The miscellaneous troops of Tang Tianzhu, who waited for work and took advantage of their leisure time to occupy favorable terrain, gained the upper hand in a short time against the Arab elites who fled in panic.
But these Arab soldiers were also afraid. They were afraid of unknown forces and explosions of unknown origin.
Now that they were seeing live people in front of them, the motley army of Tang Dynasty and Tianzhu, they were no longer afraid.
So although I was caught off guard at first, I gradually started to stabilize.
However, Wang Yuan and the others had no intention of fighting each other to death. After killing and injuring hundreds of people on the other side, they began to run away again.
And on the way, he used the last bit of explosives to successfully scare the other party away.
The days in the mountains are short and it always gets dark earlier.
As soon as this gets entangled, it gets dark.
Without the moon, it was really impossible to see anything, and Jafar didn't dare to pursue it anymore.
Who knows what else lies ahead in this pitch black darkness? If we encounter any unscientific scene again and cause the camp to roar, it will really be over.
On the other side, Wang Yuan and the others also returned to the camp in the mine.
"At least two thousand people were killed and injured today!" a craftsman said with a grin.
Although he is just a civilian, he is not timid at all at this time.
"But these casualties are nothing to the opponent!" Wang Yuan said with some worry: "Starting tomorrow, we will only have to guard the small opening into the mining area. Fortunately, the place is not big, and the opponent's army cannot rush forward. , we should still be able to defend it for two days, but the traps and explosives are gone.”
"Will Duke Pingguo really come to save us?" asked a person from other caravans.
"What do you mean?" Tang Gui glared at him: "Our boss will never give up on anyone!"
The man was glared at by Tang Gui and did not dare to speak anymore, but his question was actually the question of many people.
Who could believe that Tang Ping, the most famous Guildhall in the Tang Dynasty, would go all the way to this ravine to save craftsmen, businessmen, clerks and even slaves like them?
Except for some people from the Tang Chamber of Commerce, everyone else saw the scene of the Arab army attacking the mountain today and felt that it would be difficult to survive this time.
Just when everyone's momentum was low, a child from Latan City pointed to the sky and shouted
Said: "There are stars flying into the sky!"
Everyone else turned their heads, and then Wang Yuan and Tang Gui looked at each other in shock.
"Here we are, people from Tang's Trading Company are here. This is our signal, it's unmistakable."
"In the south, the signal is coming from the south. It must be people sent by Pingguo Gong. They are telling us that they are coming to pick us up from the south!"
"Can you go home? Can you really go home this time?"
Everyone in the camp cheered.
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet!" Wang Yuan waved his hand, finally quieting down the excited crowd.
"Now that Duke Ping has come to pick us up, everyone doesn't have to worry. Everyone except those keeping watch tonight will have a good rest. We have to prepare tomorrow Get out of the mountain!”
After comforting everyone and letting everyone rest, Wang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
He was just a veteran, and later he came to Tang's Trading Company as a manager, and he only managed a few hundred people.
But now the lives of more than 20,000 people are weighing on his shoulders, and he is the one who is under the greatest pressure.
"Mr. Wang, can everyone really evacuate safely tomorrow?" At this time, Raja Sri asked beside Wang Yuan.
"What?" Wang Yuan was stunned.
"Mr. Wang should know that it is not easy for people from the Tang Dynasty to come so quickly, but do you think there will be a large army coming? Can the people who come here pick up more than 20,000 people at once?"
Raja Sri looked at Wang Yuan, but neither of them spoke.
Before knowing about the arrival of Datang, the two parties could still cooperate sincerely.
Now that the picker has arrived, there is a gap.
It's not that Wang Yuan didn't think of what Raja Sri said, but he couldn't say it.
He just wants to take these people out first. He can't decide who can leave then or who can leave first.
And deep in his heart, it was Datang's ship that came to pick him up, so naturally the people who had to leave first were also Datang's people.
"So what does Her Majesty the Queen mean?"
Raja Sri smiled and said: "Mr. Wang has worked hard today and he must be tired. Let us direct the battle tomorrow."
"You!" Wang Yuan looked at Raja Sri, waved his hand and said, "Okay, in that case, leave it to Her Royal Highness the Queen."
Tianzhu
There are not only 4,000 elite soldiers, but also more than 10,000 civilians.
There are only a few hundred mine guards on Wang Yuan's side, and the rest are guards from the Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce. If there is a conflict, they will definitely be at a disadvantage.
After taking two steps, Wang Yuan turned back: "Aren't you afraid of our boss?"
"Afraid!" Raja Sri admitted honestly: "The people I am most afraid of are Tian Khan and your Duke Pingguo of the Tang Dynasty."
"But this is my Tianzhu's last strength and tribe, and I must protect their interests!"
Ragashri said: "Only by getting out alive first can there be a possibility in the future. As for Duke Ping, although I am afraid of him, I know he is a good man. He may kill me because of my mistakes, but he will never Will touch other members of my tribe!”
Tian Almost the entire territory of Zhu was occupied by the Arab Empire. Raja Sri didn’t even know that except for the 4,000 elite soldiers and more than 10,000 people of Ratan City around him, , where are the people from Tianzhu?
She no longer thinks about restoring her country, she just wants these people to survive.
Even if she had to offend Tang Ping on these Tang people's terms tomorrow, she would not hesitate.
I don’t know how many people were able to have a good sleep this night.
The next day, just before dawn, the Arab Empire's army launched an attack.
As a result, the counterattack of Jade Mine was beyond their imagination.
The bows, arrows and fallen rocks inside were thrown outside as if they were free of charge. Jafar was so angry that his beard stood straight up!
"There's no need to really attack, just feign an attack. I want to see how many bows and arrows there are in their little mine?"
What he was most afraid of was actually the two inexplicable explosions yesterday, but thinking about it now, the first one was quite powerful.
The second time just scared them and slowed down the rhythm of their attack.
There hasn't been a third time so far, so the things used for this kind of explosion must be relatively precious and must have been used up.
Otherwise, if you have such a sharp weapon and you can just throw it at their heads, why would you need to defend like this?
Raja Sri took over the command in the mine. Of course she also knew that the Arab army was only powerful and had no real attack.
But it doesn't matter, just use these few bows and arrows to suppress the opponent and wait until Datang arrives.
