Outside the city. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Daoud, who was riding on horseback, heard the sound of bows and arrows and a lot of screams coming from the city, and he only felt cold in his hands and feet, and his mind went blank. In the Great Food Kingdom and Byzantium, he had never seen this kind of oriental-style city, and he had never seen an urn city at the city gate, he didn't know what the urn city was used for, but now he finally knew one of the functions of the urn city.

The remaining more than 2,000 food troops outside the city could only watch as nearly 3,000 companions were locked up in the urn city and became a living target, being shot alive by the Tang army, but they could not do anything, and everyone kept muttering: "Oh, Allah, forgive us for our sins!" ”

At this time, a few light horsemen galloped from behind, and one of them rode to Daoud's side and panted and reported: "General, it's not good, the Tang army in the rear has caught up, if we don't evacuate quickly, it is very likely that we will be entangled, and then we are only afraid of more evil and less luck!" ”

Daoud's face changed drastically, he knew that this time he was completely defeated, the defeat was miserable, there were more than 10,000 people when he set off, but now there are only more than 2,000 people, relying on these people I don't know if I can return to the Great Food Country alive, if on the way back, the Zhaowu countries will jointly send troops to block it, I am afraid that the hope of these people returning to China will become slim, but he can't stay here and wait for death, even if the road back is full of crises, he must take these remaining soldiers back to the Great Food Country.

Daoud took a deep breath and shouted to the head of the city: "Who is the general of the Tang Army in the city?" Please come out and answer! ”

After his words were translated into Chinese, Wei Meng appeared at the head of the city and said loudly: "I am Wei Meng, the right guard of the Tang Dynasty, Daoud, do you think you can return to the Great Food Country alive?" It's better to drop your weapons and lead your troops to surrender, I can make a proposal to my general to let you live! ”

Daoud asked, "Your general is Zhao Ziliang?" ”

"Not bad!"

Daoud sighed: "Tang Guo is really talented!" ”

After speaking, Daoud's tone changed: "This time my Daoud was defeated, but I will not admit defeat, please tell General Zhao Ziliang, in the future, my Daoud will definitely lead the troops to ask him for advice!" ”

"I'll pass it on!"

Daoud pulled the reins and shouted, "Follow me around the city of Tuozhi and retreat south!" ”

Wei Meng and Mo Hezhu Tutun also relied on a sneak attack to capture Tuozhi City, and soon after the battle ended, after everything was arranged, Daoud arrived with men and horses, after a long run and a big battle, the Tang Army, the Stone Army and the horse bandits were very tired, and at this time they could only watch Daoud retreat south with the remaining more than 2,000 people bypassing Tuozhi City and could not do anything.

However, they believed that Daoud's withdrawal and return to China would definitely not go well, and they had no garrisons in other Zhaowu countries and Tocharian places to respond, and if the Zhaowu countries and Tocharian chieftains sent troops to attack, Daoud would not be able to return even if he did not die.

Although the Tang army was very tired, Wei Meng still sent 500 cavalry with sufficient physical strength to follow the Great Food Army, and Mo Heji Tutun also sent 200 people, a total of 700 cavalry to hang far behind the Great Food Army, not giving them time to rest.

Nearly 3,000 food troops were wiped out at once, so that the Tang army, the stone army and the bandits and robbers were very happy, at dusk, everyone sang and danced in the city, dozens of people in a group, around the fire to kill cattle and roast sheep, a jar of wine moved over, ready to celebrate.

Just when everyone was preparing for the bonfire party, Mo He Tutun found Wei Meng, Wei Meng saw Mo He Tutun, and asked with a smile: "King Shunyi doesn't go to settle the residents in the city, what is he doing here?" ”

Mo Heji Tutun looked at the Tang soldiers in the tent and stopped talking, Wei Meng waved his hand to a few soldiers when he saw this, and these soldiers quickly retreated, and only the two of them were left in the tent.

Mo Heji Tutun said at this time: "General Wei, Xiao Wang wants to ask the general for a favor, but I don't know how to speak!" ”

Wei Meng smiled: "King Shunyi has something to say, just say it, it's not the first time you and I have dealt with each other!" ”

Mo Heji Tutun nodded and said, "Okay! The general may not know that after the big cannibals came over, they not only collected a lot of gold and silver from all over the Zhaowu countries and Tocharo, and these things were piled up in this city, Xiao Wang really didn't hide it, these materials, gold and silver money were worth the taxes of the entire Zhaowu countries for five years, enough to form 30,000 iron horses, because we had an agreement with those bandit and robber leaders in advance, after taking the city, the gold, silver, weapons and materials stolen by the big cannibals all belonged to them, If all these things are really obtained by them, my Shi Kingdom will definitely have no peace in the future, those materials contain a large number of weapons, bows and arrows, armor, plus incalculable gold and silver money, those horse bandits and robbers will soon be able to recruit troops and horses to expand their strength, and then I am afraid that the officials and troops of our Shi Kingdom will not be their opponents at all! ”

When Wei Meng heard Mo Hezhu Tutun say this, he also felt that the problem was a bit serious, but this was none of his business, these horse bandits and robbers were from the territory of Shiguo, what did they have to do with him? So he asked: "This matter is indeed very troublesome, could it be that the king of Shunyi wants to go back on his word and not fulfill his promise?" ”

Mo Heji Tutun was said by Wei Meng, and he immediately felt quite embarrassed, he said embarrassedly: "General Wei, it's not that Xiao Wang is unwilling to fulfill his promise, it's really that the amount of gold, silver and materials is too huge, if it is given to them, they only need to take some time to digest it, and they will soon be able to form an army that exceeds the number of officials and troops of my Shi Country, and then I, the king of Shi Country, am afraid that I will not be able to sit still!" ”

Wei Meng nodded and said, "I understand King Shunyi's concerns, and I understand them very well!" It's just that if you don't keep your promise, the leaders of the bandits are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they will give up? And now in this Tuozhi City, there are less than 2,000 people in your stone ****, but they have 3,000, can you move them? ”

"So, that's why Xiao Wang came to the general! How about a favor from the general, please? ”

Wei Meng remembered the massive amount of gold, silver and materials that Mo Heji Tutun said, his heart moved, and he asked, "What should I do?" ”

Seeing that Wei Meng did not refuse, Mo Heji Tutun knew that there was a drama in this matter, so he said: "Work with me to eradicate all these horse bandits and robbers!" As long as they are solved, the only ones left in their nest are some old, weak, sick and disabled, and the number is very small, and it can be easily solved. From then on, the caravans on the road from Whitewater City to Tuozhi City no longer had to worry about being robbed and attacked by horse bandits and robbers! After this incident, what about the elites and materials in the city, of which 20% went to the general? ”

"Twenty percent?"

"Yes!"

Wei Meng nodded and said, "Yes!" I'm Wei Meng, and it's enough to get two percent! But how much do you plan to give to my generals and the leaders of the Western Turks? You must know that they are all here to help you fight the Great Cannibal in Shiguo this time, you can't just leave them with nothing and let them go back empty-handed, right? The news that there is so much gold, silver and materials in the city is absolutely impossible to hide, if they get the news by then, it is absolutely impossible for you to swallow it alone, if you can't get it, hehe, these barbarian leaders are not vegetarian masters, if they don't make it possible for them to attack them in groups for this batch of things, I'm afraid that your Shunyi Wang's family will not even be able to save their lives, and the throne of the lord of Shiguo will also be obtained by others! ”

"Ahh ”

Where would Mo Heji Tutun have thought that this batch of gold, silver and materials might cause such a big disaster? He was greedy for this windfall, so he wanted to use Wei Meng's power to eradicate those horse bandits and robbers, but he didn't want this batch of things to be swallowed by him and Wei Meng at all.

Wei Meng thought for a while and said: "King Shunyi, if you want your family to be safe and sound, and still sit on the king's throne, the best way is to hand over this matter to my general, with the prestige of my general's in the Western Regions, those barbarian leaders will not dare to mess around after they have shared some benefits!" Now that you can keep the country of Shi and be able to sit in the position of the lord of the country of stone, you have already earned it, what do you want so much money for? Those barbarian leaders brought troops to help you this time, if you don't give them a little more benefit, can they give up? Spend some money to fight the disaster! ”

Mo Heji Tutun nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, what the general said is very true!" Xiao Wang listened to the general and handed over the matter to General Zhao for disposal! What about eradicating those horse bandits and robbers? ”

Wei Meng said: "This is easy to do, isn't there a bonfire party tonight?" You go and send them good wine and meat, and secretly gather troops and horses, and my side is also ready to block the four gates, and when they are drunk, we will send troops to attack, so that they will not escape!" ”

Mo Heji was overjoyed, and the two then discussed the details again, and agreed on a code to launch at the same time.

After nightfall, the city was bustling with activity, whether it was the Tang army, or the stone army, or the horse bandits and robbers, they all happily celebrated the victory, and the big cannibals collected a lot of fine wine, all of which were stored in the warehouse, and Mo Heji Tutun ordered them all to be moved out and sent to the place where the robbers and horse bandits gathered, and killed hundreds of cattle and sheep to reward them, these horse bandits and robbers stood with their own strong troops, and they had a lot of merit in this battle, so they gave up their vigilance, and drank wine and ate meat one by one with wine jars.

In the middle of the night, most of the horse bandits and robbers were drunk, the Tang army and the stone army launched at the same time, the four city gates were closed and additional troops were stationed, and the Tang army entered the city from outside the city and joined the stone army to gather and surround the horse bandits who had fallen to the ground.

The result can be imagined, within an hour, the battle was over, many horse bandits and robbers were killed in a drunken sleep, and some came to their senses when the Tang army and the Shi army surrounded them and resisted, but their resistance was in vain. There were also some sporadic horse bandits hiding, but the Tang Army and the Shi Army quickly conducted a city-wide search, and the bandits and robbers hiding in the homes of the common people were quickly searched and killed.
