To the joy of the Persians, in the face of the powerful Great Qin across Asia and Europe, Mudor has long since ceased to have the idea of recovering the honor and status of the Persian Empire, and he is now bent on taking refuge in the big ship of the Qin State to gain some benefits for himself and his brothers.

Darrow City.

Located in the middle and lower reaches of the Indus River, the city was the northern town of the Sunga Dynasty and an important node for the Sunga to control Sindh and the Suleiman Mountains.

The Sunga official who guarded the city was a former Mauryan minister, an ally of Psyamidus, a strong supporter of the Brahmin caste and the supreme religious leader of the sect in the Indus Valley.

In fact, the reason why the poor friend betrayed the giant car was because of the difference in faith. In the later period of the Mauryan Empire, especially in the later period of Ashoka's reign, its support for Buddhism was quite strong, while other sects, including Brahmins, were very suppressed, and this religious conflict eventually led to the fall of the Mauryan Empire.

After the establishment of the Sunga Dynasty, Brahmanism replaced Buddhism as the state religion, and a large number of Buddhists were persecuted, had to leave their homeland, to spread the teachings in strange places, Buddhists Shamansuri and others trekked thousands of mountains and rivers, from India to Chang'an, which is also the earliest record of Buddhism in the historical books about the eastward spread.

In order to cope with the possible resistance of the Buddhists, one of the two infantry regiments was stationed in the city, and the other was to liaise outside the city to be responsible for the security of the supply lines between the city and the outside world. Grazing can only be found in the foothills of the southern Suleyman Mountains.

It should be said that this arrangement of the poor friends, from the perspective of safety, is not much of a problem, Darrow City is located in the hinterland of the Indus River, is the core of the entire Xunga Kingdom, generally speaking, it is unlikely that large-scale hostile forces will appear, and the strength of more than 2,000 people in an infantry regiment is enough to maintain the security around Darrow, but he ignored one point. Sometimes overconfidence can lead to disaster.

The Persian routs of Mudor appeared in twos and threes near the city of Darrow, and their behavior was no different from that of ordinary refugee routs, with messy hair, dirty leather robes that could no longer be dirty, and the only season of travel was perhaps a small cloth robe under the flank, as for what was inside? No one knows about it but myself.

The Sunga were angry and helpless at the Persian or Bactrian refugees, angry that the bandits had sacked several villages and killed many of their compatriots, but they were disappointed. The indiscriminate killing and looting of the Persians often went to ruin, and the great nobles in the court had to use the power of the Persians to fight against the Qin State, how could they be severely punished.

In the glaring gaze of the Sunga civilians and slaves on the side. Mudor and a few of his cronies swaggered and waved to the Sunga soldiers defending the city, and entered the city of Daro.

Cities in India.

The biggest feature is that it is very messy, and the cow dung on the ground will be stepped on if you are not careful. In addition, there are many people, and as soon as they entered the city, they shook it for a few moments. That is, it blended into the crowd and was nowhere to be found.

――。

March 2, midnight.

It had been five days since Mudor had entered the city, and Feng Tang's advance troops, after several consecutive marches, had finally arrived at the outskirts of Daluo City before dawn.

The night is cold.

The soldiers of the Qin army did not care about fatigue, and marched with high intensity in the dark night with a high degree of consciousness, in this kind of unfamiliar place, once they fell behind, it meant death, once the face of the yellow race was exposed, the Indians were sluggish, they could react, this must be the intercourse of the Qin people.

According to the agreement with Mudor, three o'clock in the morning today is the time to launch an attack on Daluo City, when the time, Mudor and others set fire to the city in the city, while Feng Tang and others echoed outside the city, and the place where the two troops met was selected in the Xunjia baggage camp in the east of Daluo City.

As a transit point, the baggage of Darrow City is the main supply point of the Xunjia people in the Indus Valley, if Feng Tang and others can burn and destroy these baggage, not only the guards of the Solomon Pass, but even the troops on the front line of the Suleiman Mountains will encounter supply difficulties.

If you want to do it, you can do it once.

Feng Tang has put his life and death aside from the moment he stepped into the Indus Valley, for him, a lone army deep behind the enemy, no matter what he does, he may encounter danger, and he may be discovered by the enemy if he is cautious.

――。

In the city of Darrow.

In the silence of the streets, there was no one to be seen, only the cattle led at the intersection, gnawing on the dry grass roots, trying to accumulate some more nutrients in the body to cope with the secretion of nǎi juice at dawn.

Not far from the nǎi herd.

It is the place where the Xunjia people store their baggage, which is different from the various armor, weapons and food in the Qin army, the so-called baggage place of the Xunjia people is mainly food, that is, all kinds of cakes, of course, it is absolutely indispensable to have Jia slang powder, on the contrary, there are not many weapons, mainly wooden spears and bows.

Mu Duoer kept a calm face, and carefully counted the number of his subordinates, for fear that there would be one or two less, he was not afraid that his subordinates would be in any danger, but that he was worried that the plan would leak out, and in the enemy's city, he would play a trick of a black tiger to dig out his heart, which was only Qin people would be so crazy.

"Big brother, everyone is here, and there is no pull." A thin Persian in charge of counting the inventory approached Mudor and whispered a report.

"Okay, brothers, take the guys, and when the fire starts in a while, we will kill them from the east gate, and General Feng is already waiting there." Mudor commanded.

The flames flickered in the darkness of the night.

More than 100 of Mudor scattered with torches, and a long dragon passed by, and immediately the heavy wooden houses full of forage and wood and food were set on fire.

In just a few moments, the fire was raging. When Mudor and the others saw that the fire had been completed, they did not stop, but quickly ran towards the city gate, shouting as they ran: "It's on fire, it's on fire, go and put out the fire!" ”

The second half of the night is the time when people sleep most soundly. The Indians in the city heard someone shouting for a fire in the haze, and each of them ran out in a hurry, and then ran towards the place of fire with barrels and other objects to put out the fire.

The city was in chaos.

The errand friend who had just fallen asleep was woken up from his sleep by the attendant, hurriedly put on his robe and came out, looking up to see that half of the sky in the east of the city had been burned into a fiery red, not only the heavy ground was on fire, but even the houses in the east of the city were also affected, and the shouts of displaced civilians came from time to time.

"Hurry up and organize manpower, put out the fire, and don't let the fire burn to the west of the city." The poor friend screamed angrily. In the cities of Indians, the slums and the rich areas are completely separated, and the eastern part of the city is dominated by poor people, and the houses are simply made of wood, which is prone to continuous fires.

"Also, what's going on with this fire? Go find out, especially the Buddhists. "My friend has been an official in the Peacock Dynasty for many years, and his experience is not lacking, and in his heart, he has faintly thought that this fire is a little inexplicable, if no one deliberately set the fire, it is impossible to have such a big fire.

However, as a civilian official, Chayou's military acumen is much lower, and he can only think of one object, that is, the powerful Buddhists who were brutally suppressed by him. He could never have imagined that when there were Suleiman Mountains blocking and Solomon and other passes were still in his hands, the Qin army would boldly send a surprise army to reach Luocheng deeply.

Poor judgment error.

Gave Mudor a chance to get out of town.

After discovering the fire, the soldiers guarding the city were hesitant at first to block the city gate to prevent suspicious people in the city from escaping, but later learned from their friends that the fire might have been caused by the Buddhists.

What if you don't evict you?

After this fire, the food in the city of Darrow will be very scarce, and the inhabitants of the city will not have enough to eat, and how can they have any surplus to entertain these poor Persian neighbors.

The Persians set fire to the villages outside the city and plundered them, and the soldiers defending the city could pretend not to know about these things, but if such an incident happened in the city, they were duty-bound, and if there was a conflict, it would be difficult to clean up.

Feng Tang waited outside for a while, thinking that he was going to storm the city gate and cooperate with Mu Duo and others to fight the Qin army's generals, but he was surprised to find that this guy Mu Duo had actually left the city from under the noses of the Indian soldiers.

"Mudor, you and your men have to work hard to reconnoiter the situation of the Sunga infantry regiment, and we will follow behind, looking for a suitable place to ambush them." Feng Tang's face flickered in the firelight, giving people a grim and mysterious aura.

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly.

Feng Tang temporarily changed his mind.

In the city of Darrow.

There was only one infantry regiment of the Indians, and the other infantry regiment was stationed in the western part of the city, and after learning this important information from Mudor, Feng Tang immediately decided to abandon the attack on the already worthless Darrow City, and instead raided the Indian infantry unit outside the city.

The best way to protect oneself is to annihilate the enemy's living forces, on the contrary, an enemy town like Daro, even if the Qin army succeeds in the attack, it is impossible to occupy it for a long time, and due to the panic of the inhabitants of the city, the Qin army may also fall into a civilian war.
