle will only look like a bluff and won't hurt anyone." Immediately, a general said, and as he spoke, he knocked away an oncoming arrow with a single blow of his sword.

Dayan Mangjiebo stood up carefully and looked at the pillars on the top of the city. He saw that the arrows were barely nailed in, and even the arrowheads were still exposed.

With this power, it's really just tickling.

"The royal court of the Ming Dynasty is really rich and powerful..." Seeing this, King Dingcheng shook his head helplessly and said, "I know that this arrow has no lethality at all, but I still have to use it for a while. This is not a waste.

Is it a good thing?"

He was also quite speechless. Although this thing is indeed not lethal, you can't resist it forcefully.

For a time, the soldiers on the entire city were looking for bunkers to hide. Although this thing is not life-threatening most of the time, it is really disgusting.

"Perhaps Li Chengqian has run out of skills?" Dayan Mangjiebo said with a smile, "It's better to attack the city than to waste time all the time. As long as he attacks the city, the water outside the city will become the Ming Dynasty."

I want to see how many lives Li Chengqian has to fill this meat grinding ground for soldiers!"

No matter what methods Li Chengqian uses, as long as he attacks the city, Dayan Mangjiebo will be happy.

What he was most worried about was that Li Chengqian had been standing still. As long as Li Chengqian was standing still, he would not be able to move at all, but he had to always be on guard against whether Li Chengqian might cause another mischief.

Therefore, it is better to fight. As long as we fight, everything will become clearer.

Outside the city, Li Chengqian took a telescope to look at the effect of Wan Qipu and the others' arrow rain, and immediately shook his head: "Although the range is reached, the effect is too bad."

After he finished speaking, Wan Qi Pu touched his head in embarrassment. He did not expect that the effect of this rain of arrows would be so bad.

"Then we'll think of another solution."

"No, that's good." Li Chengqian said with a smile, "We don't really want to attack the city and just make them tired to deal with it. It's just a few arrows. Can't we still afford it?

Speaking of which, the arrows of this repeating crossbow are cheaper to manufacture than the arrows of a crossbow.

When we fight, we fight for our family’s wealth!

Although our foundation of the Ming Dynasty’s court cannot compare with anyone else’s, our family background is not weak either!

Just like this, I will send them a shower of arrows from time to time every day. If they are in a bad mood, I will send them a shower of arrows to greet them. I will make them unable to hold their heads up in a short period of time!"

"That's a good relationship!" When Wan Qipu heard this, he immediately became happy. This was the result he wanted!

Behind them, the refugees saw the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty standing in front of them with their flesh and blood, and they were all very energetic.

It's hard to say how they feel at the moment. In short, it's a feeling of being valued. This feeling is very refreshing, unprecedented!

"After living for a long time, I feel like I have become a human being at the end of my life." During a break from working, an elderly guy said this with emotion.

His words quickly resonated with everyone.
