Chapter 405: Ye Hua
"Han people, you are provoking the eagle on the grassland!"
The grassland people worship the goshawk. In their view, these Han people are weak and easy to bully.
Now that he was shouting here, the other party actually turned a blind eye and started chatting and laughing instead. Suddenly he became furious and roared again and again.
Lu Chensheng glanced at the man below and frowned.
"Why, you're just talking talk? If you want to attack the city, just do it. Let's see if you can climb up and talk."
Lu Chensheng looked at this man with disdain.
Although Niu Colu Shouting could not see Lu Chensheng's face clearly, he could clearly hear the contempt in Lu Chensheng's tone.
Suddenly he was furious.
It's just that he came here with his cavalry, and there is no siege ladder at the moment. It is completely impossible to attack the city now.
"Back three miles and camp on the spot!"
After all, Niu Gulu was not stunned by Lu Chensheng's anger. His chest rose and fell for a while before he waved and shouted.
At this moment, he was still waiting for the siege ladder to be delivered. Originally, he didn't even think about asking the other party to open the city gate with just one word.
But in his opinion, it is also very simple to capture a city outside the wall.
Lu Chensheng looked at this scene and raised his eyebrows slightly. This guy was somewhat sensible and did not attack the city impulsively.
But that's right, how can the opponent attack the city if they don't even have the equipment to attack the city?
"In the evening, give each other some surprises."
Lu Chensheng looked at the retreating Tatars and said something to Bai Yi.
Bai Yi was stunned when he heard this, "A surprise attack out of the city? I'm afraid that the other party is on guard, so it's not easy to succeed."
"There is no need for a surprise attack. Just beat the war drum a few times for the opponent. When the opponent is sleeping soundly, knocking it a few times will be enough to make the opponent distressed."
Bai Yi immediately understood what Lu Chensheng was going to do. The other party was sleeping outside, so his nerves were naturally tense.
If you do this several times, it will definitely make the other party miserable.
In this way, the opponent's combat effectiveness can be weakened.
Seeing that the other party had no plans to attack the city today, Lu Chensheng walked around and then climbed down the city wall.
At night.
After sending some people to watch the night, Niu Gulu Shouting looked sad. Although he had not yet started to attack the city, he already thought that this time the battle would not be so easy.
I thought he was just a fat guy, but he turned out to be a tough nut to crack.
If I had known this earlier, wouldn't it be better to give up this job and go south to rob those people easily?
He felt regretful in his heart, but there was really nothing he could do at this moment.
Except for the patrolling soldiers, everyone else had already gone to bed, and just when the moon was in the middle, a dull drum beat sounded, and then there was a cry of killing.
Everyone who had been sleeping suddenly woke up. In a hurry, they grabbed the knife beside them and started to chop at the people next to them.
"You are crazy, I am your tribe!"
The person next to him yelled angrily in Manchu. He was more sensible and scolded him after blocking the blow with a knife.
After listening to Manchu's words, the people around him immediately relaxed their vigilance and turned to look outside, but there was no light at all.
Such a scene immediately made him suspicious, what was going on?
If there are no enemies, where did the drum sound just come from?
Niu Gulu Shouting also woke up with a start, turned over and quickly called the guards outside.
The guard took some time to figure out the situation and quickly reported it.
"The Han people were cunning, beating drums and shouting troops outside, and then retreated into the city."
Hearing this, Niu Gulu Shouting breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that there was no night attack.
Just now, he almost thought that the other party had invaded the position.
Without any preparation, you may suffer heavy losses.
"Let people inform the public about the news, so that all the men can feel at ease. The Han people are cunning and will only use such unsavory tricks."
Niu Gulu Shouting waved his hand and spoke.
When the guard heard this, he quickly responded and comforted him.
And after another stick of incense, everyone had just fallen asleep, and suddenly there were shouts of killing again.
Everyone was so shocked that they stood up and prepared to kill the enemy.
It was only after they got up to figure out the situation that they realized it was another false alarm.
Niu Gulu Shouting realized that he was being teased again and screamed in anger.
However, no one showed up, and he had no way to pursue him in the dark night.
Repeatedly, the Niu Gulu clan had some insomnia.
At this moment, the soldiers on the city wall were eating.
The night vigil was still very tiring, Lu Chensheng specially asked people to let them eat something late at night, not only to fill their stomachs, but also to refresh themselves.
Looking at the Niu Gulu clan outside the city at the lights in the distance, there was a burst of noise from time to time, and everyone suddenly burst into laughter.
I have probably never seen such a situation, but seeing such a scene, I still feel very happy.
The laughter spread far away, but it was a pity that the Niu Gulu tribe in the distance could not hear it, otherwise they would definitely be furious.
The city wall is very high, and the guards on the wall can hear the drums and other sounds outside.
But people in the city couldn't hear it, so it didn't affect the rest of the people in the city.
When the night passed, everyone in the Niugulu clan felt exhausted when they woke up.
It would be okay if they were physically exhausted, but the mental torture made them miserable.
Later in the night, several tribesmen got excited and even chopped down the tribesmen on the side.
The battle hadn't even started yet, but there were already wounded on his side. This news made Niu Gulu Shouting look extremely ugly.
"Send someone to immediately supervise the arrival of the baggage, as well as the food and fodder!"
When attacking a city, you still need to carry food and grass. The food and grass are made by letting the herdsmen drive some cattle and sheep. These livestock are quite convenient as food and grass.
All it takes is some herdsmen to drive it, and it’s pretty fast.
Upon hearing this, the guard immediately rode over to urge him.
When Lu Chensheng got up, he saw someone coming to report the situation.
The beating of drums all night only made the Niu Gulu clan mentally exhausted. When they woke up today, they all looked listless.
Lu Chensheng's soldiers, on the other hand, ate well and slept well.
After hearing that Tatars were coming, the people in the city were calmed down after the initial panic.
There is a lot of food in the city, and with such a high wall, it won't be a problem as long as it can be defended for a few months.
After a few months, when the ice and snow fell, the Tatars had no choice but to retreat, or else they would freeze to death.
Therefore, the people, who were panicked at the beginning, calmed down again.
Chapter completed!
