At the beginning, Yousuf advocated advancing eastward, conquering China, and enslaving China. These ministers were very happy, as if they were injected with chicken blood. Because China is the legendary "golden kingdom", if it conquered China, it would be infinitely beneficial.

Now, when the Tang army came and the Arab Empire was in turmoil, they put all the blame on Yousuf, saying that this was the disaster brought by Yousuf, and they were really shameless.

Malik asked one question so much that they could not answer.

"Calif. The Chinese are calling us. Our situation is not good. Let's discuss how to deal with the situation in front of us first." When a minister saw that Malik was angry, he hurried to change the topic.

"Hmph." We should discuss solutions at the moment instead of scolding these ministers. Malik snorted coldly and said, "Everyone said, how should we deal with it."

"Calif., since the news of Persia's restoration spread, our situation has been very bad. The resistance in various places has become increasingly fierce and has swept the whole country. Although we have many troops, we cannot suppress it everywhere."

"Yes. These pagans are so hateful. They are doing evil to bandits everywhere, killing our people, and rob our wealth. There are also pagans who collude with the Chinese to lead the Chinese attack."

"If we had known this, we should have killed all these pagans."

The ministers started to scream, talking about rebellions everywhere.

To put it in an analogy, the Arab Empire has long been a powder keg, and it only takes a little Mars to detonate. When the Tang army arrived, Persia was restored to Mars, which successfully detonated this powder keg, causing turmoil in various places.

"Kill them all? You know that you will kill them all. We are the only one left. What's the use of conquering these lands?"

"There is no more people. Only land is left, but it is just a desert."

A minister immediately refuted that conquest is not only for the land, but more for the population. Only land and no population, is conquering still interesting?

"I have been wondering if the religious strategy we forcibly implemented is wrong. Wherever we go, resistance is always so fierce. No matter how we suppress it, it is useless. The biggest reason why they resist is that they are unwilling to believe in Allah."

"You are too much. If you don't believe in Allah, even pagans, you should die. This is the rule set by the prophet."

"If you don't believe in Allah, you will die. If you don't leave a way out for others, who can't resist? Should we think of other ways?"

Some ministers became suspicious of the religious policies of the Arab Empire.

This turbulent situation today is largely due to the religious policies of the Arab Empire. Especially in Persia, because it was the territory of Manichaeism. This tough and barbaric religious policy was most fiercely resisted. This is the reason why the Arab Empire conquered Persia for decades but could not pacify Persia.

"It's been so time, you're still arguing." Malik shouted in a deep voice with a bad face.

The ministers immediately shut up.

"You are right. The big reason for this situation today is that we are strongly promoting religion." Malik nodded and said, "Yousoft once wrote a letter to me, asking us not to promote religion so savagely and toughly anymore, and to leave a way out for these pagans. We can solve it by collecting taxes. If we do not believe in Allah, we must pay high taxes."

"This is a good method. It can leave a way for pagans to survive and increase taxes for us."

"It's a pity that it's too late. The Chinese have called, and no matter how good the solution is, it's useless."

Although Malik's words won praise, they were also regretful.

It is indeed too late, and if it was proposed and implemented earlier, the situation would be very different.

Historically, it took some time for the Arab Empire to change its course on religious issues. Now, because the Tang Dynasty was invaded, Yousuf has proposed this solution in advance due to the situation.

It is precisely because of the change of religious policies that the Arab Empire in history has truly stabilized and has been integrated under the common religion and has the strength to be integrated.

Now, all this is nothing more than a bubble.

"Great Caliph, big things are bad, big things are bad." At this moment, a personal guard came quickly and shouted from afar.

The Arab Empire is now in a turmoil and big things are already bad. If there is any big thing, it will definitely make things worse. Everyone's faces suddenly become gloomy and they stare at the personal guard.

"What's the matter?" Malik asked in a deep voice.

"The great caliph, there was a turmoil in Spain." The guard hurriedly reported, saying: "The Spaniards resisted everywhere, and now the whole of Spain is no longer stable."

The Umayyad dynasty launched a large-scale war, and Yusuf was responsible for the East, who wanted to conquer the Tang Dynasty and enslave the Tang Dynasty. The West attacked Spain, conquered Spain, and laid the foundation for the territory of the Arab Empire.

However, Spain was extremely unstable. In the past, it could still be suppressed by the powerful military strength of the Arab Empire. Now, news of Persia's restoration has been heard, and riots have occurred in various parts of Spain. The garrison here wants to suppress it, but the troops are not strong enough to suppress it. Therefore, the entire Spain is no longer owned by the Arab Empire.

"Hmph." Malik snorted coldly, about to get angry.

However, another guard hurried in and reported to him, saying, "The great caliph, there was a turmoil in Syria. The pagans here killed our officers and soldiers and plundered our granaries. The whole of Syria is no longer our own."

Syria is considered to be a place to conquer earlier, but there are also many pagans here. They do not want to believe in Muslims and are fighting against the Arab Empire at all times.

Malik's face was gloomy again.

Syria is very important to the Arab Empire. Even this is no longer owned by the Arab Empire, and the blow is too heavy.

However, there was a more severe blow.

"The great caliph, the great things are bad, the great things are bad." Another guard hurried in and shouted, "The Egyptian governor ceded himself and claimed that he would no longer surrender to the great caliph."

"What? Cut the land and dominate it?" Malik jumped high and screamed loudly like a charcoal fire falling into his crotch.

"Impossible!" The ministers also shouted, all of them in shock.

They can still accept the resistance of the pagans. After all, the pagans are resisting all the time. If they do not resist at this time, they are not pagans.

However, as the governor of Egypt, he openly resisted, no longer surrendered, and cedeed himself. This is a precedent and the consequences are very terrible. If the Arab Empire cannot suppress immediately, it will trigger a chain reaction and many local officials will follow suit.

"He still...remain..." the guard stammered.

"What an ugly thing?" Malik raised his brow and shouted like a sharp sword.

The guard shrank his neck and said hurriedly: "He also said that the great caliph was incorrect in his position, and that it was a traitor in the people, and everyone should be punished."

"Bang!" Malik's face turned pale, he grabbed the golden cup in front of him and slammed it heavily on the ground, and cursed loudly: "Fuck! Tell him the bullshit! He's just fart!"

This period was when the Umayyad dynasty ruled the Arab Empire. This dynasty ended the era of the four major caliphs and was the first dynasty in the history of the Arab Empire. If it really came to light, its throne would be incorrect.

Although the Umayyad dynasty has been established for fifty years, the influence of the four major caliphs is still there, and many people want to restore the inheritance system during the four major caliphs. For this reason, the Umayyad dynasty has fought a lot, and there are still many places in the country opposing this dynasty, and wars break out from time to time.

As soon as Malik's thoughts turned here, it was confirmed that his idea was right.

Three personal guards came in, and each reported the betrayal of officials from all over the country. They not only announced their separation from the Arab Empire, but also claimed that they would attack Malik and kill the family.

"The great caliph, the holy land of Mecca has rebelled." Another guard's face was pale, without a trace of blood, as if buried in the soil, with a look of fear on his face.

"What? Mecca rebelled?" A scream sounded, and the king and his ministers were stunned.

Mecca is a holy land of Muslims, which is very important. However, it is not without enemies. The prophet was once driven away by the ancestors of the Umayyad Dynasty. Fortunately, there is another member of this family who is a loyal follower of the prophet and has also become one of the four major caliphs.

This blow was too heavy, and the monarch and ministers were directly petrified.

"The great caliph, something bad is wrong, something bad is wrong, something bad is wrong, and a rebellion broke out in Damascus."

"There are pagans everywhere, the rebellious slaves everywhere, and the rebellious sinners everywhere."

At this moment, a group of guards rushed in, shouting in a verbal manner, each of them frightened and uneasy.

Damascus was the capital of the Arab Empire, and the empire had a large number of troops here. However, in order to maintain the daily operation of the capital, a large number of coolies and slaves were needed. When the news of the Tang army advancing west came, could these slaves and coolies not rebel?

After their riots, they plundered and intercepted the Arab Empire's army.

"Caliph, send troops to suppress it."

"Yes. If you can't suppress it, it will be unimaginable once the Chinese arrive."

The ministers were busy reminding him.

If these slaves and the coolie were not suppressed, once the Tang army arrived, Damascus would be defeated. Damascus was very strong, but it could not stand the inside and outside cooperation.

Not to mention, the Tang army was extremely powerful. Zhang Shuo was resourceful. If he could take Guer, he would naturally be able to take Damascus.

"Hurry up, send troops to suppress it." Malik's face turned pale and shouted in a deep voice: "All rebels, kill them! His family, relatives, kill them!"

This is an extraordinary period, and the rebellion must be quelled as soon as possible with iron-blooded means.

As soon as the order was passed, a large number of Arab emperors were dispatched to suppress the rebellion.

What is unexpected is that the more suppressed the rebellion, the more chaotic it becomes, because the morale of the army is unstable and the combat power is gone, so it is no longer possible to suppress the rebellion.

Think about it, even the holy land of Mecca has been rebellious, isn’t the blow to the morale of the army still heavy?

Not long after, the Tang army arrived.
