My God, I am the emperor, the lord of mankind.

Chapter 499 Raid
Shi Tianjue told the story of the battle to An Dahan in front of him.

He relayed the words from the immortal priests who had narrowly escaped and survived.

"First, a large number of bows and arrows rained down on the priests' team, and then there was the impact of the sudden cavalry. The Mongolian tribes who surrendered to Akito no longer had any honor at all."

"They started the war without declaring it. First they polluted the priests' magic with rotting corpses and filth, and then they launched an attack by the desperate army all over the mountains and plains."

Hearing this, Ada Khan interrupted him.

"Those slave soldiers cannot harm the sacrifice of Changshengtian."

"Yes, those lowly slaves really can't."

There was a little uneasiness in Shi Tianjue's voice.

"But what if it's those bloody corpses from West Asia?"

"Impossible! How could those Zoroastrian priests stand on the side of the Ming court! When the Ming people founded the country, they killed so many of their religious leaders. Have they forgotten the hatred passed down from generation to generation to the Ming people!"

An Dahan stabilized his emotions.

This is why I trust him so much. As a scholar deeply influenced by the Confucian spirit, he is different from those Mongolian chiefs who follow the wind and have no sense of loyalty.

He became more and more aware that this heaven-sacrifice ceremony must be successful, even if it now seemed that the ceremony was full of dangers.

I don’t believe that those members of the Zoroastrian Cult are all on the side of the Ming Dynasty.

"They have sufficient reasons to help Mingren win this war. Although the current situation seems that Mingting wants to control the Mongolian Plateau with the Tantric strength of Uzang after the war, and then advance into Central Asia, but the Zoroastrian Cult The foundation of the believers is in the far west of the Western Region. Even if they lose control of Central Asia, for the Zoroastrian Cult, as long as Ming people can help them defeat the Tianfang Cult, it is not unacceptable to lose Central Asia and Mongolia to the Esoteric Sect. thing."

This may be due to the fact that the Ming Dynasty emperors trusted Hu generals and Mongolian officials very much.

He felt dizzy for a moment.

Fortunately, he grabbed the armrest of the tiger-skin throne on which he sat in time and prevented himself from sliding off the chair.

This means that even their escape route to West Asia has been completely blocked.

It's really sad.

Han warriors and counselors from the south have always been the most trustworthy force for the grassland kings.

"Go on and speak."

The simple moral concepts of the Mongolians and the noble loyalty and integrity of Confucianism need to be in the territory of the empire to shine brightly.

"Yes, the followers of the Zoroastrian Cult and Akito have a sworn hatred. However, if the Zoroastrian Cultists hope to use Akito to defeat the Tianfang Sect that competes with them for believers in Central and West Asia—"

Shi Tianjue was talking eloquently. Even at this precarious moment, he was still seriously analyzing the situation in front of him.

If even the Zoroastrian Cult defected to the Ming Dynasty, it would definitely be a bolt from the blue for the Mongols.

He had never been so uneasy and confused as at this moment.

"Even if someone from the Zoroastrian Cult intervened, at most the priests would lose a few manpower without noticing. How could there be such heavy casualties?"

"After the first batch of blood corpses were destroyed by the priests using the witchcraft of Changshengtian, they successfully backfired on the monks from West Asia. However, the charge of the blood corpses and slave soldiers cleared the way for the subsequent Mongolian soldiers."

Shi Tianjue continued to tell his story. The Mongolian generals who followed Amada Khan here were all Amada Khan's loyal confidants.

He did not hide how the war was lost in order to maintain a semblance of unity.

This kind of lie is only used to confuse the Mongol chiefs who are lying around like grass on the wall under the Mongol Khan.

For the true inner circle, lies, even victorious lies, will affect their judgment of the future situation.

They have to calm down, calm down, calm down.

Rumors of victory were intended to stabilize the hearts and minds of the wavering tribal chiefs and Mongolian herdsmen below.

They are like cunning wolves. Failure cannot defeat them, it will only make them more ferocious.

Silently licking their wounds in the darkness, then following the powerful enemies who had defeated them, and then waiting for the opportunity to move.

"Akito's heavily armored knights were dispatched. They were wearing some kind of iron clothing that could temporarily block witchcraft. Their lances penetrated the chests of the first row of priests, but fortunately, the subsequent priests gradually realized that this was Akito's conspiracy, but fortunately those Akito's armors are not without limits... After the priests used the repelling spell to knock these heavily armored soldiers off their horses, Akito's imperial army came forward immediately."

"Those personal warriors of the Ming Emperor? I heard that they are all just showy, and their combat effectiveness is not even as good as those of the Beijing troops who are responsible for guarding the capital."

Someone among the many sweats under Anda who listened quietly raised a question.

Shi Tianjue looked at this man. He was a Mongolian general who had been ordered to garrison the Enen Glacier in the north for a long time.

His tribe is so far away from the Central Plains that their news is so blocked.

"That's already the old almanac -"

Shi Tianjue was not angry at the prairie man's doubts, he explained patiently.

"The Forbidden Army currently responsible for protecting the Ming Emperor is the most powerful military force in the empire. They gave the Ming Emperor evil witchcraft to transform their bodies and became half human and half beast, able to fight against the terror of ligers and tigers. warrior."

"Like Zhu Yuanzhang's personal bodyguard? Zhu Di's Shaoguan personal army?"

The Great Khan nodded thoughtfully.

Everyone also expressed their understanding at this time.

For the Mongols, the personal soldiers of the Ming Dynasty emperor were no stranger to them.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang's personal bodyguards were originally modeled after Emperor Yuan's personal bodyguards, Yuanting's most elite Xue cavalry.

As for Zhu Houcong's new-style forbidden army, in their view, it was nothing more than the emperor's guard organized in a new way.

"The Imperial Guards were hiding under the belly of the horse. When Akito's cavalry on horseback was knocked away, the priests breathed a brief sigh of relief and lowered their guard. However, it was this temporary rest that gave these Akito The emperor's personal guards had an excellent opportunity. They jumped out from under the horse's belly and rushed towards the Changshengtian sacrifices who were already fighting closely with them."

Shi Tianjue recalled such a horrific massacre.

The priests were caught off guard and were approached by well-trained Akito warriors.

Most of the witchcraft they were proud of had no effect in front of those fierce warriors.

And the final result was not unexpected.
