Chapter 611 Massacre

After receiving the news, Niimohu hurriedly went out of the tent and rode his horse to the outer city to climb up to the city wall to watch.

If Jian Mohu had seen this army for the first time, he would have sneered. There was neither a unified military uniform nor a flag, let alone a neat military appearance.

People who are unaware of this scene will think that a group of people are rushing to the city of Yanshan Prefecture.

But Nian Mohu fought with the refugee army and was beaten to the point of being beaten. He knew very well how powerful these people under the city looked like ordinary people.

Nian Mohu estimated that there were not many refugee soldiers outside the city, only 30,000 to 40,000 people. And there were more than 50,000 soldiers in his city.

It is said that more than 50,000 people will come to defend the city and let 30,000 to 40,000 people attack, should be sure to win.

But Nian Mohu knew in his heart that the more than 40,000 defeated soldiers who were directly under his command had already been scared by the refugee army. The remaining more than 10,000 people were the direct descendants of Xieye who had just left, and did not obey his own orders.

It seems that we can only rely on the three-meter-high Yanshan Prefecture wall to resist the attack of the refugee army.

When Jian Mohu looked down from the city, Changshou was also riding on the horse and looking up.

"What do you think?" Changshou asked Xiao Mingyan beside him.

Yanshan Prefecture is Nanjing of the original Qingbai Dynasty. Among these people, Xiao Mingyan is the most familiar with Yanshan Prefecture.

"Yanshan Prefecture City is high and deep, and it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. But that is different from the usual siege for us." Xiao Mingyan said.

"There are two methods to attack the city. One is to use the moat to trap them until they starve to death. Winter is about to begin, the road is difficult to move, and it is difficult for the Black Bone Man to reinforce Yanshan Mansion. The other is to use cannons to aim at the corners of the wall and bombard the city wall and attack the city." Xiao Mingyan continued.

"The Yongji Canal will freeze in winter. We can only rely on ox carts to transport grain. Tell Shi Zailiang to transport more express transportation. Even if we capture Yanshan Prefecture, we need food to defend the city." Changshou said.

While the two were talking, a man wearing the seventh-rank official uniform of the Great Chu State came over.

"Is the Changshou Commander planning to attack the city with artillery?" the man asked.

Changshou looked down and saw that the man was Jia Liangcai, the former head of the Zhuangcheng Army of the Great Chu Kingdom.

In addition to craftsmen who make various weapons such as bows, crossbows, armors, and armors, there are also Zhuangcheng Army who build cities, shipyards and shipyards, etc.

Jia Liangcai is the head of the Zhuangcheng Army craftsmen among the three thousand craftsmen who were rescued this time.

"Yes. Is there anything wrong with it, Lord Jia?" Changshou asked.

"It takes a long time to hit the wall with the iron balls sprayed from the cannon. Moreover, the black bones can also be damaged as soon as possible, and then labor will be damaged." Jia Liangcai replied.

"Then you must have a good idea?" Changshou continued.

"It's still the old way to dig a crypt and bury gunpowder to detonate the city. It's already late autumn and the soil is dry and it's just right for this method." Jia Liangcai replied.

"How long does it take to dig the crypts to dig under the city wall?" Changshou asked.

"In half a month, you will definitely be able to dig out three hundred meters of crypts. Then bury gunpowder, and after the sky collapses and the earth breaks, the refugee army can enter Yanshan Mansion." Jia Liangcai replied.

"Okay! I'll leave this matter to you. Take your craftsmen to select another hundred refugee soldiers." Changshou said.

Jia Liangcai took the order and turned around happily and left.

Changshou said to Xiao Mingyan: "Tell Mr. Xiao to give Jia Liangcai 500 taels of silver. The craftsmen under his command were 100 taels each. One hundred migrant soldiers each had fifty taels each. When the city was broken, there would be a heavy reward!"

Xiao Mingyan nodded and said, "What he may want is not money but official!"

"This is not easy to deal with? Anyway, I have the final say. Tell him immediately that he is already a sixth-rank official. This is our salary is not as good as that of the Great Chu State." Changshou said with a smile.

Then Changshou pointed to the moat and said, "Tell me, build ten earthen trunks fifty feet away from the city, which is higher than the Yanshan Prefecture wall. Put the copper cannon on the earthen trunk and bomb the black bone soldiers on the city wall with stone bullets!"

After Jian Mohu went down to the city, he immediately checked the stored food. More than 40,000 people were scared and could not beat them, but it did not mean that they could not eat them.

More than 50,000 soldiers in Yanshan Prefecture City consumed huge food every day. They had been staying in Yanshan Prefecture for two months, and it turned out that there was not much food stored in Yanshan Prefecture.

After checking, Jian Mohu's face became even more gloomy. The remaining food was half hungry and half full, and it was enough for the soldiers in the city to eat for two months. But how could they still have to defend the city and make them hungry?

Now we hope that reinforcements will send food to fill our hunger. Even if there is no obstacle from the refugee army, there will be neither many soldiers nor much food in Yingzhou, Pingzhou and Luanzhou in the north.

This time, the Wugu army headed south and took away most of the elite troops of the Wugu people and consumed a lot of food.

Now, the prefectures north of Yanshan Prefecture can only protect themselves, whether in terms of military power or grain.

"Mr. Zhang, what should I do now?" Jian Mo Hu asked Zhang Tonggu beside him.

"There are more than 10,000 people in Yanshan Mansion. They pull out houses, transport wood and stones to the city walls to defend the city. All the food in the people's homes will be used as troops!" Zhang Tonggu replied.

Hearing Zhang Tonggu's answer, even the murderous Lan Mohu trembled all over. This was equivalent to causing the more than 10,000 people to freeze and starve to death.

These people are all the people of the original Qingbai Dynasty. Zhang Tonggu was also a minister of the original Qingbai Dynasty. However, Zhang Tonggu did not hesitate at all.

It’s still a scholar who is cruel enough! Jian Mohu thought to himself.

"Send the order and immediately demolish the house and search for food!" Jian Mohu said sternly.

When the Great Chu State formed an alliance with Wugu, the 200,000 Great Chu State troops attacked Yanshan Prefecture, causing heavy casualties and injuries to the people of Yanshan Prefecture.

After Murong Xingshi defeated the army of the Great Chu State, the Wugu Army came to attack the city again. The people of Yanshan Prefecture experienced another disaster. Then the Wugu people gave Yanshan Prefecture to the Great Chu State, and then the Wugu people attacked Yanshan Prefecture again. Zhang Linghui led the Changsheng army to surrender to the Wugu people, opened the city gate and let the Wugu army enter the city. The people of Yanshan Prefecture suffered the third disaster.

Today is the fourth time. There should be no next time this time, because there will be no living person in this time.

Shortly after Nimohu issued the order, the Wugu army was dispatched. The sound of howlings suddenly sounded in Yanshan Prefecture.

To both demolish houses and grab food is equivalent to not giving the people a way out. At the last moment, the people had to fight against the black bone soldiers. But how could the people with bare hands be the opponent of the black bone soldiers?

Two hours later, there was silence in Yanshan Mansion. All the people fell in a pool of blood.

The refugee soldiers outside the city also heard the screams coming from the city.
