Chapter 447 Zhizhi City

"Throw!" Under Zhizhi City, Zhang He and others who had already arrived here began to attack the city.

The assembled catapults began to throw, and the improvised catapults began to prepare to storm the city.

There is no barbican structure here, so as long as you break through the gate, you can drive straight in.

Not to mention the rammed earth city wall, which is only about four meters.

Speaking of Zhizhi City, it was built after the Northern Huns fled here, and its name comes from Zhizhi Chanyu.

But after so many years, this place has also become the gateway to Kangju.

According to what the prisoners said, there were [-] people here and [-] soldiers.

In the end, he was beaten ten times, and he honestly admitted that there were less than [-] defenders in the city. After all, most of the defenders had been defeated by Zhang He.

In fact, no matter how many people there are in the city, for the generals, fighting is all they need, and they just lack combat merit.

Many people were a little confused. How could Zhang He understand what the other party said?
Zhang He really didn't understand it at first, but he was completely able to gamify it, so he dedicated one night to learning Kangju language and he got it.

I don’t dare to say that the dictation is smooth. At least I can understand some basic languages ​​and numbers. After all, one night is still too short.

The catapult can easily smash the gate, and then it's time to siege the city.

Zhang He used Xie Congjun as the vanguard, and the infantry stayed behind. After fighting a bloody road, he handed over to the cavalry for the final sweep.

"Why do you feel like we have become the bad guys?" Zhang He thought for a while.

After all, he did not come with righteousness this time, but was a pure invader.

"There are no good or bad people between countries. There is only a difference between winners and losers." Jia Xu said.

In the eyes of most of the entourage, killing Han people can be called unkind, and the lives of these barbarians are worthless.

However, Zhuge Liang said that he should try not to massacre ordinary people, otherwise it would be against the harmony of nature.

Zhang He remembered that when he burned the vine-armed soldiers, Zhuge Liang lamented that this approach was harmful to Tianhe.

The question of burning vine-armored soldiers is itself the content of the novel. Whether Zhuge Liang has said this is still open to question.

So what he said at this moment was probably to take advantage of his own wishes.

"Isn't that natural?" Zhang He scolded with a smile, "We are not villains who enjoy killing, so there is no need to massacre people!"

If there is really no difference between the three lights, then what is the difference between myself and that person?
Not to mention how much wealth an ordinary family can have, even if they are shabby and scrappy, only those families of nobles and those in power are wealthy!
After a while, the army began to march straight in. Zhang He followed behind, not in a hurry to advance.

After all, he is a king and already the largest ruler of a country. No matter how brave he is, his status will not change in any way.

On the contrary, the braver he is, the less battle merits the soldiers below will receive.

If he accidentally dies in battle, everything will be over.

By the time he entered the city, the battlefield had already begun to be cleaned.

There were corpses everywhere, and the ground was covered in blood.

War is bound to be accompanied by death and disability. Zhang He chose not to look at it and put away his kindness.

If there is a bottom line, it is to leave casualties to the enemy and mercy to your own people.

She is not the Holy Mother, who loves all nations in the world without distinction...

Oh, even the Holy Mother can't do it.

Taking the Catholics as an example, their mercy is only for the people of God, that is to say, civilizations that are not covered by Catholicism and do not enjoy the love of the Blessed Mother.

In other words, the glory of the Virgin Mary or God is just an excuse for them to launch a war of aggression...

Then you are right to think about it. The Holy Mother has always been so selfish and has double standards at all times and in all countries.

"General, the nobles here have been controlled, and no one has escaped!" Not long after, Pang De came back to report.

"Kill all the nobles, and those in power will let the people choose whether to kill or not to kill!" Zhang He ordered.

No matter what country the nobles belong to, there is nothing wrong with killing them all.

This group controls the most resources and is always the source of unrest in a country.

Killing them all would even allow Kang Juguo's people's livelihood to improve rapidly after the war, and maybe even bring about a renaissance.The person in power may or may not be from a noble family, leaving it to the people to decide whether to live or die.

Keep good officials and cut off bad ones. What matters is democracy and freedom.

"Clean up the city a little. I don't want the people here to be affected by the plague." Zhang He ordered, "We will stay here for about two days, after I finish checking the documents here."

There are not many documents here. From here on, they no longer use bamboo slips or paper, but parchment. Of course, cheap ones include pottery boards and wooden tablets.

The writing is very unfamiliar, but it’s pretty good, at least it’s not a knotty note…

There are five recorded large cities, which are the capitals of the five small kings, namely: Su City (Shi State), Fumo City (Jushangnejia State), Yunni City (Shi State), and Yucheng (An State) , Aodian City (the country of Huoliximi)

In addition, there are some small city-states, but Zhizhi City does not have too much description. There are only some documents that introduce the surrounding small cities. After all, there are trade exchanges.

Kang Juguo was once very powerful, but that was around the time of Ban Chao.

Nowadays, Kangju has gradually declined. It can be considered that the distribution of resources has ended. In addition, it has some meaning of federalism. Therefore, in order to compete for more resources, internal fighting will never end.

It can be said that there are external and internal troubles, and it is gradually declining...

Although Zhang He is a fan of the Three Kingdoms, it does not mean that he knows the situation of these forces outside the Three Kingdoms, especially abroad.

Especially at the beginning of entering Kangju, all the information can only be investigated while attacking.

Thanks to his cheating, his learning ability is a bit too scary, otherwise he might not be able to do this.

I can only think of ways to find a translator bit by bit.

Just like before, find a Kangju person who understands Dawan dialect and use a Dawan person who understands Chinese to translate.

Later, when I arrived in the Kushan Empire, I was looking for a Kushan native who could speak Kangju dialect...

This is troublesome, but it is the only way to understand the other party's situation.

Whether there is a problem with the intelligence, or whether there is a problem with the translation, can only be judged based on intuition.

After all, there is no way to expect that the other party will learn Chinese in ten days and a half.

"General, we found some crops we haven't seen before in the warehouse..." Zhang Ren came over to report.

"Oh, let me go take a look!" Zhang He put down the pottery board in his hand and followed him to take a look. The main reason was that he really needed to rest.

Continuous gamification to learn has put a heavy load on the brain.

Gamified rest can alleviate the problem to a certain extent, but the feeling of boredom cannot be eliminated.

It's like studying test papers for three days, even elementary school addition and subtraction, it can make people sick.

I actually arrived at the warehouse and saw what Zhang Ren called the crops.

Zhang He looked carefully and had already made some guesses. After actual contact, he confirmed what he had in mind.

"The ones here are dates, which contain sugar, oil and protein. They are also used as food rations here and are more suitable for making desserts. The ones here are olives, which are used to squeeze olive oil." Zhang He said.

Rather, in the Mediterranean area, the main vegetable oil seems to be olive oil.

It’s not that peanut oil is not popular, but olive oil has a certain sacred status in ancient Greek religion.

In the bathing culture of the Romans, olive oil was part of health and beauty rituals.

The ancient Hebrews believed that a king must be coated in shining olive oil to be truly the right one.

I don’t know why Zhang He would subconsciously think of Jin Shining when he thought of this.

"From now on, we will have to deal with these two crops..." Zhang He reminded.

"I understand!" Zhang Ren responded.

Zhang He didn't bother to delve deeper into why he knew these two crops.
