A dense rain of arrows flew into the sky, then plummeted down. The battle is over before it has even begun.

More than 1,000 yuan crossbows, tens of thousands of pure steel giant arrows. Torrential torrents of steel easily pierced human flesh and nails Arabians or Yemenis to the ground. With just one salvo, most of the crowd gathered in the manor had already collapsed.

The smell of blood became extremely thick in an instant, and the sparse crowd was surrounded by dense corpses, before these people stood too close, everyone was crowded together, and when they fell, the corpses squeezed each other layer upon layer, and the ground was quickly stained red by blood.

The miserable cries of the dying people, and the more people quickly lost their voices, their eyes were full of corpses of their clansmen, and the cries of pain were in their ears, and the more than 1,000 surviving people stood in the manor, already stunned.

What a means is this, it is so terrible! All they felt was a sudden darkness above their heads, and then the surroundings became like this. The familiar faces had fallen, in pools of blood, pierced with sharp arrows.

At this moment, the surviving people were stunned, like statues. They didn't understand what was going on, they had no idea what it was.

However, it was not long before someone screamed in horror. Then more people shouted, some tried to pick up their fallen companions, and some staggered on the slippery corpses on the ground to escape, but fell between the corpses in embarrassment.

Niu Xu smiled coldly, this is what he wants. Just this salvo has completely broken the psychology of these Arabians and Yemenis. Even a well-trained army could not afford such horrific casualties. What's more, these people are nothing more than a rabble.

And the attack did not continue. The athletes stood in a line on the square. A quick turn of the steel winch rewound the Yuanrong crossbow. This time I didn't come to fight, but to slaughter, it has reached this point, naturally there is no need for hand-to-hand combat, and there is no need to waste precious fire thunder, fire thunder has to be transported from the river, the number of belts this time is limited, naturally there is no need to use it at this time. The steel arrows of the Yuanrong crossbow can be recovered. It's the best choice.

The time for the Yuanrong crossbow to be rewound was not short, and by the time the athletes refilled the groove with ten steel arrows, no one rushed out of the gate. Hundreds of the survivors fled by stepping on the corpses of their fellow tribesmen and ran to the date palms on both sides of the manor, presumably trying to climb out of the wall, while hundreds of others stood there and screamed in horror, some of them were frightened and stupid, and some of them knelt on the ground and cried loudly with the corpses in their arms, apparently their loved ones had died.

"Let's go inside." Niu Xu looked at Aziz and said.

Aziz's expression was also extremely wonderful at this time, and he nodded indifferently. The mechanical stride inside. His family is not inferior in power to the Pahlavis, but its cohesion is slightly inferior. If we were to resist today, we would be able to gather at most three or four thousand people. The Pahlavi family gathered so many people, in his opinion, it was a very strong force, but such a strong force, the young and strong Alabians and Yemenis in the whole city of Basra, were easily defeated by the Ansi army.

Just a salvo!

This terrifying attack shocked him extremely much, and when the overwhelming rain of arrows fell, his scalp was also numb. At this time, he couldn't help but think about what kind of result would have been if his family hadn't chosen to surrender.

The Pahlavi family is finished!

If it was his family that stood in front of the Anxi army, it would be the same fate. At the beginning, he heard from the fighters of the Syrian Legion that the Tang Army's arrow array was powerful, and at this time he also saw it with his own eyes.

At this time, Aziz felt even more fortunate.

Although he had great confidence in the Anxi army, he did not expect that the battle would end in this way. In fact, it was not a battle at all, it was a one-sided massacre.

Fortunately, he reacted extremely quickly in the port today and chose to surrender as soon as possible, otherwise the fate of the family would be the same as that of the Pahlavi family.

A thousand Anxi athletes followed Niu Xu into the manor of the Pahlavi family, and the Yuan Rong crossbow was adjusted to the single-shot shooting mode, shooting the scattered people among the corpses on the ground one by one at close range. On the walls on both sides, hundreds of fleeing people were climbing over the wall at this moment, and Niu Xu ignored them. If they escape, they will flee, these people have already broken their courage and can't make any big waves. Since this man named Aziz is the tax collector of Basra City, how can he do nothing, that would be too cheap for him.

The weather was sunny and sunny.

The clearing was covered with corpses, and blood was pouring from the ground. There was no longer a standing enemy, and the two hundred Anxi Jian'er put the Yuan Rong crossbow back on his back, drew out a horizontal knife and checked it on the ground, and when he saw an enemy who still had a breath, he made up for it. The other three hundred athletes are specifically responsible for pulling out steel arrows from corpses, which is the most important resource, and naturally cannot be wasted.

After these things were done, the army gathered around the luxurious mansion at the rear of the manor. It didn't take long for the luxurious mansions to burst into flames, and screams rang out one after another.

Niu Xu stood on the fire and watched silently, his expression extremely calm.

Doing such a thing, if Eighth Uncle and Uncle Lei knew, they would definitely frown. However, he is now a general of the Tang Dynasty, and he is surrounded by enemies in an enemy country, so he must be so ruthless.

Soon the screams ceased, the flames intensified, and billowing smoke rose into the sky. Niu Xu knew that this was the old and weak of the Pahlavi family, and a team of athletes quickly walked out of the fire, and more buildings were burning.

The fire was blazing, reflecting on the young face of Niu Xu. After watching outside the fire for a long time, Niu Xu turned his head to look at Aziz and said, "Tax officer, it's up to you below." The Arabians and Yemenis in the city, I want you to kill them all. ”

"Kill them all?" Aziz whispered, "That's a lot of people. General, it's enough to kill those young and strong, those old and weak can still be used as resources, although the strength is a little smaller, and those women ......"

"Don't you want to? Or can't you do it? ”

Seeing Niu Xu's expression turn cold, Aziz was startled, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry about me, general, I will kill them all." ”

Niu Xu snorted and stopped talking.

"General, my manor is on the edge, I'm going to gather my men now and kill those Arabians and Yemenis."

Niu Xu waved his hand, and Aziz glanced at the burning fire again, turned his head and walked out quickly.

By the time the fire was completely extinguished and Niu Xu and the athletes came out of the estate, Aziz had already arrived with more than 3,000 armed Persians.

"That's all there is to it?"

"General, there are more than a thousand people on board, and those are good hands. Now they are all still on the ship, and they dare not come down without the order of the general. Aziz explained.

"Then go and get them off the boat! - What is the Hussein family, where is the lair? ”

Aziz pointed to a large manor on the right, Niu Xu nodded, and led the athletes to surround it.

Destroying such a large fleet, this family can no longer be used for its own purposes, so just pull it out. In the future, Basra City will probably be dominated by the Aziz family, but this is nothing, as long as he is obedient to Datang. The main purpose of this time is actually to purge the remnants of the Hawarijites.

The Condor Archer was killed while hunting, but it was a pity that he had sworn to take her life himself. He had almost died at the hands of the Condor Archer, so the elimination of the Havaliji was both a business and a personal vendetta for him.

Under the absolute power, there is no suspense in everything, the Hussein family has lost more than a thousand capable sailors in the port, and at this moment the family has gathered only more than a thousand people. Seeing that the Pahlavi family next door was directly burned to the ground by the fire, the patriarch of the Hussein family was completely frightened, ready to knock out his teeth and swallow blood, and when he saw the Anxi army coming, he immediately opened the door to welcome Niu Xu and surrendered.

However, Niu Xu did not give him face, nor did he give them a chance to surrender, but just asked the old Hussein to separate his own people from the soldiers gathered, and then there was a rain of arrows, shooting the old Hussein's own more than 300 people directly to death, and then simply reorganized the terrified Persian warriors, and ordered them to find Aziz, join Aziz's team, and clear the city of Arabians and Yemenis.

The Aziz family and the Hussein family, the two largest Persians in Basra, were not loyal to the Hussein family, so they accepted Niu Xu's order, and left the manor under the leadership of the temporary leader appointed by Niu Xu, and went to the docks to find Aziz's men.

Then the Hussein family set fire and all the buildings of the huge estate were burned, leaving only the courtyard walls on all sides and the sparse date palm trees within the courtyard walls.

The brief landing was over, and the city of Basra was in chaos. The Aziz family, with thousands of young Persians, began a purge of Arabians and Yemenis. In order to make a contribution in front of the new master, Aziz did not discount the execution of Niu Xu's orders at all, and the most beautiful Arabic women did not let go, and they all became the ghosts of the Persians.

Chaos spread throughout the city, with black smoke rising from all over the city, and the clamor and shouts of killing rang out. By this time, Niu Xu had already led the army through the crooked and dirty streets, returned to the port, and set up camp at the wharf.

Things were simple and smooth, after this day, this famous port city would become the territory of the Tang Empire, and after the order of the city was re-established, it was time to go to trouble those Hawariji cultists.

After the athletes go ashore, what they need most is the war horse, and without the war horse, they can't carry the Mo knife, which will greatly affect the combat power of the athletes. When the order of the city is established, and the tax collector can recruit enough horses, it is time to take the next step. (To be continued......)
