Chapter 287: Assemble people and prepare to attack the city

Xu Huang could not believe it. Liu Zheng built twenty treble machines in three days.

However, he clearly saw that Liu Zheng had done nothing a few days ago and had not built any trenchers at all, but in just a few days, he transformed twenty trenchers out of thin air.

This made Xu Huang feel extremely surprised. He walked into Liu Zheng's trenchers, lifted up the branches covering them, and looked at the trenchers roughly, and looked even more confused.

Because the catapult created by Liu Zheng is very different from him. Both the appearance and the projection method are almost completely different.

The catapult made by Xu Huang also has some catapults, while the catapults on Liu Zheng’s side really don’t look like catapults. Not only is the whole reminder not too big, but even the projection method requires some bowstring guidance.

Rather than talking about the catapult, it is more like a large crossbow.

Xu Huang looked here for a while, frowned and observed Liu Zheng's trespassers carefully. Then, with deep doubts in his eyes, he couldn't help but ask Liu Zheng.

"Lord, are you sure the thing you created is called a trencher? You might have deliberately made something to fool me in order to win me with me."

"What? Don't believe me, right?"

Liu Zheng turned his head and looked at Xu Huang. Although Xu Huang had doubts about his things, Liu Zheng himself did not doubt anything. On the contrary, he was very confident in his trencher and would only be stronger than the human trenchers built by Xu Huang.

"It's not that I don't believe you, but the thing you made doesn't look like a catapult. Can you really break the gate of Xianglin City by relying on him? If it can't be opened, the promise we made before in front of Fan Xiong is a slap in the face."

Xu Huang was still worried about Liu Zheng's previous words.

But Liu Zheng was not worried at all, but was very calm.

"Don't worry, with him, I'm 100% sure that I can break through the gate of Xianglin City!"

"If you don't believe it, you will soon know that you will definitely lose the bet between us!"

Xu Huang looked at Liu Zheng's catapults with suspicion, but it was only the ninth day. Although the ten-day appointment was not yet reached, Liu Zheng had already pulled out all the catapults. Obviously, he planned to start siege today.

At this time, Fan Xiong, who had been patrolling the city tower in Xianglin City, often appeared here because of his worries.

At this moment, Fan Xiong saw Liu Zhengjun, who had been in the forbidden foreign country, began to gather gradually, and seemed to have a plan to attack again. The worries and fears that had been around these days finally began to become even more nervous.

He hurriedly walked around the battlements and observed what changes were happening over Liu Zheng.

"Deputy General, are there any movements between the soldiers of those great men these days?"

Fan Xiong has not been patrolling the city tower for a long time. Although he occasionally observes the situation on Liu Zheng's side, he does not look at the movements on Liu Zheng carefully, so he also wants to ask the deputy general directly and get the news from the deputy general.

The deputy general has been observing the enemy on the city tower recently, guarding against Liu Zhengjun's sudden attack on the city. So he is very familiar with the situation outside the city. When Fan Xiong asked, he immediately started talking to Fan Xiong.

"Go back to Your Majesty, the great Han officials outside the city have not made much noise these days, and they have not even seen reinforcements. It is just that some people left outside the city and cut down a lot of wood from the forest in the distance to outside the city."

“A lot of wood was cut down?”

"Well, they piled up the wood together, and didn't know what they were doing. It seemed that they were making some siege tools."

Although I don’t understand what Liu Zheng and the others are doing, based on my intuition, the deputy general believes that Liu Zheng and others are preparing for the siege.

After all, Liu Zheng boasted about Haikou and said that he would break the city within ten days, and it was impossible for him to be prepared for nothing.

After hearing the deputy general's words, Fan Xiong was not so panicked.

"It's no wonder. After all, Liu Zheng said he wanted to attack Xianglin City. How could he capture Xianglin City without making some preparations? He went to make siege equipment. I was not worried. The wall of my target Lincheng is confident and not so easy to break. I have been to Jiaozhi County. The height of our Xianglin City is higher than that of the capital in Jiaozhou, and it is not so easy to break."

Liu Zheng's actions show that Liu Zheng is preparing and not doing nothing. If Liu Zheng does nothing and is so calm, Fan Xiong will feel terrible.

Just as Fan Xiong appeared on the city tower, Liu Zheng's men had also gathered together at this time.

Liu Zheng looked at the city tower from afar, then saw Fan Xiong at first sight, and immediately shouted loudly at the city tower.

"Fan Xiong, today is the ninth day!"

Fan Xiong didn't expect Liu Zheng to call him at this time. He turned his head, looked away from his deputy general, and looked at Liu Zheng under the city.

After pondering for a while, Fan Xiong still responded to Liu Zheng under the city.

"Liu Zheng, do you know that it's already the ninth day? There is still one day. If you can't break my Xianglin City, do you really want to withdraw your troops?"

Fan Xiong is still unwilling to compete head-on with Liu Zheng's troops, hoping that he can survive these days, and then Liu Zheng withdrew his troops as he wishes, allowing the crisis to be resolved in this way.

But Liu Zheng did not follow what he thought, but spoke at Fan Xiong in a playful tone.

"Yes, there is still one day, but I can't wait. I don't want to wait until the tenth day to break the city. Today, while you are on the city tower, I will let you see with your own eyes how I broke through your Xianglin City!"

Liu Zheng said one sentence, Fan Xiong's face, who was not so worried just now, changed suddenly and became nervous immediately.

However, he still had confidence in his city walls and did not believe that Liu Zheng could break the city in such a short time.

"Hmph, don't talk nonsense. If you have the ability, come in and try your best to verbally!"

Fan Xiong replied coldly, wanting to see if Liu Zheng really plans to attack the city.

When Liu Zheng saw Fan Xiong talking like this, he naturally stopped talking, but immediately spoke at Xu Huang.

"General Xu Huang, start preparing to attack the city!"

"Yes, lord, Wenpin! Convene people!"
