Chapter 7: A Destined Opponent

The translator told Mosley Massa the original version of Pei Min's words.

Mosley Massa listened to the translator's words, looked at Pei Min with burning eyes, grinned, and opened his arms enthusiastically.

Mosley Massa has been in charge of the war between the West and the North, leading the Lions on the Asian, European and African battlefields.

During these years, he invaded the Indus Valley, conquered the large and small states in the northwestern part of the Indian subcontinent, and also directed the Byzantine Empire to eliminate the last Byzantine Empire garrison in northern Africa, and occupied vast lands from Tunisia to Morocco. He even crossed the Strait of Gibraltar on an expedition to Spain and conquered the Visigothic kingdom.

He roamed the frontier for 20 years, but did not use troops to the east, which in their opinion was barren and poor, and not worthy of vigorous development.

And there is no doubt that there are two powerful countries in the east, the Tang Dynasty and the Tibetans, and it makes little sense to fight with the Tang Dynasty and the Tibetan countries for the sake of the land that is not rich.

Therefore, when the Arab Empire reached the Pamirs in the east, it was stagnant and devoted its military focus to the western theater.

However, with the rise of the Tang Dynasty, Omar II, the ruler of the Arab Empire, found that his father, Suleiman, had made a foolish decision.

Whether the Western Regions are rich or not depends not on the Western Regions themselves, but on the Tang Dynasty in the East.

The Tang Dynasty rose to become rich and powerful, the trade routes of the Western Regions were smooth, and the Western Regions also followed the prosperity and strength, once the Tang Dynasty fell to the bottom, the Western Regions also declined.

In the face of the economic effect driven by the Silk Road, the Western Regions, where birds do not poop and dogs do not lay eggs, can become fragrant in an instant, and everyone loves the place where wealth is transferred.

The national policy of the Arab Empire was to advance westward, with the elimination of Byzantium and the capture of Constantinople.

The military forces deployed in the east are the weakest, resulting in the inability of the eastern battlefield to compete for the Western Regions.

In the face of the Tang Dynasty's capital in the Western Regions and the military power of the Zhaowu Nine Kingdoms, the Arab Empire not only did not take advantage, but suffered several defeats.

With the prosperity of the Silk Road, Umar II increasingly felt the need to develop in the East, and began to buy and win over the Western Regions, and intended to transfer his younger brother Mosley Massa to the Eastern Battlefield.

The main purpose of letting Mosley Massa envoy to Datang this time is naturally to trade, hoping to deepen the exchanges between the two countries to achieve a win-win situation. Promote the economies of both countries and restore the effects of the destruction of the Arab armies as soon as possible.

Secondly, it did not let Mosley Massa further understand the heart of the Tang Dynasty.

Know yourself and your opponent and prepare for future expeditions.

Moslemassa may not have understood the deep meaning of Omar II, but he was a belligerent and warlike by nature, and a fanatical combatant. Knowing that his brother was willing to transfer him from the battlefield in the West to the East, he also did some research on the military strength of the Eastern countries.

knows that the two commanders who can play the most in Datang, one is the veteran Xue Ne, and the other is the young rising star Pei Min.

Mosley Massa doesn't care too much about these two, defeating the opponent and ravaging the opponent is his pleasure, and the stronger the opponent, the more exciting and exciting his blood is.

It wasn't until this time when he came all the way east, passing through the Wusheling Mountain Road, that Mosley Massa was shocked by Pei Min's masterpiece.

The grim terrain, the terrible environment of the snowfall in August, someone actually forced a mountain road to open.

This ability is as shocking as the first time Mosley Massa saw the pyramids when he first came to Egypt, which is why he said "the man who created the magic" before.

The more people like this, the more Mosley Massa looks forward to fighting with them.

Along the way, Mosley Massa's interest in Pei Min is far better than Li Longji.

When passing through Longshan Road, seeing that Pei Min's guards numbered only more than eighty people, in the face of their swarming, not only did they not have any nervousness and panic, but made the current appearance of the enemy, but calmly set up a formation, as long as they showed the slightest hostility, they could immediately enter the battle state, showing extraordinary military quality.

Without the baptism of the battlefield and the rigorous training, ordinary guards simply cannot do this.

This guard must have come from the Hundred Battles Division, and Mosley Massa saw that the leader was an exceptionally young man, so he guessed his identity and guessed it.

For this reason, Mosley Massa even forgot his origin and made an appointment with Pei Min to fight.

Among Pei Min's several wishes to come to this world, one of them is to change history and lead the Tang Dynasty to victory in the collision of the two strongest countries in the East and the West.

Naturally, his response would not show any weakness.

This is also the right taste of Mosley Massa, and I am looking forward to the future battle even more.

For Mosley Massa's enthusiasm, Pei Min also opened his arms and completed a man's hug with him with a little sympathy.

"I'm also going to Chang'an, okay all the way?"

Pei Min extended an invitation to Mosley Massa.

Mosley Massa learned what he meant from the translator's mouth and readily agreed.

The teams of the two were mixed together, and they looked particularly powerful.

Pei Mu also saw enough of the situation in Longyoudao, returned to the carriage, and went to Chang'an together.

Mosley Massa praised the magnificence of Longyou Dao in his mouth, and kept saying: "Only a miracle can open this Longshan, and only a miracle can conquer Wusheling Mountain." General Pei is worthy of being the chosen figure of Allah, the true God, and only the power bestowed by the gods can do this. ”

He seems to be reckless, but in fact, he is listening to the situation of black powder.

Pei Min naturally did not divulge the situation of black powder, and casually perfunctory, but asked about the offensive and defensive battle of "Constantinople".

Pei Min already knew about that fierce battle from the Byzantine merchants.

But for the mysterious Greek fire, Pei Min still doesn't know much about it, full of curiosity, the only thing that is certain is that Greek fire is indeed a weapon of water warfare, even in that disadvantageous situation, Byzantium can still rely on Greek fire to turn the situation around, which shows the power of Greek fire. If it weren't for the early appearance of black powder, it would not be an exaggeration to call it the first chemical weapon.

Thinking of the foreshadowing laid at the beginning, I can't help but think secretly, and I don't know if the profiteer is attentive.

After all these years, if it weren't for the Greek fire's renewed might, he would have almost forgotten about it.

I don't think there is any progress, otherwise with the character of a profiteer, I would have come to him to receive a reward. Not now, when he can't even remember the other party's name, there is no news.

Mosley Massa patted his chest proudly and said: "If you want to see Roman fire, it's not simple?" As long as you help me blow up the walls of Constantinople, how much Roman fire you want, how much Roman fire you want. ”

There is no doubt that Moslemassa, a lion from the West, has already been the first to recognize the magic of black powder.

Subvert the city walls!

If the city of Constantinople was bombarded with black powder, the Byzantine Empire would surely be destroyed.

Pei Min was of course indifferent, and he was not moved by how Mosley Massa lured.

Mosley Massa was helpless and did not dwell on this matter.

Despite being separated by an interpreter, the two chatted with each other very happily all the way.

They both clearly understand in their hearts that they are destined to be rivals in this life, and it is impossible to become friends! 8)
