Chapter 1141: A God-Sent Opportunity
Li Ding has been marching and fighting since the Western film, while learning about the religion, culture, history, and customs of the West. The three major religions of Islam, Judaism and Christianity have excluded each other, and the millennia of war has left too many blood, tears and hatred on all sides.
But there's one interesting thing about the fact that these three religions hate each other and have a lot to do with one place: Jerusalem.
Jerusalem has the first holiest site of Judaism, the Wailing Wall.
The Wailing Wall, also known as the Western Wall, is a section of the Second Temple parapet in ancient Judea and the only remaining remains of the Second Temple Parapet, about 50 meters long and 18 meters high, made of large stones. Judaism considers the wall to be the first holiest site.
In 70 AD, during the reign of the Roman Emperor Herod, he tried his best to suppress the Jewish uprising, hundreds of thousands of Jews were killed, most of the Jews were expelled from Palestine, and Jerusalem and the Temple were almost razed to the ground.
It wasn't until the Byzantine Empire that Jews were given a chance to return to their homeland on the annual Sabbath, and countless followers of Judaism came here to weep over the wall, hence the name "Wailing Wall".
At the same time, Jerusalem is also home to the holy site of Islam: the Sahlai Mosque, also known as the Dome of the Rock.
The Sahlai Mosque is located within the holy site of Islam in the eastern part of Jerusalem. Muslims believe that the rock in the middle of the Dome of the Rock is the place where Muhammad, the founder of Islamic education, traveled to heaven with the angel Gabriel to meet Allah.
For this reason, Muslims call it the Noble Temple.
And just between the two holy sites of the Wailing Wall and the Dome of the Rock, there is a third holy place, a winding path, and a church of the Holy Sepulchre at the end of the path.
The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, also known as the "Church of the Resurrection", is the site of Jesus' tomb and one of the holiest places in Christianity.
Legend has it that Jesus was betrayed by traitors and executed by the authorities before carrying a cross through the streets of the road before being carried to the hillside where the Church of the Holy Sepulchre is located. Here he was put to death. This path is called the Path of Sorrow by Christians, and the Church of the Resurrection is called the Holy Church.
The Wailing Wall, the Dome of the Rock, and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre coexist in one city, and have become the place where countless believers of the three religions have the best of their heart.
The three are entangled. The grudge is incomprehensible, no matter which side occupies the city, the other two sides are trying in every possible way to recapture it, and it is because of the Crusades and other scenes of life-and-death killing.
As the commander of the Western Expedition, Li Ding had an in-depth understanding of these. War depends not only on force, but also on wisdom, and if we do not understand these things clearly and know ourselves and the enemy, we will not be able to talk about any wisdom vision.
Just like now, Arthurius said that Allah would not forgive them for the massacre, and Li Ding said that they would be rewarded by God. In this way, it feels like this is a matter between God and God.
However, Li Ding was too lazy to talk to Arthurus, and he said to Yu Xingguo, who was the capital: "It's all about it." It's up to you. ”
Yu Xingguo nodded, those Kazakh soldiers had almost cleaned up the battlefield.
More than 50,000 war horses were gathered, and grain, grass and weapons were piled up.
There is no doubt that the Qin army needs some servant troops to fight and some pawns to be cannon fodder.
Nearly 30,000 Kazakh captives were held in the steppe and squatted in a ball, looking like a large field of sheep.
This time, Yu Xingguo didn't bother to do any ideological mobilization work, and directly gave these Kazakh prisoners two choices: go home. Or follow Qin Jun to eat and drink spicy food.
Go home?
Just let us go home?
Is there such a good thing?
After seeing the bloody methods of the Qin army last night, most Kazakh soldiers did not believe that such a good thing happened.
As for following Qin Jun to eat and drink spicy food, the subtext is that the heavy work and tired work are given to you, and you will go first. This is more people who believe it.
The captives who squatted on the ground under the black pressure exchanged heads and whispered, and after a battle between heaven and earth, in the end, 20,000 people voluntarily chose to follow the Qin army to "eat and drink spicy".
Nearly 10,000 people chose to go home.
For those who choose to go home, Yu Xingguo is too lazy to take a look. Keep squatting, go home, wait.
He really took the 20,000 people who were willing to follow the Qin army to eat and drink spicy food.
It's true, a large amount of grain and grass materials have just been seized, Yu Xingguo is not stingy, the food tube is enough, the meat tube is full, and the 20,000 Kazakh soldiers are holding rice bowls, as if they are dreaming, just now they are lambs to be slaughtered, and now they are getting such preferential treatment, who will believe it.
Some people began to regret it, they knew that Qin Jun was so trustworthy and chose to go home, but the prisoners here with a bowl of rice are regretting the hasty choice they made.
Suddenly there was a rain of arrows in the sky, like flying locusts in the sky, whizzing down, sending the nearly 10,000 crouching captives home.
The whizzing arrow rain fell, and the screams suddenly sounded to curb the clouds, many people here saw the tragic scene, even the bowl was unstable, and some even had weak feet and fell to the ground, and more were full of happiness, fortunately, they chose to "eat lunch and drink spicy", fortunately!
Li Ding first sent a few thousand men and horses to take the city of Atyrau, and the large army rested for two days at the foot of Mount Mugojar in Romtau before setting off again.
The 6,000 men and horses of Caphis, who had been sent by Arthurius to capture the Middle Tent, dared to continue to go to the Middle Tent after hearing the news that Arthurus's 80,000 army had been completely annihilated, and fled back to the Ottoman Empire in fright.
Li Ding not only successfully bowed to the whole division, but also won a new big victory, and there were 20,000 more servants, which can really be said to be strong and high-spirited. He ordered Xiao Ziyu to be killed quickly.
Xiao Ziyu is the smallest and weakest regional separatist regime in the Kazakh Khanate, and the Kazakh people are also known as "Western Kazakhstan".
It is mainly composed of: Bayul (including Adayi, Archin, Gapas, Arache, Cherkesh, etc.), Alimuul (including Karashal, Karakske, Kait, Tuthara, Cheket, etc.), Zhedeul (including Tabni, Tama, Kerdre, Jakalbai, Kreyit, Treu) and other tribes.
Wherever Li Ding's army passed, no matter what tribe you were, they all rushed to Atyrau City, where the tent of Xiaoziyu Khan was located, and then the wine and beauty first rewarded the soldiers.
Everyone traveled all the way west, thousands of miles away from home, and without a little reward, it was impossible to maintain morale.
In these days, there is no human rights to say, the defeated are at the mercy of others, and it is already a blessing for heaven not to die.
General Li Ding convened a military meeting on the royal tent with Hulaiqin, which was attended by officers above the rank of general, including Chebai, Yu Xingguo, Arslen, and Yangpu, as well as a number of staff officers.
There is only one topic, where to hit next?
Staff officer Li Cunzhong pointed to the map and said: "Generals, the Ural River on the west side of Atyrau City is the Great Qin Boundary River demarcated by the Great Qin Emperor, in other words, in terms of territorial expansion, we have fulfilled Your Majesty's grand wishes." In the battle of Mugojar Mountain, our army was famous"
Li Ding suddenly made a gesture and interrupted Li Cunzhong's words: "What do you want to say?" If it's still, that's it. ”
Li Cunzhong looked embarrassed, and said: "General, my subordinates don't mean that, please see, after the Caspian Sea, it is sandwiched between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, and the Volga River valley in the north of the Caucasus is currently controlled by Tsarist Russia, and the southern Caucasus is controlled by the Ottomans.
According to the information we have obtained, the Ottomans have concentrated their troops in the Caucasus over the years, firstly to defend the northeastern gateway, and secondly, to seize the Volga valley from Tsarist Russia, and still to subjugate the entire Tsarist Russia.
Arthurus's army of 50,000 was almost completely annihilated, which was eighty percent of the Ottoman forces deployed in the Caucasus. At present, in the Caucasus, the total strength of the Ottoman Empire is only about 15,000, and even if the 6,000 men who fled back from Kephaus are only 20,000.
Suffering such a crushing defeat, the new ruling Grand Vizier Kopluru in the Ottoman country. Muhammad. The prestige of the Pasha party will inevitably be dealt a huge blow, and it is likely to trigger a new round of political shock, and in this case, it is the best time for us to attack the Greater Caucasus."
This is possible, and if there is really a new round of turmoil in the Ottoman domestic political situation, it will undoubtedly be a godsend for Li Ding.
