Chapter 110: Don’t leave the root of disaster to your descendants!

Satuk led all the tribes of the hatred and fled west to Julan City. Hushagar had also arrived and met Satuk and Shuyibar. Satuk felt ashamed. When he saw Hushagar, he cursed angrily: "Why did you let Guo Luo attack like this easily!"

Hushagar was upset, but he didn't dare to refute his words.

At this time, the Tang army advanced in two groups - basically the route of Satuk's attack on the Tang army in Anxi - the northern route was Guo Zhang's cavalry and shooting soldiers, who walked on the Saiye Desert and kept biting behind him without relaxing. However, although the Saiye Desert is not as big as the Sea of ​​Death, it also forced Guo Zhang to retreat halfway; the southern route was Wenyanhai, which was walking on the mountain road and headed to the city of Melki, but did not go forward to attack.

However, Satuk was not relieved. Melki was a mountain city that could be guarded. The thing Satuk immediately started to do after conquering Talas was to strengthen Melki's city defense. As for the Shale Desert, it was not a place where you could march smoothly. The more troops the more trouble it would be to cross the desert.

If the enemy is only in the east, Satuk still has great confidence to defend it. As long as he defends Melki while defends Melki while defends Julan City, he may defend this area.

However, the current situation is that there is still a break between Talas and Julan City! That is the mountain pass where the city of Detective Tang is located!

When Ningyuan was still in the era of rare fiction, there was no commercial exchange between Talas and the strange fiction, and this large area of ​​mountain land was in the wilderness. However, now, this wilderness has taken a path in a few years, forming a channel that is difficult to walk on the land of Ningyuan’s homeland. What’s more troublesome is that the two gaps in the north and south of the passage have fallen into the hands of the Tang army!

After capturing the Demon City of Tang, Anwu did not continue to attack Talas or Julan City, but instead continued to increase military camps at this mountain pass, staring at Talas and Julan City.

He does not move, but it does not mean that he cannot move! This is a long light inserted on Satuk's back. It will give Satuk a fatal blow anytime and anywhere when the war is really started! With the existence of Anwu, the chess piece, Satuk could not concentrate on preventing the pressure from the east, and to solve Anwu - do the Uighurs now have the courage to take the initiative to attack the Tang army?

Spring is coming soon, and summer has not yet arrived - this inland area, spring comes relatively late, and now is the best weather. In this season, even Talas grows wildly everywhere. If there is no war, this season can raise cattle and sheep, but at this time Satuk's mood fell to the bottom of history. He looked at the tens of thousands of tribes who followed him from Balashaguen, and they were all covered in dust. In the past few years, he had ups and downs, but his future was completely impossible.

At this moment, Sulai sent someone to send a letter. Satuk opened it and saw his military advisor in the letter to warn him to be careful of Guo Luo's surprise attack.

"Oh!" Satuk sighed. Sulai's judgment was very accurate, but unfortunately something had happened.

The second half of the letter changed his tone and mentioned, "If the worst thing has happened, then please join the clan to the west as soon as possible!"

"Growing the clan to the west?"

Satuk's head was shining like lightning!

Sulai achieved more than expected results in Bukhara, and he knew this.

Nowadays, the defense line in the Talas region is incomplete, and it is unlikely to resist the Tang army in this area. However, what if Talas is used as the border town and directly enter the Hezhong area?

This seems to be a solution too - no, it may be Satuk's last chance.

This time you go, you will have to stay away from your homeland, and this time you may never be able to return to the east.

But this trip may also create a brand new era!

"Khan, the strategy of the veteran General Sulai can be considered!" said Shu Yibar.

"Khan, my subordinates also think it's feasible!"

With the existence of Anwu, Julan City will not be able to live forever.

"Okay, get ready to act!"

When he made this decision, three information related to the Tang army came from the east.

Seeing the first information, Satuk's face turned black: Zhang Mai changed the Saitou River to Balashaguon, and took the daughter of Arslan to the side room in the Saitou River, and received blessings from the tribes of the two rivers.

Seeing the second information, Satuk's heart sank again: In this best weather, Zhang Mai asked all the troops who had been in charge to rest and recuperate, and the troops from Beiting and Ningyuan were rectified on the spot. The army had no intention of returning east, but seemed to continue moving westward!

Seeing the third information again, Satuk was stunned at first, then ecstasy!

Since the victory in Beiting, Satuk's face has been gloomy. Only at this time did he smile and laugh: "God helps me, God helps me!"

"Khan, what's wrong?" asked the generals.

Satuk curled his smile and did not speak, which surprised everyone. The next day, Satuk summoned the generals again, especially the head of the Tianfang Sect who accompanied the army, and said in pain: "Xiao Wang just received an information... Zhang Maihe... He is banning the sect in the Thunder Leaf!"

The Tianfang scholars were shocked and said, "What!"

"He is under the banner of religious freedom," Satuk said: "This is his conspiracy. On the surface, he said he would choose his faith with others, but according to the news that the tens of thousands of religious people who were baptized last year were forced to abandon the religion! Zhang Mai asked them to break the precepts and eat pork. Now he is east of Erki, and Tianfang is no longer the state religion!"

The leaders of the Tianfang Sect seemed to be stimulated. Some jumped up, some roared, some shouted wildly, and some were about to rush over, and seemed to be going to fight in the east!

However, everyone knows that if you want to advance east at this moment, you will undoubtedly be a death sentence!

"This man is a demon from hell!" Satuk said: "From the day he appeared, he had been deliberately trying to attack our Tianfang Divine Sect! He invaded Shule, and the result was that Shule, the Tianfang Kingdom, became the entrenchment of Kafir, and he turned the naturalized Ejihan into a pagan country. Now, it was Balashaguon's turn. I think everyone should know that next, it should be Talas! Even the river, Khurasan, and even Baghdad! I think the greatest ambition of this demon is to subvert the entire Tianfang!"

The church members shouted, "We cannot let him do this, we cannot let him do this!"

"But now, we have nothing to do!" Satuk said in a heartache.

"Don't worry about the great khan!" A lecturer stood up and said, "Although this demon won many battles, it was on the hometown of the Tang Dynasty. When he arrived here, he would not be able to continue to show off! Talas is their biggest nightmare! As long as our Tianfang world united to fight against the demon Zhang Mai, we will definitely be able to reproduce the glory of the Battle of Talas!"

"That's right, that's right!" Several fanatical believers shouted together: "Let the Tang people fall in Talas again! This land will always be the Tang people's nightmare!"

Zhang Mai actually did not "destroy" the Tianfang Cult. What he did was to continue his long-standing religious policy: put religion under the regime, restrict all religious missionary activities, guide them to help the poor, provide medical treatment and medicine, open charity villages, raise orphans, etc., so that it becomes a benign supplement to society in areas beyond the reach of the government, and give all major religions politically equal status.

However, in the eyes of fanatical believers of the Tianfang Sect, turning a place that was originally a "land of heaven" into a place where "all religions coexist" is itself a regression!

The separation of religion and religion, education is in harmony with politics, or the unity of politics and religion, and education is superior to politics - this is one of the essential differences between Chinese culture and Tianfang culture!

What's more, because something special happened to the Uighurs in the west of the Lingxi in the past year: Satuk forced himself to cleanse all the residents of the Mesopotamian Basin, thus turning all Uighurs in the west of the Lingxi into Tianfang people.

Religion has a very terrible continuity. Although it was forced to be baptized at the beginning, after one or two generations, when descendants become accustomed to it, they will become devout religious people, and then this area will become a deeply rooted "nation of heaven".

So after Zhang Mai arrived at the Saiye, he ordered that all the tribes and people who were forced to cleanse were able to restore their religious beliefs. He also gave wine and meat through his wedding banquet - wine is wine and meat is fragrant pork, and asked all those who were forced to cleanse to taste it, as a symbol of their regaining spiritual freedom.

Of course, if you really believe in the True God of Heaven, Zhang Mai didn't mean that you would force them to betray their faith.

However, these "cultivists" in the Mesopotamian Basin have very shallow beliefs after all, and most people have not yet formed the living habits of the Tianfang Cult. After witnessing Satuk's failure, they knew that it was a very stupid behavior to insist on "Tianfang Faith" in this situation. So after Zhang Mai gave the order, most people ate pork with peace of mind. Therefore, it is true that tens of thousands of "Tianfang Cultists" abandoned church under Zhang Mai's religious policy, and the Mesopotamian Basin is no longer a country of Tianfang. From this perspective, Satuk did not slander Zhang Mai.

It can be imagined what effect this incident will be once it reaches Talas, reaches the river, and reaches the ears of those radical Tianfang scholars!

Satuk knew very well that Zhang Mai's move was to make the world of Tianfang Cult lose a country! He understood that the change of a country's monarch is nothing for many people of Tianfang Cult, and even the change of the Caliph is nothing!

But in just a few days a "nation country" has become the "nation of Kafir", which will be a major sin that cannot be tolerated in the minds of radical believers!

"Make the religious people lose their faith, the country of heaven shrinks, the people who are still alive lose hope, and the people who are in suffering lose their future... All of this is the great sin committed by Zhang Mai, and all of this is also the great sin committed by the Tang people!"

"From Shule, to Ningyuan, to Balashaguun, the Tang people are spreading like viruses. If they are not stopped, then they will definitely continue to drag Talas, Samarkand, Bukhara and even Baghdad into hell!"

"People lose faith one by one, just like they are infected with a plague. They are spreading and they are spreading! And this plague is obviously brought by Zhang Mai, and it is brought by the Tang people. This plague is Tang Fu!"

"If we cannot stop all this, if we let Tang Chao continue to spread... Then, if we die in the future, we will not be able to face the true God in heaven!"

Li Bin led a group of fortification soldiers and a group of highly qualified farmers into the Broken Leaf.

This was once the land where he grew up for a long time, but before he could feel emotion, he heard about Zhang Mai’s “destroying the religion”. He was shocked and rushed to see Zhang Mai regardless of everything. When Zhang Mai saw him, he smiled and said, “You are late. If you come a few days earlier, you will be able to drink my wedding wine.”

Li Bin looked at Zhang Mai's relaxed look and said, "Marson, you are still so leisurely!"

"What's wrong?" Zhang Mai asked.

"Whose idea was this matter? This is the way to cause chaos!"

Zhang Mai smiled and said, "What, I blame me for not having a side room here? Well, I should actually have a voice with Fen'er, but the things are too far apart, so when Guo Luo said that, I..."

"What I am talking about is not this!" Li Bin said: "What I am talking about is the matter of destroying Tianfang."

"Die Tianfang?" Zhang Mai said: "It's not Die Tianfang, I'm just implementing our established policies."

"But the marshal shouldn't rashly let all the people who have been washed away. Even if he really wants to do this, he should slowly try it." Li Bin sighed: "What a big mess it will cause! Once the reactions of the countries of Tianfang are aroused... I'm afraid that Satuk will use this opportunity to lure the countries of Tianfang against us. In that way, we will set up an unprecedentedly terrifying enemy!"

When Zhang Mai heard this, he put down his wine glass and his face became serious.

"An unprecedented terrible enemy?" He sneered: "An unprecedented terrible enemy has never been outside, but inside! The most terrible enemy is not necessarily doing something, but doing it according to the circumstances! It is better to do it early than to do it late than to do it slowly! It is better to cut the mess with a quick knife!"

He closed his eyes, as if recalling: "I have seen such a country that, in order to fear a small group of people's rebellion and a little so-called foreign public opinion, suppressed what they should do, and maintained an illusory stability day after day! Even though those terrible causes of disasters have spread from the border to the heart, they still covered their ears and stole the bell!
