As a result of Ujong's surprise attack, the Mamluk Special Committee also put aside its internal disputes and ordered Katona, as the commander of the front, to take full responsibility for the front.

……

"How? Do the Aries still want to continue? ”

Katona asked with concern, and Ibrahim had a higher say in this matter than he did.

"Yes, but the other party's attitude is not resolute."

Ibrahim responded that the contact with the Aries people has always been in progress,

"When the envoy went out, the senior officers of the Aries people were shouting, but Wuzong didn't say a word, I think this is a precursor to Wuzong's desire to negotiate peace."

"Why?"

Katona asked, puzzled,

"Because that's not what he's for."

Ibrahim replied helplessly,

"Uzong has just ascended to the position of emir, and the trust in this emir in the country is not very high, and he has always wanted to regain military power in the country, which has clashed with these high-ranking officers."

"And this battle, the enemy has had a smooth journey, this group of soldiers has gained a lot of benefits, and Wuzong will not want to see their power expand again."

"Oh?"

Katona's eyes lit up, and an idea came out of his mind.

"So, we can negotiate directly with Wuzong?!"

"It stands to reason that yes, but Wuzong also has to take into account the mood in the country, and it is definitely not possible to go directly to him."

"Then do it in secret, don't alarm the others, is this possible?"

Nodding, Iprahim agreed, ready to start contacting Uzon.

"However, before that, I think we still have to fight the Aries people, and if we don't show our strength, Uzong has no reason to talk to us."

Katona pondered for a while, and finally made a decision,

"Yes, this matter is up to you, and if there is anything you want me to do, you can bring it up at any time."

Ibrahim saluted Katona, turned and left.

Immediately after Ujong launched a surprise attack on the Mamluks, the Special Committee mobilized a number of troops from within the country, and the large families contributed their own Mamluks to the battlefield.

On a sunny day, the armies of both sides inevitably took a stand under the city of Damascus.

Uzong rode in front of the formation, followed by his deputy, looked at the Mamluks not far away, and asked casually,

"Do you know who they are?"

The deputy hurriedly said,

"They are the most skilled armies in the entire Arab world, but they are the least commanding armies."

Uzon laughed, satisfied with the deputy's words,

"Let's see if this group of Mamluks has been macerated by the richness of the Nile."

This battle was different from the battle of the Byzantines, it was a typical cavalry duel, the main inhabitants of the Aries dynasty were nomads, and agriculture was in a secondary position, so the army of Aries was also very good at horse archery, and it was not inferior to the Mamluks.

After all, the Mamluks' homeland was in the mountains of the Caucasus, which was now under the jurisdiction of the Aries dynasty.

As the horn sounded, the cavalry began to start, slowly accelerating, and when it was approaching, the Aries cavalry spread out to both sides, and the formation was in the shape of a half-moon, which was a typical tactic of light cavalry, and a rain of arrows came out of the hands of the Aries, this tactic was once used by the Mongols on a large scale and achieved great results.

However, due to the heavy armor on the Mamluks, the rain of arrows had little effect, and a small number of unlucky people were hit by the rain of arrows and fell off their horses screaming, however, the Mamluks were not helpless about it.

I saw the Mamluks draw the javelin behind their backs and wave it vigorously, and the javelin came to the Aries with a sound of breaking through the air.

"Poof"

The javelins were deeply inserted into the flesh and blood, and some even penetrated the body, and the flesh and blood splashed on the battlefield in an instant, because the Aries people wore very little armor, they had no resistance in the face of the flying javelins, and they basically died when they touched it, without exception.

It's not that there is no armor, it's mainly that the Aries people are not used to wearing armor, they are still used to traveling light, but today's events are obvious and will become a lingering nightmare for them.

Although the casualties are heavy, the will to fight of the Aries people has not been lost, and the harsh environment of the Caucasus mountains has developed the nature of the Caucasians not to give in easily, and most people who live in the poor mountains and bad water environment will have a ruthlessness, not only to the enemy, but also to themselves.

Soon, at the behest of the commanders of both sides, the two armies, which had suffered heavy casualties, gathered their troops and returned to their camps, agreeing to fight again another day.

"It's not going to go on like this."

In the Aries camp, a general shouted,

"Today alone, more than half of my tribe has been killed and wounded, and I can't fight any more."

"yes, yes."

The people in the tent echoed each other, apparently frightened by today's battle.

Wuzong sat on the top position, with a gloomy face on the surface, but in fact, his heart blossomed.

"You all think so?"

His eyes were not good, and everyone didn't know what Wuzong meant for a while, so they didn't dare to speak.

"Someone, fork him out for me, kill him."

Wu Zong's tone was stern, and there was an instant opposition in the tent.

"Enough, what do you want to do?"

"At the beginning of the war, I didn't expect some people to confuse the public and try to mess with our army, you said that you suffered heavy casualties, and the others were very relaxed?"

"Now that we have finally hit Damascus, should we just go back like this? Are you not afraid of being ridiculed? ”

The questioning made everyone have nothing to say anymore, so they could only let the man scream and be dragged out, as a typical warning to everyone.

"And now?"

Someone was bold and cautiously asked,

"Stop, there is no need to continue the siege of Damascus, let them come and go freely."

Wuzong closed his eyes and motioned for everyone to go out, and after everyone went out, he showed a smug smile alone.

After a few more days, Uzong suddenly gathered the people together,

"Guys, the Mamluks have put forward the conditions."

Wu Zong first looked around and saw that everyone was honest, and he was very satisfied.

"The Mamluks are ready to give us a large sum of money to withdraw from the army, you see, how is it?"

"Willing to do your bidding."

Everyone shouted in unison, and they really didn't want to fight again, in fact, for the Mamluks, the last battle was also the sunset, and they couldn't stand it if they did it again.

Receiving the Aries people's request for peace, Katona was also overjoyed,

"Since the Aries have decided to make peace, let's talk!"

"In addition, if you report to the country, you will say that the front line is safe."

For Catona, the exploits of repelling the Aries are enough, enough to gag the mouth of the country,

In fact, the Aries people did not retreat only because of this heavy casualty, mainly because there was not enough food, the mountains really did not produce much grain, and it was difficult to transport, and the newly occupied Aleppo obviously could not be transformed into national strength, and the battle line was long, while the Mamluks waited for work, sat on a fortified city, and had a great advantage over the Aries people, and it was not surprising that Uzon wanted to retreat.
