PS: Thanks to the book friend Enchanting Jie Chao and Moonlight under the Book for the reward.
Ombuhong said with a surprised look on his face: "Are the armored cavalry of the Tiger Flag so powerful? They are not even a match for our Mongolian armored cavalry?"
Living on the grassland, he has believed that the Mongolian cavalry are the strongest cavalry in the world since he can remember. Now that Kankantada told him that the powerful Mongolian cavalry was no match for a Han cavalry, his first reaction was that it was impossible. , and even thought Kancantada was lying to him.
Kankantada, who had lived for a long time, saw the expression on Ombuhong's face that had changed several times. He could not guess what Ombuhong was thinking, so he explained: "The armored cavalry with the Tiger Flag are shooting on horseback. They are no match for our Mongolian armored cavalry, but they wear iron armor that cannot be penetrated by arrows, and the weapons they use are all made of fine iron. Our cavalry suffers too much from their armor, and this is why they were defeated outside the city. The reason for this Han armored cavalry."
As he spoke, he looked at the armored cavalry with the Tiger Flag who were showing off their power outside the city.
"It would be great if we Mongolians also had enough fine iron to make armor." Ombuhong slapped his hand on the crenel with hatred.
He has known since he was a child that there is a shortage of iron on the grassland. Even the personal guards around the Khan are not qualified to wear a suit of iron armor. Most of them wear leather armor.
Kankantada saw that Omubuhong gave up the idea of sending armored cavalry out of the city to fight with the armored cavalry outside the city, and said: "Omubuhong, why don't you go back to eat something first, and wait for the tiger-character banner army to arrive? I’m afraid I won’t have time to eat anymore.”
"If Lao Taiji is hungry, go eat first! I'm not hungry yet, I want to stay on the city wall." Ombuhong rejected Kancantada's proposal to go back.
At this time, he had no appetite at all. Instead, he was secretly looking forward to the arrival of the Tiger-Charactered Banner army earlier, so that he could have a happy fight with the Tiger-Charactered Banner soldiers and horses.
Kankantada looked at the look in Omubuhong's eyes that was eager for a fight, and felt extremely satisfied.
Such young people are their hope for the future of Tumut. He believes that as Ombuhong grows up, Tumut will become stronger again.
People were coming and going on the city wall.
The Mongols were not good at defending the city, and they did not expect that one day a large army would attack Qingcheng.
The busy crowd on the city wall was very chaotic and inefficient. It took a lot of time to gather the things needed to defend the city.
"Damn Han people, let you block the road, let you block the road."
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
The sound of whips resounding on the city walls, along with painful wails.
"Old Taiji, what seems to be happening up front?" Ombuhong said, looking at the place not far away where several circles of people were gathered.
The yells and howls of pain came from the beating crowd.
Kancantada also noticed the situation in front and said, "Let's go over and see what's going on."
With that said, he walked towards the place where the accident happened.
Ombuhong followed closely beside him.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way." When they got closer, Omubuhong pushed aside the crowd blocking him with his hands, and walked toward the innermost part of the crowd with Kankantada.
The Mongolian who was grabbed turned around and glared, wanting to teach the person who grabbed him a lesson.
But when he saw Omubuhong and Kankantada behind him, he immediately gave up his position honestly.
Omubuhong and Kankantada arrived among the crowd smoothly.
"What's going on? Don't you know that the tiger-character flag army is coming? If you don't grab the things ready to defend the city, what are you doing here?" Kancantada scolded the people watching the excitement around him.
Seeing the arrival of a distinguished person like Kankantada, the crowd watching the excitement dispersed, leaving only the troublemakers in place.
Only then did Kankantada look at the troublemakers, who were a Mongolian and a Han.
When the Mongolian who caused the trouble saw Kankantada and Omubuhong, he hurriedly saluted and said, "See Taiji."
"No need to be polite." Ombuhong waved his hand perfunctorily, then pointed at the Han man lying on the ground and said, "What's going on?"
"When we were returning to Taiji, this Han man blocked the way, so I gave him a small lesson." The Mongolian said nonchalantly.
Ombuhong glanced at the whip marks on the face of the Han on the ground and said: "These Han people should be taught a lesson, otherwise they still don't know that this is the territory of the Mongols."
When the Mongolian heard this, his face lit up with joy, and he immediately said: "I will take this Han man off the city wall and take care of him."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand to lift the Han man on the ground.
"Okay, you go do it!" Kankantada stopped the Mongolian who wanted to continue to teach the Han people a lesson.
The Mongolian glanced at Kankantada in confusion, wondering why he wanted to help the Han man.
However, he knew Kankantada's identity and that he was a nobleman on the grassland, but he was just an ordinary Mongolian. He did not dare to disobey the nobleman's wishes, so he had to leave reluctantly.
Kankantada glanced at the Han people on the ground and said, "You also go to work. There is no waste here."
"Thank you, Taiji." The Han man kowtowed to Kankantada and Omubuhong, and then ran away to do things.
At this time, Ombuhong said with an unsightly expression: "Old Taiji, why did you let that Han Chinese go just now? Such dishonest Han Chinese should be taught a severe lesson."
"Ombuhong, remember, it is right to teach the Han people a lesson, but it also takes time." Kankantada said, "The tiger-character flag army is coming soon. We need these Han people to defend the city. In order to teach a Han people a lesson, , which makes other Han people alienated, which is not conducive to our defense of the city."
Ombuhong said coldly: "These Han people are really hateful. If it weren't for the Han people in the Tiger Flag who came to invade Tumut, why would we need to defend the city? I think that Han should be executed. The other Mongols are angry, and as for the remaining Han people, whoever dares not to do things honestly will be executed."
"Let's let these Han people go this time. When such a situation occurs again, it won't be too late to kill them." Kankantada did not want to argue with Ombuhong.
In his eyes, Ombuhong is still young and lacks experience, so it is not surprising that he has such an idea.
At this moment, Temulun ran over from a distance.
"I heard that something happened here just now. What happened?" As soon as Temulun arrived, he asked Kankantada for confirmation.
Ombuhong was the first to speak: "There was a Han who caused trouble just now and was severely punished by us Mongolians. If it weren't for Old Taiji letting that Han go, I would have killed that Han a long time ago."
"So that's what happened." Temulun nodded slightly, and then said, "Because the Tiger-Charactered Banner army is about to attack Qingcheng, the Mongols in the city hate the Han people, and they will attack Qingcheng because of the Tiger-Charactered Banner." All his anger was vented on the Han people defending the city."
