The weather in the Western Regions is so weird, it can change. Dunhuang City and Wuwei County are less than 100 miles apart, and there is still the rising sun. But here it is already windy and sandy and cloudy. The king of Persia was a man of great stature like a mountain. He is standing at the head of the city at the moment, like a god who looks down on the earth in ancient Western myths and legends, swallowing clouds and spitting mist.

At least in the eyes of the devout Persians, their great king was such an image.

A person who can have the ambition of a king of kings must have a different path of growth than a mortal. It can be said that his position today is completely based on his own step by step. Every one of his footprints was stained with blood.

Legend has it that when each generation of Persian kings was chosen, they were subjected to brutal survival training from a few years of age. The hardship and cruelty in that are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

This king, who is almost the first step in life among lions and wolves, has the eyes of a beast, the eyes of a goshawk, the power of pulling mountains, and the roar of thunder.

As soon as he was angry, the entire Western Continent would tremble under his feet, and no one would dare to look up. I dare not have casual disobedience. Because he is the executor of the will of God, and he has the aura of a god in his body.

The king of Persia despised everything with contempt. In the short time that the army has entered Wuwei City, this place has already become unrecognizable and no longer what it used to be.

There were no people near and far, and even birds and animals fled hundreds of miles away. The bones and corpses of the dead warriors were piled up everywhere outside the city, and there was no living creature here except for the large crowd of crows that had gathered.

The Persian warriors who died in battle were treated differently, and they were cremated and buried in the earth after the great king himself prayed for his blessings. to wait for the soul to be reborn and to receive the favor of the king of Persia, the ruler of heaven and earth.

And those people from the Western Regions who were slaughtered for various reasons, as well as the soldiers of the Han army who were killed by Persian warriors in the battle during this time, they were all indiscriminately discarded among the yellow sand and barren grass, and let groups of crows peck at them...... until there are no bones left.

In fact, apart from these, it cannot be said that there are no other living creatures outside the city. If on the walls of the city a few feet above the ground, those half-dead who have withstood the sun and wind are also counted.

This row of dozens of large fences made of rough wood is stained with blood. The suffering and torture of the people who were imprisoned in it all the way to this place with the army are simply indescribable.

A quarter of an hour ago, when the groggy Buyano was awakened by the sound of the earth shaking, he reluctantly opened his eyes, and when he saw the armor banner of the Han army that he had seen, he couldn't help but cry out in surprise.

"The army of the Great Han...... How dare they come here alone! This is...... What do you want to do? ”

Despite all these days of suffering, his body was devastated and his voice was weak. But the followers of him heard it anyway. They were all descendants of the Prophets, deeply believing in the existence of great wisdom in the world, even if they were punished for disobeying the will of the king of Persia, and a dozen people had unfortunately died. But they were not discouraged, and resolutely obeyed Buyano's call.

"This is the cavalry of the Han Dynasty? They were here to challenge the majesty of the Persian king...... Aren't you afraid of death? ”

"A few thousand cavalry can have such an atmosphere, and what Mr. Buyano said is indeed not a little exaggerated. The king of Persia was bent on going his own way, and he came from thousands of miles to fight against such an army...... The future of the Persian Empire is unpredictable! ”

Among these people who followed Buyano, there were several military trainees, and some of them didn't believe him when they heard him talk about the strength of the Han army earlier. But at this moment, I saw the thousands of grandiose beneath the rolling clouds from a high place, but I forgot that I was in a cage and a shackle, and they stretched their necks and talked with some shock.

Buyano looked up to the sky and sighed. Although he didn't know what these Han troops were doing when they came to the location of the Persian base camp, there was no doubt that the other party did not come to wander around for no reason. It seems that the date of the decisive battle between the two sides is coming soon!

To this day, in the constant discussions and discussions with these prophetic disciples who followed him, Buyano felt more and more the strength of the Han Dynasty and the terrible military strength of the other side. Even those of them who had the wisdom of the prophet in their hands could not figure out how the Han army used to send their warriors into the sky as a sharp offensive weapon.

And there are those powerful explosives, which are also terrifying. As early as the conquest of the Western continent, the Prophet's disciples taught the Persian army to use the abundant black fire oil as a weapon of war, and the results were very good.

Including this Eastern Crusade, in the initial contact with the army of the Western Regions of the Great Han Dynasty, it was precisely because of the power of black fire oil that they took the Han army by surprise with an absolute advantage, won all the battles, and approached Yumen Pass all the way.

The Han army's use of the huge lethality caused by the explosion and the resulting thunder fire in the Battle of Yumen Pass are definitely related to black fire oil! This is the conclusion that Buiano came to by careful observation as he walked through that battlefield. But what puzzled him was that he didn't know what method to use to make the black fire oil burn and cause such an alarming explosion at the same time.

It was precisely because of the constant discussion of these issues that Buiano and his followers forgot about the predicament they were in and the threat of dying at any moment. For these people, the desire to explore the unknown mysteries of the world is far greater than life itself.

"If it is possible to meet the young commander of the Han army again, I must cherish the opportunity and ask the questions in my heart in detail! It's just a pity...... I'm afraid not, right?"

Buyano muttered to himself. His lips were chapped and desert, and his hair was a mess of withered grass, but that didn't stop his thirst for knowledge and his quest for the ultimate mysteries of the world.

Hearing the sound of a large number of Persian warriors at the head of the city greeting the Persian king, Buyano closed his eyes in some pain. He knew that his hope might never come true. Tyrannical kings, who can sacrifice everything for power, are just tools for him to use. If he refuses to heed his call, the end of his waiting will be tragic. The reason why they are still alive is nothing more than the king's mischievous tricks.

Because the king of Persia once trampled these prophets under his feet and arrogantly said that he wanted them to spare a breath and see with their own eyes how his invincible army trampled the western gate of the Han Empire into powder!

However, Buyano, who was desperate, never imagined that his fate would be completely changed today. Soon, the commander of the Han Dynasty, whom he still wanted to meet, would personally lead his warriors to appear in front of the city.

When the smoke and dust from the iron hooves of the most elite cavalry of the Great Han gradually drifted behind him, and he was finally able to see the outline of this army clearly, the Persian king in worship narrowed his eyes and looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Ha, ha, ha...... This is what you call the powerful cavalry of the Han Dynasty? A horse is a good steed, and armor is a good armor. But how can these Han Chinese compare with our burly and tall Persian warriors? No matter what the purpose of their visit is today, I will let them come and go! ”

The words that the unruly King of Kings said with a smile had earth-shattering power. Several of the generals who were following him immediately fell to their knees, kissed his golden boots, and begged to go into battle immediately.

"Great King! We are willing to lead the soldiers and horses in the city to cut off the heads of the Han generals, and sacrifice them at your feet along with those war horses and armor! ”

Looking at the attitude of these loyal servants, the king of Persia was satisfied. With only a few thousand Han troops, it is not worth using the strength of the entire base camp, just these warriors who follow him in Wuwei City are enough.

"How many men can play?"

"There are 20,000 pro-army warriors in the city. Since the Han army is about 5,000, then we will dispatch with 5,000 cavalry. Great King! Watch for yourself at the top of the castle as your loyal warriors slaughter all your enemies one by one! It is a great honor for us. ”

"Go to war! Kill them all in half an hour. ”

The king of Persia commanded casually. Two of the bravest and most warlike generals rose to the occasion and could not wait to assemble their troops to attack. In the Persian king personally watched the battle, to have a hearty battle, to break the army and sacrifice the future, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Outside Wuwei City, trump card to trump card, the most elite Hu Congqin army around the king of Persia, in such a proud mood, met the imperial blade from the Han Dynasty.

The beacon fire thundered, and the killing machine suddenly started. This confrontation does not need any horns and shouts, when the long sword cadre is raised high, with the weight of the majestic Kunlun Mountain in his eyes to split the earth, this is the supreme power in the world...... Charge! Kill!

The king of Persia is the king of Persia, and he ordered the battle to end within half an hour, as if the opposing Han army must also unconditionally carry out his orders, and sure enough, half an hour is over.

However, this is not the ending he wants, and it is not the victory he wants.

Facing the Persian cavalry who swarmed out of the city to kill, when the general at the front of the Han army roared in the air and sparkled his sword like the sun and the moon, Buyano recognized who he was in the half-empty cage of the city wall. In the time that followed, the prophet's successor witnessed the battle with great clarity.

He ...... Who is he? ”

Someone asked in shock. Even the wisdom of the prophets could not explain how anyone in the world could defy the heavens to such an extent!

"He is Yuan Zhao, the commander of the Han army."

Buiano replied, staring at the battlefield beneath his feet without blinking.

At the same time, the question came from the mouth of the astonished king of Persia. And before the people around him could tell him the answer, there was already a neutral voice outside the city and laughed loudly.

"Are you there, King of Persia? Han Yuan is here, can you wait for a while? ”

Five thousand Wyvern warriors lined up in unison, relining behind him. In front of him, there were Persian warriors and horses, and they were everywhere.
