If something like this had happened before, this old man would have stood up and said something. We can't go too far. These people have been fighting on the front line for a long time before they finally broke out and gave us such an important thing. If they are brought back, even if we don't reward them, we must not kill them, otherwise none of the defeated will be willing to come back and find a place to run away.

It's a pity that after a series of great changes, Governor Faisal is not a fool. Often if you do good to His Highness the Prince, you will be whipped if you say anything. So let's just be honest and do whatever His Highness the Prince says. Anyway, we will do it. When something happened, His Highness the Prince stood in front of us, and we only carried out His Highness the Prince's orders.

To put it bluntly, it means changing from a thoughtful subordinate to a tool that can only execute orders. Only in this way can you survive with His Highness the Prince. Otherwise, you will be waiting to be whipped, and you may even be sent to prison. Go to jail.

Take the subordinate officials of the Anton Governor's Mansion as an example. There used to be more than 300 people in total. Now there are still more than 100 old people left. These more than 200 people don't know where they have been assigned. Some people They were killed directly, and some people were dismissed from office.

Anyway, there were various reasons. Governor Faisal also understood the situation in front of him, so he did not dare to meddle in his own business, and stood in his position honestly, ringing the clock like a monk every day.

"These Tang Dynasty armies are so abominable. They actually openly attacked our army. If this is the case, there is nothing more to say. Send my order to declare war on the Tang Empire immediately and summon all our armies. In the future, we will set off to Shiguo City and destroy all the Tang troops."

Just when Governor Faisal was stunned, he suddenly heard this sentence. This is really too hasty. Although the two countries are already at war, we don't know much about the situation in the east, especially the defeat of our army. After that, the intelligence in that area was simply blank.

The most powerful trick for us Arabs in fighting is sneak attack. When the enemy is not prepared, our cavalry will come and kill without a trace. This will cause the greatest damage to the enemy, and we can also obtain the greatest results.

Of course, everything must be based on military intelligence. We must first know the status of the opponent's army and where it is stationed, so that we can carry out sneak attacks. But now we have zero intelligence on this area, and all intelligence systems The military system has collapsed. If we send troops rashly under such circumstances, our chances of winning will be slim.

"Your Highness, please relax a little and send someone over to see what's going on. After these investigators come back, we can make plans. If we send troops rashly, we may fall into the opponent's trap."

Governor Faisal did not stand up to speak, but there are some other smart people in the army. They can usually watch the prince misbehave, but they have to dispatch an army of 100,000 at every turn. This is no small matter. An army of 20,000 We can afford to lose. If we lose these 100,000 troops, then all the land within the Anton Governor's Mansion of the Arab Empire will become ownerless land.

The Western Region is very far from the seat of the Tang Dynasty, and the land of Anton Governor's Mansion is also very far from the Arab Empire. If all these 100,000 troops are lost, then the remaining troops will not be a concern at all. The Tang Dynasty can easily Occupied, if we want to take it back again, the difficulty will increase several times.

"There is nothing to worry about. Our army is the most powerful army in the world. The Tang army just attacked us sneakily. If there is a real face-to-face confrontation, they will never be our problem. What nonsense is Sun Tzu's Art of War? In my opinion, it’s just opportunistic, so don’t be afraid to follow this prince to occupy the entire Western Region.”

Prince Salaman became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke. He was like a firecracker that had been set on fire. He was already in an out-of-control state. Other officials wanted to persuade him a few words, but when they saw His Highness the Prince's smart eyes , they swallowed the words in their stomachs.

Only fools would stand up at this time. We are in the Chinese army camp anyway. If there is a fight, we people have the ability to escape. What is pitiful are the ordinary soldiers below. They may not have any chance to escape.

Including Governor Faisal, he always felt that this expedition was different from the previous ones. He was also an old man in the army, so naturally he also had this strange premonition. If he could win, why would he always have this feeling in his heart? Are you jumping?

I have to say that the soldiers brought by His Royal Highness from the country are definitely more than the soldiers in the Anton Governor's Mansion. This should give us great confidence, but all the officials in the Anton Governor's Mansion feel the danger.

In just two days, 120,000 troops were assembled. A large number of people rode camels to follow His Royal Highness. In addition, there were more than 40,000 soldiers of various ethnic groups recruited from the local area. They are willing to leave their families, but under the threat of the scimitar, these people must also follow the Arab soldiers on the expedition, otherwise the whole family will be executed.

Governor Faisal is responsible for managing logistics and following the army. Although the Arab army has never wanted logistics, this time it fought with the Tang army. Prince Salaman still left a dedicated person to take charge of logistics. During the war, we must We have to deal with it with all our strength, so we don’t have time to rob the surroundings, so all the food and drink for the whole battalion must be supplied from the rear.

Governor Faisal was very satisfied with this work. He was afraid of rushing to the front with the army because he would not feel safe that way. If he had to manage logistics from behind, he would be able to retreat early if something happened.

The group of people set off like this. Standing on the city wall of Samarkand, His Royal Highness the Prince was very high-spirited. Looking at the large group several miles long in the distance, this guy also felt heroic.

"It's time for you guys to catch up. If it were in the past, you would have reached the end of your career as an official and would not have any chance of promotion. Now follow this prince to conquer the entire Western Region. In the future, we can still Conquer the entire Tang Dynasty, and when this prince becomes the caliph, you will also be rewarded."

Facing the prince's bragging, they could only nod with a wry smile. (End of chapter)
