Chapter 203 Shawo Town = Bastion

"Waste! They are all a bunch of waste! Five days! A Shawo Town has been fighting for five days, and Ben Khan is not as afraid of death..." Shanba kept roaring in the big tent, and the general below lowered down lowered his head and dared not say anything.

Half an hour later, Wen Buchu, who was sitting beside him, coughed lightly and said, "Shanba! My brother, please calm down first.

I have seen the efforts of the warriors over the past few days. It’s not that they are not brave enough, but that the Han people’s town is too difficult to fight!”

Wen Buchu's words were recognized by the generals, and a short and strong general stepped out and said, "Khan! The Ming people didn't know what they used to build a city, which was harder than a stone.

Our warriors smashed hard with a hammer to knock a little bit. And they also built the strange shapes of the town. It was the first time the warriors encountered it, so..."

"So what? Chagan Naur, is this the reason for your cowardice?" Shanba interrupted his subordinates and asked.

Chagan Nur'er's words stopped, then he blushed and said, "Khan! Give me another three days. If I can't capture Shawo Town, Chagan Nur would like to come and see you!"

Upon hearing this, Shanba's face looked much better and nodded, "Very good! I'll give you three days, and after breaking the city, you'll be allowed to enter the city for one day!"

"Thank you Khan!" Chagan Nur bowed happily to thank him. The other generals were a little jealous and secretly hated that they had not seized this opportunity.

Although there are huge casualties in siege, entering the city first means that you can take the lead in looting this wealthy town. Others can only pick up some things that Naur doesn't want when entering the city.

When the people in the tent left, Shanba's serious expression went all out, and sat back but said on the chair: "Wen Buchu, you are so good at winning people's hearts. If this continues, my subordinates will run to you!"

"Shanba! You are too concerned. The warriors under your command are all in the East. How could they follow me to the West?

Besides, we have decided! You are strict and I am gentle. Only in this way can the soldiers work together to defeat Nuergandusi!" Wen Buchu said with a smile on his face.

Shanba snorted coldly and didn't say anything, always feeling that Wen Buchu's smile was so hypocritical.

Shawo Town is located in the border area. At the beginning of its construction, it adopted a bastion structure.

Although several walls are not tall or even a little low, they are built into multiple zigzag shapes. Although it consumes more manpower and material resources, it also makes the defense ability reach an abnormal level.

Unlike other towns, Shawo Town is divided into two parts: inside and outside. The inner basin is stationed with 500 postmen and mercenaries all year round, and the simple sheds built on the outer layer are the trading transactions.

The Tumote tribe went south to invade Nuergandus. Shawo Town immediately closed the trade and began to host people from all over the countryside.

When Tumot's army besieged Shawo Town, the people in the basin reached more than 8,000. With so many people, Shawo Town was not short of manpower. Not only did it repel the Tumot's siege, but it could also attack in time, catch the Tatars off guard, making them afraid to attack with all their strength.

"The Tartars are sieging the city again!" Someone shouted, and the soldiers who were resting in the basin ran up and stared nervously outside.

Thousands of men ran out of the Tumot tent in the distance, and they ran around the bastion and kept firing arrows at the top of the city.

More Tatars jumped off their war horses, rushed to the basin with the sandbag, threw them down and ran away. However, there were not many Tatars who could throw the sandbags under the city, and there were only a few who successfully escaped.

The firepower of the battalion is too strong. No matter which direction the Tatars choose to attack, they will be shot by cross-fire.

Whether it is the arrows fired or the bullets fired in the bulwark, the Tatars are in pain. What's more, the several artillery guns on the bulwark are spraying dead shells every moment.

The low castle wall can be more stable when bombarded and can open fire without any worries about shaking the wall.

The Tatars had not piled up halfway under the city, but they retreated like a tide. A burst of cheers came out from the bastion to celebrate the resurgence of the enemy's attack.

"Nurhaci! The Tatars are getting worse and worse! They retreated without even having enough fights this time!

I'm planning to lead someone to rush? Who knows they can't help but fight!" E Yidu shook his head and said.

Nurhaci stared at the retreating Tatars and said, "Eh Yidu! It's better to be careful. My uncle is coming. The more you are at this time, the more cautious you should act!"

"What should I be careful? I want me to tell you that we should attack and win a beautiful victory, so that my uncle can see our brothers' abilities!" Anfei Yanggu also interrupted.

Uh Yidu nodded repeatedly and agreed with the proposal. Nurhaci shook his head slightly. The order Li Fan gave them was to stand firm in Shawo Town and wait for the army to arrive to wipe out the Tumote tribe.

If they acted too ruthlessly and Tumot lost confidence and retreated, the blame would be great.

But the emotions of the brothers were unwilling to be comforted, so they had to speak: "Next time the Tatars come again, Affey Yanggu, you can bring people to fight once!

Remember! Don’t fight in love, don’t go too far, you must be within the range of the artillery!”

"Okay!" Anfei Yanggu agreed and hurriedly went down and prepared.

Eyes on the side said with anticipation: "Brother! Where is me? When will I attack?"

"You? Let's talk about it when my uncle comes!" Nurhaci said that, and turned around and left, leaving behind a depressed eun.

...

"Chagan Nur! Is this your siege? Three days are coming, it depends on what you are going to explain to Khan!"

After two consecutive days of siege, the troops sent by Chagan Nur seemed to be dealing with the situation. They were very powerful every time, but the attack at the city ended in a hurry.

A general couldn't stand it anymore and accused loudly.

Chagan Nur glanced at the talking general and said lightly: "Three days have not arrived, I am not in a hurry. Uenbato, why are you anxious?"

"You..., hey!" Uenbato shook his sleeves and ran back to the camp. It was obvious that he had gone back to complain.

Chagan Nur didn't care, stared at the castle, muttering to himself: "Come out! It should be out!"

The Tatars rushed to the city again, and the gate of the castle in Shawo Town suddenly opened, and more than a hundred half-armored cavalry rushed out and rushed straight behind the Tatars.

The cavalry team was not large, but they were fearless. They killed the Tatars among the siege of the city, and turned their horses to kill them back.

Chagan Naur, who was observing the situation of the battle, lit up his eyes, pulled out his steel knife and slashed forward, and ordered loudly: "The warriors of Tumot, break the city at this moment, and rush with me!"
