Chapter 1534 News from the Holy City

Medina, the capital of the Arab Empire

"Asshole, what are you guys doing? Have you forgotten what you are here to do? You haven't installed these things for so long, do you want to wait for me to do this myself? Don't forget who you are, If you can't finish these tasks before sunset, I will chop off your hands and feet."

A soldier from the Arab Empire said loudly, there are about a thousand slaves here. These people were plundered by the Arab Empire from other places. At this moment, they are all pulling in various supplies to prepare for the war. .

The slaves have been working for a long time. In the weather with temperatures reaching over 30 degrees, many of them can hardly stand it. But if you stop, the whip next to you will hit you immediately. Don’t expect it. These soldiers of the Arab Empire will pity you. In their eyes, you are no different than an animal.

"Borta, why are you transporting so many things again? Didn't you just come back from the front line? Aren't those guys who believe in the cross already defeated by you? Are you going to go on another expedition?"

A bearded man in his forties came from afar. He was considered a citizen of the Arab Empire, but this guy was a secret agent of the Tang Dynasty. More than a year ago, people from the Tang Dynasty found him and finally made him change. He came up with his own ideas and became a secret agent of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, this is a normal thing. He had two sons, and he was supposed to be able to live a good life. However, the Arab Empire took away both of his sons. One son went to the far east and is now in the Tang Dynasty. In the military camp, another son went to the west and died in the war.

Because the son was controlled by the Tang Dynasty's army, the people of the Tang Dynasty wanted him to be an internal agent. He did not need to deliberately inquire about information, he only needed to report everything he saw.

This guy's two sons died on the battlefield, so he was loved by the surrounding soldiers. When he saw him coming, the soldier who beat him also put away his whip.

"Uncle Zaik, this time we are not going to the west to fight, we are going to the east to fight this time. In the far east, there is a powerful country called Datang. Have you forgotten? Your son was killed by them Yes, we were careless last time. This time we conquered hundreds of thousands of troops and we will definitely win."

Borta said very proudly that they had won the victory on the Western battlefield and beat the white people so hard that they could not hold their heads up. Now they have all run back. It is precisely because of this that they have more than 200,000 soldiers. Army.

In the minds of these imperial warriors, there is no country that they cannot defeat, so the Tang Dynasty is no problem. No matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty is, as long as they become our enemies, we must take revenge on them. The people of the Arab Empire represent the will of God and must never surrender to anyone. Even if they have defeated us, we will cut off their heads with a scimitar.

"My God, has the empire finally accumulated enough strength? If so, I must use my last savings to support you in your fight for the distant Tang Dynasty, where I lost a son. I no longer have any worries.”

Zaik said very excitedly that of course it was impossible for him to donate all his family property, but this was what the spies of the Tang Dynasty told him. Only in this way can more people in the Arab Empire army believe in him. Only in this way can more people in the Arab Empire army believe in him. Only then could he get more information.

Sure enough, when he said this, several nearby soldiers came over. They all respected Uncle Zaik very much. After this guy's two children died on the battlefield, what would Uncle Zaik do in peacetime? If they had children, they would take the initiative to help. Now that they heard that the imperial army was about to go on an expedition, they actually wanted to donate all their family property for military expenses. This feeling moved them so much.

"Uncle Zaik, we accept your wishes. Now that your two sons have died on the battlefield, you have to leave some pension money for yourself. If you donate all of it, your future will be better." There will be problems in life. Now the empire has plundered a lot of property in the west, which is enough for us to go to the Tang Empire. Just wait for us in the capital. When we come back from the Tang Empire, we will definitely bring you a lot of money. The spoils of war.”

A man who looked like a small officer came over, and the ordinary soldiers around him leaned back. Zaik was different from others. This man only had two sons, and they all died fighting for the great Caliphate.

This can be said to be a typical example in the neighborhood. If you donate all your property, it will not be good if you really starve to death.

Although the Arab Empire continued to win foreign wars, the lives of its people did not improve much. The main reason was that the place where they lived was too difficult. Almost most of the place was desert, and only a few oases allowed them to survive. Go down, but even in this small amount of oasis, the water source is pitiful.

The Arab Empire has been fighting abroad for many years and has acquired a large amount of land suitable for habitation. However, the citizens are willing to live on this land, so they can only transport out everything they have obtained abroad.

But the problem is that gold and silver can be transported, but can those water sources be transported?

Uncle Zaik chatted with these people for a while, then encouraged them, and then walked towards his home with a basket in his arms. He was thinking that he had to spread the news. The army had begun to gather. , according to the current speed, they will be able to gather in the northern part of the empire in three or two months at most.

Then he entered the jurisdiction of the Anton Governor's Mansion from there. It is said that the jurisdiction of the Anton Governor's Mansion was also occupied by the Tang army. Perhaps a war was about to break out there. When the people of the Tang Dynasty found him, they told him that if they wanted To save his son's life, he had to report the movements of the Arab Empire's army in time. If there was a delay, his son would die.

In fact, he doesn't know whether his son is alive or dead. After all, people from the Tang Dynasty just brought a letter. If someone is pretending to be someone, then he has no other way, but at this moment, he can only choose to believe those big people. Tang's spy hopes that his son is still alive... (End of chapter)
