Compared to Zhou Shaoyu, who can merge one and only attack one city wall, it is impossible for the other three sides of the mountain not to be guarded, so he has to stay behind a few men and horses to defend in case there is a change, so the strength of more than 2,000 people, in this way, is even less than Zhou Shaoyu's, but it is better than the defender, and it is not a big problem to have fewer people.

If Li Xiuning's hundreds of people in army green camouflage uniforms were standing outside, Zhou Shan would not have reacted. However, Zhou Shaoyu regarded those who were elite, and camped in the mountains and forests in ambush behind as a rear hand, and those stationed outside the city in front of him were all strong men trained by the Lu family and the cottage.

As a result, Wednesday Mountain didn't know that Zhou Shaoyu was outside, and Zhou Shaoyu didn't know that it was Wednesday Mountain inside, and before the catapult was built, the two parties confronted each other directly.

In order to test it, Zhou Shaoyu asked people to write a letter of persuasion, and directly asked Yang Miaozhen to shoot an arrow at the city tower.

Is Wednesday Mountain likely to surrender? Naturally, it is impossible, and it is simply ignored. It wasn't until a few big guys were launched outside the city that Zhou Shan was dumbfounded, what the hell is this, a team of thousands of people, and they still have the ability to build catapults! That's an exaggeration.

Rumble! With Zhou Shaoyu's approval, Wan Qiao skillfully led people to debug the angle and conduct the first test firing, at present, there are a total of three catapults, the first one is thrown on the city tower, the second hit the city wall, as for the third, the angle is wrong, it is thrown higher, and it did not hit the city wall at all, but this is enough, as long as the opposite side does not come out, throw it slowly, not to mention that the catapult is still being built behind.

As for really coming out and fighting hard, although death and injury are inevitable, it is better than forcibly attacking the city.

The people in Dongshui County are panicked, they have just been occupied a few days ago, and they have also experienced uneasiness, but fortunately, the occupiers are not bandits, and they are even willing to send food, plus a few policies to benefit the people, and the people of Dongshui County have also initially accepted the rule of Wednesday Mountain.

As a result, it was only a long time, and he was actually attacked, and looking at the boulder thrown from the sky from the city, it was not too terrifying, and they all hid in the house in panic.

And Qiu Mingyuan, who was waiting in the east of the city, had a big change in face, because waiting for Zhou Shaoyu's army, Qiu Mingyuan couldn't get too far close to the county seat, and he didn't pay attention to the vigilance and changes in the city, but the sound from this was not big, but how could he not know what it was coming from.

"Chengxi, Zhou Gongzi is in the west of the city, get on the horse, go and report the news, they are all your own people, don't get hurt by mistake!" Qiu Mingyuan is in a hurry, once there is a mistake, the relationship between Zhou Shaoyu and Zhou Sanshan will not have any impact, but the relationship between the soldiers of the two parties will definitely be stiff, which is not a good thing.

It is naturally good for the armies of the same force to have some competition, but if there are contradictions, then coordination on the battlefield will easily go wrong.

At the end of the first round of test firing, Wan Qiaoqiao was calculating what with a charcoal pen, Zhou Shaoyu was sweating profusely watching this scene, and always felt that Wan Qiaoqiao's current physics skills were better than what he had learned! At the very least, Zhou Shaoyu couldn't count anything in this situation, he forgot about it, Zhou Shaoyu later threw away a few books, obviously Wan Qiaoqiao's self-study level was even higher than Zhou Shaoyu imagined.

And Wednesday Mountain on the city wall, but it is anxious to watch, really ignore it, a round of stones, morale can be thrown, then how to fight, fortunately, the number of opponents is not much, you can choose to attack, but Wednesday Mountain is also very cautious, did not choose to attack rashly.

"Xiao Zhao, you go out from the east gate, hurry up and go to Zhuzhu County for help!" Wednesday Mountain decided to endure for the time being, anyway, Zhuzhu County is not far away, when Zhou Shaoyu led his troops to arrive, to attack inside and outside, this battle will be won, and it can reduce casualties, if you are lucky, capture the craftsman who built the catapult alive, that is to make a lot of money.

"Well, brother-in-law, I'll go now." Xiao Zhao is Zhao Xianxian's younger brother, and now he is following Zhou Zhoushan, Zhou Shaoyu has naturally seen it, so he let him go.

Just when he set off from the East City Gate quickly, Qiu Mingyuan finally went around and saw Zhou Shaoyu's army, but he also knew that it was impossible to rush over so rashly, otherwise it would be useless to be killed by random arrows, but fortunately, several guards now understand the rules very well, and took out a small flag from the side of the horse and carried it behind him, and approached it smoothly.

"Haha, rare guest." Regarding Qiu Mingyuan's arrival, Zhou Shaoyu was very puzzled, it stands to reason that he should not be in the north, but no matter why he appeared here, but since he appeared, there is obviously a great hope to win over. "General Qiu came just in time, you have brought half a lifetime of soldiers, you are well-informed, what are your opinions on this siege?"

As soon as the words fell, Wan Qiaoqiao, who was not far away, nodded, turned his head and called: "The angle has been adjusted, no accident, it should be able to hit people, do you want to put it now?" ”

"But ......" Before the word 'to' behind Zhou Shaoyu was spoken, Qiu Mingyuan hurriedly interrupted: "You can't vote, you can't vote, it's a big misunderstanding, it's all your own people, your own people!" ”

Not long after, Zhou Shaoyu took a few guards and girls into the city, and then looked at Zhou Sanshan, this oolong trouble, if you really want to talk about it, Zhou Shan's desire to give a surprise can be understood, Qiu Mingyuan wants to further personally observe and understand, but the consequences can really make people speechless, fortunately there are no casualties, otherwise it will be a lot of fun.

After hearing the results of Wednesday Mountain's trip, Zhou Shaoyu was also surprised, he really didn't expect Wednesday Mountain to be so powerful, not only fooled Wednesday Mountain, but also brought thousands of people, in addition, he also trained an army of more than 2,000 along the way, although it is still far from Li Xiuning's standard, but after all, he has seen blood in the north, and his potential is much stronger than that of a truly newly recruited strong man.

"Occupy a county, your third uncle and I only know how difficult it is to manage, those nephews and daughters-in-law, I am convinced!" In the end, Wednesday Mountain said with emotion.

"Forehead ......" Zhou Shaoyu touched his nose, and said in his heart that in addition to Diao Chan, who is new and currently in charge of Zhuzhu County, the other chief officials Cao Jie and Xu Miaojin are not his wives and concubines, and Zhou Sanshan's nephew and daughter-in-law are not right, but there is no need to explain that Zhou Shancai will not believe it.

After that, Zhou Shan couldn't help but inquire about the catapult, and when he heard that Wan Qiaoqiao took the lead in making it, he sighed again, and then glanced at Li Xiuning, who was talking about the art of war with Qiu Mingyuan, and the former looked admiring. I had to make Zhou Sanshan feel infinite emotion in his heart, and said that his nephew, how many lifetimes of good fortune he had accumulated, was surrounded by such a rare woman in the world.
