Chapter 377

The next day, when the sky was dimming, bursts of war drums rang out from the Beiliang military camp, immediately alerting the entire Longhanguan garrison.

After a while, the Longhan Pass defenders were all over the city. They looked nervously at the soldiers of Beiliang who were pouring out of the barracks in the distance.

The chief general of the Jin army, Tuohamu, also personally climbed up to the top of the city and looked at the outside of the city with a solemn face. This was the biggest movement in the Beiliang army's siege for so many days.

The deputy general whispered from the side: "General, I am afraid that the Beiliang Army is going to attack the city with this posture."

"Is there any news from Tanzhou City? Are there any reinforcements coming?" Tuohamu asked.

The deputy general smiled bitterly: "Since the Beiliang Army besieged the city, we have never received any military orders from Tanzhou. None of the scouts we sent have returned. I'm afraid all of them have died long ago."

Tuohamu lowered his head and said nothing. The deputy general was a little nervous: "Are there any reinforcements? The combat power of the Beiliang Army is extraordinary."

Tuohamu clenched his fists slightly, took a deep breath and said, "What are you afraid of! Even if there are no reinforcements, we still have 20,000 defenders in the city. Their troops want to eat us is a fantasy!"

Tuohamu's voice rose a lot, as if he was forcibly cheering himself up.

"But those red-headed soldiers are really... hard to use." The deputy general's voice was slightly lowered.

The meaning of the words is self-evident, and it is obvious that he does not trust the red-headed soldier's fighting ability.

Tuohamu glanced at the red-headed soldiers not far away with a cold face, holding their weapons tightly, and said disdainfully: "With us supervising the battle, they can only move forward desperately!"

While the two were talking, a huge war drum sounded.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Thousands of infantrymen from the Beiliang siege army rushed out first. The front row was guarded by soldiers holding shields. Behind them, the Beiliang army held bows and crossbows, and everyone walked steadily.

After the infantry, there were two cavalrymen, one white and one red, parading around. Tuohamu was dazzled by the two completely different military uniforms.

After reaching the range of the crossbows, the Beiliang army stopped.

As a general raised his arm slightly, the sound of pulling a bow string sounded one after another, and the arrow curved diagonally upward.

"put!"

A roar of anger rang out from the army, and then an overwhelming barrage of arrows shot into the city, as densely packed as locusts.

Tuohamu's eyes turned cold and he did not move at all. The surrounding soldiers held up their shields and surrounded the general, blocking him from the wind.

"Dang Dang Dang!"

A crisp sound came, and Tohamu frowned under the shield. There was something wrong with the sound. It didn't sound like the sound of a fine iron arrow piercing the shield. It was a bit low.

Arrows fell into the city one after another for a long time.

When the shield above Tuohamu's head was removed, a strange scene appeared in the eyes of the general of Longhanguan.

No soldiers were injured as far as the eye could see, and no wailing was heard. This massive arrow-feather offensive seemed to have caused no casualties to the defenders.

"What's going on?" Tuohamu was confused.

Tuohamu's eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of an arrow that fell on the ground in front of him. He frowned and picked up the black arrow.

Seeing that the arrowhead of the feather arrow was blunt rather than sharp, Tuohamu murmured: No wonder the sound of the arrow hitting the shield was a little low.

There was a white strip of cloth tied at the tail of the arrow. Tuohamu felt confused and slowly spread the strip of cloth. The text on it made his face instantly gloomy:

Fellow red-headed soldiers in Longhan Pass, stop working for the Jin people. They regard your lives as nothing. How have they ever looked at you?

The Jin people killed the people of Liaodong and robbed Liaodong's money. You all saw it one after another. Don't you have hatred against the country and the family in your hearts?

Although some of you have helped the emperor do evil, I believe that more of you in Beiliang are just doing it to make a living.

But if you wear that red scarf, you will be scolded by the people of Liaodong for the rest of your life. Your family, your descendants and grandchildren will not be able to hold their heads up for generations. One day when Liaodong is restored, you may not even be able to enter your ancestral graves. Is this really what you think?

Did you see that?

Put down your weapons and stop resisting stubbornly. Don’t you want to stand up and be human on the day when Liaodong is liberated?

Golden man and dog thief! The day Longhanguan broke the city was the time when I built the capital in Beiliang!

After reading this paragraph, Tuohamu's hands kept shaking with anger. For some reason, a panic spread from the bottom of his heart.

"General!" The deputy general strode to Tuohamu's side, holding a dozen feather arrows in his hand, and said solemnly: "There is such a note on every feather arrow. What exactly does Beiliang want to do?"

Tuohamu's eyes swept across the tower and found many red-headed soldiers looking blankly at the note, huddled together in twos and threes, and the literate soldiers were whispering the contents of the note.

"Immediately send someone to collect all the cloth. Anyone who dares to hide it secretly will be killed!" Tuohamu said through gritted teeth.

"No!" the deputy general left quickly.

A large number of golden soldiers were dispatched and fiercely snatched the cloth strips from the hands of the red-headed soldiers. Most of the red-headed soldiers did not dare to resist. A very few quietly stuffed the cloth strips into their sleeves without anyone noticing.

The crossbow camp outside the city did not stop there. It still stayed outside the pass and fired a wave of arrows into the city every once in a while.

Tuohamu ordered a counterattack, but found that many red-headed soldiers' hands holding arrows became hesitant.

In addition, Beiliang's crossbows were modified by the Mo family, and their range was a hundred strides beyond the Jinbing crossbows. No matter how angry Tuohamu was, he couldn't repel the bow camp.

This situation lasted for two full days. Not only were there arrows shot in during the day, but there were also people from the Beiliang Army shouting outside the city at night, which disturbed the peace of Longhang Pass.

The content of the slogan is naturally what is written on the banner.

Tuoham found that the red-headed soldiers guarding the city were getting more and more weird in the past two days. From a distance, he could always see red-headed soldiers gathering together to discuss something, but whenever he showed up, those people dispersed one after another.

A strange atmosphere shrouded the entire Longhan Pass.

Late at night, Beiliang Army Camp

Several generals were sitting one after another, with a little smile on their brows.

"General Zuo is very good at attacking people's hearts. I wonder if the red-headed soldiers in the city can be mobilized?" Yan Hongyi laughed at the side.

"General Yan's praise is too early." Zuoqiu said very modestly: "I don't know if it has any effect, but at least the Jin people of the Mengmeng family are suspicious!"

Chu Yucheng also held the same cloth strip in his hand. This cloth strip was a sharp weapon to provoke the relationship between the golden soldiers and the red-headed soldiers in the city.

"Chu Duhu, we have been waiting for two days, should we make a move?" Li Batian was gearing up.

Chu Yucheng tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and after a moment he looked at Li Batian: "Let the 10,000 infantrymen including the first camp start attacking the city tomorrow to put some pressure on the defenders in the city, and also try the red-headed soldiers.

reaction!"

"promise!"

Li Batian and Cao Wenzhao both stood up at the same time to drink.
