Chapter 649: Losing both

The sudden arrival of heavy cavalry upset all illusions of the Arabs' achievements in one fell swoop! What's even more terrifying is that this heavy cavalry unit is rapidly cutting through the entire battlefield!

If once they are allowed to highlight the entire battlefield, it means that the opponent can turn around and cut the entire battlefield again! Then their rout will be irretrievable!

"Kaka! Hassim! "Sauld can only hope for his most important general!

Hassim and his soldiers, who had just come to support, were at the peak of their morale, and Kaka's several performances as gods made the soldiers worship him.

Both men were aware of the terrible situation on the battlefield and they both shouted: "Warriors of Allah, it is time to show your courage against Allah!" The Caliph is watching us, charging at me! Allah is greater! ”

Kaka and Hassim let out a roar from different directions, and soon the roar continued to spread among the Arab soldiers.

"Allah is greater!" With a roar of rage, Kaka and Hasim led the army to block the front of the heavy cavalry!

The Arabs, with red eyes, with terrible morale, used casualties to block the enemy's blade! The two sides collided in an instant, the impact of the heavy cavalry was too great, even if they were all warriors of Allah, but the desperate Arabs still delayed the charge of the heavy cavalry with their lives, even if they paid a heavy price.

But it gave the surrounding brothers a chance to surround it and abolish this heavy cavalry unit.

Most of the soldiers in the heavy cavalry unit were timid, they had never seen such a terrifying enemy, although the adrenaline secreted by hormones on the battlefield made them continue to attack the enemy, but when the fear came to their hearts, their combat effectiveness naturally decreased.

No way, they are not elite cavalry. The most elite of them were only a thousand Is'ai guards who had been trained for a long time, and the rest were second-rate guards who had been temporarily transferred, and even some soldiers who could only ride horses.

These factors gave the Arabs a respite.

The third day of the battle between the two sides was even bloodier than in history, and it was not until the night was completely over that the Arabs managed to get rid of the entanglement of the Persians!

True, it was the Arabs who took the initiative to get out of the entanglement.

Because they suffered too many casualties during the day today! In the past two days, they have exchanged less than 10,000, about 8,000 casualties for more than 20,000 casualties in Persia.

But they originally had only 30,000 men, Kaka had brought less than 2,000, and Hassim's support today had brought another 4,000, for a total of 36,000 men, and apart from casualties, they had only 28,000 men before today's battle.

But during the day they paid the terrible price of at least 15,000 casualties in order to stop the charge of the heavy cavalry, and now the Arabs have less than 13,000 men left!

Today, the casualties of the Persians are estimated to be less than theirs, even if they are the same, there are 15,000 casualties, but the Persians originally had 40,000, and the 6,000 who support today, even if they also suffer 15,000 casualties, the enemy still has 30,000!

More than twice as much! It's more about morale!

Now that the morale of the Persian army was high, their opportunity to defeat the enemy had been missed.

Ostam is in good spirits! Sure enough, the appearance of this mounted cavalry completely turned the situation around! Although this hoplite cavalry has been counted as many as four thousand casualties! But there were less than five hundred deaths! The remaining three thousand five hundred are wounded! The armor on their bodies provides them with more than enough protection!

Although these 3,500 men could not participate in the next battle, their armor could be taken off, allowing Ostam to quickly rearm and assemble a heavy cavalry of at least 5,000 men!

The advantage is mine! Ostam completely relaxed, although they suffered heavy losses in this decisive battle, he got the most important time! This meant that the Persians could recruit more strong men from all over the country to train into soldiers, and the Arabs lost these elite soldiers, which meant that they lost the ability to attack on their own!

If they want to stop such a large-scale invasion again, it will be impossible!

More importantly, the victors have the right to clean up the battlefield, their defeat in the first two days has allowed them to give up most of the battlefield, their own living space has been compressed, they have retreated to the river, and many of the armor and weapons of their dead soldiers have been taken away by the enemy.

But today, the entire battlefield was taken back by them, and the Arabs retreated several kilometers to get rid of them.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a valley behind them, and for fear of some ambush, Ostam would have wanted to fight at night.

Sayld quickly summoned Kaka and Hassim, both of whom had been wounded in today's war, but fortunately they were slightly wounded.

"General Lion, what are we going to do?" Kaka asked. Said was hailed as a lion by the Prophet Muhammad.

"Tomorrow, we will launch another attack, and if we can't do anything, we will have to retreat." Said took a deep breath and said, he knew that all the elite of Arabia were drawn here, such as Kaka, Hasim came voluntarily, in fact, even Saed came to support.

The reason why they could not come here at one time was because they were all drawn from other battlefields, and it is conceivable that the current situation in Arabia is not so advantageous.

If they take Ctesiphon in one fell swoop after the victory, it means that they have captured the best land near the valley of the two rivers, which can be a sign of more soldiers and more people to Allah's faith, but if they can't take it, then they can't be here.

Because behind the enemy is Ctesiphon, which is the rich valley of the two rivers, with logistical support such as food.

And they, although they came all the way to the war, there was no shortage of supplies, it was because they were constantly having new brothers joining, and these brothers provided them with logistical supplies, and once they had a long-term confrontation here, their logistics would soon have problems.

Because many brothers in the rear are hungry and supporting them.

The Arabs have not lost a battle, and if they have been defeated, they will come back with the ultimate victory under the watchful eye of Allah.

The mood of the three people was a little heavy, and Hasim was silent for a moment and said: "I asked someone to bring back a sentence of armor on the battlefield, this is not Persian armor. ”

Hassim shouted a few words outside the tent, and soon two soldiers entered the tent carrying a bloodstained suit of armor, which, when placed on the ground in front of them, was visibly different from the Persian armor in the light of the fire.

"This is Datang's armor!" Said's face was a little ugly, he had seen these armor styles during the day, but he didn't have time to think about the tense situation, and when he saw this armor at this time, he thought about it.
