I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 562: Slaves Return
"That's it for today then."

"We lost so many people in vain. We finally managed to capture this city. If we wait until tomorrow, the price will be even higher." Walker hesitated.

"Just this one battle today."

"We were all stunned by the Tang army's defensive strength, and the army's soldiers must have been the same."

"Can they capture the city with such a stunned combat capability?"

"And judging from the Tang army's defensive posture, the intelligence we received earlier might be wrong. They have far more than 100,000 troops."

"If you want to continue to lose troops and generals, it will only increase the losses."

"Then I'll let you handle this matter." Jack said directly.

"Back off."

"Re-plan the tactics."

"Come and attack again tomorrow."

When Walker heard that he was asked to take the blame, he agreed immediately.

Subsequently.

The horn of the Shihanna army's retreat sounded.

The attacking Shihanna army retreated quickly as if they had been pardoned.

On the city floor.

Looking at the retreating army of Shihan, Li Zheng sneered, "It seems that these foreigners are afraid of being killed, and perhaps they have guessed that the Tang Dynasty is deliberately hiding its weakness."

"If they really discovered it, will they attack tomorrow?" Li Ke's face changed.

What he was worried about was that the foreign tribes would withdraw their troops and stop attacking.

Li Zheng glanced at Li Ke and said with a smile: "If you really lose a lot of troops in the attack, and it's just the first battle, will you retreat?"

"will not."

"If we withdraw our troops after suffering such a heavy loss, we will be held accountable. It is better to die on the battlefield. Maybe we can conquer the enemy in one fell swoop." Li Ke replied immediately.

"Just as you said."

"These alien races are also facing the same situation at the moment."

"The emperors of these foreign races must have issued death orders. If they retreat, they will be severely punished. Although they suffered heavy losses today, the strong defense of our Tang Dynasty also caught them off guard."

"But they will not retreat from an isolated city no matter what, even if it takes too long to kill us."

“And I did this on purpose.”

"Use the isolated city to give them hope, but the tight defense within the isolated city happens to be their despair." Li Zheng sneered.

The foreign races do not understand the art of war, so naturally they have no idea what it means to lure the enemy deep into their territory, what it means to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out, and what it means to make a roundabout encirclement.

"It's their bad luck to run into our Tang Dynasty."

"And there is also an emperor who is good at leading troops to war." Li Ke said with emotion.

"Keep holding on."

“But after they attack tomorrow, we still have to give them some rewards, so that they have some hope of breaking the city and keep them hanging.” Li Zheng said with a smile.

"What about those wounded foreign soldiers on the city wall?" Li Ke asked.

"How to deal with it? Do you need me to teach you?" Li Zheng frowned, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Li Zheng understood immediately.

He immediately ordered the surrounding generals: "Keep shooting arrows, keep firing cannons, kill as many enemies as possible, and when the foreigners retreat, the soldiers will go out of the city and kill all the foreign wounded soldiers, leaving no one alive, and collect the bows and arrows at the same time."

"Yes."

There were echoes everywhere on the city wall.

The order was quickly passed to the towers on the other three sides.

The aliens retreated quickly.

Leaving behind a pile of wounded soldiers.

Wait until they have completely retreated.

The city gates on all four sides were opened.

Many Tang soldiers armed with weapons rushed out of the city, most of them were slave soldiers. They scattered in all directions and conducted a carpet search for the wounded soldiers of the foreign races, those pretending to be dead, and those seriously injured.

They simply raised their weapons and stabbed down, killing the wounded soldiers completely.

Hu Batu, the commander of the slave army, was also leading the team to clean up the battlefield with extreme seriousness.

He was once a brave general of the Turkic tribe. Now that he has surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, he has been entrusted with important tasks. "Hu Batu, it's me... I'm Gni."

"How do you serve the Tang Dynasty?"

As Hu Batu moved, a wounded soldier suddenly struggled to sit up and looked at him in disbelief.

"Gurney."

"Didn't you abandon us and run away? I didn't expect that you would become a dog of Shi Khan's country and be used as cannon fodder." Hu Batu took a closer look and said coldly.

"Why did you betray the royal family? Betray your people?"

"You actually worked for the Tang Kingdom. You will surely be punished by the wrath of the gods." The wounded soldier struggled and cursed at Hu Batu.

"hehe."

"I will incur the wrath of the gods."

"I betrayed my people."

Hu Batu smiled, with a sneer on his face: "These should be the ones who abandoned us and fled. You took your own families away and abandoned us who were fighting against the Tang Dynasty. You ran away freely, leaving us vulnerable to attack from both sides."

"What right do you runaways have to say?"

"Besides, I told you."

"Not only did I, Hu Batu, submit to the Tang Dynasty, but there were also 100,000 masters in the city who submitted to the Tang Dynasty willingly."

Hear this.

The wounded soldier had his eyes wide open with a look of horror, and seemed to have no idea of ​​the situation.

"After we were captured by the Tang Dynasty, they not only did not kill us, but gave us three meals a day and only required us to work every day. Moreover, the Tang Dynasty did not punish our families, but instead gave us pastures, livestock, and the status of true citizens of the Tang Dynasty."

"Why should we oppose the Tang Dynasty? The Tang Dynasty has given us more than the tribes before, and it has given us dignity."

"And I tell you."

"This time, we have 100,000 of our people fighting for the Tang Dynasty against the Shihana army. When the war is over, we can escape from slavery and become real Tang soldiers."

"so."

"Go to hell."

Hu Batu sneered, as if venting all the anger that had been accumulating for a long time, and slashed down fiercely with the long sword in his hand.

One knife down.

He directly killed this former fellow in front of him.

The camp has changed.

and.

Those who fled to the Shihan Kingdom and served the Shihan Kingdom were people who had abandoned their comrades, and Hu Batu would not show any mercy.

Bros."

"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has been kind to our family. If we were enemies of the Tang Dynasty, we would have been killed according to our tribe's method. However, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty did not do that. He has been kind to us and our people. Such a Tang Dynasty is worthy of our service."

"The old Turks are a thing of the past. The old Turks no longer exist."

"Now there is only the Tang Dynasty."

"Serve the Tang Dynasty without showing any mercy."

Hu Batu shouted loudly.

"Yes."

"Kill all the enemies."

Many slave soldiers shouted loudly, continuing to intensify the search and eliminate the remaining enemies.

On the city floor.

Hearing what Hu Batu said.

Li Zheng also noticed Hu Batu.

"This person is not bad." Li Zheng said.

"He used to be a fierce general of the Turks. He was originally very hostile to our Tang Dynasty. But after knowing that his family was safe and sound in our Tang Dynasty and that the Tang Dynasty was treating them with kindness, he changed and led his subordinates to obey the orders of our Tang Dynasty and cooperate with us fully."

"Many slaves from the three Turkic tribes were like this as well."

"I feel like returning home." Li Ke said with a smile.
