Itaya and Liu Bang, and Tanaka.

A curtain (mangu) stretched to prevent the flying arrows is shelved into the wind over the walls.

Me and Tatsuyoshi walk like we sew in between.

There's smoke rising from far away under my eyes. There is the formation of the Qin army.

"Something like about a hundred thousand."

Tianye squeals sideways at that army that expands like a black belt.

I can see the siege weapon.

I guess the Qin army arrived late to carry them.

Besides, Zhang Han said that because of Wei's domestic mastery, he has not yet left Lin Jie.

Asked Tianxi about the siege weapon.

Cloud ladders or stone throwers that hang ladders on the walls. They also have a huge hammered car that destroys the castle gate.

I thought with my modern knowledge I could make something useful for defense, but I think there are already weapons that would have been used before firearms such as iron cannons were invented.

Honestly, I was playing BC.

Sometimes my knowledge is shallow, but the development of ancient China is amazing.

I've come up with a flame bottle that doesn't seem to be there yet, but I don't know much about it and fish and beast oil won't catch fire and burn.

I don't know how to refine oil.

I think I should have accumulated my knowledge in preparation for a different world reincarnation or time slip to make. Think!

Well, throw that stupid joke aside, and you'd better protect this castle with what you have now than the battle amateur has a weird opinion.

But... are you okay? This castle.

You noticed my anxious look.

"That doesn't mean the castle will fall easily. There is a way to protect it. This curtain and that wall are one of them."

That said, Tatsuyoshi refers to a hedge made of stone and dirt placed in front of the castle gate.

Many other earthbags and stones were provided for use when the walls collapsed.

"There's an unusual group called the Ink Family."

He was one of the hundreds of Sons ancestors of Inkko, and was active in castle defense battles everywhere during the Warring States as a specialty in castle defense despite ideological groups.

"They put up a non-offense and denied attacking, but not using force to protect. Excellent in civil engineering and metallurgy, informing the world about the structure of siege weapons, the development of castle guard weapons, and the art of castle guarding is still enough to be told."

But the Ink family's basic philosophy of "concurrent love interest" preached fraternity, fairness, and was not convenient for the exchangers of this era.

After the unification of Qin, it was oppressed and declined. It seems that now only technology remains and no one adheres to its teachings.

"Inoko apparently defended Song's castle across the ninth degree, attacked by Chu. I want to protect this castle no matter how many times they attack me."

Right.

Stop the Qin army here.

I have also requested reinforcements from Linzi.

Reinforcements will also come from Xiang Liang if you persuade him well.

That should make it nowhere near surrounding the castle.

It is not a desperate cage castle. There is hope.

"I, too, will do what I can...!

Stop in my mood and say next to Tian.

Tatsuyoshi responds with a smile that reassures the usual.

"Absolutely. There are many things you mainly want to do to treat injured people, replenish weapons, and manage stockpiles. Well, if we run out of people, let's also ask for defense. I'm not expecting much."

... Right.

Is there something you can do?

I'm more backward than fighting first.

Remove and respond to the shoulder strength that was feeling stiff.

"I know how poor I am, but you won't have to put it into words"

Me and Tatsuyoshi laughed at each other and went down from the walls to the castle.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Dear Yokoshi Tanaka-san!

When we reached the castle, soldiers rushed over. Looks like they were looking for us.

Apparently, a messenger came from the Qin army that would besiege him.

Hurry up during the sight and welcome Tian Yung and the messenger there who waited.

"Suggested surrender."

The messenger bowed his head to Tian Feng's inquiry.

"The leader, Tian Tian, has already fallen. With the life of our cousin Tatsuhei, Tatsuhei Tian, both arms of the late Tatsuhei Tian, I promise you the rest of the people who followed it."

The calm narrative of the messenger on this occasion stirs up defiance on the contrary.

It's a one-sided, non-negotiable thing. Not to mention two lives.

So you're not supposed to say 'yes, I get it'.

Does Tatsuyoshi have the same heart? Respond with a quiet but tense voice.

"I'm sorry, but I can't give you this life now. Until you fight the king's revenge, Zhang Han's neck, and the snake that nests in Xianyang."

Root of all evil, Zhao Gao (Kang Cancer).

Yes, it won't be over until we discuss that guy.

No, don't you have to discuss that guy to start?

You can't give up here.

The messenger seems distracted and the recommendation turns into blackmail.

"This castle in Toa is a must."

Now in this castle there are 20,000 of Tian Feng, 5,000 we have led, and about 5,000 of Tian Yu's defeated soldiers, even if the original defensemen are combined, 30,000 strong. Troop differentials are historical.

Still, Tian Feng also returns it with strength.

"Sun Tzu said that if you become ten, you will surround this, but 100,000 is not enough. We'll get more together and then we'll come back for advice."

"Damn, if General Zhang Han returns, it will happen..."

The messenger bit his teeth and left with a throwaway dialogue.

◇

"Oh, I said and drove back, but I don't even know if reinforcements are coming for sure, this caged castle. Is there hope at all..."

After the apostle's departure, Tian Feng accidentally reveals what had fallen behind his chest, back to back with his earlier strength.

It seems that Tian Feng, who actually hit the Qin army, was planted with a root of anxiety.

Tian Feng is the leader of this occasion. No, it becomes a substantially identical head.

If weakness infects everyone, it involves morale.

I punch my hands and start talking to Tian Yung as if he was weak.

"There is no way these simultaneous elites will lose to the Qin army in Zhang Han's absence. Didn't Zhang Han's previous Qin army continue to lose to peasants and displaced Chen Shengjun, and even take away Kankokan, who was described as a difficult attack?"

Keep up the usual good work and keep going.

"Zhang Han and used an ambush to attack the king. I thought if we did it right, we wouldn't win. Prepare for surprise raids, odds, and if you don't give up, your Highness will return with reinforcements."

"Um, the sky covered in cloudy weather will be clear someday too. Brother, now is the time to endure. There will always be a light of hope."

Tianye also rides my word and encourages Tianye to flourish.

The bowing Tian Feng puts his strength into the fist with a good,

"... right. I seem to think too much about dragging the defeat. Side by side, inside, if I get weak again, praise me again, as I do now."

That said, Tian Feng turned forward, me and Tian Yong smiled and nodded back.

◇ ◇ ◇

Earlier this morning, the drum rings, and the Qin army pushes over like Yunxia.

As the arrows released from the crossbow stagger, several cloud ladders and many ladders are hung, throwing boiled oil, stones, nets, etc. at Qin soldiers trying to climb the walls to chase them down.

A stone the size of the head of a person shot from a stone throw rocks the wall.

Fortunately, there is no collapsing damage yet.

A simple roof and wheeled broken castle gavel slowly move, slowly increasing the speed and approaching the castle gate.

"Aim for the broken castle hammer! Keep that thing away from the castle gate!

On the walls of the castle, a loud voice sounds beside the fields.

Tianye squeezes her bow herself along with instructions to the crossbowmen, releasing arrows toward Qin soldiers pushing the big Marutai's broken castle hammer.

Shortly after one Qin soldier falls on that flying arrow, an arrow pours down on the broken castle hammer.

Slipping through a crude roof, Qin soldiers fall one after the other.

The disoriented castle hammer then clashed and rolled over against the wall (sow) placed in front of the castle gate.

Cheers rose from above the walls.

"Well done! But don't be alarmed! They're still coming!

Without even trying to wipe the sweat that flows, Tianxi encourages the soldiers as they continue to shoot their bows.

"Whoa!"

The temperamental response of the dusty soldiers wooded over the walls.

"Enough arrows! Replenish!"

"Here!

In the meantime, I run round my back freaking out at the flying arrow, and I give him the arrow.

After that, I ran around the walls to see what I needed to refill.

This is the scariest time.

How many days have passed since the Battle of Cage Castle began?

The castle attack of the Qin army began the day after the Apostle visited.

The feeling of day has become dull in the days running around to prevent repeated attacks.

Still, the soldiers remain morale ahead of Tianye and adhere to this castle in Toa (Toa).

Fortunately, I'm not in the kind of situation where I participate in the defensive action yet.

I may climb walls to replenish weapons and confirm them, but I have been given a safer job compared to Tianxi and the soldiers standing on the front line.

Once I climbed the wall, I picked up the stone I was putting down and threw it outside.

I threw it unintentionally for intimidation, but when I thought it hit someone, I got a cold sweat.

If it was bad enough to hit, I'd be dead...... No, but he's an enemy...

... I would like to ask you conveniently to evacuate due to injury or something like that.

"I didn't hit anybody."

Tatsuyoshi, who was watching me throw stones, told me as he pulled his bow.

Honestly, I was more horrified than disappointed.

"But isn't the throwing motion smooth for a long time"

My boss once in a while forced me to take you to grass baseball early in the morning.

The motion of throwing round objects may be sophisticated.

If you throw ten of them, your shoulder will hurt.

I thought the stone-throwing clerk could help, but when I thought about it, the stone-throwing soldier used a stone-throwing string made of cloth and string, a so-called sling, to throw it.

I fly far more than I throw directly, and I don't break my shoulders.

Above all, throw to hit the enemy.

Not at the point where you're thinking about what to do if you hit like me.

... It won't help in the battle to make it, me.

"Don't push it. Even if you don't like it, the time may come for you to stand on the walls. I'll have you ready to do anything then. Well, so far, so good."

That's what Tianye says and laughs at.

Yes, I can't be alarmed at the moment, but it doesn't feel so chopped up.

well tolerated.

Reinforcements from Linzi will also be on their way.

That would seem to give me a lot of room.

I guess they'll be here soon.

And if Gaoling can pull out reinforcements from Xiang Liang...

I felt the light of hope, which was weak, was now clearly visible.

It's okay, we're all going home from here.

But further misery awaited us, shadowing the light of hope.
