It took a day and a night to finally raid the entire city.

Cheng Chuliang also has more than a thousand young and strong laborers. Some of these people are Arabs, and some are people conquered by the Arab Empire. They are all porters under Cheng Chuliang. They almost vomited their stomachs. This is considered to be from the city. Find something valuable.

"Report to the general, the lighter ones are almost there. There are more than 700 boxes in total. I heard that the remaining items that you were looking for are not needed. The main reason is that they can't be taken out, and we don't have enough transportation. Team, if they all move out, a lot of effort will be wasted.”

A lieutenant colonel counted these things for a long time, and finally finished counting them. The total amount was equivalent to about 800,000 yuan.

Although this city is not big, the valuable things in the city are now gathered here. Some belong to the Arab court, some belong to the local government, and some belong to ordinary people. Therefore, even though this city is relatively poor, it is not worth taking out. Less valuable stuff.

In addition, there are more than 3,000 slaves. These people can still work. As for those who are disabled and unable to work, Cheng Chuliang has no time to gather them and directly drives those people to the south. You continue to be refugees. It is the greatest contribution to our Datang Dynasty.

"Where are the people delivering supplies?"

Although not much gunpowder was lost in this battle, according to Li Xiang's plan, a supply team will be sent out every five days. Their task is to quickly supply the troops on the front line. Even if the people on the front line don't need it, then It has to be sent, in case it is needed, it is much better than wasting it.

According to Li Xiang, if you have enough gunpowder and conditions permit, just find a place to bury it nearby and dig it out when it is used. If not, just burn it with a fire. Anyway, this thing It's plentiful for us, but if you don't use it on the battlefield, it will be a huge loss.

Everyone felt that Li Xiang's plan was too wasteful, but they also understood that this was His Highness's love for all the frontline soldiers. If we still can't win the battle, it would be a bit sorry for His Highness, and for the frontline soldiers For these soldiers, His Highness has never been afraid of spending money on them.

Take the supplies being delivered now, there are a lot of dried vegetables, all of which were exchanged by Li Xiang from the system. They are not available on the market at all, but all the soldiers understand one thing, that is this kind of Things are very expensive, otherwise you can still eat vegetables in such a desert area, don't dream about it.

"We should be at our current location tomorrow afternoon."

Another subordinate officer under his command calculated the time. As long as there was no desert storm on the road, then the time should not be wrong. If there was a storm, the time would probably be lost. Maybe they would still have a chance. It will be blown away. Don’t underestimate the storm in the desert.

"Leave two hundred people to watch them and wait in place. When the supply team arrives, they will exchange supplies with the supply team and let the supply team take them back."

Cheng Chuliang thought for a while and said, if all 200 people are equipped with continuous furnaces, it should be no problem to watch these 3,000 people. Put all these people in a circle, half of them will watch them, and half of them will rest. , if anyone dares to act rashly, they will kill everyone in their group immediately, so that other Arabs can help watch.

This kind of policy is already practiced by the Tang army. After all, after every war, the number of prisoners they find is not a small number. If such a method is not adopted, there is no telling how big a fuss these prisoners will make. It's a serious matter, so you have to be ruthless, and you have to act quickly.

"Get up and go to the open space in the east of the city. The edges have been circled. If anyone dares to take a step out, they will be killed immediately."

The young and middle-aged people scattered all over the place immediately heard this voice. There were more than thirty translators in the Tang army. They all used their strength to let the more than 3,900 people pass. Those who could not get up, You must have fainted due to lack of water. The Tang Dynasty's army didn't talk nonsense to you and just stabbed you.

Fainting is not a crime, but we don't have the time to distinguish it. If you want to blame it, I blame you for not persisting. I have made it very clear just now. I will find you a place to rest, but if you don't obey, then this life Just because you disobey me.

The open space in the east of the city is pretty good, and there are some green plants around it. It turned out to be an oasis. If it weren't for these green plants, I'm afraid I would be sunburned to death if I stayed here for a day. It's already afternoon. At five o'clock, the sun in the sky is no longer so strong.

There is actually a bush in the south of the city. We can put people there, but the height of the bush is a bit high, which is not conducive to our observation, so it is better to put them here. Safety is the top priority in everything. If If these people want to cause trouble, the serial crossbows we carry will not be able to deal with you.

These young men were unwilling to do so. They were so tired that they had no strength at all. In the city, they had to move all kinds of things without drinking any water. They had almost exhausted their physical strength. Now there were ten people in a group, and their right arms were all tied up. Even if you didn't want to move, you had to follow them honestly, otherwise, the people in the team would kill you.

This happened just now. One person was weak, and they didn't want to drag him, so they beat him to death with punches and kicks. They reported to the Tang army that this guy died suddenly for no reason.

The Tang army didn't bother to care about such things. As long as you delayed the progress of the team, you didn't have to keep your life. A soldier went up and made up a knife, and waved his hand to let the other nine people move forward. If there were other idle people, they would make up for them immediately.

It took an hour for these thousands of people to arrive in the west of the city. The sun had completely set and the air was much cooler. (End of this chapter)
