Chapter 103: What Should Come Will Come

After getting thousands of Damascus scimitars, Li Huaitang was in a good mood. The main cavalry almost each has a sharp scimitar, and in close combat, the combat effectiveness is at least doubled.

The soldiers who had just been given the Damascus scimitar were even more overjoyed. They all know that the sharp weapon in their hands will be a powerful guarantee for their lives and meritorious service.

Happy, Li Huaitang proudly responded to Abu's question: "That's easy." I can get you in touch with the lone army in Samarkand, and when winter comes, you can let them break out and go all the way south. I have prepared grain and grass for them under the city of Beggars, and after they have received it, they will retreat to our present place, and you will receive it here. Winters are bitterly cold and covered with snow. The light cavalry of the Turgish people will never be able to follow and chase without supplies and our Shi Guo can threaten the rear road at any time. ”

"Wait until winter? That would have to be two months. This, what if? ”

Sukhail was the first to express concern.

At this time, Wumeng couldn't help it, walked to Li Huaitang's side, and said in a low voice: "General, do we really want to help the lone army in Samarkand?" But didn't that also help the Turgish? ”

Li Huaitang said in a low voice: "It's okay. Let's get past Mohedagan first. ”

After saying that, he said to Sukhail casually: "If they really can't hold it, it just proves that they are a bunch of rubbish, and it is not worth Mr. Abu's trouble." But I think they should be better than me. What's more, they still have Hellfire in hand. ”

Abu was silent, silently pondering the possibilities. He wasn't worried that Samarkand wouldn't be able to support even winter. What he is thinking about is to break through alone, and he is worried that the raiders will take advantage of the situation to chase after them, and the soldiers who have no morale may not even be as good as sheep. In winter, the bad weather conditions and the lack of food and grass are said to be more dangerous, but with the help of this Shi Guo general, these disadvantages can be offset, but the Tuqi people have these problems. However, what if Shi Guoren is slandering me? It doesn't matter so much, if you don't bet once, the thousands of lonely soldiers will definitely have to be buried in Samarkand sooner or later. It's better to fight while there is still horsepower, and after this winter, you don't need to ask to know that there will definitely be few horses left in the defenders.

It didn't take much effort for Abu to make up his mind, and he raised his head with a resolute look: "Good! Tell us about your conditions? ”

This time, it was Shamuel who gave Li Huaitang the interpreter.

"Half a year's food for 100,000 people, winter clothes for 5,000 people, weapons and equipment for 10,000 people, 100,000 arrows, and 5,000 horses for food. Also, you have to bear the food for the relief of the men and horses who have broken through from Samarkand. ”

When translating, Shamuel was a little reluctant to go, feeling that Li Huaitang was simply a lion's mouth.

is so arrogant.

Abu smiled wryly and looked at Suhail, facing such a cheeky opponent, it was not difficult to understand that he would be smashed on the head by Ashras. If he were Ashras, he might do the same, and he probably did it even harder.

Abu smiled lightly and bargained: "Five hundred horses, a thousand spears, a thousand scimitars, and no arrows." As for food and clothing, you have to buy it with money. Of course, we are willing to provide relief for the grain and grass of the retired army. ”

Li Huaitang listened to Shamuel's interpretation, nodded his fingers, shook his head desperately, and said: "Add 4,000 spears and scimitars, 5,000 pairs of chain mail, and 100,000 arrows, no less." Otherwise, we won't be able to resist the Turgish. Once the city of Qishi is captured, your lone army will be finished. ”

Abu gritted his teeth and said, "A thousand spears and a scimitar, a thousand pairs of chain mail, and ten thousand arrows." But you have to exchange gold and silver for these. ”

Li Huaitang didn't want to waste any more time, as long as he could trade, he would have completed the goal in his mind.

"Okay, you leave Lao Su behind, and be responsible for getting these things done for me, and besides, the defenders in Samarkand also need him to pull the strings."

Regardless of whether Sukhail wanted it or not, after Li Huaitang and Abu high-fived and swore an oath, they sold him by the way.

On the way back to the city of Qishi, Shamuel told Li Huaitang about the origin of the Abbasid family.

It turned out that the vast Umayyad dynasty, under its powerful surface, surged three powerful undercurrents, all of which were strongly opposed to the caliphate in Damascus, all rebels. The Abbasids are one of the most powerful of these forces, and they are uniting the Khorasans with the Shiites, as well as the countless crazy militants, with a call to restore the cult government. Shamuel had heard Abdullah say that the Abbasids would definitely rebel in the future and would be victorious. The forces plotting rebellion are undoubtedly even more short of money.

Li Huaitang immediately regretted it when he heard it, and he knew that he should have slaughtered him again. was deceived by his seemingly honest appearance. Li Huaitang, who shouted that he had missed the opportunity, began to plan how to make up for Abu Abbas.

I don't know that Abu, who has been remembered, shows his integrity.

On the third day after the meeting between the two sides, he sent 500 horses and 1,000 spears and scimitars each to the city of Qishi. At the same time, Da Lizi and Shamur also personally led a large caravan to cross the Wuhu River with a large amount of gold and silver, and arrived at the agreed place of the transaction between the two parties.

The work of the armed courtyard is also progressing very well, tens of thousands of feathered arrows have been made, Gong Goro has also shipped back hundreds of cedar wood, and the production of longbows and crossbows is proceeding as planned.

The days seemed to be peaceful, but the atmosphere of preparation for war was very strong, and everything was in full swing.

Just when Li Huaitang was full of ambition, he should have come as scheduled.

The scouts of the Eagle Riders brought back news from the Moheda cadres that the day before yesterday, the army of the Turks had returned to Bukhara!

Gu Si still did a good job, delaying the Moheda cadres south of Wuhushui for eight days, and the results of the hunt were so fruitful that the Moheda cadres had to return to the division at a speed close to that of the turtle line.

Getting closer and closer to Shi Guo, the frustration of Dadu Mo's defeat has recovered. Although the horse bandits of Shi Guo did not know what to do, in the boundless desert, their chances of survival were almost zero. As long as he returns to Shi Guo, he raises his arms and shouts, and the shadow servants will gather to win the grain, why worry about the big thing?

With infinite longing, Dadu Mo ran to Le Mo He Dagan at the top of his head, and strongly asked to be the vanguard and kill in the city of begging history.

In his thoughts, as long as he relied on the military strength of the Turgian Shi people, it would be an easy matter to conquer Qishi City. Besides, without the slightest achievement, I am afraid it will be difficult to sit firmly in the position of the monarch of Shi Guoguo in the future.

I don't know what Mo Heda Gan ate wrong, as soon as he saw Dadu Mo, he straightened his face, and when he heard Dadu Mo say that he would personally lead the troops to take the city of Qishi, Mo Heda Gan could no longer control his emotions, a leg of mutton in his hand, walked out of a straight line in the air, leaving a fragrant smell where he passed, and was unfortunately stopped on Dadu Mo's face, with resentment, and fell to the ground unwillingly.

The greasy and silty made Dadu Mo's expression even more embarrassed, and Dadu Mo, who was kneeling on the ground, shouted "forgiveness" in horror.

"With you as a waste, you can still take the city of beggars. So what am I? Am I not even as good as you? ”

Mo Hedagan's drunkenness came to his head, and he lifted his scars without the slightest taboo.

"You stupid donkey, if it weren't for your incompetence, I would have lost so many elites? But they didn't even see their skins. ”

Hunting the two hundred horsemen who died mysteriously by the Wuhu water, Mohe Dagan suspected that Shi Guoren also did it. Who else but them could have such guts.

"Listen, you idiot. Immediately roll me back to Shi Guo and organize a siege infantry. In five days' time, I will lead a large army to the city. ”

The grinding of the bone slurping aroused the vigilance of Mohe Dagan, who originally wanted to wait for the city of Samarkand to join Sulu Khan and then invite troops to slaughter the city of Qishi to repay the hatred in his heart. But after thinking about it in the blink of an eye, he was worried that the ripe peaches would be picked by others, so he decided to take precautions and strike first!
