On the 14th day of February in the first year of the dew, the time was approaching, and the sky was gradually darkening, except for the last ray of sunlight that burst out from the other side of the mountain, rendering the clouds on the horizon as red as blood, and the birds and finches that had been making a lot of noise for a day had all returned to their nests, but the great food rangers who were patrolling the Buha River still did not dare to relax in the slightest, and a group of people galloped back and forth on the bank of the river, and their eyes were always vigilant and looking at the other side.

"Boom ......"

The vigilance of the Great Eclipse Sentinels was indeed not unreasonable, and just as the colorful glow on the horizon was gradually thickening, a large puff of smoke and dust suddenly rolled up in the distant sky on the other side of the river, and in an instant, a tight sound of horses' hooves became louder and closer, and the posture was obviously a sign that the army was rushing frantically.

"Light the wolf smoke, quick, light the wolf smoke!"

This big food ranger set off from Xiye City, drove for three days and three nights, and traveled hundreds of miles all the way, in order to wait for the arrival of **, at this time, when I saw the smoke and dust billowing up, I didn't dare to have the slightest slackness, even if I knew that across the surging Buha River, ** couldn't rush straight over, but a group of big food cavalry still nervously all gathered together, until an officer led by the roar gave an order, which was like waking up from a dream, and set fire to the grass that had been piled up long ago. The haystack mixed with wolf dung instantly burned into the sky, and the billowing black smoke rose into the air, heading straight out of the clouds.

"Great Emir, look, the wolf smoke is rising!"

Together with the wolf smoke at the mouth of the old river, the many beacon fires that were on standby along the way were ignited, and after a while, some of the sharp-eyed people in the army of Dashi Bukhara, who were hurrying away, saw it and shouted at the time.

"Huh?"

As soon as he heard the wolf smoke rising, Mua Via Umar, the governor of the northern provinces, who was riding his horse, suddenly raised his head, his eyes were as sharp as knives at the wolf smoke billowing in the distance, and his heart was in a hurry, and he hurriedly shouted: "Quick, send a letter to His Excellency the Crown Prince, ordering the troops to speed up, and be sure to rush to the mouth of the old river before the time comes!" ”

'Woo, woo, woo......"

As soon as Mu'a Via 'Umar's order was given, the guards who were waiting on his side hurriedly untied the eagle cage tied to the saddle, opened the cage door with his hands and feet, and took out the goshawk perched in it, and with a strong lift, the goshawk was already soaring into the air, and after a slight circle over the army, it flew westward, and at the same time, the horn sounded violently, and the speed of the Great Food Army's already fast march suddenly became a little faster, and hundreds of thousands of horsemen rushed together, rolling up the sky like a dragon......

On the fifteenth day of February in the first year of Tiaolu, the sun just jumped out of the horizon, the golden light dispelled the mist on the desert, but it did not appear hot, the breeze was light, it was the most pleasant time of the day, usually at such times, the Ninishi was always in the back garden to stretch his muscles and bones, not to dance a few punches and feet, or to enjoy the flowers, not to mention how leisurely, but today's Ninishi is obviously not so leisurely, the sky has not yet dawned on the city, and the armor is very bright, But it was difficult to hide the deep melancholy on his face, even if he had deliberately tightened his face, but he could not avoid the panic in his heart, all because the more than 230,000 people of the Great Food Army swept towards Persepolis like an angry wave!

Defend is definitely not able to hold, even if the Nini Division has exhausted the last trace of strength, it is finally a hundred thousand people gathered in the city, the problem is that these 100,000 soldiers and horses in addition to more than 30,000 regular troops barely have some combat strength, the rest are just hastily gathered herdsmen, not to mention the field battle, it is purely to send to death, even if it is used to defend the city, the Nini Division is not very optimistic, at most it can only be used as a people's strong to assist in the defense, there is no doubt that as long as the big food army launches a strong attack, This capital city will not last for more than ten days before it will be broken, and as for the promise on the other side, the Ninirvana Master doesn't know whether to believe it or not.

"Woo, woo, woo......"

At the moment when the Ninishi was distracted, a terrible horn suddenly sounded wildly, and instantly the Ninishi woke up from his reverie, and when he raised his eyes, a tall sand beam in the distance suddenly rose from smoke and dust, first the earth shook slightly, and then, even the city wall began to shake, and the horn sounded in a hurry, and countless iron horsemen rushed out from behind the sand beam, and the black battle flags were waving in the wind, and it was the Great Food Army that had arrived!

"Go to the city, prepare for war, prepare for war!"

Seeing the big food cavalry surging like a tide, Ninishi first had a sore heart palpitation, but soon came back to his senses, pulled out the scimitar at his waist, raised it obliquely above his head, and roared and issued an order to prepare for war, and in an instant, the city was in chaos, and countless soldiers who were ordered to guard rushed from the urn city to the city, under the forest of swords and guns, it was also quite imposing, but the eyes of the vast majority of soldiers flashed not the light of warthirst but endless worry and tension.

Nervous and nervous, worried and worried, but it was all in vain, the surging cavalry didn't pay attention to the mood of the city soldiers, rushed by, went around the city, the rolling army never stopped, let alone cared whether the defenders in the city would go out of the city to intercept, so they walked around the city with great force, and rushed straight to the east, only more than 20,000 cavalry troops finally stayed under the city, and did not launch a siege, and even the guard post did not send much, The garrison was immediately set up under the noses of the defenders, and there was no doubt that this army was stationed under the city for only one purpose, and that was to monitor the movements of the defenders in the city.

"It's really not a siege, it's true......"

Ni Nishi was nervous for most of the day, until the main force of the Great Food Army had passed, and his tense nerves relaxed a little, and he was shocked to realize that he was already sweating profusely, but he didn't care about wiping it, just kept muttering......

"Command the departments, speed up, and rush to the old estuary!"

Compared with the nervousness of the Nirvana, Yazid ibn Abu is extremely anxious, even if the speed of the army is already very fast, but he is very dissatisfied - since yesterday after receiving the eagle message from Mu'a Vya 'Umar, Yazid ibn Abu's mood has never calmed down, not for anything else, just because the Great Food Empire has put all the prospects of the empire on this battle, once it is ** broken through the Buha River natural danger, the consequences are self-evidently serious, The Great Food Empire, which had already suffered a heavy setback, could no longer withstand the wrath of the Tang Prince, and this battle was not only that the Great Food Empire had no way out, but also that Yezid ibn Abu himself did not, so as soon as he saw that his army had slowed down slightly since bypassing Persepolis, he was already impatient to order the armies to speed up again.

"Woo, woo, woo......"

At the command of Yazid ibn Abu, the trumpeter who followed him sounded the battle horn, and the great food army, which was already galloping on horseback, rushed wildly in an instant, and more than 200,000 horsemen stirred up dust in the desert like angry waves......

On February 16 of the first year of Tiaolu, noon was approaching, the scorching sun was in the sky, the sky was so hot that it was like a fire, there was not even a trace of breeze, it was so stuffy that it was breathless, in such weather, not to mention hurrying, it was to hide in the shade, and it was also about to sweat profusely, but the big food army set out from the city of Bukhara did not have the slightest intention of stopping to rest and recuperate, braving the scorching sun, riding horses and galloping more than once, which has been driven for two days and one night, the big food army whether it is a soldier or a general, has been tired to the extreme, The 100,000-strong cavalry was dragged into a sparse long serpentine formation for nearly ten miles, which naturally did not satisfy the main commander Muhan Ali Kenyan.

"Order, all departments speed up, you must rush to Tianhuang Mountain today!"

Muhan Ali Kenyan was over half a hundred years old, and he was tired enough to choke after two days of such a journey, but he did not dare to give the order to rest, not for anything else, but because the crown prince Yazid ibn Abu had been ordered several times to rush to the area of the old estuary by noon tomorrow, and now, the army was still more than 100 miles away from the old estuary, and according to the current footsteps, it would not be able to catch up with the land. Abu is not a good talker, Muhan Ali Kenyan does not want to use his neck to test whether the butcher's knife in the crown prince's hand is sharp, and he is anxious, even his own exhaustion is ignored, and how can he care about the life and death of his subordinates, the horsewhip pointed at the barren mountain at the end of the world, and almost roared and gave the order.

"Great Emir, it's too hot this day, if you continue to rush like this, even if you barely reach the ground, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have combat strength at all, can you rest first before leaving."

The adjutant general, Esmir Weah Bayan, was more cautious by nature, and he was over sixty years old, and his physical condition was no longer as brave as he was in the past, and he was already at the end of his crossbow.

"Well...... order, the troops will rest in place for half an hour, and after using up the dry food, then hurry on!"

Esmir Weah Bayan is not only the son and daughter of Muhan Ali Kenyan, but also his deputy for many years, since he opened his mouth, Muhan Ali Kenyan naturally did not refute his face in public, and then looked at the generals of the personal guards beside him were also mostly frightened, even if Muhan Ali Kenyan was anxious, he had to change the original order in a deep groan, and in the midst of a loud trumpet, the Great Food Army, which was originally tired of moving forward, immediately stopped on the spot, drinking horses and horses, eating meals, the whole team became a mess, This chaos is not tight, but it makes the Tang cavalry army ambushed everywhere a little embarrassed......
