Chapter 901, The grand procession sets off.
The large group set off.
To their surprise, the people of the city lined the streets to see them off.
...
Prince Dastan of Persia led an army of 200,000 men straight toward Han Xin's encampment.
"The warriors of the empire quickened their pace."
"We must find these beasts from the Far East as soon as possible, no matter what."
"No one shall be allowed to lay a finger on the land of our Persian Empire."
"No matter who they are, if they dare to come, we must wipe them out completely. Do you all understand?"
"yes……"
These Persian troops, dressed in long robes and carrying scimitars, quickened their pace.
In their view.
As long as the Persian prince was dispatched, they were guaranteed victory. No matter who the enemy was, they would not be able to gain the slightest advantage. The army marched off into the distance, leaving an incredible trail in the vast desert.
These Persian troops had never seen Han Xin's army before, and they had no idea how terrifying it was. At this moment, they blindly believed in the abilities of their Persian prince.
These people believed that as long as their Persian prince took action, they would be able to defeat anyone.
"Your Highness, I estimate we'll reach the distant City of Quicksand in a few days. Look how many vultures are flying in the sky over that direction!"
The Persian prince looked up into the distance and, just as his men had said, there were many vultures flying and flapping in the air in the direction of Six Sands City.
This means that someone has already occupied that place.
"I don't have much time to waste. What I need to do now is to quickly take over Flowing Sand City."
"Once they take our land, they will be our eternal enemy. We will fight to the death to wipe them out, but we cannot give them any opportunity to take advantage of us. If we give them any opportunity, who knows what they will do."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded repeatedly. At this moment, they were as excited as if they had been injected with adrenaline, eager to get there as soon as possible.
The city of quicksand is not called that for nothing; it is filled with quicksand, and if you make a mistake, the consequences will be unimaginable.
...
After Han Xin's troops left the city, everyone looked at the vultures circling in the sky.
"Commander Han's maps have exposed all our operations. We should kill all these vultures."
Han Xin, however, did not take it seriously. In his view, since these maps could expose their actions, it was not a bad thing.
The Persian people will surely find a way to come, so they can stay here, rest and wait for them to arrive.
We will definitely be able to kill them all, leaving no one alive.
"Let's wait here." Han Xin had only been born a short time when he noticed countless vultures flying over from the distant sky.
What does this mean? Even a fool should know.
"We've been waiting for so long, it seems the other side must have sent quite a few people. Since they've already sent quite a few, there's no need for us to leave the city. Let's just wait here."
"Let's stay here and wait for them to arrive."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement; no one was willing to proceed through the vast desert.
Moreover, they would have to fight to the death in this vast desert.
Most of them were willing to wait a little longer in this oasis.
"General, if that's the case, then we should push it into the city."
"No need to say more, quickly push them into the city." Han Xin quickly issued the order.
Yes, I just left the city, and less than an hour later they quickly returned.
The people inside the carriage were overjoyed to see Han Xin's army return to the city once again, and the streets were filled with singing and dancing.
"Warriors from the East, are you not leaving? If you are not leaving, that would be a great thing for us. What we hope for most is that you can stay here."
“We’re willing to do anything as long as you stay here. Please don’t leave so easily. We’ve had enough of these men from the Persian Empire.”
"These men of the Persian Empire can't do anything right. Their favorite thing to do is fart. They're all a bunch of arrogant bastards."
The women of the Persian city of Shifting Sands were beaming with joy; this was something they had never imagined before. In their eyes, these men were far superior to the men of their own country.
"Don't worry, we're not leaving."
"At least for this time, we don't understand what we'd do if we left now."
Han Xin took a telescope and climbed the city wall, looking into the distance, where all that remained was a vast expanse of yellow sand.
Although the enemy army is not visible, the vultures overhead should be visible. They have brought a large number of vultures, which are circling above the enemy's projection as they approach Flowing Sand City.
"General Han, at their current pace, they should be able to reach the city walls in another two or three days."
"These people are dawdling, I really don't know what they're doing."
“We’ve occupied their territory for so long and they’re still dawdling here. They should have come over long ago and faced their doom.”
Han Xin could already tell how many people the enemy had just by looking at the vultures flying overhead.
The enemy's numbers far exceeded Han Xin's expectations. Han Xin estimated that the enemy had brought at least one or two hundred thousand men.
Then they would annihilate these 100,000 to 200,000 people. Once these 100,000 to 200,000 people were wiped out, the blow to the Persian Empire would undoubtedly be enormous.
"Tell the brothers to eat and drink well for two or three days, and then we'll kill all these bastards who came here."
"yes……"
The people inside the city have already prepared their defenses.
Everyone was already there, ready and waiting. Everyone knew that they just had to wait for the other side.
They came here to die.
...
Two days later, the Persian prince's army of 200,000 men appeared in the distance of the desert.
These people looked like countless tiny black dots on the vast sea of sand, slowly moving forward.
These people, dressed in long white robes, rode on camels, which were not very fast.
"They're here, they're here! These bastards have finally arrived, but I never expected there to be so many of them."
