There was a lookout at the head of the city, so naturally it was quickly discovered that Duan Ye's army was coming, and this time Xie Batian was patrolling the city in armor. Since the death of the little bastard, Xie Batian basically stopped talking, except for Song Hao's mechanical answer when he asked, and he gave orders as concisely as possible, General Xie, who was optimistic and cheerful in the past and liked to mingle with the soldiers, now his eyes have always been gloomy, and he is afraid of people when he looks at them.

Now that the enemy is attacking, Xie Batian just waved his hand, and the drums at the head of the city have already sounded, and the soldiers resting at the antlers quickly opened their eyes, got up, picked up their weapons, and entered the battle post.

The rolling wood and stones are in place, the knives are unsheathed and the arrows are loaded, and everything is ready.

However, the men and horses under the city are arrayed but not attacked, although the leader is dressed in armor and carries a long knife, but how do you look at how he doesn't look like a general, as for looking at the others, the brigade commander, the pawn commander, there are no decent generals at all, look at the soldiers, although they also have standard equipment, it looks like the morale is also good, but Xie Batian is a person who understands, and it can be seen at a glance that the combat effectiveness of this army is obviously inferior to Jiang Fei, Yang Ying and others.

So, what are they here for?

It's still the old rule, Duan Ye came to the city under the arch guards of Duan Ping and Hu Kai and a bunch of shield bearers, and said loudly: "I joined the army in the Governor's Mansion, the Jiuquan Army of the Western Expeditionary Army, and Duan Ye, the general of the Tiger Wing, came with the army today, and you will not open the city and surrender as soon as possible, so as not to suffer the people in the city!" ”

Now the people of Jiuquan City have long been troubled by the previous waves of never-ending harassment, and they don't pay attention to this kind of call at all, and Duan Ye has already been prepared, and it is impossible for the crossbowmen to plot against him, so Xie Batian is just checking the defense situation everywhere, and the soldiers are in place, and they are all calm when there is no order, so the city head is quiet.

This situation was also expected by Duan Ye, so Duan Ye was not annoyed by being hung there, but smiled faintly, waved his hand, and someone behind him had already carried a few trumpet-shaped iron pipes with large front and small back.

That's right, this is exactly the handwriting that Duan Ye specially invited Lu Guang to mobilize all the blacksmiths in the army to build a simple megaphone made by Starry Night.

You must know that in this era, the army was a completely independent group, and it was equipped with almost all the personnel that should be in the world, except for large arsenals, almost everything else. Since Duan Ye had already gained considerable trust from Lu Guang in the previous decisive battle with the Western Regions Alliance, this time Lu Guang didn't even ask, and directly agreed. Anyway, all this megaphone needs is iron, and it's not afraid of problems.

Besides, Duan Ye was only used temporarily, and the quality of the process was not considered at all, so it was quickly built, and after a little experiment, it was moved.

Now seeing Duan Ye's signal, a soldier who was quite delicate and had just been in the army for a long time walked up. This person's name is Chu Yunshen, because this soldier is rare and literate, and his face is quite gentle, so Duan Ye also remembered him.

"Adult, villain, I ......" After all, it was the first time for Chu Yunshen to face such an occasion, it was inevitable that he would have some stage fright, in fact, Duan Ye chose him to speak, many people were a little puzzled, Chu Yunshen spoke softly, this kind of thing, of course, you have to be rough and heroic, and only those with a big voice can do it.

However, due to the earthen megaphone, Duan Ye insisted on letting Chu Yun go deep, and seeing that he was nervous at this time, he smiled and said: "It's okay, haven't you already memorized everything, well, just follow it, just have a normal voice." ”

"Yes, Xiao Chu, my brothers are carrying this expansion for you...... What about the megaphone, the adults said okay, then it must be okay, don't you embarrass our Jiuquan army, ah? "The megaphone is still quite big for the effect, so it was lifted by a few big men, which is just convenient for Chu Yunshen to play.

"Hmm!" Chu Yunshen nodded, took a deep breath, looked at the majestic Jiuquan City, and said loudly: "Folks of Jiuquan City! You are too guarded by Song Hao, he is a liar! ”

After saying the first sentence, he was not nervous, under the effect of the megaphone, Chu Yunshen's voice spread far and wide, and the people in Jiuquan City may not be able to hear it accurately, but at least the soldiers at the head of the city can hear it word for word.

In order to ensure the effect of dissemination, Duan Ye asked Chu Yun to recite the shouting words for a long time, which probably meant that the Western Expeditionary Army returned to Liangzhou to help Liang Xi suppress Zhang Dayu's rebellion, and it was Song Hao who first attacked and insulted the Western Expeditionary Army for his personal ulterior purposes, and the head of the envoy is proof.

As for what purpose? But he didn't say more, and next, he emphasized that the Western Expeditionary Army did not commit any crimes in the autumn, and they stayed on the road at night and did not take a stitch from the people.

And in order to ensure that they could understand, Duan Ye racked his brains and wrote the most appropriate ancient vernacular, and Chu Yunshen was still a little knowledgeable in the end, and he memorized it word for word, and when Xie Batian, who arrived at the head of the city, noticed the strange eyes of the soldiers and hurriedly ordered the crossbowmen to release the arrows, Chu Yunshen had already finished reading and returned to the formation, and under the protection of the shield hand, the megaphone had been moved back.

There are no obstacles in the land west of the river, and the vastness is abnormal, so Chu Yunshen's words, almost all the soldiers at the head of the city heard it, even if they didn't hear it for the time being, Duan Ye was not worried, this kind of words will definitely be passed on, and ambiguous words such as "ulteriors" and "ill-intentioned" are most suitable for buttoning hats and making people unable to justify, I said that you are "unspeakable", and I didn't say your specific intentions, how can you argue? As soon as you open your mouth, it is easy to draw more and more black.

Everything had already been planned, and as soon as Chu Yunshen went back, Hu Kai and the others waved the order flag, and the whole army immediately shouted together: "The people of Jiuquan, you must hear clearly, the army loves the people, and there is no crime in autumn!" ”

The neat slogan, the neat rhythm, nearly 10,000 people chanted together, and the sound could be said to be resounding in the sky, and after several times in a row, it was immediately replaced with "freeze to death without demolishing the house, starve to death without plundering"

In short, Duan Ye has a lot of words here, and they have been designed a long time ago, they are all catchy and easy to remember, which is basically equivalent to telling the people of Jiuquan City that we are friendly drops, and they are by no means as bad as you have heard, and we promise not to infringe on you. And also made the boundaries clear: war is a military business, and civilians should not be held responsible, so that the people of Jiuquan City can rest assured.

These are still normal, but then, the whole army shouted together, "Song Hao is a corrupt official, has a family fortune of tens of millions, and is sanctimonious, but it is actually very bad." At this moment, even Xie Batian was dumbfounded, and the soldiers at the head of the city forgot their duties. Due to the restrictions of the times, they really don't understand that so many people run here with their guys, and they shout without fighting, what kind of truth is this?
