Iron Dynasty

Back, back!

Looking at the slave soldiers scattered like a tide from the top of the city, many soldiers shouted excitedly.

The corner of Niu Ben's mouth raised a smile, and he said, Your Highness, the artillery has scared the enemy.

It was the first time I saw this kind of unprovoked weapon, and it was normal to be afraid at first, but after they became familiar with it, it was the real bloody battle. Xiao Ming said.

Niu Ben nodded silently, unable to deny.

Up to now, they have basically been in contact with slave soldiers, and have not really fought against the barbarians, who are the main force in this war.

They have been using slave soldiers to consume Qingzhou Army soldiers, ammunition, and defensive supplies.

His Royal Highness, the powder cans and artillery should be used at the last minute, I'm worried... Niu Ben hesitated and said.

This is also what Xiao Ming is thinking about. So far, the barbarians have not been dispatched. If the powder cans and shells are exhausted at this time, the last moment will be really difficult.

Because this time is similar to Tian Ji's horse racing, the barbarians have been using the inferior soldiers to consume his superior soldiers.

Stop shooting!

At this time, Xiao Ming shouted.

Excited by the power of the artillery, Lu Fei walked over inexplicably and said, Your Highness, why is this? It's hard to make these savage soldiers suffer.

Xiao Ming ignored him, but looked at Luo Xin, How many powder cans and shells are left?

Luo Xin was in a state of excitement. Hearing this, he felt a chill behind his back. He said, There are still more than 1,500 gunpowder pots left, and 2,300 shells left.

Lu Fei understood what Xiao Ming meant at this time, and he stamped his feet depressedly, This is true for Chen Wenlong and Chen Qi, why can't we prepare more, what should we do now? Only these slave soldiers can put the powder cans and The shells are exhausted.

The Huihui Cannon has been destroyed. From now on, the powder cans and artillery can be saved. The time is short, and the equipment department cannot prepare too much ammunition. Now we have to delay. Xiao Ming analyzed.

Niu Ben nodded and said: Yes, the barbarians travel long distances, and the logistics of this food and grass is much more troublesome than ours, and there are many of them, but there are countless food and grass to eat every day, this Huyantuo tribe must be eaten. There are no bones left, and we are just as the wheat is ripe, and this large quantity of forage will arrive soon, and the more time passes, the more artillery and shells we will have.

Lu Fei and Luo Xin nodded, and Lu Fei said, But the barbarians probably won't give us any time to delay.

The four were talking when suddenly a sharp arrow flew over from the barbarian camp.

At the head of the city, the arrow was obviously weak in the follow-up. Niu Ben moved quickly and only grabbed the arrow in his hand.

Your Highness, there is a letter on it. Niu Ben said.

Xiao Ming glanced at the barbarian cavalry who turned back and said, Take it apart and see.

Niu Ben took down the letter, glanced at it and handed it to Xiao Ming: The opposite is indeed Taiji Beishan from the barbarian tribe, and he is persuading His Highness to surrender.

In his heart, Bei Shan wrote: I read the friendship between the Great Yu Kingdom and the Golden Horde for many years, and I don’t want to see Cangzhou City being ruined. If the King of Qi is willing to surrender, Bentaiji can guarantee His Highness and safety. A does not stay.

Hahaha, this Bei Shan is quite interesting. In this case, who wants to go out of the city to negotiate with the barbarians. Xiao Ming suddenly said.

Hearing this, Lu Fei was immediately annoyed, and he said angrily: Your Highness is going to be the thief who surrendered, and I, Lu Fei, were the first to refuse!

Xiao Ming, I really misunderstood you. It's a loss that I have come all the way from Chang'an to defect to you. Now that the victory is in hand, but you have to surrender, I will not agree! Luo Xin said angrily.

Niu Ben sighed, You two idiots, don't you understand what it means to slow down troops?

Xiao Ming shook his head helplessly, when he saw Zhan Xingchang standing in front of him, Zhan Xingchang said, Your Highness, it seems that I am the only one who is suitable to go.

You really want to go, Bei Shan's temperament is fickle, you may go here and never return. Xiao Ming said.

Zhan Xingchang's expression was light, and he said, Food for the emperor's salary, loyalty to the emperor, fear of the head and tail, not a husband!

Only at the moment of crisis can one see the quality of a person. Zhan Xingchang's thin body suddenly became taller in Xiao Ming's eyes.

Lu Fei and Luo Xin already understood at this time, and they all cast an admiring look at Zhan Xingchang, Lu Fei said: Zhan Sima, I have offended many things in the past, I hope you forgive me, but I didn't expect you to be a real man.

Zhan Xingchang folded his fists and said, It's all for His Highness. You guys go to battle to kill the enemy. I'm just showing off.

He then turned to Xiao Ming, It's not too late, Your Highness should let me out of the city.

This time, Xiao Ming just wanted to fool Bei Shan, so this matter was very dangerous. He nodded and patted Zhan Xingchang on the shoulder.

At this time, Niu Ben asked someone to take a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Xiao Ming also wrote a letter, saying that surrender is okay, but it is necessary to negotiate and clarify the conditions of surrender.

Using the same method, Niu Ben used a bow and arrow to shoot the letter out.

In the barbarian camp, Bei Shan had a gloomy face, and the power of the artillery and powder cans was vivid in his eyes.

After this retreat, the morale of the slave soldiers plummeted.

Although the barbarian soldiers continued to shoot and kill the scattered slave soldiers, they were still unable to resist the rout.

This made them have to renovate before they could attack again. At this time, his experience in dealing with the countries in the Western Regions made him decide to persuade him to surrender.

Although he himself did not believe that he would surrender when the Cangzhou defenders had the upper hand, he was still idle, and he would never give up any opportunity.

Only when the letter of persuasion to surrender was sent, he suddenly found that the artillery fire at the head of the city had suddenly stopped.

After a while, the scout delivered a letter.

Negotiation! Bei Shan's expression was brilliant, King Qi actually agreed to surrender.

Hearing this, Liu Xuan was almost dumbfounded, which was completely beyond his comprehension. He said, Taiji, this King Qi is insidious and cunning. I'm afraid this is a plan to delay troops.

Bei Shan smiled, It's natural, it doesn't matter if it's not, everyone is a plan to slow down.

After a pause, he said to Guertai: Take advantage of the night tonight, we must blow up the city wall.

Yes. Guertai said.

During these several attacks, his slave soldiers suffered heavy losses. Although he was reluctant, he did not dare to disobey Bei Shan's orders at this time.

There are quite a few flag leaders who were beheaded by this Beishantaiji for disobeying orders on the battlefield.

After waiting for a while, Bei Shan saw a man descending from the city wall of Cangzhou City, who was probably an envoy.

Bei Shan said to Liu Xuan at this time: You Han people know the Han people best, so you can handle this matter. If King Qi really surrenders, you will come and find me.
