Yandu clicked his tongue and ordered the soldiers to take more precautions, and did not follow Master Zhuo's advice.
Yan Du really overestimated Xun. At this time, the only people who were checking on the city wall were Jiang Wu, Arslan, Ning Xi, Huang Yan, Xun and Ning Wei. They walked around the city wall and couldn't see anything interesting. , then went back to the house to chat.
Ashina also stood in a safe place, looking at the people on the city wall. After looking around, he didn't seem to see anyone with a black face, and asked his lieutenant:
"Have you seen Mr. Zhuo?"
The deputy general shook his head:
"I heard that Master Zhuo wears black face, but these people on the city wall all have white faces. Could it be that Master Zhuo didn't come, but little Master Zhuo did?"
Ashina frowned. In addition to the arrival of Mr. Zhuo, there is another possibility, that is, no matter how big or small, only the flag came, because the flag with the word "Zhuo" also has a certain deterrent effect.
After thinking about it, Ashina rubbed his head irritably:
"Hey, it's so annoying!" He walked towards his tent and said to the deputy general, "Repair for a day and then attack the city tomorrow!"
Jiang Wu and others looked on the city wall and estimated that there were more than 20,000 people.
Ning Xi asked Jiang Wu puzzledly:
"Ashenayantu brought more than 20,000 people to attack us?"
Jiang Wu frowned and didn't answer. Huang Sui said:
"It can't be that we suffered too many losses when we attacked Qi."
Arslan looked at the two of them with disdain:
"Little boy!"
Just after saying this, a gust of wind blew over the dust raised by Ashina Yandu and the others. Ashlan took out a handkerchief from somewhere and held it with his thumb, index finger and middle finger, and held the other two hands. He raised his fingers, waved his handkerchief in disgust, and chased away the dust:
"Really, a bunch of barbarians! They made such a big dust! Can't you just walk slower? It's so annoying!"
Ning Xi and Huang Yan originally wanted to ask why he was such a young boy, but when they saw Arslan like this, they hunched their shoulders and slipped down the city wall. They might as well go ask Hyun, or wait until Arslan is gone. Jiang Wu.
Jiang Wu looked at Arslan, then walked up to him and asked:
"What do brothers Azlan think? Do you think they still have reinforcements?"
Arslan no longer waved the handkerchief at this time, but covered his mouth and said angrily:
"There should be reinforcements. They have come to attack us after they attacked Qi State. Some of their troops must have not returned to the Turks. It is said that there are as many as 200,000 troops attacking Qi State. Apart from the troops of Zhou Dynasty, there will be no more troops. There are probably 100,000 people. Even if there is a loss, when we return to Turks and come here again, there will definitely be 100,000 people again."
He looked down at the city wall.
After so many years of contact and study with the Han people, the nomadic army also has infantry, but it is still dominated by cavalry. Therefore, the city walls of the Tuxi tribe are not as strong as those of the Han people.
Arslan patted the city wall and looked at the Turkic garrison with some concern:
"Our Tuxi Department has really been stable for too long."
It's rare that Azilan doesn't have a mother, but Jiang Wu seems a little uncomfortable with it.
On the other side, Ashinayan said he would repair for a day, but he himself was not idle. He didn't know Master Zhuo would come before, so now he had to rethink his tactics. He discussed it with several generals for almost a day.
The figure of the sun slowly appears from the horizon, and a new day has arrived.
Because the Tuxi tribe was protected by the city wall, they did not take the initiative to provoke a battle. To initiate a battle would mean leaving the city wall. Facing such a powerful opponent as the Turks, Jiang Wu and Azlan could not do anything. To the extent that they underestimated the enemy, everyone was on the city wall preparing for battle.
Ashina Yandu didn't sleep well all night. Hearing noises in the camp, he got up and left the tent.
After each team was ready, Ashina nodded to several generals. The generals led the soldiers, raising a cloud of dust, and rushed to the border town of the Tuxi tribe. Ashina stood at the gate of the camp with his hands behind his hands, watching these Turks.
Warriors go to the battlefield.
On the city wall, the soldiers on lookout saw a cloud of dust rising not far away and shouted at the top of their lungs:
"The Turks are coming! The Turks are coming!"
Hearing the alarm, the soldiers hid behind the crenels and prepared for battle.
As the dust quickly approached, I felt an increasingly clear vibration under my feet.
Arslan feels it and says:
"Not all of them are dispatched."
Jiang Wu was stunned and looked at Arslan in surprise. During the battle, Arslan really turned into a lion, and he was also a lion holding back his anger. Even Jiang Wu felt that
Dangerous information coming from him.
Swallow your saliva:
"How did Brother Arslan know?"
Arslan looked at Jiang Wu like an idiot:
"With more than 20,000 horses running, can this be what it feels like?"
Then, he glanced at Jiang Wu very charmingly.
What kind of lion, what kind of arrogant lion, what kind of dangerous information, all disappeared with just one glance.
Jiang Wu sighed secretly:
Arslan is still the same Arslan.
Azilan is right. Yandu has not sent all its troops forward. It is not the time for a decisive battle yet. It has sent about 5,000 cavalry just to test the reality.
At any time, the Turkic army approached, and everyone estimated their approximate number. Ning Xi said to Jiang Wu:
"Ashina Yandu sent these people here to explore the truth, right? Do we want to fight them back?"
Jiang Wu carefully turned his head and observed the Turkic army from the crenel:
"Fight back? Master Zhuo often said that you have to learn to play pig and eat tiger. If you suddenly become too strong, they will stop coming. What should you do if you try to attack from other aspects? You have to lure them to attack here only."
Azilan was still thinking about what it meant to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, when Jiang Wu bumped into him:
"Brother Arslan's archery skills are very good. I have to ask Brother Arslan for something."
The Turks have cooperated with the Zhou Dynasty and fought with the Qi State. The predecessors of these two countries are the Northern Wei Dynasty. Therefore, the Turks know how powerful the crossbows are and how strong they can survive on the battlefield. The generals who led the troops to charge also
Watch each crenel very carefully.
They also bought some crossbows from Da Zhou. This time they brought a few to experience them in actual combat. If they are good, they will buy them from Da Zhou again. Several generals touched the crossbows on their backs.
Get ready to show off your skills.
The army was still rushing forward. After entering the range of the siege crossbow, a general led the team to stop, parked the carriage pulling the siege crossbow at a suitable location, and then attacked the city wall, nailing the crossbow arrows into it one by one.
On the city wall, these crossbow arrows not only attack the city wall, but also build a way for the soldiers behind to climb the city.
The soldiers of Kunyu Kingdom on the city wall were dumbfounded when their crossbow arrows hit the wall.
Jiang Wu looked at the crenel, then patted the wall, and looked at Azilan with wide eyes:
"Your city wall is cutting corners! It's absolutely cutting corners!"
Arslan glanced at him charmingly again, said nothing, and tilted her head to look outside.
