Dahan Pirate Air Force

Chapter 97 Tokens

The right bank of the Tigris River was filled with smoke. Several docks along the river were on fire at the same time. The rows of warehouses next to the docks were filled with black smoke and light from the fire.

In the dark night, the cavalry whistled and rushed around, holding torches and lighting fires everywhere.

The food and fodder of the Parthian army was burned!

On the high ground by the river, several fat and strong war horses stood quietly. Guards holding heavy lances guarded a luxuriously decorated white war horse in the middle. On the war horse sat a 27-year-old Persian. noble.

His slender eyes, black eyes hidden under thick eyebrows.He has a beard and his jaw is trimmed neatly and carefully.Wearing a golden high hat-shaped helmet on his head, and golden chain armor all over his body, he is light and strong.There is a round shield on the left shoulder, which is enough to cover the upper arm, and a beautifully decorated Persian sword hangs on the left waist.

The most eye-catching thing is a golden copper hammer hanging on the right waist. The hammer handle is as thick as a child's arm. The hammer head is only one circle thicker than the hammer handle. It is carved into the shape of the sun's rays. It is impressive and unforgettable.

This young nobleman riding a horse is Shapur, the prince of Sassanid Persia.

"Your Highness, do you think this is okay? Do you want to retreat to the camp while Paiya doesn't respond? We have achieved a major victory this time." A guard asked.

"There's no need to worry. Just keep burning for a while. The Parthian oven soldiers can't learn to fight quickly, so you can add more fire." Shapur replied, "Look, how beautiful the scenery is at night. This was created by the Eternal Life Army. The most beautiful scenery on earth. Unfortunately, it would be even more perfect if my dear father could also see it."

The soldiers couldn't help but smile, their eyes full of trust and admiration.

By the river, the cavalry team holding torches, like fire dragons, repeatedly ravaged the desert on the right bank of the Tigris River.

......

In the big tent, Brother Ma was talking to and comforting Daolao who was crying silently.

The fighting outside the tent had stopped. Mu Jing's wind and sand technique turned into sharp blades and quickly harvested the members of the Blood Underworld Sect outside the tent. If Zhang Bai hadn't reminded her to stay alive, none of them would have been left alive.

Chen Huo and Zheng Chuo led their own soldiers to guard the remaining five or six Blood Ming Sect prisoners.

This was their first official battle since they formed an army.Although the scale was small, facing opponents who were stronger and more numerous than him in individual combat, he killed and injured more than a dozen followers of the Blood Hades Sect, while only two of his own were slightly injured, so his record was quite good.After winning the first battle, everyone was a little excited.

Zhang Bai knew that he didn't need to worry about the rest, so he came to the bodies of Tie Mingshi and Ziyeshi and searched them up like Leon Sanguang.

There were a few gold coins, a token, and the weapon blood cord in his hand, but nothing else.

In addition to money and blood ropes from Tie Mingshi, Zhang Bai took out three tokens and a silver square box with gorgeous carvings.

He was happy when he opened the box. Isn't this the imperial medicine?Not as much as last time, but this box of imperial medicine seems to be in good condition, as you can tell just by looking at the exquisiteness of the packaging.He thought to himself that he and Imperial Medicine were really destined, and it seemed that the Tie Mingshi came here specifically to flatter him.

He quickly hid the imperial medicine in the tattooed treasure box, but then took out the two tokens he had obtained earlier from the box.

These two tokens were collected from Ma Ge and the knife-wielding night angel when he subdued him. The knife-wielding night angel was dead and Ma Ge had never mentioned this matter, so these two tokens The token has always been kept with him.

He held six tokens and compared them. He found that the patterns and colors of the tokens were different and seemed to have different uses and effects.The two tokens he had saved previously were blue, the Purple Night Envoy's token was purple, and the Tie Ming Envoy had two purple and one dark red tokens.

Zhang Bai was quite familiar with this dark red token. He had gotten one from Zhang Di and Hui Yejie before, and it was with this quick token that he escaped Gui Kuzi's trap.He was so impressed that these tokens could save his life that he quickly collected them all.

There was a commotion outside the tent, and General Dadherbun had already been alerted. He immediately ordered a group of personal guards to go to the scene of the accident.However, as soon as the troops left, he received another even more shocking news: the grain and grass warehouses by the river had been attacked by the Sasanians.

Dadheboun was so angry that he cursed the generals who guarded the food and grass as useless. Then he personally mounted his horse, took all the remaining cavalry with him and hurriedly set off.

The leader of the army that was sent to Daolao's tent was Solomon.He and Daolao were of the same rank. They were both captains of a thousand men in the Parthian army, and each led a large army.

After the two met, Solomon asked about the situation. Daolao told him that two centurions under his command rebelled and a battle broke out after being discovered by him. Now that the rebellion has been put down, he showed Solomon the bodies of the Ironborn and the Purple Night Angel.Solomon had no doubts and immediately accepted his statement.He usually had a good relationship with Daolao. Although Daolao was serious and boring, he was a capable man who was good at commanding troops and making strategies. As a soldier, Solomon had a good impression of him.

At this time, a subordinate bodyguard came to report that the Sasanian cavalry attacked the brigade guarding the grain and grass warehouse and burned the grain and grass.Everyone present was stunned. Everyone understood that the army was encountering a problem.

The Parthian army was stationed near the Tigris River. The docks on the river were close at hand, and ships could go directly to the capital, and the transportation channels for grain and grass were smooth.

However, whether the Parthian Empire's economy can withstand this disaster is what everyone is worried about.Can the empire raise another batch of food and grass in a short time?If this fails, the morale of the army will be a big problem, and Parthia will probably have to withdraw.

There is the large city of Isfahan near the Omizdagan Plain, and the nearby Media area is the base for the founding of Parthia. Once lost, it will shock the hearts of the people, and the capital will face the enemy directly, and there will no longer be a barrier.In addition, the political opponent entrenched in Babylonia in the rear, the contender for the Parthian throne Vorogis VI, will definitely be ready to make a move.

Zhang Bai was shocked and thought, maybe this is also an opportunity.

"Solomon, I heard that you will have a regular military meeting tomorrow?" Zhang Bai asked.

"Oh! Yes! If the general can return to camp as soon as possible, there will be a lot to talk about tomorrow." Solomon shrugged.

"Can you do me a favor?" Zhang Bai said, "The king also hopes to attend tomorrow's meeting, so I hope you can make some suggestions to the general."

He pointed at Daolao, "I guarantee that Captain Daolao will definitely agree with your suggestion."

Solomon frowned, scratched his hair, and looked at several people: "I said, don't put me on the fire. I'm not a politician. I just want to fight a few wars and make enough money. Don't Die on the battlefield."

"It will be okay. You just need to tell the general that this is the king's request. You just sent a message."

Solomon thought for a while and finally shook his head, "I don't understand what you want to do? But this should be fine."

"Thank you then, don't worry! Your help will benefit everyone, except the enemy Sasanian Persia."
