Building a city in an environment like a desert is indeed not an easy task. And the city owned by the Kopoyali people is actually not very good strictly speaking.

To put it bluntly, it is just a city that can only accommodate thousands of people, and its area is not very large. On the eastern side, even a small county town cannot be compared.

However, here in the Cuman Desert, it would be very nice to have a city.

Especially in this city, there is also a green coconut grove and freshwater puddles, which makes the value of this city rise sharply.

You know, in a desert environment, water is much more valuable than gold.

And this place was also forcibly snatched from a certain tribe by the ancestors of the Kopoyali people. And then on this basis, they slowly built the city.

Most of the people living in the city are high-ranking people of the Kopyali people, and ordinary ordinary people are not qualified to live in it.

In other words, the people in this city are all Kopoyali people who are either rich or noble.

If he can capture the entire city, then Zhang Xiao can wipe out the high-level of Kopoyali, so that the remaining ordinary people can be easily solved.

Even if there are a large number of ordinary people scattered abroad, because there is no 'leader' and command, these people are just a plate of scattered sand, and it is very easy to solve them.

It was also a common problem in the 16th century, when ordinary people were accustomed to following orders, and if the top of the command was killed, the remaining people at the bottom would not be able to act further.

This is true in the East and in the West, as well as in the Arab region.

Perhaps it is because the people of this era have not yet been as civilized as modern people, so they seem to be very 'simple'. If they don't have instructions, they can't do anything about what to do next.

This is for Zhang Xiao. It's a funny thing, but it's also a big good thing.

The benefits are huge.

Therefore, after entering the hinterland, Zhang Xiao decided to take the city of the Kopoyali people in one fell swoop and wipe out the high-level people in it.

As long as those high-level leaders are controlled, then the entire Kopoya Department will be completely included in the palm of their hands.

Although these high-level people will have some careful thoughts and small actions, Zhang Xiao is very unimpressed.

As long as these people can fall into his hands, he has the ability and means to control them and prevent them from doing things that threaten him.

Until that time. Even if the Bukut army arrived, they would be helpless in the face of such a situation.

Anyway, it's already happening, so what can they do?

Is it possible to go to war with the Imperial Army?

Hey!

If it was before, maybe Zhang Xiao would not have been afraid of it.

But after the Bukut army, which had suffered a great loss in strength in the battle with the Kopoyali not long ago, it was no longer taken seriously by Zhang Xiao.

If it weren't for the purpose of keeping the Bukuts and letting them fight against the Tatanirs, Zhang Xiao would have cleaned up the Bukuts and Kopoyali together at that time.

You know, after that war. The Bukuts, who originally had an army of more than 100,000 people, now only had more than 10,000 left, and the Kopyali people were also the same number.

Even if they are combined, they are only more than 30,000 soldiers and horses.

In the face of this number of troops, Zhang Xiao still has the confidence to defeat.

After all. The Imperial Army is all about fighting more and less, isn't it?

Of course, considering that the Tatanirs have suffered a lot of losses in the early stage, they have not yet broken their bones. And judging by the current situation, the Tatanirs were originally the weakest in military strength. Now he has become the strongest.

So, it's better to keep the Bukuts, so that they can deal with the Tatanirs in the future.

To know. Once the Tatanirs understand the current situation, and understand the current situation of the Bukuts, then they will definitely be ready to move.

The greedy Tatanirs will not miss a single opportunity.

After all, the war of hegemony in the Cumans, among which there was also a share of the Tatanirs.

Then, in fact, there is no need for Zhang Xiao to deal with the Bukuts, and their future life will not be easy for a while. Because they have to defend themselves against the Tatanirs, they must be on guard.

Therefore, Zhang Xiao can confidently judge that the Qiē he has done includes occupying the city of the Kopyali people in the future, and after absorbing the Kopyali tribe and its vassal tribes, the Bukuts who rushed here to receive the Qiē did not dare to do anything.

Because they will not go to war with themselves in this form, and spend the little military strength they have left on themselves.

After all, they have one of their biggest enemies to deal with, don't they?

What's more, now when the Imperial Army is attacking the Kopoarian army, it has also shown strong combat effectiveness, attack power, and defensive power.

In this regard, the Bukuts also saw it in their eyes, and it was very clear.

Zhang Xiao didn't believe it, didn't they feel jealous and scared about this?

Hum!

Until there is no way to deal with the threat of muskets and grenades from the Imperial Army, the Bukuts are not going to fight against themselves.

Actually, I don't dare!

Especially in this situation where their power has been greatly damaged, the Bukuts are even more afraid to go to war with themselves.

Not to mention whether they can defeat themselves or not, first of all, the Bukuts do not have confidence in this regard. And although the remnants of the Kopoyali army had surrendered, the Bukuts did not dare to trust them too much.

Therefore, Zhang Xiao can confidently judge that after occupying most of the territory of the Kopoyali people, it will not be a fait accompli.

Because the Bukuts needed time to lick their wounds, they needed time to regain their military strength. And also to deal with the threat of the Tatanirs, as well as slowly digest some of the Koparian territory that he deliberately left behind.

So, they don't have the energy to deal with themselves.

Yes, Zhang Xiao will not occupy all the territory of the Kopyali people, he will set aside a third for the Bukuts to occupy.

While this may seem like a loss, it is not.

First of all, there are not many troops under Zhang Xiao's command, and the trusted team is the 4,000 Imperial Army and the more than 600 Bedouin soldiers in Fariyah.

In addition to this, more than a thousand slave warriors could not be trusted. The rest of the enveloped procession, which had grown to more than 30,000 people, was even more implausible.

Therefore, his intention to occupy two-thirds of the territory of the Kopyali is already the limit.

What's more, it would be unrealistic to give no benefit to the Bukuts at all.

And feeding the Bukuts a few bites for them to eat can also allow them to focus their energy elsewhere. At the same time, doing so will bring a period of steady development time on your side.

It only takes a little time, and Zhang Xiao is confident that he can completely control the territory and people's hearts. Then he won't have to be afraid of anything.

The most important thing is that once he has such a piece of land, he can immediately contact the Cairo concession and ask them to get the supplies here.

With supplies and equipment, hehe!

The Bukuts and the Tatanirs, sooner or later, are going to eat.

Otherwise, there is not even a single territory, and how can Cairo give itself material aid.

After all, I haven't been given permissions. You can't buy supplies anytime and anywhere to fight.

Therefore, he must have a territory, a fixed base to base on. Then contact the Cairo side and ask Ma Bond to provide supplies and equipment. In this way, he will be able to gain more advantages to gain the hegemony of the Cumans.

Otherwise, with only 4,000 imperial troops, although he was able to remain undefeated in the early stage. But as long as the ammunition runs out, then the future of him and the 4,000 Imperial Army under his command. But it's very dangerous.

Once there is no advantage in weapons, and if you fall into that situation, the Imperial Army will become very weak.

There's no way around it.

Thermal weapons. The demand for ammunition is very high.

But once the supply of materials and equipment can be guaranteed, then the Imperial Army will basically be invincible in this era.

Therefore, the current Zhang Xiao is bound to win the city of the Kopoyali people.

Not to mention, there are precious fresh water resources in this city.

Only a fool wouldn't care about such a place.

"Speed up your march and reach your destination in an hour!" , Zhang Xiao ordered the speed of the team to increase.

Because the Kopyali and Bukuts were at war, the interior of their territory was very empty, and basically the Kopyali took out all the troops they could take out.

This gave Zhang Xiao a good opportunity.

Therefore, along the way, Zhang Xiao basically did not encounter the obstruction of the formation or the scale of the team, and arrived at the city built by the Kopoyali people very smoothly.

Monad Yache! It is the name of the city of the Kopari, which means that it is a shining so-and-so in the desert, pearls, water sources, in short, universal.

Anyway, it's precious, precious.

This city, in the hearts of the Kopoari, is no less than a gift from Allah.

However, when Zhang Xiao arrived in front of this city, he just felt funny when he looked at it.

In front of him, the city of Monad Achhe stood desolately, that is, the two-meter-high loess wall, no matter how you look at it, it is impossible to compare with the city in the east.

A few soldiers were running around the city, and the wooden gates of the city were tightly closed.

It can be seen that the arrival of Zhang Xiao and them has made the people in this city very nervous and vigilant.

Moreover, since the Kopoyali took away all the troops, it can be said that this city does not have enough troops to resist Zhang Xiao and them.

"Attack, I don't want to waste any more time."

Without thinking too much, Zhang Xiao immediately gave the order to attack.

Then, the order reached the 30,000 troops that were enveloped in, and then these 'cannon fodder' began to attack...... (To be continued......)
