Sweep the World

Chapter 1089: : The first fire

The wall of Peshawar is lost, will Ma Bin and others tremble? That doesn't exist.

Refer to the envoys of the Han Dynasty. Even when the Han Dynasty was weak in the early days, there has never been an example of losing a teacher and humiliating the country!

It was under hard and hard conditions, even if someone added a sword and axe to him, could it be that death was like home and chose the most heroic method of death.

There are precedents in the Han Empire today. During a certain period of time, the Han Tribe was very weak. The envoy Murong Yan was humiliated, and the chief and deputy envoys and even the entourages all chose to fight and die.

Ma Bin is not an angel representing the Son of Heaven, nor can it even be said to represent the country. What he represents is only the shogunate of the Western Campaign, but he knows that those are only his own, and Jidara will not be so careful.

Zhu Xia's messengers might be greedy for life and fear of death when they concern themselves, but once it is at the national level, no matter how greedy for life and fear of death, they will have the greatest courage, so that they will not be stinking for thousands of years.

Eat, eat.

It's time to drink, drink.

It's time to do it... but I can't do it now.

Sun Bo knew the priorities even when he was anxious, but he just had a hand addiction. Just touch it before picking up the food, this is a little bit so.

"They..." Luhmaru Jidu asked, "What are they doing?"

The captain of the guard replied: "Eat and drink, no women's clothing."

"Oh..." Luhmaru Yudo has no psychological burden for sending his concubine to him, let alone to the Han Chinese who can save lives. In the past, it was not given to ministers or foreign guests. ……, different from others."

In the previous example, those people basically started picking up their clothes with their arms around them, and then started to sensation no matter how many people there were around them.

Luhmaru Jiduo didn't know if it was the Han people's reservedness or the nervousness to fight at any time. He didn't want to make this guess either, and asked: "How about outside the city, how about inside the city."

The Sassanid troops outside the city reinforce the walls one after another. More than 20,000 Sasanian soldiers have participated in the battle on the four walls.

The soldiers and civilians of Peshawar in the city are also constantly gathering and throwing themselves into the battlefield. In addition, under the command and appeal of some civilian officials such as the Minister of State Zambutt Tanawa, they have begun to clean up flammable debris.

"There is a very strange phenomenon..." The captain of the guard did not know whether his judgment was reliable, he hesitated: "The Persians seem to be laying out the outer front?"

Luhmaru Jiduo heard the spirit, and asked: "Arrange the battle line?"

"A large number of things are being placed." The captain of the guard could not see clearly, but he had a guess: "Is the army of King Qin arrived, or the Han army?"

Today is the second day of the offensive and defensive battle in Peshawar. Given the urinary nature of the various tribes of Jidoro, it will take at least half a month to gather the troops, and it will take another seven or eight days on the road, the fastest. It will take around twenty days to reinforce Peshawar.

"It's the Han army." Luhmaru Jiduo was delighted at first, and then worried: "Will the Han...will attack immediately? Maybe they will wait until we can't support it before launching an attack!"

Why are they the lord of a country? Luhmaru Jiduo thinks about it in another way, thinking that if he is absolutely capable of doing it, how else can he reap the greatest gratitude of the rescued?

However, the current situation is very special. The Sassanid army did not intend to occupy Peshawar at all, but wanted to plunge the entire city into a sea of ​​flames!

"You..." Luhmaru looked at the captain of the guard with expectation, and said: "Go to see the Han ambassador again, no matter what method you use, please order the Han army to attack immediately."

The captain of the guard saluted to leave but was stopped.

"Wait!" Luhmaru said after thinking about it, "Go to the treasure house and carry five boxes of gold coins."

The captain of the guard nodded heavily.

"Wait!" Luhmaru Jidu gritted his teeth and said with difficulty: "Eight boxes of gold coins, and another box of gems..." After speaking, he breathed violently.

One box of gold coins is eight hundred, and eight boxes of gold coins are six thousand four hundred.

The value of a box of gems is a bit difficult to say. It depends on when it is sold. When the market is the best, it should be able to sell about 3,000 gold coins.

Sending Duoruo a year’s tax revenue should be about 60,000 gold coins. The problem is that taxes must also be paid. If you spend on royal family expenses, raising the army, national construction, etc., 60,000 gold coins can be left. Thousands are considered too much.

After Luhmaru sent more to the top, it took four years for him to get two boxes of gold coins for his personal post money. The total amount was only 1,600 gold coins.

In the treasure house of the palace, there are 27 boxes containing gold coins and seven boxes containing precious stones. The rest of the stuff should be worth about 140,000 gold coins, but this is the accumulation of the royal family in the past 100 years!

In many cases, Luhmaru Jiduo would be proud rather than ashamed because of the impoverishment of the royal family, which means that every lord of the country at least did not expropriate the subjects under his rule. He also knew that the lives of the past dynasties were not extravagant, and that money must be used to build the country, otherwise it would not be so little savings.

It must be said that the several lordships of the royal family are indeed good, especially for the soldiers and civilians of Peshawar. Only when the invasion of another country happened, the soldiers and civilians of Peshawar united and resisted.

If there are more royal assholes, the army will naturally be ordered to resist, but even if the civilians are forced to do their best, there will be really no unity.

At this moment, the organized soldiers and civilians of Peshawar are in a mood of desperation and are constantly launching an assault.

They have been told that the Persians will set the city on fire, and the Persians have rejected the king's request for surrender.

Some people are saying that someone surrendered to the Sassanid army, but was killed immediately.

Those spreading Sasanian soldiers who did not accept the surrender were true and false. They were indeed witnessed by someone with their own eyes, and most of them were arranged and entrusted.

The enemy wants to be set on fire and is unwilling to accept surrender? Even the soldiers and civilians of Peshawar who didn't want to work hard before, after learning of this situation, they should understand the reason not to work hard.

No matter how angry and fearful they are, they don't want their family members to be burned to death. Although they are very likely to die if they rush up, but they really can't do it hard.

The soldiers and civilians of Peshawar launched an assault one after another, looking very magnificent, but they actually scared the Sassanid army a bit.

"Hold it up! Hold it up!"

"Archery, grass mud horse, archery quickly!"

"Can't stand it! Can't stand it!"

"The arrows are going to run out, come up quickly!"

The Sassanid soldiers in the city have been submerged by Peshawar soldiers and civilians, and the battle began to fight for the walkway of the city wall.

The first group of Peshawar soldiers and civilians to launch a counterattack carried kerosene. They smashed the altars, pots, and pots at the siege equipment that they could approach, and the torches were thrown in the past. There was really no other way but to pounce on it and use the fire fold to make some, and then became a fire man because of the kerosene on the clothes.

The battlefield was full of fireballs, the enemy and us were fighting, and some unlucky people were squeezed into the fire under the crowd, some ran out, and some were buried in the fire.

Those who ran out, they hugged someone when they saw someone in a state of extreme horror. If they hugged the enemy, they could die together. If they hugged their own people, they would die with them.

As the first group of Peshawar soldiers and civilians to counterattack, according to the original plan, they would be able to retreat after burning or destroying Sassan’s siege equipment.

While they were waiting for the order to retreat, a large group of people rushed up hysterically and roared.

The retreat order has not come yet, but the newcomer has informed the Persians that the city will be set on fire, and that there will be no retreat. Either all will die here, or the Persians will be repelled, otherwise don’t even think about it. There is a way to survive.

Retreat is a solemn notice of death. It is not that Peshawar soldiers and civilians escaped by themselves. They were warned by a wave of arrows by the supervising team when they ran to the residential area. If they continued to escape, they would be shot on the spot. He was not shot to death, but he was arrested after passing, found a conspicuous place, and chopped off his head.

If you rushed forward without repelling the Persians, don’t think that your survival is fully proved by cruel military methods, unless you are scared to be really incapable of thinking, otherwise whoever knows that there is no doubt that they will die, they are generally willing to die in the hands of the enemy. , Not in their own hands.

Dospals Canaandina kept frowning watching the battle on the city wall, and said: "They know about our preparation for fire oil."

Peshawar’s counterattack was so resolute and hysterical, it would definitely not be unreasonable, and Peshawar’s military and civilian counterattacks were a bit messy, unlike a planned and orderly counterattack.

"They are fighting back." Dospars Canaandina is a Sassanian general who has been fighting for a long time. He actually knows what choice he should make when facing such a situation: "It's a pity..."

In the current situation, the best choice for offense and defense is actually to retreat and lay down traps to induce the defenders to go out of the city to fight. If they can't be wiped out, they will continue to avoid their edge, waiting for the defensive force to decrease.

The above choice is the best, and at the same time it can avoid huge casualties. Dospals Canaandina didn't have a choice at all.

"The Han army will soon join the battlefield..." Dospals Canaandina ordered: "Increase troops, and then go to two thousand people on each wall! The west wall...put into the undead army!"

There are more than 23,000 soldiers on this side of the Sassanid army, and an additional 2,000 troops on each wall will reach 31,000.

In fact, the walls of Peshawar really cannot accommodate so many soldiers. At present, most of the Sasanian soldiers are actually outside the city. Most soldiers are in a state of ineffective combat effectiveness.

There should be only about 12,000 Sasanian soldiers fighting the Peshawar garrison on the front line. They are four to five thousand more than the Peshawar garrison. Some sections of the city wall are missing.

When the two armies are fighting, one can fight but the morale is average, and the other may not be so capable but has desperate brutality. If there is no one-sided battle, the casualties on both sides will be very large.

From the first group of soldiers and civilians in Peshawar to counterattack, in the past hour or so, more than four thousand people on both sides have fallen on the battlefield and become a corpse, and more people have been injured.

This kind of combat situation can be regarded as very tragic, but the battle situation is still in a stalemate.

Among the four thousand people who fell, Sassan’s side was estimated to be seven or eight hundred, and the rest were soldiers and civilians in Peshawar.

It is now that the Sassanid army has the advantage of relying on the city wall; Peshawar soldiers and civilians climb the city from the inside, but there are some conveniences of aisles, but it is impossible for the Sassanid army to let go of the aisles, and even use the fixed ascending passages to kill Baisha in large numbers. Tile army and civilians.

The tragic confrontation continued, and as time passed, the severity of the tragic confrontation increased again and again.

"Persevere!" Bu Erzan yelled, "They have already started dating women!"

It is not a scene that is inappropriate for children. It is that a large number of women have appeared among the soldiers and civilians of Peshawar, holding simple weapons, even rushing up empty-handed.

In fact, the vast majority of women nowadays really don't really have any good looks. Most of them have dark skin and rough skin. What looks good is those who do not need to participate in labor, are not exposed to the wind and sun every day at home, and are tired, learn some women's skills (such as dressing), cultivate temperament, and so on.

It's not good-looking. Sassanian soldiers have the sentiment of pitying and cherishing jade. Seeing a dark, thin, fat...Anyway, it has nothing to do with the beauty of women. Usually, they wield their weapons without recognizing men and women.

Standing by the window holding a telescope to watch the progress of the war, Zhou Jian had already told Paoze about the dispatch of female militiamen in Peshawar. He saw heavy casualties and said, "It seems that they have not been properly trained.

At present, it is known that only the Han empire in the world trained even women when training the people. However, the Han empire was not intended to send women to the battlefield. It was because of the five wild tragedies that took place and used military skills against women. train.

"The Persians are dividing their troops to the northeast~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Zhou Bian discovered that this situation was actually a shock: "Our army should be approaching! "

Outside the city, some catapults that had not had time to be sent into the city were already installed by Sassanid soldiers, and pots of black oil were also sent up.

The original consideration of the Sassanian army was to advance enough distance inside and outside the city, and then launch clay pots filled with black oil into residential areas.

They had indeed discovered the Han army. At least 10,000 cavalry soldiers suddenly appeared from the mountains in the northeast, forcing them to change their combat plans.

"put!"

The hanging knife was hit by a sledgehammer, and the pendulum of the catapult slammed forward, and the clay pot with burning cloth strips was thrown into the sky.

At the location of the palace in Peshawar, the bell was once again struck, and it struck very quickly, which gave people a bad feeling.

The first clay pot was thrown into Peshawar City, about 120 meters inward from the city wall. When it fell, it hit Peshawar soldiers and civilians who were charging forward. The next moment was a sudden "Boom!!" !" The fire engulfed a large group of people in an instant...
