Outside Bolam City.
Within the main tent where Xia Xia's army was stationed, Ma Yuan was looking at a map of Bolam City. Bolang City was a very sturdy city. It would not be easy to attack. However, Ma Yuan could only wait for news from Lai Ji in order to attack this city. After all, Lai Ji had personally entered the city.
As Ma Yuan waited, the tent flap was lifted, and a soldier hurriedly entered. After standing still, the soldier cupped his fists and bowed, "General, I have news for you."
"Bring it up!"
Ma Yuan ordered.
At this moment, Ma Yuan felt quite excited and expectant.
He wondered how Lai Ji was doing.
Ma Yuan took the letter and quickly browsed through it. When he saw the news in the letter, a bright smile appeared on his face. This was because Lai Ji's operation in the city had been successful, and he had taken down Bolam's General Tibit. Now, Ma Yuan only needed to gather his troops to attack the city again and create an opportunity for Tibit.
Ma Yuan immediately gave the order to gather his troops. The soldiers gathered and got into formation before heading towards Bolam City. When they arrived outside Bolam City, Ma Yuan did not ask anyone to call for help, nor did he personally call for help. Instead, he directly gave the order to bombard the city.
One after another, the mortars aimed at the city gate tower and continued to bombard the city. While the mortars were suppressing the soldiers of Bolaen, Ma Yuan mobilized 30,000 elites and went straight to the city of Bolaen.
As the army attacked, Kass faced immense pressure.
Kass continuously gathered his troops and formed a formation below the city gate tower. Tibit's army was also there.
The soldiers on the city gate tower quickly defended.
However, the cannonballs would occasionally fall, causing the soldiers on the city gate tower to face immense pressure. Under the constant bombardment, some of Xia Xia's soldiers started to climb up the city gate tower. However, Kass's defenses were even stronger. Even if Xia Xia's soldiers climbed up the city gate tower, they would be beaten down in the blink of an eye.
Tibit was below the city gate tower. The wound on his butt was still there, but he had recovered quite a bit. After all, the soldiers were not too harsh on him. Beside Tibit was Meng Huan. Apart from them, Tibit's 30,000 elites were also in formation. He did not mobilize the army to seize the city gate tower. Instead, he left the army formation with more than ten personal guards and Meng Huan, and went straight to the city gate tower.
He went to where Casder was.
At this moment, Tibitt's expression was calm, without the slightest bit of panic. When he saw Kass on the city gate tower, the distance between him and Tibitt slowly narrowed, from twenty steps to ten steps, and even to five or six steps, Tibitt spoke first, "City Lord, I would like to request a battle. This time, I want to redeem myself. I beg the City Lord to give me a chance to redeem myself. "
While walking, Tibit said, "My subordinates are all ready to participate in the battle. All of them want to prove themselves through this battle. "
The soldiers under Tibit had always dared to fight and kill.
His words were reasonable and reasonable.
Kade didn't suspect that Tibit would assassinate him, but he said, "There's no need to be anxious. The battle has just begun."
After saying that, Kass looked outside the city and stared at Xia Xia's soldiers who were attacking. Tibitt brought his men to Kass's side. At this moment, Meng Huan had already made a move. Although he was a merchant, his body was extremely nimble and fast. In the blink of an eye, he was behind Kass.
Meng Huan stretched out a dagger in his hand. His left hand grabbed Kass's neck, and he pulled the dagger in his right hand. With a slash, he cut Kass's neck artery. Dark red blood spurted out with a 'pu' sound.
Kass's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
How could this be?
Tibitt actually sent someone to assassinate him.
He actually killed him.
Kass wanted to open his mouth to speak, but the blood had already surged into his throat. He wanted to speak, but when the words reached his mouth, they came out in a muffled voice. He couldn't make any sound at all. In the next moment, Kass lost consciousness. His tall and sturdy body collapsed to the ground.
Waldo was about to speak, but he was restrained by the people around Tibitt. Tibitt directly ordered, "Men, open the city gate and welcome Xia Xia's army into the city. Kass is dead. Those who surrender will not be killed. Those who resist will be killed without mercy! "
The city gate tower was already in a mess.
Many people had seen Kass killed. Originally, there were many soldiers on the city gate tower, and they were enough to kill Tibitt. However, after Kass was killed, and especially after Waldo was taken down, everyone panicked. They no longer had any fighting spirit.
All of them either chose to surrender or flee. As such, Tibitt's soldiers quickly climbed up the city gate tower and quickly took the initiative. A portion of Tibitt's soldiers quickly opened the city gate and lowered the drawbridge.
The moment the drawbridge was lowered, Meng Huan took out a whistling arrow and released it. After the whistling arrow exploded in the air, Ma Yuan, who was outside the city, immediately gave the order to advance. Even so, Ma Yuan did not personally enter the city. He first sent a group of soldiers into the city to take over the city's defenses. Then, Ma Yuan led the army into the city and took over the city's defenses. At the same time, he detained all of the Persian soldiers.
Ma Yuan also climbed up the city gate tower.
When Tibitt saw Ma Yuan, he knelt on one knee and cupped his fists, "General Tibitt greets General Ma."
Ma Yuan stretched out his hand to help Tibitt up as he said, "General Tibitt, we were able to easily win this battle because of your submission. If you hadn't submitted to Xia Xia, it would not have been so easy for Xia Xia to take over Bolam City. I will report your contributions to His Majesty. When the time comes, whether you will be in charge of an army or a region will depend on His Majesty's decision. In short, you will be treated better in Xia Xia than in Bolam City. You will not be mistreated. This is my promise to you. "
Tibitt said, "I trust General Ma. Moreover, Xia Xia's Kingdom is very powerful. It is my honor to serve Xia Xia."
To Tibitt, he did not feel that submitting to Xia Xia was a big deal. As long as he could protect his woman and his power, it would be a good choice.
Ma Yuan quickly took control of all of the Persian soldiers. There were close to 80,000 Persian soldiers in Bolam City. This was not a weak force. Ma Yuan's current military strength was only 50,000. If he wanted to reorganize all of them, he would have to make some adjustments. Otherwise, there would be a certain amount of risk with these 80,000 elites.
The army was detained in the barracks. Ma Yuan arranged for people to guard the city gates and take control of Bolam City. At this time, Lai Ji and Meng Huan had already arrived.
Tibitt had been following Ma Yuan. When he saw Lai Ji, he said, "Mr. Zhao."
Lai Ji said, "General Tibitt, my name is Lai Ji. Zhao Lai Ji is just my alias."
When Tibitt heard this, he said in shock, "I didn't expect it to be Mr. Lai Ji from the Cabinet. It is my fortune to have Mr. Lai Ji personally come forward to instigate me! "
Lai Ji smiled and said, "General Tibitt, you flatter me."
After speaking with Tibitt, he looked at Ma Yuan and said, "General Ma, the 80,000 elite soldiers of the Persian Kingdom are now detained together. How do you plan to deal with them?"
Ma Yuan said, "Of course, I will reorganize them and scatter them into the army. The soldiers of the Persian Kingdom should be treated the same as the soldiers of Xia Xia. Moreover, many of the soldiers of the Persian Kingdom are slave soldiers. When they were recruited, many of them didn't even get paid. Under this premise, we should be able to take over the Persian Kingdom's army and make the majority of them wholeheartedly submit to us. It won't be difficult for us. "
Lai Ji nodded and said, "General Ma's words are correct. To drive these soldiers and even make them submit, the most important thing is to solve their needs. As for the assimilation of their culture, we will consider it later. "
Ma Yuan smiled and said, "Since Mr. Lai Ji approves, I will make the arrangements."
Lai Ji said, "It should be so."
Ma Yuan changed the topic and said, "I will preside over the reorganization of the army and adjust the situation in Bolam City. I will need Mr. Lai Ji's help. The operation of government affairs is what you are good at. I am not good at these things. "
Lai Ji said, "It is my duty."
After the two discussed for a while, they went about their own business. At the same time, the battle report in Bolam City was sent out as fast as possible by the soldiers.
