With a loud bang, Atuye, the defender of Kedu City, who was sleeping, woke up. When he shook his head and was about to yell, he suddenly felt a shock and a cold wind blew in, which immediately made Atuye wake up. At this time,
Cai found that there were several men holding sharp swords standing in the bedroom, but it was not clear in the dim bedroom.
Immediately, Atuye, who was about to ask, heard a series of screams coming from the entire General's Mansion, which immediately made Atuye feel cold all over.
The candlestick in the bedroom was lit, and Atuye then realized that the man in the room was not from the Western Regions, but from the Han people.[
"We are the soldiers of the Great Zhao, and from now on, you are our prisoners. You have two choices, either obey or die. Now, put on your clothes and go to the military camp with us." Without waiting for Atuye to speak, this group of people
The leader of the Han people said coldly.
Atuye did not dare to refuse, so he quickly put on his clothes and got up. But he didn't understand in his heart how the Zhao army's people appeared in the westernmost part of the alliance? Could it be that the Han people in the caravan in the city caused trouble
?
There is no reason for Atu's guess. Because the Southern Confederate fought with the Zhao army, although the caravans that were coming and going were not completely blocked, the caravans of the Han people and the caravans of the Western Regions were strictly investigated.
It is not unreasonable for the soldiers to seek benefits from it and anger these Han people.
When I arrived at the military camp, I took care of you. You thought that if I took control of me, I would be able to do whatever I wanted in Keduo City. When this general seized the opportunity, I would definitely have a dilemma for life and death. At this moment, Atuye thought that this was some guards in the Han caravans because
I was deliberately causing trouble from the border soldiers.
However, in addition to the door, Atuye discovered that his general's mansion was already covered with these Han people. What frightened him even more was that these Han people were not the caravan guards he had expected, but regular soldiers.
"You are the soldiers of the Great Zhao? How is it possible? Are the Shule countries already destroyed?" Atuye immediately exclaimed. The soldiers of the Zhao army appeared in Kedu City. What does this mean? Unless the first one in the east
The country has been defeated by the Zhao army. Otherwise, how could the Zhao army soldiers suddenly appear in this southwestern part of the Western Regions?
"Hmph... these are not what you should care about. Now, my Da Zhao soldiers have entered the city, and your command is surrounded by our army. If you want to survive, go to the military camp and persuade them to surrender, otherwise, my general will be in the middle of your life.
I don't mind destroying all the soldiers of your Kedu City."
Atuye followed the Zhao soldiers to the city camp with horror. The scene he saw on the road made Atuye feel relieved. The Zhao soldiers came and went, and some were ready to go out.
The residents in the city who checked the situation were all killed by Zhao soldiers without any mercy.
Zhao Jie and 1,500 soldiers raided the camp of Keducheng defenders. The unexpected defenders of Keducheng suffered heavy losses. In just a short moment, the chaos of Keducheng defenders were anxious by Zhao's army.
More than 400 people, the remaining ones were also trapped in a corner. The place where they retreated was the warehouse of the Keduo City Military Camp, which contained a large amount of city guards hoarded by the Keduo City defenders. Zhao Jie
Worried about being damaged by these guards in Keduo City, the soldiers who raided the General's Mansion led the guards in Keduo City to take him here.
Things were going smoothly. When Atuye learned that the Zhao army had entered the city, he thought that the Zhao army in the east had entered Shule and other countries, and he had also died of his desire to serve the country with death. So, under the persuasion of Atuye
The remaining defenders hiding in the warehouse all put down their weapons and surrendered to the Zhao army.
It was very smooth to control Keduo City. Even a raid was not lost. Zhao Jie immediately began to investigate the whole city. All young and strong people were transferred to unified management. The soldiers began overnight.
The city was heightened and thickened. In addition, they were asked to start digging trenches outside the city and build horse-resisting horses to form a three-dimensional defense.
What satisfied Zhao Jie was that the warehouse of Keduo City stored a lot of city guarding materials and food, which made him lose his worries about sticking to this place.
The next day, the sky was still snowing, and the whole earth was covered with white space. The traces left by the battle last night were also covered with snow.
"General, the weather is cold, and it is very troublesome to build a city. In addition, it is also very difficult to dig trenches outside the city. I am afraid that if I continue, I will use these three thousand young men for our use, and wait until Shule and other countries attack us.
, We won’t have much change here.”
Zhou Qing, the commander in charge of supervising these prisoners and the young and brave men, reported to Zhao Jie, who came to investigate the situation with a bitter face.
Zhao Jie looked at the sky. In the weather, when the news came back, Shule** team came to attack, and it took only five days. If you want to improve the defense here, the temperature that even the earth was frozen.
It's really not easy.
Zhao Jie did not answer directly, but instead went downstairs to investigate the city wall, asked some prisoners, and finally squatted down and pushed the ground away, looking at the frozen ground.
"Immediately send an order to let the residents in the city less hot water, sprinkle it on the ground, and then start construction. In addition, the digging of soil should also be packed in sacks and transported to the city wall."
Zhou Qing said in confusion: "General, splash water on the ground. This mark is clear that it is not to dissolve the frozen soil on the ground. However, if you put the soil with water on it and put it on the city wall, what is the meaning?
”[
"You will understand in a while. In addition, build the trees cut from the forest ahead on the city walls and build a taller and thicker shelf."
Then, Zhou Qing saw that there were several large pots placed on the land outside the city wall. Someone kept shoveling the snow into the pot. At the same time, someone shoveled a frame of snow from a distance and went to the pot.
Pour in. After the water boils, it immediately spills it on the designated position, and then it is dug up by the young man. Finally, they knocked the wet soil dug into the sack.
Then, Zhou Qing discovered that under the instructions of Zhao Jie, a team of young and strong men built a high-rise wall frame on the city wall with trees under the arrangement of craftsmen. Then, a sack filled with soil was put into
The frame is filled. So, while digging trenches under the city wall, the excavated soil is filled into sacks and piled on the city wall.
"The general wants..." Suddenly, Zhou Qing realized something.
Zhao Jie smiled and said, "It's the coldest time now, and the temperature in the Western Regions is several times colder than that in the Central Plains. I asked, in this kind of weather, even if you put a pot of hot water, you can take a moment to finish it.
It condensed into solid ice. What is the most here? The snow and soil are just working together. Digging trenches below. We just need to build a frame on it, put the dirt in, and then pour ice water on it outside. It only takes one night, tomorrow
You can increase a layer above this city wall, and then there will be a higher and unbreakable wall here than before."
"Even if the enemy comes, it will be difficult to take over here. We just need to wait until our army defeats the alliance of all countries."
"A general is a good method!" After hearing Zhao Jie's explanation, Zhou Qing and others sighed, "In this way, we can be called restless. With the city after the heightening, there is no siege in the city.
In the case of equipment, it is basically impossible to be compromised here. The Shule countries have no siege equipment at all. Of course, even if there are, they can transport it in time under such weather."
Zhao Jie smiled and said, "This is not my idea. When the king and our brothers started in a short period of time, they told us many examples of battles and the most reasonable and simplest method of offense and defense under various circumstances."
In the early morning, on the western banks of the Beihe River Basin, on the cold winter morning, the lakeside was filled with white mist like a gauze. The river water was clear, and the floating ice collided, making a rattle sound.
Going west along the Beihe River Basin is the remaining alliance of countries. The closest place where the Zhao army is now occupied is the country of donors, and the country of donors lives in the western part of the Beihe River.
When Zhao Jie learned that he had arrived at Kedu City and had not taken action, Zhao Xun had already begun to mobilize his troops to advance westward quietly. This time, not only the Zhao army in the east were operating, but Li Chenfeng's troops on the northern line were also
Siege to the south.
Xu Ye took a deep breath of cold air and forced himself to suppress the eagerness in his heart. He bent down and gently stroked the war horse under his crotch that could not be controlled. A small school leader came to him
beside him.
"General, five miles away from the front is Heyun City in the eastern part of the Duoduo Kingdom. The defenders in the city have not learned about our actions, and they have not changed their defenses yet."
"It seems that they have not woken up yet." Xu Ye sneered, "Send an order, the whole army will attack!"
Xu Ye rode his horse forward, and five thousand cavalry followed closely behind. The white land was in chaos because of the past of the cavalry, leaving traces.
At the beginning, the soldiers advanced slowly, but when the outline of the gate of the market town in front was clear, Xu Ye shouted violently and accelerated suddenly. Xu Ye's war horse also nipped violently and ran wildly with his hooves.
At twenty steps away from the wooden city gate, several strong knights rushed out, holding chain hammers in their hands. Immediately, the knights threw out the chain hammers that had already been swinging, and fiercely
He smashed it out. There was a loud bang, and he swung back into the lonely morning.
Immediately afterwards, the five thousand cavalry roared deafeningly and rushed into the city like the wind...
The area of Heyun City is not very large, with about 1,500 households and more than 5,000 people. However, since the Zhao army approached, many of the donor countries and the alliance troops were stationed, with a total of 6,000.
Yu Zhong. However, because the Zhao army had not shown signs of advancing west for more than two months, and the cold winter was coming and the Zhao army was in the new year, the defenders here were not too careful.
"Kill! Anyone who dares to resist will kill you. Burn all the defensive weapons and kill all the enemy soldiers. This time, we don't want to capture them."
Xu Ye, who rushed into Heyun City, ordered sternly, and the five thousand cavalry rushed to different places. The broken city gate also began to burn under the tincture of the soldiers until it turned into ashes.
.
Because this place is about to be the jurisdiction of the Zhao army, this time, it did not attack the people in the city, nor did it destroy the houses of the residents in the city. However, the military camp and the government suffered a devastating blow...[
The screams and shrill cry began to come from the military camps and government places in the city, and the mansions of the powerful and powerful in the city were also attacked and killed by the Zhao army. These powerful and powerful people controlled the wealth of the city, but they were not
The killings that Zhao army needed lasted for half an hour, and the flames soared into the sky illuminated the darkness before dawn...
Looking at the city not far ahead, Nangong Hao narrowed his eyes and shouted suddenly: "Zi Luo City? Kill!"
The word "kill" exit, the Zhao cavalry rode his horse and charged forward. Nangong Hao took the lead and urged the horse to rush towards the city gate that opened. Before the soldiers guarding the city could react, they were captured by a small team of cavalrymen.
.Immediately, a loud rumbling sound came from a distance, and a black cavalry rushed into the city gate in the snow...
"The Zhao army is coming...The Zhao army has entered the city..." In an instant, a shrill cry came from near the gate of Ziluo City, accompanied by a long horn sound.
After a while, before the defenders in the city could react, countless Zhao troops had already filled the entire street and rushed towards various places. The Zhao cavalry attacked with various weapons, and any enemy who dared to stop them may be
All the people were beheaded by the Zhao army on the spot, and wherever they passed, flesh and blood were flying...
In one day, Xu Ye and Nangong Hao each traveled more than a hundred miles and each took two cities in a row. Heyun City, Ziluo City... One city after another was captured by the Zhao army, waiting.
When the King of Donor received the news, only the capital was left in his territory. Before he could report the news to Shule Kingdom, he asked the Alliance Army for help. The Donor of Donor had been destroyed by the Zhao army, and the donation within his territory
The Poison Team and the Alliance Army, more than 14,000 people have disappeared.
At the same time, the two countries in the north of the alliance were also defeated by Li Chenfeng's army at the same time. The kings of the two countries and the powerful people of the two countries survived.
The news that the Three Kingdoms were destroyed by the Zhao army spread throughout the Alliance, making the remaining ten Alliance countries, including Shule, unlucky.
So, the powerful and powerful countries began to prepare to escape, and began to let the people in the family gather wealth and prepare to flee west. However, just as the powerful and the kings of various countries began to prepare to flee west, Keduo City was captured by the Zhao army for many days.
But it came. In an instant, all the powerful and kings of all countries felt as if they were dead.
The war could not defeat Zhao State; the escape had no way to escape. In a sudden, the powerful and powerful countries were killed. Even King Shule heard the news and shouted loudly in the palace to curse the might of the guards of Kedu City. At the same time, they
I was also shocked. How the Zhao army appeared at the westernmost part of the alliance was actually known to the countries of the alliance.
At this moment, King Shule seemed to be ten years old, his temples were a little gray. What does it mean that Kedu City was occupied by the Zhao army? It means that they have been blocked by the Zhao army in the southwest corner of the Western Regions. The east is Zhao.
What about the army, is the Zhao army in the north, the Zhao army in the west, and the south? It is an unattainable mountain.
Now, is it impossible to escape? Fight, but it is not a match for the Zhao army. The powerful and powerful people in Shule became impatient, which made King Shule stand out. Fortunately, these powerful and important officials also knew that they were now with Shule.
The king is the same, and no one can escape. The Zhao army's current actions are clearly to eradicate all kings and powerful people from all countries, let the slaves in their former families become the new masters here, and to live on equal terms with the Han people.
It has to be said that the kings and powerful people in the countries that the Zhao army now captured were all eliminated, but ordinary people have exempted various taxes for three years and have been exempted forever. In addition, some people who were slaves in the past
The lower-class people of the Western Regions have now become the people of Zhao. In this way, the Zhao army quickly gained the hearts of the people of the destroyed countries. This was also formally the Zhao army destroyed the countries and did not encounter them.
There are even reasons why many people began to welcome the people.
When King Shule heard something happened to Keduo City, he instinctively reacted that he destroyed the Zhao army and took back Keduo City. After all, he had this idea when he learned about the results of the countries such as Khotan.
Of course, in fact, he did this, and he had to do it. Zhao Jun attacked on the East and North Road and had already begun a full-scale attack. Without taking back Kedu City, a person like him would be unable to escape.
Once you die.
But he ignored the impact of this incident on the alliance countries. After the news of Keduo City spread throughout the countries, the alliance countries began to shake their hearts. If they could not defeat and could not escape, many people began to start
He lost confidence, and even his actions to defend against the Zhao army's continued invasion were much slower.
So, King Shule and the powerful and powerful in the court began to mobilize their troops to attack Kedu City, preparing to open the intersection of the west fleeing, while starting to win over the alliance countries and let them start to defend the death on the spot. At the same time, King Shule also began to
Use the situation of the destruction of the Three Kingdoms to warn the other countries that if they cannot resist the Zhao army, they will be the same as the destruction of the Three Kingdoms.
Of course, they also need to permanently block the Zhao army. It is enough to block the Zhao army before Keduo City is taken back. However, the purpose of the Alliance Army in the past was not like this. What they wanted in the past was to block the Zhao army.
The invasion preserved their respective countries, and even after the Zhao army retreated back to the Central Plains of the Han people, they took advantage of the situation to counterattack and occupied the entire Western Regions. Unfortunately, in just half a year, the Zhao army has defeated the alliance army to pieces.
, It's not the same. There are more than twenty alliance countries, but there are less than ten now.
At this time, the Zhao army continued to stop attacking, and began to send envoys in the remaining alliances, telling them that as long as they surrender, the Zhao army would allow them to surrender. Moreover, the Zhao army would only trace the alliance's initiator Shule
The responsibility of the country is not deliberately harassed against other people. Of course, in addition to surrender, these kings and powerful people have to pay a lot of money to redeem their lives. In addition, they also have to assist the Zhao army in taking over the local area and appease the
People.
So, before Shule Kingdom could react, Xiye, east of Shule Kingdom, surrendered to the Zhao army, allowing the Zhao army to directly approach Shule Kingdom and the Pamirs.
This time, the Zhao army directly "shoule" approached Shule Kingdom. The remaining four small countries were also countries with very close relations with Shule Kingdom. Their existence was also related to the support of Shule Kingdom. Therefore, they
