The heart of the Persian Empire, Ctesiphon, the ruler of the Empire, Khavad II is gathering his civil and military ministers to discuss how to launch a new offensive against the Anatolian regions controlled by the Eastern Romans, "I have decided that Anatolia must be re-attacked this year, so that the aging Heraclius knows that I, Khavad, am the terminator of their Romans......"
Khavard II said, holding the scepter that symbolized the Persian kingship."
Dear Shahansha, we are willing to let the light of Ahura shine on Constantinople under your leadership!!"
The civil and military ministers, led by the Imperial Prime Minister Rustam, all saluted Kavad II respectfully and spoke loudly.Just as their monarch was taking the oath, a sergeant ran into the main hall with a sigh, "Honorable Shahansha, General Amre's battle report is here......."
Kavad II pouted and stood up, "Present it, I'll take a look!"
”The sergeant handed a parchment scroll to Kavad II's attendants, who in turn presented it to Kavad II, and when he opened it, he was quickly overjoyed, "Amr did not disappoint me....... hahaha, Egypt and Cyrenaica have all fallen into my hands, and the great Ahuramazda has finally shone again in Egypt......."
Kawad II held his scepter aloft, "Ahuramazda, your light will surely shine on the whole world!"
”Alum was a confidant of whom Qawad promoted from his own guard, and after recapturing Damascus and Jerusalem, Qarvad II sent Amr to Amr.
Calaniga led 30,000 cavalry into Egypt through the Sinai Peninsula, and Amr came up to surround and capture the Egyptian city of Neo-Babylon, and then attacked Alexandria.The governor of the Eastern Roman Empire, Eubaris, was extremely shocked by the sharpness of the Persians' troops and the rapid defeat of his own side, and when he reprimanded his generals, he did not expect to provoke internal strife, which led to internal divisions, and in desperation, Eubaris had no choice but to abandon Alexandria.The fall of Alexandria ended Roman rule in Egypt and expanded the Persian offensive in North Africa.After taking Egypt, Amr went all the way west and conquered the region of Cyrenaica.Although the Eastern Roman navy briefly reoccupied Alexandria, the Eastern Roman navy had to abandon Alexandria again after Amr's return from Cyrenaica.According to Amr's military newspaper, the local Copts in Egypt welcomed the Persians like the Unitarians in Jerusalem.And he would continue to attack Carthage, the provincial capital of the Roman province of Aphilica.Kavard II was overjoyed, as the fall of the rich provinces of Egypt and Cyrenaica deprived Constantinople of a valuable supply of wheat, which would lead to a shortage of food and a weak army in the Eastern Roman Empire, so that he would be more confident about attacking Anatolia.After learning that they had taken the granary of the Romans, Rustam and them were also happy, and just when their royal ministers were too happy for their victory, another sergeant broke in in a panic, "Oh no, no, something big happened to Khorasan........"
Flustered, what do you look like......
Rustam said dissatisfied, "what's the matter, what do you say?"
”As soon as the sergeant saw that it was the prime minister of the empire, he said, "Prime minister, the big thing is not good, the old general Bayezet defeated the Wukan steppe, the old general and Master Kumaji were all captured, and the whole of Khorasan fell into the hands of the Jiankun people....... the vanguard of the Jiankun army has now been killed in the southern city of Sam.....""
What, what, what do you say?"
The news almost made Rustam's jaw drop, "Amir, are you telling the truth?"
Shahansha has strengthened a thousand-strong army of undead for him......"
Rustam said in surprise."
Amir, bring me the military report......
"Although Kavad II was the generation of heroes who could pull Sassanid Persia out of the quagmire, he was shocked when he heard the news of Bayezet's defeat, but he was well versed in the emperor's mind, and suppressed all the surprise in his heart."
Yes, honorable Shahan Shah......
The soldier named Amir respectfully presented the military report, and when Kavard II opened it, he, who had always been steady, was greatly surprised, and then became furious, "Kumaji, this gentleman, really, really ......"
It turned out that Shah, the commander of the thousand-man army of the undead army he sent to support Bayezet, fortunately fled from Ukan back to Semnan in Persia, and he wrote the battle of Ukan in detail into a military newspaper, which focused on the contradictions between Bayezet and Kumaji, The battle-hardened Shah made it clear that the Cenkun were more difficult to deal with than the Eastern Romans, and that they were not barbarians like the Turks, but a branch of the Seris!"
Hey, the Jiankun people are actually a branch of the Seris?
No wonder they're so powerful......."
Kavard II gasped, and then he called his foreign minister, "Barash, you go to Broken Leaves, go and meet that Khan.....""
So, honorable Shahansha, what's your bottom line?"
Barash is not stupid, he has to ask the bottom line and then go to Broken Leaves, otherwise if he signs a treaty, if Kavard II does not admit it, then he will have to commit suicide to apologize."
The bottom line?
Barosh, you are going to Broken Leaves, and besides trying to redeem Bayesat Kumaji and them, you are trying to redeem Khorasan ......" said Kavad II."
Then what if the other party doesn't let Khorasan go?"
Baros continued."
At the very least, we must ensure the integrity of the province of Semna, and not allow the Cenkun people to advance further, once Semnan is occupied by them, then they will open the ......passage to Rai (one of the holy places of Zoroastrianism)," said Kavard II, "Barash, if the Gynyokun are willing to return Khorasan, they can pay 20,000 pounds of gold, if they are not, you can dispose of up to 5,000 pounds of gold......"
The Persians and the Eastern Romans fought all year round, and in their eyes, the territory was not an integral part, but could be ceded, It can be purchased, which is not the same as Huaxia."
Barosh, no matter what you do, I must stabilize the Tenkun people, preferably breaking their covenant with the Romans....."
"As long as the Cenkun people are stabilized, after we have eaten the Romans, we can return to the east and destroy the Tenkun people, and then whether it is Tenkun, Tianzhu, or Cyris, they will all be bathed in the light of Ahura Mazda......
"At the same time that Khavard II was preparing to send an envoy to Broken Leaf to sue for peace, on the side of Constantinople, the already aged Heraclius also received the news that his allies in the east had defeated the Persians," Sergio.
Prushac, our ally, saved our lives at a critical time......." he said to Sergio, who had sent Broken Leaves.
Prussia said, "I want you and Heraclonas to go to Broken Leaf again to consolidate our covenant, Kavad has suffered a great loss in the east, and will definitely send someone to sue for peace, and if they reach a peace, then the Persians will shift their main energy to us, then we will be in danger..... so your task is to destroy their peace no matter what, and encourage the Tenkun to continue attacking Persia......"
Don't look at Heraclius's old age, He was also emaciated by Martina and his sons, but his strategic vision was still sharp, and he clearly saw the crisis, and he could not let Lelu and Kavard II come to a collegial agreement, if that case, Constantinople would have a hard time.Heraclius decisively sent his second son, Heracronas, and Sergio, who was familiar with Broken Leaves.
Together Prussia left Constantinople and went to Armenia to envoy Cenkun.But what Heraclius didn't expect was that Kavard II moved far faster than he imagined, and he had already sent his foreign minister Baros to Broken Leaves to step up his offensive against the Anatolian region, apparently preparing for the East not to light up and the West to light."
Honorable Great Khan, on behalf of the human messenger of Ahuramazda, the king of kings, Persian Shahan Shah, I pay you the highest respect....."
After seeing Li Lu, Barosh bowed very respectfully."
Lone, the Great King of the Tang Empire, the Great Khan of the Jiankun Kingdom, and the Daomen Daozi, also say hello to your monarch......
Li Lu said with a smile, "I don't know why you came?"
”"Dear Great Khan, I am here for the friendship of the two countries......
I brought the sincerity of our Shahan Shah, and I hope that the Great Khan will not refuse....."

Baros said."
Oh?
I wonder what your sincerity is?
”Li Lu said with a smile, "You started the war, and now you are talking about sincerity, Barosh, don't you think it's ridiculous?"
”"Great Khan, please listen to my explanation......
The previous misunderstanding was all caused by the Sogdians' provocation.......
"Baros is worthy of being a diplomatist, and he is very thick-skinned."
For the Persians' peace, Li Lu had long expected it, and his own think tank Xue Lu had already analyzed with him, the Persians' strategic focus was in the west, as long as the Persians were hurt, the Persians would inevitably choose to sue for peace, and then they could squeeze the rich Persians and gnaw a large piece of meat from them; It can also deter the Persians well, so that they dare not move when Li Lu marches into Tianzhu, and at the same time renew the life of the Eastern Roman Empire, let the Persians re-invest their stop loss in Constantinople, so as to achieve the goal of killing three birds with one stone."
Okay, since you are willing to negotiate peace, then let's talk about it......"
Li Lu said with a smile, "Prime minister, you are in charge of this matter.....
Li Lu handed over the errand of the peace talks to Xue Lu, and Xue Lu came out and said, "Please rest assured, the old man will definitely handle this matter for you!"
