Chapter 579 Fire in the Backyard
Abu Saiza took the parchment with a happy face and slowly opened it.

Bukhara Tumian was stationed in the East Chagatai area, with 20 troops in his hands, strong and strong.

In terms of time, it should be here soon.

As soon as these 20 people arrive, the Ming army can...

Abu Saiza looked at the contents on the parchment, and the expression on his face suddenly froze, and then turned into anger.

Balulasi felt that something was wrong, so he asked, "Khan, is Bukhara delaying again?"

The only possibility he could think of was that Bukhara failed to arrive on time.

20 horses are not a small number. Preliminary preparations, food escort, team assembly, and order issuance... If there is a problem in any link, a lot of time will be wasted.

"Ming army is hateful, hateful!"

Abu Saiza slammed the parchment heavily, with a look of rage on his face.

Baru Lasi felt very surprised, so it doesn't matter if it is delayed for a few days. As for getting so angry?
However, just now profusely explained that the army is hateful. Could it be that there is something about the Ming army?

He turned his head and thought of a possibility.

That was when the Ming army took advantage of the confrontation on the front line and before the decisive battle began, they secretly divided a force to go around the rear to stop Bukhara's troops.

But... still wrong!
The Ming army only had so few people, and even the black sheep and white sheep were sent to fight guerrillas, so how could there be any troops?
Even if the troops can be divided, the number must be very limited.

Judging from these few battles, the Ming army relies on the advantage of firearms and is good at defense, but not good at offense.

Bukhara has a full 20 troops in his hands. What can they do to stop them?

Full of doubts, Barulas picked up the parchment on the ground, and then saw a line of words——

Daming sent [-] troops from Uzang to attack the East Chahatai area...

"Khan, this...how is it possible?"

Balu Lasi finally understood Absaizha's mood, and the soldiers and horses in Daming's native land moved, indicating that things were getting serious.

Although the Ming army facing Bukhara is only 5, who knows how many people are behind the [-]?
Abu Saiza's face was dark and purple, panting heavily, he said: "We are still slow, the Ming army has sent the information back to the mainland, this battle must be resolved quickly, otherwise, we will be flanked by the Ming army."

Baru Lasi scratched his head vigorously, and said, "Khan, I can't figure it out..."

Abu Saiza asked, "Can't figure out what?"

Baru Lasi expressed his own doubts: "It has only been three months since this Ming army came to Tehran, and it will take at least two months to return to Daming from here, whether it is by land or by sea. It will take at least a few months to receive the letter, and then decide to send troops, plus preparations, how could it be so fast?"

Abu Saiza pondered: "What do you mean, the Ming army has already prepared?"

"Unless this Ming army arrives in Tehran, the Ming mainland will start preparing!"

"Um……"

Abu Saiza frowned and said, "So, the Ming army has already been eyeing us?"

Baru Lasi nodded and said: "Otherwise, it is impossible to explain why the local army of Ming Dynasty was able to start operations so quickly, and at this juncture, it held back the 20 troops of Bukhara."

"Since you can guess the Ming army's plan, what do you think they will do next?"

Baru Lasi's mind is relatively simple, but he has a very sensitive sense of smell on the battlefield.

He thought for a while, and then said: "If this is the case, the Ming army must not only have troops along the way from Uzang, there may be more, but we haven't received the news yet."

"Khan, look here!"

Balurasi picked up the map on the table, picked up a feather pen, dipped it in ink, and drew on the map.

"The soldiers and horses of Uzang are obviously coming to Bukhara. If I guess correctly, there is still a main force of the Ming army that will leave the country from the Hami area and enter the territory of the Khanate head-on, as well as the island of Ceylon. , it is said that there is also a Ming army station here, and it is likely that operations have already begun."

Abu Saiza nodded first, expressing that he agreed with Balurath's conjecture, and then said: "If this is really the case, how should we deal with it?"

Baru Lasi's face was heavy, and he said: "Initiate a decisive battle immediately, no matter what the price is, Tehran must be taken."

"At the same time, send a letter to Ma Suhu, ordering him to lead an army of 20 troops who will not lose eight miles back to Bukhara. Pay special attention to the area around Hami, where the main force of the Ming army may appear. The army is going to war, hold off first, wait until we take Tehran, and then go back and counterattack Daming!"

"Tell me, how to win Tehran?"

"Khan, we have been attacking for so long, but we have repeatedly suffered setbacks. In fact, there is a problem with the strategic direction."

"Speak clearly."

"Yes!"

Baru Lasi saluted, and then said: "We have always been afraid of the firearms of the Ming army. Before each attack, we always consider what price we will pay, how many people will die, and how to minimize casualties. Therefore, the attack Every time I wanted to use tactics to win, I found that I was being calculated by the Ming army instead, and the gains outweighed the losses in the end.”

Absaizha thought for a while, and it seemed to make sense.

Because the Ming army's weapons were too fierce, I was always tied up on my side, worrying about gains and losses, and those who wanted to play tricks found that they couldn't play with others.

"What good tactics do you have?"

"Khan, with all due respect, you don't need too many tactics at all, just attack directly!"

"If you attack rashly, how many people will die..."

Abu Saiza suddenly realized that he seemed to be worrying about gains and losses again.

Balulasi said: "Khan, let me lead the team to attack, we can't wait any longer!"

Abu Saiza kept pacing up and down, and after a long time, he finally said, "Okay, then, I will follow what you said and prepare to launch a general attack!"

Balula knelt down on one knee: "Obey!"

The order began to be passed down, and the battalions of the Timurid Army entered the pre-war preparations and were busy.

At the same time, a group of messengers galloped eastward with letters written by Abu Saiza himself.

With such a big move, the Ming army's position naturally also received information.

Li Zhen gathered Sun Jixian and other major generals together, and after a joint discussion, they believed that the Timurid army could no longer hold back and was about to launch a decisive battle.

That being the case, let's fight!

As a result, the Ming army's positions were also busy.

Mortars and heavy machine guns were moved to the front line, and all the ammunition at the bottom of the press box was taken out without leaving a single bullet.

The trenches were cleared and a large number of mines were planted.

These batches of landmines were all rushed out in Tehran, limited by the level of local workshops, their texture was extremely rough, and their destructive power was average.

Everything is ready, just waiting for the decisive battle to start.
