Before An Ran got the news from the intelligence brigade that Xijiang Mansion was about to attack Ping An Mansion, she knew the news through the puppet she placed next to the leader of Xijiang.

Yes, being surrounded by the Five Houses, An Ran could not be unwary, so she placed puppets next to the leaders of the Five Houses so that she could keep abreast of the latest developments of the Five Houses, so as not to be caught off guard by them.

After receiving the news at this time, An Ran began to make preparations in secret. So after the intelligence brigade on the surface passed the news to her, she had already made all the preparations that needed to be made and was waiting for the enemy to attack the city.

As a refugee army with territory, this refugee army has better siege equipment than the previous refugee army. There is no shortage of rams, ladders, catapults, etc.

Looking at the various siege equipment slowly approaching, the defenders on the wall were not very panicked, because the teachers had already talked about these siege equipment and how to deal with them during the previous class, and Ping'an Mansion not only

There are common tools for dealing with them, and there are also updated tools for dealing with them, such as...cannonballs.

Because Gu Liufu is a time-travelling woman, An Ran does not dare to create anything too advanced. However, artillery is the best tool to deal with old-fashioned siege equipment. A cannonball will blow it up, and those made of wood such as rams, ladders, and catapults

Wait, everything will be smashed to pieces, so An Ran pretended to have evolved a little more based on the previous artillery shells and created a more powerful artillery.

There are already artillery shells in this era, but they are not very powerful. The effect of defending the city is not as good as that of a catapult. However, the artillery that Enron has improved is much more effective. It does not need to move huge rocks like a catapult, and the artillery is much smaller.

It's easy to transport, but the effect of hitting it out is better than that of a catapult. It can definitely smash those siege equipment - anyway, in the previous test, this effect has been achieved. Even if it doesn't, smash a few more,

It will definitely succeed.

Since there is such a magical object, the soldiers guarding the city are naturally not worried at all.

An Ran watched on the wall as the siege equipment slowly moved to a position close to the wall. Seeing that they were preparing to attack the city, he thought that if these siege equipment were attacked, even if they were not destroyed for a while, they would not be able to drive out of the range in time.

All were wiped out by the artillery, so he waved his hand, and without the enemy understanding, they saw dozens of black objects flying out of the city. As these objects fell, they made a thunderous sound.

The equipment they were preparing to attack the city was blown to pieces. Because they were densely packed under the city and prepared to wait for the siege equipment to be set up, they would then attack the city. As a result, they were hit by a fish pond and were killed by the explosion.

I don’t know how many people were killed when the siege equipment fell down.

But he said that the enemy leader was originally surprised that there was no movement at Ping'an Mansion after all their people had arrived at the city and were preparing to board the city. Now they saw that the enemy had used artillery to blow up their siege equipment to pieces, and they couldn't help but be horrified.

They have some experience in being able to own a territory. Naturally, they have heard of artillery. However, ordinary artillery is just stronger than fireworks and has little effect at all. I never thought that the artillery of Ping'an Mansion is so powerful.<

/p>

Seeing that the siege equipment was smashed to pieces, and then seeing that the elite warriors who climbed the city were killed and injured countless times, the enemy leader knew that today's goal would not be achieved. Once the soldiers were intimidated by the artillery,

Morale was lost; secondly, there was no way to attack the city without siege equipment, so he immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops, hoping to attack Ping'an Mansion again when they were ready.

Seeing that the enemy was about to leave, everyone in the Ping'an Mansion fired rapidly on the wall, trying to kill and injure more people before they left the shooting range and eliminate the enemy's effective strength. In this way, no matter how weak the enemy was, he would attack again later.

Ability will be beneficial to them in attacking enemies in the future.

Because arrows were raining down like rain, the retreating people were afraid that they would be shot to death, so they became a little anxious. So, like the time in Taiping County, they fled again, trampling many people to death.

Soon, the enemy ran away without a trace. At that moment, An Ran and others went out to clean the battlefield. Finally, the members of the patrol team expressed in frustration that except for armor and weapons, they did not gain as much money as before.

An Ran smiled and said: "This is normal. They have territory. I guess I left the money at home before going on the expedition and didn't take it with me. Don't worry, we will have money when we conquer Xijiang Mansion in the future."
p>

The patrol team members nodded yes.

Yes, since Xijiang Mansion came to attack An Ran, An Ran would naturally not let him fight, but would fight back.

This has always been Enron's strategy. Under the current circumstances, Anron has been peacefully engaged in production and has not taken the initiative to attack. However, if someone dares to hit her, she will definitely use this as an excuse to fight back against the opponent, and logically take over the opponent's territory.

Having such a reputation as a teacher is naturally what Enron wants most.

She doesn't have to worry about no one beating her. As long as she manages her people better and better, there will definitely be people who will covet her and want to steal her things, or people who will be wary and want to get rid of her to avoid becoming a threat in the future.

So after the troops from Xijiang Mansion retreated, An Ran held a mobilization meeting and expressed his readiness to go to Xijiang Mansion.

Because it had been dormant for a while, the patrol team had more than 5,000 veterans who had been trained for more than half a year, and many semi-veterans who had been trained for more than three months. It would not be a problem to attack Xijiang Mansion, which only had 5,000 troops.

The reason why Xijiang Mansion is not like the previous refugee army, which often numbered tens of thousands, is because they already have territory and are no longer refugees. Naturally, unlike the previous refugee army, many of them are not soldiers at all, but just follow the main force of the refugee army.

Ordinary refugees who want to wait for the main force of the refugee army to break through the city and want to follow behind to grab something, let them follow because they can make the main force of the refugee army that is actually attacking the city appear to be large in number and can intimidate people, so

No refugee army prohibits these people from following.

Xijiang Prefecture now has a formal army. This time it came to attack Ping'an Prefecture. Naturally, it was a regular army, and there were not many refugees behind it. This is why Xijiang Prefecture's army does not seem to have many people.

Although there don't seem to be many people, their 5,000 soldiers and horses are real. They are not like the previous refugee army, but they look a bit scary in terms of numbers. There are not many who really dare to attack the city.

Although Xijiang Mansion has 5,000 soldiers and horses, these 5,000 soldiers and horses are mixed, good and bad. Moreover, when they attacked Ping'an Mansion before, thousands of people were killed or injured. Now, the number that can fight is estimated to be only 4,000. An Ran plans to take advantage of their absence.

It's a good time to regain your strength and cause trouble for them.

So now An Ran talked about revenge and the opportunity, and the captains of the patrol team unanimously agreed to go. After all, they are not cowards who will let others bully them without fighting back.
