The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Just when the city lord Ajalud was worried, the army led by Cheng Chuliang had arrived 150 miles to the north.

After going deep into the north of the Arab Empire, Cheng Chuliang realized that maybe it was not so bad. There are mountains everywhere here, and our army can be said to move slowly. But this also has its advantages. At least we don’t need to be on the edge of the desert. It is also a change of terrain for us. If we continue to stay in the desert, I am afraid everyone will collapse.

With Li Xiang's order, Cheng Chuliang dared to go deeper. Now their target is this city. Although the city is not very big, for Cheng Chuliang and his men, it is a restorative city. Once we have practiced well in this city, big cities will be no problem in the future.

We have been running around everywhere during this period, with nothing but deserts and Gobi deserts. The brothers have not fought for several months, and it is impossible to conduct adaptive training in such a place. If we were to conduct training, it would easily expose our position.

Although they want to fight against the army of the Arab Empire, you cannot expose your position. We can only fight according to our script. If we are surrounded by them, we will be in a desperate situation. Even if Cheng Chuliang and his men are confident in themselves, they dare not do that.

"Notify the team to continue moving forward. We will set up camp thirty miles away from the city. Also, tell the brothers to be careful. The number of refugees nearby will increase. They have been in the mountains before, but now they are about to leave. Don't expose yourself. After we take over the city, the brothers will rest for three days."

Cheng Chuliang did not say it explicitly, but he had to give his brothers some good advice. Take what Cheng Chuliang said just now, that is, allowing the brothers to rob for three days. Although robbery is a very bad thing, it is definitely the best catalyst for boosting morale, especially on the territory of other countries. No matter how you toss around, it will not have any impact on our country in the end.

The subordinates immediately cheered. Many of them had been holding back for half a year. They came here to fight, but ended up being tortured by the wind and sand in the desert for such a long time. If they were not given a chance to have some fun, these people would probably not be able to hold on any longer.

Some people are born for war. If you keep them away from the battlefield, they probably won't know how to survive. Cheng Chuliang has such a group of people under his command. They want to achieve great things and now they have finally found an opportunity. These people have also sharpened their swords. Tomorrow is our chance to achieve great things.

That night, the city lord finally gave the order with great pain, because standing inside the city wall, he could already hear the sound of people tearing down the wall outside. Countless refugees relied on their own hands to break off the soil on the wall piece by piece and then transported it to distant places.

It is hard to say whether these people's actions are right or wrong. If we look at it from a national perspective, there are still powerful enemies in the north, and destroying the walls of a city is clearly helping the enemy.

According to the laws of the Arab Empire, these people must be beheaded, but then again, they don't even have the chance to eat a full meal. Many people haven't eaten for several days. If they don't tear down the city wall, they may not even have the strength to do so. At that time, there is probably no other way except lying down and waiting to die. In desperation, the city lord also persuaded them several times, but the people outside the city didn't care. Instead, they seized the shortest time to destroy the city wall as much as possible. If they were lucky, once the city wall collapsed, these people outside the city could rush in.

The people inside don't care about our lives, so why should we care about theirs? In the face of life and death, no one should talk about being noble. Finding food to fill your stomach is the most important thing to do at this stage. As for other so-called spiritual things, don't mention them in front of hungry people. We don't believe them either.

As the noise outside grew louder and louder, the city lord had no choice but to give the order to shoot. Hundreds of archers on the city wall immediately drew their bows and arrows and began shooting at the crowd below.

Then screams were heard again, and some people found a few stones and wanted to use them to throw them onto the city wall. Although the city wall was built entirely of adobe, its height was more than ten meters. It was basically impossible to throw the stones up there with just your own strength.

"Don't run, no one should run. After tonight, we will all be out of strength. Even if we die here tonight, we must use our bodies to build a road. Apart from this city, we can't go anywhere else. If you run now, you will have no chance tomorrow. Even if we die, we must pave a road for our families."

When arrows were shot down from the city wall, many people prepared to flee in all directions, but a faint voice was heard, and those who were fleeing stopped at the same time. What he said was very correct. Even if we die now, there is still hope for our families, but if we run away, what we did before will be meaningless, and the people who died here just now will also be meaningless.

"Shoot those rioters, shoot the person who just spoke."

A young general on the city wall also heard it, and immediately shot a dozen arrows over. No one knew how many people died there, but the sound of hitting the city wall was heard again. They were standing on top of the city wall, and suddenly they felt a little unsafe under their feet. In the past, when they shot arrows, many people would flee in all directions. After all, they were just a group of refugees and had no so-called fighting will at all.

But now the situation seems to be different. These guys did not run away because of the bows and arrows. They still stayed in the original place and did their job honestly. Even if someone fell down around them, at most they would just scream. The rest of the people still used their bloody hands to cling to the city wall.

Just like what the man said just now, if you run now, wouldn't your blood be shed in vain? The dead piled up under the city wall, and soon they would be as high as the city wall. This is also a way to climb the city wall... (End of this chapter)
