Orchituhan is actually only forty years old, but he looks very old.

He was under tremendous pressure during this period.

In the past two years, he has been tortured by An Sanxi and has turned mad, with his head covered in white hair.

Because the Heshuote people were at the easternmost point, the ranch in Tianshan was also very rich. As a result, it became the primary target of the cavalry army descending from Mount Altai.

They often used battalions as units, one man and five horses, dived down from the Komodo area, and raided the Hesotite pasture. They attacked suddenly, and left after fighting, and were very reluctant to fight. The master said this was called blitzkrieg.

Grazing must be scattered because a piece of grassland of several square kilometers is enough to feed a herder. Cattle and sheep need a lot of grass. Grass is of very low nutritional value. Cattle and sheep and war horses need to eat grass all day and eat grass for about ten hours a day to ensure full nutrition.

If grazing is done, it cannot be dispersed.

An Sanxi is a man who fought old wars on the grassland. In fact, he is no different from the Mongolians. He knows the background of the grassland. He is the most ruthless in his attacks. He will fight wherever he doesn't resist. He uses a trick of being absent from the family.

For example, in winter, we set fire and burn the hay, so that the cattle and sheep in the winter pasture camps would not have eaten hay, and they would lose weight in large quantities.

Then he was frozen to death because of losing weight and his ability to prevent cold was greatly reduced.

Spring is the weakest time for nomadic peoples. They survived the winter with their livestock, and people were as thin as livestock. An Sanxi came to beat them at this time.

They could only ride on thin, exposed horses to fight.

In summer, when livestock are fat and fertilized, they must scatter on the grassland to grazle. Ansanxi attacked at night, and while men were not at home, they raided the camp and captured women and children.

When the horses are fat when autumn is high and the horses are fat, the grass will bear seeds. When the war horses eat grass seeds at this time, it is equivalent to eating food, which is the time to be strong.

But An Sanxi turtle couldn't hide. No matter how you scolded, he just hid in the castle made of cement and stone in Komodo, drinking white wine and eating barbecue, and ignoring you at all.

The four Mongolian tribes in Moxi attacked Komodo several times, but all returned in disgrace.

These nomads had no ability to attack solid fortresses at all. In the era of Genghis Khan, they were also weak to attack solid fortresses. If they had not obtained the advanced European catapult technology from the Western Regions and the Arab region, they would not have been able to conquer Xiangyang City.

Yang Fan narrowed his eyes and said, "Shot the letter with an arrow and tell Orchituhan that it is still time to surrender at this time. I will allow him to take away the nobles and officers, as well as their families and slaves. I will buy their cattle and sheep. I will find an island in Nanyang that is enough for hundreds of thousands of people to live in, and his descendants can also be lords for generations, and I hope he will not mislead himself."

The artillery was setting up artillery positions, while the engineer was building artillery bases. It would not take long to fire the artillery.

The walls of Daban City in the distance were still left by the Tang Dynasty. They were already dilapidated. Although the people of Heshuote knew that this was the gateway to Tingzhou, there were many repairs.

However, rammed earth and wooden components have long been decayed. This kind of city wall was built by people of the Tang Dynasty and was rammed with layers of clay and reeds, which have played a strengthening role.

Now the reeds have long rotten, and the city walls are very unsolid.

Orchituhan climbed the ancient tower in the city and looked at the sixty or seventy heavy cannons in the distance. The black muzzle faced the city wall, and he couldn't help but feel cold all over his body.

Only then did he realize that the six heavy artillery cast by Proudo Verrat, which was a joke in Dingyuanhou of the Ming Dynasty. There were much more artillery than him.

"Abu (Dad), the Ming army will be siege the city later. Their main force and heavy artillery are concentrated in the east, and I will stop them here. You will take your personal cavalry and rush out from the west gate to join the Turkuts. Those who have not left have been taken care of by us over the years. Thank you for your kindness. They will take you in, and Tingzhou will not be able to save you."

"I try my best to break through the siege later. How many people can I bring out? I'll go to Amuhe to join you."

Orchituhan shook his head and said, "Without the Heshuote tribe, it is a betrayal dog, and there are still people who are willing to help us."

Nomads are different from Han people. They believe that the strong are respected. The custom is to be noble, strong, and weak. There is no filial piety of the Han people. It depends on people's strength, and no one will take the losers seriously.

"Abu, then what should we do?"

"If you can guard this city, you can surrender if you really can't. I heard that Dingyuan Hou of the Ming Dynasty was a trustworthy man. Before, Ketuhan did not kill or plunder his relatives, nobles, slaves, property, etc. After surrendering, he did not kill or plunder his relatives, nobles, slaves, property, etc. I heard that tens of thousands of people were immigrated to Palawan Island in Nanyang and became the island owner."

"At least the bloodline of the family can be preserved, and the descendants are still nobles. Can we not defeat the Han people or the indigenous people of the South China Sea? The Heshuo Special Division is over, and now we can count as much as we can save." Orchitu Khan said with his head down.

Maledama felt sad. Abu was also a hero when he was young, but now he is so discouraged.

He sighed, said nothing, and went up to the city wall to supervise the battle.

The people in the grassland are very realistic. They recognize the natural law of the strong and will accept their fate once they are defeated.

Eighteen twelve-pound cannons and fifty-four six-pound cannons. Driven by the artillerymen shaking high and low aircraft and directional aircraft, the muzzles were flat and aimed at the city walls and gates.

A large number of wooden boxes of fired medicine and shell boxes were transported by gunners and piled up behind the gun positions.

The artillery captain Hou Shijing stretched out his thumb and dripped a little saliva in his mouth. Then he raised his thumb, started to calculate the distance with his eyes, and used the saliva on his thumb to feel the wind speed.

"Okay, that's OK. This distance is just right for a spherical solid bullet. Recharge and wait for the master's order to launch. Just this broken wall will probably collapse in more than a dozen rounds."

The commander of the engineer brigade Li Xian held his arms and watched the fun.

"Hou Lao Er, are you okay? If you can't, speak as soon as possible. Our engineers and soldiers are our specialty in blasting." Li Xian said arrogantly with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Hmph, you guys who dig holes, go as far as you guys go. The master of this work has been left to our artillery soldiers. You engineers stand aside." Hou Shijing said disdainfully.

Behind Li Xian, the engineers were smoking and watching the fun. They were so idle that they were almost out of nowhere. The engineers were so idle that they were very idle when they had nothing to do, but they were so busy that they were all busy.

Their work cannot be replaced by ordinary troops, and their treatment is even higher.

These guys have developed a very arrogant personality and do not take other troops seriously.

Because the master valued them and treated them as treasures. Especially when the army went on an expedition, they could not live without them when they drove through mountains and rivers along the way.

Yang Fan raised his hand and looked at his watch, saying, "Tell Hou Shijing that I will give him an hour to blow the city wall open. Let the Sorens be prepared to climb the city. Now fire the fire."

Yang Fan knew that an era was about to end.
