...

"The enemy is attacking!"

"Defense~~"

"Save arrows! Aim and shoot again!"

"Have the water boiled?! Push it over!"

After the arrow rain stopped, a large group of infantry rushed towards the stone fort, and Xu Wenjing hurried in a bunker in the stone fort and couldn't help but loudly command the Han army to defend the enemy.

The Bohe people carried the long ladder and entered the concave fortress again. When they leaned against the city wall, the falling rocks on the stone fortress poured down like raindrops again, and the Bohe soldiers were howling ghosts and wolves.

"puff……"

A general of Bohe personally went to the battlefield. When he placed a long ladder along the wall of the stone fort, a crossbow arrow quickly penetrated his forehead, lifted him up two steps, lay straight on the ground, his eyes turned white and fell into darkness.

"Bang~"

A Bohe man was hit on the back of the neck by a falling rock above his head. He immediately heard a cracked bone sound in his ears, and he lay weakly on the ground and moaned loudly to his companions.

"ah……"

There was also a Bohe man who held a shield and climbed up the long ladder with difficulty, but he had not reached halfway. Because he stepped on the air under his feet, he lost his balance. He screamed and fell off the long ladder, and seriously injured his two companions below.

The fierce battle continued. After more than 400 casualties were suffered under the stone fort, the Bohe people quickly climbed along the long ladder toward the top of the stone fort while taking advantage of the decrease in the density of the arrow above their heads.

"Very good, as long as you have the will, you will definitely be able to take down the stone castle!"

Lun Qingling, who was standing in the rear array to pay attention to the changes in the battle situation in the stone castle, saw the ladder full of people, and nodded with satisfaction, and was determined that the war was about to end...

"Pour water~"

"Sher~~"

When the Han soldiers on the stone fort saw that the enemy on the ladder was about to climb up the city wall, they immediately ordered the boiling water placed at the chassis to pour out the stone fort.

“Wow~~”

The Bohe people who were climbing at the top of the long ladder were unaware of it. When one hand was about to touch the chassis at the top of the stone castle wall, a pool of hot liquid poured down. Before they could react, the liquid had poured on their cheeks.

"Ah, ah, ah~~"

The boiling boiling water suddenly made the Bohe man's face burst. The severe pain made him unable to help but shout. Finally, he relaxed his hands and fell into the crowded crowd below.

"Let it go~"

"Huh~"

At the edge of another long ladder, two Han soldiers pulled the wooden rope and loosened their hands, and the heavy rolling wood inlaid with caltrops, immediately pressed down along the long ladder.

“Ah~~”

For a moment, five Bohe people climbing on the long ladder were all smashed back to the ground by rolling wood. After leaving a pool of blood marks on the handrail of the long ladder, they slowly pulled upwards...

At the side cliff, a Bohe man finally climbed up the cliff after many obstacles.

"Ao~"

He roared excitedly, then stepped on the cliff and jumped to start the "unparalleled harvesting mode"...

"Puchi..."

“Ah~~”

But the next moment, his body was still in the air and a Han soldier directly pierced his lower abdomen with a spear. Before he could react, he felt that the spear blade left in his lower abdomen was pushed hard, directly pushing him down the city wall, leaving only a heart-wrenching roar echoing.

"puff……"

Another Bohe man's head had already appeared at the chassis, but before he could raise his eyes, the Han army crossbowman guarding the corner shot through his cheek with an arrow at close range, and flew backwards and fell under the city wall.

However, as the number of Bohe people increased, the Shibao defenders gradually became more and more difficult. A small Han army school couldn't help but run to Xu Wenjing and asked: "Military supervisor, there are too many enemies, what should I do?"

Xu Wenjing replied loudly: "The city wall is covered with caltrops, put everyone up and kill them!"

"Here!"

After hearing the order, the Han Army School immediately returned to the battlefield...

The Han soldiers who received the military order immediately followed the order and temporarily retreated to the city wall defense line. At the same time, they were covered with caltrops under the gaps. They retreated five steps away from the rear, using spears, swords and shields as formations to protect the crossbowman behind them to fight back.

"Ah..."

A burly and stout Bohe soldier climbed the battlement of the city wall and saw that the Han soldiers were not guarding the battlement. He suddenly looked like a fierce beast in heat, waving the arc knife in his hand excitedly, and then jumped.

“Ah~~”

As soon as his feet fell to the ground, he immediately roared in pain, and saw the veins on his forehead swelling, which was obviously extremely painful.

I lowered my head again and saw two bloody iron nails on my leather boots...

More and more Bohe people climbed to the stone fort, but all of them were nailed by the caltrops under their feet.

When the Han soldiers saw that the silence was already full of enemies, they immediately launched a counterattack.

"Shit..."

"Puff puff puff..."

A round of crossbow arrows shot down, five steps away, no matter whether you are wearing a chain mail or a zipper, no matter whether you have a heart protection mirror, they will all be shot into a sieve...

After all, before the popularization and maturity of alloy armor and firearms, the power of crossbow arrows was unique.

After the Bohe people in front of the battlement were shot and killed like chopping melons and vegetables, the spearman and the sword and shield hands howled again and rushed towards the battlement, pushing all the officers and soldiers who tried to climb up the city wall to the rock-falling fort...

This attack lasted from noon until dusk. After the Bohe people left behind 1,500 bodies, they retreated again in a panic...

At night, in the marching tent, all the generals focused on Lun Qingling. He said in person during the day that if he could not conquer the stone fort in this battle, he would lead the military law to deal with it.

Now, everyone is eager to see if this prime minister, Elephant Bear, who infringes on the government and the opposition, will abide by the agreement.

Lun Qingling's face was not at all terrified and embarrassed. He sat silently in front of the main case, glanced around, and then said: "I really didn't expect that the original minister had underestimated the Han army in the stone fort. Since the stone fort has not been conquered today, the original minister should be engaged in accordance with the military law..."

"Master, victory or defeat is common in military affairs, you don't need to care..."

"Master Prime Minister, the enemy is too cunning, it's no wonder you..."

"The stone castle is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is reasonable to fail today. Prime Minister, don't worry..."

The generals in the tent persuaded each other, but the tone was not sincere, but instead felt gloating.

Their original intention was to see Lun Qingling cut his ears and eyes, and this statement was just a formality.

However, they really underestimated Lun Qingling. He is not only a military strategist, but also a politician. The primary factor in becoming a politician is shameless!

Lun Qingling said calmly: "Since everyone says that, let's record this military law! Let's calculate it after taking down the stone fort, but today's shame cannot be forgotten. As the commander of the three armies, I also have an unshirkable responsibility, so..."

Speaking of this, Lun Qingling suddenly took out a dagger, cut off a scoop of hair from his temples and said, "Today, I will learn from the people of the Central Plains to cut their hair and remember the shame of this failure!"

The generals were speechless, but helpless. When many people saw the tufts of radiating on the ground, they began to complain and resent about Lun Qingling.

Nonsense, if we lose the battle ourselves, we either execute or become disabled. You are so good, have you been out of the way? You still cut your hair and replace your head? The Central Plains people's hair and the matter is related to our Bohe people? You are too shameless to play with your double standards, right? You have the ability to cut your ears to prove it, it's so fucking...

However, no matter how much you complain, they don’t have the courage to say it in front of Lun Qingling.

Lun Qingling returned to his position and said, "I won't say much, so let's stop attacking tomorrow. I will personally meet the main general of the Stone Fort and talk to him about the conditions!"

Zantuciren replied: "Master, should we make peace with these people in the Central Plains? You must know that so far, nearly 5,000 people have been lost in their hands, so how can we let them go?"

Lun Qingling said: "Let them go? How is it possible? Now the first thing is to let them relax, and then take down the stone castle in one fell swoop while they are unprepared. Of course, if they can listen to their true form and give up the stone castle, then the true form may consider leaving them a complete body..."

Zantu Tserin nodded: "So, then I'll feel at ease. I'll prepare to meet with the generals of Shibao Han Army..."

Lun Qingling replied: "Bring ten sheep and send them three buckets of butter, and they said that this was a gift to them with me..."

“Yes~”

Zantu Tseren immediately went to prepare after hearing this, and after a brief exchange, the other generals also left the main account one after another.

...

"Military Supervisor, this is the sheep and ghee sent by the Bohe people. It is said that their commander will meet you tomorrow. Do you think you should be given a visit?"

Bohe sent the cattle and ghee to the stone fort full of corpses, left a sentence, and waited for a reply in place.

In order to prevent fraud, the Han soldiers asked Xu Wenjing for advice.

After Xu Wenjing came to the outside of the stone castle to watch for a while, she looked at the two Bohe people under the stone castle, ten sheep and three barrels of butter standing alone among the piles of corpses, and couldn't help but sneer in a slight way.

"Since the Bohe people are so enthusiastic, we can't refute this little face and go pack up our things. It means that at noon on the twilight day, the military supervisor agreed to meet with their commander!"

When the Han army school heard the order, they immediately gestured to the Bohe people outside the stone fort. It was not until he understood the meaning that he bowed and left the sheep and ghee.

Shortly after the Bohe people left, more than a dozen Han soldiers climbed down the walls of the stone fortress, ensuring that there were no ambush around them, and then brought the sheep and ghee back to the stone fortress.

After testing, there was no poison in the ghee and the sheep did not look like they were sick. Xu Wenjing immediately ordered people to kill the sheep and start cooking.

"After eating so many days, Hu cakes and hot soup, it's time to change the taste today. Go and get a piece of iron plate and pour some ghee onto the iron plate. I will make fried lamb chops today!"

In the stone fort, there was joy and joy. The days of guarding had consumed more than half of the food carried by the Han soldiers. Now that the enemy has taken the initiative to send food, Xu Wenjing has no reason not to accept it.

As for the purpose of the enemy's food delivery, Xu Wenjing knew very well. She still wanted to dismantle her fighting spirit?

However, Lun Qingling miscalculated one thing, that is, Xu Wenjing never acted according to the usual practice...
