Ming Dynasty: The army is forcing the palace, you say that Lao Zhu faked his death

Above the walls of the North Gate.

Tie Xuan and Sheng Yong were standing on the top of the wall, looking at King Ning's army opposite.

I saw that a large number of cavalry as far as the eye could see stopped outside the moat.

They seemed to have noticed that the drawbridge had been cut off, so they were thinking about how to cross the moat.

Obviously, the depth and width of the moat is not something they can easily challenge.

After only a short delay, the other party gave up the idea of crossing the river.

However, this did not mean that King Ning's army had given up the idea of attacking the city.

The proof is that they didn't choose to leave immediately.

Instead, he stopped without haste and began to camp in place.

Obviously, King Ning's army was stopped by Jinan's defense, and could only stay in place unwillingly.

After Tie Hyun saw this scene, he was overjoyed.

It seems that according to General Sheng Yong's idea, the method of widening the moat and destroying the suspension bridge is effective!

It effectively blocked the offensive of King Ning's army, so that King Ning's army could not immediately launch an attack on Jinan City.

In this way, they have a head start.

As General Sheng Yong said, King Ning's army was dominated by cavalry, and it was very advantageous to fight on the plains, but it had many disadvantages in siege.

The mere absence of siege engines is a huge drawback.

From this point of view, King Ning's army will not have a good way to defend them in a short period of time, let alone attack the city.

As long as they hold out for a while, the scales of victory will tilt in their favor.

However, before Tie Xuan and Sheng Yong could be happy, a soldier suddenly pointed in the direction of Zhu Quan's camp and asked, "General, what are they doing on the other side?"

Tie Xuan and Sheng Yong looked in the direction the soldier was pointing.

I saw that King Ning's army did not rest after camping, but began to cut down trees in the dense forest.

One by one, the stout trees fell.

It makes people's hearts uneasy.

Tie Xuan looked at it for a while, and suddenly understood a little: "The other party has cut down so many trees, are they going to build a boat to cross the river? No, are they planning to build siege equipment?"

Sheng Yong couldn't help but laugh when he heard Tie Xuan guess like this.

"Don't worry, my lord, the siege equipment that was built in a hurry is simply a joke on the lives of the soldiers, if King Ning has such a whimsical idea, I am relieved. "

Tie Xuan couldn't help but let go of his nervousness when he heard Sheng Yong comment on this behavior.

Although he doesn't know as much about the military as Sheng Yong.

But I also know that if the siege equipment is something that can be created so simply, there will not be so many generals in the past who would rather spend the effort of the army to carry those bulky siege equipment.

Therefore, King Ning's move will not only not bring them a crisis, but will bring disaster to his own soldiers.

Now, neither of them is so worried.

However, Tie Xuan still did not let down his vigilance, and he instructed the soldiers guarding the city: "You are all staring at night on duty, you must pay close attention to the movements of King Ning's camp!

The

soldiers defending the city were specially emphasized by the Shangguan, where they dared to slack off, they all straightened their backs and shouted loudly.

The golden wuxi fell, the sunset faded, and the night came as scheduled.

Most of the lights on the other side of Jinan City have been extinguished, and the whole city has fallen asleep.

However, in the camp of King Ning's army outside the city, a group of soldiers were still busy building siege equipment.

Someone cuts down the tree, and someone is responsible for further cutting the tree that looks down.

There were also people who were in charge of assembling the wood.

In short, everyone has a job to do, and after eating, they are more energetic.

There is a lot of strength in people, and with the efforts of so many people, it was really made into a siege tree in a short period of time.

Zhu Quan was satisfied with these results and ordered the soldiers to rest and recuperate.

Late at night, everyone except for a few patrolling guards fell asleep.

Hurrying during the day and toiling at night, the army was so exhausted that it almost fell asleep.

At this time, Zhu Quan came alone to the place where the siege equipment was stored, where a lot of good siege equipment had been piled up.

It's just that the appearance looks a little rough, and if you want to use it directly, it definitely won't work.

However, Zhu Quanda did not plan to make these ready-made things from the beginning.

From the system space, he took out all the siege vehicles and siege ladders rewarded by the system.

In just an instant, the siege engines filled the place.

Zhu Quan stretched out his hand and tried it, the material of the siege equipment given by the system was very hard, and he tried it with a torch, but there was indeed no sign of burning.

I don't know what the origin of this so-called iron wood is, and it is indeed not afraid of fire and water.

And it is so strong that it can almost be compared to iron.

Seeing this situation, Zhu Quan's thinking diverged and he immediately had another idea.

Since this material is so magical, you can try to make a flintlock pistol out of this ironwood.

Maybe it's better than the original flintlock pistol.

However, these are all things to be done in the future, and his most important task now is to take Jinan.

More on the flintlock matter later.

With these system rewards, you should be able to surprise the people in Jinan City tomorrow.

The people of Jinan City must not have imagined that people who had nothing yesterday would have such a large number of siege equipment in hand today.

Thinking of this, Zhu Quan suddenly looked forward to the siege launched tomorrow.
