The fall of the palace meant the end of resistance in the city, and Ashina Fumin was killed in a street battle. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, he had a chance, because the Tang army admired him quite a lot, and surrendered when besieging him, and allowed him to be an official, but Ashina Fuming did not accept it!

He was a foreigner and died in battle, but many of the officials of Shiguo surrendered and rushed to kneel down to surrender.

But half of the Stone King's Palace was burned to the ground, and the king burned himself along with the palace.

When the city was broken, the king piled up firewood and grass in the palace, and brought with him his treasures, things that the Tang people were interested in, those silk silks, gold and silver jewelry.

When the Tang attacked the palace, the king set himself on fire, and the queen committed suicide by poisoning.

They are right, or they will suffer terrible humiliation!

Wei Xi's statement that "surrender and not kill" is not a good intention, capital crimes can be escaped, living crimes are inevitable, and he demoted all the people in the city (except the Tang people in the city) to slaves!

As a lighthouse country, how can you ignore benevolence, righteousness and morality, how can you do the slaughter of the city, although the people of Shiguo opposed the Tang army, Wei Xi generously pardoned them, but asked them to be compensated as slaves for resisting the Tang army and killing and wounding 3,000 people of the Tang army.

The Tang people did what they said, emptied the city, and drove the listless and depressed Shiguo people to the set/middle/camp outside the city in groups.

The camp was simple, but it was very lively, and the first thing to do was to start screening.

Young girls and beautiful girls go aside, especially those beautiful noble girls, these are valuable goods!

The "goods" cannot be devalued, so their treatment will be the best, with food and drink, sufficient supply, and first-class treatment.

On the side of those who have skills, they can farm, raise horses, do business, make jewelry, doctors, plumbers, carpenters, blacksmiths, etc., stand up and review, and their treatment will be guaranteed after passing, which is the second level of treatment.

There is another category of people, that is, petty officials are also favored, as long as they know how to deal with official documents or something, they will be given preferential treatment.

And the big officials are not so lucky, they are classified into the third gear, because Datang does not need them to be masters.

The third gear is to do manual work, they do the work without going through the brain, carrying large bags, moving bricks, grazing, etc., they will use hard sweat to ensure their survival.

Slaves had no human rights, and the wealth belonged to the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang army broke through the city and organized a search team to search carefully.

The principle is that all seizures should be returned to the public and distributed uniformly: mainly three parts, and forty percent will be owned by the military and put into the public treasury; Thirty percent will be given to the families of the war dead (there is a ration, and the excess will be recorded for the next distribution), and thirty percent will be given to the officers and soldiers who participated in the war.

Those slaves are all Wei Xi's!

It's not very fair, but there are more sacrifices and pensions than before, and the soldiers have also admitted it.

It is really a big profit, Shiguo as an important transit station of the Silk Road, its own people also do business, over the years, the accumulated wealth of millions, all owned by the Tang Army, although the palace was burned and destroyed partly, but gold, silver and copper can not be destroyed.

After careful inventory, the property is worth 15 million yuan of gold, silver, copper, silk fabrics, leather, jewelry and other materials!

Gold, silver and copper alone are worth 8 million guan, and the Lite people like to cellar gold, and their Chinese treasury has a silver worth 1 million guan, and the cellar of the largest merchant in the country also has a million guan of silver.

Seeing the rows of silver ingots glittering, everyone was overjoyed.

Sure enough, the war came quickly.

Because the city was broken early, there were still a large number of livestock and grain, and their value was even higher than that of gold, silver and copper----- so there was no need to transfer grain and grass from the rear!

With the tragic transportation conditions at that time, you must know that there is no one in ten to transport grain for thousands of miles.

Wei Xi didn't look at the gold or silver, he personally went to look at the grain depot, the wheat stored in the warehouse was golden, and after the statistics, it was found that it could accommodate 100,000 troops to eat for more than half a year, but it was really developed, so that Wei Xi's eyes lit up, and his face turned red, he definitely didn't see a small amount of money and his eyes were open, and the grain in front of him was really more valuable than gold!

……

After defeating Shiguo, the main force of the Tang army moved forward and attacked the capital of Kangguo, Samojian, but found that it was difficult to deal with.

Kang is located in the Samarkand region of Uzbekistan, the circumference of the capital is twenty miles, the city is towering, the four gates are built with urn cities, the city wall is huge, and if you want to knock it down, even the most belligerent general looks at the city and is silent.

Everything was in order, building a long fence, building fortifications, forming catapults, and there was a busy scene on the position of the Tang army.

Arrows with letters of surrender were shot into the city in large numbers, specifying: Those who donate the city will be rewarded, and their lives will be saved, and those who resist will be killed!

If you resist, the day the city is broken, the whole city will become slaves!

It's no joke, just under the city, the Kang people saw the ministers and rich men of the Yuan Shi Kingdom they knew driving the Tang army to the Tang army, digging ravines for them, building fortifications, and making cattle and horses!

The whip of the Don Army fell on them, and their previous majesty was swept away!

"Behold, this is your destiny!"

"Surrender early, and your family's property and life will be saved!"

In response to Tang Jun's shouting, Kang Guoren's answer was "Phew!" ”

Needless to say, the trebuchet started, and the huge stones whistled and flew towards the city wall two or three hundred paces away.

Under the heavy impact, the city wall only trembled, but it did not break, and the generals of the Tang Army who watched from the telescope all frowned.

They had already estimated the Kangguo city wall very highly, but they didn't expect it to be so strong.

How much did Kangguo people spend to build a wall!

At the same time, the generals admired the general even more, and he demanded the use of three hundred counterweight trebuchets!

The tall instruments opened fire in unison, and the scene was spectacular enough, and the loud bangs on the city walls were continuous.

After all, the city could not be broken, and the power of the ancient siege equipment was limited (the battleships of the sail period fired cannonballs with black powder, and often hit the whole ship out of shape, but it was not sinkable!). Stone bullets can smash the city wall to a thousand holes, but they can't smash the thick stone and earth walls.

The archers stepped forward and shot at the city, raining down arrows.

Use fire bombs to focus on attacking a city wall, countless fire bombs set the city wall on fire, but found that because the city wall is too big, the Kang people still have enough places to avoid the fire!

Use all the cover you can do, and then it's a brutal siege!

One by one, the ladders were piled up to the wall, the suspension bridge on the ladder went down, and the Tang army on the top of the ladder swarmed to kill.

The Kang people fired arrows to block, and the soldiers engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Tang army who jumped onto the city.

On the other hand, the Kang people poured barrels of oil on the ladder, threw down the torches, and the oil ignited with a "boom", and a raging fire ignited up and down the ladder.

The screams of the Tang sergeants were unbearable to hear, people fell down from the ladder, some did not die on the ground and rolled in pain, some people splashed with water, but it was not easy to splash out, many people saw the fire spreading on the ladder, the smoke increased to heat, and simply jumped from the top of the ladder more than ten meters high, breaking their legs.

Black smoke billowed from the air, and a burnt smell mixed with the 'aroma' of burnt hair and human flesh was terrifying.

During the battle, the number of dead and wounded of the Don Army skyrocketed!
