Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 2154: Unable to Lower Her FaceEditor: Henyee Translations

Otherwise, military orders would be child’s play!

What prestige would he, Sun Pu, have in the future?

Moreover, the morale had already been raised, but this incident was a severe blow. It would be difficult to boost morale again.

”Continue attacking the city! Even without ladders or catapults, are we afraid with 50,000 men?! Lin Zhuo, assign someone to guard this area immediately and forbid anyone from approaching!”

”Yes, General!”

They accepted the situation and blamed Shao Yunduan, believing he had used some despicable means to trick them.

Was it to stop them from attacking the city?

Hmph, was that even possible?

Let Shao Yunduan see that all his efforts would be in vain!

However, this incident could not be leaked, or it would affect the army’s morale.

As for whether everyone would find it strange that the siege ladders and catapults were not used, it did not matter! If they found it strange, so be it. He would deal with it!

It was impossible to explain.

In any case, the ordinary soldiers did not dare to ask, and if the generals asked, he would not answer.

That morning, Sun Pu led his army to attack the city. The soldiers swarmed like locusts, charging forward like a surging flood.

Black weapons and gleaming white blades shone with a terrifying light under the sunlight.

However, the guards of Huaixi province stood on top of the city wall, bewildered and tense. According to their intelligence, the enemy planned a forceful attack with countless siege ladders and catapults. So why didn’t they see any ladders or catapults?

Could the information have been wrong?

Or did the enemy have other advanced tactics?

Zheng Sangge and Wu Guan, who were guarding the city, were equally stunned! They exchanged looks filled with shock and suspicion. Were the descendants of the Sun family so foolish? Did they think attacking a city was child’s play?

Sun Pu’s men swarmed over, carrying a huge battering ram in an attempt to break open the city gate.

Everyone used this as a cover and defense.

Without siege ladders or catapults, the siege seemed like child’s play.

Zheng Sangge was well-prepared and had sufficient weapons on the city wall. He showed no mercy, using the advantageous terrain to become even more invincible.

Qiao Xuan, in the backyard of the government office, enjoyed tea and flowers in the garden while observing the battle outside the city with her special ability.

She couldn’t make her actions too obvious, but she could subtly influence the battle.

As a result, Sun Pu’s army suffered even more and became the source of many jokes.

The soldiers carrying the battering rams fell one after another. The battering rams nearly crushed their feet, causing the defenders on the city wall to laugh uproariously!

This farcical siege lasted less than two hours before it ended. Sun Pu’s forces left behind a mess of casualties and retreated in disarray.

Out of the 30,000 troops involved in the siege, fewer than 2,000 were lost. However, their morale suffered a heavy blow! Everyone felt extremely aggrieved and depressed, as if they had put on a comical show for the enemy.

”Where are our ladders? Where are the catapults? Why didn’t we use them?”

”How can a siege without ladders and catapults be called a siege? What kind of joke is the general making?!”

”Useless! Really useless! Do they even know how to command a battle?!”

”I’ve never fought such a humiliating battle!”

”What kind of siege is this? This is a joke! The higher-ups are really not human!”
