Chapter 172: Bloody battlefield

In the early morning, plumes of cooking smoke floated in the city of Cangzhou.
Had it not been for the soldiers running back and forth in the city, Xiao Ming even suspected that he had returned to the mountain village of his childhood.
But after living here for a while, for him, everything here is just like the countryside.
In the past, he always thought that the ancient royal family lived like on TV. Only when he came here did he discover that the royal food was similar to modern ordinary people.
This is not a matter of shortage of materials, but the level of technology here.
Xiao Ming didn't sleep last night, facing a large-scale cold weapon war, he was not strong enough to look like a okay person.
After eating a bowl of rice porridge and meatloaf from Luluo, he put on a tailor-made armor and boarded the city wall.
At this time, all the soldiers were on guard on the city wall, and many people in the city gathered under the city wall, ready to help at any time.
The news from Luo Xin and Lu Fei last night meant that the first wave of attack in Cangzhou City was coming soon.
"His Royal Highness, here comes!"
Before noon, the sky was floating like a black cloud, and it was black and black. At this moment, Niu Ben pointed to the north and said to Xiao Ming.
Picking up the telescope, Xiao Ming looked over, and through the enlarged image, he saw a large swath of barbarian cavalry.
Lu Fei and Luo Xin immediately went to their positions.
Because the area of ​​the city wall is very long, there is a school lieutenant in charge of each distance, and Niu Ben is responsible for the control of the entire battle.
"Our trap is probably useless." Putting down the telescope, Xiao Ming sighed.
Standing by his side, Zhan Xingchang, he was also using binoculars to observe, "The barbarians drive so many slaves ahead, our trap is about to end."
Before the barbarian cavalry, they were slaves with ropes. These slaves had the same appearance as the people of Da Yu, and they were once the people of Da Yu.
Niu Ben said: "This is nothing. The barbarians will definitely use slaves to rush into the battle before attacking. Your Highness, you can't be soft-hearted at this time. They are indeed the people of Great Yu, but you are also the people of Great Yu. ."
"It was because of Emperor Yong's relentless heart that Shanhaiguan let these expelled people enter the city before the battle. As a result, I never thought that some of these slaves were already willing to become barbarian eagle dogs. This actually led to the seizure of the city gate and the barbarian cavalry. ." Niu Ben continued.
Xiao Ming nodded lightly. There have been countless examples of this in wars throughout the ages.
The barbarian cavalry is getting closer and closer, one thousand meters, eight hundred meters, and five hundred meters.
Finally at a distance of five hundred meters, the barbarian cavalry stopped, the battlefield was silent, and the guards of the city would be the cavalry fixed on the barbarian.
The barbarian cavalry also fixed their eyes on the soldiers in silver armor in the city.
The two sides faced each other for a while, and a loud horn suddenly came from the barbarian formation. At this time, the barbarian cavalry suddenly dismounted, and the driven slaves were skilled in taking all kinds of things from their horses.
"They are camping on the spot." Niu Ben said at this time.
The Huyantuo tribe is a purely nomadic tribe. Wherever the cattle and sheep go, they are the resident. This time the Huyantuo tribe brought slaves and drove the cattle and sheep.
"It seems that the barbarians are preparing to besiege Cangzhou City."
Xiao Ming looked at the artillery wrapped in black cloth on the city wall. The artillery he produced this time had a range of three to four miles. At this time, the distance where the barbarians were stationed was within range.
One shot can definitely hit them on their backs, but no matter how itching is in their heart, they have to hold back.
Because the real important role has not yet appeared, if the profuse sweat of the barbarian really appears, then it will be the time when the artillery fires.
The barbarians camped leisurely, and the soldiers on the city could only watch.
No way, these barbarian soldiers are cavalry when they are mounted, but infantry when they are dismounted.
At this time, if the cavalry is sent to harass, the face will be 20,000 horses and shoots, and there will be no return.
"A slave is here." Niu Ben suddenly sighed.
Xiao Ming saw that some of the slaves in Huyantuo Buluo who were camping at this time suddenly walked towards Cangzhou City.
These slaves lined up and walked towards Cangzhou City step by step.
Zhan Xingchang gritted his teeth, "These barbarians are simply devoid of conscience and don't treat the people of my great Yu country as human beings."
"More than just looking at it as a human being, don't you know another name the barbarians call the people of Dayu country?"
"What!" Zhan Xingchang asked.
Niu ran looking at the slave who was constantly marching towards death and said, "Two-footed sheep!"
"Two-legged sheep!" Xiao Ming frowned slightly. This term has appeared in modern history. This two-legged sheep, as its name suggests, is a sheep with only two legs.
At that time, Huaxia was in the era of five wild China. The Han people called the double-footed sheep were not only slaves to the barbarians, but also food for the barbarians. This double-footed sheep came from.
Niu Ben continued: "There was a shortage of food when the barbarians invaded Youzhou. At that time, the barbarians ate Han people as their food. This is the origin of the double-legged sheep."
These words made Zhan Xingchang clenched his fists, he had never thought that the barbarians would be so vicious.
"what!"
A scream came, and the slave who was walking on the grass suddenly fell into the trap, and suddenly screams came from the dirt pit.
At this moment, a burst of laughter came from the barbarian cavalry who followed behind the slave.
On the city wall, the soldiers watched everything. They were holding the weapon and turned white because of too much force.
They know what the barbarians are laughing at, they are laughing at their hard-working traps that can only kill their own compatriots.
Xiao Ming watched everything silently. This is war, a battlefield that can do everything. There is no mercy or sympathy in this battlefield. The only purpose of the two sides is to kill each other.
The chased slaves appeared in a panic. They hesitated to advance. This angered the barbarian cavalry. They waved their scimitars and slashed at the slaves who refused to advance.
A shrill cry sounded on the empty battlefield~EbookFREE.me~The slaves trembled and moved forward again.
The traps were destroyed one by one, and the barbarian cavalry finally stopped at a distance of two hundred meters. At this time, there were only a hundred slaves of five hundred people in front of them.
At this time, the barbarian cavalry took out their bows and arrows and continued to shout for the slaves to advance.
"His Royal Highness, these slaves can no longer be allowed to advance, otherwise all the traps will be over." Zhan Xingchang almost gritted his teeth and said, this is the hatred of the barbarians.
Looking at the barbarian cavalry standing two hundred meters away, Niu Ben took a soldier and handed a bow and arrow. He said: "His Royal Highness, you must not be a woman at this time. A war may only be due to a few traps. Will change."
"The old general will do it by himself."
Xiao Ming looked solemn, it turned out that this was a battle to defend the city.
"Swish!" A sharp arrow shot, followed by a scream, Xiao Ming clearly saw a blood burst out of the chest of the slave who was walking in the front.
