The flames flickered inside the tent. Black shadows danced in the candlelight.
Beishan looked at Gurtai and said, “For this attack on Cangzhou City, the Huyan tuo Tribe must follow my orders completely.”
Gurtai didn’t like it, but he still nodded.
Beishan then asked, “How is Cangzhou’s defense?”
Gurtai explained everything from the previous few days of attacks.
“Exploding gunpowder jars?” Beishan asked.
Gurtai nodded. “Yes, those jars are powerful. Hundreds of our archers were killed by the blasts.”
He added, “Also, the defenders are wearing very strong armor. It looks like they’re Prince Qi’s elite troops.”
Beishan frowned. “We attack tomorrow morning. I want to see it for myself.”
Gurtai nodded again.
This time, Beishan had personally led fifty thousand elite barbarian soldiers. Alongside them were eighty thousand slave soldiers, and with Gurtai’s own troops, the total number of slaves reached over a hundred thousand.
