Chapter 267: Countermeasures

Qu Dibo led an army of 50,000 to attack, and the Persian king Nineshi hurriedly called the prime minister to discuss against Qu Dibo.

Persia is far less powerful than Dashi, so it is necessary to adopt a defensive strategy, wear down with the opponent, and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Fortunately, this was considered long ago, and with the help of the Tang army, fortifications were built with cement and three lines of defense were established.

No matter how strong the Great Food Army is, as long as they hide in the fortifications, the Great Food will have nothing to do with them, and when the reinforcements arrive, it will be time for them to counterattack.

"Your Royal Highness, we have strong fortifications, so we don't have to worry about the Great Food coming in at all, we just need to wait until they run out of food, and then we will retreat."

The Persian prime minister saluted the Nigneshi and suggested that he should hold on to the fortifications and not get out.

As long as the Great Food Army can't cross the fortifications, they don't have to worry at all, they will encounter the situation of losing the country again.

As long as they can block the attack of the Great Food Army, they will send people to negotiate with the Great Food in the future to fight for sufficient benefits for the Persians and ensure the stability of the Khorasan region.

They didn't know that whether they won this battle or not, the Great Eclipse would not negotiate with them, let alone allow a dynasty that had already perished to restore the country.

If the complete restoration of Persia is successful, the people in the areas that the Great Eclipse once conquered, will stand up against the Great Eclipse, and in the long run, the Persian state will not be allowed to exist.

This time, Da Shi sent troops to the Khorasan region, which is inevitable!

"The Great Food Army has reached the doorstep, shouldn't we fight back?"

Ninishi asked, looking at the prime minister in front of him.

If you just shrink and survive, and live with the enemy, it is better to be like a warrior and take up arms to fight the enemy.

You are willing to grovel, and others are not willing to accept it, rather than living in humiliation, it is better to die heroically on the battlefield!

"Nope! Fighting back is not good for us!"

The prime minister replied categorically, the Persian army was no match for the Great Food Army at all, and the main general of the other side was the famous general of the Great Food, Qudibo Ibn.

The so-called counterattack, in the eyes of the Prime Minister, is nothing more than a stupid act of rushing to send people away.

Rather than going to die in vain, it is better to retain the living force and plan for the future.

Before having the ability to defeat the other party, it is the best choice to be a man, and it is much wiser to give away the head than to give away the head if you can't beat it.

"Why? We have strong foreign aid, can we only be beaten passively? "

Ninishi asked angrily, he didn't understand why the prime minister was blocking him?

The Sassanid Empire had been at war with the Byzantines for many years, resulting in a weakening of the state and a weakened army, losing to the emerging Umayyad dynasty.

In addition, without strong foreign help, the Sassanid Dynasty collapsed, and its strength was inferior to others, so it could only choose to shrink, and there was nothing to say.

But now it's different, the success of the restoration of Persia, relying on the identity of the Persian royal family, has gathered a lot of Persian hearts, plus with the help of the powerful Tang Dynasty, why should you retreat like before?

Isn't it time to be ashamed?

"We can't take the initiative, because if we do, it will give Qu Dibo an opportunity to take advantage of it and put us in a desperate situation."

The Prime Minister shook his head, he didn't agree with Nirvana's idea, in his opinion it was a stupid, death-seeking act.

With Persia's current combat strength, it is not the opponent of the Great Food Army at all, and Qu Dibo is extremely cunning.

If you hide behind the fortifications, it is fine, once you go out to fight the other side, you will definitely fall into the trap of the other side, and the most important thing is that the Persian army is not at all the opponent of the army of the Great Eclipse.

Although there are generals from the Tang Dynasty to help train, and the combat power has improved a lot, the equipment is still inferior to the Great Food, and the combat effectiveness is still much worse than that of the Great Food Army.

It is an indisputable fact that it is inferior to its opponent in terms of combat power, and there is nothing to hide.

The most important point is that the Great Food has ruled the Khorasan region for decades, not to mention the stability of the people here, but also the desire of many people to eat the Great Food.

Relying on the identity of the Sassanid royal family, the cohesion of the people is limited, and of course, the people at the bottom do not care who rules the land at all, and the most important thing is to ensure that their interests can be protected.

Fortunately, in this regard, Ninishi did a good job, and coupled with the status of the prince of the Sassanid Empire, this did not lead to a popular rebellion.

"So what are we going to do?"

Ninishi felt that what the prime minister said made sense, and asked the prime minister if there was a solution.

The Prime Minister thought for a moment and said, "Please write a letter to inform our allies of the situation here." ”

"Ask our allies for support, and with allies joining, we have hope of repelling the Great Food Army."

Nirvana nodded: "Good! I'm going to write to my allies right now, asking Tocharian and other countries to send troops as soon as possible to help us defeat the Great Eclipse. "

"Your Highness, the most important thing is to write a letter to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, only with the support of the Anxi Metropolitan Protector, we can win this battle."

The Prime Minister said again.

Other countries are willing to help Persia, firstly, they are worried about the eastward expansion of the Great Food, and secondly, they are looking at the face of the Tang Dynasty.

Without the participation of the powerful Tang Army, no matter how many people come, it will be a plate of scattered sand, and sooner or later it will be divided and disintegrated by Qu Dibo, broken one by one, and finally lead to the collapse of the whole situation.

If the Tang army joined, the situation would be different, which would be beneficial to Persia.

The only thing the Persian Kingdom can rely on is the Tang Dynasty.

To be precise, only the army of the Tang Dynasty can defeat the Great Food, or even defeat the Great Food.

Even if you don't write a letter to Tocharian and other small countries, you must write a letter to Guo Yuanzhen, the protector of the capital of Anxi, and only with his support can you fight against the Great Eclipse. m.

"Good! I'm writing to ask for help. ”

Ni Nishi answered, asked people to bring pen and paper, wrote a letter to all allies, and sent people to Tocharian and other small countries, as well as the capital of Anxi to protect Guo Yuanzhen.

"The letter has been sent out, I have decided to go to the front, and this place will be handed over to you!"

The Ni Nishi planned to go to the front line to supervise the battle, and by the way, to boost morale, the task of sitting in the Persian capital of Jiling City was entrusted to his prime minister and deputy governor.

Jiling City is not only the capital of Persia, but also the seat of the Persian Governor's Mansion of the Tang Dynasty.

At the same time, it is also the closest city to the front line, and if the front line cannot withstand it, the city will also be in danger of falling.

"Your Highness, rest assured, with me here, it will be foolproof!"

The prime minister saluted and said that as long as there are no accidents on the front line, this place will be as stable as Mount Tai.

Let him sit here only to stabilize the hearts of the people, and at the same time, to guard against those who convert to Allah and prevent them from rebelling.

The Ni Ni Division mounted his horse, waved goodbye to the Prime Minister, and set off for the front with his own guards.

Some people died, but not completely......
