Chapter 1211: Belus Shows Overtures

One: "These are the elites of the undead regiment. Belus pointed to the Persian soldiers in front of him, and said.

"It's true that they're all elite soldiers." Xia Hongsheng nodded. This is true, Xia Hongsheng is now also a general who has experienced the military array many times, and these people in front of him look tough and disciplined, and they are by no means ordinary soldiers. These are the two hundred men selected from among them, and they will go ashore and try to blend in with the Great Eater.

Belus stepped aside, stepped back, and said, "If Brother Xia has any orders, just tell them." ”

Xia Hongsheng nodded and said to those Persians: "Persia and the Tang Dynasty fought back against the Great Eclipse together, at this time. There are more than 100,000 people on the other side of the river, and it will definitely not work our side alone. ”

Xia Hongsheng deliberately spoke slowly, so as to wait for Belus's personal entourage next to him to translate his words to the Persian soldiers of the undead regiment.

"I'll send ships to send you to a little north to land quietly, and you're going to blend in with the Great Food Army and wait for an opportunity to act." Xia Hongsheng continued: "I will launch an attack on the Great Cannibal here, and your task is to find the military rations of the Great Cannibals on the other side while the Great Cannibals are attracted by this side, and then set fire to the grain and grass of the Great Cannibals." Got it? ”

When Belus's personal entourage next to him relayed Xia Hongsheng's words to those Persian soldiers, they said in unison, although Xia Hongsheng didn't understand, he also understood what it meant.

So he nodded, and said, "After you infiltrate the Great Food Army, try to burn as much grain and grass as possible when you move." However, it must be borne in mind that burning the grain and grass of the Great Food is not the main purpose, so burn as much as you can, and when the Great Cannibals react, you will retreat directly, and try to leave the Great Food Barracks while there is chaos, and there will be a ship to meet you. But there is no need to die to burn. Come back with your life saved, and there will be a time later when you will be taught to work hard. ”

Xia Hongsheng's meaning is very clear, if you can burn more, you can burn as much as possible, it's really not good, and you don't need to fight for your life to pursue burning more.

These words made Belus behind him stunned, and he felt more and more incomprehensible.

After Nabelus's personal translation, Xia Hongsheng saw that the reaction of those Persian soldiers was a little contemptuous and a little disdainful. But Xia Hongsheng won't care, when it comes to the future, when he has to die desperately, then Xia Hongsheng can't stop it.

"The soldiers of the undead regiment are proud to die in battle." Belus also saw the reaction of those Persian soldiers, and stepped forward to explain to Xia Hongsheng: "But I didn't hear that it was Brother Xia who was sympathetic to the soldiers. ”

With that, Belus stepped forward again and spoke in Persian, and the people were able to regain their composure.

"War pays attention to strategic methods, and it is certainly worthy of respect to be proud of dying in battle, but when there is nothing to be done but to fight to the death, you can still fight to the death until you die in battle." Xia Hongsheng said: "Right now, it is much more useful to save a life than to die when burning grain and grass." If he dies in battle, he must die when the army of the Great Eater on the opposite side is wiped out. Whether you want to die while burning the military rations, or whether you want to witness the defeat of the Great Food Army on the opposite side a few days later, you have to choose for yourself. Let's go! ”

The two hundred men boarded the ship and departed, and Belus looked at the white smoke and whistled silently.

Xia Hongsheng walked to Belus's side and said, "This is really too much to sell, otherwise I will be exterminated by the Nine Clans for treason." ”

"When Xiao Wang came, I also heard some rumors." The expression on Belus's face was a little melancholy, and he said: "It is said that the Tang army released a kind of monster in the sea, which looks like an iron coat, can emit white smoke, and the fire that spit out will not be extinguished at sea, and can also spew strange thunder to blow up ships...... I'm afraid it's just this kind of warship?! ”

Xia Hongsheng nodded: "This is a collection of all the most advanced technologies in Datang, and the cost is so high - all this kind of warships in Datang are here." ”

"When I was in Chang'an at that time, Brother Xia accidentally said that people are more angry than people." Belus shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is really true! If Persia still does not try to change, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Persia to gain a foothold in the world in the future. ”

Belus was a capable man, and he was actually somewhat similar to Emperor Chongzhen in the late Ming Dynasty in Chinese history. Although he has the ability and courage, the mess left to him is too big, and he is powerless to return to heaven by himself.

"Persia still has a chance." Xia Hongsheng said: "Your Highness, there are only you and me here, and I won't hide some words." Dashi, Datang is definitely going to take it down. But after taking it down, it is too far apart, and it is not easy to govern, at least in recent years. Datang needs an ally here, and a partner who can help Datang maintain its interests. Although, depending on the Tang Dynasty, it will make Persia lose some dignity and some independent power. But the Tang Dynasty will not treat a true friend badly, at least, Persia can have the vast majority of independence, can maintain the state system, and the Sassanid Dynasty can survive forever with the help of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Belus didn't speak, and Xia Hongsheng said again: "In the situation of Persia, His Highness is a fan of the authorities, but I am a bystander. Without the Great Eclipse, there is also Eastern Rome. In addition to the Eastern Romans, there were also the countries of the Western Regions. Although the countries of the Western Regions were all weak, the Turkic people defeated by the Tang Dynasty would march westward in search of living space. The Turks are even more barbaric than the Great Cannibals, and the Turkic cavalry is only stronger than the Great Cannibals. The Turks did not have the slightest resistance in the face of the Tang Dynasty in the east, and with the westward expansion of the Tang Dynasty, the Turks could only survive by going all the way west. Eventually, they would arrive in this land and become the greatest and most dangerous threat to Persia after both the Great Eclipse and Eastern Rome. ”

"The situation of Persia, Mr. Xuan Ce also told Xiao Wang. It's roughly the same as what Brother Xia said. Belus was silent for a while, and then said, "The little king often wonders how powerful the Persian Empire was in the past, and why it has fallen to such a state as it is now. Xiao Wang is unwilling......"

Xia Hongsheng nodded: "Although you and I have our own countries, I take Your Highness as a friend." I would not have uttered a word of these words to any other person in Persia. At the very least, His Highness still has time to consider and make a decision before the Tang Dynasty solves the problem of how to govern territories far away from the state. ”

"Thank you Brother Xia for reminding me!" Belus solemnly raised his hand to Xia Hongsheng and saluted, paused, and said: "Xiao Wang is ready to ask Mr. Xuan Ce to lead a Persian army to come to assist the Tang Dynasty. I guessed that Brother Xia might have a back hand this time, but I couldn't guess what Brother Xia was going to do. However, with Brother Xia's ability, I am afraid that the big food army on this side of the shore will be more auspicious. Then this Persian army, there is little point in coming to Turbay. Where does Brother Xia want them to appear? ”

Xia Hongsheng secretly said in his heart, Belus is really a lively and decisive person, and he decided to show favor to Datang in an instant. It can be seen that although he did not agree to Xia Hongsheng's proposal, but at this moment, he has already begun to make some preparations for that result. At that time, it is better for Persia to still be self-reliant, if not, the good relationship with the Tang Dynasty has already been concluded at this moment - from this moment on, the Tang Dynasty and Persia have truly become an alliance.
