The fighting in Eastern Kara is going well.

On the frontal battlefield, Yue Fei had no opponents at all, and even a few so-called fortified cities were as fragile as tissue paper in front of the Song army's medicinal powder.

However, the resistance of the Dongkala people is quite bloody, and this is also true!

Especially after the Western Expeditionary Army firmly implemented Zhao Gou's established policy of faith, there were really many people who risked their lives to resist to the end.

It's just that their stubborn resistance is really useless.

In addition to making the Gaochang people who followed the army of the western expedition all the way laugh, it was to make the large number of rangers recruited from the grassland of Saibei rejoice.

Because the more fierce the former's resistance, the more they burn and kill, the more wealth they can grab and the more exploits they can get.

With a "boom", a city wall was blown down, and the Gao Changbing and Saibei rangers, who were the vanguard of the army, rushed in like a flood that released the gate.

These days, the city is doing everything it can to resist desperately.

Whether it was the Saibei rangers who arrived first, or the Gao Changbing who arrived later, they were helpless. Until the Song army led by Li Yanxian arrived, they just dug a few tunnels to reach the city, stuffed a few coffins of medicinal powder, and covered up the sealed soil.

After a few loud roars, the walls that had been strong were torn down like pieces of paper.

Li Yanxian didn't need to exert much effort, just asked Niu Gao and Wang Deer to lead a part of the soldiers and horses into the city to supervise, and victory was within reach.

The Gao Chang soldiers and the Saibei rangers would 'pacify' the city with great enthusiasm.

Those who surrendered were beaten into slavery, all those who resisted were killed, all the nobles were killed, and all the rich were plundered......

Anyway, half of the large amount of loot belonged to the Song army. The other half of the gold, silver and jewels that fell into the hands of the Gao Chang soldiers and the Saibei rangers would also be sold by them to the merchants who accompanied the army, in exchange for better armor and swordsmen and better wine.

And all the merchants who accompanied the army were imperial merchants.

They are a group of black-hearted maggots, shamelessness and greed are the most basic labels of imperial merchants, and it is thankful that ten worth of wealth can be exchanged for two points from their hands.

However, Gao Changbing and Saibei Rangers had to accept the exploitation of the imperial merchants.

Because they were not Cossacks, no one believed that after his death, the wealth, horses, and all his possessions would be brought back to his hometown by his companions, no less than a child, to his children and families.

Therefore, if there is wine today and drunk today, just like a mercenary, like a sailor on the sea, before the next war comes, spending the last penny in his hand is the choice of many Gaochang people and Saibei rangers.

Anyway, if they die, their families will get a good pension.

Only those nobles who have more free space will keep some precious items. However, the wealth of the Gaochang and Saibei rangers also included many Dongkala slaves, as well as cattle and sheep and other livestock, which could only be cheapened by the merchants.

The latter is definitely a fat and oily fat shortage.

As long as the Song army could win the war, they would be able to make a lot of money. Therefore, if they want to get such a good opportunity, they must first use a large sum of money to buy it from the imperial court - in the name of it: donation.

The walls fell, and the time of harvest came.

The corpses of the city fell to the ground, both of the enemy and of their own. The corpses of the enemy were piled up in a small slope under the ruins of the city wall, and the blood slowly flowed to the low-lying places, inadvertently forming small pools of blood. Fireworks billowed in the city, and the sound of killing was everywhere.

"It's so tenacious......"

Li Yanxian stood on top of the ruins of the city wall, silently looking at the city, there were still people resisting inside.

Especially in a few of those temples.

"If you die without repentance, you deserve to die!"

A Gaochang military general beside Li Yanxian looked at a few temples and said hatefully.

When the Qarakhanid army entered Khotan, didn't they abolish Buddhist temples and destroy Buddha statues, slaughter monks, and do more than they do now.

Now that the heavens have been robbed, it is just a report and a report.

"Are there any of the elders who are willing to surrender?" Li Yanxian looked at the unforgettable hatred on the latter's face and turned his head to face the other officials.

"Not yet." An official immediately replied.

The army marched all the way west, broke the city, destroyed a lot of temples, and captured many local elders, not all of them died and were martyred, in fact, there were more surviving elders.

Most of them were sent back to the rear, but some of the soldiers were still in custody.

It's just that none of them dared to 'risk the world's disapproval' and be the first to surrender to Zhao Song.

"There's no hurry." Li Yanxian felt that none of these elders had died at the beginning, and it would be even more impossible for them to take the initiative to seek death in the future.

In the final analysis, it is a pity for life, and to put it bluntly, it is a fear of death.

And as long as they have fear in their hearts, there will always be people among these people who will be used by the Great Song Dynasty.

"Hmph, it's still less dead. There will come a day when they will be killed! Li Yanxian's expression was very calm.

From the outset, the court limited its targeting to the rebellious population, which in itself left most of the Kara people aside. It is equivalent to eradicating the handful of people who are the most determined in the Dongkala resistance, which is beneficial to the 'stability' of the overall situation in the future.

The next day, the fastest group of Saibei rangers rode out of the city. It's possible that they've already disposed of all the money they've gotten, but it's more likely that they haven't gotten much out of the city before, so they've targeted the city.

The small towns and tribes outside the city are also a lot of wealth!

In the Celestial World, in addition to the Ghulam Guard, in addition to the national standing army directly controlled by Suldan, and the Iqtar cavalry represented by the landlords of Iktar, there is also an important component, that is, the irregular volunteer army led by the elders of the Order.

They come from a variety of sources, including nomadic tribe tribe militia soldiers, village militia militia, Na He Temple militia army, and volunteers from other heavenly countries, to a certain extent, this team is the heavenly folk 'crusaders'.

They come from a complex background, with a variety of arms, including infantry, cavalry, and archers, with a variety of weapons, most of whom do not have good armor protection, and only a few have a complete set of armor.

But they are also fierce, good at fighting, brave and aggressive.

Armed by the faith, they are very competent as rangers and scouts of the main force of the Heavenly Side.

Whether it is opening a road in front, conducting reconnaissance, or harassing the enemy's rear, or even looting and burning, causing panic among the enemy's people and weakening the enemy's overall strength, it is a good hand.

But correspondingly, this team also has the defects of lack of discipline and restraint.

Once the battlefield situation is unfavorable, the army's morale will be shaken, and in serious cases, it will even scatter; And when the battle is won, they will actively coax the spoils of war, and even do not hesitate to draw their own swords against each other, and will also kill prisoners of war indiscriminately.

Now, the Gao Chang soldiers and Saibei rangers in the Song army play the same role as these irregular volunteers.

They were not only cannon fodder for the Song army, but also played the role of sharing sin and attracting hatred.

Most of the city destruction, burning, killing and looting were done by them, and it was natural that they would become the object of hatred and curse among the people of Dongkara.

In this way, the hatred value on Song Jun's body was reduced a lot.
