Chapter 1043. Gather people's hearts, unexpectedly...

cpa300_4(); Rich in Persian characteristics, the earthy yellow city wall of Ctesiphon cracked a few huge traces like a spider web, and the corner tower left by the Min people at the head of the city last time did not escape the fate of destruction, half of each collapsed, and the blue bricks and tiles fell everywhere.

I don't know what the casualties of the Bedouin defenders were, but after three rounds of shelling, the satisfied Zanpo took a proud look at the damage she had caused, and proudly ordered the artillery team to retreat.

A round of artillery bombardment almost changed the morale of the day's battle, looking at the artifact of their army, where the cannon passed, the officers and men of the Fujian army were all full of pride, only our civilized Min, there is such an artifact!

As for the Armenians who had returned, they looked in like a pilgrimage from afar, and they did not dare to get angry when they were blocked back by the Fujian army, and some knelt down and prayed loudly.

Seeing this scene, Li Jie was also a little happy, and he rode on his horse with satisfaction, and returned to the Chinese army from the bottom of the forbidden army.

The sun has turned west, and the dead and silent city wall of Taixifeng blocked the last ray, making it dark outside the eastern city gate, following the king's banner, the Min army is like a dark jungle, retreating in an orderly manner, and the slowly squirming black shadow is even more chilling to the hearts of those who watch.

On this day of fighting, the Armenians lost more than 5,000 casualties, and lost one-eighth, even if the Fujian army rose up in the evening, it could not change the panic of the people, for fear of making any more camp incidents, the Fujian army divided these Armenians into several pieces and scattered around the huge Fujian army.

The Armenians, who had been looked down upon for a long time, finally enjoyed the treatment of people in the evening, and the dinner seemed to be a little more sumptuous than that of the Fujian army, with ham, smoked eggs, and large barrels of wine, which were usually enjoyed by the nobles.

Many Armenians have never seen rice, and they dare not eat it for a long time with Tianzhu rice, and some people desperately stuff ham into their mouths like starving ghosts, and these Armenian farmers have not eaten meat for at least five or six years.

Valalchak and other Armenian princes were also separated, and they were divided into tents alone, full of anxiety, but when they were full of fear and fear of persecution by the Min people, and fidgeted, one by one the gentle Japanese maids who accompanied the army sent up the enjoyment of leading the angel to fall.

The fragrant Guanzhong mutton soup cake, the roasted crispy and delicious roast duck dripping with oil, the hot steamed buns, and the fine wine, the pomegranates that are still fresh and delicate in winter, and the grapes have attracted the drooling of Armenian nobles.

Especially after a sumptuous dinner, the widows also brought hot water, even if the Christian advocates of refusing to bathe, in order to maintain purity, desperately tired for a day, soaked in the hot water, and then by the fair-skinned, beautiful widows soft and boneless little hands to hold the shoulders, sucking the tobacco sent by the Fujian people, the taste, it is simply in heaven.

There are many volcanic hot springs in the Wa country, after Li You became the general of the expedition, he came to the Wa country for vacation every year, and the Tang people who saw the exotic scenery were increasing day by day, many of the Japanese daimyo and nobles even made a fortune by opening a hot spring hotel, and the means of serving the Japanese women trained in this case were also perfect, and after a while, these mountain buns had been fascinated and could not find the north.

Sometimes, the aftermath is really important, especially when the Min Red Gourd Team organized Min Zhuang to transport the wounded and corpses back from the battlefield, and hundreds of priests were organized to come over to mass and pray for a collective scene, which reduced the resentment in the hearts of these Armenian cannon fodder by more than half, and after calming down the army's heart, the Min army even released the Armenian nobles back.

Some Armenian nobles absolutely committed the original sin, and when they came out, their thick legs trembled, and some people were reluctant to leave, but when they returned to the barracks, the last killer of the Fujian people was to beat these Armenian nobles dizzy.

"This, for me?"

The two chests were opened, even in the middle of the night, the gold and precious stones in the boxes still shone in the firelight, and the delicate silk exuded a mesmerizing brilliance, even if it was an old and serious one, it could be regarded as an old fox among the Armenians, looking at this, Valralchak's voice trembled a little.

Don't think of the medieval aristocracy as extravagant and rich, some lords can't even eat white bread every day, these riches in front of them, even if Valralchak is three feet high in the fiefdom for a hundred years, it is no wonder that Valralchak can't help but feel like a dream.

The chubby face smiled a flower, and Sbratita smiled a little disgustingly flattering and looked at the orchid finger, and said with a smile: "Of course! ”

"Today's heroic performance of Lord Valralchak on the battlefield King Min can be seen in his eyes and remembered, these are just the beginning, King Min also plans to choose a fertile grange near Kufa to give to the lord in recognition of the lord's loyalty to Great Min!"

As he said this, Sporatita deliberately amplified his voice a little, and picked up a silk horse to shine on the fire, which caused the nearby Armenian peasants to come over with red eyes, and in their eyes, several boxes of wealth were fastened with lids and stuffed in front of Valralchak, which immediately made the prince's triangular head laugh like a sunflower.

"That's as it should be! King Min is a god-king sent by God to rule over the world, and it is our honor to serve the King of Min. ”

"Hehe, the lord can think so, the king of Min will be very happy if he knows, okay, the lord is busy himself, and the miscellaneous family will give a reward to the next lord, so I won't bother."

Squirming, Sporatita threw the dust, and walked out of Valralchak's camp in a demonic manner, almost impatiently shouting to his father-in-law to go slowly. Before Sporatida could go far, Valralchak had already called out to his kinsmen and carried the wealth into his tent, fearing that he would lose it after a little more delay.

The excited Valalchak didn't notice that the Armenian militiamen, who had always been obedient to him like sheep in captivity, looked at the auspicious treasures with jealousy like rabbits.

The restless night was fleeting, and when the Golden Crow once again sent his brilliant brilliance to the borders of the earth, the mighty Min army once again appeared like a forest under the city of Taixifeng.

Last night's blackened city wall is still standing there, and on the ground, there are faint traces of people burning to death, but today's morale of the Armenians is raised again, not only because there was a priest's mass last night, but also food rewards, which is completely different from yesterday, more than 50 seven or eight hundred pound general cannons crouched heavily on the ground against the city wall, giving these Armenians who have seen the "wrath of God" infinite confidence, at the same time, mixed with the siege team, a team of elite Fujian troops are also full of morale.

Although he felt sorry for his subordinates, at last night's military meeting, Li Jie was moved by the nagging words of Hei Zhi Changyi.

If the army is shrunk back at this time because of the fear of casualties, in the future on the battlefield, the Min army will never be able to adapt to the attack of the Arabs with Greek fire, rather than suffering serious losses or routs at that time, it is better to take advantage of the current disparity between the enemy and us to train the psychological endurance of these sergeants!

As a general, you have to be cold-blooded when you should be cold-blooded, so early this morning, the first, Li Jie sent Zuo Wuwei of the First Army of the Sixteenth Guard of Damin to the forefront.

Only by making meritorious contributions on the battlefield can there be greater development, change fate, become nobles, and glorify the ancestors, and the glory of Zuo Wuwei is to make the blood of the attacking sergeants boiling, and the army fighting for glory is always stronger than the ordinary army that fights passively.

Lao Tzu's team!

The heavy cannon has been fixed, the loading has been completed, one by one the gunners are carrying red-hot iron bars ready to go, according to the custom, Li Jie waved the command flag in his hand again, the Arab Ministry of Rites waiter, after the last Jerusalem incident, the whole family was slaughtered by the Shiites of the Auxiliary, and Abdullah, who defected to Damin, rode a camel to the city gate to persuade him to surrender with a blank face.

"The king of Min has an order, surrender the city, Da Min guarantees your safety, resist stubbornly, and slaughter the city for three days on the day the city is broken!"

It was really routine, Abdullah didn't even want to say more about the scene, he finished yelling dryly, turned around and walked back. After completing the gimmick of the state of etiquette, seeing that the city gate had not moved, Li Jie tilted his head to Zanpo beside him again, and asked him to direct the artillery to bombard the city wall.

But before Zanpo stepped on the horse, the closed gate of Ctesiphon suddenly opened open, almost crying and mourning, little Ziyad took the lead, and dozens of Bedouin tribesmen in the city with heads and faces crawled out of the doorway, followed behind little Qiyad, knelt in front of the Fujian army, and wailed at Li Jie's banner holding the key to the city gate that symbolized the power of Ctesiphon.

"Merciful Shahansha, we follow your will to go out of the city and surrender, please also keep your promise, do not kill indiscriminately!"

Yesterday he resisted so resolutely, but today he made a 180-degree turn, Li Jie really rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and was stunned for a moment before reacting.

The history of the last Battle of Basra, repeated!

Abdullah also turned around a little stunned, got off his camel and took the key, and a moment later, the huge vanguard army of more than 20,000 Armenians and left guards cheered in unison, and the cheers were like thunder, and the city was buzzing.

Listening to the cheers, Li Jie rubbed his face with some pain, before the battle, in order to boost morale, he promised a large reward, and now, it was all in vain. The Tang Expeditionary Force
