Chapter 319: A Little Deer in the Mountains

The Western Regions and the middle of the river are densely covered with vast sand seas. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Further west, the terrain rises sharply to the endless Persian Plateau.

The mighty Sassanid Persian Empire has stood on the plateau for thousands of years, and even though the families that control it have changed many times, they still adhere to their old beliefs and cultural heritage.

Sassanid Persia was almost wiped out when the Arabs were carrying their teachings, but they resisted the invasion of the Arabs until the mighty Arab Empire was torn apart by civil strife, and the Ayyubid dynasty of Egypt claimed to have inherited the Arab legal system, while the original Arab core was divided into countless small states, which survived in the confrontation between Egypt and Persia.

When the sea of sand turned into a continuous high mountain, Wu Feng knew that they had penetrated deep into the Persian border.

Persia was not without territory in the Transoxiana region, but its jurisdiction was very lenient, basically collecting tribute from local lords to enrich its own treasury and achieve feudal rule.

But on the vast plateau, each province had a strict system of administration, with the governors closely rally around the king, and the most powerful Janissaries sitting in the center to suppress the four sides.

As a king-keeper, Bogard has done a good job at least in terms of domestic affairs. In Persia, it is far from being as rampant as bandits in the Western Regions controlled by the Dragon Slayer, and the reason why there are many bandits is only because the terrain of the Persian Plateau is more complicated.

"This is the Kopet Mountains, where Uncle Boggard's grandfather, Khorasan, struck a blow at the thriving Western Liao Empire, which indirectly led to the collapse of the Western Liao. ”

Luo Sijia introduced to Wu Feng.

Wu Feng was not unaware of this matter.

The Turks had established a powerful Turkic alliance in the Anatolian Peninsula, threatened Byzantium for a long time, and formed a three-legged situation with Persia and Egypt in the Western Desert.

However, when they found that neither Persia, Egypt, nor Byzantium could be easily destroyed, the Turkic League set its sights on the fledgling Western Liao in the Transoxiana region.

As a result, under the head-on attack of the first generation of British lord Yelu Dashi, in the Battle of Katwan, the Turki Alliance suffered an unprecedented defeat, and the grandfather of the first generation of the war god Scurry was also killed in that battle.

After the battle, the remnants of the Turkic League were defeated and retreated to Anatolia, and strong civil strife broke out immediately, and the alliance soon broke down into many large and small tribes, which had to be attached to the two great powers of Egypt and Persia, as the princes of the two rivers and the Arabian Peninsula did.

But it became an opportunity for Scurry to rise, and through the right and left, he started as a small tribal leader, constantly expanded his power, reunited the Tuli Alliance, and took advantage of the civil strife in Egypt to win more with less, swallowing Egypt in one fell swoop, and becoming the overlord of the Western Desert.

And the fate of Xiliao is also very interesting, Yelu Dashi's generation of heroes died soon after the victory, because of the failure to rush the pass, his heir does not have the talent of his father, but has an arrogance far beyond his father.

"My father, who has no solid foundation, can destroy the Turkic Alliance that has been established for hundreds of years in one fell swoop. What's more, Persia has just recovered from civil strife, and the guy named Khorasan is probably just a waste who can only pinch soft persimmons. ”

So this man went all out and gathered almost all of the troops in the river to attack Persia.

The price was that after being beaten by Khorasan and fleeing like a dog, he led the elite Xingong army to chase all the way to the capital of Western Liao, Broken Leaf City.

The old and spicy Khorasan knew that the city of Broken Leaves was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so he burned and looted around him, but he relied on his clever maneuver to win over the tribes attached to the Western Liao, and even did not hesitate to give heavy gifts, or marry the daughters of the governors and generals under his command to marry.

Under the policy of carrots and sticks, the Western Liao, which was strong in the outside and strong in the middle, soon collapsed, and its power shrank more and more, and Khorasan also successfully expanded its power to the Hezhong region.

The powerful Western Liao could not escape the fate of sudden decline and decline.

Today, the descendants of Yelu Dashi have long since abandoned the title of emperor, because they only have the city of Broken Leaf City, and the rest of the region is independent.

It was also this battle that made Khorasan the "Wolf King of Sasani" famous, and his heir Bogard, in the light of his grandfather, finally looked overshadowed.

Although it is summer, it is still a little cool in the dense forest on this plateau.

The wind suddenly became stronger, with a slight fishy smell.

"Left Wing Cavalry No. Three, move to the upper right, ready to release arrows!"

"Right flank cavalry No. 6, quickly retreat and intercept the fleeing enemy!"

A childish voice sounded in the middle of the jungle, but it seemed very calm.

"This voice is a little familiar...... "Rosegar muttered suddenly.

Wu Feng said in his heart: That's right, not long after entering the Persian border, you met an acquaintance.

However, the cavalry that could move agilely in the dense forest really surprised Wu Feng.

He flew swiftly and saw a band of knights on horseback, but always avoiding the thick trees, and a band of bandits surrounded by them.

The bandits were nimble, relying on the cover of the trees to try to escape, but the commanders of the knights, apparently a good squad commander, had laid a tight net that left the bandits with no way to escape.

Persia was known for its elite cavalry archers, especially in the Parthian era, which preceded the Sassanid Empire.

Even if these knights were riding fast in the dense forest, they could bend their bows and shoot arrows, and in the dense rain of arrows, one by one the bandits screamed and spilled blood and fell to the ground.

The bushes and giant trees could not protect them, because the knights surrounded and hunted them down at 360 degrees.

As Wu Feng continued to walk a few feet, he finally saw the appearance of the commander.

It turned out to be a little girl of about thirteen years old, riding a small horse, with a delicate antler helmet, a pair of pigtails, and a very cute red face.

Moreover, she has black hair and black eyes and oriental-style facial features, obviously of yellow-skinned blood.

This is not surprising, there are many yellow-skinned people in the Western Desert and the West Pole, and many of them are still in high positions. So much so that there is a saying that the white-skinned people just invaded from the other world thousands of years ago and forcibly occupied a large area of land for the yellow-skinned people.

When Luo Sijia saw this little girl carved in pink, she couldn't help but be stunned: "Little deer...... Is that you?"

The little girl was also stunned: "You...... Are you Sister Rosegaard?"

"yes. Rosegar nodded: "Little deer, aren't you supposed to be by Uncle Bogard's side now? How did you come to the border? You are only thirteen years old this year, and it is not yet time to lead the troops into battle......

She turned her head and whispered to Wu Feng: "This is Lu Lingxi, the daughter of the Lu family, a meritorious family that followed the King of Khorasan, but this poor child's parents died early and was raised by Uncle Bogard......"

Lu Lingxi was stunned, and then replied seriously: "Because the deer can only protect our country if it grows up quickly." ”

After all, she is a little girl, who is orderly when she directs the cavalry to kill the bandits, and she seems capable and steady, but at this moment she immediately looks innocent and simple.

She suddenly clenched her pink little fist, and said with some anger: "That thief of Scurry's old dog is always plotting against our homeland! (To be continued.) )
