Chapter 39 Prelude

Peshawar!

Peshawar, the capital of the Kushan dynasty in the past, has now become a military base for Arab attacking the Tang Dynasty.

Abu Muslim returned to Peshawar with his defeated soldiers and crawled on the ground with Kahtaba to apologize to Mosremasa.

Abu Muslim is fine, but he is a little in a bad mood.

Kahtaba was in a mess, with two knife wounds on his body: when the Arab army was retreating step by step, no matter how brave he was, he was unable to make up for the world. He resisted for a while and suffered two traumas and drove the Kabul River down the Tang army.

Arabs also have a personal guard system that is the same as the Tang army, but their personal guard system is more stringent.

Most of the people who act as personal guards are privately raised war slaves. Once the master dies in battle, the war slaves will be implicated.

Therefore, under the desperate protection of the war slaves, Kahtaba swam across the Kabul River and escaped.

In order to cross the river and escape, he had to take off his armor and discard the battle axe and shield...

Kahtaba followed Mosremasa and Abu Muslim to fight for many years, but he had not yet suffered a defeat. Now he was full of shame and wanted to avenge his previous shame.

After hearing Abu Muslim explain the defeat in detail, Mosremasa helped his beloved general up and said, "This battle is not your fault. Feng Changqing is not an easy person, let alone a Pei who is like Scipio, it is normal to lose. Even if I were the ones I wouldn't be able to win."

Scipio was an excellent military strategist in the West. He was the one who defeated the man who was known as the Eastern Xiang Yu Hannibal.

In Western military history, Scipio is similar to China's Wu Qi and Han Xin.

Mosremasa compared Pei to Scipio, which is obviously a very high praise.

"When I first heard the thunder of the sky, I knew that the thunder of the sky would definitely be used on the battlefield. As expected, the thunder of the sky was a weapon on the battlefield. It's a pity that it was not owned by me by Arabia."

He has always had a desire to peek at the Sky Thunder, but the Tang Dynasty's protection measures for Sky Thunder were extremely in place.

Except for Pei, there are only a few people in the Ministry of Works, and the rest of the company have no contact with the formula.

Feng Changqing could not do it to make the sky-blasting thunder that exploded Tang Bridge at one time.

Therefore, Mosremasa concluded that Pei must be involved in this battle.

Abu Muslim looked at his commander in surprise. If he had suffered such a shameful defeat in the past, he would have to be beaten a few times. He was ready to be punished, but he did not want to be so calm.

Abu Muslim did not know that the arrogant Mosremasa had changed his temper after seeing the brilliant glory of the Tang Dynasty.

Mosremasa was arrogant and thought that Arabia was the most powerful country in the world. What he wanted to do was to help his brothers and dominate the world, like Alexander and Caesar in the past, conquering the world.

But when I arrived in the Tang Dynasty and saw the glory of the Tang army, I was like a frog in a well, and I was completely enlightened.

He never acknowledged that Arabia was weak, but he had to admit that except for military affairs, Arabia was no match for the Tang Dynasty, especially the cultural economy.

And he has always advocated that strength is everything and realized the importance of technology.

Many years ago, the Arab navy was wiped out, and the real reason was the Greek fire.

How did technology come about?

It's culture.

This is also what Arabs learned from the Tang Dynasty after in-depth contact with the Tang Dynasty.

The expansion of this vision is not only the Tang Dynasty is progressing, but also the Arab world.

This is also the reason why Arabia did not have civil strife as in history.

The butterfly effect caused by Pei.

Mosremasa said: "This is also the reason why I have been rashly fighting against the Tang Dynasty. My initial plan was to seize Byzantium. Byzantium inherited the Roman culture and had a strong economic foundation. If we swallowed Byzantium, our economic and cultural culture would be improved. At that time, it was the best time to truly confront the Tang Dynasty. But Pei saw through this, reminded Byzantium, and reached an alliance with them, which ruined my original plan."

He paused and said, "Now Tubo has restrained most of Pei's troops, which is our opportunity. A defeat is nothing. This time I went to fight myself and met Scipio of the Tang Dynasty."

"Yes!" Abu Muslim had a full admiration for Mosremasa and responded enthusiastically.

Kahtaba said with gritted teeth: "I am willing to take the lead for the Lion King, and I will definitely cut off Feng Changqing's head and wash away the shame."

***************

Wuzhanna country.

As a country that does not even have an army, there are only a small country that protects public order in less than 500.

Since Mosremasa stationed in Peshawar, King Narenyechi couldn't sleep or eat.

A hundred thousand army, one person and one can jump over the country of Wuzhan.

It was not until Pei's arrival that Nian Yeqi felt a little relieved.

Pei, who is like the savior, is very respectful and even wants to give up his palace to Master Pei.

Pei has been in the army for many years and has always suffered, but he is unwilling to violate this taboo and has not agreed to it.

But it was hard to refuse the kindness, and I was waiting for the banquet in Wuzhan.

Outside Wuzhan City!

Pei welcomed Feng Changqing, who had just won.

"Ship Pei!" Feng Changqing came forward to pay homage.

Behind him was a young general, seven feet tall and tall. He saw that he was brave and powerful, and then said, "I have met Shuai Pei!"

Pei Duo glanced at him and smiled, "Chang Qing, who is this general? Very extraordinary!"

Feng Changqing immediately said: "It was Anxi's general. When the last general saw that he was very brave, he specially summoned him to the tent to listen to him. Qianli, and introduce himself to Pei Shuai."

The burly man named Qianli stepped forward and said, "The last general Cheng Qianli, the former ten thousand years old, has met Pei Shuai."

Cheng Qianli!

Pei doesn't remember his specific deeds, but there is such a person in his memory. No one can easily appear in his memory.

Pei pulled Feng Changqing into the city and talked about the previous war with Feng Changqing.

Feng Changqing explained the story in detail, his tone was a little low.

The geographical location of the Kabul River is undoubtedly a place that must be fought for by military strategists.

It is natural to unfold the first battle here.

Pei also specially sent black gunpowder to help Feng Changqing win the battle.

Feng Changqing's original plan was to pretend to fail, lure the enemy to the river, and then blow up Tangqiao, and wipe out all the enemies across the river.

However, in this battle, Feng Changqing found that he had no need to retreat and lure the enemy.

The Anxi soldiers under his command were inferior to Arabs when it comes to combat effectiveness.

This active retreat is the same as the oppressed retreat and the meaning of retreating completely differently.
