Chapter 1348: An Unexpected Discovery

Fazler secretly rejoiced that the Tang people did not understand the precautions, and actually allowed himself to walk around the barracks at will, knowing that the military camps of any country were extremely secret, how could he let any envoy of the enemy country spy on them?

Thinking of this, Fazler unexpectedly gave birth to a trace of contempt for the Tang people, and it seems that the defeat of Abbas and Mahdi is most likely not because the opponent is too strong, but because the empire has become less powerful than before.

When you go back, you must tell the caliph about this, and it's time for the imperial army to carry out an internal reorganization.

It's a summer and autumn afternoon, the sun is warm, the breeze is warm, everything is just right, if not the current war, it is a good time to hunt on horseback.

Fazl sighed to himself, he was a man accustomed to singing and dancing, and he was unimpressed by the caliph's reckless military force all year round, but the caliph was determined to build an empire that was never more powerful than ever, and this could not be said to be wrong.

It is only because each person's philosophy is different, and in the final analysis, only those who sit in the position of caliph have the ability to influence what path the world takes.

Fazler turned back to talk to Said in a low voice:

"The Tang people are so careless, we always have to spy on some important information to make this trip worthwhile!"

Saeed agrees, but is also a little worried.

"The Tang people don't restrict our actions, it may be that they are careless, or they may not care at all!"

Fazler nodded.

"No matter what, we were finally given a chance, no matter how clever the cover-up is, there are flaws, even if the Tang people are confident, they are too confident!"

Bang!

The sudden loud noise, accompanied by the tremor of the ground beneath his feet, really startled Fazle.

"Earthquake, is it an earthquake?!"

He shouted in some horror, but Saeyi stopped him, saving him a shame.

"Your Excellency, don't panic, this is the Tang people firing cannons!"

"What, what are you going to fire the cannon for?"

Fazler was puzzled, could it be that the Tang people had the ability to manipulate ghosts and gods to make the heavens and the earth tremble? The warriors of the empire were powerful, but they couldn't do this.

"No, no, no, this is the weapon of the Tang people, and the Tang people used this weapon called artillery to capture Mulu City, which has a tall city wall and a moat!"

Said explained patiently in a low voice, and Fazle tapped his head as if he remembered something.

"Yes, yes, I remembered that the caliph had indeed received a military report with a similar description, saying that when the Tang people broke the city, the heavens were shaken, and most of them thought it was nonsense, and that the defeated were trying to reduce their guilt. In this way, do the Tang people really have a weapon that can shake the earth?"

In response to Fazler's question, Said nodded and shook his head again.

Fazler was impatient with Said's habit of saying what he wanted to say, urging him to say what he knew.

After satisfying Fazler's appetite, Said said slowly:

"The artillery of the Don is to destroy enemy targets with incendiary * driving projectiles!"

What * projectile, Fazler didn't know anything about it, but fortunately he was not ashamed of knowing less, so he asked Syed to explain the specific characteristics and principles of this artillery with frequent questions. As long as it's not driven by the power of a ghost, there's nothing to be afraid of.

Saeed couldn't tell for a moment, so he and Fazler tried to find a high ground in the barracks to see what was going on outside.

Coincidentally, the Shenwu army camp is located on the south slope of the slope outside the city of Sylvan, standing in the open field just to see the situation outside the south slope from a distance, although the view is not very clear, but in general you can also see a seven, seven, eighty, eight.

Fazler had another idea, if the Imperial army attacked from the bottom of the slope, his own formation could be seen through by the Tang people at a glance, and even the rangers could be saved.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but retract the contempt he had just had for the Tang people.

Fearing that the Tang people would come and secretly spy on the military situation, Fazler was a little weak-hearted, and only watched nervously at the formation outside the barracks.

This black-clad and black-armored army was occasionally dotted with patches of fiery red, and he asked Saeed what the black and red military town had to say, and Saeed shook his head and explained:

"The armor of the Shenwu Army is all black, but the banner likes to be fiery red, and there is no special reason!"

Suddenly, the two of them noticed that there was actually green between black and red, and the soldier's uniform was black and white, but Fazler's face was obviously not good-looking.

Although it was far away, he could still make out it, the green was the flag, and the black and white clothes were the typical robes of the Great Eclipse.

The Umayyad Dynasty of Great Food likes to wear white robes, and the army gathers to fight, and the land is full of white oceans. The Abbasids, on the other hand, used black robes to recruit their armies, and when they fought in great battles, they devoured everything that dared to resist with a torrent of black.

This is also the reason why the Tang people called the Umayyad Dynasty a white-clothed food, and the Abbasids a black-clothed food.

The black-robed and white-robed soldiers who were practicing in a neat formation on the slope were not Tang people, they were all out-and-out cannibals.

Among them are the remnants of the white-clothed food, and the black-clothed eaters.

It is understandable that the remnants of the white-clothed eater colluded with the Tang people because of their hatred for the empire, but what puzzled Fazler was why the warriors who belonged to the empire would betray the caliph and become the eagle dogs of the Tang people.

"Sayyid, look, those, are those the warriors of the Empire?"

Said's eyesight is naturally not bad, and the huge army array in the distance can also be seen clearly, including not only the Tang people, but also the armies of various ethnic groups and tribes, they are all in an orderly manner around the Tang soldiers.

He relied on his knowledge of the Zhuhu tribe in the Western Regions to identify the various strange-shaped flags.

"That's the Grolo, that's the Tocharian...... Persian ......"

As Said continued to introduce him, Fazler's face became more and more ugly, these barbarian armed armies could cooperate with the Tang soldiers so obediently and tacitly, even the most elite Praetorian Guards of the empire might not be able to do this.

The Caliph had always been cruel to the disobedient barbarians in order to deter restless tribes who did not obey the Empire's management, and many of them were killed as a result.

Therefore, the vast majority of the barbarians in the empire who expressed obedience were forced by the military deterrence of the empire and had to choose to submit, but after all, those who would not do their best to cooperate with the empire were all foreign troops, and even sometimes they even dragged their feet openly and secretly.

Fazl couldn't understand how the Tang people's attack on Khorasan had been less than a year old, and how they had gathered so many people from various tribes to drive it, and even the Great Cannibals were among them, which was simply incredible.

Regardless of this one's ugly face, Saeed began his introduction again.

"Abbas's nephew surrendered to the Tang people, and was entrusted with a large number of troops by the Tang people, and I heard that the Tang people have not seized a lot of land in India......
