Chapter 30 Del Madrigh
In the middle of the night, even the rain north of the middle ridge of the Elbus Mountains subsided, and Janis and others rushed back overnight.
In Shangkegu's tent, Yanis spread out a piece of white paper one foot square, with a map he drew with charcoal.
"The commander, this is Garland, and it is a small forest closest to the south of Shannan. It has rivers and military forts. However, the forests there are too many deforestation, and it is only a little sparse. This time, the heavy rain in the north of Shannan was completely fine, but the much less rainy mountain had an accident.
"The Garland military fort was originally made of wood, but when we arrived, it collapsed. It was obviously because of the soft foundation caused by the flooding, and there were no trace of people in the military fort."
"We are waiting to observe with a telescope at the height of this forest. Not far from the east side of the military fort is a desert canyon. There is a river in the canyon, which is usually intermittent and is dry most of the time. Now it is full of natural river water."
"This river is called Delmadrich. There is also a military fort on the west bank of the middle, which is crowded with people. Obviously, the people from the Garland military fort have also arrived there. Once it rains heavily on Mount Elbool, in the eyes of Persians, the mountain road is absolutely impossible to pass through."
"Even if the rain stops, the roadbed is soft and slippery, and it is not suitable for the army to pass, so they did not arrange for the detective cavalry to check all the way."
"Dermadrich was originally a branch of the Zoroastrian religion, which was the founder of the most primitive Mithra Sect. The place where he realized the truth was in that desert canyon, which was the only place in Persia that still openly believed in Mithra Sect."
"The Grand Food Church allows this to happen?"
"Yes, because all the people who believe in the Mitra religion are soldiers or hereditary soldiers, their leaders generally use the name Delmadrich, which is called the Delmadrich. They often plant food near military forts and hunt in the mountains as their source of life."
"In general, in addition to military training, they practice the teachings of Mithra. One advantage is that they focus on self-cultivation and do not have any disputes with secular regimes. Therefore, whether in the previous Persian Empire or the current Great Food Empire, they can be at peace with those in power."
"Therefore, those in power will not offend them for nothing, and they will also grant their leader the fortress lords of the military fortress to help those in power defend their territory."
"There are definitely not many such people. All of them are on both sides of the Elbrus Mountain. The Mitras located in Dorbastan have doubts about our country and have followed Tuobalu to Ashgabad. But in the south of the mountain, there is an intersection of deserts, grasslands, and forests, and almost every mountain pass has their military forts."
"The military fortress between Shabul and Semnan is their headquarters. The original leader named Jabbar, who offended the great cannibals. It is said that when he arrived in the Uighur Khanate, he became the great national master of the Manichi religion, but the core of the religion is the military leader, and his position name is Delmadrich."
"Since it is the headquarters, there are the most people there, about 300 people, all of whom are hereditary soldiers and believers nearby. They also have war horses and have complete training methods and weapons. Due to long-term training, they have strong combat power, but because of the small number of people and the peace with those in power, no one has seen their battles."
"By the way, the Mithra Church worships Taurus. The most obvious sign of them is the golden cow helmet, thick cowhide armor that reveals its arms. The weapons are daggers and shields, and there are spears, but they are still mainly daggers and shields. In addition, javelins are also used as long-range weapons. It is said that they are very similar to the Romans. Some people say that the Romans learned from the Mithra Church."
"The Garland military fort is naturally occupied by the cannibals. For a long time, the government forces and the Mitra Corps have not interfered with each other, and they will only go to the outside world when there are foreign enemies. However, due to the destruction of the Garland military fort, the government forces have gone to Delmadrich, which is rare in the past, and I don't know how the two sides get along..."
"Not care, let's take Garland Fort"
"yes"
......
Just as the Shangkegu mountain camp was struggling toward Garland Fort, at Fort Delmadrich, the sunny days after the rain did not disperse the haze here.
Exactly the same as the Black-clothed Food and Food, the believers of the Mithra religion were all wearing black. The military leader in this life was Delmadrich, Serasan Arif. His position was in front, and there were great considerations behind him.
Like the Zoroastrian religion, the Mithra religion also believes that there is a cycle of reincarnation for three thousand years, while this year belongs to the last century of reincarnation for three thousand years. In other words, in this century, light will eventually defeat darkness.
Therefore, in this century-old Delmadrich is named "third thousand", and in Persian, it is Serasan Arif.
To be simple, we call him "Serasan".
In fact, for the believers of Mithraism, it is not very different for them to rule by Zoroastrians or Mahapadas. In the previous Persian Empire, they were also pagans, but because the number of people was too small and they could obey the rule of the king, the people in power acquiesced their existence.
In the era of the Great Food and Food Couple, although the Caliphate inherited this tradition, the aggressiveness of the Great Food Cong was far beyond the reach of the Zoroastrian Church. If soldiers who believed in the Great Food Congregation and the Mithraites were stationed in two places, they would naturally be safe. However, the Great Food Congregation and retreated to Fort Delma at present because of the collapse of Garland Fort.
For the Mithras who have practiced doctrine for a long time, everyone except themselves is an enemy (dark), and for the Great Food soldiers, it is quite surprising that their regime can tolerate such an armed pagan existence.
Therefore, the situation in Fort Delma, which was sunny after the rain, was quite subtle.
The Turks who were appointed by Gazhewar to guard here were still a Turks. Their influence on the origin of the Mithra religion was far less profound than that of the Khorasans, and the subtle situation became even worse.
Abdullah is the name of the Turkish man. It is the name that almost all pagans will choose after converting to the Great Food Church, because the original meaning of this name is "the servant of the true Lord."
Abdullah was a descendant of aristocrat who was appointed to Hezhong as a military supervisor in the Western Turks. After the Western Turks declined, they migrated to Persia. Because of their military expertise, they were highly valued by the cannibals.
Abdula also had 300 men under his command. As part of the 50,000 cavalry, they were actually used as infantry. The Turks' tradition of being good at cavalry did not follow Abdula, but being able to be divided into the 50,000 permanent army by Gazwar, which shows that the combat power of Abdula's 300 men is also quite considerable.
These three hundred people all came from nomadic tribes with the Turks as the core, that is, tribes from the north and were previously called Kazakh grasslands by the Persians.
Such tribes obviously do not understand the Persian tradition.
Although Abdullah had also received a warning from the Imam with the army before, after coming to Fort Delma, due to limited resources, he immediately threw the warning from the Imam behind him.
"Immediately half of General Fortress is freed!"
This was the order Abdullah gave to Serasan before coming.
After receiving this order, Serasan hesitated for a long time, but he finally carried out according to Abdullah's wishes. He also had 300 households, and now he could only live together. In his opinion, the great cannibal would not live here for a long time, and he would pass by if he endured it.
However, the tests he faced were obviously more than these.
When Abdullah arrived, he had a new order.
"Give your residence out as my command post!"
This is unacceptable to Abdullah, because his residence is the temple of the Mithra religion! There is the most sacred thing in the religion, the portraits of the Mithra religion and the Taurus!
"no"
Serasan refused without hesitation - naturally, the secret of this religion would not be explained to Abdullah.
But Abdullah didn't think so. He thought that Serasan looked down on him, so he forced himself into Serasan's residence!
So he saw a stone wall, which carved the portrait of the secret of the Mithras. The most devout Jupiter had the urge to destroy all the sacred objects symbolizing the pagans. He was about to destroy the portrait with his short knife!
The anger in Serasan's heart was completely ignited. As a military leader who had been hereditary for thousands of years, he obviously also had a unique martial arts inheritance. He rushed towards Abdullah and killed him!
The castle was in chaos, and the two sides fought. In the end, the Mithras, who were familiar with everything in the castle, had martial arts and training better than the cannibals, defeated the cannibals without any surprise and killed most of them!
But in the end someone escaped.
Serasan knew that the matter was going to be met, but his first reaction was to send an envoy to explain to Shabul's governor, Gazelvar.
Shabul (Damgan).
Gazelvar was silent.
It was easy for him to take down the Fort Delma, but in Persia, there were at least one hundred military forts like this, and they had previously declared loyalty to the Great Food. Although all of them were far apart, there were more than 10,000 people in total!
what to do?
He decided to listen to the advice of the Great Imam.
"Governor, in my opinion, it is time to completely resolve the Mitras in the territory. They are not in close contact with the people and form a unity. They will capture and demolish all the military forts, and the Mitras in this world will no longer exist."
"But now, our caliph is based on benevolence and encourages pagans to convert to the great caucasians. If these Mithras can take this opportunity to convert to the original religion, it will be a great help to my teaching. If they refuse, it will be legitimate to send troops to attack again."
"But our enemy is the Rami Sect right now."
"Governor General, the Mithras cannot get along with any other sect. Their military forts are far apart and there are few people inside. Whenever we go, we just need to send a small number of soldiers to attack, which will not affect the main actions of the army."
"Okay, then I'll bother the big Imam."
Serasan soon received feedback from Gazelvar.
“Either join the Great Food Church or destroy”
Faced with this response, Serasan fell to the ground and said no sound for a long time.
Finally, he sent an envoy to Mount Elbors.
Chapter completed!
