Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 968 The Significance of Living Well

Thousands of captives, young and strong, are driven to fill trenches with negative soil!
This is a common trick used by the Mongols in history, very cruel and bloody.Under the knife of the Mongols, it is their choice most of the time to drive the people to fill the trenches with firewood, soil and sand.

This can bring great terror and mental pressure to the enemy, shake their will and shake their determination.But this does not mean that this method was pioneered by the Mongols.They just carried it forward.

Regardless of things, there are too many tragedies in the world that happened during the war. The difference is only the size of the impact and whether it has been passed down to future generations.

In fact, the Kepchaks had other ways to attack the city, such as surrounding Yangjigan City and taking their time.Just like the way the Rickpuchaks fought siege warfare in the past.

But isn't there a time limit now?It's almost March, and Lu Qi's army seems quite far away, but what about Kang Juguo?
The Kipchak people are now facing two enemies, one is the traitor Zhan Kejia, and the other is Kangju in the south.

They must win Yangji Gancheng in the shortest possible time.

Moreover, there is another advantage of using human lives to fill in, which is to deter the defenders!

In the past few years, monotheistic religions have experienced a great revival in the entire East Kupchak - not to mention compared with the past, but it cannot be underestimated.But it only suffered in two places. One was the territory of the Naiman people. Baruch was determined to be a lackey for the Chinese, so he naturally paid no attention to the monotheistic religion; the second was here in Zhankerong.Regardless of whether the people here miss the monotheistic religion very much, from a religious perspective, they are all 'traitors', full of sin.And how can we not cleanse ourselves of all the sins in our body?

Five chances to atone for your sins.This is a lesson to the herdsmen here. The pain will be deeply engraved in their bones and will be engraved in the hearts of all Dongkupchak people.

Seeing the end of the 'traitor', those Kipchak people who knelt before God again must feel very lucky and happy in their hearts.

Isn't their 'Lord' protecting them?

The interaction between the shepherds and the tribal leaders led to the cruel scene in front of Yangji Gancheng.

Very cruel scene.When the order was transmitted to those young and strong ears, countless screams rang out.Even the most ignorant person can imagine the danger of doing so.

Five times, arrows rained down like rain, one time was enough to kill them.

The people escorted here are all men and healthy women, how could they be willing to kill them?The road ahead is death, and they are not willing to throw themselves into the arms of death.

However, the coalition forces that had been prepared for a long time, a large number of elite soldiers and strong generals were ready to take their positions, and Malik rode on the back of a good black horse, bent his bow and set his arrows, and the arrows pointed directly at them, waiting for them.

The crowd who were pointed at by thousands or more bows and arrows fell silent, and the crowd who were pointed at by spears and sabers fell silent.

"Swish, swish..." A puff of arrows shot out, and dozens of people fell down immediately.Don't give them a chance to hesitate at all, this method is simply cruel!

Blood splattered, and the exclamation of the crowd was earth-shattering.

It is indeed very dangerous to go to fill the trench, but no matter how dangerous it is, there is a chance to survive.And if they resist now, they will definitely die.

Those men and women could only grab bags of soil and sand with full of anger and hatred, and rush towards Yangji Gancheng.I was afraid that if I moved a little slower, I would be shot to death from behind by those unreasonable devils!

Then these people rushed to the city wall crying and crying, and their hoarse shouts joined together.

"Don't shoot the arrow, please, don't shoot the arrow..."

Malik wanted to laugh when he heard it from behind.He didn't believe that when Zhanke gathered his forces, he would leave the forces loyal to him outside the city.Since these people gave up on Zhankejia at the beginning, now they come to pray for mercy from Zhankejia, isn't it ridiculous?

Naturally, the defenders in the city would not pay attention to it, and as soon as the crowd entered the range, the feathered arrows fell like raindrops...

……

The aborigines filled the trench with soil, crying and forming a wave of people, rushing towards the tall dry city wall of Yangji.

There was a thousand cavalry on each side of them, sandwiching the crowd in the middle, and advancing together.And in the large formation at the rear, there is also a pair of long ladders that are squared on the ground, and at the end are 'heavy infantry' in armor, they attack the main force of Yangji Gancheng.

There are many coalition cavalry, but it is impossible for horses to fly to the top of the city.

Malik was among them, watching the rain of arrows knock men and women to the ground, and they were always wandering outside the range of the arrow rain, urging the crowd to die.

The sound of "beep" rang in Malik's ear, which was the occasional sound of arrow clusters hitting the shield.

Tianfang people and Europeans At this time, shields are very useful weapons for warriors, not just infantry.It is also common for cavalry to wear small bucklers.Of course, round shields mostly belong to the Tianfang side, and Europeans often wear kite-shaped shields, which provide more effective protection than traditional small round shields. However, due to the increased weight, they must be held diagonally on the shoulders when holding them. Cross one strap.

"With such equipment, how can we win against the Chinese?" Malik was not at all excited about the scene in front of him, and his heart was filled with darkness.

Zhan Kejia is just a small threshold of "insignificance", and the Chinese people are a big river.What is there to be proud of in crossing a small threshold?Big rivers are even more deadly.

He thought of the weapons used by the Chinese back then. Those cannons were not something the cities on the Chincha Grassland could resist at all.And according to the determination of the nobles above, moving the tribes one by one to Xiqinchao and lengthening the space between each other, can they really drag the Chinese down?

There are only a hundred households in Malik, and he can imagine how much trouble each of the tribes going west will cause to Xiqincha.

No one wants to see their own land occupied by outsiders. He can imagine what kind of chaos will be in the border of Xiqincha.

Not to mention that the various tribes of the Eastern Chinchak are only 'temporarily staying', which tribe would dare to return to the Eastern Chinchak before the relationship with China is completely eliminated?Aren't you afraid of being uprooted by the Chinese?

It's okay for a distant relative to come to my house and stay for a short period of three to five days.And if they live for three to five years, and even want to turn against customers..., then how can there be fewer fights and fights?
Malik really has no hope for the future of the Kepchaks.

Zhan Kejia is also watching the tragedy outside the city at the moment, there is no sadness on his face, only joy, but tears are shining in his eyes.

……

Yulong Jiechi, the capital of Kangju State.

Ah Jisi was looking at the urgent report in his hand with a headache, but the Seljuks took the initiative to attack, which would greatly restrict his strength. "How can I save and support Jigan?"

"My lord, why go north? Da Qi did not ask us to immediately send reinforcements to Zhan Ke Rong." Ibrahim said.On the contrary, Yelu Dashi was immediately mobilized. The latter was already gathering troops and reinforcements were about to arrive.

"Yes, no. But I'm going to make this positive gesture, don't I?"

Lu Qi was about to officially start a war with the Seljuks, which gave Ajisi a sense of urgency.

Kangju must show his role!
Only in this way can they ensure that their status and interests will not be affected in the upcoming curtain. "We have to reveal our own meaning, the meaning of our existence."

"Father, shouldn't the meaning of our existence be for the Seljuks? What we should do is to resist the Seljuks' offensive." Arslan said.

From the beginning to the end, no one in Huacizimo thought that Lu Qi would occupy Tianfang. Of course, Lu Qian did not intend to swallow up the Seljuk Empire.But to rule a place, it is not necessarily necessary to occupy the other side.
