"Don't worry, there is a tall general sitting in Anxi, and there is a green mountain and natural danger, what Qu Dibo didn't do back then, and. Posilin was just wishful thinking, not to mention that he was still injured. ”

Seeing that many officers were nervous, Ma Lan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Anxi must be safe and sound, don't worry." On the contrary, a large number of Persians are now gathered on both sides of the medicine. Although our Anxi army is elite, there are too many enemies, and they really can't afford to lose money. Going back the way you came, it's definitely not going to work. ”

"General, how do you know about these things?" Du Huan, who joined the army temporarily, looked puzzled.

"I have my own way. Have you forgotten the Sogdians who helped us yesterday? Ma Lan smiled mysteriously.

Don't say too much, as the commander of the first army, it is still necessary to maintain a little mystery. Of course, this information did not come from the Sogdians, but from his original memories.

Seeing that Ma Lan was so determined, everyone looked at each other and relieved. Ma Luan was originally of a higher rank than them, and last night he completed the feat of saving everyone with only sixty people, and everyone already had absolute trust in him.

"Don't go back the way you came, General, how are we going back to Anxi?" An officer asked, standing up.

Ma Ling said: "We are in an enemy country, we can't fight hard, we can only avoid the real and make up for nothing." What I mean is that we will not go to the medicine to kill the water, but to the south, from the Torifei Governor's Mansion into Anxi. ”

"Whatever the general says, we will do. Anyway, when I got to this place, I couldn't make out the direction. ”

"As long as you can return to Anxi safely, you can take that road."

Ma Lan found that he overestimated these killing talents, too, these guys are good men who draw intestines and splash blood on the battlefield, but they basically have no knowledge, and when they get to the battlefield, they only know that they obey the orders of the commander, and it is in vain to discuss with these guys.

"Then it's decided, from the southern foot of the Green Mountain through the Bird Flying Governor's Mansion into Anxi! But before we do that, we still have to go fishing and drinking. I know that more than 2,000 brothers have been sold there, and they are all dragged with their families, and they must not be left alone. ”

"It's good for the general to call the shots. Go to your own brother, that is what you should do. Where is the catch? ”

"I saved my brother and returned to Anxi together. If you don't go, it's the little lady's raiser! ”

Now the plan has been decided, and everyone disperses to prepare. Ma Lan threw all these things to Du Huan, he only had the strength of his arms and the memory of his previous life, and he was not good at dealing with the expedition of a large army, and a scholar like Du Huan was extremely suitable for such a thing.

At this time, Du Huan was bent on establishing a career comparable to Ban Chao Chen Tang, and he didn't feel tired at all.

Catching and drinking is the Bukhara of later generations, and it is also a famous city on the banks of the Zeravshan River, and it is the capital of Zhaowu Jiu surnamed Anguo in this era. Fishing is located in the west of Sa Mo Jian, seven or eight hundred miles away from Sa Mo Jian, which is closer to Mulu, the capital of Khorasan, than Sa Mo Jian, and was controlled by the big cannibals earlier.

More than 2,000 Tang army prisoners of war arrived to capture and drink, which was what Kang Million told Ma Xuan before. According to Ma Lan's estimate, one of them must have arrived in Mulu.

In the original history, the Tang prisoners of war in the Battle of Talas were exiled to the entire Great Food, Damascus, Baghdad - of course, the city of Baghdad has not yet been established, and the capital of Baghdad was after Mansur became caliph, and now Mansur is still looking forward to the early death of his brother Abbas - and even Spain, which still belongs to the white-clothed food, has appeared as prisoners of war of the Tang Army.

After occupying the sassy building, he went to hunt and drink, which was Ma Lan's plan before. The Tang Army prisoners of war who were exiled elsewhere could not be rescued one by one, but the capture was a big city in the river, and there must have been many Anxi Army prisoners there. As for Mulu, which is further away, it is not within the scope of consideration of the Anxi army.

There is and. Posilin's lair, the birthplace of the Abbasids, ruled the Persian homeland for more than 100 years, and although the gas was exhausted, the Persians basically became Hu Da's followers. Ma Lu is not arrogant enough to attack Mulu with his own little men.

When he came to the outside of the camp, he happened to see more than a dozen tribal knights rushing into the camp with a whip, but they were stopped by the Anxi soldiers. The knight at the head jumped off the war horse and said stiffly to Ma Lu: "General, ...... quickly Hurry up ......"

This is a rough Central Plains official dialect, but it is obviously just a rough language. Han Wu picked up the horsewhip and whipped this guy a few times, and this guy spoke more fluently.

This Uighur knight was rescued by Han Wu and others, and he was naturally not annoyed by the whip, and Ma Lu resisted the urge to kick his feet and barely listened to him, only to know what had happened.

It turned out that these guys went out of the city to capture those forts, and at first they went well, but then they ran into hard stubble. The Sogdians in those forts did not surrender, but closed the gates and resisted. This was the case for several forts in a row, and the tribal soldiers lost a lot of men before they were defeated. Now this larger fortress has not been defeated for half an hour, but it has lost more than 100 people.

Ma Lan asked a few more words, and couldn't help but scold "stupid". At the beginning, the Sogdians in the first few fortresses opened the door and surrendered, but they were killed cleanly, and the Sogdians in other fortresses got the news that they were willing to surrender, so they naturally had to resist to the end.

These simple-minded guys really can't do anything. However, since he has already asked for himself, as the commander of the first army, he naturally can't sit idly by.

Ma Ling took the elite of the 2,000 Han army out of the Sassa Jian, and galloped for more than ten miles to the position where the smoke and dust rose. After the tribal army went out of the city, they captured a lot, horses and camels were everywhere, and all kinds of goods were loaded into dozens of carts. The original army of more than 2,000 tribes is now less than 2,000, and it is surrounding a Sogdian fortress and shouting loudly. The Sogdians in the fortress did not show their heads, but fired a few cold arrows from time to time.

In temporary command of these tribal troops was a Uighur named Khibiye, who claimed to be a descendant of the famous general Khibi Holi. Seeing Ma Luan coming, Qi Biye took off his helmet and rode up to meet him, with a look of shame on his face: "General, the last general is incompetent, please punish the general!" ”

This guy spoke plainly and fluently, Ma Ling ignored him, and squinted at the castle in front of him.

It is no wonder that most of the Sogdian fortresses are made of rammed loess, but the bottom of this fortress is more than a man high and is made of boulders, and the top is loess. The fortress is cohesive, with a smooth exterior and arrow holes in the walls. The gates of the fortress were blocked, and not a single figure could be seen from the outside.

This fortress covers a huge area, with a radius of dozens of zhang, and I don't know how many people there are inside.

"General, what should I do? These guys hide in turtle shells and refuse to come out, so there must be a lot of oil and water......"

Ma Lan glanced at Qi Biye angrily, more oil and less oil and water fell second, you will kill all the people when you build a fortress, how can people not defend desperately?

But at this time, it is naturally not the time to blame his subordinates, let these tiger and wolf generations do this, such a result should have been expected a long time ago. Ma Lan waved his hand, and the Han sergeant galloped out dozens of horses and galloped towards the fortress.

At the sound of the order, the tribal soldiers moved out of the way. There were crossbow arrows in the arrow holes, but the soldiers were wearing double armor and were not damaged.

At the foot of the fort, the soldiers pushed down pieces of cotton felt from their horses, lit them, and left. For a moment, thick smoke billowed from under the fortress, and choking smoke drifted into the fortress along the arrow holes.

The Sogdian cries were heard from inside the fortress, and Chemino understood it at this time, and immediately came to his senses, and commanded the soldiers to cover a large amount of fresh horse manure on top of the cotton felt, releasing an even more unpleasant smoke.

The smoke grew louder and louder, and suddenly a Sogdian jumped out of an arrow hole, coughing violently. Several long arrows were fired from the tribal army, which directly pinned the Sogdian warriors to the ground.

More Sogdians jumped from the arrowholes, and none of the tribal troops who had suffered before refused to let go, and the Sogdians who jumped down were shot into a sieve.

The fortress was filled with the sound of cries and the mournful sounds of livestock. But it didn't take long for all the sounds to disappear.

When the smoke had completely cleared, Ma ordered a group of soldiers to open the gate, but there was no resistance, and the Sogdians had blocked it, and it took a lot of effort to open it.

After breaking through the gate with force and removing a large number of obstacles behind the door, a large number of Han soldiers swarmed in and began to search for the belongings inside. The tribal warriors looked hot, but they all froze.

This fortress was not captured by them, and they naturally did not have the right to acquire wealth. This is the rule that prevails throughout the Western Regions, and everyone understands it.

Qi Bino looked at Ma Lan with a calm expression, and felt annoyed in his heart. Why can't you think of such a simple solution?

One by one, the corpses of the Sogdians were carried out and laid out under the fortress. There were more than 500 Sogdians in this fortress, and all of them were killed by the smoke, and none of them survived.

In addition to people, hundreds of horses and dozens of camels at the bottom of the fortress also died in the smoke. Ma Lan secretly said in his heart that it was a pity, but this was also a helpless thing.

The wealth in the fortress was indeed staggering, and the gold and silver coins filled ten carts, and it can be seen that the owner of this fortress was extremely wealthy.

Ma Lan entered the fortress and saw an emblem on the wall, understanding that this fortress belonged to the Kangguo royal family. The Hanaka region has been occupied by the Great Cannibals for some years, and the royal family surnamed Zhaowu Jiu has not been completely deposed, and there is still a privileged existence here. The owner of this fortress belongs to the royal family like Kang Fatzi, no wonder he has a big family and so much wealth.

Of course, Ma Lan can be sure that this is not a fortress of Kang Fatzi. Because when he was bought by Kang Lin'er, he was taken care of in the Kang family's fortress. He fell into a coma on the battlefield of Talas, and the first place he saw when he woke up was Kang Fatzi's fortress, and the first person he saw was Kang Lin'er.

Kang Fatzi is a child of the Kang royal family, but he doesn't have much affection for the Kang royal family, which Ma Lu has known for a long time. So he burned the fortress of this royal family, but there was no burden in his heart.

"General, there's a secret room here!" Du Huan's excited voice came from the bottom of the fortress.
