On October 22, the 10-year-long Arab War finally ended with the death of the last Hashemite caliph Hussein at the hands of rioting soldiers.

The surviving Arab cavalry laid down their arms one after another and surrendered to the Great Min, and at this time, the officials of the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Fujian Army, who were counted, only knew that the 320,000 Arab troops who were blocking in front of the Fujian army when they came were only about 190,000 at this time, and many of them were not killed by the Min army in the war, but suffered a chronic death under disease and starvation, and many of the people who were alive were also like skeletons.

It is no wonder that when the last great storm did not work, the Arabs were so desperate that they even broke down to the point of killing each other.

Of course, the Min army also lost a lot, not to mention that the death squads that broke through every day would lose more than half of them every day, and in the first two days of the scuffle alone, the Min also lost 40,000 armor soldiers.

Fortunately, this bloody battle of more than 200,000 people finally came to an end here.

However, the war is over, and many of the remaining problems are still very thorny, as soon as he came into contact with the armed Arab army, the first thing Li Jie did was to send back the huge army under his command to Damascus in batches and batches, on the one hand, the logistics pressure of the million-strong army pressed Wu Meiniang in Ctesiphon wrote a letter to complain, which shows that she really survived to the extreme, on the other hand, the hatred between the Fujian army and the Arabs is too deep.

These days, almost every day the Arabs will execute the prisoners of the Fujian army, this is still in front of the present, in the past few decades, the Arabs have captured the capital of the Persians, and again and again invaded the Caucasus mountains to carry out massacres, forcibly conscripted Caucasian coolies to build various mosques and palaces, the well-trained sixteen guards are still good control points, and the Indian infantry is not much of a problem, but whether it is the Armenians or in Mesopotamia, the government soldiers and mercenaries recruited by Khorasan are a blood feud against the Arabs.

On the day that Abdul and the other eighteen troops surrendered, hundreds of Armenians went to the Arab military camp to fight, and finally the black capital was dispatched to arrest these Christian knights, and all kinds of friction continued for several days, and there were more than a dozen Armenian princes who looked like I am good for you to persuade Li Jie to slaughter all these Arabs in order to prevent future troubles.

Listening, Li Jie laughed and laughed, and said that he thought about it, but he slandered in his heart, if he wants to kill, he will kill all you Armenians first, at least the Arabs have not stabbed him in the back of Damin.

At the beginning of November, two-thirds of the huge army that had been requisitioned was finally dismissed, and the mercenaries from the mountains of the Caucasus took the bounty back to Damascus to change their hoes, and went home to work as a farmer with a small tune.

The more fierce these mountain people are, the more solid Li Jiejue will sleep in the Great Plains.

The Persian soldiers were similar, except for the elite sons who had military merits and intentions were supplemented with the 16 Guards and the Guanning Iron Cavalry, which suffered heavy losses, and the rest also spent more than half of their monthly salary in Damascus, and went home with all kinds of rare things to beat their wives.

The same Arab cavalry was dismissed, put down their swords and guns, took off their armor and mounted their camels, and these fierce sand leopards on the battlefield were transformed into honest men, shepherds, oasis farmers and treacherous merchants.

Damin gave each of these Arabs a salary, although it was not a small amount, but it was enough for these Arabs to survive until next spring, although this move added a huge amount of additional expenses, but the Fengge Luantai, which had always been picky, did not save at all.

The far-sighted prime ministers all knew that the docile Han people would rise up and fight desperately when they had no food and no way to live, not to mention the unruly Arabs, who had finally won the battle of the Yarmouk River, did not want to be ordered to supervise the army and go to the dry and barren Hejaz Desert to fight guerrilla warfare with the rebellious tribes for several years.

However, the result of this incident was that His Majesty the King of Min was painfully pulling the abacus around the mobile palace for several days, and he was still talking about Lao Tzu being beaten and paying for me.

More than a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and there are only about 100,000 left in the Yamouk River battlefield, which was originally crowded with millions of troops, including 30,000 Guanning iron cavalry, more than 10,000 forbidden troops, and Xue Rengui who changed his guard from behind.

In this battle, the seven guards brought by Li Jie were almost half disabled, and they urgently needed to go back to rest, anyway, the Arab men were almost dead, and the rest of the dismissal is estimated to be unwilling to pick up the sword again in a short time, not to mention that Li Jie's deep into the Arabian Peninsula this time is not to fight, but to accept the worship of the Arab chiefs, and it is enough for the army of more than 100,000 to show the majesty of the King of Fujian.

At the end of November, led by hundreds of Arab sheikhs who had surrendered, the mighty Min army was again advancing in the direction of Mecca.

The majestic Guanning Iron Cavalry Department of the Iron Cavalry Department as the vanguard, the shadow of Fan Yangli covered most of the warriors' faces, under the sun, the Mingguang armor forged with cold steel reflected the majestic light, the Mingguang armor equipped by the heavy cavalry of the Fujian Army was not a golden handicraft in the museum of later generations, it was much simpler, just according to the Mingguang armor system, two large movable breastplates were inlaid on the chest, and the rest of the place was still inlaid with iron pieces outside the leather armor.

The Roman legions were armed with large kite-shaped shields and spears or swords on either side of the army, enclosing the left and right Jinwu guards and the Praetorian Army. Many ethnic groups in West Asia were originally very curious about the Tang people, and they had never seen what the Tang people looked like, but when they saw the appearance of the march along the way, many local tribes were disappointed.

I used to hear that the Min people have three heads and six arms, their mouths are as big as a pot, and their noses are spitting fire, what! Just like the Romans who ruled here decades ago.

Li Jie's troops marched to Mecca around the Yarmouk River, marched south along the Sea of Galilee and the Jordan River, and passed through Jerusalem along the way.

The victory of the Battle of the Yarmouk River in the Great Min not only decided the fate of Fujian and the Arab Empire, but also affected the situation in the entire Eastern Mediterranean.

It's a pity that even though King David himself stared at the hot sun and knelt on the sand and waited for more than a long time, the messenger of King Min still waved his sleeves in a bullish manner.

"Your Majesty is busy, I don't see you!"

When the Battle of the Yarmouk River was in full swing, even the Armenians served in Li Jie's army, which was once the key cultivation of the Great Min and the nail left in West Asia, and Jerusalem did not even have a single soldier. The inferiority of the Jews was thus revealed, they were selfish, they could do everything for their freedom, but they spared the blood of their soldiers to help others, even their own suzerain.

Moreover, during the confrontation between Fujian and Arabia, these Jews also had snakes and rats at both ends, occupying Suez's trade on the one hand, and providing Hussein with rice and grain on the other.

Now is not the time for the Great Min to need the Kingdom of Jerusalem, no more of him, no less of him, if Li Jie is willing, slightly interesting, hordes of Arabs will be happy to take back this holy city, no wonder the Jews are nervous.

However, even if he vomited blood angrily, David still had to find ways to continue to hug Li Jie's thick legs, after the Fujian army passed through Jerusalem, from Wang Fangyi, the right minister of Fengge Wenchang, to the left, center, and right generals of Jin Wuwei below, each waist bag was bulging a little, and even Xue Rengui added a room of Jewish concubines, with Li Jie's acquiescence, the magnates of the Great Min scraped the ground and scraped the princes and nobles of the Kingdom of Israel were about to cry.

Out of Jerusalem, the Min army went straight to Suez, where Li Jie met with Liu Renliang, the governor of the naval division, with a heavy face, and did not know what to talk about, before the army turned east.

At the beginning of January of the fifth year of the Great Min Dynasty, the Fujian army arrived at the final destination of this time, Mecca, after more than a month of trekking!

Mecca is located in the valley of the Sierra Mountains in the western part of the Arabian Peninsula, the nearby peaks and valleys are undulating, surrounded by mountains, standing at the mouth of the valley, the majestic and simple city walls of the ancient city of Mecca in the valley stand majestically there, the tall and magnificent Kaaba al-Haram is faintly visible, the majestic self-sacrifice who is the momentum of the face, worthy of the world's three major religions to start the place, this place is enough to support enough king's hegemony, Li Jie is also relaxed and happy.

Accompanied Li Jie all the way, in front of the city of Mecca, Gamar, Abdul and other leaders advanced to the city, and this time they were leading the imams in the Haram Masque and others to the gate of the city.

Looking at a group of Arab leaders wearing white turbans and white robes waiting for him in a row, ****** vaguely, Li Jie actually had a feeling of visiting Saudi Arabia a long time, although the amusement quickly suppressed this idea, but under the guidance of the forbidden army, Li Jie still had a fluttering feeling.

It's not easy to finally conquer here!

However, just when the horse team of the king of Min came to the gate of Mecca with the arrogance and reserve unique to the conqueror, and slowly waved the banner, a Fujian army wearing a black cloak suddenly rushed up from behind with a horse, and after checking the waist card, he said a few words close to Li Jie's ear.

After hearing this, Li Jie's originally smug face quickly became gloomy............
