"Descendants of Genghis Khan?"

"Genghis Khan...... Sizzle......"

Listening to the words of the man who was obviously dressed as a Luzon, the reactions of the people on the city wall were also different.

Prince Karui touched his cheek with his right hand with a thoughtful expression.

But Castro and Mitchell and the other three were stunned for a moment, and then their faces changed drastically.

Mitchell's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he shouted in a trembling voice, "Mongols...... They are Mongols! ”

Castro, as their boss, was naturally a little calmer than them, although he was also a little shocked, but he did not lose his temper, but there was also a trace of panic in his eyes.

Genghis Khan, Mongol cavalry.

These terms may be unfamiliar to the Luzon people, but to Westerners, the terms Genghis Khan or the Mongol cavalry are as synonymous with demons as they are for them.

In the Western world, so to speak, the history of the thirteenth century is almost a tragic history of the slaughter of the Mongols, and almost all of Europe trembled under the iron hooves of the Mongols.

Look at the places that were conquered by the Mongols, who defeated the combined forces of Western Liao, Khorezm, Poland and the Holy Roman Empire through three expeditions to the west, and defeated Hungary and conquered Bulgaria as far east of Venice in the Italian peninsula.

They wiped out more than forty countries, and for this purpose they built a vast empire of 24 million square kilometers.

According to historical records, from the establishment of the Mongol Empire to its collapse, as many as 200 million people were killed by them, and many races even disappeared in the long river of history because of this.

Of course, this figure may not be so accurate, but even so, the sheer size is enough to frighten anyone, so much so that even after hundreds of years, the nightmare of the Mongols still haunts the minds of Westerners.

As a soldier who is familiar with history books, Castro and Mitchell and the other three naturally know a lot about this history, so as soon as they heard that the cavalry on the opposite side was actually the descendant of the Mongol Empire that swept the world, the memories hidden in the depths of their memories immediately popped up.

"God, those cavalry are actually Mongols, why didn't we receive any information beforehand?" Mitchell grabbed his hair hard and let out a groan of pain.

"They're going to kill us!" The other lieutenant also said with a pale face.

"Shut up!"

Castro glared at the two men fiercely and reprimanded: "The Mongol Empire has long since perished, don't scare yourself with the history of hundreds of years ago, you must remember that we are the loyal warriors of His Majesty Philip IV, have you forgotten the oath you took when you put on this military uniform?"

If any of you think that he has lost his courage, then please take off this uniform and go back to Spain, there is no need for cowards in the army of His Majesty Philip IV! ”

Looking at the two people behind him who were scolded and silent, Castro softened his tone and said, "Don't forget, it's not the thirteenth century anymore. Muskets and artillery are the most important factors that lead to victory in wars, and we don't need to be afraid of those armies that have been swept into the dustbin of history, you know? ”

"Understood!" Mitchell and the lieutenant beside him also relieved themselves after being scolded, and quickly puffed up their chests and replied loudly.

"Humph!"

Castro snorted lightly, pointed to the Mongol cavalry under the city, and said: "Later, you should carefully observe and see the combat characteristics of this army, and then write a detailed report, and we will report the situation here to His Excellency Governor Fidel." ”

At this, Castro's eyes narrowed, and he really wanted to see how these Mongol cavalry, who had come from afar and only had light equipment, attacked the city.

Not surprisingly, Prince Karui refused the persuasion of the Mongols, more than 300 years ago, when the Mongols swept the world, Luzon was still an uncivilized barbaric land, and the Mongols' naval strength has never been very good, and they can't take care of it, so the Luzon people naturally don't know anything about the history of the Mongols.

Soon, the cavalry who went to persuade us to surrender came back and reported to Wu Keshan: "Lord Taiji, those people who sent us refused to surrender, do we need to attack the city immediately?" ”

"Attack your head." Wu Keshan scolded angrily: "We don't have anything now, are you going to use your head to hit the city wall?" ”

"So what do we do?"

"Well...... this"

Wu Keshan stared at the city wall in the distance and groaned, to be honest, in Wu Keshan's opinion, the city wall of Apari is very simple, the height of the city wall is only less than two zhang, that is, the height of more than three meters, such a height is simply ridiculous in the eyes of Wu Keshan, who is used to seeing the tall cities of Jinzhou and Shenyang.

But then again, no matter how humble a wall is, it's still a city wall. And the task of the cavalry has never been to siege the city, and they have come from afar without any engineering equipment in their hands, so it is impossible to attack the city with these 3,000 men in their hands.

However, after all, Wu Keshan is an old man who has been in the career of Rong Ma for more than ten years, and after thinking about it for a while, he sneered: "Do these Luzon people think that they can block our way with these cities?

Don't they like to nest in the city, then let's force them out. Amur, you take a thousand men to hold this place, and I take the others around to have a look, and I don't believe that these native Luzon people will withdraw everyone into the city. ”

"Understood!"

Soon, the Luzon soldiers on the city wall found that the Ming ** team under the city had divided most of the centaurs and galloped along both sides of the city wall, and soon disappeared from their sight.

When he saw this, Prince Karui was still a little curious, "What do these Mongols want to do?" Don't they want to attack the city? ”

Mitchell was also a little puzzled, "Why did those Mongols suddenly run away, could it be that they want to ...... I got ......."

"I got it......"

Several voices in unison suddenly sounded, and the three of them glanced at each other, and immediately remembered the siege tactics used by the Mongols recorded in history.

Historically, the Mongols used to plunder around the besieged city before attacking the city, arresting all the people around it, and then driving the people to attack the city.

At that time, the Mongols will take the opportunity to send siege troops to launch a general attack on the city, and all kinds of ladders and even engineering equipment will rush up, so that the city will be quickly captured.

If the defending general ordered the arrows to be fired at the driven civilians or attacked as usual, that would be fine, at least it would consume the physical strength and arrows of the defenders, and would be equally beneficial to the besieging side.

Mitchell whispered to Castro, "Colonel, should we warn that Prince Karui." ”

Castro said lightly: "Is the reminder useful?" ”

Mitchell was stunned, yes, what if he knew? Could it be that Prince Karui still had the courage to lead his army out of the city to stop them?
