"General, the mission has failed, and the national teacher has also been sacrificed." Uzi, who fled back to the barracks in embarrassment, drank a large sip of mare's milk wine, and his heart, which was beating too much because of the fright, gradually calmed down.

"I have long advised the national teacher not to continue to carry out this boring action, but he just didn't listen, wasted the empire's time and money, and put his own life into it." General Shaha said coldly, "This kind of thing is still reliable for our military, let alone a small temple, even if it is a country with a population of one million, I have the ability to raze the ground." ”

As an excellent representative of the military of the Timurid Empire, Shaha has long been dissatisfied with the national teacher, relying on a little ability to think that Lao Tzu is the first in the world, and he doesn't look at anyone in his eyes, and with those hidden assassination tricks, he actually climbed to the position of the national teacher, not only bigger than his own title, but also more respectful. "This is disrespectful to my half-life horse, and it is also unfair to those sacrificed soldiers." Shah has thought this more than once.

"The sacred cow of the Nile tribe, that is, the guy who killed the national teacher, asked me to come back and spread the word, saying that they are ready, it depends on whether you dare to go, general." Uzi didn't deliberately add oil and vinegar, and the sacred cow was indeed very arrogant.

"Do you dare to go? There is only one place in this world that I dare not go, and that is the Chinese Empire. Shah said proudly, "I don't care about any other country, and sooner or later they will submit to me." ”

"General, don't be careless, the arrogant soldiers will be defeated!" Uzi is well aware of Shah's temper, and the more he advises him to be cautious, the more he will anger him, and it will be easier for a person who has lost his mind to lose the battle. It's not surprising that Uzi has this idea, he is a confidant of the national teacher, if the military wins easily, wouldn't it seem that his gang is too incompetent?

"Fight me? Hit the stone with an egg, don't measure yourself! Shah looked up to the sky and laughed, not that he underestimated the enemy, but that he did have the capital of pride, this iron cavalry team all came from Shah's hometown of the Pamir steppe, grew up on horseback since childhood, and the art of riding and archery was unrivaled in the world, even the Mongols did not dare to confront them head-on, all these years of fighting in the east and west, the two hands of the destroyed countries could not be counted, from the Aral Sea to the Persian Gulf, helping Sudan to build a huge empire from Delhi (present-day India) to Damascus (present-day Syria), although the Nile tribe was superior in numbers, But it's just a group of untrained rabble, and it may be okay to fight in a group, but if you really go to the battlefield, it would be a failure not to kill them.

The sky is white, the iron tower stands on the sand dunes and looks into the distance, the desert in the early morning is so quiet, so magnificent, but unfortunately all this will soon be replaced by a tragic war.

"Big brother, I've already deployed it according to your requirements." The camel's face was excited, this was his first battle since he became a priest, and he must fight beautifully, "Are you sure that the enemy will come?" ”

"It's already here!" Iron Tower said lightly, the sound of thunderous hooves had already reached his ears ten miles away, and then a dark cloud appeared at the end of the desert, hiding the rising sun below the horizon.

"It's strange, it's the rising sun, but why is there dark clouds? It was like it was going to rain. The camel was puzzled.

"Brother, keep your eyes open and see clearly."

The sound of hooves rumbled, the yellow sand covered the sky, and the camels were shocked into cold sweat, what kind of dark cloud is this? It was clearly a row of murderous cavalry. They were covered in hard armor all over their bodies, and even the horses under their crotches were covered with thick iron armor, and bows and arrows were like scratching their boots for them, without any threat.

"What? Scared? The tower laughed.

The camel licked his dry lips, and if he wasn't afraid, it would be a fake.

"Don't worry, everything goes according to plan." The tower patted him on the shoulder, "Ignition!" ”

The camel rattled an arrow with its trembling hand, and soon a cloud of smoke rose from the desert, enveloping the entire land in a haze of smoke from the ignition of dried cow dung.

"Report to the general, there is a thick fog ahead, and the view is blocked." The spies came to report.

"Stop!" Shah ran up to the sand dunes and looked down at the past, perhaps because the hill was blocking the smoke, and the temple could be seen looming in the smoke.

"Full speed ahead, pass under that mountain." Shah decisively gave the order.

"General, will there be a fraud?" Uzi was a little worried, not that he was afraid that Shah's army would be defeated, but that the sacred cow might be hidden in a corner of the smoke, and his heart was a little furious when he thought of him like a god descending to kill all directions.

Shaha sneered, "I'm not afraid of an ambush, no army in the desert dares to fight us head-on, let alone a group of civilians?" ”

The prey has taken the bait! Iron Tower had a smile on his face, and there was a hint of coldness in his smile.

Fifty thousand iron horsemen rushed towards the hill with great vigour, unimpeded along the way, and soon entered the narrow valley. Suddenly, there was a lot of smoke in front of them, and it was pitch black everywhere, and the rows of war horses that rushed in front fell into the pit, and the ones behind were still coming, and for a while, people turned over on their backs, and countless people trampled to death.

At this time, the rolling stones and trees on the mountains on both sides fell like hail, and this thing was a big killer in the crowd, and it could kill more than a dozen people if you threw it casually. With a "boom" sound, many large wooden barrels rolled down the hill, fell to the ground and fell to pieces, and a pungent liquid flowed out.

"It's not good, it's tung oil!" The cavalry was shocked.

The tower was thrown lightly, and a torch landed accurately on the oil drum, and with a "boom" of fire, the fire burned brightly, and then more torches were thrown down, and the valley was blazing red, and even the red sun in the sky was eclipsed.

The once secluded valley was now a horrible slaughterhouse, with countless firemen struggling, wailing, and finally turning into piles of coke.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Shah Lao burst into tears, his proud Iron Cavalry was dealt a devastating blow without even seeing the enemy's face, how could he go back to see Su Dan? He drew his sword and held it across his neck, his eyes closed and ready to kill himself.

"General, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, don't do stupid things." Uzi snatched the sword from Shah's hand, "We protect you from leaving." ”

Uzi was scared, this was not the result he wanted. He knew very well that if the national teacher and the general were killed one after another, with Su Dan's fiery temper, all those who participated in the operation would be executed, including himself, of course, so saving the general was his only way to survive at present.

"Leave? Can we still get away? Shah looked at the few remaining soldiers around him, his eyes were full of despair, less than 10,000 of the 50,000 iron horsemen survived, how to go? Where to go?

"General, I've been lurking here for a few months, I'm more or less familiar with the terrain, and from here all the way to the temple, as long as I destroy the icon, even if I lose, I'm not so defeated." Uzi persuaded.

"You have a point." Shah rolled over and said, "Boys, rush out with me." ”

……

"What's going on? It's almost over there, why haven't you signaled me yet? "Thor was very dissatisfied, he divided more than 4,000 brothers into two groups according to the instructions of the tower, and ambushed them at the beginning and end of the valley respectively. I told him a long time ago that cleaning the battlefield is not our specialty, has he forgotten?

A clear roar rose to the sky, and Thor's spirit was lifted, finally here! He raised his hooves and rushed forward, followed by an army of two thousand murderous buffaloes.

"General, the front is it." Uzi exclaimed excitedly.

Shah was in ecstasy, and it was hard to quench his hatred for not razing the temple of the Nile to the ground. Suddenly, a buffalo rushed towards him, and with a flick of his head, he was thrown off his horse, and before he could come to his senses, he was hit hard in the stomach, and then ...... And then there was no then.

The fire was extinguished, the black smoke cleared, the wind swept up the yellow sand, and everything was calm again. The iron cavalry of the Timurid Empire disappeared into the desert without a trace, as if they had never been here.

In front of the temple, the tower is treating the wounded with his hands and feet, and the camel is beating on the side, in fact, with his medical skills, he can completely stand alone. In total, more than 1,000 Nile tribes were killed and wounded in this battle, all of them by the indiscriminate arrows flying in the air, which was completely acceptable compared to the total annihilation of the enemy's army.

"Big brother, are you interested in visiting the temple?" After sending the last wounded away, the camel warmly extended an invitation, the holiest place of the Nile tribe, to which only the most distinguished guests would be invited, otherwise they would all be considered trespassers, and what would await them would be dangerous and complex organs and a siege of hundreds of thousands of Nile people.

"It's an honor!" Accompanied by camels, the tower walked into the temple, and the walls were carved with many exquisite murals, all of which were human and animal faces, some were wolf heads, some were eagle heads, and of course, the most important were bull heads, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, and it seemed that the Nile tribe worshipped those animals with great strength. The tower walked and looked at it with great interest, and when his eyes came to the relief in the center, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement, "Sphinx, this ...... Isn't this the strange lion that appeared in your dream? How did he end up here? ”

"This is the Sphinx, the patron saint of our Nile tribe." The camel looked adoring.

"Patronus Sphinx? Do you know where he came from? The tower was overjoyed, the purpose of his coming here was to solve the mystery of the dream, he was worried about not knowing where to start to investigate, he didn't expect to see his statue in the temple, and what was even more surprising was that the camel actually knew that this was really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to come! Maybe this is the providence of God, God has already arranged everything for the tower, and the camel is the key person.
