What made the Qiang people excited was that the number of arrows in Xi Liang did not increase. There were still about two thousand of them.
At this moment, the one-eyed commander had confirmed that there weren't many soldiers in Xi Liang City!
Soon, the Qiang cavalry arrived at the gates of Xi Liang.
They were now making solemn vows and were extremely excited.
Because, until now, there were only these archers in Western Liang City!
Other than that, there were only about a thousand soldiers!
This made them almost certain that Xiliang was within their reach!
"Hahahaha, the heavens are on my side!"
"Who would have thought that the she-devil would sacrifice herself for the sake of killing!"
"I'd like to see who else can protect you!"
Commander One Eye had completely lost his fear. He glared viciously at Ma Chao and the soldiers on the city walls.
Right now, he wanted nothing more than to charge forward and tear Ma Chao and the rest to shreds.
So that he could comfort the souls of the ten thousand men he had brought with him!
Originally, Commander One Eye did not have much hope. He thought that it was good enough that he was still alive.
But now, he finally saw hope!
"Just wait for your death!"
Commander One Eye was extremely excited. He immediately gave the order to prepare for the siege.
Then, Commander One Eye dragged a soldier over.
"Inform Commander Liu as soon as possible. Tell him to bring reinforcements as soon as possible!"
"Tell him that Xi Liang is defenseless. Continue to send reinforcements!"
The soldier hurriedly received the order and quickly urged his horse to gallop in the direction pointed out by the one-eyed commander.
At this moment, on the walls of Xi Liang.
Bai Feng looked coldly at the situation below and ordered the archers to stop shooting.
"Everyone inside, listen up!"
"If you know what's good for you, open the gates and surrender. I'll spare the lives of the people in the city!"
"Otherwise, when our cavalry breaks through the gates, this city will turn into a river of blood!"
When the one-eyed commander saw that the attack from above had stopped, he mistakenly thought that Ma Chao was afraid and immediately said proudly.
Commander One Eye knew that he had brought twenty thousand men with him. They did not have any siege equipment. They were the vanguard.
It would be very difficult to take down the city.
If the people of Xiliang surrendered before that, it would make things easier for them.
Therefore, Commander One Eye came up with this idea.
"Sir, should we make a move?"
"That's the guy. I'll take his head in two moves!"
Ma Chao said softly. He saw Commander One Eye's arrogance and was instantly enraged.
Bai Feng waved his hand.
"Wait, don't respond to him.
"When he gets anxious and gives the order to attack the city, then send the signal and let the cavalry in ambush attack."
Ma Chao was puzzled.
"Sir, why is that so?"
"This fellow has already sent the scouts back. They will be here soon. Why do we have to wait?"
"If we become passive, what if they attack the city?"
"These Qiang people have been on the battlefield for a long time. Their strength cannot be underestimated."
Bai Feng shook her head.
"Don't worry, they won't You're Qiang
"If I'm not wrong, these men are just the vanguard.
"Yue Ji has been the commander for so long. How can he not know how difficult it is to attack a city with cavalry?
"So, why would he only send twenty thousand men to attack the city? Isn't that just sending them to their deaths?
"There must be a large force of the enemy behind them.
"This guy won't dare to attack the city rashly. He can't bear the responsibility if there are casualties.
"If he attacks the city, he will definitely wait for the infantry to arrive.
"Don't worry, we have time to waste with them."
Ma Chao was stunned at first, then he said excitedly,
"As expected of Sir! I understand now! "
"Just let him wait here! We have time anyway! "
Bai Feng ordered the soldiers to wait here. If there was any movement below, they were to immediately send a signal.
They could not let the city gate be breached because they were waiting for the reinforcements.
That would not be worth the loss.
On the other hand, Bai Feng and the rest sat on the city wall and began to drink tea in a carefree manner.
After a long while, Commander One Eye, who had not received a response, turned red.
"Commander, why are we wasting time talking to them?
"Let's just charge in. They only have a few thousand men, what are we afraid of?"
At this moment, the Qiang soldiers at the side said loudly.
The one-eyed commander immediately glared at him fiercely.
"Do you think I don't know that they only have a few thousand men?
"Why don't you tell us?
Without siege weapons, how are we going to attack the city?
"If we force our way in, what if they are prepared and throw stones at us?
"Then are we going to sacrifice ourselves for nothing?"
The soldier was at a loss for words and remained silent.
The one-eyed commander sneered. He glanced at the soldiers on the city wall who were staring at him and said indifferently, "You're right.
"Just let them wait here."
"When Commander Liu's army arrives, it will be their time of death!
"I'd like to see how they can still struggle!"
The soldier was overjoyed.
"Commander, you are wise!"
Just like that, the twenty thousand cavalrymen and the two thousand archers on the city wall glared at each other.
No one dared to act rashly.
"Just as Sir expected, this guy doesn't dare to attack!"
"Let's just wait for their main force to arrive!"
Ma Chao was excited, but then he said worriedly.
"But Sir, there's something I don't understand.
"Yue Ji has a hundred thousand men under him. Even though we lost ten thousand men, he still has ninety thousand men.
"What if they turn out in full force?
"We only have ten thousand men!
"Why don't … Sir, I go and call the Xiliang Cavalry over?"
Bai Feng shook his head.
"No.
"Don't underestimate the soldiers in my hands."
"I'll let you see it later."
Ma Chao chuckled dryly, but he was still worried.
Bai Feng and the others had relied on these ten thousand cavalrymen to defeat Li Yuanhong's army.
But now, it was different!
At that time, they had defeated the enemy one by one through various night attacks.
But now?
They were facing the enemy head-on!
What would happen if they attacked ninety thousand men? How were they going to win?
No matter how powerful an army was, they couldn't defeat ninety thousand men with ten thousand!
Moreover, Bai Feng had sent two thousand archers to set fire to the local supply camp!
In other words, they only had eight thousand cavalrymen who could fight against such a large army!
Eight thousand cavalrymen …
How were they going to fight?
No matter how powerful Bai Feng was, he couldn't be that powerful, right?
How were they going to win?
