General Sukhguman also came. He brought his men to escort Prince Landing back to the city. He wanted to say a few words to His Royal Highness the Prince, but he didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Prince didn't want to see them and directly ordered his men to set off.
Sukhkuman did not care too much about His Royal Highness's attitude. After all, this matter was a bit too much. He had so many generals under his command, but because these people were his confidants, Sukhkuman was unwilling to send them to die, so the more embarrassed His Royal Highness was chosen.
The Caliph hates you so much, and there is no place for you in the court. In the past, there was no such opportunity and no way to send you to the battlefield. Now you have finally found an opportunity. If you don't share the worries of your master, Sukhguman's position will not be so stable.
When he sent this memorial to the court, the Caliph immediately became happy, but when facing all the court officials, the ruler of the Arab Empire had to appear very sad. He scolded Sukhguman and said that this guy did not think about himself. The Arab Empire had so many powerful generals, but he actually sent his own brother to the battlefield. This was simply a sinister intention.
The court ministers were almost deceived at that time. When they saw the Caliph's expression, they really thought that Sukhguman was flattering the Caliph and that he was flattering the wrong person. The Caliph might just be a brotherly person, but you, as a guy, insisted on making such an unacceptable request, which would definitely be punished.
But everyone soon realized something was amiss. How could Sukhgum have dared to make such a request without the Caliph's authorization? Most people thought he had risen to power through military industry, but more high-ranking officials understood that this guy was actually the Caliph's subordinate. Although he had certain military talents, he would not have been able to command such a large army without the Caliph's trust.
How could such a person make decisions without any basis? It must have been done after careful consideration, or it might have been directly authorized by the Caliph. So no matter how the Caliph scolded Sukhkuman, these people unanimously demanded that His Royal Highness be allowed to join the war. Why could the children of ordinary people die in battle, while the son of the previous Caliph had to hide in the barracks?
If someone had said this in the past, the Caliph would definitely find a way to bury your entire family, but now he can use this to get his younger brother into the military camp. Sometimes royal brothers are not brothers at all, they can be said to be enemies of each other.
Take Prince Landin for example. He was once valued by the previous caliph and almost inherited the throne. It is the most embarrassing thing for such a person to live. He will definitely be feared by the current caliph. So when there is such an opportunity to go to the battlefield, who else would it be given to?
In this case, there is no need to keep such a person. We must find a way to send him to the battlefield, and the more dangerous the battlefield, the better. If it is not dangerous enough, letting him stroll around the battlefield is likely to accumulate military merits, which is not what the Caliph wants to see.
"Have you arranged everything? We must ensure the safety of His Royal Highness the Prince."
Suheguman stroked his beard and said, the people around him are all smart people, and they don’t know whether this safety has another meaning. Of course, they are just guessing. When it comes to royal matters, you just need to think about it in your heart. If you dare to say it out loud, the execution of your entire family will not be far away.
"Please rest assured, Marshal. We have arranged for more than 20 guards to constantly guard His Royal Highness. Nothing will happen. Even if the battle situation is unfavorable, they will escort His Royal Highness back first."
A young general said, of course, this was said to the people around him. If the truth was to be told, His Royal Highness the Prince would not come back alive. No matter whether the battle situation was good or bad, His Royal Highness the Prince would die under the artillery fire of the Tang Dynasty.
On the one hand, it can inspire the soldiers of the Arab Empire to avenge our prince. On the other hand, and most importantly, the Caliph will feel relieved. This younger brother is like a thorn, always living in the Caliph's throat, so it is natural to pull out this thorn at this time.
Of course, Sukhguman will not receive any reward for this matter, but he will be able to leave a good impression in the Caliph's heart. If he makes any mistakes in the future, what he did today may be able to save his life.
Some of the old ministers looked unhappy. They all came from the days of the previous caliph. Now His Royal Highness the Prince was sent to the battlefield like this. It was really a shame to the previous caliph. But then again, you are the culprit of all this, and we are powerless to do anything.
"It will take some time for them to arrive at the Caspian Sea battlefield, so we don't need to worry about them. After these 80,000 people leave, the most important thing is to hurry up and recruit soldiers to fill the gap. I don't think the Tang army will stay there for too long. This is just a stopgap measure. Once their strength stabilizes, they will return. We must start training all our soldiers from today and use new tactics to deal with the Tang army."
Seeing that the convoy had gone far away, Sukhguman got on his warhorse. Although the people around him wanted to see him off for a while, they could only follow obediently in the end. A new emperor appoints new ministers. It is your business to miss the past, but if someone reports it to the current caliph, you will be in big trouble.
The Empire is recruiting soldiers again...
When the word "conscription" was heard, the people present felt a headache. It was normal for a big empire to recruit some soldiers when it wanted to use foreign troops, but now the conscription of soldiers was too frequent. If this continued, domestic unrest would probably not be far away.
In the past, there were plenty of foreign soldiers, but after fighting with the Tang Empire, they also deeply felt that the role played by foreign soldiers was extremely limited, and at critical moments, we had to rely on ourselves.
