"The Spike Army is too fast. Their ferocious horses are faster than our flying blankets. And they are moving forward bravely. If there are chaos on the road, they can be crushed directly. Unlike the Guards, they were routed back. If the large army blocks the road, and you can't kill your own comrades to clear the way, your pace will be much slower."
Ma Lun frowned and said to Zhen Shen, "If this continues, the Spike Army will definitely be able to intercept the Guards before they return to Mulu City. The morale of the Guards is not high now, and the Spike Army's momentum is like a rainbow. It is very difficult for the army to resist them. If the Guards cannot return to defend Mulu City smoothly, the battle will completely collapse."
Mullen knew exactly what kind of plan the Spike Army was rushing westward in such a hurry.
In the southern part of the Black Khanate, the Tiger Guards and Habayashi Army also followed closely behind the Guards. Behind the opponent, in a wider rear, the Great Tang Chang'an Forbidden Army rushed over like sea water.
In short, if there is a little carelessness, the eastern border of Dashi will not be guaranteed. Once the Tang army enters the country, and the guards are too severely damaged, or the entire army is wiped out, then the whole country will fall into the flames of war and face the threat of national subjugation.
Thinking of Huluncheng's defeat, Ma Lun felt like a knife pierced his heart. He never expected that Li Ye would be so powerful. With the help of the power of the true god, he was still defeated so simply. Just like the old saint Buddha of Shimen before, he lost no suspense in front of the true god.
Afterwards, Li Ye's words of condemnation when discussing Dao with him almost made his Dao heart unstable. If he hadn't been a hero of the generation and stabilized his state of mind in time, it would be a problem whether Dao Xin is still there at this time.
Although Dao Xin is stable, the battle situation may not be stable, and Ma Lun has to frown. Fortunately, the true god is still there. In his mind, the true god is omnipotent and will surely help him tide over the crisis.
Back then, he was just an ordinary son of the caliph. His mother was humble, and his appearance was not outstanding in the court. It was not easy to be favored by the caliph for a while. When he was growing up, he did not have a sense of superiority. , and is often underestimated by his powerful brothers.
No one deliberately bullied him. After all, he is not a weak character. Even if the opponent is too many and powerful, he still wants to bite the opponent. However, the feeling of being ignored and alienated is not much better than being bullied.
When I was young, I was not very sensible. I always felt that I had suffered injustice. I wanted to earn some face when I grew up, so that those who looked down on me would appreciate me, and I would please myself by looking at my face, and let my mother , To be able to be in the court without having to lower your eyebrows and be pleasing to the eye everywhere.
But when he was really almost an adult, he experienced and saw a lot of things, and Ma Lun realized that these experiences of his were actually normal, and they were far from deep hatred. The idea of wanting to start a career is even more childish and ridiculous. Without the favor of the caliph, I would be a rich and idle person at best.
However, this allows him to still be respected and feared by ordinary people in Dashi, but he cannot enter the top circle of powerful people, which is not a big deal.
If it was an ordinary prince, he would have nothing to be dissatisfied with in such a situation. However, Mullen is different. He is not willing to be ignored. He wants to make a difference, wants to be valued and respected, and hopes that others will look at him in awe.
Especially after seeing the Turkic generals in charge of the guards often trespassing in the palace, and even committing crimes, he wanted to protect him even more.
own mother.
So he worked hard and devoted himself to practice.
However, things often fail to meet people's wishes. Although his talent is not bad, it is not very good. After years of hard work, he is still far from the height he wants.
This kind of loss often keeps him awake at night, and sometimes it even tortures him to the point of going crazy, really going crazy-when what you want, no matter how hard you try, you can't achieve it, but you just can't achieve it, and you will let yourself go crazy. It's always easy to go crazy when you're in dire straits and you're so disappointed in yourself.
Originally, Mullen was about to collapse, until he heard the voice of the true god and gained the favor of the true god.
From that moment on, his fate was changed. With the help of the power of the true god, his ordinary aptitude could be improved by leaps and bounds. He began to show his extraordinaryness little by little, subdued and gathered the people around him, and gradually cultivated his own wings and power. And with the help of the true god, he was supported by the Great Temple of the Crescent Sect.
So, he began to cut off the Turkic dignitaries in the Guards, and finally wiped them all out. After that, he was even more favored by the Caliph, and his status became completely different from before.
At this time, he accidentally brought down a corrupt official once, and when he was going out one day, he was stopped by someone and knelt down to thank him. And after this incident spread, he was well received by more common people, and many rich and powerful daughters who didn't pay attention to him before began to praise him more.
This allows Mullen to keenly capture a smooth path of interest, which can allow him to gain more avenues.
He began to attack the treacherous ministers in a planned way.
As traitorous officials are eliminated one by one, his reputation is getting bigger and bigger. When he goes out, he will be respected by the dignitaries and praised by the common people.
My mother also benefited from this, and was finally able to give priority to the various rewards sent to the harem by the Caliph. Those court ladies who had ridiculed her in the past also began to please her one after another, so the sadness on her mother's face gradually dissipated, replaced by day-to-day smile of the day.
This made Mullen realize his own strength and realize the value of standing on a high ground. He was addicted to this taste of giving and receiving, and finally understood what it means to be "a man who has no power for a day". His heart that had been depressed for many years suddenly opened up, and the dazzling and warm sunshine greeted him, and he felt sincere happiness.
By this time, his youthful goal had been achieved. But he is no longer satisfied with this. People go to high places and water flows to low places. He still wants more, wants to stand higher. At that time, he realized that the prince wanted the throne, and the sons of the rich and powerful wanted the position of the head of the family, the sons of ordinary people competed for family property, and the poor with nothing wanted to eat and clothe themselves. This was the same need.
When his large-scale purge of treacherous ministers aroused the caliph's dissatisfaction and fear, and when he was about to be suppressed and released, Maren could no longer tolerate it, and he returned to the old days of being aggrieved and neglected. Almost without any hesitation, he launched the palace change, and with the help of the true god, he succeeded without many twists and turns.
Since then, he has become the Caliph of the Great Food, the only existence that does not need to look at anyone's face, does not need to be despised by anyone, and can be respected by everyone. Wherever he walks, he is a lofty existence, he can look down on others as much as he wants, and accept the gazes of others.
This kind of happiness and satisfaction makes Maren often laugh so hard that he can't fall asleep in the middle of the night.
Aftertaste carefully. When he was in the hall, looking at the courtiers prostrate at his feet, it was logical that he felt that he was extremely proud.
He doesn't intend to indulge in the glory of the past, and he doesn't want to spend this life in enjoyment. He is still very young, and he wants to create greater achievements. He is no longer satisfied with being praised and respected by the people in front of him, he also wants to be worshiped by future generations, he wants his name to be remembered forever in the history books, and to be sung by countless descendants.
That's what he should do, and only then will he gain the truly unparalleled glory.
As a result, Mullen began to rectify the imperial court, made great efforts to govern, and expanded the territory.
The true god expressed his high appreciation for his actions, and said that as long as he unifies this world, his name will be immortal, and future generations will remember that he is the first person to complete the unification. No matter how the historical situation changes in the future, his name will become the bright moon in everyone's heart and will never fall.
Such a scene made Mullen's hands tremble with excitement, and he embarked on the journey again, to a new level, to create another glory of his own.
From an ordinary prince in the court, who just wants not to be underestimated and to gain the respect of others, to the caliph of the Great Food Empire, who wants to unify the world and be praised by all ages, every step forward, Mullen will gain new motivation and goals.
There is no end to the road, nor is there any end to the world in Xingzhe's eyes. He is confident that when he unifies this world, he will look back and see himself who is practicing hard in the court, and he will smile very gratified and proud.
But he didn't expect that in the far east, in that powerful country that once blocked the progress of the Great Food Expedition, there would be an opponent of his destiny, and he would defeat him on the battlefield with dignity.
It terrified him.
But when the panic subsided, there was only war in his chest.
He wants to defeat Li Ye.
He knew that as long as he defeated Li Ye, he would be immortal forever! This is the last big hurdle in his extraordinary life, and if he passes it, the world will be vast.

What the real god said, Mu Lun didn't hear very clearly, his eyes gradually became as hard as steel, and his brows were as sharp as a sharp sword, "The Spike Army wants to intercept and kill my guards, but the guards are not sure they can do it." Return to Mulu City in time, since that's the case, why don't I use my strategy and let the Guards set up an ambush for the Spike Army in the middle, and give Shangguan Qingcheng a big surprise?"
The True God paused for a moment, and his voice was calm, "If things don't work out, the guards will be doomed forever."
Marlon laughed, laughed out loud, and the laughter seemed to pierce through the clouds.
He said: "When a large army fights, the country will prosper if it wins, and the country will perish if it loses. It has been like this in ancient times. Is there any reason why you dare not fight because you are afraid of failure? There are still many guards who have withdrawn from Hulun City and Axu City. 200,000, the Spike Army is less than 100,000 now, if you dare not fight, I might as well surrender!"
The tone of the true god became serious: "Yes, after experiencing a lot of setbacks, it is rare for you to still have such a fighting spirit. Arrange it according to your ideas. This is our common war, and we are needed Let's work together and do our best to win!"
"Praise you, my great and only true God!" Mullen smiled more confidently. In his mind, he already had a rough plan of where to set up an ambush and how to lure and annihilate the Spike Army.
