Even in December, the sun in the Middle East is still scorching, and the ancient city wall of Jerusalem for thousands of years seems to be burnt with yellow cracks and more dense cloth. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]

Around this, the Jews guarding the city are still staring at the scorching sun, sweating overtime to maintain the city wall, the previous one, the artillery fire of the Tang army has brought damage to the city defense, and now the Jews' biggest reliance on the Tang people has gone west, tens of thousands of Jews who swore to live and die with the dream of the Promised Land can only rely on their own hands.

A group of Jewish elders wearing pointed hats, big satellites, and white robes, worriedly gathered around Ahab, the ten-year-old king of Israel, who had just succeeded to the throne last night, and looked at the yellow sand in the distance, and they knew that it was the yellow sand rolled up by the Arabs.

They also knew that tens of thousands of poorly armed and poorly trained Jews would not be able to hold Jerusalem for long, and perhaps it would not be long before they would be swallowed up by the sea of Islam.

"The Most High God, God, your devotees are here to pray to you." In the face of the billowing smoke, dozens of Jewish elders knelt on the ground around their new king, reverently reciting the scriptures handed down by the Jews, waiting for the end to come.

However, just halfway through the prayer, and just an hour after being appointed as Israel's defense minister, Esau, who was originally the captain of the Tang army's baggage, ran over in surprise.

"Elder Sharon, Elder Sharon!"

"What is the system of panic and panic, since you remain, you must be determined to defend the Promised Land with blood, and sit down! Pray with Elder Ben! ”

Seeing that the elder of his family blew his beard and glared, Esau was stunned for a few seconds, and then he knelt aside with a bitter face, and prayed for half an hour to pray for the Jewish Bible, and then the satisfied Grand Elder Sharon turned around, carried Esau and asked, "Tell me, where did the Arabs come from?"

"The Arabs didn't come up from anywhere, they turned around, and the Arabs went to fight the Byzantines!" Finally maintaining his composure according to the elder's teachings, Esau said with a trembling lips, and with a simple single sentence, the eyes of the elder Sharon, who had just heard it, immediately straightened his eyes.

"God has appeared!"

With a loud shout, the old eyes were paired, and the Jewish leader who had not changed his face collapsed in front of him, and the white beard of Sharon looked up to the sky.

"You kid, why didn't you tell me about it sooner?" Surprised and delighted, he comforted the fainting salon, and the second elder Mi Naxian blamed him, and Esau couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard it.

Standing on the highest wall of Jerusalem, the Jews looked down with all their might, and in the distance, they were greeted by an incomparably spectacular scene.

Not far from the eastern wall of Jerusalem, countless Arabs galloped on the road, endlessly, the sandstorm raised by the hooves of the galloping horses and camels was even as high as more than ten meters, and it was impossible to see the soldiers marching inside, only a dragon could be seen, winding and endless.

Lying on the head of the city, for an hour, the marching Arab army had not finished, and the Jews who had just been in a relaxed and happy mood were already pale at this time, and they no longer had the heart to look at it.

"Repair the Wall !!" The little tongue trembled, and the chief sharon hissed and shouted as hard as he could, and in his roar, the Jews who were moving bricks and repairing the city walls under the scorching sun were a little faster, and one by one they climbed up like ants.

"Greedy Byzantines, give me back the spoils!"

There are tens of thousands of people, boundless, not to mention 500,000, so many Arabs riding horses around the camp shouting and scolding, even Constantine IV, who finally won the power of Byzantium, can't help but feel numb in his scalp.

I don't know if the golden olive branch I finally put on is crooked, and the ill-fitting emperor's purple robe is tightly attached to my body, and for the first time, Constantine IV is like a trapped beast constantly patrolling back and forth, and his mouth is still chattering and cursing.

"Crazy Arabs!"

Speaking of the Byzantine army is also aggrieved, to talk about the spoils, they did gain a lot, almost all the treasures and money in the palace of the King of Min were intercepted by them, the King of Min's car, including the chariot canopy car was just placed in the stable of the Byzantine Emperor, and more than a thousand tiger squatting cannons, whether he could use it or not, were all pulled back, and the prisoners were as many as 90,000.

But when it comes to food, Byzantium really didn't get a single grain, and when they entered the camp of Fujian Yankuai, the grain was emptied by the Jews.

Expecting that the Arabs would come to ask for booty, Byzantium had actually prepared part of it, who would have thought that the Arabs would come and ask for food in one mouth, and Constantine IV was confused.

Grain! The huge Byzantine Empire is actually not much, it is really not a family that does not know the price of firewood and rice, and the Arab Empire has been fighting for more than a year, although the last granary of the empire Asia Minor, Syria, Palestine, Aleppo and other places have been taken back one by one, but thousands of acres of fertile land are all abandoned in the war, and most of the people are in the army, especially near the richest Constantinople, almost all of them were destroyed in the war.

Even if she was in power, Anna was so obedient to Li Jieyan, a large part of the reason was because more than half of the Byzantine grain needed to be transported from Tianzhu.

Now that he has turned his face with Fujian, Constantine IV is not rich, but when the Arabs speak, he is not good not to give, and it is difficult to squeeze out hundreds of barrels of grain.

This is too far from the number expected by the 500,000 Arabs, and it is no wonder that the Arab sheikh, who was the envoy, immediately left in a rage.

Just when Constantine IV was at a loss, Leo, the general who was patrolling outside, ran in in a hurry, and fell to one knee on the ground in a panic, exclaiming: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, those Arabs are already very irritable to wait, some people have begun to shoot arrows into the camp, the soldiers are panicking, please make a quick decision!"

"Crazy Arabs!" scolded angrily again, but Constantine IV paced back to his seat in a decadent manner, and waved his hand weakly in pain: "Collect the spoils and hand them over, and send away this group of poor ghosts."

"Your Majesty, no!"

As soon as Constantine IV's words fell, the patriarch Constantine on the side immediately changed his face, and his fat body jumped in front of Constantine IV, twisting and resisting: "The soldiers fought all night, and if they were handed over like this, the army would be in an uproar, Your Majesty had just won the military power in the hands of **** Anna, and the army was already unstable, once the soldiers were angry, it was likely to provoke a mutiny!"

In the history of Rome, there are not a few emperors who were killed and deposed by the army, thinking about the consequences, even Constantine IV couldn't help but tremble for a while, and then knocked on the armrests of the table and chair irritably, and shouted anxiously: "It's not that you don't pay it, what should Augustus do?"

"Drag!" With a turn of his eyes, the other end was in stark contrast to Konstantin, and the cunning eyes of the patriarch Hou Limi, who was as thin as a hemp rod, rolled his eyes, but he came up with a good idea.

"Syria has been in the hands of Muawiya for a long time, the city of Damascus is strong, the food is abundant, and the Arabs today are half starving to death, as long as they drag it out today, retreat to Damascus, don't look at the Arabs today, they are terrible, once the food and grass are cut off, they will have to retreat to the Arabian desert like dead dogs."

It was really a sudden light in front of his eyes, and Constantine IV slapped the table with joy: "That's it!"

One order after another was issued, and the Byzantine army was immediately heavily defended like a huge turtle, and it has always been the old business of the Byzantines to play intrigue and tricks.

Just when the Byzantine military camp was in a hurry, hundreds of miles away in the West Bank of the Upper Jordan River, tens of thousands of cavalry were also desperately rushing and fighting.

Thousands of Tang forbidden troops followed this banner and galloped wildly in the dry valley of the Jordan River, and it was 20,000 Arab cavalry who competed with them.

There are about 60,000 troops in Fujian who broke through the siege, and in order to escape conveniently, Li Jie deliberately divided the army into six parts, scattered and broke through, so that 20,000 Arab light cavalry would stick to Li Jie's forbidden army, and the chase had been for a day and a night.

"Your Highness, it's not a way to run like this, please give the last general a mansion, and the last general will be set as His Highness to break the chasing soldiers!" was also thrown out of the fire, the whole beard was covered with sweat and salt frost, carrying a bow and arrows, and Zanpo angrily asked.

"Your Highness, please let the minister go, as long as the minister rides a hundred, he will definitely bring the head of the Arab barbarian to report to His Highness!" Swinging Fang Tian's halberd, Zhonglang Xue Rengui, who was walking on Li Jie's right, was also aggrieved, but unfortunately, Li Jie shook his head heavily.

"Lead the army to retreat with peace of mind, and don't allow the enemy!"

"Lang Jun, but if you keep running like this, you won't have time to rest, and the soldiers will collapse sooner or later!" This time, even Changsun Zhi couldn't help it, Qiaoli's face was full of fatigue and sweat under the silver beast helmet, and Changsun Zhi also said to Li Jie worriedly.

This time, he really hesitated, Li Jie thought for a moment, but looked at the left solemnly, and asked solemnly: "Anna, how far is it from where?"

Also drenched in sweat, beautiful chestnut hair was stuck to the white neck with sweat, such a long-distance horseback ride, for the pampered Anna, is also a big test, forced to bear the gold star, Anna gritted her teeth and took out the wet map from her chest.

"About half an hour to go."

Seeing that Li Jie exhaled and drove his horse silently again, this time even Anna couldn't help it, pinching the map and shouting hysterically: "But, what are you doing there?" It's also a dead place, the water there is brackish and undrinkable, there's not even a living creature there, what's the point of going there? ”

Li Jie ignored himself, and the furious Anna simply stretched out her tired body and grabbed the reins of Li Jie's horse, and screamed loudly: "Even if you don't think about your subordinates, I am responsible for my life, you must tell me now, otherwise, Princess Ben would rather fight with these Arabs behind her!"

Being forced here, Li Jie was also helpless, and after shrugging his shoulders helplessly, he showed a wicked smile.

"You've really figured it out? There are 500,000 horses in the back! Even if 500,000 people turn you and you can withstand it, there are still 500,000 horses! Yes, and camels, which are bigger than horses. ”

At first, I didn't understand it, but I saw that Zanpo's red face was even redder, and she couldn't help but smile and gestured a long stick, Anna suddenly understood that she was being tricked by this fight, Qiaoli's face was purple and black, and this girl roared angrily with her teeth and claws.

"Li Jie, I'll fight with you!"
