Baishanguan and Wo Kuotai had a stalemate over whether to fight out of the city or inside the city.
Bai Shanguan pondered for a long time and looked at Wo Kuotai with complex eyes: "General Wo Kuotai insists on taking his soldiers out of the city to fight?"
Wokuotai nodded without hesitation, showing no intention of giving in.
"Brother Baishan, I am the commander-in-chief of the warriors in my tribe. Since they are going on an expedition with my brothers, I must be responsible for their lives."
"We Turks have always been famous for our riding and shooting. Defending the city is really not our strong point. We were bombarded by Dalong's artillery yesterday. The tribesmen have already suffered heavy casualties. I don't want them to die in vain in street fighting again."
As he spoke, Wokuotai raised the armor on his chest, which was made up of leather armor mixed with cloth armor, towards Bai Shanguan.
"Brother Baishan, our weapons and armor are not at the same level as those of the dragons. We can hardly get any advantage in street fighting."
"Their hand crossbows can easily kill us, but our bows and arrows may not be able to kill their soldiers."
"It is true that our Turkic people's archery skills are very powerful, but not all of us Turkic people are eagle shooters who can shoot the enemy's throat with perfect accuracy and kill them."
"You want me to be responsible for the safety of your brothers, and I can't take the lives of my men for granted."
"Forgive me for not being able to fight side by side with Brother Baishan and the soldiers of Fei Xiong Guard!"
"Take care, we have a long way to go, I hope we can see you again alive!"
"Goodbye, little brother!"
Wokuotai did not give Bai Shanguan a chance to stay again. He held the scimitar at his waist and waved to the surrounding soldiers.
"My sons, follow me and fight out of the city. If you die in battle, the Wolf God will bless us. It is better than staying in the city and being blown up by enemy artillery."
The personal guards behind Wo Kuotai followed Wo Kuotai without hesitation towards the school grounds where the Chongzhou garrison was previously stationed in the city, where all their war horses were placed.
Now that they have to go out of the city to fight, they naturally have to ride their war horses. Yesterday's battle made all the Turks understand that defending the city may be the worst decision they made.
Only the charge and killing in the wilderness is the glory of the Turks.
They are the darlings of the grassland, so they naturally have to charge into battle according to the rules on the grassland.
General Qiu looked at Wo Kuotai and the others turning away, and raised his hand to wave to the guards on the side, wanting to stop them, but was stopped by Bai Shanguan's eyes.
General Qiu looked at Bai Shanguan hesitantly: "General, once they leave the city, our situation will become even worse."
"Their cavalry is fast. If they can't defeat the enemy outside the city, they can find an opportunity to retreat at any time. We can't. Once they evacuate the Chongzhou battlefield, all the pressure from Dalong's enemy forces will fall on us."
"Once we are surrounded in the city, there is no need for the general to tell us what will happen!"
Bai Shanguan silently looked at Wo Kuotai's retreating back and sighed.
"He was not a good ally, but he was a good general."
"Wo Kuotai insists on leaving the city. We have no reason to keep him at all. If we force him to stay, we will only kill each other and benefit the dragon soldiers and fishermen outside the city."
"Since Wo Kuotai insists on going out, we have no other choice but to let him test Liu Mingzhi's skills first."
General Qiu and the other generals were stunned for a moment and their eyes lit up: "General, what you mean is that after they leave the city, we still stay behind closed doors and let the Turks first consume the strength of Dalong's enemy army?"
Bai Shanguan glared at several generals.
"Confused, you don't understand the meaning of lips dying and teeth cold?"
"If you stay behind closed doors, Wo Kuotai will dare to lead his soldiers and horses to flee. In the end, the pressure from the dragon will still fall on us."
"Now the Turks are still our allies, and no one can do without the other."
"The general is confused. Please clarify, general, what should we do next?"
Bai Shanguan raised his head and glanced at the ruins of the city wall and sighed: "You should follow my general to climb the city wall and take a look."
Everyone hesitated for a moment and nodded helplessly looking at Official Baishan's determined expression. Although they did not want to climb the city wall, since Official Baishan had given the order, they had to obey.
Ordinary soldiers have a large number of people. In order to avoid causing turmoil in the military morale, Baishan Officer does not practice military law in accordance with the law and does not punish the masses.
These generals don't have such a good life. If they dare to disobey orders, Bai Shanguan can kill them immediately.
"Got the order!"
There were differences between the two coalition forces in the city, and the Dalong troops outside the city were also at a loss.
The flag in Jiang Lei's hand was dancing with the breeze. Looking at the empty appearance on the city wall through the lens tube, Jiang Lei didn't know what to do next.
If the enemy troops no longer scale the city wall, how can they still fire artillery?
Jiang Lei never felt that he was rich enough to fire cannons and blow up city bricks for fun.
The torch in the gunner's hand crackled and burned, and all his eyes fell on Jiang Lei.
The cannonballs have been loaded for so long. Should we fire or not?
Several hours of burning incense passed, and there was still no movement on the city wall. Jiang Lei had no choice but to put down the lens tube in his hand.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Lei handed the telescope to the deputy general on the side.
"Fan Hu, you first pay close attention to the situation on the city wall. Once the enemy troops enter the city, you can fire at any time. I, the general, will inform the commander first and see what should be done next!"
"The last general takes command!"
Young Master Liu was still wondering why there was still no sound of cannons after the three rounds fell for so long, so Jiang Lei walked into the tent with the command flag.
"Jiang Lei, what's going on? Why haven't you fired yet?"
"Commander, it's not the general's fault. As of now, it's on the city wall..."
Jiang Lei briefly talked about the situation in Chongzhou. After listening, Liu Mingzhi frowned and thought for a while, picked up the telescope and hurried out of the big tent.
From the position of the central army, Liu Mingzhi looked at the empty city wall through the mirror, and his heart suddenly became depressed. He knew that the next thing would be difficult to handle.
Yesterday's fierce artillery fire caused heavy casualties to the coalition forces of the two countries. As a result, they were afraid of the power of artillery and no longer dared to leave the city and climb the city wall.
Song Qing put down the telescope in his hand: "Commander, time waits for no one. If you really can't blow open the city gate, let's attack the city!"
"I'm confused. I pulled out so many artillery pieces because I wanted to rely on the advantage of the artillery to consume their troops and break into the city to fight them hand-to-hand. This goes against my original intention."
"Once the troops come into contact, the brothers will suffer heavy losses."
"After entering the city, both cavalry and artillery will be constrained to the greatest extent. This is a loss-making business."
"Of course the general understands, but if they don't board the city, we are afraid of accidentally injuring the people and don't dare to extend the artillery fire into the city wall. If they don't board the city, we can't keep fighting with them!"
"If this continues, we won't be able to capture Chongzhou within ten days."
Liu Mingzhi frowned and raised his hand to gently rub his temples: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, let me calm down and think about it carefully to see if I can find a way to get the best of both worlds."
Liu Mingzhi slowly closed his eyes and pondered, thinking about whether there was any way to lure the enemy troops in the city to climb the city wall.
Everyone now understands that time waits for no one. The more this happens, the more he has to calm down and think about it. Under no circumstances can he treat the lives of his brothers as child's play.
"Report! Report to the commander-in-chief!"
"A large number of cavalry charged out of the east gate and south gate of Chongzhou City!"
"Report, Commander-in-Chief, the north gate and west gate of Chongzhou are wide open!"
Liu Mingzhi suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards Chongzhou Wangle. After a little thought, he understood the plans of the Turks in the Jin Kingdom.
He secretly thought that he was worthy of being a general guarding one side. He was by no means an ordinary person. He was really decisive in his actions.
Knowing that the artillery in his hands was very powerful, he actually wanted to use this method to suppress his own artillery bombardment.
With a gentle breath, Liu Mingzhi knew that it would be impossible to recapture Chongzhou without paying a price.
In this case, we can only defeat them one by one.
