Mahdi's plan failed, and the Persian soldiers were far more cunning than he expected, slipping like fish in water, and although they were spotted several times, they eventually slipped out before all the thousand men were united.

"When did the Persians become so smart?"

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Mahdi behaved calmly, this question, no one present was able to answer, several generals were indignant, and they were all eager to try, intending to replace the thousand people who made mistakes, so as to show their faces in front of the prince.

"Okay, I know what you think, send another five thousand people up, if you can't annihilate the Persian soldiers, don't come back!"

The meaning of not coming back is not only literal, it is both a warning and a spur, if you can't completely annihilate this group of Persian soldiers who do not spare their hands, these people will be punished.

The generals readily agreed, and the self-confidence they had cultivated over the years of great victories was not enough to make them afraid of battle at the first setback.

This time, the Great Food Soldiers did not disappoint Mahdi, although they still failed to wipe them out, but they also inflicted heavy losses on the Persian soldiers, killing thousands and capturing hundreds.

After the Persian soldiers suffered heavy losses, they did not fall in love with the stack again, and fled to the southeast without looking back.

Mahdi ordered that the pursuit should not be pursued, and he had concerns about these Persian soldiers. The Persians showed unusual cunning, and who knows if there would be an ambush in the pursuit?

It's better to play steadily!

With a small victory in the first battle, Mahdi not only did not feel a little happy, but also frowned.

Underestimating the combat effectiveness of the Persian soldiers is one thing, and the Tang people are unwilling to show their faces easily, and hiding behind the Persians is the second thing.

The crusade was faced with an unprecedentedly cunning opponent, and the Romans in the West were as stupid as bulls in comparison. The reason why the Caliph has not been able to take Constantinople for many years is that in addition to the terrain of this big city is extremely easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is more that the Roman soldiers are tall and strong, and they can always defeat one enemy or even more.

It is precisely by virtue of this not obvious advantage that they have resisted the attack of the Great Eclipse for hundreds of years, and the two sides have won and lost each other.

And the Persians that Mahdi faced were also equipped with cunning tactics, which was a headache.

"The Tang taught the Persians to be as cunning as wild foxes in the desert, which is a troublesome thing. ”

Said knew it was time for him to step up and perform, otherwise the title of staff member would be worthless.

"No matter how cunning the Persians are, it is not for His Highness to beat the farts and urine, now the key is that they are afraid of being beaten and dare not attack easily, so why should our army bother with these flies and mosquitoes? At that point, take the opportunity to kick their ass again!"

The generals laughed, although this merchant clinged to the prince by virtue of his favor, it was reasonable to analyze the battle situation, and his favorability was naturally much more than before.

After a long silence, Mahdi asked again:

"Said, when do you think the Tang people will go head-to-head with me?"

"The Tang soldiers are small, they should all be concentrated near Mulu City, and before crossing the Persian Plateau, they should not encounter a large number of Tang soldiers! As for the Persian soldiers, they are just dead ghosts used to demolish the morale of our army, so there is no need to worry about it at all!"

Said's analysis is divided into four truths and six falsehoods, and even then it has won the approval of most people.

"Okay, the army will go straight to Mulu City!"

At Said's suggestion, Mahdi abandoned the idea of pursuing and destroying the Persians, and the army headed straight for Mulu City.

In an unnamed dense forest, there were countless soldiers and war horses, and the soldiers were silent one by one, and the war horses were also chewed to prevent neighing and attracting the attention of the pursuers.

"Your Highness, are we just going to hide all the time?"

Ku Si Lao wiped the sweat mixed with blood on his face, his expression was so cold, and he threw out two words hard.

"No!"

According to the plan, at this time, he should conquer the city in the south of Tianzhu and enjoy the fruits and pleasure of victory. However, with a higher pursuit, he is not proud of conquering Tianzhu people.

It's like a sturdy youth defeating an immature child, so what is there to be proud of and show off?

Unlike the Great Cannibal, it is known that the Great Cannibal is the most powerful existence in this land, and only by defeating the Great Cannibal can the fame of Great Persia rise again.

It's a pity that the big cannibal is so powerful that he has defeated more than one percent of his subordinates in just two encirclement and suppression.

Because it was not easy to win this opportunity, and because he hurriedly returned from Tianzhu, he only brought more than 10,000 people with him, and he was vulnerable to fighting with all his strength yesterday, which greatly dampened his self-esteem.

The word revenge burned in Kuth's chest like pouring oil on the flames of anger.

"The prime minister of the Tang Dynasty ordered us to only contain the big food soldiers, not to be brutal, and to preserve our strength is the first priority......"

Kuth glared at the staff member beside him, and the staff member closed his eyes in amusement.

Qin Jin's order itself made Ku Si Lao feel discriminated against, could it be that only the Shenwu Army was worthy of fighting the Great Cannibal head-on?

In order to prove that he deserves to be the heir to the Persian throne, defeating the Great Cannibal himself is the most needed.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, the Great Cannibal has moved!"

The return of the probe made everyone nervous.

Ku Si Lao subconsciously asked:

"How, they're chasing you?"

"No, it's not, the Great Eater is heading in the direction of Mulu City!"

Kuslao slammed his fist on the trunk of the tree, shaking the tree and dropping a few green leaves.

He felt a deep sense of humiliation, the other party did not see himself as an opponent who could fight, this kind of contempt was unacceptable to Kusilao.

"Assemble the army and let Mahdi know that there is a price to be paid for despising my Persian soldiers!"

At this time, Kuth Lao already knew that the commander of the Great Food Army was Mahdi, the favorite son of Caliph al-Mansur, and at first he thought that this was a fool with little ability, but now it seems that he was wrong.

However, there were many wounded soldiers in the woods, and many of them could not get on their horses again to fight in a short time.

Ku Si Lao was very depressed, thought for a while, and resolutely decided to leave the wounded soldiers behind, and he pursued them with soldiers who could fight.

We must not let the Great Food Soldier arrive in Mulu City so easily, they must pay the price they deserve!

Mahdi and soon received a report that the Persian soldiers had reappeared, and he looked at Said beside him, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Said, you are also an enemy like a ghost!"

When Said heard this, he scratched his head uncomfortably.
