The Tiger Guards plundered all the way, marching towards the capital of the Seljuk Kingdom, Samad Horse, and all the towns and villages along the way were not spared, the Tiger Guards took the way to first march fifty miles and then block the road, so that the follow-up troops began to grab people, the purpose of blocking the road was to prevent the news from leaking, and the area by area was carried out. 【 High Quality Update 】

Along the upper reaches of the Jihun River, the area is first the big city of Ter'er Maze and then along the Jihun River all the way to the north, the left of the large river is always some areas densely populated with villages and towns, until the Puhualuo City is grabbed, it is basically equivalent to the capital city of Samad surrounded, although the Tiger Guards strictly blocked the news, but the news still went out, and the whole area was panicked for a while!

The robbery of a large number of people and property made Baishui City and other towns in the territory of Western Liao immediately crowded, along the Jihun River to the upper reaches of the area until the Six Star City, the people of the Seljuk Kingdom were escorted all the way to the territory of Western Liao by the Tiger Guards, and their hometowns and towns were all burned!

Along the way, the clouds and fog are miserable, and the crying continues! The most tragic thing in the world is this kind of thing, many old people who don't want to move away have been killed, and Xiao Ming has created hatred along the way in this area! But he knew that time could make up for all wrongs, and hatred could be counteracted by favors.

After the Lost City of Tesla and the city of Puhuaro were burned, Aswan of Samad finally alerted him to the fact that something was wrong, but at this time, more than 10,000 Tiger Guards were gradually approaching Samad City, and a battle against the capital of the Seljuk Kingdom was about to begin, and Aswan was also actively preparing for a counterattack.

The battle finally started on the periphery of Samad City, and Aswan was very jealous of the Golden Legion in the Western Regions, but a fire caused the Golden Legion to be defeated, which also made Aswan arrogant in his heart, and gradually no one rose in his eyes, and now he organized more than 50,000 light cavalry to eat this group of Tiger Guards in one go.

Before the war, Aswan despised this group of Tiger Guards who couldn't do a good job on horseback, so he didn't see the consequences of this war very seriously at all, and it was a big deal to abandon the city again and move to the west, his army was very suitable for this kind of long-distance raid and large-scale interspersed operations, and he believed that he could finally annex the entire territory of Western Liao!

Once the battle started, the huge casualties made Aswan shocked, first of all, the cannon used by others, this kind of cannon is not what he imagined at all, not only the number is not large and the size is not large, but the power is not small, this kind of war is not an equal one, the beginning is fast and the end is fast!

In the case of realizing that something was wrong, Aswan hurriedly abandoned the city of Samad and quickly broke through to the west with tens of thousands of light cavalry, and seeing that he was abandoned by his own king, the city of Samad was completely paralyzed and surrendered early the next morning! And Wu Gang, who is actually only going to fight this time, is still directing the artillery to prepare the position to bombard the city!

Now that Samad has surrendered, the next step is to rob, first to loot the national wealth of the entire Seljuk Kingdom and not transport it back to Western Liao, and then to force the population to relocate, this time Xiao Ming ordered those who dared not to move to be executed immediately, which was a purposeful decree.

The first target was the nobles and magnates of those kingdoms, and countless princes and nobles were killed at this opportunity, killing these people not only confiscated their property, but also the servants and subordinates of the family would be grateful to you, and this slaughter continued among the nobles of the Western Turks until the entire city of Samad was emptied.

Samad was once a famous city in Central Asia, he connected the sphere of influence of the Persians in the west, the south is basically the entire Afghanistan region and Tianzhu's territory, and the north is directly bordered by the flower thorn Zim, so this area can be said to be an important town on the entire ancient Silk Road!

It is also a meeting place for several religions, including Manichaeism, Buddhism, Islam, and Judaism, and the city is home to countless monuments and temples, including some famous Buddhist temples! But Xiao Ming's order was to destroy the city, so a fire ignited the famous city in Central Asia!

The classic treasures and valuables of various temples are countless, and all that can be pulled away will be taken away, and all that cannot be pulled away will be burned, this is a catastrophe of human culture and civilization, but Xiao Ming doesn't care so much! I have burned down even your Seljuk royal city, let alone the temple in it!

The whole robbery lasted for more than half a month, plundering more than 450,000 people, countless gold, silver and jewelry, Xiao Ming's old rules remain unchanged, he only needs gold, as for jewelry and other things, it doesn't matter if he wants it, but the large amount of finance, it is constantly rewarded, which makes Xiao Zhonggong a little anxious!

"So much wealth is necessary to restore the entire Xiliao region, how can you reward it all?"

Xiao Ming looked at this righteous brother's angry appearance, laughed, he pulled Xiao Zhonggong and said, "Big brother, don't worry, I have nearly two million taels of silver for you!" Is it enough? It's not enough to leave all the wealth you will grab in the future, right? ”

Knowing that Xiao Ming deliberately left such a huge sum of money, Xiao Zhonggong immediately turned his anger into joy, but he still said worriedly: "There are a lot of people who have been plundered, but we have destroyed their homes, these people must hate us in their hearts, how can this be good?" ”

Xiao Ming said: "Although I plundered the army, but the discipline of the Tiger Guard is excellent, except for those rich and rich people, the property of the ordinary people has been retained, these people actually have a piece of land, after you exempt them, exempt them from taxes for a few years, and encourage them to have more children and open up more land, it will not take a few years for the hearts of the people to be attached!" ”

"That's a good plan!" Xiao Zhonggong said sincerely: "But when will this go?" ”

Xiao Ming sneered: "This is just the beginning, I want to form a no-man's land of nearly a thousand miles in the entire region, which is enough to prevent the invasion and disturbance of the inner and outer clans in a hundred years, and then my Great Song Xiliao Autonomous Province will be a relatively prosperous and developed region!" That's what I'm here for! ”

When he heard Xiao Ming's huge plan, Xiao Zhonggong was stunned, but he didn't say how Xiao Zhonggong digested Xiao Ming's words on the spot, first said that the Mongolian Naiyan tribe should also be fast, although they engaged in very few things and battles, but Xiao Ming rewarded them with a lot of things and treasures! This made the interest of this group of Mongolians extremely high!

"The king's kindness to me is as high as Yanbu Mountain, and I should not be able to repay the king for the place where I need my Yanbu to contribute, we will fight to the death and never delay!" He should have said to Xiao Ming quickly.

Xiao Ming looked at them with a smile and said loudly: "Everyone has followed me Xiao Ming for thousands of miles to fight here, how can you let you shed blood and sweat without gaining?" This is only a small part, and I want you to continue to raid like a wolf! Go and get your deserved riches! ”

The Mongols are screaming! The crowd was excited, and sincerely worshiped Xiao Ming, of course, Xiao Ming knew that the Mongols would inevitably kill people when they were plundering, he just asked to kill less, catch more prisoners and come back, the vast territory of Western Liao needs a large number of people, and can not do more killing, and the Mongols of Naiyan naturally obey this request wholeheartedly.

Xiao Ming's Tiger Guards plundered and almost robbed half of the Seljuk Kingdom, which finally angered the King of Aswan, and if this continued, the Western Turkic Kingdom that he had worked so hard to establish would be finished, I didn't expect these Chinese Great Song people to be so vicious, this is even more robber than a bandit!

A large number of people were moved to Baishui City, and then secretly transferred to other places, so that the Aswan spies who came to investigate mistakenly thought that the population was basically concentrated in Baishui City, and Aswan finally gathered 100,000 people to rob people, not only to snatch the population back, but also to take advantage of the situation to hit the capital of the Western Liao Kingdom.

But he also had to consider the strong force of the Tiger Guards, the Seljuk Kingdom believed in Islam, so the role of priests and Mass could make up for the dead souls of the soldiers, and secondly, they found a kind of rattan armor to wear on their bodies, and experiments showed that they could prevent the shooting of crossbows, and they always believed that the Tiger Guards used long-range hidden weapons similar to crossbows.

The Aswan army was about to stop and headed east, but everywhere they went was in ruins, all the towns and villages were scorched, and everywhere they went was shocking, the soldiers gritted their teeth, and Aswan was even more furious, swearing to stand with the Great Song Dynasty of China!

Xiao Ming adopted a scorched earth policy on the enemy's territory, never leaving the enemy with a single grass, tree and grain, and also saved the trouble of sending troops to garrison the occupied towns, and the local people were all plundered, making this large area of land almost uninhabited and desolate, which also increased the logistical pressure on Aswan!

The Aswan army was divided into three ways to attack the Western Liao Kingdom's False Assassination, Baishui City and Liuxing City, the three cities had a large number of immigrants, and keeping these plundered people was nothing more than to attract the enemy's troops, but the other party's army was quite numerous, so Xiao Ming naturally needed to pay attention to it, everyone held a meeting to discuss it, and then waited according to Xiao Ming's deployment.

According to Xiao Ming's analysis, Aswan must know that the main population is concentrated in Whitewater City, and the False Assassin City and the Six Star City are only used by them to share the enemy's offensive, and Aswan will definitely not attack the White Water City first, he is likely to attack the False Assassin and the Six Star City first, and then wait for the Tiger Guards to send troops from White Water City to support, so that the defense of White Water City will definitely be weak, and then attack White Water City with all their might, defeating the Tiger Guards to capture White Water City in one fell swoop.

Judging from the appearance of the Aswan army divided into three roads, Xiao Ming estimated that the other party would definitely arrange it in this way, and the hot air balloon during the war had been raised into the air to observe the opponent's movements, and the Aswan army had camped far away in Baishui City in the middle of the road, and the two outer roads had been driven until the front of the False Attack and Six Star City before camping also illustrated this.

Since the other party thinks so, Xiao Ming asked the other party to put his ideas into practice, this is the plan, Aswan's army is all light cavalry, but this time when the army is gathered, horses have become a problem, so more than 20,000 of his 100,000 horses have become infantry, but these infantry are the main force of his siege.

Light infantry had to use special equipment to attack the city, so the infantry mainly used to prepare these siege equipment, they used a kind of chariot learned from Persia, made of wood, soldiers could climb to the top of the chariot to shoot arrows, and the bottom was propelled forward by slaves and strong men, and once they got close to the wall, they could immediately climb the wall.

This heavy equipment naturally lagged behind the ladder invented by the Chinese, because the attack points were relatively concentrated, and the attack points of the ladder were scattered, and the soldiers defending the city could not do both, of course, they also had ropes used to throw up the tower, and then the cavalry left the mount to climb the city with ropes.

This kind of equipment is really a bit pediatric for Xiao Ming's Tiger Guards, but in order to paralyze the enemy, they are still in full array, and a big battle is about to break out, but Xiao Ming and his generals are very calm, basically Xiao Ming has not come to Baishui City in person, he is now playing chess and drinking with Xiao Zhonggong in the Western Liao Capital!
