Chapter 548 Artifact(2/2)
"What's wrong with the royal family? I know that his father is Li Shentong, the emperor's cousin, and I know that he is the governor of Minzhou. Minzhou is also a central governor's office. My Diezhou governor's office is just a subordinate to the governor's office. However, when he came to my territory and disturbed our morale, I could keep him in check. Is there any defeated general who pleaded for Li Daoyan?"
"No, everyone seems to be very upset with the governor, and they are in a hurry."
Qin Lang laughed.
"Since that's the case, then keep keeping it closed, just have two meals a day, don't be hungry."
······
Tuoba Chici sent people to cut down trees and temporarily create equipment for siege.
Qin Lang stayed quietly in the castle, looking at the Qiang camp from a high place on the bell and drum towers every day. Every day, new people would arrive in the Qiang camp.
A few days later, more than 10,000 people had accumulated in the Qiang camp under the city.
They also made a batch of rough siege equipment and some simple and clumsy ladders, but Qin Lang didn't think such ladders were of use.
His bunkers are very tall, and such ladders cannot be used to build bunkers and city towers. The equipment that can truly threaten the fortress are actually catapults and siege crossbows.
If the catapult cart is too strong and exquisite, it can collapse the watchtower, and the crossbow gun shot from the siege crossbow can be firmly nailed to the city and act as a weapon to climb the city.
But it is obvious that as a nomadic tribe, the Dangxiang Qiang people didn't even know how to plant crops, so how could they know how to build such exquisite and advanced siege equipment? They even made simple ladders like shit.
In a few days, the more than a thousand defeated soldiers were finally reorganized. These people are now full of anger and want to avenge their previous shame.
However, Qin Lang has been strictly prohibiting leaving the city to fight without permission.
He was waiting for the Qiang people to attack.
On the seventh day, the Qiang people finally started attacking, but instead of attacking the five-star fortress, they first attacked the Anhua County town guarded by the Qiang people's city behind.
Anhua City is not big, it is a county town built for the Qiang people inside. In fact, it should be said to be a border town market. The Qiang people inside are actually nomadic, living by water and grass, and will not settle in the city.
When Dangxiang Qiang arrived, Qin Lang ordered the few people in the city to retreat to the east, leaving only the thousands of Qiang cavalry gathered to guard the city.
But Qin Lang had already given them an order. If the Qiang people really wanted to attack the city, they would defend if they could, and if they could not defend, they could retreat and break through.
On the seventh day, Dangxiang Qiang sent troops to attack Anhua, but all the Qiang who were defending the city immediately left the city. The two sides fought outside the city for more than an hour, with each other casualties.
When Dangxiang Qiang sent more troops to surround the Anhua Qiang soldiers, these guys immediately turned around and ran away without a trace.
So Dangxiang Qiang seized the empty Anhua City.
From beginning to end, no five-star fortress two miles apart sent out any soldiers.
The Qiang people cheered for a while, but soon disappeared. Perhaps they felt that taking down an empty city was not worth showing off.
The five-star fortress has completely become an isolated city.
However, the Tang flag on the castle was still waving in the wind and roaring, and the Tang army in the city was not affected.
Afternoon.
A Qiang soldier finally carried their shoddy ladders and large shields towards the fortress.
Because the fortress was very small, they simply came from all directions and prepared to take down the fortress in one go.
The horn sounded.
Qin Lang climbed the bell and drum tower, but he had a smile on his face.
"For so many days, these guys finally dare to come to attack the city, and the good show is about to begin!"
If the Qiang people didn't attack the city, they were afraid that Qin Qiong from Songzhou would have arrived after seeing the beacon fire. Calculate the time, if Qin Qiong came from Songzhou to Diezhou, if he went out of Gansongling and headed northwest, he would have arrived in at most ten days.
There is not much time left for the Qiang people.
"Tell the soldiers not to waste arrows, they all aimed at shooting."
