Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Savior of the Western Regions

Upper Kabul River, West Bank.

Mosley Massa looked at the raging flames in front of him and took a deep breath, not thinking about this annoying failure.

If you continue to fight, Mosley Massa may not have a chance to turn defeat into victory, but if you really want to fight the lion army in your hands, why should you compete with Pei Min next?

Besides, that guy......

Mosley Massa is rampant in the world, and he doesn't know how to write the word "afraid" in his life, but now when he thinks of Pei Min, he can't help but shudder, and he is a little stunned in his heart, since he has faced him, he has not taken any advantage.

Originally, he also planned to lure the enemy deep and use their Arab pirated "Greek fire" to teach the Tang army a lesson, and by the way, save a fortune.

But he didn't want the Tang army to pursue it in a very orderly manner, and in addition to causing the greatest casualties, he would never be greedy, and he would stop in moderation.

Mosley Massa also realized that his strategy was not working, and the five war elephants transporting black oil were now prisoners of the Tang army, and they were not easy to transport back.

simply set a fire and completely blocked the Tang army's pursuit reason, so that he could retreat calmly.

At the same time, on the opposite side of the flames, Feng Changqing looked at the sky-high flames blocking the way in front of him, and he was also afraid for a while, and couldn't help but say secretly: Fortunately, Pei Shuai reminded him that he also kept an extra eye, if he really didn't pay attention to these things on the ground, he was afraid that he would be buried in the fire.

That night, Pei Min walked out of the medical tent, looked at the starry sky, and let out a long breath of turbidity.

In this battle, they won, but they also paid a certain price.

Two generals at the level of military envoys alone were killed and one was seriously wounded, Wang Hu on the left and Zhang Jingshun on the right were killed one after another.

Wang Hu died at the hands of Yahan, Pei Min saw it with his own eyes, but Zhang Jingshun was shot by a stray arrow when Pei Min went to deal with the war elephants, and Mosley Massa was unfortunate when he attacked the right wing of the Tang army.

As for the seriously injured person, it was the Broken Tiger Chen.

When he used the Wheel Quest to gain an advantage, he encountered the Sassanid Ironclad Heavy Cavalry of Isolus.

Folded Tiger and Isilus met in battle.

Folded Tiger slashed at Ishluth's shoulder, and Iselus rubbed a shot in Folded Tiger's waist.

The two fought and lost both.

It is not clear how heavy Isilus's injuries were, but Zhen Huchen's back injury was not three months, and he couldn't even get out of bed.

The only thing worth being happy about is Li Siye, Li Siye is already sober, but he can't move.

However, the doctor in the army said that Li Siye was fine, but his energy was excessively consumed, and he could be relieved as long as he had a good rest.

Pei Min knows some reasons, and in the knowledge of later generations, the human body has many small nerve fibers. If a person exercises too much, the nerve fibers will break, causing local pain and even injury.

The human body cells have the function of memory regeneration, and this kind of injury can be healed by itself.

And through continuous self-healing, the nerve fibers will become tougher and tougher, which is why the more you exercise, the stronger you get.

With Li Siye's monster-like physique, it shouldn't take long to recover.

As for the patients with minor injuries, there are countless of them.

This kind of fierce and tragic battle, the battle on the front line, if there is not a single injury on the body, I am embarrassed to say it.

After two days of sorting, Zhang Xiaosong, who was in charge of cleaning up the battlefield, drew up a list of the results of cleaning up the battlefield and handed it to Pei Min.

Pei Min had already been mentally prepared, but looking at the list of battle reports in his hand, he couldn't help but gasp.

According to statistics, there were as many as 12,300 corpses of Arab soldiers left on the battlefield, which is the actual number of casualties, not including serious and minor injuries.

The Tang army also lost 7,583 soldiers, and tens of thousands of patients were seriously wounded and lightly wounded.

Pei Min has fought a battle for so many years, and in terms of tragedy, today's battle is the worst.

Two generals were lost in a row, nearly 50,000 soldiers, and more than 20,000 casualties, and the battle damage alone was more than 7,000.

Of course, the Arab price is even greater, and it would be nice if half of the 50,000 soldiers could return to Peshawar.

As for the loss of the generals, a peerless Lux Ahan, a hard-working Napman, and the pioneer Gabit, as for the rank of school officer, it is obviously better than the Tang Dynasty.

Overall, a victory without a doubt.

This victory also established Pei Min's supremacy in the Western Regions.

The territory of Arabia is too vast and too powerful.

They swept through Tianzhu with a devastating posture, making the countries of the Western Regions realize the horror of this Western power.

On the surface, no one from the countries said anything, but in their hearts, they knew very well that if there was no Tang Dynasty, the fate of more than a dozen countries in the Western Regions would not be any better than Tianzhu.

At the same time, the core of the Tang Dynasty was always China, not the Western Regions.

The countries of the Western Regions were not sure if the Tang Dynasty would give up on them as Wu Zetian did when he gave up on the Western Regions, and they could not worry in their hearts.

Pei Min's arrival gave them and a heart booster, but it was not enough.

Until today, Pei Min has won the Arab victory and defeated the invincible Lion King who swept the West, and the situation is completely different.

Before Pei Min came to Anxi's aid, he had already left a deep impression on the hearts of the kings of the Western Regions.

Now when he comes again, he is not only a veritable king of the Western Regions, but also relies on his own strength on the battlefield, his prestige has instantly increased by several notches, and he has become the savior in the hearts of the countries of the Western Regions.

Under Li Linfu's operation, the kings of all the countries in the Western Regions gathered in Hexina City, intending to celebrate Pei Min's achievements.

Pei Min didn't like this kind of occasion, but he also knew that he had to go to this celebration banquet.

Today's battle is just an appetizer, and the next long tug-of-war is the highlight.

Pei Min was not stupid enough to resist all the pressure by himself, while the countries of the Western Regions were watching the drama in the rear.

The countries of the Western Regions must send troops to help.

Li Linfu relied on his talent, with the help of Pei Min's tiger skin, as a guest in the Western Regions, traveling back and forth, not to mention the lot of money he earned, but also narrowed the relationship between the countries and the Tang Dynasty, this banquet was the result of Li Linfu's single-handedness.

On the surface, it was a celebration banquet, but in fact it was a sign of loyalty to the Tang Dynasty.

If Pei Min wants to control the armies of the countries in the Western Regions, he must first accept their loyalty.

Even insincere loyalty is a good thing.

As long as they keep their army in hand, everything doesn't matter.

As always, the main power of General Pei Min was handed over to Feng Changqing, and Zhang Xiaosong and Cui Xiyi were ordered to assist.

In his absence, Feng Changqing was honored, Zhang Xiaosong and Cui Xiyi were deputies, and he was responsible for the defense of the entire Kabul River.

"According to my reckoning, the lion will never come again. But don't be careless, maybe that guy's brain is convulsive again. In short, no matter what, he can't be given a chance. ”

Before leaving, Pei Min specially told Feng Changqing, and at the same time took away Gao Xianzhi, who had not performed at all, and took him to the banquet.
