In the whole of Persian County, the contrast between before and after is too great. The other towns in Persian County, without the slightest resistance, chose to surrender.

The city of Persia, on the other hand, is stubbornly resisting.

Moreover, the strength displayed by Persian City made Khalid feel panicked.

Khalid could judge from the intelligence that the defenders of Persian City were about 50,000.

And the defense of Persian City can be said to be leaky.

Their weapons are sharper than theirs.

If they wanted to take Persian City, they would have to pay at least three times as many casualties.

And Persian City was just the first city they encountered when they attacked the Tang Dynasty.

If the first city needs to pay such a big price to take it, then how can the later cities be fought?

However, if they don't take Persian City, they can't continue to attack those cities behind the Tang Dynasty!

In the city of Persia, there are at least 50,000 Tang troops, and this is the nail behind them.

What Khalid never expected was that he had just set out on the expedition when he was blocked by a Persian city.

In the end, Khalid decided that Persian City must be taken.

Otherwise, don't think about attacking Datang, let's wash and sleep, what should I do.

Next, they intensified their siege of the Persian city.

At the same time, the river leading to the city of Persia was cut off.

At this time, the water in the Persian city basically relied on this river around the city.

If the river is cut off, there will be a shortage of water in the city of Persia for a month at most.

When the time came, the city of Persia would be defeated.

Of course, this method takes a bit of time.

But for Khalid, there is no way around it.

They have launched a war of aggression against the Tang Dynasty, and they are bound to win the city of Persia.

At the same time, they are not willing to pay too much price, so they can only take this way.

Now, they are only looking forward to the reinforcements of Datang, and it will take at least three months or more to arrive.

According to Khalid's judgment, it would take at least ten days from their attack on Persian City to the time the Tang Dynasty got the news.

Then, by the time they respond, gather food and grass, and send out reinforcements, it will take at least one to two months, right?

It will take at least three months for reinforcements to arrive.

This is still under the condition that the roads of Datang are unblocked.

If you change to before, this cycle may have to be extended to half a year.

Three months was enough time for them to take Persia and move on.

Two days later, the other two armies attacking the Great Anxi Protectorate passed the news back.

They encountered a situation similar to that of Khalid, and the small towns all chose to surrender without resistance.

And, everybody is trying to cooperate with them.

And they had all been ordered by Khalid beforehand.

You must not slaughter prisoners, nor disturb the people.

In the face of this situation, the army of the invading Arab Empire actually had nothing to do with those Tang people.

This is probably the weirdest thing they have ever encountered, right?

However, in front of the first big city they encountered, they all fell on their heels.

These cities all got the news in advance and took precautions.

After making a tentative attack, they were all met with fierce resistance, and after leaving thousands of corpses behind, they evacuated in disarray.

Next, the generals of these two armies asked Khalid for instructions.

Khalid, on the other hand, was lost in thought.

Khalid always had a bad feeling.

It seems that those small towns surrendered without resistance, all of which were instructed by the Tang Dynasty.

Their goal is to minimize casualties as much as possible.

And those big cities, the resistance is so tenacious and resolute.

It seems that they have confidence in their hearts that reinforcements will arrive soon.

Although this does not correspond to Khalid's inference.

In Khalid's reasoning, it was impossible for Datang to get the news so quickly and give instructions.

But the current situation seems to show that this inference should be true.

However, their Arab empire had already opened its bow at this time and had no turning back.

Don't do it, don't do it!

Since it's offensive, let's just be wilder!

So, Khalid gave the order to attack with all his might.

And Khalid himself also launched a wave of strong attacks on the city of Persia.

Countless Arab soldiers, pushing siege equipment, began a full-scale attack on the city of Persia.

On the walls of the Persian city, the general who defended was called Zhou Cheng.

Among the many generals in the Tang Dynasty, this person is not very famous.

However, this person was selected by Qin Qiong and stayed in Persian County.

Now, General Qin Qiongqin has traveled west with a crane.

And Zhou Cheng is still silently waiting in Persian County.

This time, the time to test him has come.

In the face of the frantic attack of the Arab Empire, Zhou Cheng personally appeared on the city wall and commanded in an orderly manner.

On the city wall, the repeating crossbow is used to break the armor.

These crossbow arrows, which do not require human operation, can be fired in bursts.

Moreover, the crossbow body is alloyed, which can pierce armor.

In front of the armor-piercing crossbow, not to mention the armor on the Arab soldiers.

Even the thick and heavy shields they held in their hands did not have the slightest effect.

An armor-piercing crossbow shoots out, and even the shield and the person will be ruthlessly pierced.

Under the city wall, the corpses of Arab soldiers were left behind, and blood flowed everywhere, staining a piece of land around the city wall dark red.

A disgusting smell of blood, which filled the air.

A full 100,000 Arab soldiers, but it took a whole hour to get even half a step close to the city wall.

On the ground, there were 5,000 corpses.

The defense of Persian City simply made those soldiers of the Arab Empire feel desperate.

In an hour, 5,000 corpses were left!

Wouldn't they throw in 50,000 corpses in one day?

The people they went out this time were only 600,000 people?

How many days is it to die?

But the good news is that there don't seem to be many such armor-piercing crossbows on the heads of Persian cities.

Just when Khalid frowned, ready to withdraw the army, avoid unnecessary casualties, and prepare to find another way.

But he suddenly found that the armor-piercing crossbow on the city wall had stopped shooting.

It seems that their armor-piercing crossbow has been used up.

This discovery made Khalid's eyes light up.

Great, that's great!

The armor-piercing crossbow is gone, and it's a great time to break the city!

Thinking of this, Khalid no longer hesitated, and immediately commanded his soldiers and intensified the siege of the city.

And the next siege battle fell into anxiety.

The means of counterattack on the city of Persia are full of tricks.

It always inflicts heavy losses on the soldiers of the Arab Empire.

However, they will still have too few people.

The besieging soldiers, step by step, had approached the city walls from the moat.

Now the ladder has been erected, and the soldiers on the ladder are brave and tenacious, and they are about to enter the city wall.

Despite the great sacrifice, Khalid's eyes were full of excitement when he saw this scene.

This Persian city was the first stop on their Arab Empire's expedition.

Even if it costs something, as long as you can take it down, it's all worth it.

They are Arab warriors, brave and good at fighting.

As long as you can step on the enemy's walls, there is not a single time that you can't break the city.

Now, their warriors are about to set foot on the city walls, and it is believed that it will not be long before they can take the city of Persia in one fell swoop.

However, at this moment, the scene suddenly changed.

The Tang army on the city wall suddenly held up some kind of strangely shaped vessel that they had never seen before.

Then he rushed to the ladder below, spewing fierce flames.

Blazing flames, mercilessly burning the ladder.

The Arab soldiers on the ladder fell screaming under the flames.

The smell of burnt smell permeated the air.

Even the ladder began to melt quietly under the scorching flames.

The Arab Empire, the original fierce and abnormal siege momentum, couldn't help but be slowed down.

Khalid, who was watching the battle, couldn't help frowning tightly.

How many secret hole cards are there in this Persian city?

In every critical moment, they can always come up with new hole cards and save the day.

This time, they came up with this fire-breathing vessel.

Until they can find a solution, they can only fill it with human lives.

However, they have already paid too many lives at this point.

Khalid hesitated for a moment, and then immediately made the decision to withdraw his troops.

But at this moment, Khalid found that the flames spewed out by those vessels were slowly weakening until they were extinguished.

It turned out that these fire-breathing vessels could not keep breathing fire for a long time.

Come to think of it, if they can breathe fire for a long time, then wouldn't they be invincible?

Now is the time when Persia is at its weakest!

Khalid immediately ordered his soldiers to continue the attack.

……

For an entire day, the Arab Empire failed to take Persian City.

Even, it did not wait for the walls of the Persian city.

The defense of the city of Persia was too tenacious.

Whenever the soldiers of the Arab Empire were about to step on their walls, they always had their hole cards to show.

It can change the passive situation in an instant.

But this kind of hole card does not last.

Each time, it gave the Arab Empire great hope, and in the end, this hope will be ruthlessly wiped out.

In the evening, when Khalid was reorganizing his army, he suddenly found out.

In one day, they lost more than 10,000 warriors' lives.

Khalid suddenly had a strange feeling.

It seems that the defenders of the city of Persia have been hanging his appetite.

Keep giving him a feeling that he is about to take it down.

But every time, I can't take it down.

The other party is using this way to constantly destroy their living force.

This feeling is ridiculous.

It was only a Persian city, and the garrison was no more than 50,000.

They were able to hold the city, thank God, could they still dare to die like this?

This idea is ridiculous.

Khalid refused to believe that none of this was true.

But for some reason, Khalid always felt that this seemed to be the most correct explanation.

……

At this time, in Chang'an City, in the Imperial Palace, in the Imperial Study.

Tang Emperor Li Ke is having tea with Li Su, the king of China.

Tang Emperor Li Ke couldn't help frowning at this time and asked Li Su: "Sixth brother, the imperial brother has something to understand. ”

"The Great Food Empire raised an army of 600,000 to attack my Tang Dynasty, and this matter is a bit confusing."

"Do they think that this 600,000-strong army can destroy my Tang Dynasty?"

Datang responded to the attack of the Great Food Empire and made various arrangements.

But only the reason for the Great Food Empire's attack on Datang has never been well answered.

The Great Food Empire, as early as more than ten years ago, had already fought with Datang.

That time, he was driven out by the King of Shu with 50,000 soldiers and horses, which can be said to be a fiasco.

More than ten years have passed, and now Datang's national strength has reached a higher level.

And what about the big food?

After a civil strife, the civil strife in the country has just subsided.

The invasion of the Eastern Roman Empire was also hampered by the participation of Huaxia City.

In this case, the Great Food Empire actually raised 600,000 troops to attack the Tang Dynasty?

Is their king in the water in his brain?

Now the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty have been discussing for several days, and it has been difficult for them to find a suitable motive.

And this time, Emperor Tang couldn't help but think of his sixth brother when he was puzzled.

In this world, there seems to be no problem that the sixth brother can't solve.

Therefore, Li Ke couldn't help but call Li Su and asked him about this question.

In fact, Li Su naturally knew about the invasion of the Great Food Empire at the first time.

But why the Great Food Empire wanted to invade the Tang Dynasty, Li Su was also very troubled.

In the end, it can only be attributed to the king of the Great Food Empire, whose head was caught by the door panel.

Of course, now that the imperial brother asked this question, Li Su was naturally embarrassed to say so.

I can only say haha; "Brother Huang, I guess there should be someone who is alarmist in front of the Great Food King, thinking that our Datang is their biggest threat."

"And they probably think that now is the weakest time for me to be the Tang Dynasty, right? If they attack now, they have the greatest chance of success. That's what I think. ”

After hearing Li Su's speculation, Tang Emperor Li Ke nodded thoughtfully.

Don't say it, Li Su guessed a reason, and almost guessed the truth of the matter.

The only thing I didn't guess was probably that he was alarmist, and he was sent by the family.

Of course, now only this reason can barely explain why the Great Food Empire is mad.

Tang Emperor Li Ke asked again: "Sixth brother, this time, what do you think is the best way for us to beat the big food?" ”

Now, Persian City and Da'an Xidu Protectorate, there is news reported every day.

They know everything about the situation over there.

The strength of the Great Food Empire, albeit strong.

But compared with their Datang, they are really not on the same level.

Therefore, what the war will look like depends on Datang.
