Harold first declared them slaves, organized 17,000 talented scholars and craftsmen into troops, militarized them, and forced them to learn Arabic.

During the study period, each of them will be assigned to their specific strengths, and they will be assigned after they have passed the language barrier. The rest were sent to the slave market as ordinary slaves.

After the death of Shena's father, the caliph, all the princes were imprisoned, and the caliph's wives and daughters were expelled from the palace.

Sheena's mother was placed under house arrest in the palace because of Shena.

Li Su learned of this situation and ordered the Overseas Intelligence Bureau to try to rescue him.

Misthep personally went to Damascus to organize the rescue, only to find that Sheena's mother had been rescued by Harold.

Sticker asks Harold for someone, but Harold refuses to admit that Sheena's mother is in his hands.

East Palace.

After Hina got the news, she came to Li Su.

Sheena said anxiously, "Your Majesty, my mother was picked up by Harold, and you have to try to save her." ”

Li Su comforted her and said: "Your mother is not in danger, Harold took your mother over, just wanted to take her as a hostage and make conditions to Datang." ”

Xina said: "The concubine knows that it is precisely because of this that she should be brought to Chang'an, so as not to embarrass you." ”

Sheena's mother, River Harold's mother, had a good relationship and the two families were close in the past. Sheena wasn't worried about what Harold would do to her mother. She was just worried that Harold would use the matter to make a fuss and put forward conditions that would be difficult for Li Su to accept.

Li Su said: "I'm afraid not at the moment, since Harold doesn't admit it, it means that your mother is being held in a secret place, and now she is under strict guard."

My opinion is that this matter should be put aside for the time being, let the Overseas Intelligence Bureau investigate slowly, and after a while, when Harold has relaxed his care for your mother, he will find an opportunity to rescue him. ”

Hina agreed with Li Su's opinion and put the matter aside for the time being.

On this day, Sheena's maid Emali went out shopping and met a messenger sent by Harold who handed her a letter and asked her to bring it to Sheena.

In the letter, Harold admitted that Sheena's mother was in Tehran and lived with Harold's mother, and said that she was living well and told Sheena not to worry about it.

Harold says that Dramb killed their father and that he wants to avenge his father and asks Sheena for help.

Although Sheena didn't get much favor from her father, it was her father after all, and she hated Delamb for killing her father.

Hina didn't hide it and told Li Su about it.

Li Su consulted with his ministers, believing that the Arab Empire was now divided into three parts, and that it was better to last longer, so that they could fight each other and consume their strength in large quantities.

Geographically, Persia was directly confronted with the area controlled by the Derlamb, the largest split power in the Arab Empire, and Hou Junji was at war with the Dramb.

Harold and Hemar are also at war with Derlamb and are forces that can be used.

The imperial court decided to adopt a strategy of distant friendship and close attack, and provided assistance to Harold and Hemar to support their war against Delambb.

The Tang Dynasty annexed Tibet, Southeast Asia, and South Asia, and captured millions of weapons of various types, which were of no use to the Tang army. The material is very complex, and it is not as cost-effective as direct iron smelting. Storing these weapons also takes up a lot of space.

Li Su decided to sell these weapons to Harold and Hemar. Harold and Hemar are now at war and urgently need a large number of weapons, which are not looked down upon by the Tang army, but they are the most precious weapons for them.

After the Ministry of Foreign Affairs contacted Harold and Hemar, an agreement was quickly reached with them to sell the weapons to them at a price slightly above the market price. The Tang Dynasty made a huge windfall.

Once the agreement was reached, the next step was the issue of transportation. Harold and Hemar did not have this ability, and they asked the Tang Dynasty to complete this task, and they were responsible for the shipping costs.

The Tang Dynasty was naturally willing to accept this kind of request, and it could make a lot of money.

Weapons given to Hemar, which were in the responsibility of the Navy, were delivered directly from the sea to the Arabian Peninsula. It's a bit of a hassle to transport it to Harold.

The Tang Dynasty does not border the area controlled by Harold, and the Persian direction has to pass through the area controlled by Dramb, which obviously does not work.

The closest road to the area controlled by Harold was from Mawei County, northwest of the Yinshan Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty, and passed through the country of Grolu (a part of present-day Kazakhstan).

The Grolu State was a country slightly smaller than Tibet, with a population of 670,000, and maintained a two-sided relationship with the Arab Empire and the Tang Dynasty.

Previously, in order to avoid direct border with the Arab Empire, the Tang Dynasty had retained the existence of this state.

After the restructuring of the Tang Army, Li Ji, the governor of Yinshan Prefecture, served as the commander of the Yinshan Military Region, and was in charge of 5 cavalry divisions and 3 infantry divisions.

Over the years, Li Ji has always felt aggrieved when he saw that the imperial court had continued to expand and expand its territory and laid down a large area of land, and he only had a part to watch here.

On this day, the officers of the Logistics Department of the General Staff led the troops of the three transport regiments to escort a large number of weapons to the area controlled by Harold to the Yinshan Metropolitan Protectorate. and brought Li Ji a letter from Li Jing.

After reading the letter, Li Ji was overjoyed. He immediately conveyed the spirit of this letter to the senior generals of the Yinshan Military Region.

In the letter, Li Jing asked the Yinshan Military Region to open up the passage from the Yinshan Metropolitan Protectorate to the Arab Empire.

The core content of this letter is the four words "act cheaply", that is, as long as the passage from the Yinshan Metropolitan Protectorate to the Arab Empire is opened, it is up to the Yinshan Military Region to decide what method to use.

Li Ji sent someone to inform the king of Grolu that the Tang army wanted to escort weapons across Grolu.

The king of Grolu did not dare to let the Tang army cross the border, fearing that the Tang army would attack him by false means. He didn't dare not let the Tang army cross the border, for fear of annoying the Tang army, so he directly sent troops to destroy the Grolu Kingdom.

In the past few years, the Tang Dynasty has expanded its territory and expanded its territory, and many of the great powers that far surpassed the Grolu Kingdom in strength were destroyed by the Tang Dynasty.

In the past, the Arab Empire was powerful, and the Grolu Kingdom was able to act as a buffer between the two great powers, and was able to seek a chance of survival in the gap. Now that the Arab empire is divided, the Grolu state has lost the necessity of its existence.

The king of the country of Grolu and the ministers discussed for a long time, instead of being destroyed by the Tang Dynasty and becoming the monarch of the fallen country, it was better to take the initiative and ask to join the Tang Dynasty, and everyone still had a good way out.

Li Ji and the generals of the Yinshan Military Region worked hard for a long time to prepare, mobilized 100,000 troops, and prepared to adopt the tactics of false ways to destroy the Grolu Kingdom by the way, but the king of the Glolu Kingdom came with important ministers to submit the surrender table.
