Chapter 1178 Prepare, Fight Again!
Chapter 1178
"My lord, what should I do?"
Across the Tigris River, countless Dashi soldiers and horses fell to the ground in shock, and got out of the icy river one after another. On the bank of the river, Hural looked at Fadi, the leader of the obsidian, with a face full of unwillingness.
"That's too late!"
Fadi said with a gloomy face. He raised his head and glanced above, the sky was overcast with dark clouds, with only a faint light shining through, and before he knew it, it was nighttime. In this environment, no matter how unwilling Fadi is, he can only calm down and wait for tomorrow to fight again.
"Has the army led by Galil not arrived yet?"
Fadi turned his head to look at a general behind him.
"Returning to my lord, Lord Garyll is already on his way with all his strength. It's just that the weather is cold and the steel bridge across the river is too heavy, so the distance is a little slower. I'm afraid we won't be able to arrive until tomorrow morning."
The big food general behind him lowered his head and bowed.
Hearing this sentence, Fadi's eyes flashed an angry look. For this siege, Dashi almost mobilized the whole country, and the preparations made were much more than many people imagined.
In the original strategy, Dashi prepared a large number of long steel cable bridges to cross the river. It's just that Fadi thinks that there are already a large number of warships, so there is no need to wait for these cumbersome long steel bridges.
Fadi never thought that the military would pay an extremely heavy price because of his decision.
"Command Jalil to march quickly. At dawn tomorrow, I must see those long steel bridges across the river!"
Fadi didn't turn his head back.
"The general obeys orders!"
The general behind him bowed.
"In addition, Hullal, write a letter to His Majesty the Caliph for me, and tell him that our top troops are far from enough. I hope His Majesty can send more generals from the empire to completely wipe out these Tang people. Also, if possible , Your Majesty, no matter what, send Governor Ansari to assist the Khorasan fighters!"
Fadi said.
hum!
Hearing Ansari's name, Hullal was shocked, and his eyes opened wide. In the Great Food Empire, Ansari's name is in the sky, even if it is compared with Qudibo, it may not be too far behind. At the beginning of the Dashi, Ansari and Qudibo were called the two heroes of the Dashi, but later in the battle for the God of War in the Dashi, Ansari lost to Qudibo, and he was angry and withdrew from the army.
For so many years, Qudibo has been leading the army to conquer the north and south, immersed in the joy of conquest. And Ansari has been practicing latently in order to defeat Qutippo to avenge his shame.
After so many years of hard work, there have long been rumors in the outside world that Ansari's strength has actually surpassed that of Qudibo. Some people have seen Ansari before, but just by looking at him, he felt chills all over his body and completely lost the will to fight. .
If it was just an ordinary legend, no one would care about it, but the person who said this was a governor of the Great Food. After this incident spread, it caused a huge shock in the whole Great Food.
However, Ansari has a brutal temperament, even worse than Qutippo, and sometimes even attacks his allies. Almost no one in the empire wants to have too much relationship with Ansari.
"By the way, there is also Adil, the dead governor of the southern war zone, and he is also transferred here. There is no need for other soldiers and horses, as long as they come over.
"
At this moment, Feralas, the blood of Hei Yao, suddenly spoke.
"But my lord, Lord Adil is dealing with the Wadler people in the south and the peasant uprising army, so there is no time for him."
Hural opened the mouth and said, with a hint of hesitation in his voice.
Although Dashi is extremely powerful, there are also many enemies, and they also need to guard them. The more countries they conquer, the more resistance they encounter. This is also the reason why Dashi cannot dispatch all the governors at once. Although the enemies around Dashi are not as powerful as Datang, there are only a lot of weak resistance forces. This is why Dashi has to leave many garrisons in various places. soldiers.
Although Adil is powerful, his position is very important and cannot be easily transferred at all.
"It won't be a big problem to leave for about ten days. Besides, are the tribes in the south stronger than the 200,000 enemy troops in Khorasan?"
Feras said in a deep voice.
"this……"
Hullal lowered his head and fell silent for a while. This time, the threat from the east far surpassed any force around Dashi, and was even stronger than all of them combined.
In addition, although Datang's combined army is only 200,000, which is not too much, everyone has witnessed their strength. Before this war started, two hundred thousand soldiers and horses had already been killed in the battle of Dashi Famen, which was impossible for any force around Dashi.
"Understood! I'll do it now!"
Hullal said in a deep voice.
Next, the three giants of Hei Yao reported the names of more than a dozen governors of the Great Food, and Hullal recorded them all one by one. After a while, a big hunting falcon quickly soared into the sky and headed towards Baghdad.
"Hulal sent an order to cross the river and launch a full-scale attack when all the long steel cable bridges arrive tomorrow. All the Tang people and Khorasan people in the city will be killed!"
"yes!"
...
The night was getting darker, and with the retreat of the big cannibals, the whole Khorasan gradually fell into a calm, the weather was getting colder and colder, no one noticed, along the majestic and steep Khorasan city, a thin layer of frost slowly The situation at this time is even colder than in the early morning.
But at this moment, the lights in Khorasan City were roaring. The day's battle was over, and Datang had won a huge victory with a small sacrifice, but everything was far from over.
"Master Protector, what should we do next? Although Dashi has already retreated, this loss is far from hurting them."
A voice sounded from the corner of the hall. Xi Yuanqing looked at Wang Chong at the head of the hall with a slightly dignified expression.
"And judging from the previous combat style of the big cannibals, the battles during the day are at a disadvantage. I'm afraid they will be more fully prepared for the next wave of attacks, and the attacks will be more rapid. Not only that, I worry that they will attract more Experts and troops, after all, this place is too close to Baghdad."
Cheng Qianli also spoke. Their expressions were extremely heavy. This was not the first time they had fought against the big cannibals. In the Battle of Talas, they thought they had repelled the big cannibals, but the reinforcements from the big cannibals kept coming. Waves, and getting stronger and stronger.
"More than that, in this wave, more rebels would have joined Khorasan to support us. But I got news that almost all the rebels around Dashi have been severely suppressed recently. My feeling , Dashi is trying to find a way to mobilize more border guards to deal with us. For Dashi and the Caliphate, we may have become their confidantes."
Bahram spoke heavily:
"It is impossible for us to fight against the entire Dashi with 200,000 troops. This is impossible! General, without the support of Datang, we may not be able to compete with it at all. General, do you really think we can stop it?" Do you want to make this wave?"
After speaking of the last sentence, Bahram looked at Wang Chong with worry in his eyes.
Datang was too far away from Khorasan. Wang Chong had already told him that it was impossible for Datang's reinforcements to arrive, at least not so fast. But Wang Chong revealed more than once that everyone could block Dashi's attack, and they were extremely confident, as if they had made plans and relied on them.
But Bahram really couldn't figure out what exactly Wang Chong was relying on. At first he thought that Wang Chong was just keeping a secret from himself out of secrecy, but he didn't expect that even Gao Xianzhi and Cheng Qianli didn't know about it.
"Buzz!"
Hearing Bahram's words, all eyes in the hall were focused on Wang Chong in an instant, even the black-armored guards who seldom opened their mouths also looked over. Everyone looked at Wang Chong with trusting and expectant expressions.
This war has progressed to the present, and Wang Chong has become the backbone of everyone. Even Gao Xianzhi, the experienced and experienced Chief Protector of Anxi, unknowingly put a lot of trust in Wang Chong.
"Hehe, I have already arranged everything. Before tomorrow, everything will be clear."
Wang Chong smiled slightly.
Hearing Wang Chong's words, everyone in the room was surprised.
There are so many big food troops outside the city, and there are many imperial generals. It is not easy for everyone to resist this wave. Wang Chong actually said that these big food troops can be dealt with before dawn, which is unbelievable.
If it was a different person, everyone would think he was a lunatic, but from what Wang Chong said, no matter how crazy he was, everyone believed that Wang Chong was serious.
A meeting ends quickly. Out of trust in Wang Chong, after knowing that the arrangement had been made, everyone didn't ask any more questions. Time passed slowly, and the surrounding temperature was getting colder and colder. nervous.
To the southeast of Khorasan City, in a gorgeously decorated dome hall, a candle was lit. In the dim light, Wang Chong sat cross-legged, motionless. The night was deep, and there was silence inside and outside Khorasan City, except for the sound of the rushing Tigris River outside the city, and a few horses neighing from Xi Yuyu, there was nothing else.
Time was slowly passing by. Although he couldn't see anything in front of him, Wang Chong could feel that the people in the whole city were silently paying attention to him and waiting for him.
But not many people know that Wang Chong is also waiting for that event to come.
"Boom boom boom!"
While meditating, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Come in."
Wang Chong took a deep breath and came back to his senses.
