"Shoot the arrows!"

The second round of blows began, and another 7,000 arrows were fired, followed by 20,000 arrows in the second and third batches alternately, and round after round of arrows rained like a storm that would not stop, swept into the enemy's cavalry, and the herdsmen began to chill, and they desperately clung to the necks of their horses, praying for themselves to avoid the rain of arrows that would overwhelm them.

But it still didn't work, and every batch of crossbow bolts fired would cause heavy casualties, making it impossible for them to hide.

In just a distance of 100 paces, the Tang army fired three rounds of more than 80,000 crossbow arrows, and 19,000 soldiers were hit by the crossbow arrows, with nearly half of them suffering casualties.

When the last 20,000 cavalry rushed to a distance of only fifty steps from the Tang army, a snow-bright Mo knife was erected, and a murderous sword forest was formed in an instant.

The faces of the cavalrymen who rushed to the front were deformed, this time it was not because of excitement, but fear, extreme fear, they couldn't stop at all, and directly crashed into Xue Liang's sharp long knife, and the Hui soldiers screamed in fear and closed their eyes in despair.

'Poof! Burst! Burst! Burst! ’

With the sound of a series of long knives piercing the body, the 3,000 cavalry who rushed to the front died under the knife forest, and the 20,000 cavalry fought out from the left and right, surrounding the Hui army from both flanks.

At this time, the 20,000 cavalry led by Yao Jin came from behind, and the 20,000 Hui army was surrounded by 60,000 Tang regiments.

The brutal bloody battle, the merciless killing of the Tang soldiers, made the less than 20,000 herdsman soldiers completely collapsed, their will to fight was gone, crying to go home, desperately rushing outside, but the cruel war never mercy on the weak, the commander issued a killing order, the Tang soldiers began to mercilessly kill the chaotic enemy army, round after round of arrows shot in, one by one soldiers fell.

The encirclement became smaller and smaller, and the three thousand Mo sword army advanced like a wall, leaving behind a bloody corpse and bones wherever they passed, and the bodies of people and war horses were mixed together, and they were no longer distinguishable, and the blood gathered and flowed into small rivers.

After less than an hour of war, it went from a morale-boosting shock to a one-sided slaughter........

In just three days, the Tang army experienced two major battles in a row, killing 70,000 enemy soldiers and losing 3,000 of its own people, but it was also these two major battles that the men of the Hui Yao Luo Ge Department were basically wiped out.

The afterglow shone on the tragic battlefield, the remnant sun also seemed to be soaked in blood, dazzling red, the battlefield for more than ten miles was covered with corpses, groups of Tang soldiers piled up the corpses of the enemy, poured fire oil on them, and the grassland was full of billowing smoke.

At dawn the next day, the corpses were no longer visible on the battlefield, but the grass was still stained with blood, and the howls of wild wolves could be heard in the distance, and they were attracted by the pungent smell of blood.

'Woo-' The horn of departure sounded.

Guo Song left thousands of soldiers to pack up the horses and the wreckage, and he led 50,000 cavalry to gallop towards the royal city eighty miles away.

Along the way, there were empty Hui dome tents, and most of the furniture, cattle and sheep of the Hui people were not taken away, and they were evacuated in a panic.

In the afternoon, the distant Hanerduo Bali Wangcheng appeared on the grassland, and the Tang cavalry cheered and rushed towards the royal city.

Hanerduo Bali is actually a general name for a radius of 100 li, including the tent of the Hui king and the big tent of various nobles, but they did build a city, which took a hundred years to build, and continued to expand, and finally formed a large city with a circumference of 30 li, which was actually the treasury of the Hui Dynasty, a warehouse city, and no one lived there, and the Hui Khan and the nobles were still used to living in tents on the prairie.

But the soldiers guarding the city had already withdrawn, and the gates were closed, and the gates of every warehouse inside were tightly closed.

10,000 tents are still kept outside the city, here is the tent of the king of Hui, there are thousands of large tents, inhabited by the Hui Khan and his concubines and noble children, etc., Yao Jin led 20,000 troops to search the big tent.

Guo Song took 10,000 soldiers into the royal city, the royal city was actually built from the Turkic era, all of them were built with big bluestone, the city wall was very tall and strong, the warehouses inside were also built with bluestone, there were thousands of warehouses enough, the amount of work was amazing, it can be seen that it was built for a long time.

The soldiers slammed open the largest warehouse, the door creaked open, and the warehouse was divided into two, one side was full of sheepskins, good old sheepskins, I don't know how many years, bundles were stacked one by one, like a hill, there were tens of thousands of them, and on the other side were precious animal skins, tigers, wolves, leopards, bears, foxes, etc., all kinds of precious skins, there were hundreds of thousands.

Guo Song gently stroked a black bear skin, this bear is at least three meters high, the physique is very majestic, its skin has been completely peeled off, tanned very well, the bear hair is thick and soft, lying on it, as if people have melted.

"Your Highness, gold has been found in the warehouse over there!" A pro-soldier shouted.

Guo Song hurriedly walked out of the warehouse and came to a small warehouse, the warehouse was full of large wooden boxes, which were full of gold ingots, at least hundreds of large boxes, and there were sixty gold ingots in each big box, each gold ingot weighed about five catties, and a rough estimate showed that there were 30,000 catties of gold in it, nearly 500,000 taels.

At this time, Guo Song saw Kang Bao lying on the gold ingot and looked at it carefully, so he asked with a smile: "What secret did Lao Kang discover?" ”

"It's not a secret, I know where this gold came from."

Kang Bao scratched his head and said: "These gold are all stolen from the Sogdian countries, and I see the gold symbols of Shiguo, Kangguo and Anguo, and there should be gold from Tocharo." ”

Guo Song thought for a while and said, "Tocharian is rich in silver, and there should be a lot of silver here." ”

"There's silver!"

Kang Bao immediately said: "Next door is the silver storehouse, the amount of silver is at least ten times that of here, and then in the past, there was a jewelry storehouse, a porcelain and silk storehouse, and finally a jade storehouse. ”

There was actually a jade library, Guo Song suddenly became interested, "Go to the jade library and have a look!" ”

Everyone laughed, everyone knew that their lord was a jade idiot and had a unique love for jade.

But the jade in the jade vault disappointed Guo Song, the jade is basically Xiuyu, Xiuyu is serpentine jade, and there are a lot of jade transported back from Tocharo, that is, the later Afghan jade, all quartzite jade, not the tremolite jade he cherished.

At this time, the soldiers found a huge ice storehouse, located in Beicheng, which was full of frozen mutton and milk wine, which was the grain warehouse of Huifu.

In addition, there were millions of catties of pig iron and copper ingots, a large number of medicinal materials, as well as armor, leather armor, spears and war knives, as well as a large number of cowhides and horse skins.

The soldiers also found several treasury, with several million pieces of Kaiyuan Tongbao alone, as well as tens of millions of Western gold coins, as well as a cloth storehouse, which contained 13 million pieces of cloth and colorful silk.

"Your Highness, didn't you say that the national strength of Hui is insufficient?" Li Bing asked suspiciously, the abundance of belongings and materials in front of him made him really puzzled.

Guo Song said lightly: "Think about it, the Hui have inherited the wealth of the Turks, and they have accumulated hundreds of years of wealth, but half of the warehouses in Cangcheng are empty, maybe for them, this is a lack of wealth, you can imagine how huge the wealth they accumulated in the past, they snatched hundreds of millions of dollars worth of money and materials from the Central Plains alone, and extorted millions of horses and silks from the Tang Dynasty every year, which lasted for more than ten years. ”

At this time, Liu Bingyi, the marching army, stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, can you take wine and meat from the ice warehouse at night to reward the brothers?" ”

Guo Song said happily: "It's completely okay, the brothers are allowed to eat and drink tonight." ”

Liu Bingyi led the soldiers to carry the wine and meat, Guo Song went out of the city, at this time, Yao Jin had also completed the search of the camp, and seized a large number of Hui people who had no time to take away gold and silverware, and other materials were piled up.

More than 15,000 Han Chinese were also found, basically all of them were women taken from the Central Plains, most of them were twenty or thirty years old, ragged clothes, haggard faces, some of them were a little older, and even had been in Huifu for more than 20 years.

But no matter how they change, their slave status cannot change, they are all the private property of the Hui people, but the old and weak women and children of the Hui escaped in a hurry, and they could not take too much property with them, leaving them with other property.

The cries of 15,000 women shook the sky, they never dreamed that they would see the army of the Tang Dynasty to rescue them in their lifetime, and many women even fainted from crying.

In addition to the women, there were more than 3,000 Han Chinese men, who were also slaves, and were responsible for rough work such as herding sheep and logging wood.

At this time, Yao Jin smiled bitterly and said to Guo Song: "When I found these Han people, everyone was shocked, basically every middle family has a Han female slave, they are all hiding in small tents, after finding out that we are Tang Army, they all ran out and shouted, crying a lot, and finally gathered together I didn't expect there to be so many people." ”

Guo Song nodded and said: "Before leaving, Xue Changshi said that we will meet a lot of Han slaves in Huifu, I didn't take his words to heart, and now it seems that he really said it, but is there too few Han men, it can't be more than 3,000 people!" ”
