Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The soldiers were constantly 'cleaning up' the wounded Tartanil soldiers. Needless to say, the scene must have been very cruel.

    Fortunately, the imperial soldiers are all genetic people who came to this time and space through cultivation, so if they are allowed to do this, these Chinese genetic soldiers will not find any discomfort.

    Even if there are some genetic people with independent intelligent personalities in the team, they will not resist such an order.

    Although Aziz and the others understood the current situation and some of the reasons why Commander Zhang Xiao did this, they still could not watch what happened.

    Of course, it¡¯s not okay to look at it with your eyes open, so why not not look at it?

    At this time, Aziz and others cannot be so stupid that they insist on Zhang Xiao stopping to solve some 'trouble'.

    After all, Zhang Xiao had his own reasons. It was impossible to capture and take away the wounded soldiers of the Tartanils.

    At the same time, we can¡¯t just let them leave like this.

    ¡°Besides, even if we let them go, how far can these wounded soldiers go?

    ¡°Obviously, even if these wounded soldiers were not massacred by the Imperial Army, they would still die in the desert.

    Under the five-stage shooting tactics of the imperial infantry, it is basically impossible for any of these Tartanil cavalry to escape easily. Basically, they either die on the spot or are hit and injured and lose their combat effectiveness.

    It can be said that the more than two thousand cavalrymen of the Tartanians were completely destroyed in this battle.

    On the other side, several officers selected several prisoners and began to interrogate these prisoners.

    Although the prisoners need to be dealt with without leaving any survivors, Zhang Xiao also needs to get some useful information from these people before dealing with them.

    Aziz and the others can certainly provide some intelligence information, but it has been almost a month since these people left Cuman.

    During the period of the mission to the Imperial Concession in Cairo, some situations in Cuman will definitely change, and Aziz and the others cannot fully control them.

    This sudden attack is an obvious omen.  I imagine that things like this will continue to happen in the future.

    It can be said that to some extent, the Imperial Army still has a slight disadvantage.

    So, in order to avoid putting our own side into a greater disadvantage, Kuman needs to grasp some information in time.

    Although Zhang Xiao is young, he is not stupid.

    Soon, the officers responsible for interrogating the selected prisoners obtained some very useful information from the prisoners.

    "My lord, the prisoners said that they are a vassal tribe of the Tartanils. They belong to the Kurds. This time they attacked us. In fact, it was the Tartanils who came to target us."

    After listening to the report from his subordinates, Zhang Xiao¡¯s expression slowly became grim.

    "In other words, the Tartanians are actually coming for our Song Empire?"

    The Chinese officer standing in front of Zhang Xiao nodded: "Yes, sir, we can think so based on the prisoner's confession."

    Zhang Xiao squinted his eyes and his mind started to spin.

    According to the reports of his subordinates, it is not difficult to guess that the Tartanians, one of the three major tribes, do not want the Song Empire to enter Cuman.

    Now that the other party has reacted like this, it can be said that it has declared war on the Song Empire.

    You must know that the Ottomans gave up the ownership of Cuman to the Song Empire.  The Song Empire can be said to be the legitimate ruler of the Cuman region.

    But now, the Tartanians living here are unwilling to live here, and they simply don¡¯t want the empire to send troops to take over the place smoothly.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    It seems like it¡¯s important not to let these people know how powerful it is.  They thought the empire was just so easy to bully.

    "Did you ask anything else?"

    The officer quickly said: "Replying to your words, the prisoners also revealed that the small and medium-sized tribes in Cuman have been integrated by the three major tribes. Except for the Bedouin who have not yet been conquered, there are no others.  Small and medium-sized tribes can now be separated from the three major tribes."

    "Oh, unexpectedly, the three major tribes moved quite quickly.

    Now all the small and medium-sized tribes have been integrated.

    So.  These three major tribes who want to rule Cuman by force are probably going to fight for hegemony here.

    It seems that I came at the wrong time. If I had known earlier, I would have asked the team to move slower and wait until the three majorAfter the tribe is almost done fighting, he can lead his army to join in.

    By then, the three major tribes must have suffered considerable losses due to fighting with each other.

    Then, it will be relatively easy and relaxed for me to deal with the three major tribes at that time.

    But now it¡¯s different. Because of the arrival of the imperial army, the three major tribes will definitely put aside some of their prejudices temporarily and turn around to deal with the empire together.

    After all, it is not that there are smart people among the three major tribes.

    No matter which of the three major tribes wants to rule Cuman, they must face the empire.

    After all, the empire has the legal right to rule Cuman, and this cannot be changed.

    Moreover, the three major tribes have not yet decided the winner, and they are not the real owners of Cuman.

    ???????????????? Then, only after the army that the empire came to receive has been dealt with, can the three major tribes focus all their energy and military strength on the struggle for hegemony.

    Who made the emperor a stumbling block to their desire to unify Cuman?

    For any of the three major tribes, the empire is a trouble that needs to be solved.

    Under this premise, it is not certain that the three major tribes will temporarily cooperate.

    Zhang Xiao quickly ran through these questions in his mind.

    It seems that it is impossible for me to successfully receive Kuman.

    Today¡¯s sneak attack has told me that if the empire wants to formally accept Cuman, it must use force.

    But what does this matter?

    The empire will not be afraid of war!

    ¡°If it were more than three years ago, I would not have dared to say this, but now, Zhang Xiao is still very confident.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Outside of the combat effectiveness of the Arabs here in Cuman, it is just the infantry under his command, with advanced and sophisticated weapons, Zhang Xiao does not have to worry about any upcoming troubles and dangers.

    ¡°If we were in the same era of hot weapons, Zhang Xiao would certainly not think so.

    However, in this time and space, we are still in an era where cold weapons are rampant.

    Especially in Cuman, a desert where Arabs live.  It is simply a joke for the other party to defeat him with cold weapons.

    You must know that the muskets of the Imperial Army are more than a hundred years ahead of the muskets of this era. Although they are all relatively ancient muskets, the gap is not small.

    It is combined with the Napoleonic era¡¯s ¡®queue to shoot¡¯ queue and the five-stage shooting strategy.

    So, Zhang Xiao is confident that he can use force to declare the existence of the empire in Cuman.

    "Continue the interrogation. I want to know more detailed information. You can use some extraordinary means. As for the process, I don't want to pay attention to it. I only want the result. "

    Zhang Xiao¡¯s words doomed the miserable fate of the prisoners who were interrogated.

    "Compared to those companions who were killed by bayonets, these people were much unlucky.

    No matter what era or time and space it is, as a prisoner being interrogated, his experience cannot be that good.  The methods they have to face are often very cruel and bloody.

    Zhang Xiao didn¡¯t care at all about this.

    As he said, he doesn¡¯t care about the process, as long as he can get a result that satisfies him.

    Besides.  These prisoners being interrogated were originally enemies.

    So, why should he pity these enemies?

    Although they were pitiful when they were interrogated, they were not long ago.  But he suddenly attacked me with great force.

    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the Imperial Army was different, then it would be people like myself who were in misery right now.

    Therefore, it is impossible for Zhang Xiaocai to have the so-called benevolence of a woman to sympathize with the captives.

    "My subordinates reported to me just now. The ones who attacked us were Kurds." The subordinate who reported to Zhang Xiao took the order and left to continue interrogating the prisoners.  Zhang Xiao came to Aziz and the others.  He revealed a little bit of the information reported to him by his subordinates.

    ¡°It¡¯s the Kurds!¡±

    "It turns out it's them, these guys are the lackeys of the Tartanians!"

    "That's right. It's not surprising if they are Kurds. They are vassals of the Tatanir people."

    After listening to Zhang Xiao¡¯s message, Aziz and the others showed expressions of sudden realization.

    I thought they were the Tartanir cavalry, but they turned out to be the vassal Kurds under their command.

      However, this is no different from the direct line cavalry of the Tartanians. After all, the lackeys and their masters are the same, right?

    "Why did they appear here? If I remember correctly, not far ahead is the oasis of our Bajir tribe."

    Aziz quickly came to his senses and said to Zhang Xiao with an anxious look on his face.

    Zhang Xiao shook his head and responded: "My people haven't asked this yet."

    "General, please make sure to clarify this matter. This is very important. Because I am very worried that maybe the Tatanir people are attacking the Bagir tribe" Aziz paused here and did not continue.  He went on, but even if he didn't go on, Zhang Xiao could still make a rough guess.

    Yes, according to Aziz, if you go a little further, you will find the oasis controlled by the Bajir tribe.

    However, there was actually a cavalry attack by the vassal Kurds under the Tatanir so close to the oasis controlled by the Bajir tribe. Isn't there something wrong with this?

    And, the problem is not small.

    ??????? Don¡¯t the Bagir tribe know about this?

    Just like this, allowing the Kurdish cavalry to come and go freely within their own territory?

    Or should we say that the Bagir tribe has already encountered unexpected events and attacks?

    It was this last point that Aziz was worried about.

    ¡°Let¡¯s go, I¡¯ll take you there, and you can ask the prisoners personally.¡±

    Seeing that Aziz was really worried, Zhang Xiao tilted his head to indicate to him, and then rode his horse to lead Aziz to the place where the prisoners were being interrogated.  (To be continued)
