Chapter 391: City Wall Stew



After eating something simple, Xiong Tingbi walked out.

After walking out, Xiong Tingbi saw Li Guangrong head-on.

Li Guangrong had a sullen face at this time, as if everyone owed him a fortune.

Seeing his expression, Xiong Tingbi knew that something was wrong.

"What happened?" Xiong Tingbi looked at Li Guangrong and asked with a smile.

"General, those wild boars are really going too far!" Li Guangrong said with some helplessness and resentment: "They are cooking right there in the open without even a whim. They are clearly looking down on us."

After hearing this, Xiong Tingbi's face not only did not show anger, but became even more solemn.

At this point, Xiong Tingbi was already certain that Nurhaci had come here this time with the intention of luring him out of the city. From Nurhaci's actions yesterday at the city gate, it was clear that he was deliberately trying to lure him out.

Seeing Li Guangrong's angry expression, Xiong Tingbi understood that Nurhaci's actions were effective. But the more this happened, the more he couldn't leave the city.

Glancing at Li Guangrong, Xiong Tingbi said, "Let's go up to the top of the city wall and take a look."

"Yes, Marshal." Li Guangrong agreed and excitedly led the way.

The two of them soon reached the top of the city wall.

Looking over from the top of the city wall, you can clearly see what the people on the opposite side are doing.

Just as Li Guangrong said, these people were cooking with impunity, clearly looking down on the army in the city. Their swaggering posture seemed to say: You just don't dare to come out and fight us.

After taking a look, Xiong Tingbi instructed Li Guangrong, "Send the order down and have the cooks stew the meat this morning. Bring up the big pot and the meat. We'll stew the meat on top of the city wall."

After hearing Xiong Tingbi's words, Li Guangrong's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Just now, Li Guangrong thought that his commander-in-chief was going to go to war, but who would have thought that he would say such a thing.

Bai is so excited!

The stew on the city wall was clearly a show for those wild boars. Aren't you eating? We eat too; not only do we eat, we eat better than you.

This is actually what Xiong Tingbi meant. If both sides were cooking on the city wall and did not start fighting at all, Xiong Tingbi was confident that they would be eaten to death.

Is it about who has more food?

See who can last longer.

Damn it, I’ll wear you out until you die.

Soon, someone brought up the large pot and the meat. Wood was used to light the fire, and water quickly boiled in the iron pot. After the seasoning was added, the large piece of meat was cooked in the pot.

Soon, the fragrance spread over the top of the city and drifted away with the wind.

Nurhaci stood on the top of the mountain, smelling the aroma of stewed meat, with an ugly expression on his face.

He could certainly see what the Ming army was doing on the city walls. They were cooking meat, and the aroma wafted over.

"Father Khan." Amin came to Nurhaci and said, "The Ming army will not be fooled."

"Then let's eat, and then we will attack the city." Nurhaci said with a serious face.

Xiong Tingbi, standing on the top of the city wall, holding a large bowl and gnawing on a large bone, said to Li Guangrong beside him: "Go find some loudmouths and shout to me over there, saying there is meat in the city. Come and eat it if you dare."

Li Guangrong glanced at Xiong Tingbi and quickly agreed, "Yes, Marshal."

Soon, the soldier with the loud voice was called over.

A group of people stood in a row on the top of the city wall and shouted to Nurhaci: "There is meat in the city, come in and eat if you have the guts!"

They shouted over and over again, becoming happier and happier, their laughter spreading far and wide, the mockery so obvious.

Nurhaci was also eating at this time. Hearing the shouts of the Ming army, Nurhaci's heart sank.

I still underestimated Xiong Tingbi. This blind bear really did everything he could to achieve his goals. He was completely different from the previous Ming Dynasty civil servants.

"Father Khan." Seeing that Father Khan's face was not very good, Amin called out cautiously.

"It's okay." Nurhaci waved his hand and said, "Let's get our artillery ready. We'll attack the city after dinner. Let's fire a round of artillery first."

Whether it was the capture of Tieling or Kaiyuan, Nurhaci had captured a lot of artillery in previous battles. Nurhaci had experience in the Ming army and naturally knew a lot about firearms.

This time Nurhaci also brought his artillery, a total of thirty-six pieces. Some of these were captured in battles large and small, and some were copied by Ming craftsmen who were captured and enslaved.

Although the number of artillery pieces was small, they were extremely powerful when attacking the city, which was also the source of Nurhaci's confidence this time.

If Xiong Tingbi cannot be forced out of the city, then use artillery to attack.
