Chapter 305 Surrounding Three Que One

"Jie Shuai, my subordinates are not considerate and underestimated the power of the explosion, which has caused our siege troops to be accidentally injured. Please punish them."

Seeing Gordon kneeling in front of him on one knee, Shao Shude quickly helped him up, "No one has ever used this kind of magic weapon. It is a great achievement to be able to explode the city wall. The ten generals of Ge are not guilty. I will repay you to my fifth brother."

What I thought was that most of the people who were accidentally injured were the suicide squads, which was not very important.

These c4s were not specially made by Xiaoshuai. It was when Xiaoshuai first went to the newly built emirate and happened to meet them at Tong Shao’s father-in-law’s father-in-law, so he moved them over.

I originally thought that if I needed to attack the cannibals, it might be useful. As a result, Tuss was solved by rocket launchers. The capture of Tehran and Isfahan was Pei Xingjian's rapid military strategy, and the capture of Avas City was Wang Xiaoyun's credit.

After the battle was over, Xiaoshuai handed over these artifacts to Wall. If the fourth brother needed it, Wall could judge the timing of use by himself based on the situation. If not, he would bring it back quietly.

When Wall was killed and Bai Qiwen defected, the right to use this thing was handed over to Gordon. The number of artifacts was limited and should not be used lightly. It was not until the general attack was frustrated that Gordon took it out.

Even Xiaoshuai didn't know the power of this thing. Although he tried one, it looked very powerful. But blowing stones on the plains and blowing city walls were two different things. Gordon didn't know how much it was appropriate to use. In order to ensure the effect, he got it all. Well, the effect was very good.

After chatting with Gordon about the origin of the new explosives, Shao Shude looked up and saw that Xu Hao's first-row team had successfully attacked the city.

Xu Hao is Shao Shude's first personal captain. The seventh among the sworn brothers is still very relieved about his bravery, but the attack was too smooth, right?

The hidden crossbows guarding the city were already controlled, and Mu Aviye's army also rushed into the city. Seeing that the enemy's resistance was very weak, and the tenacity when defending the city were simply two troops. Could it be that Ali had any tricks?

However, there are 100,000 troops here, and the city is broken. Seeing that the troops are rushing into the city continuously, there are already fires rushing into the city, and the enemy seems to have no backup plan.

The fire in the city was released by Muaweiye's troops. Shao Shude's troops had high military salaries and strict military disciplines, so they would not rob. However, looking at the world, only Xiaoshuai's troops could compete with them.

In addition, even the benevolent and virtuous army of the Tang Dynasty could not avoid looting in war.

This is a dark ancient times. Except for the personal parts of the generals, personal soldiers, or the emperors and kings' guards, most of the other soldiers had very low military pay. The servants did not even pay military pay, but they all depended on themselves to grab it.

Therefore, the wars in ancient times were full of blood and violence. It was not a joke that bandits passed by like combs, and soldiers passed by like combs. Every time the dynasty changed, the population would decrease greatly, and it was full of blood and tears of ordinary people.

Great figures such as Alexander conquered all directions and left their names in history. What is not written in history is the rubble left by conquest and the extinction of civilization.

That is, before the siege, Shao Shude and Muaweiye agreed that Muaweiye's soldiers were only allowed to steal the property of heretics, and the Greeks, Bathians, Persians, Kurds, and Jews in the city were able to preserve their leaders.

However, the cannibals in the city are not all heretics. There are also many Sunni believers, but they cannot resist Ali's force and have to obey the people. Now they cannot distinguish clearly, and both jade and stones are burned.

Shao Shude was able to restrain his soldiers, and Xiaoshuai's reinforcements were obedient, but he could not control Mu Aviye's people. In the eyes of Umaya soldiers, this is normal, and this is how the battle is fought.

Abu's men were arranged on the other side of the Tigris River and could not participate in the robbery in the city. They were secretly dissatisfied when they suddenly saw dozens of large ships from the Water Gate in the city rushing out, full of soldiers.

Abu hurriedly ordered his men to set up formations and attack enemy ships with bows and arrows. At the same time, infantry formed an array on the river beach to prevent the escaped enemies from rushing ashore.

Unexpectedly, the enemy ship did not fight back at all, and did not land. At the fastest speed, he fled to the lower reaches of the Tigris River.

Abu's archers shot several rounds of arrows and sent light cavalry to shoot along the river. The Ali's men on the boat kept falling into the river. The river water was dyed red, but they ignored it and were determined to escape.

At this time, Shao Shude finally saw the fleeing enemy. With the order flag, Tian Xing's light cavalry also chased after him and shot along the river.

No wonder the resistance in the city was so weak. It turned out that Ali escaped from the water with his confidants when he saw that the situation was not good.

The waterway was actually a flaw left by Shao Shude on purpose. The so-called surrounding three quarts and one is to give the soldiers in the city hope to escape and reduce the difficulty of siege, which has indeed had an effect.

Shao Shude thought for a while and called Li Yanling who was not involved in the battle. The lucky guy's arrow injury had healed. Shao Shude gave instructing him that Li Yanling led 7,000 people from the headquarters and followed Tian Xing, and chased him along the river.

Afterwards, the prisoners were interrogated and learned that there were 7,000 Ali's confidants who escaped, and counted the corpses in the river. Although many of them floated downstream, there could be about 2,000. That is to say, after the city was broken, Ali took about 5,000 confidants and escaped by boat.

Tian Xing's cavalry chased him for thirty miles before returning, while Li Yanling's troops were stationed behind enemy ships at normal marching speed and chasing them along the river.

Although the enemy is getting farther and farther away, the cities on both sides of the river have been occupied by Persian volunteers. The enemy's defeated soldiers have no siege equipment, so it is very difficult to capture them in haste. Li Yanling's pursuers are behind him, so the enemy probably dare not go ashore and stay easily.

Muaweiye and Abu each sent 5,000 cavalry to pursue him, vowing to eliminate the remaining troops of Ali, and soon surpassed Li Yanling's troops.

Li Yanling was not in a hurry to chase him. His mission was only to ensure that the city by the river was not destroyed by Ali.

As for Ali running away, he lost his fundamental land and had no support from his subjects, so he could no longer cause great waves. The Daxia army actually didn't mind him running away. However, Abu and Muaweiye wanted to take Ali's life immediately.

This is a sect dispute between the great cannibals and has nothing to do with Shao Shude. What he cares about is that Taixifeng has won, and he finally has a fundamental place to start a business.

Xu Hao led his men to attack, captured the most difficult city lord's mansion, seized a batch of gold and silver that Ali had no time to take away, and was rewarded by Shao Shude to Abu. He did not participate in the robbery, so he had to give some money to his subordinates.

Muaweiye's troops were the main force to attack the city, plundered and seized a lot of money. Except for the 5,000 people involved in the pursuit of Ali, the other troops returned to Syria with spoils.

Before leaving, Muaweiye signed a five-year peace treaty with Shao Shude as an Allied army. Umaya was newly established and the Daxia army had just occupied the Mesopotamian Basin and needed to establish and consolidate the rule. The two sides hit it off.

Shao Shude was not greedy for money, but Fan He's troops who invaded the city completely captured and protected the three thousand craftsmen in the city. This was what he valued the most.

After the city was broken, the Taixifeng fires soared into the sky and was robbed by the Umayyads. This was actually Shao Shude intended to indulge it.

It not only allows the people to see the difference between the Great Xia army and the Great Cannibal, but also facilitates future rule, appropriately weakens the Great Cannibal in the territory, but also facilitates the balance of the forces of various ethnic groups in the territory.

In fact, after a month of bombardment, the Daxia army was able to defeat Taixifeng. The reason why they had to wait for the arrival of two reinforcements was that Shao Shude had thoughtfully thought about it. The bad guy asked the reinforcements to be the one who cleaned up the mess himself, and it would be much easier to get the people's hearts.

This is why Xiaoshuai gave the Mesopotamian River Basin and the Old Place of Dashi to his fourth brother. The complicated situation here gave him a headache.

Taixi sealed the city and the slaughtered cannibals reached 70,000. Many of them were not heretics, but were unjustly killed by Umaya soldiers. Even if the Xiaoshuai knew that he should do this, he would not be able to do it. As a native of time and space, Shao Shude did this without any psychological barrier.

Five days later, Umayyad and the Sultanate soldiers of the Great Food who were pursuing Ali came back. Ali's ship had already run away. After all, the cavalry could not walk day and night like a ship. Li Yanling, who was still chasing Ali, got the latest news from Ali through scouts and telegraphed Shao Shude.
