Chapter 179: Deferment

"Retired, retired!"
Looking at the slave soldiers disintegrating like a tide, many soldiers shouted excitedly.
The corner of Niu Ben's mouth raised a smile, and he said: "His Royal Highness, the artillery scares the enemy."
"The first time I saw this kind of unprovoked weapon, it was normal to be afraid at first, but after they got familiar with it, it was a real battle." Xiao Ming said.
Niu Ben nodded silently, unable to comment.
Up to now, they are basically in contact with slave soldiers, and they have not really fought against the barbarians, and the barbarians are the main force in this war.
They have been using slave soldiers to consume the soldiers, ammunition and defensive materials of the Qingzhou Army.
"His Royal Highness, the gunpowder cans and artillery should be used at the last minute, I am worried..." Niu Ben hesitated and said.
This is also what Xiao Ming is thinking about. Up to now, the Barbarians have not shown any signs of being dispatched. If the gunpowder cans and shells are exhausted at this time, the last moment will be really difficult.
Because this time is similar to Tian Ji's horse racing, the barbarians have been using inferior soldiers to consume his superior soldiers.
"Stop shooting!"
Xiao Ming shouted at this time.
Lu Fei, who was excited by the power of the artillery, walked over and said, "His Royal Highness, why is this? It's hard to make these brutal soldiers suffer."
Xiao Ming ignored him, but looked at Luo Xin, "How many gunpowder cans and shells are there?"
Luo Xin was in excitement. Hearing this, he suddenly felt a little cold behind his back. He said: "There are more than 1,500 gunpowder cans left, and there are 2,300 rounds of shells."
Lu Fei understood what Xiao Ming meant. He stomped his feet dejectedly, "This is the same for Chen Wenlong and Chen Qi. Why can't we prepare more, what can we do now? Only these slave soldiers can put the gunpowder cans and The shells were exhausted."
"The return artillery has been destroyed. From now on, both the gunpowder canister and the artillery can be saved. Time is rushed, and the Equipment Department can't prepare too much ammunition. Now we have to drag it." Xiao Ming analyzed.
Niu Ben nodded and said, "Yes, the barbarians travel long distances. This food and grass logistics is more troublesome than ours. Moreover, there are a large number of them, but the food and grass they eat every day is countless. No bones are left, and we are just as the wheat matures. This large quantity of grain will arrive soon, and the longer it takes, the more artillery and shells we will have."
Lu Fei and Luo Xin nodded, and Lu Fei said, "But I'm afraid this barbarian will not give us time to delay."
The four were talking, and suddenly a sharp arrow flew from the barbarian camp.
When he reached the head of the city, the arrow was obviously weak in follow-up, Niu Ben moved agilely, and grabbed the arrow in his hand.
"Your Highness, there is a letter on it," Niu Ben said.
Xiao Ming looked at the barbarian cavalry who turned back and said, "Take a look."
Niu Ben took down the letter, glanced at it and handed it to Xiao Ming: "The opposite is indeed the barbarian Tai Ji Beishan, he is persuading His Highness to surrender."
Beishan wrote in his heart: I read about the friendship between the Great Yu Kingdom and the Golden Horde for many years, and I do not want to see the lives of Cangzhou City. If King Qi is willing to surrender, Bentai Ji can guarantee his highness and safety. If you do not understand, Cangzhou City will be a movie. A does not stay.
"Hahaha, this Beishan is really interesting, in that case, who wants to go out of the city to negotiate with the barbarians." Xiao Ming said suddenly.
Lu Fei was immediately annoyed when he heard this, he said angrily: "His Royal Highness will be the thief who surrenders, I am the first Lu Fei to refuse!"
"Xiao Ming, I really misunderstood you. I even went all the way from Chang'an to surrender to you. Now that you have the chance to win, but you want to surrender, I don't agree!" Luo Xin said angrily.
Niu Ben sighed, "You two idiots, don't you know what a slowing strategy is?"
Xiao Ming shook his head helplessly. At this moment, seeing Zhan Xingchang standing in front of him, Zhan Xingchang said, "His Royal Highness, it seems that I am the only one suitable to go."
"You really want to go, Bei Shan has a fickle temperament, and you are likely to go and never return." Xiao Ming said.
Zhan Xingchang's expression was indifferent, he said: "The king's loyalty, the loyalty, the head and tail, not the husband!"
A person's quality can only be seen at the moment of crisis, and Zhang Xingchang's thin body suddenly becomes taller in Xiao Ming's eyes.
Lu Fei and Luo Xin had understood at this time, and they all admired Zhan Xingchang. Lu Fei said: "Zhan Sima, there were so many offenses in the past. I hope to forgive me. I didn't expect you to be a true man. "
Zhan Xingchang clasped his fists and said: "It's all for your Highness. You go to battle to kill the enemy. I'm just showing off."
He then turned to Xiao Ming, "It should not be too late. Your Highness should let me go out of the city."
This time, Xiao Ming just wanted to fool Bei Shan, so this incident would be very dangerous. He nodded and patted Zhan Xingchang's shoulder again.
At this time, Niu Ben asked people to take pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Xiao Ming also wrote a letter, saying that surrender is fine, but the conditions for surrender need to be negotiated.
Using the same method, Niu Ben shot the letter with a bow and arrow.
In the barbarian camp, Bei Shan has a gloomy face, and the power of artillery and powder cans is vividly visible.
After this retreat, the morale of the slave soldiers was greatly reduced.
Although the barbarian soldiers in the back continued to shoot and kill the disintegrated slave soldiers, they were still unable to resist this defeat.
This made them have to refurbish to attack again. At this time, the experience of dealing with the countries of the Western Regions made him decide to persuade him to surrender.
Although he himself didn't believe in surrendering when the defenders of Cangzhou had the advantage, he was idle and he would never give up any opportunity.
Only after the letter of persuasion was sent, he suddenly noticed that the artillery fire at the head of the city had suddenly stopped.
After a while, the scout delivered a letter.
"Negotiating!" Bei Shan's expression was brilliant, "The King of Qi actually agreed to surrender."
Liu Xuan was almost stunned when he heard this~EbookFREE.me~ This is completely beyond his understanding. He said: "Taiji, this king of Qi is sinister and cunning. This is probably a slowing strategy."
Bei Shan smiled, "It's natural, but it doesn't hurt. Everyone is a slow-down."
After a pause, he said to Gurtai: "Take advantage of the night tonight, you must blow up the city wall."
"Yes." Gultay said.
During these attacks, the slave soldiers under his command suffered heavy losses. Although he was unwilling in his heart, he did not dare to disobey Bei Shan's orders at this time.
On the battlefield, there were many flag leaders who were beheaded by this Beshantaiji for defying orders.
After waiting for a while, Bei Shan saw a person coming down from the wall of Cangzhou City. It was probably an envoy who had been sent.
Bei Shan said to Liu Xuan at this time: "You Han people know Han people best. You can do this. If King Qi really surrenders, you come and find me."
