Chapter 190
As night fell, the Qiguan city stretched for more than ten miles, full of soldiers from the Southern Barbarians.

Looking at the densely packed human heads, Shangguan Qiuyu's scalp felt numb. He jumped a long distance and saw a large army of Southern barbarian soldiers, but there was no shelter.

All of them sat on the ground, leaning on each other, and some even ignored the coldness of the ground, and directly lay their corpses on the ground, which made Shangguan Qiuyu happy to see it.

Because Nanman was too eager to chase his cheap grandfather this time, he never thought that Qiguan would be captured by himself and others, so the Nanman army didn't bring anything.

It can only sit on the ground and rest, if it is not for the southern weather, the temperature difference between night and day is not large, and it will not have much impact on the soldiers.

If it was changed to the north, the combat effectiveness of the Nanman army would be reduced due to the weather in one night.

At this time, Shangguan Qiuyu couldn't help but pray to the heavens, if there was a heavy rain at this time, it would be perfect.

After a day of hard work, the Nanman soldiers were already exhausted, but they didn't have the energy to attack Qiguan immediately.

The leaders of the Nanman also understood this truth, so they did not immediately order their subordinates to attack, but planned to rest for a night.

Wait until the army regains its strength tomorrow, and then attack Qiguan. After all, if you want the horse to run, you must feed the horse enough grass.

If a group of exhausted clansmen were to attack Qiguan immediately at this time, not only would it not have much effect, but it would only increase casualties.

Of course, the leaders of the Nanman also defended against Shangguan Qiuyu at the same time, and now their millions of troops are already exhausted due to the day-to-day battle and endless tossing and turning.

If Shangguan Qiuyu sent people to attack at night, he would suffer heavy losses.

If he and the others were unprepared, then this kind of thing would happen nine out of ten, so the Nanman Marshal Halba specially arranged for a large army to rest under the city of Qiguan.

Waiting for Shangguan Qiuyu to fall into the trap, of course, if Shangguan Qiuyu doesn't accept this trick, they will be equally happy.

Shangguan Qiuyu saw a group of Nanman soldiers swaggering and sleeping under Qiguan City. At first, he really wanted to sneak attack Nanman at night.

However, he soon noticed something was wrong, because not far from Qiguan City, there was a Nanman army of about 30.

Although they were the same as other Southern barbarian soldiers, they also sat and rested on the ground in a disorderly manner.

But upon careful observation, it was possible to find that they were different from other Southern barbarian soldiers.

This Southern barbarian army is composed of several people sitting together, facing the direction of Qiguan, holding weapons tightly in their hands, obviously, they are always vigilant.

Soon, Shangguan Qiuyu recognized what kind of army this nearly 30 Southern barbarian soldiers were.
Shangguan Qiuyu, the most elite Vulcan army in the Nanban, had dealt with them earlier, so he naturally wouldn't admit his mistake. It was obvious that Nanmen deliberately arranged them there.

The intention was to tell Shangguan Qiuyu not to think about attacking the Nanman army at night, and secondly, if he went, he would also encounter the Vulcan army.

With the Vulcan army blocking the front, it was able to buy enough reaction time for the Nanman army.At that time, it will be uncertain who will attack who.

Seeing this, Shangguan Qiuyu directly dismissed the sneak attack strategy, but the Nanman people wanted to recharge their spirits so that they could attack the city tomorrow.

How could he, Shangguan Qiuyu, be so kind to let them refresh themselves, and after they had enough rest, they would attack him tomorrow?

So, Shangguan Qiuyu immediately said to Han Qinghu beside him:

"Is there a big drum in the pass?"

Han Qinghu at the side knew what he was going to do when he heard that Shangguan Qiuyu wanted a big drum, and immediately said with a hey smile:

"Yes, and there are many more. I will send someone to bring them all."

Soon, Han Qinghu sent people to move hundreds of big drums to the city wall.

"Major General, I brought you all the drums you asked for." Han Qinghu pointed to the hundreds of drums and said.

Shangguan Qiuyu looked at those washbasin-sized drums, couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and said angrily:
"Keep the big ones and take all the others."

Immediately, he asked Tie Yi beside him:

"Cotton cloth is enough, have you distributed it to the soldiers?"

"There is still more, my subordinates asked Tie Wei and the others to send them to the soldiers one by one." Tie Yiyi said.

"Well, come out with a team of iron guards and let them beat the big drum neatly. In the middle of the night, let's give the Nanman soldiers under the city a hard time. I will make the Nanman soldiers under the city not sleep well tonight.

By the way, is there anyone in the army who knows the Nanban tune? "Shangguan Qiuyu asked suddenly.

At this time, he suddenly thought of the story of Farewell My Concubine, who was surrounded by enemies, and immediately wanted to play this kind of drama.

However, as soon as he said it, he immediately realized that something was wrong. Thinking of Farewell My Concubine, the premise of being besieged on all sides was because the overlord Xiang Yu was surrounded by Liu Bang, and he had reached the end of his rope.

In order to make Xiang Yu's men surrender, they ordered people to play Chu Yin, which aroused Xiang Jun's homesickness, thus disintegrating their psychological defense.

But now he is the one who is surrounded, and he is also the one who is in greater danger, if he plays a Nanban tune now.

It aroused the homesickness of those barbarians, and the millions of troops returned home like an arrow, but their way back was just blocked by themselves.

At that time, I'm afraid it will have the opposite effect, making the soldiers of the southern barbarians work harder when attacking themselves.

Although Shangguan Qiuyu and others now occupy the danger of Qiguan, there is still a huge gap in the face of the Nanman soldiers who are ten times the enemy.

If the millions of southern barbarian soldiers became ruthless and completely disregarded their own lives, even if Shangguan Qiuyu brought all the elite, there might not be many left when he brought his cheap grandfather to help.

"Well, Major General, I'm afraid there are no soldiers in the army who know the tunes of the Southern Man.

And~" As he said that, Han Qinghu didn't continue to speak, he paused there, but he didn't know whether he should continue to speak the rest of the words.

"Hehe, but I didn't think carefully, General Wang Han forgive me." Shangguan Qiuyu said with a slightly embarrassed face.

He naturally knew what Han Qinghu wanted to say next, but he stopped there and didn't say anything because he cared about Shangguan Qiuyu's face.

"Don't dare," Han Qinghu said hastily.

Han Qinghu admired Shangguan Qiuyu's outspoken character.Generally speaking, if it is someone else's disciple.

When encountering such a thing, he would definitely respond with silence, and would never speak it out so generously like Shangguan Qiuyu.

"Look, major general, if you want to take a rest, just watch the future here."

Shangguan Qiuyu shook his head and said:
"No, until the southern barbarian soldiers under the city are not completely dealt with, I will keep guarding the top of the city."

How could he rest in peace with millions of Nanban troops under the city?Instead of this, it is better to be directly on the tower.

One is, it can make him feel at ease, and the other is that it can let the soldiers on the top of the city see his figure, which can play a certain role in boosting morale.
