Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2088
It is midsummer, the temperature in the windless desert is very high, and there is really no wind here.

There is no wind, although it is a bit calm and will not stir up sandstorms, but in such high temperature, it will inevitably make people feel very uncomfortable.

However, although the weather was hot, those who entered the windless desert to hunt for treasure, none of them chose to leave.

Faced with the temptation of so much money, they really don't want to leave.

So they keep looking here.

However, after searching for a few more days, they still found nothing. At this time, those people had arrived in the center of the windless desert one after another.

However, until the treasure is found, they are still living in peace.

They want to keep looking, but at this time, some people are running out of food, grass and water. If they can't find any more, they may be short of water and food.

In the past few days, many people have had some fights over food and water.

But even after that, they still refused to leave.

Cao Bing led his soldiers and horses to search for this place non-stop.

"It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be, according to the rumors, the treasure is here, but we have been searching here for so long, why didn't we find it?"

Cao Bing was walking back and forth in their big tent, they were carrying little food and water, and if they couldn't find any more treasures, they might be trapped in the desert.

He is a little anxious.

"Boss, could it be that the rumor is false, there is no treasure at all?"

This idea has already been produced in many people's minds, and now that it was brought up, others quickly questioned it.

"Yes, if this rumor is false, we will lose a lot."

"If it's fake, we have to leave as soon as possible, otherwise the situation is not good for us. We have a lot of people, and food and water are consumed very quickly."

"Yeah, you have to leave now."

Money can indeed seduce people, but sometimes life is more precious, and they don't want to give up their lives for money.

Everyone proposed to leave, Cao Bing's eyes were fixed, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Let's look for two more days. If there is no gain after two days, we will choose to leave."

Two days is not very long. After hesitating for a while, everyone nodded in agreement.

And while they were looking here, thirty miles away from the center, Cheng Chumo was already leading everyone to prepare.

"Have they consumed almost all their food, grass and water?" Cheng Chumo asked, and soon, a soldier nodded: "Almost, they can't last for a few days, and according to reports from our spies, some people I've already started thinking about quitting."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Cheng Chumo's mouth, and he said, "Since they're here, can we easily make them quit? Since their food and grass are running low, it's time for us to act. Order the army to set off."

"Here!"

A group of Tang troops rushed towards the center of the windless desert. When they rushed over and surrounded everyone, Cao Bing and the others had just packed their things and were about to leave.

It's just that they haven't started to roll it out yet, a minion hastily ran over.

"Boss, it's not good, it's not good, Tang Jun... Tang Jun appeared and surrounded us."

Cao Bing is a smart person. When he heard Tang Jun suddenly appearing at this time, he felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it carefully, he immediately understood, and then he yelled: "His grandma's, unexpectedly went to Tang Jun's!" Done, Tang Jun is planning to wipe us all out, no good, no good."

Cao Bing was really nervous and scared as he walked back and forth. Tang Jun was clearly prepared, but now they have fallen into Tang Jun's trap and want to leave alive. How easy is it?
More importantly, they were running out of food. Without food, many things would be difficult.

At this time, other people also knew Tang Jun's movements. They came out of their tents one after another. After getting together, they discussed with each other, and the tense atmosphere permeated, making people feel depressing.

The Tang army had a lot of soldiers and horses, a total of three thousand soldiers and horses.

Although there are only [-] soldiers and horses, these [-] soldiers and horses have all fought bloody battles. Their killing methods are fierce, and their weapons are also many times stronger than those of these robbers, so even if these robbers and others have There are as many as five or six thousand, as long as the two sides develop, Tang Jun can crush them at any time.

Bandits without special training, where is Tang Jun's opponent?
After the three thousand soldiers came here, Cheng Chumo didn't act in a hurry, but surrounded the robbers, and after that, he ordered people to speak to the robbers.

A soldier came to the place where the robbers gathered with a loudspeaker, and then shouted loudly: "You don't need to look here, there is no treasure here at all, and we spread those rumors to lure you here Yes, but you don’t have to worry, we have no intention of killing you. If you are willing to surrender and be recruited by us, we can spare your lives. If you make military achievements in the future, your benefits will be indispensable, but if you don’t If you are willing to surrender and call for safety, then don’t blame us for being rude, if you call for safety, you can survive, if you don’t call for safety, you will die, we have plenty of time for you to think about it slowly, you can think about it.”

After finishing speaking, the general of the Tang army didn't mean to say it a second time, so he retreated directly.

On Cheng Chumo's side, he was really not in a hurry, and just stayed outside, waiting for the choices of those people in the city.

Of course, in his opinion, the people inside have no choice at all. In this kind of place, if they try their best, they will die, and if they don't try their best and refuse to surrender, they will also die.

You know, their food and grass are running out. When their food and water are getting less and less, do they have other options besides surrendering?
No, they can only be recruited, because the taste of starvation is not good, and the taste of not having water to drink is even more fatal.

As long as they are too hungry and thirsty, their own camp will be in chaos. At that time, survival is the most important thing, and in order to survive, they can only surrender to the Tang army and be recruited by the Tang army.

Many of them are considered desperadoes. It is best for such people to join the army.

In war, sometimes you have to die.

Cheng Chumo had already made a plan, so all they had to do was wait.

Also just wait.
