Chapter 258
Zhuo Fangyuan, this is also an old man who praised the Japanese army, when the old general Wang Yu was a cadre, he once pressed Shi Xiu in his official position, but later after Wang Yu was defeated because of the rebellion, this guy did not follow the decline, and it is a miracle that he can climb back from the new.
Shi Xiu's current left wing commander is Zhuo Fangyuan's position back then, but the current Zhuo Fangyuan is just a member of the army in the Governor's Mansion, although the official rank is not low, but the power position is not the same as that of the dignified commander.
Zhuo Fangyuan's appearance here now naturally represents the will of Li Zhe's Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and he said that a friend who can help Shi Xiu under the current circumstances? Who will it be?
Shi Xiu really couldn't think of it for a while.
Looking at Shi Xiu's face full of doubts, Zhuo Fangyuan was very proud, he waved his hand behind him, and a person walked in outside the tent, but all the people in the tent hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said in unison:
"Madame!"
This newcomer turned out to be a woman, but her identity was extremely not simple.
They have seen it on many occasions,
Hestia?
It's not Li Zhe, who is the only Persian bearded girl around Li Zhe besides the queen?
Speaking of this woman who is the only woman by Li Zhe's side who takes him with him wherever he goes, Hestia's reputation in Tianzhu is also quite famous, after all, Li Zhe's identity is not easy to stay by Li Zhe's side all the time.
Speaking of which, Li Zhe has been running around all these years, and even Zhao Jieyu has not spent as much time together as Hestia and Li Zhe.
can make Queen Zhao Jieyu accept her by Li Zhe's side, of course, it is also related to Hestia's identity, she has always been a bridge between Li Zhe and the Zoroastrian Holy See, although with Li Zhe's current identity, the value of Zoroastrianism to him has gradually become dispensable, but considering the possible role that Zoroastrianism may play in the war between Tianzhu and the Ilkhanate in the future, Li Zhe has never broken this line.
I didn't expect this clue to finally be used today.
This time, the alliance of the princes under his jurisdiction marched west to the Ilkhanate, forcing Li Zhe to finally use this line.
In the past two years, the Zoroastrian religion has indeed realized its original plan through the relationship with Li Zhe, and even gained far more from Li Zhe than they originally imagined.
Through Li Zhe's line, the Zoroastrian religion successfully broke into the area under the jurisdiction of Tianfang and Yanzhou Tianzhu through the slave trade and commercial network under their control, and in the past two years, the rapid development of Tianzhu in this area can be said to have made a lot of money.
The current Zoroastrianism is no longer the Persian state religion of the past, and as the forces in the religion continue to penetrate towards heaven and towards the vast Yanzhou, the vision of the Zoroastrian leaders has also become much higher. Now their expectations of Persia have also faded.
What about the restoration of Persia?
Can it compete with the Song people who are in the sky?
The Tianzhu in front of him was already so strong, and it was said that there was a central empire of the Song people who were far more powerful than Tianzhu in the east.
Even after the restoration of Persia, it must be a vassal state that follows Tianzhu's side, and it is impossible to develop under Tianzhu's nose.
If that is the case, why bother to return to the country?
After the restoration of the country, it is difficult to say that the Zoroastrian Church would not still have such a status in the eyes of the Song people.
The current Zoroastrianism is not so much a religion as a large group of slave traders in the vicinity of Central Asia under the guise of religion, and the art of rebellion has declined, but the men who resell slaves back and forth in several countries of the Hu and Song people are getting more and more comfortable, as if it is already the largest slave trading group that interfaces with Li Zhe's Nanyanzhou, and the Nanyanzhou plan can develop so quickly, which is indispensable to the credit of Zoroastrianism.
Now Li Zhe suddenly said that he was going to crusade against the Ilkhanate, which really made these guys feel complicated.
"So, madam, you said that your noble sect was able to organize the people of your sect to rebel in the territory of the Hu people and cater to our army? I just don't know how many people can be taken out? ”
Regarding the appearance of Hestia, the generals in the account naturally did not dare to slack off, no matter how they said it, they were Li Zhe's wife, even if they couldn't be Li Zhe's official princess because of the queen, but they were also Li Zhe's women.
Although Li Zhe is in a high position, there are not many women around him, and I know that so far, I have only heard of this Persian bearded girl, which shows Li Zhe's love for her.
is only for Li Zhe's sake, and several people dare not underestimate this woman.
It's just Zoroastrianism in Hestia's mouth, but everyone is not very finished? Persia has been dead for hundreds of years, and how much power does the religion of hundreds of years still have in its homeland?
There was some doubt in everyone's hearts.
He also said that it can help the Western Expedition, what help will it bring, and how much help can it bring? The crowd was very skeptical.
Hestia has been by Li Zhe's side for nearly two years, and he already has a deep understanding of the character of the Song people.
Hestia smiled and said:
"I don't dare to say too much about this, the real orthodox Mongol army in the Khan can't say it, but at least the two subordinate armies can still be won. In addition, the governor of Tabriz is also one of our people, and we can also kill the commander of the Mongolian army in the city in advance. Coupled with the private army in the hands of the wealthy merchants in Tabriz, we can come up with at least 30,000 men, and it will not be a problem at all to take Tabriz.
In fact, Gerban is now leading the main force of the Hu people under his command to leave, and has completely turned this city into an empty city, and you can completely treat this city as if it was already ours. The premise, of course, is that we can reach the city of Tabriz. ”
What the?
The crowd was stunned by Hestia's confident statement.
They didn't expect that the Zoroastrians would have such a force in the Ilkhanate, as if they could take Tabriz even without the help of their own army.
When the infiltration of his own army in the Ilkhanate was already so powerful, this was really unexpected by everyone, and the only possibility could only be said to be the handiwork of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
It turned out that the Grand Governor had already prepared to attack the Ilkhanate.
They didn't think that this was the Zoroastrian people's own power, but felt that this was definitely a foreshadowing arranged by Li Zhe in advance in the territory of the Ilkhanate, and Li Zhe was able to lead the army to take Manraka in a battle, so it was normal to secretly plan for the Ilkhanate so early. These people have now deified Li Zhe, and they feel that since it was Li Zhe who made the move, then no matter how outrageous the situation is, it is possible.
Well, everyone thought that this westward expedition to the Ilkhanate was still a bit hasty, but now that there is such a super leading party as Zoroastrianism in the enemy country, it seems that the Ilkhanate is really going to end.
