Guishan City was broken, and the Han soldiers outside the city cheered and swarmed in. The defenders in the city were not all Attic's best friends. Many of them were forced by Attic's power and had to go to the city to help. Now, seeing the turbulent crowds of the Han army, they have long since lost the support of the city wall and they have long since abandoned their knives and guns and fled everywhere. The entire siege battle was over after only half an hour, and the Han army suffered very few casualties.
Originally, Guishan City also had an inner city, which was where the King Dawan and the nobles lived, so the inner city was much stronger than the outer city. The inner city of Guishan is all made of bluestone, and the guards are also the most elite troops in Dawan.
It's just that Atik has just taken the throne only half a month, and he has not been able to fully control the situation in Dawan, and the whereabouts of Mozhiti, who was ousted from power, is still unknown. Therefore, whether it is Dawan nobles or those elite inner city guards, they will not sacrifice their lives for him.
When news came that the Han army had invaded Guishan City, some inner city guards quietly put down their weapons and fled. The action of fleeing quickly spread like a plague among the inner city guards. When Xu Huang led the crowd outside the inner city, there was no one on the head of the inner city, and the inner city of Guishan was destroyed without attack.
After entering the city, Xu Huang started a large-scale search overnight, focusing on the Dawan nobles and soldiers who followed Atike's rebellion. All of the nobles’ property was confiscated, part of it was used as military supplies, and the other part was distributed to the people in the city.
In order to make a quick battle, the trebuchets of the Han army dealt a devastating blow to Guishan City. The houses of the people in the city were smashed to pieces, and there were many casualties. The Han army's crusade against Dawan was holding high the banner of counter-insurgency. Naturally, these innocent people could not be ignored, otherwise it would be morally untenable. Of course, Xu Huang would not be generous enough to use Han people's money to treat these Dawan people. He could only use the wool on the sheep, and the Dawan nobles would pay for it.
For these Dawan nobles, Xu Huang carried out a cruel and thorough suppression. This was specifically explained by Liu Xin before leaving. He wanted to kill a hundred people, let the surrounding countries that are eager to move and feel less comfortable, and oppose the fate of the man .
The execution was carried out outside Guishan City. There were more than 20,000 soldiers in Dawan who were arrested, and they were forced to dig a huge pit. The nobles in Dawan were detained in rows to the side of the pit, regardless of men, women, and children, even the servants. The Han army knife and axe hand mechanically swung the steel knife in his hand, and the heads rolled down one by one, and the headless body was directly pushed into the pit. Under the hazy moonlight, the pit was already a bright red, and the air was filled with a nauseating smell of blood, and the scene was terrifying.
The captured Dawan soldiers shuddered and watched with stunned eyes at the unattainable nobles who used to be slaughtered like pigs and dogs, quietly waiting for the same fate to fall on their heads, but they were born. Not a trace of courage to resist. Whether it was the just-concluded Guishan City offensive and defensive battle, or this bloody massacre, they had already shocked them.
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly: "Listen, our Majesty the Emperor of Han has a good virtuous life. Hereby pardon your capital crimes and fined you for two years of labor!"
The soldiers escaped, unable to react for a while, and the audience was silent.
"Could it be that you are not willing to accept hard labor and would rather die! Hmph, that is Pang Mou underestimating you! Okay, Pang Mou will give you a chance!" It turned out that the person who spoke was Pound, and he waved his sword. He shouted sharply, "If you are not convinced, you can stand up. As long as you can defeat Pang Mou's knife, Pang Mou will let you go and never break your words!"
Although two years of hard labor can temporarily save their lives, who knows if the Han army will abuse them, perhaps their fate will be even more miserable. However, many of these soldiers had fought against the Han army a few years ago, and they knew how powerful the Han army was. They lowered their heads and did not dare to face Pound. Of course, some were not afraid of death. A big man stood up and said in blunt Chinese: "I'll fight you!"
Now, from the Western Regions to Daqin, doing business is always inseparable from the products from Dahan. There are many people who can speak Chinese. It has almost become a fashion. It is not unusual for this person to speak Chinese. What is strange is that he wants to challenge with his bare hands. Pound, but the young soldiers who were captured were full of excitement and anticipation. Because the person who stood up was the first warrior recognized by Dawan, called Tie Suhua, who was able to give birth to tigers and leopards, and had never encountered an opponent in Dawan.
Originally, Pound had asked him to carry two weapon racks aside, including knives, guns, swords, and even iron bars and wooden sticks, which they could choose. But this person didn't choose any weapon, and wanted to fight Pound empty-handed.
Upon seeing this, Pound yelled "Good job!", he threw the knife to the soldiers behind him, and greeted him with his fists. If Liu Xin is called second in the world, no one would dare to call first. And Liu Xin would often give pointers to the soldiers in the army. Like everyone else, Pound also practiced in his spare time, but he had few opportunities for actual combat. Today I want to see how strong he is.
Two men who looked like iron towers fought together in one place. As soon as he fought, Pound felt his arms numb, and he gave a secret praise of great strength, and he had already raised twelve minutes of caution. Tie Suhua was also secretly surprised over there. He already felt that Pound was the most powerful opponent he had ever encountered.
During the round up today, Tie Suhua defeated three Han soldiers. He was about to escape, but he was surrounded by a large group of people. Hundreds of crossbow arrows were aimed at him with cold light. Really unwilling.
Now, since Pound had given him this opportunity, he had to do a good job, couldn't help but yell, and drew away again and rushed over. Tie Suhua hadn't learned any martial arts, only relying on brute force. He waved his arms like two small tree stumps like a windmill, and slammed them straight up and down at Pound. As long as he was hit by him, it would be unbearable for your steel and iron.
And Pound had already calculated after the first temptation. He didn't fight face-to-face with him. He just wandered around looking for opportunities with his flexible posture.
Gradually more than twenty rounds passed. Although Tie Suhua's fists danced vigorously, he still couldn't touch Pound a little bit. He couldn't help but feel anxious, but his hands slowed down. Seeing that the time had come, Pound flicked a fist to Tie Suhua's face. Taking advantage of Tie Suhua's evasive effort, he had flashed behind Tie Suhua and slapped Tie Suhua's heart with a palm. .
Tie Suhua yelled, spouted a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground. Before Tie Suhua got up from the ground completely, Pound had already grabbed a step forward and punched again, hitting Tie Suhua's temple. Hearing a muffled sound, Tie Suhua flew out sideways and slammed into the ruins of the city wall, only to breathe out and not to inhale.
Pound wiped the dust off his body, looked around at the frightened prisoners, and shouted sharply: "Who else will fight Pang Mou!"
Tie Suhua usually likes to show off his strength in the army. He often challenged more than a dozen or even dozens of his comrades with one person, but he still returned in a big victory. Today, he was beaten to death with bare hands by a Han general. Where do these prisoners dare to stand up again, all of them dare not even out of the air.
Pound laughed and said: "Since you dare not fight with Pang Mou, then do hard labor honestly! Whoever dares to rape and ski, that is your fate."
The direction of his finger was the big pit dug by these prisoners. At the bottom of the pit lay many corpses with different heads.
Seeing that no one dared to speak, Pound raised his foot, kicked Tie Suhua's body into the air, traversed a beautiful arc, and fell accurately into the pit. Then he announced: "Two pieces Thing. First, fill up this big hole. Second, take off the outer wall of Guishan City. If you don't do it well before dawn, you just wait for punishment!"
I don't know who reacted first, and rushed to the big pit like crazy. Without tools, he grabbed it with his hands and pushed a handful of dirt into the pit with his shoulders. Immediately, the other prisoners of war came back to their senses and rushed up in a hurry...
At dawn, Liu Xin led a team to Guishan City. At this time, Guishan City had completely changed. The once majestic outer city was completely gone, replaced by a ruin. Tens of thousands of Dawan prisoners of war were carrying thick wooden boards and slapped the ground vigorously, flattening and compacting the ground, including the big pit that buried almost the entire Dawan noble class, and there was no trace of it.
More than 200,000 Han troops lined up in a neat line and passed by the prisoners of war. The prisoners were all terrified, but no one dared to stop their work. It was not far from dawn. If the mission is not completed, who knows what will happen. Such punishment, they didn't even have the time to be afraid.
Knowing the battle, Liu Xin sighed: "I don't like killing, but not killing is not enough to deter Xiao Xiao. I only hope that God can understand my difficulties."
Xu Huang arched his hands and said: "According to your majesty's will, the outer city of Guishan City has been demolished. The people were moved overnight to build houses 50 miles west of Guishan, but they were not allowed to set up the city. The entire inner city has now been completely transformed. I left the army station of my big man and stood on the top of the city and looked at it. There is no one in the city for dozens of miles. No army can hide. Your Majesty can rest assured that he will march west."
Liu Xin nodded and said: "People have infinite power to survive when they are about to die. I can't imagine that more than 20,000 prisoners of war can complete such a huge project in a single night, and it is time for them to rest and rest."
Xu Huang arched his hands and said, "Your Majesty meant to let them go?"
Liu Xin shook his head and said, "This kind of free labor, don’t use it for nothing. What do you let them do? But don’t make it too difficult for them. Let them eat well, and then go on. From Uzbe to Partia’s In the Great Han Concession, they will build all such a avenue. When will it be repaired and when will they be released."
