Chapter 195

The processed bed crossbow has an enlarged bed, larger bow and arrows, and can shoot three arrows at once. If the number is sufficient, its power is enough to destroy low-quality earth walls.

Although it was still ineffective in front of such a city, the roaring power was still scary enough. The city gate wrapped in iron sheets rumbled and almost collapsed.

But Qin Hu knew that it would be useless even if the city gate was destroyed, because the inside must be solid, so all this was to destroy the enemy's military morale.

Immediately after, boulders weighing more than fifty kilograms were launched by the stone machine and hit the city head like a torrential rain. Under the repeated blows of the crossbow and boulders, the soldiers on the city head were either directly pierced by the crossbow machine or seriously injured by the boulder.

If you can't stand it, you may fall to death under the city.

After this round of attacks, seventy or eighty people on the Liaodong side lost their combat effectiveness due to lack of preparedness. Suddenly, an atmosphere of terror began to pervade.

"How about it, Su Wen, now tell me who is looking for death. Fight for me. Do you have the strength?" Qin Hu shouted loudly.

"Let me tell you, I know that you are short of soldiers and food. The troops in your city are all surrendered by our Yu Dynasty. They will sincerely fight for you. I will give you another chance. You must surrender immediately.

Listen to the general's arrangements, otherwise, the next attack on the city will be your death."

"Master Zenyue, what kind of weapons are these? We can't resist them. Although the opponent is just a lone army, if we continue to fight like this, I really don't know what the outcome will be." Su Wen was a little scared.

"General, don't worry, try to stabilize the opponent first, and then we can think of a solution after we go back." Chanyue could only think of a way to delay the attack now.

"Then let me think about it, but I still advise you, if you are resisting the decree, you will also be punished with death." Su Wen said stiffly.

"Okay, I'll give you half a day. Early tomorrow morning, if I don't receive any news from you, I will immediately launch a general attack. Think about it yourself."

Qin Hu then ordered to withdraw to the camp.

Su Wen seemed very anxious after returning home. He did not need to ask Gao Yuan for such matters, because the emperor was just a puppet, and he alone had the final say in all matters in Liaodong Kingdom.

But he was really frightened by the combat power Qin Hu had just displayed, so he urgently asked his think tank Chan Yue for advice: "What weapon did he use just now?"

Chanyue also withered this time. Although he was knowledgeable and knowledgeable, he knew nothing about bows and crossbows.

"If he attacks us with the weapons just now, how long can we last?" Su Wen asked again.

"Even so, we may not necessarily lose, because he is just a lone army, but our losses will be very heavy, and many things are unpredictable." Chanyue could only respond in this way.

Hearing these words in Su Wen's ears, his heart suddenly became even more troubled, because Chanyue has always been a man of wisdom and has never said such unfounded words. He said these words euphemistically, but the underlying meaning is self-evident.

Yu, that is to say, they are already in danger.

"If the capital is captured, even if we escape and Qin Hu's lone army does not dare to pursue us, the country will fall into chaos, and the general's power may not be preserved." This sentence is the key point.

Qin Hu did not have enough troops to penetrate deeply, but Su Wen also had to put himself in his own shoes. A powerful minister like him could not take risks.

"What terms does the master think he will propose if I negotiate with him?"

"Since ancient times, all the attempts to compromise have been to cede territory, pay compensation, marry, and send hostages to the court. All Qin Hu can propose is these conditions."

"If we cede the land, what else do we have? The compensation is even more ridiculous. We are almost dying of poverty. How can we compensate him?" Su Wen was furious: "It doesn't matter if you send a hostage to the court, just choose a prince and send it to him. It's just a marriage."

No problem, no need to discuss anything else."

Chanyue nodded: "Since the general has such an idea, we can definitely deal with him."

"Madman, simply madman." Su Wen scolded: "Disobeying the imperial edict and fighting alone, this yellow-mouthed kid is simply crazy."

Chanyue sighed: "Since ancient times, the most feared thing is youth and arrogance. Such people can often accomplish things that others cannot. No one can do anything about it."

Su Wen was sweating anxiously and kept walking around the room. After about an hour of burning incense, he suddenly slapped the table: "Okay, I'll go meet him tomorrow."

Seeing that there was no other good plan now, Su Wen could only make this decision. He ordered people to strengthen the defense at night and persisted until tomorrow morning no matter what.

Qin Hu was also very anxious. He came to protect his children and evacuated so neatly, taking away a lot of food and grass. He was just desperate now.

"If you take a risk, take a risk. If we leave this time, we will definitely not be able to come back. It is too frustrating to go back like this, and I am sorry for the soldiers who died in the battle and were captured. We will fight hard." Qin Hu said to Pei Yuanqing.

Pei Yuanqing said worriedly: "I'm afraid that if Su Wen is stubborn and refuses to give in, we won't be able to take the city within three days and we will be in danger immediately."

"Don't worry, Su Wen is more scared than us." Qin Hu raised the corners of his mouth: "This old fox is afraid of losing his rights and being counterattacked by the plateau. I'm sure he will definitely come out to negotiate."

Finally, both sides survived until the next morning. As expected, the city sent someone to deliver a message, saying that General Su Wen was willing to come out for negotiations, but he could not enter the Yu army's camp. At most, it could only be in front of the two armies' formations.

"Okay." As long as Su Wen is willing to come out, we can talk about this matter. If he dares not to agree, Qin Hu will fight him desperately at all costs. This is called risking his life to survive.
