At the beginning of June, Gao Xianzhi led more than 10,000 cavalry of the Anxi Army from Shule Town, crossed the Geluo Ridge in the southern vein of the Tianshan Mountains, and led the army towards Shiguo. They first reached the capital of the kingdom of Bakhana, the city of Huxunzhou. Now it has been renamed Ningyuanguo, and even the king has been given the surname Dou by the emperor.

Ning Yuanguo is a die-hard fan of Datang, or the kind of unreasonable die-hard fan. They participated in every war in the northwest direction of the Anxi Protectorate, whether it was just or unjust, if it was a just war, they were allies, if it was unjust, then they were accomplices.

This time Gao Xianzhi's attack on Shi Guo had something to do with this Ningyuan country, and there was a great contradiction between these two neighboring countries, and King Ningyuan often reported some of King Shi's words and deeds accusing the Tang Dynasty to Gao Xianzhi, pointing out that the king of Shi and the Tuqi Shi were ready to form an alliance, and even prepared to merge into a single force, in an attempt to threaten the rule of the Anxi Protectorate, and the fact that the Tuqi Shi gave the city of Talas to the Shi State is the best proof. It is not clear whether these are false accusations against Gao Xianzhi, maybe he doesn't want to tell at all.

Perhaps Gao Xianzhi and Mussolini had the same idea, he did not need the king of Shiguo to surrender, because he had already decided to solve him by means of war.

In order to paralyze Na Juche Nose Shi, he ordered someone to write a letter and quickly teleported it to the Shiguo Imperial Palace, saying that he agreed to the other party's request for surrender. Secretly, he quickly moved forward, and it only took six days to drive to the vicinity of the capital of Shi Guoguo, and took advantage of the cover of night to break through the defenseless Shi Guo in one fell swoop.

This time, Li Siye was purely an observer, and he did not say a word about everything that happened before and after the siege, and then wrote them down on paper one by one to see how the situation developed.

……

At dawn, the Anxi army was still in high spirits, and some soldiers looted in the city.

Two Don soldiers led a dromedary out of the stable, and Sogdian merchants in pointed felt hats hurried up to pull the reins.

"My camel! Please, don't lead my camel! ”

"This camel is a military asset, and it was requisitioned by our Anxi army!"

The Sogdian merchant dragged the reins and knelt on the ground, begging with a handful of snot and tears: "Please, military master, don't lead my camel, this is all my belongings!" ”

"Fuck you!" The soldier kicked the merchant in the chest, causing him to flip several times in succession, and kowtow to the ground repeatedly.

"Don't rob my camel, please!" The Sogdian merchant's head slammed on the ground a few times, and he looked up and watched the two ** leading the camel away, a trace of fierceness flashed in his tearful eyes, he pulled out a short knife from the belt around his waist, and rushed towards the invader with both hands in his hands.

"Ahh

Hearing the sound of hurried footsteps, the soldier instinctively drew his horizontal knife from his waist, turned around and slashed down with one hand.

Let's go.

The short knife in the Sogdian merchant's hand fell to the ground, and thin lines of blood broke from his neck to his chest, and then blood spilled like a bank, and the whole person fell backwards.

"Look for death."

The soldier put the horizontal knife into the sheath, happily reached out and stroked the hump and said: "This dromedary camel is very valuable, it can be sold for 20,000 yuan a horse on the black market in Qiuzi, and you and my brother will divide it equally." ”

The two of them stood at the entrance of the street and were suddenly stunned, the smile of reaping the spoils of war was fixed on their faces, and the festival made Gao Xianzhi cross the white horse to meet him, behind him were Li Siye and the prison army Bian Lingcheng, and then behind were the tooth soldiers carrying the six-sided big sword.

Bian Lingcheng stared at the two people, and said with a question: "This is a robbery of people's property?" ”

The corners of the two of them drooped from the corners of their eyes, and their knees were about to kneel and beg for mercy as soon as their knees became weak.

Who knew that as soon as Gao Gao Cheng opened his mouth, he defined this vicious incident: "This should be regarded as a war to feed the war." ”

As if they had been pardoned, they scratched their foreheads on the top of their heads and sneered: "That's right, war feeds war, war feeds war!" After that, one of them led the camel around to Gao Xianzhi, knelt down on one knee and crossed his hands and said: "Qi Zhongcheng, this is a camel that we captured the military funds of the enemy country, and we specially dedicated it to Zhongcheng!" ”

Gao Xianzhi's smile gritted his teeth: "I have a heart, since it was captured by the two of you, then you can keep it." ”

The two excitedly raised their crossed hands above their heads, shouting like a cow roaring thunder: "Thank you for your grace!" ”

He turned his head, as if he was looking at Li Siye behind him, but it didn't seem to be, and said to himself: "The brothers of the Anxi Army followed me on a long expedition to the capital of Shiguo, and they suffered so much along the way, I can't give them anything else, there should always be a little captured booty." ”

Li Siye looked up at the sky, not even refuting his thoughts at all. As long as he follows this trajectory, the position of the Anxi Jiedu envoy should be vacated.

With Gao Xianzhi's praise and encouragement, all the Tang troops who entered the city participated in the robbery, first going to the homes of the big and the rich to rob them, and then running to the homes of ordinary people and poor people to rob them. In the process of robbery, the people naturally stopped it, and then it was solved by the robbers, so the robbery was changed to murder.

Gao Xianzhi naturally didn't look down on these, what he wanted to rob was the palace of the king of Shiguo. The envoy of Jiedu, Bi Sishen, had already led most of the tooth soldiers to control the palace, waiting for Zhongcheng to come.

The king of Shiguo, Na Juche Nose Shi, led his ministers to kneel on the hard stone floor outside the palace, although he hated Gao Xianzhi's treacherous and cunning very much, he did not have the courage and courage to stand up, straighten his waist and scold the high thief. Being alive is the most basic desire, and until the last moment, everything will never be lost.

Gao Xianzhi wore a phoenix winged hood on his head, wore a copper-colored mountain armor, pressed his right hand on the handle of the knife hanging from his waist, and walked in front of the king with domineering steps. Although the way he stormed the capital was not honorable, he was content to enjoy such a victory. Seeing the king of the country in front of him kneeling in front of him, his heart gained unprecedented vanity and satisfaction.

How is Li Linfu? How is Yang Zhao? What about An Lushan? Did they break the city? Have they destroyed the country? Have they seen the noble king kneel before him?

Influenced by the Persian style, the palace has a dome structure, the roof is painted with blue lacquer, and the windows and porches are also dome-shaped. He walked up the pale yellow stone steps into the palace gate, and looked around. The roof of the palace is also rounded, with square stone pillars supporting the edges of the arches.

The king's wives and concubines covered their faces with light veils, and knelt in a corner tremblingly, because of aesthetics, Gao Xianzhi was not interested in these beauties at all, he wanted another color.

The Captain of the Tooth Soldiers led the men to scourge around the palace, piling up the gold that had been scavenged from the various rooms and storerooms, with golden crowns, pure red agate stones, and spices of all kinds in brocade boxes, and the stock of Sassanid gold coins buried half of them like a small hill.

Another Tooth Soldier Captain ran in from outside, knelt down on one knee and crossed his hands and said, "Qi Yu Zhongcheng, a fox has been found in the beast pen in the South Garden of the Imperial Palace!" There were also more than thirty white camels. ”

"Oh, take me over and see it, and bring all the white camels to the palace, and put the gold on their backs."

In the backyard of the palace, the animal trainer drove a lazy male lion out, and the soldiers were amazed and guarded, for fear that the creature would suddenly pounce.

Gao Xianzhi stood by the fence and laughed, "This is indeed a lion, also known as a lion, and it is the mount of Manjushri Bodhisattva. There are also a few of them in the beast garden of Daming Palace. Get a cage and put it up, bring a few white camels, and send them to Chang'an together to present to Your Majesty in the future. ”

The robbery of the palace came to an end, and Gao Xianzhi came to the front of the monarch and ministers of the Shi Kingdom again, and he put his hands behind his back and asked Ya Bi Sishen: "Is everyone in the palace here?" ”

Bi Sishen lowered his head and crossed his hands and said, "Zhongcheng, the king's son has run away." ”

"Ran away?" Gao Xianzhi tugged at the beard on his chin and thought.

Li Siye stood in the distance and snorted to himself, this person had been collecting money and hunting for curiosities just now, and only now did he remember to ask if anyone had escaped.

It doesn't matter, he's just waiting for the next real war to get his gorgeous turn.
