In the course of his constant travel, Heras Curt came into contact with many caravans that had transported goods to the farthest east. From them, Heras Curt learned that there was an ancient kingdom in the far east, and from the mouths of the merchants, he learned that that the ancient kingdom was in no way inferior to the Roman Empire in the development of civilization and art, and even more tolerant of foreign races. So Heras Curt had the idea of taking the Roman slaves to the East to continue migrating, but many of the properties of Heras Curt's family could only be taken care of by him, and he was not at ease with handing them over to outsiders, so he kept up this plan to move eastward.

This was when the Sassanid emperor ordered the scattered Romans to be summoned and reorganized into a Roman legion to fight against the Han Chinese in the east. Heras Curt ransomed these young slaves from the Sassanid slave owners with all his possessions, and then took all the places of the Roman legions by himself, and prepared weapons and food and grass for these young men according to the configuration of the Roman army in the past, and then came to Talas with the army and the Sassanid legions. According to common sense, the financial resources of Heras Curt's family could not buy such a large number of slaves anyway, but after all, these slaves are about to go to war, and it is still up to two to say whether they will be able to come back alive by then. Therefore, if someone is willing to take over these slaves at this time, they will naturally be unable to ask for it. So the slave owners sold their slaves to Heras Curt at a very low price. Moreover, some slaves were sold for much less than they were bought, after all, the work that the slaves had done over the years had already been enough to offset the money they had paid, so the slave owners were naturally very happy to be able to make another sum of money before the slaves were about to die.

So Heras Curt took his Roman army and left the Sassanid Empire with the main Sassanid force and headed for the Talas front. Here, the Oriental armies that Heras Curt saw as the merchants, the well-trained marching columns and well-stationed army barracks, and the strong fighting power of the small Han Chinese forces that constantly fought against infiltration and infiltration between the two armies, showed Heras Curt a new and dynamic empire that was different from the declining Roman Empire.

When the treasurer heard Heras Curt's words, he bowed his head and remained silent. If it's not forced by life, who wants to be a dog for someone else? And from Heras Curt's words, the treasurer faintly heard some of Heras Curt's intentions, so he looked at him with some astonishment.

Heras Curt waved his hand to the treasurer, motioned for him to sit down, and then said, "Don't worry, no matter what, today's events will definitely have a result, we just have to sit here and wait." ”

At this time, a soldier ran in and said to Heras Curt: "Your Excellency, the Han Chinese army has surrounded our barracks, and we do not know exactly when they will attack, please instruct us how to defend it in the next place." ”

"Leave them alone, just keep the barracks in the camp. If anyone goes to war without permission, it is a violation of my military regulations, and it is good to punish them according to the relevant punishment stipulated in the military regulations. Heras Curt was speechless. The Roman soldier, who could not believe what he had heard, turned his head to look at the treasurer again, and when he saw that the treasurer also nodded to himself, he turned and left the commander's tent.

"Let the army at the front just surround the Roman barracks, and let Ellie do the rest. She was now the commander-in-chief of the army that surrounded the Roman camp, and his words were equal to what I said. At the same time, tell Ellie that she only has two hours at most, and after two hours it will either be a rout of our army or a rout of the enemy. Zhang Juntai said to the night owl sent by Ellie.

The reason for making such a decision is that Zhang Juntai also chose 100% trust in Aili and Li Wenyuan. The other is that Zhang Juntai is really busy at this time, and he can't afford to continue to care about the army that is surrounding the Roman legions at this time. After all, this time for those Romans is not like the Western Turks to encircle and then just rush and fight to annihilate, this time for the Romans in the encirclement, it is still mainly to lure and surrender. Therefore, it naturally takes a lot of Zhang Juntai's energy to handle the battle, even if Zhang Juntai is now with a lot of staff officers to help him deal with military affairs, it is still very exhausting. So he simply handed over the jurisdiction of that army to Ellie, who was a night owl, anyway, since Li Wenyuan could entrust such an important matter to her, it was understandable that he would entrust her with an army.

At this time, the armies that were fighting the Sassanids and Western Turks on the front had already arrived at the predetermined positions and had already begun to exchange fire with the Western Turks and Sassanid armies in local positions. Subsequently, as the war developed almost uncontrollably, the armed conflict at the point of contact between the two armies quickly heated up, igniting the entire line of contact between the armies. Suddenly, in every corner of the entire front, there were scenes of soldiers of the two armies fighting each other, and the Western Regions Army still had the following moves on the battlefield: the Mo sword soldiers were at the forefront, using their own strong and thick armor to resist the enemy's swords, guns, bows and arrows; The musketeers followed closely behind the Mosamurai and fired at the enemy on the opposite side with their muskets under the protection of the Mosabermen. The remaining cavalry of the Western Regions Army was constantly shuttling between the positions of the two armies, always trying to attack the flanks of the fighting Turkic and Sassanid armies, so as to relieve the pressure on the soldiers of the Modao Army in front of them.

Of course, as a cavalryman, he naturally would not choose to fight with the infantry in a positional battle. Therefore, the cavalry of the Western Regions Army very perfectly implemented the tactics of Li Wenyuan's travelogue, often rushing to the side of the infantry phalanx of the Sassanid and Western Turkic alliances, and after firing a round with the muskets in their hands, they turned their horses' heads and fled far away in the direction they came, not giving the soldiers in the phalanx a chance to pursue, and at the same time reloading the muskets in their hands again.
