Chapter 1204. Hussein's death
Not only Hussein, but also the dozens of other military chiefs and elders were also shocked, and they all looked back in disbelief.
Even when disaster comes, Hussein has always been the caliph of all, the protector of all, the leader, he has been loved by the people for a long time, so that it is unbelievable that these generals can dare to put weapons on him, and some of his own people will fight against him.
The wind and sand blew lowly, and in the wind, the hand holding the blood-dripping scimitar trembled violently, but Gamal's eyes were as red as rabbits, and he howled madly and tremblingly in the face of Hussein's clear and unbelievable gaze.
"You, you are the devil, the greatest liar! You, you led everyone to a dead end! ”
"Gamel, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Abdul immediately roared angrily, but Gamal roared back even more angrily.
"Am I not right? Ten years ago, God revealed the truth! He allowed King Min to cross the sea that was difficult to cross! This miracle can only be compared to when God blessed the Jews to escape from Egypt and split the sea, and then I tried, and since the king of Min crossed the brackish sea, the sea has never drowned anyone! Isn't this a miracle? ”
Full of madness, Gamal shouted to all the soldiers, generals, and elders present: "Actually, God has already made it known! A magical weapon that sprays thunder! The statue of the god who blessed the head of King Min on the battlefield back then! The invincible Damin Legion! This is Judgment Day! The Lord's judgment on all of us! ”
Pointing at Hussein, Gamal scolded hoarsely and madly: "It's you! It was you who led everyone to a dead end, and you took all the men of Mecca to fight to the death here, you are the devil incarnate! You want the complete destruction of my Arabians! Devil!!! ”
Listening to Gamal's accusations, he was even more shocked than he had just received it, Hussein was like a lightning strike, looking around at the subordinates who usually obeyed his words and obeyed, and followed by him, every general, tribal elder, and chieftain hesitated to avoid his gaze, and even Abdul, the closest partner who had grown up together, hesitated to bow his head.
A deep sadness rose from Hussein's heart, for the sake of Arabia, almost all of his eleven members of his family died in the turmoil, just two days ago, he watched his last daughter beheaded by the Min army in front of hundreds of thousands of people, by now, he has really become a loner!
"Hmph, devil! Devil! ”
Nervously smiling, ignoring the bleeding wound on his back and staining his white clothes, Hussein staggered and jumped off his camel and walked straight in the opposite direction of the Min army.
"He's the devil! Don't let him go! ”
Behind him, Gamal's frantic cry sounded again, and a fierce spirit of Gamal's pro-army, who was close, subconsciously slashed over, and in the clicking sound, another stream of blood rolled down Hussein's sleeve.
Only then did the soldier who realized what he had done knelt on the ground timidly, and said in a panic: "That, the little one doesn't know, no, the little one offended the caliph, damn it......"
Hussein, however, did not say a word, not even look at him, but only swayed, still under the stunned gaze of the chieftains, and walked heavily towards the frenzied Arab army.
"He's the devil! He is the one who leads us to destruction! In the midst of the Arab soldiers who were looking at each other, suddenly another man jumped out with a roar and slashed Hussein in the back.
With a stumbling moment, Hussein continued to walk forward.
The knife was stained with blood, as if a piece of meat had been thrown down from a hungry wolf, and more and more hearts were filled with panic, and the anxious and hateful Arab soldiers frantically rushed over, venting all the panic of defeat and death, and pieces of scimitars were raised beside Hussein, bundles of spears pierced him, and the blood of the Prophet's descendants rained out.
However, Hussein still walked forward silently as if he had slashed not himself, never dodging or stopping.
But people are not gods after all, a meandering bloodstain dragged for dozens of meters, and under the siege of the crazy soldiers who were more and more stunned and looked at the blood on the blade in their hands in disbelief, Hussein finally fell heavily to the ground, his eyes were blurred by the bright sun, and an inexplicable emptiness appeared in Hussein's consciousness.
O Lord! What is the meaning of my life?
"Father!"
A loud and pleasant voice suddenly came to mind, and in Hussein's blurred vision, the veiled beautiful girl beckoned to him with a mischievous smile, and then dragged a silver bell-like laugh all the way like a distance.
On his cheeks, a heartfelt smile finally appeared, and at the last moment, Hussein finally found some meaning for himself, maybe his death could reduce the killing!
"Drow, wait for me!"
With that heartfelt smile, Hussein also stretched out his hand with difficulty......
"Caliph!"
Without waiting to hold Hussein's outstretched hand, the arm that had exhausted the last trace of life finally hung down, and Abdul, who was stunned for a moment, could no longer suppress it, threw himself on Hussein's chest and wailed, and then, more than a dozen generals knelt in the blood-stained sand consciously, and the cries became one.
Jingle, the scimitars in the hands of the surrounding soldiers, and the blood-stained spears fell to the ground one after another, everyone's faces were full of regret and confusion, and the last person to hold the knife was Gamal, but he also looked ahead blankly.
"You, true to me the Judas of Arabia!"
He poked the ground with his cane in disgust, and the old Elder Gabr said to him bitterly.
Judas, the thirteenth disciple who betrayed Jesus, conspired with the priests of the Jewish temple to frame Jesus and crucify him, and it was because of Judas's betrayal that the Jews became an excluded people in the world for thousands of years, until the rise of the technological age diluted religious hatred, but there were still people in Li Jie's time who hated Jews.
Finally, under Jabr's accusation, Gamal also knelt on the ground with a weak thud.
But at this moment, the Arab cavalry in the distance ran back in panic and shouted in horror: "The ironclad cavalry of the Fujian people has already put on an attack posture against our army, and their heavenly thunder is also aimed at our army, what should I do?"
What to do? In the past, Hussein's loud voice had already sounded at this time, and the chiefs of the various ministries could fight a decisive battle according to the order, but now, holding Hussein's body that had begun to be cold, Abdul and the other leaders looked at each other helplessly for a long time, and finally Elder Jabr waved his hand helplessly.
"Send an envoy to surrender to the King of Min!"
…………
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The Arabs surrendered! ”
The extremely excited voice came out of the mouth of the Red Feather Knight, spread throughout the army, and also reached Li Jie's ears, but he was sweating profusely and walked out of the mobile palace with a shovel on his shoulder, and his hand was on the lap of a dead elephant, but Li Jie shouted angrily: "What are you kidding!"
A few quarters of an hour later, finally stepped up to clean it up, and there was still a place of sand in the hall of King Min, wiped off the sweat, put on the most solemn dragon robe, crowned with a crown, and sat on the dragon chair with a serious expression, accompanied by Li Rang, Yang Xinyi, Anna, etc., in the kneeling of dozens of major Arab elders and imam chiefs who came to meet and surrender, Li Jie was still a little in a trance and incredulous.
The Arabs, who fought with him indomitably for more than ten years, really surrendered?
You must know that the current Min army is actually an empty shell, although relying on iron-blooded military discipline, low tents to prevent wind, and then using bamboo poles on the top of the tent to ensure the breath of the soldiers after being buried in the sand, and the vast majority of the soldiers survived, and the losses of the Min are still amazing.
Livestock casualties have not yet been counted, look at the more than 30 elephants that died around Li Jie's mobile palace, this loss can still be seen, until now the dinner of the Fujian army is still buried in the sand, but it is expected that the Arabs will attack again and the Min has to put out most of the military strength to make a decisive appearance, in fact, scare away the Arabs, Li Jie is satisfied.
In this case, the Arabs came to surrender, which was as surprising and delightful as if they had picked up a piece of dog's head gold halfway down.
Listening to this group of unkempt Arab chiefs and generals with missing arms and legs, they knelt respectfully on the ground and praised the King of Great Min in unskilled Tang language, long live, long live, long live. Li Jie still had a suspicious gaze and glanced down.
"What about your caliph Hussein? Why didn't he come and surrender to the widow himself? ”
As soon as Abdullah, an official of the Ministry of Rites, translated, a group of chiefs who listened to it had grief on their faces.
…………
Following a group of elders and the Praetorian Guards from below to the small sand dune, looking at the blood stains that were connected in a line, and Hussein's peaceful smile with his back facing the sky, as if he was asleep, Li Jie couldn't help but be shocked and silent.
It seems that it is not without reason that Arabia was able to rise rapidly from a corner and finally develop into the master of the soul of one-sixth of the population of the envoys, and that these outstanding men fought for it at the cost of their lives.
Under the anxious gaze of the Arab sergeants who were blocked by the chiefs, and the forbidden army had blocked the outside, and had been disarmed, and anxiously surrounded by the watchers, Li Jie bowed heavily to Hussein.
Shock! Everyone was dumbfounded, although hostile, those Arab chiefs had to admit that Li Jie was the most noble and powerful person in the world in their minds, and even some were not human, they were simply a god.
However, this god also paid homage to their revered caliph when they were at their lowest.
"Tell them that their caliph is good, that the widow admires him, and that he will take up the burden from his hand, and that the widow will be their caliph in the future!"
Patting Abdullah on the shoulder, who was also a little stunned, Li Jie said solemnly.
Listening to Abdullah's loud translation, the surrounding Arab sheikhs burst into tears, there is nothing more touching than being respected by the enemy, Li Jie's declaration made the surrounding Arabs talk a lot, and finally, slowly gathered together, I don't know who shouted first, anyway, in the end, the shouts of hundreds of thousands of Arab troops gathered into one sentence, and the sand dunes beside him were shocking, a deafening sentence.
"Long live the King of Min!!"
