Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 264 What is a beast
Zhang Li was afraid of the range of the huge crossbow, and after running out of the place where the arrow was shot, he continued to retreat a long way back. After the sound of the crossbow breaking through the air was no longer heard, he calmed down and turned his head away. .

Only then did he notice that among the guards who followed him with iron shields, only one was dead.This time, it is really a life-and-death...

"Zhu Su's son!" Feeling the slight wetness in his crotch, Zhang Li's eyes were tearing apart. "You act like this, don't you have no courtesy, justice and shame at all!"

"Etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame are for people."

"You abandon my Chinese clothes and hats, willing to be bandits, plundering the coast of the motherland, how different from traitors and beasts!"

"To deal with traitors and beasts, only bows and knives!!"

Zhu Su's voice on the top of the wall was still loud like a bell, reaching Zhang Li's mind far away. Zhang Li trembled with anger, but he didn't know how to refute.

"This guy, you can hear it from the beginning!"

Thinking about it this way, I feel pain in my heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.

"Siege! Siege! I swear to capture this little thief!" Zhang Li stomped the ground a few times and shouted fiercely.

"Second Young Master, Second Young Master, be careful!" It was Ma Fengsun who rushed over and urged. "The city is high and the pond is deep, and the siege equipment has not yet been completed, so it is impossible to attack by force!"

"We still need to act according to the strategy from the beginning... What's more, don't lose your dignity in front of those Japanese!"

"...Hmph!" Zhang Li turned his head and saw that the warriors of the Da Jingtian family were all looking at him jokingly. In order not to lose face in front of the friendly army, he had no choice but to swallow his breath.

"Mr. Zhang, are you all right?" Naoto, who is short and tall, rode a tall horse and ran to Zhang Li and asked,

"Oh, it's Mr. Dajingtian." Zhang Li let out a deep breath, and turned around as if he was in control. "I'm fine, but I'm just trying to show off a loophole on purpose to arouse that kid's underestimation of the enemy. Now, that kid must think that we are all reckless people..."

"Oh?" Mrs. Ojinga was startled, "It turns out that Mr. Zhang is performing on purpose!"

"So that's it, that's it. Is this your Huaxia's 'art of war'? It's amazing."

"It's so realistic, it almost fooled me, my friend..."

"Hehe, if that wasn't the case, how could I have fooled that kid...hehehehe..."

……

How Zhang Ren saved his face in front of the Japanese did not mention, only that Zhu Su saw that Zhang Ren had disappeared into the army and stopped talking, so he also went down the tower.Zhu Di immediately came up to meet him, his face flushed with excitement: "Old Wu, your last sentence was so uplifting!"

"To deal with this kind of bandit, I really want to frighten him severely! What kind of martial arts are you talking about with him!"

"I didn't mean to scare him..." Zhu Su felt regretful. "I really want to kill him directly."

"It's a pity, I didn't expect this guy to run so fast."

"The two armies are fighting, and they don't kill the envoy. Your Highness's move is indeed detrimental."

Ru Taisu and Wei Guan also greeted him.Hearing what Ru Taisu said, Zhu Di's face darkened just as soon as he saw Ru Taisu shaking his head again, looking very pleased: "...But that talk about thieves and beasts is a wonderful talk!"

"If it weren't for the time of the battle, the old man should talk about it and give him three reasons!"

"Unexpectedly, Ru Yushi is also reasonable!" Zhu Di turned his anger into joy.

"However, Zhang Li is as panic-stricken as a bereaved dog, and his morale has been lost. Thinking about it, it shouldn't be a cause for concern, right?" Wei Guan said in a questioning tone, looking at the bandits and Japanese allied forces outside the city. "Could it be that they will still storm this city?"

"...Probably." Zhu Su also suppressed the smile on his face. "Those soldiers below are still logging and building villages. It seems that the commander is not discouraged by this crisis."

"It seems that they are determined to smash this city. At least, they put on such a gesture..."

"Hmph, just such a few people want to attack the city? From the perspective of this king, they are all trying to sell their heads..." The second child, Zhu Xi, snorted and showed off the new idioms he had just learned from the Three Kingdoms.

"……yes."

Zhu Su bit his lower lip.Even the second brother knew that it was futile for these soldiers to attack the city, so why did these people have to do this?
……

On the sixth day of the first lunar month, only two days later in the morning, the genius was dim, and the coalition forces' siege of the eastern city wall was about to begin.

About 1000 people gathered outside the camp carrying dozens of simple ladders that had just been made.After the guard post on duty at the top of the city noticed something unusual, it directly rang the alarm clapper, and then amidst the sound of the clapper, the three thousand Suzhou guards who had been waiting in the temporary camp under the city wall for a long time rushed to the top of the city.

"These thieves... don't intend to make this king feel better at all!" Zhu Su yawned, and walked out of the city gate wearing a big coat.Dawn was always the best time to attack the city, and they did not dare to relax in the past two days, for fear that the bandit army would suddenly attack the city, so food and lodging were all on top of the gate tower.

In contrast, the other three directions of the city were guarded by the three nominally highest-ranking officials of the Suzhou government at this time, Ru Taisu, Wei Guan, and Yang Lu, respectively, to prevent thieves from attacking from east to west.

"Only 1000 people... It's too small to underestimate the city walls of Suzhou." Beside Zhu Su, Zhu Di held the binoculars and kept watching the assembled army.Since the beginning of the war, this guy has been extremely excited, and he has hardly slept all night on the tower for the past two days, but he is still full of energy. "Could it be that the thief wants to send cannon fodder to test it first? Why don't these people have any armor?"

"Well, I can't see clearly at dawn, maybe it's just that some of them don't have armor..."

"Maybe it's because I really want to test it out. After all, Zhang Li may have known about the disarmament of the Suzhou government." Zhu Su said.Yang Lu was incapable of managing the army, and he was played by Zhang Ren and Chen Hui, who pretended to be Taihu water bandits, which caused the morale of these military households to be generally low.

This is also the reason why I forced all the senior executives of the Suzhou government to go to the front line to boost morale.If they stayed in the safe rear and commanded, the morale of these Suzhou guard soldiers might collapse.

If the advantages become disadvantages, then you will cry without tears.

"If they attack with all their strength in the first wave, it's really hard to say." Zhu Di also nodded in agreement.Compared with Zhu Su's Wu Wangwei and even Zhu Xi's Qin Wangwei, the military capacity of this Suzhou Guard is really a heaven and an underground.

After Zhu Di got used to the elite soldiers trained by modern military training methods like Wu Wangwei, he really couldn't understand the lazy military appearance of Suzhou Wei.

"Here they come! They're here carrying the ladders!" Seeing the thousand people approaching with the ladders, Zhu Di's face suddenly became solemn, revealing a bit of excitement when he was about to fight. "This distance...it's time to rain arrows!"

Sure enough, just as he finished speaking, the voice of Qianhu Cao Yuan, who was in charge of guarding this section of the city wall, came from the front: "Arrow rain is ready!"

"put……"

"wait wait wait!"

Cao Yuan was only halfway through the word "Fang", but he heard another sharp interruption from the front of the soldier.

"That... that's not a thief... the one carrying the ladder is not a thief..."

"Those people... the villagers in my village! They are my relatives!"

Zhu Su was shocked all of a sudden.Only then did he notice the indistinct cry that came from the cool breath of dawn.
