864 The Strongest Confrontation (I)

After determining that he was going to face to face with the Arabs, Chai Shao began to convene the generals to formulate tactical strategies, how to deal with the lifeless attack of these fierce Arabs, no matter how brave the Datang army is, it is estimated that it will not be able to deal a heavy blow to their spirit, these guys who are not afraid of death don't know why they are so tenacious, as the so-called hateful are afraid of the horizontal, the horizontal are afraid of the dead, although the Tang Dynasty is very strong, but also afraid of the dead.

The Arabs are those who don't want to die, they fight really hard, an infantry dares to single-handedly take on a cavalry, although the cavalry's tactics are stupid, but they are also cavalry, or heavy cavalry, the armor is thicker than most of the cavalry in the Tang Dynasty, and those infantry are not afraid, let alone others.

Chai Shao and the young generals don't know why the Arabs are so fearless of death, if Suning is there, they can also give them some advice, such as the reason why the Arabs are so fanatical and fearless of death is because of religion, and the reason why the original Yellow Turban Army fought so fiercely in the early days is also because of religion, people are easy to be agitated, sometimes regardless of class or status, they are easy to be agitated, once they are agitated, fear or anything will be left behind.

People are afraid of death, but people are not afraid of death, religion is a way that can make people not afraid of death, but no matter what way, there are only two paths to the road, and only these two roads can make people not afraid of death, one is love, the other is faith, after all, it is necessary to have a little thought, so they will not be afraid of death, fill their hearts. There's no room for fear.

Arabs are people armed with faith, they meet all the elements of fanatics, such as being born poor, such as not seeing hope in life, such as worshipping a certain hero, and then they learn about the existence of religion, they know the existence of gods, they have no culture, they have no discernment, and they do not know how to judge. As long as they are dissatisfied with reality. There is the possibility of agitation, and the poorer and more divided the place, the easier it is to agitate, and the fanatical degree of agitation is also the highest.

The Arabs of this land were bitter, and they gained bitterness before the rise. So there was the basis for the birth and spread of Islam. In the same way ancient Europe there would have been the spread of Christianity. In ancient India, there would be a spread of Buddhism to China, for some special reason. Religion was not accepted by the imperial family, and the development of religion to a certain extent would always lead to a struggle between secular power and theocracy, Europe was conquered by theocracy, the Middle East and West Asia were directly theocratic and theocracy, and China was conquered by secular power.

Therefore, there is a religion in China, and there is a spread of religion, but it will never be able to occupy the mainstream.

This is the terrible thing about those who are fanatical about a certain religion, and even about the theocratic countries, where everyone has a faith, and the power struggle at the top does not affect the faith of the ordinary people at the bottom, who sincerely believe in a certain god and deeply hope that life can bring them happiness and hope, and for these reasons, fanatical warriors are born.

For Datang's proud fighting habits full of rationality and self-confidence, Datang's combat effectiveness is piled up with battles, Datang's fighting spirit is inspired by countless victories, Datang's fighting spirit is shaped by strict military discipline and military law, this is an army that is gradually moving closer to the spirit of the national army, and it is an army composed of soldiers who are gradually moving closer to professional soldiers, and religion has no influence on them.

They may pray for the gods and Buddhas before the battle, but the most important thing is to care for their families, hoping that the deceased family members or relatives will bless them in heaven, and no family members or relatives will ask for the blessings of the gods and Buddhas.

Maybe it wasn't before, but they had to join the army just to cope with the conscription regulations, but over the years, everyone knows that war can bring tangible benefits to the Tang people, fighting a war is not only for the country, but also for themselves, fighting for themselves, that is, fighting for the people they love, hoping that they and their loved ones can live a better life, parents, wives, children, that is their greatest belief, that is, love and responsibility.

The confrontation between an army with love and responsibility as the spiritual filler and an army with faith and hope as the spiritual filler is very interesting, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is currently the two most spiritually powerful armies in the world, whether an army is spiritually strong or not can determine its combat record and combat effectiveness in a great way, the Arabs have faith, so they defeated the empty Persians, the Tang people have love, and faith cannot destroy the love of the Tang Dynasty.

No matter how you look at it, it's a close confrontation, and it's also a very fierce confrontation.

So Chai Shao is very concerned, and Khalid is also very concerned.

The news that a very strange army had arrived at Ctesiphon and had received a personal reception from the Emperor of Persia brought out from Ctesiphon's internal eyeliner made Khalid feel a little puzzled and puzzled, what army could allow the Emperor of Persia to personally greet and receive him? What kind of Persian general is that? The next information made him a little dumbfounded, an army of black-haired, black-eyed and yellow-skinned soldiers, we couldn't understand what they said, and we couldn't understand what they wrote.

The inside news is that this is an army from a powerful country in the East, the number is about 50,000 people, it is said that the cronies around the Persian emperor personally ran to that big country to invite reinforcements, and I don't know what price Persia paid for it, but it is certainly not small, and the army of 50,000 people was dispatched, obviously not for fun, but very concerned and very important, and the Persian emperor and the emperor of that big country may have formed an alliance.

Black eyes, black hair, yellow skin, I seem to have heard of this somewhere...... That's right! Before his death, the great prophet once said that learning should be sought even if it is far away in China, China, Chinese, seems to be black-eyed, black-haired, yellow-skinned, it is said that they have a long history, and also have a very brilliant civilization, and the Romans seem to have had a good relationship with them, although it was hundreds of years ago......

This is the country that the Prophet longed for. Why did you get mixed up with those greedy and stupid Persians? And help them so strongly? Why is that? The prophet could not be wrong, then the only explanation is that the Chinese were bewitched by the Persians, and the Persians must have bought the Chinese emperor with a lot of money and treasures, so they will help the Persians! Right! That's it!

Almost instantly, Khalid made a decision that if the Chinese would help the Persians to attack their army, then he would definitely teach the Chinese a hard lesson, make them wake up, and let them know who their real allies were. Who are the real friends. The Persians are deceiving them, they are really seducing them with vulgar things like money, and Chinese with great knowledge and great wisdom should not be so easily deceived, unless the emperor of China is a greedy person!

Kindness. And not just to teach the Chinese army a lesson. It is necessary to teach the emperor of China a lesson. It really hurts to be bought by the Persians so easily, and to help the Persians attack the followers of the prophet who longed for them so much!

Khalid felt a sense of betrayal. This feeling annoyed him, and he vowed that as long as the Chinese with black eyes, black hair and yellow skin appeared on the battlefield, he would definitely teach them a hard lesson, wake them up, and let them know what should be done and what should not be done!

Of course, we can't be too ruthless, we have to deal with each other, we have to go to them to seek true learning, what the prophet said, there must be no mistake, we must follow what the prophet said, go to China to seek learning, then we can get happiness! Prophet, though your body has left us, but your soul is still with us, and you will be with us until we find the way to happiness and the ideals of our hearts......

Khalid is a devout believer in Islam, a devout follower of Muhammad, he firmly believes in the qiē that the prophet in his heart said, he firmly believes that the qiē that his prophet did is correct and reasonable, and he wants to teach the Chinese fiercely for the regret of the prophet, those who are carried away by money!

Although I don't know how Chinese's combat effectiveness is, but I actually mixed with the Persians, thinking about it, the combat effectiveness will not be much stronger, no matter how strong it is, it is not as strong as the Romans, no matter how strong the Romans are, they are not our opponents, so it is not difficult to deal with Chinese, but there are still many things I want to know, for example, whether Chinese knows the existence of the prophet, whether Chinese knows what the prophet said about the learning, how many people in China still have this kind of learning, and so on......

Of course, he also had to question the Chinese emperor, why did he oppose them, originally, they should be friends, after opening the road to China, the believers should go there to follow the steps of the prophet, but the Chinese do this, it is simply too sad!

Khalid was furious.

Of course, Chai Shao didn't know that he and the Tang army had inexplicably become the people who betrayed them in the eyes of Khalid, and even if he knew, he would only feel inexplicable, what Islam, what "Koran", I have never heard of it, but I have heard of "Diamond Sutra" and "Tao Te Ching", does it have anything to do with this? Who is the Prophet? I don't know, how does he know that learning is in China? I don't even know!

Chai Shao is very innocent, he is lying down, but this is also helpless, reasoning with a fanatical believer is the same as suicide, don't expect to be able to make him think about normal things with normal thinking, this is not realistic, to reason with him, you have to understand his thinking, and then stand on the same level with him to communicate, but basically no one has such patience, so it is generally solved with one shot.

Chai Shao didn't have a gun, but he had artillery, so he decided to solve it with one shot, which is the king.

It is almost impossible to deal with those Arabs and destroy their faith, Chai Shao from a military point of view, with new weapons to hit those people, even if they are not afraid of death, they will have a fear of artillery, the deafening noise and the very terrible vibration and the huge power of artillery, once this fear is generated, it is not so easy to eliminate, no matter how it is, it is still a person, no matter how fierce it is not afraid of death, it is also a person, it is all a person.

As long as you are human, there are weaknesses, and there are times of fear, don't you? He had thirty artillery pieces, which were the most powerful weapons, and when the time came, he bombarded them fiercely, and then the incendiary canisters and trebuchets were dispatched, and then the crossbows and bows were fired, and the arrows rained down incessantly, and they were collected fiercely, and finally the cavalry charged in a conical formation, and with a completely different shock tactic from the Persians, they were completely disrupted, and they never stopped running, and finally the infantry marched steadily in formation, crushing them completely.

And this kind of attack will not stop so simply, the impact of the powerful cavalry will not stop, and it will not wear such heavy armor like the Persians to guide the lack of the body, so that the horses can not run fast and hold on for a long time, on the battlefield, speed is the embodiment of the life and lethality of the cavalry!
