Chapter 486: Black Clouds Crush the City

"Damn Abdullah!"

The Shiite caliph Ibrahim shouted angrily and slapped his palm on the railing.

No wonder he was so angry, and now on the eve of the war with the distant aliens, Abdullah stabbed him in the back!

This damn fellow, he was the one who ceded the lands of the East to the aliens, and it was he who led the aliens to the city of Kufa and killed Mansur, and now, it was Abdullah who took advantage of the war with the aliens to launch an attack on his army left in Syria!

Such a despicable and greedy fellow has the face to call himself a caliph!

"Caliph, there are too many people in Abdullah's legion, our people can't resist it at all, most of them have been killed by him, and few have escaped. When the messenger came from the other side of the mountain, he heard that the Syrian army had occupied all of Aleppo and was preparing to march eastward......"

"Damn! Damn it! Ibrahim shouted angrily, "Abdullah! Allah will not forgive this despicable creature! ”

Before he returned from the Aleppo front, he wrote a letter to Abdullah, in which he rightly accused him of ceding land to the Tang people, hoping that he would see that he believed in Allah and cede war near Aleppo so that he could turn against the Tang people. In his reply, Abdullah expressed his shame about what had happened and swore in Allah's name that he would never attack his defences. Because of this, he was relieved to leave Syria and come to Isfahan, but he did not expect that Abdullah would be so despicable that he would break his promise!

Oaths made in the name of Allah can be reversed! Such a person. Is there still any fear of Allah in your heart?

Ibrahim was furious. Apparently, Abdullah had been ready to stab him in the back from the beginning. Oaths taken in the name of Allah are violated. This was something he couldn't accept at all.

"Caliph, do you want to dedicate some of your forces to teach Abdullah a lesson?" The guard asked.

“…… No need! It's too late to go back now! Ibrahim exclaimed, his eyes shining fiercely.

Abdullah's Syrian Corps is not easy to deal with, and the troops that Abdullah put on the front line in Aleppo before were less than half of the Syrian Corps. Just put his main force there for so long, and now divide some people to go over, it's just boring for himself. Originally, all the main forces Abdullah could fight, so what's the use of dividing a part!

The feeling of betrayal made Ibrahim extremely angry, but after all, he was a master, and he still maintained a certain amount of sanity.

"Is that all?" The guard asked.

"Of course you can't just leave it at that! Abdullah stabbed in the back and must pay for it! Ibrahim's voice was low, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, "Wait...... As long as we defeat the Tang people in this battle...... As long as we defeat the Tang people, more people will surely serve us. More people recognize me as a true caliph! When we defeat the Dons, we will have more troops in our hands. Then go to Abdullah...... Then I will ask him how he dares to break the oath he has made in the name of Allah. ”

Standing on top of the tower, looking at the huge city below and the dense tents outside the city, Ibrahim was extremely depressed.

In a few days, this was the second piece of bad news.

The Eastern Alien Race from afar had been advancing extremely slowly, and news could continue to spread, and he knew the location of the alien army well, but since a few days ago, he has not been able to get any news. Now he had no idea where the alien race had gone, which made him feel extremely dangerous.

During this period, he also constantly sent people to leave Isfahan and go to the direction where the Tang people were coming to inquire about the news, but none of the scouts sent out could not return.

Knowing that the Tang people were already very close, he didn't know where the Tang people were now and when they would come to the city, and everything was out of control, which made Ibrahim extremely nervous.

I don't know when the Tang people will suddenly kill, which makes Ibrahim unable to sleep peacefully, in order to guard against the sudden attack of the Tang people, the warriors inside and outside the city can not rest well every day, and prepare for war under his orders. A few days have passed, and the Tang army has not yet appeared, but the soldiers are already looking a little tired.

When the news finally arrived, the Tang people were only a few hundred miles away from Isfahan and could appear under the city at any time, so Ibrahim did not dare to relax at all.

At this moment, the news came that Abdullah had stabbed him in the back.

It was a long way from the front line in Aleppo to Isfahan, and by the time the news reached here, the war there should have been over long ago, and the 5,000 elite soldiers he had left in Aleppo had been wiped out, and a large area west of the Zagros Mountains had probably been sacked by the Syrian legion.

It is even possible that Abdullah had led his troops over the Zagros Mountains to seize the territory east of the mountains as far as Rai. Maybe this despicable guy has already reached an agreement with the Tang people, so he will break his promise and stab him in the back.

Where the Tang army is now, he has no idea at all. Where the Syrian legion is now, after completely occupying Aleppo, he also does not know. The danger was approaching, and Ibrahim was like a trapped beast in a cage, and the fighting spirit in his heart that had almost dissipated became even lower because of this new news.

"As long as you can defeat the Tang people! As long as you can defeat the Tang people! ”

"I have so many troops here, and the Tang people only have so much! As long as you can defeat the Tang people, you can defeat Abdullah when you turn back! ”

Ibrahim encouraged himself in his heart and prayed for Allah's protection.

Now inside and outside the city of Isfahan, there are three or four hundred thousand people gathered, and there are seventy or eighty thousand soldiers who can fight, and this fortified city is in hand. The Tang people came from afar, if they could not win as soon as possible, they would be blocked under the fortified city, and the veteran soldiers of the division would be tired, and they would inevitably not be able to last. At that point, the situation will be back in your hands.

Looking into the distance, at this time, Ibrahim hoped that the Tang people would appear as soon as possible.

I don't know where the Tang man is, and his nerves are highly tense every day, not only because the soldiers are extremely tired, but also for himself. Fighting with the Tang people as soon as possible and ending everything as soon as possible is his greatest hope at the moment.

……

Under Ibrahim's strict orders, the warriors inside and outside the city were not allowed to rest in peace, but life in Isfahan was largely unaffected.

The integration of a large number of people and resources has made this already prosperous city show a kind of sick prosperity, the people in the city do not have much to worry about the war, the cruelty of the Tang people is just a legend, the caliph is here with a large army, with the protection of Allah, the Tang people must have no return.

The people of Isfahan did not care about the impending battle, but their confidence in defeating the enemy was extremely high. With an additional population of 120,000, Isfahan's merchants are doing better business and the market is particularly prosperous.

If no army is coming, the peace will continue until the city's resources are exhausted.

In a corner of the city, Mi Xue tied a piece of information to Hai Dongqing's feet and opened her hand easily.

Haidong Qing rose up, soared into the sky like a projectile, and disappeared into the blue sky.

For her, it's something she does every day. As the Anxi army approached, her contact with the Anxi army became more frequent.

At the foot of the foot is a tall building, you can see the outside of the city, Xinghu woman looked into the distance, as if she had seen the dense Anxi army.

In fact, the army is over there, less than a hundred miles away from Isfahan, and the people of Isfahan don't know it, but she knows it clearly.

Hai Dongqing was no longer visible, and Mi Xue got off the tall building and walked into the streets and alleys of Isfahan.

It's a bustling city, and the people here are gentle and welcoming. Her face was no different from that of a Persian woman, and she did not look dazzling when she walked through the streets.

The market is bustling with activity, but it will soon be in ruins. Luxurious buildings will be razed to the ground, and enthusiastic people will shed their last drop of blood.

But Michelle didn't care, she didn't have any interest in anyone other than that man. She is only here to gather intelligence, and she doesn't care about the life and death of these people.

Her heart was cold, and only in front of him would there be some waves.

In a few days, I will see him again......

Michelle thought to herself, a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth, looking like the people in the city, gentle and enthusiastic.

……

On the other side of the Zagros Mountains, villages are burning.

After successfully defeating the enemy near Aleppo, the high-spirited Syrian legionnaires took advantage of the victory and sacked every village and town that had served Ibrahim.

This was originally the territory of Caliph Abdullah, but the people here turned to Ibrahim, and the punishment for the apostate was cruel and merciless.

Caliph Abdullah left Damascus and went to the battlefield himself. It was under his orders that the fighters of the Syrian Legion raised their butcher's knives against the betrayers.

In the foothills of the Zagros Mountains, Abdullah sat on horseback as bands of soldiers roared from the burning village and gathered in front of him.

These villages are the last villages west of the Zagros Mountains to have served Ibrahim.

Cruelty and ferocity can make the enemy fearful, this is the method he learned from the Tang general.

The messenger sent to meet the Tang general had not yet arrived, and Abdullah decided to lead his troops over the Zagros Mountains to join the Tang general.

Helping the Tang general get rid of Ibrahim will let him know how respectful he is.

Compared with the distant Tang people, Ibrahim is more hateful and should be eliminated as soon as possible.

He didn't have the heart to confront the Tang general, so he wanted to know what the Tang general thought. At the beginning of the joint attack on Kufa, the relationship between the two sides was good, and they could be said to be friends with each other, and he was willing to give up more territory to maintain this friendship.

When the army had regrouped, it followed Abdullah into the Zagros Mountains.
