Istanbul.

Under the command of the Sudan, the war machine of the Ottoman army started again.

The Sudanese soldiers have become accustomed to this state, as if war is common.

If you stop suddenly and don’t fight, it will make you feel a little strange.

Just like they were just preparing to attack those small European countries not long ago.

These small countries were overestimated to the point of becoming an alliance to compete with the Ottoman army.

Now the Ottoman army does not need to consider these things, because His Majesty the Sultan has made it clear that the main goal of the Ottoman in the future is to conquer the East.

To conquer the East, you must pass through the territory of the Safi Empire.

This is inevitable.

The idea of ​​the Ottoman army was to pass through the land of the Safi Empire, and everything would be fine as long as the Persians agreed to let them step over the land of the Safi Empire.

But if these Persians disagree, the powerful Ottoman army would not mind tearing up the settlement agreement with the Persians and attacking the Persians' cities.

Wouldn't it be beautiful to kill two birds with one stone?

In their minds, interests are the most important thing, and propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame are not worth mentioning.

As long as you can reach the east smoothly, there will be countless gold, silver and treasures waiting for them to move back.

This is the original words of His Majesty the Sultan and there will definitely be no falsehood.

The soldiers of the Ottoman army all had their appetites, and they wanted to put their wings on their own and flew to the east now.

As for the Ming Dynasty that established a dynasty in the East, they didn't take it seriously at all.

No matter how strong the Ming army is, can it be stronger than the Eastern Romans?

Those were the Romans who were worshipped by Europeans as gods, and they were not vulnerable to the Ottoman Iron Cavalry.

In fact, Ottoman soldiers are the toughest.

They believe in their sultans very much, and they believe that the Ottomans are blessed by God.

As long as they follow the instructions of God, they will definitely be able to capture treasures and land perfectly.

Large-scale marching consumed a lot of food, so the Ottomans only carried a part of the food and collected it along the way.

This can minimize the loss of food on the road, but in this way, the local food consumption will be large.

But local officials dare not speak out.

After all, this is the order of His Majesty the Sultan. They even violated no one dared to violate His Majesty the Sultan's will.

The army marched very quickly, and they were about to reach the border between the Ottoman and the Safi Empire within seven days!

…

…

"Your Majesty, the Ottomans are about to reach our armistice border."

In the palace, Helius reported to Emperor Abbas II with a serious expression.

Compared to the beginning, Abbas II now has a vague concern.

Although the Safi Empire had reached an alliance with the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was too far away from here after all.

It is difficult for the Ming army to reach Samarkand in a short period of time, let alone the territory of the Safa Empire.

The distant water cannot quench near thirst, and the Safi Empire can only count on itself in a short period of time.

Of course, with the current strength of the Safi Empire, there is still no problem if it lasts for a month.

Abbas II's idea was to defend against enemies outside the country and truly seek progress while maintaining stability.

When the Ming army arrived at Hezhong and the army of the Safi Empire merged, it was time for the joint attack.

You still have to endure it now.

"Just follow the previous plan. If they don't provoke, they will maintain the confrontation. In short, we can't start a war first and tear down the armistice agreement."

Abbas II still likes this very much.

The reason is also very simple. Whoever tears down the armistice agreement first is the party who is in the wrong.

Whoever is the one who is in the wrong will be despised morally.

Abbas II is not that thick-skinned, so he naturally doesn't want to be despised.

"Your Majesty, there is no problem with this. But will the Ming people really send troops to the war as they said?"

Helius is actually skeptical about this.

It was just that due to Abbas II's attitude, he could only choose to obey.

But this does not mean that he will not raise his own doubts.

"We can only choose to believe now. After all, the Ottomans are insatiable. If we don't take this opportunity to completely defeat them, we will suffer a great loss sooner or later."

Abbas II knew very well that with the wildness of the Ottomans, it was impossible to be satisfied with the rule of boundaries with the Safi Empire.

The peace now is only temporary, and the Persians must prepare for war at any time.

Instead of waiting passively for the war, it is better to start first.

"And I chose to trust Mingren, because I could see sincerity in the eyes of that messenger."

Abbas II thought he was accurate in his view of people, so he thought Liu Xingming would not lie to him.

Alas, when Helius saw Abbas II say this, he knew that no matter what he said, Abbas II would not listen.

Since that's the case, why are he still struggling?

After all, he still ate the food of the Safi Empire, so it was natural to obey the emperor's will.

If the emperor wants to fight, then fight. Anyway, the dynasty is not owned by Helius.

I just hope that God will protect the Safi Empire and the Persians, so that they can win this battle.

…

…

As the continuous influx of troops into the Western Regions, Li Dingguo was overjoyed.

His Majesty the Emperor is really wise and powerful, and he made the most correct decision at the most critical moment.

With these armies, Li Dingguo had a clear mind.

He could have transferred all the main forces of his own to the Hezhong area and left the troops who had just arrived in the Western Regions to garrison.

Moreover, Liu Xingming's health has almost recovered, and Li Dingguo can take Liu Xingming to the battle with him.

It is better to choose a day than to meet the day. Li Dingguo has decided to go to war, so he asked people to assemble the generals as soon as possible.

All the generals of Kuidong were among them.

These generals had already had a clear mind, and they arrived immediately after Li Dingguo's gathering.

They were already happy.

Before Li Dingguo could speak, Hao Yaoqi patted his chest and said, "Your Highness King Jin, please give orders. There is no war these days, but we have to be suffocated. Brothers, sharpen their knives all day long, just waiting to go into battle to kill the enemy."

Yuan Zongdi also said with a happy face: "Yes, yes, your Highness, King of Jin, please give an order. We can't wait to fight the Ottoman barbarians now. The Ottoman barbarians think they are invincible in the world, but they are actually just frogs in the well. They have not met my Ming cavalry, and when they meet, they will definitely blow their heads and tell them who is the real strong man."

Liu Xingming also added in a pan: "Your Highness, King Jin, we all obey your orders. We will not even frown when you give the order."

Liu Tichun looked at his son with relief, his eyes full of doting.

Li Laiheng cleared his throat and concluded: "Your Highness, please give an order!"
