Chapter 609: We Are Your Friends
Umar jumped up and saw that there were Persians on three sides, there were hundreds, and all the retreats had been blocked.
He clenched his scimitar and shouted, "Fight for Allah!" The first to pounce on the enemy.
"Fight for Allah!" Like him, the Great Eclipse Rangers chanted jihadist chants and pounced on the enemy.
"Whoosh", the Persians shot crossbow arrows, and many of the Great Food soldiers had already fallen down before they could rush to the enemy, and the rangers, who were originally only more than 40 people, were left with less than 30 people in the blink of an eye.
"Abominable Persians." Umar roared.
With blood-red eyes, Umar struck two incoming crossbow arrows with his scimitar and rushed to the Persian, swinging a spear that pierced him, slashing the scimitar into the shoulder of his enemy, and then slashing another Persian.
The Persians, seeing how brave Umar were, besieged it together under the leadership of an officer. Umar was not afraid at all, and fought with an enemy 10 times his size.
The great cannibals, besieged by the Persians, fell one by one.
Umar had been wounded in many places, and his strength was gradually weakening, and he knew that he was going to die. However, he had no fear, and his eyes even showed a desire for death.
"Finally, I'm going to heaven." Umar said in her heart.
Umar was hit the head, and the moment he lost consciousness, it was strange that he did not have the appearance of heaven in his mind, but the bright smile of the girl by the river as a child.
Then, it was pitch black before his eyes.
When Umar woke up, it was already evening.
When Umar opened his eyes, he saw the familiar faces of his comrades, who looked at him with concern, and smiled in surprise when they saw him wake up.
Umar moved his body for a moment, frowning from the pain, he sat up with the help of his comrades, and after examining the wound, he found that the injury on his body was not serious, and the drowsiness on his head was caused by being hit by a heavy object.
Soon, Umar saw his situation clearly, and he was imprisoned in a filthy cell with six of his captured comrades.
"Water." Umar was thirsty, and he couldn't help but moan.
There is no water.
An older soldier came to the door of the cell, banged the iron door, and shouted: "Water, someone wants to drink." ”
After a long time, a hoarse voice, speaking in half-baked Arabic, scolded: "Damn it, I'll send you to the guillotine tomorrow, what kind of water do you drink?" ”
Night fell, and the moonlight shone through the narrow windows of the high walls of the cell.
The silence in the prison was dreary.
"Woo-woo", a 15-year-old soldier cried. He was not afraid of the battle with the enemy yesterday, but in the dead of night, he began to miss his kind mother, who was far away from home.
Under his influence, the other warriors were also silent, thinking about their own thoughts.
Umar didn't rebuke them, he had already experienced too much life and death to understand their feelings. He has lost his parents since he was a child, and there is nothing to be nostalgic for, and the girl's smile is the only thing he thinks about in this world.
The next morning, the heavy iron doors of the prison were pushed open, and a group of Persian soldiers entered, who bound Umar and the others and escorted them to the execution ground in the courtyard.
On the execution platform, Umar cried out: "Do not be afraid, fight for Allah and die a well-deserved death." Allah is watching us from Heaven!"
"Fight for Allah!"
"Fight for Allah!"
The soldiers of the Great Food also shouted after him, knowing that they were going to die, and they held their heads high one by one, looking at death as if they were home.
The Persian soldiers violently pushed them to the ground, and behind them stood a strong executioner.
A Persian officer shouted: "Prepare for execution." With that, he raised his right hand high.
The executioners raised their heavy scimitars in both hands and waited for the officer to give the signal for execution.
Umar closed his eyes, and his heart was full of anticipation, he didn't know if he would meet that lovely girl in heaven.
"Stop the execution!"
Just then, someone shouted. Then, the sound of a large group of people running.
Umar looked up and saw an officer of the Persian Iron Guard, with a brigade of Don officers and soldiers rushing over.
The officer of the Iron Guard said something to the prison officials, who motioned for his men to leave the execution table.
Then, the Tang soldiers came over to pick up Uma'er and the others and untied the ropes that bound them.
A Tang Army officer said a few words, and an interpreter beside him said: "Don't be afraid, we are here to save you." ”
Then, Umaer and the others were helped into the carriage and sent to an independent compound in a barracks guarded by the Tang Army.
In a tidy room, a group of Tang Army medical staff treated the wounds of Umar and the others, and served them a meal unique to the Arabs. Throughout the process, the Tang Dynasty people were very friendly to them.
Umar didn't know why these Tang Dynasty people were so kind to themselves, in his mind, since these Tang Dynasty people appeared in the Persian city, they should be in the same group as the Persians, that is, their enemies of cannibalism.
He asked warily, "What do you want to do?" ”
The Tang soldiers and medical personnel could not understand what he was saying, and the Tang officer who rescued them said something to them with a smile on his face.
The interpreter translated: "We Tang Dynasty people are your friends who are big cannibals, don't think so much, take care of your injuries first." ”
In the next few days, Umaer and others were carefully cared for by Tang Jun's medical staff. They were not held and could move freely around the courtyard, but they were not allowed to leave the courtyard.
The Tang Army officer who was in charge of taking care of them was called Hao Junjie, a guard of the Qi Palace, and when he was fine, he went to the room of Wu Ma'er and the others to chat with them.
Seeing that the people of the Tang Dynasty were really good to them, Wu Ma'er and the others gradually became familiar with Hao Junjie. They were curious about the Tang Dynasty, and Hao Junjie took the opportunity to show off to them how powerful and rich the Tang Dynasty was.
Except for Wu Ma'er, most of the other soldiers had never been to a big city, and they were all shocked by the prosperity of Chang'an described by Hao Junjie. Umar had been to the metropolis of Damascus, but he felt that Damascus was still slightly inferior to Chang'an.
At this moment, Uma'er was thinking that if he went to Chang'an in the future, he would definitely make a fortune.
However, he quickly dismissed the idea.
The courtyard where Wu Ma'er and the others lived, outside was the training ground, and they could hear the Tang Army training outside every day. As a ranger in charge of reconnaissance missions, Umaer was curious and wanted to know about the combat effectiveness of the Tang army.
On this day, Uma'er tentatively proposed to Hao Junjie that he wanted to visit the Tang Army's drills. When he said this request, he didn't have much hope, the drill of the Tang Army was a military secret, and it was normal for them not to be allowed to visit.
Unexpectedly, Hao Junjie readily agreed to their request. He said: "The Tang Dynasty and the Great Cannibal are friends, and you are welcome to visit the Tang Army's drills. ”
After speaking, Hao Junjie accompanied Wu Ma'er and the others out of the courtyard. I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
