Chapter 30 The Significance of Weight Loss
After inspecting the city of Tawo, Musin came to the conclusion that Tie Xinyuan wanted to destroy Khotan and tie the army of the Qarakhanid to Khotan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The goal that the enemy wants to achieve is exactly what his side needs to protect, but it is not worth it to invest too many troops in a Khotanese who has no loyalty to him.
The Western Regions is really too big, just a Khotanese country, with a radius of more than 500 li, 14 cities under its rule, and a population of more than 600,000.
These more than 600,000 people are scattered in this vast field, and it is not easy to defend.
Khotan is hilly, the hills are gentle, the vegetation is flourishing, it is conducive to the enemy to hide, and at the same time, the plains under the hills are the best battlefield for cavalry.
The Kunlun Mountains in the northeast are covered with snow all year round, and many rivers in the western region, including the Tarim River, originate here and eventually flow into the arid desert, creating countless desert oases.
Therefore, Kunlun Mountain has the saying of the mother of the Western Regions.
The two-headed demon generals of the Hami Kingdom obviously have no intention of going head-to-head with the Qarakhanid army, they roam the hilly terrain and attack the plains, if they send a large army to pursue them wantonly, it will not only waste manpower, but also waste time, if it takes more than a year to destroy this invading army, Musin thinks that this is a very uneconomical thing.
Iron Heart Source needs time to strengthen Hami's defense!
Mu Xin saw through Tie Xinyuan's strategic purpose at a glance.
Four years ago, Tie Xinyuan was just a small ant in Mu Sin's eyes, and it didn't matter whether he killed or let go.
Three years ago, when Mu Xin heard that Tie Xinyuan had occupied a valley in Hami and was about to establish his own country, he was a little amused and a little disappointed.
Two years earlier, Musin had been embarrassed to hear that the Hami state had been established and encouraged the Qarakhanid army to enter the Uighurs.
Who knows, after defeating the Uighur king, the army no longer has the strength to move eastward, so it can only entrench itself in the Shanshan area to recuperate.
Musin led an army to raid the newly established kingdom of Hami, but was blocked by Tie Xinyuan with the flooding Tarim River.
In the blink of an eye in two years, Tie Xinyuan, a former ant, grew into an opponent who needed Mu Xin's level vision with the fastest speed, which Mu Xin did not expect in any case.
The power struggle in the mountains of Alamut has heated up, and Musin urgently needs to get the most out of this power struggle, so that the jihad can gradually extend eastward.
Opening up the Tianshan Road has become an urgent matter.
The Tien Shan Road used to be unhandled, there were only countless robbers and horse thieves, and now, there stands a tall and majestic castle.
The scout had come to a conclusion after probing the castle called Tianshan City. This city cannot be broken by 100,000 soldiers and horses!
Qingxiang City is rich in the world, Hami City is becoming more and more prosperous, Dashi City has fallen, and Loulan City has risen.
Mu Xin didn't dare to imagine what the Hami Kingdom would become if he gave Tie Xinyuan another two years.
The warriors of the Celestial Gods remained in the north of the Tianshan Mountains, while the Song Kingdom in the east began a large-scale westward advance.
The Qing Tang people were defeated, and the tentacles of the Great Song Dynasty had come into contact with the desert of the Western Regions.
The Song Kingdom, which was in the land of anointing, had not yet discovered the countless riches contained in the Western Regions, and their army stopped at the Sun Moon Mountain and the Daoliu River.
If this army continued to advance westward, Musin believed that he would have to retreat to the sacred Pamir with warriors of the gods.
Musin coveted the opulence of the Great Song Dynasty, but he also feared that this country, full of wise people, would in turn move westward.
The Huns were driven away by the ancestors of the Song people, and eventually plagued the West for more than 200 years, and he knows this history.
The Turks were driven away by their ancestors of the Song and eventually came to Constantinople to establish the mighty Byzantine Empire, enslaving the Euphrates River, and the people of the gods on both sides of the Tigris River for two hundred years......
If it weren't for the fear of these people, Musin would not have traveled far to the East, wanting to see this mysterious people with his own eyes.
Fortunately, this ethnic group is now addicted to singing and dancing, indulging in poetry and songs, and indulging in prosperity, and they are unwilling to look north, let alone go west.
Outside of China, there are barbarians!
The eyes of the wise will not fall in front of them, but in ten years, and only the gods can see what the race will be like in a hundred years.
The sound of the bell of the camel woke Mu Xin from his contemplation, and looking at the Kunlun Mountain covered with sunset, Mu Xin bowed his head in worship......
"Deliver the oracle: All servants of the gods have the duty to kill the kaffirls (infidels), and for each head of the kaffirl, the gods will be rewarded with a gold coin.
The governor of Khotan was ordered to mobilize troops to encircle and intercept this enemy army, and to leave the two-headed demon in Khotan at all costs, even if it was a single soldier.
Anyone who has colluded with the Two-Headed Demon will be punished by the gods, and anyone who has ever looked at the Two-Headed Demon will be unclean, and only the flame will purify his soul and eventually ascend to Heaven. ”
Musin's edict reverberated through the land of Khotan, while his army followed his horse's hooves eastward.
Adan dragged his heavy legs back to the camp and fell to the ground with a thud, his sweat-soaked clothes leaving large water stains on the fine carpet.
His legs were still shaking, his thirsty mouth seemed to be smoking, and he reached for the kettle, but he couldn't reach it.
Deis took a kettle and poured water into Adam's mouth like a flower, and drank a large pot of water before Adam threw his head heavily on the carpet, and Adam felt that he was about to die.
He couldn't figure it out anyway, obviously he didn't want to eat, but when it was time to eat, his body needed a lot of food like a demon, and it was not under his control at all.
Aisha said that this was a poisonous ploy of King Hami, and that he was cultivating Adam's instinct to eat, and that in Hami's dungeon, every time he ate, Adam tried his best to refuse, but those damned jailers, as long as it was time to eat, they would use funnels............
"Mother Deeth, I've lost some weight." Adan fell to the ground and laughed at Deis.
"I haven't eaten today, I haven't eaten for two days, I've managed to lose five thousand carats, and I believe it won't be long before I'll be able to ride again on horseback and become a qualified knight."
Deyith's eyes were red, and he stroked Adam's wet hair and said, "Okay, Adam, keep going, you will become a warrior again." ”
Adan smiled happily and immediately fell asleep.
Deis covered Adan with a thin blanket and sat on the edge of Bosten Lake until the sun set, and then slowly came to Aisha's tent.
Aisha, who was reading a book, said, "Adan still doesn't want to see me? ”
Deyth laughed, "You should give him time." ”
"It's been two months, and Adam's body is still fat, and even the strongest war horse can't carry his heavy body.
Deyith, did he do his best?
We don't have time to wait for him to lose weight one carat at a time, the order of the Lord of Wisdom has arrived, the time to attack the kingdom of Hami is getting closer, and I am worried that Adan will not be able to catch up with this vital war. ”
Deyith lowered his head and said, "Adan has been greatly hurt......"
Aisha raised her head and looked at Deyith and said, "We are all the same, the humiliation I endured in Hami is enough to make me the eternal laughing stock of the Western Regions. ”
Deis's eyes widened, she couldn't believe that such words were coming from Aisha's mouth.
Aisha sighed and said, "The speed of growth of the Hami Kingdom is like a miracle, and the longer we delay, the more beneficial it will be for the Hami King. ”
Deyith retorted unwillingly: "We have an agreement with the Sakya Living Buddha to plot against Musin. ”
Aisha said coldly: "Do you remember the embarrassed appearance of Adan when he came back from sitting on the back of a camel?
Do you remember Adam sitting on the back of a camel and roaring helplessly?
Have you forgotten the fact that Adan needed the help of two strong warriors to jump off the camel?
Without Adam's former prowess, who else can we plot? ”
Deyith wept, "Adan is almost losing weight with his own life. ”
Aisha shouted angrily, "I said, it's not enough! Far from enough! ”
There was a messy and heavy sound of footsteps outside the tent, and Deis lifted the curtain of the tent, only to see a large figure staggering towards Bosten Lake.
"Adan, Aisha didn't mean it."
Dees screamed.
Aisha watched Adam's huge back disappear into the horizon, and sighed softly, "Adam, don't let you despair, you won't defeat the demon planted in your heart by the Iron Heart Source. ”
At dawn, there was a huge wooden cage on the edge of Bosten Lake, and the fat Adan was like a war elephant, using his fat body to attack a straw man wrapped in cowhide again and again.
The wooden cage seemed to tremble with each impact, and even though Adam's shoulder was already bloodied, he still showed no sign of wanting to stop.
"Adam, stop, stop, you'll die if you go on like this." Deyth screamed as he hugged the thigh-thick wooden railing.
Adam's indifferent eyes swept over Deyith, and he refocused his gaze on the cowhide-wrapped straw man, trying to move his fat body, and once again slammed into the straw man, but the force was much smaller than before.
I don't know how long Adan woke up after being in a coma, and his dexterous nose actually smelled the fragrance of food for the first time.
He slowly moved to the edge of the cage, reached out and grabbed the piece of wheat cake, which was only the size of his palm, and squeezed it into strips vigorously, swallowing it little by little.
The sky darkened once more.
The stars appeared in the sky one by one, and Adan looked up at the sky, but there were no tears in his eyes......
Tie Xinyuan is also looking at the sky, the starry sky in the Western Regions is always so charming, the iron fox is crouching at his feet, the iron fox, who is almost twenty years old, finally loses his former liveliness, and lies in a comfortable place all day long and is unwilling to move.
This made Tie Xinyuan very worried. (To be continued.) )
