James thought that after their retreat was cut off, the Middle Eastern coalition forces trapped in Turkmenabat would launch a frenzied attack on Turkmenabat City before they ran out of ammunition and food, because only by conquering Turkmenabat City could they There will be hope of survival.

He has also made preparations to use the city of Turkmenabat to greatly consume the enemy's effective strength, and then cooperate with Sousa Warhammer's surrounding cavalry regiment to attack from the front and back to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop.

However, something unexpected happened soon.

The coalition of Middle Eastern players, whose siege equipment was almost assembled, did not launch an attack on Turkmenabat City.

As a fire broke out outside the city of Turkmenabat, with the help of the cover of the fire, the millions of Middle Eastern coalition troops stationed on the edge of the desert suddenly disappeared.

Through the reports of the Seraph scouts, we learned that after the enemy stacked all siege equipment and flammable items outside the city and set them on fire, they immediately dived into the vast sea of ​​sand without looking back.

After learning that millions of enemy troops had all entered the Karakum Desert, even James, who had experienced hundreds of battles, was stumped.

He racked his brains and couldn't figure out why the enemy would choose such a path of no return.

Because if it were him, he would definitely concentrate all his efforts on attacking the city of Turkmenabat.

Because only in this way can they see a glimmer of hope, and entering the vast sea of ​​sand is simply the same as dying.

Although Sousa Warhammer had just led a cavalry force to successfully cross the Karakum Desert, this was mainly due to the powerful reconnaissance system of the Condor Empire and the possession of powerful heavy-duty troops such as centaur warriors, and they had also explored the road beforehand.

James didn't think that the enemy also had this ability, and the enemy didn't even explore the path, so he just went in hastily. Isn't that just looking for death?

So James still can't figure it out. It's also death, so why doesn't the enemy choose the path where there is still hope?

...

In fact, this cannot be blamed on James, because the aborigines will never be able to truly guess what the players are thinking.

According to common sense, Abbas should, as James expected, lead his army to launch a series of crazy attacks on the city of Turkmenabat for the last glimmer of hope.

Because the worst outcome is death, it is better to die in battle than to die of starvation.

However, after careful consideration, Abbas resolutely chose to lead his army to break out of the desert.

One of the reasons is that most of the troops of this Middle Eastern player coalition are infantry. Only by entering the desert can they completely escape the pursuit of the Condor Empire, which has the advantage of cavalry.

Because the desert, known as the forbidden zone of death, is not a place for tourism and vacation. If you are not careful, those who come in will never be able to get out again.

Abbas did not believe that the cavalry regiment of the Condor Empire had the courage to pursue them, because after entering the depths of the desert, the enemy of the Condor Empire was no longer them, but the ever-changing and cold desert.

If the enemy really doesn’t believe in evil and chases them in,

That is exactly what Abbas wants, because compared to the coalition of Middle Eastern players under his command, the desert is obviously a greater threat to the Condor Empire cavalry army.

Therefore, Abbas felt confident when he led the army into the desert, because he could accept it calmly regardless of whether the enemy pursued him or not.

The second reason is that Abbas did not want the morale of this army to suffer a devastating blow, knowing that it would be impossible to attack the city of Turkmenabat before running out of ammunition and food.

Although the player soldiers will not really die, during the battle, their morale will be affected to a certain extent depending on the battle situation.

If this battle process is too tragic and desperate, then the morale of the player soldiers will be greatly affected, and this impact will still exist even after they are reborn.

These Middle Eastern players who participated in the first batch of gatherings under Abbas are all backbone and passionate players from various countries in the Middle East. They are very important to the entire Middle East because they will continue to participate in various wars in the future.

If they suffer an irreparable and huge blow here in Turkmenabat, many players will probably quit out of frustration.

Therefore, for the future of these players, Abbas could only choose to bear the crime of retreating in battle, and forcibly ordered these player troops to carry dry food and fresh water into the Karakum Desert.

Even if he will be scolded by players in the Middle East in the future, as long as he can maintain the players' fighting spirit, he is willing to bear all the blame.

The third reason is that Abbas would rather bury all the troops in the vast sea of ​​sand and let the yellow sand bury the bodies of the soldiers together with the weapons and equipment they carried with them than give these weapons and equipment cheaply. The Condor Empire.

Even though he knew very well that the Condor Empire did not lack the weapons and equipment they had, he was not willing to let the Condor Empire get these weapons and equipment.

As long as it's a matter of capitalizing on the enemy, it doesn't matter how big or small it is.

He has already lost the mountains of food and supplies on Mare Oasis, and he must not let the Condor Empire get this batch of weapons and equipment again, otherwise the Condor Empire can easily arm a huge army of servants here.

The fourth reason is that although Abbas has never understood how the enemy bypassed their defense line to reach the Mare Oasis, he can be sure that the enemy must have bypassed the Karakum Desert, otherwise they would not be aware of it. .

If hundreds or thousands of people crossed the Karakum Desert, then Abbas would still be able to accept it. After all, this has not happened before.

But now the Condor Empire army that has circled the Mare Oasis must be at least tens of thousands of people.

How do such a large army overcome the wind and sand in the desert and ensure that they don't get lost?

Since he couldn't figure this out, he just took this opportunity to experience it for himself.

If they can find the right path and successfully cross the Karakum Desert, then this defeat will not be without gain.

At least they found a way to cross the Karakum Desert correctly. In the future, they can also organize a surprise force to surprise the enemy's rear by crossing the Karakum Desert.

It was with these purposes in mind that Abbas resolutely led an army of one million people into the Karakum Desert from different locations.

Although the million-strong army was divided into countless independent teams the moment it entered the desert, all the teams were moving in the surprisingly same direction, which was Ashgabat on the other side of the desert.

...

On the first day, with enough food and fresh water, the teams that went deep into the desert had almost no attrition except for some fatigue.

The next day, many people began to feel acclimatized. During the day, a large number of soldiers suffered from heatstroke. At night, many soldiers never woke up after falling asleep.

On the third day, in order to successfully walk out of the desert, many teams had to abandon the sick soldiers. The remaining people scolded Abbas for his cowardice and continued to walk forward under the scorching sun.

At this time, many people can no longer tell the specific direction, and they can only keep moving forward based on their instinctive judgment.

On the fourth day, the fresh water carried by many teams began to bottom out.

Gu Ju\u003c/span\u003e Fresh water in the desert is more valuable than any gold jewelry, because it represents life.

A person can go without eating for several days, but as long as he does not drink water for a day, he will gradually lose strength.

That night, many soldiers who had not drunk water all day stayed in the yellow sand forever.

On the fifth day, there were only sporadic teams continuing to move forward in the entire Karakum Desert.

These teams were relatively lucky. They encountered oasis or desert riverbed on the way forward and successfully replenished water sources there.

However, temporary luck was not enough to ensure that these teams made it out of the desert alive.

In the next few days, many teams once again stayed in the desert permanently due to lack of water.

In the end, only a few hundred people successfully walked out of the Karakum Desert, which is more than 400 kilometers wide, in the desert withdrawal operation initiated by Abbas.

Millions of troops entered the desert, but in the end less than a thousand people came out alive. This was definitely a failed withdrawal operation that could not be more complete.

Because in addition to successfully diverting the players' anger to himself, Abbas was unable to find out the desert marching route that he wanted to explore most.

During the march, they not only failed to find any clues of the Condor Empire's army marching in the desert, they even failed to remember clearly where there were oases and where there were desert riverbeds.

As a result, the mysterious Karakum Desert is still a restricted area of ​​life for them, but for the Condor Empire, it is a mysterious zone where they can march.

This result not only disappointed Abbas, but also made Ibn Haidar extremely angry when he learned the whole story.

When Ibn Haidar learned that the Mare Oasis, which stored grain and grass supplies, had fallen, and that the millions of Middle Eastern player coalition forces that marched to Turkmenabat were all buried in the sea of ​​​​sand, the Centaur cavalry of the Condor Empire actually killed Ashgabat. After leaving Germany City, he completely lost his composure.

After smashing a room containing various precious porcelain to pieces, Ibn Haidar walked out of the room with red eyes.

...

"Your Excellency Ibn, we trusted you and put all the troops and strategic materials in your hands, but what did you give us in return?

It had only been a few days, and not only the troops that had finally been assembled were lost, but even the Mare Oasis where food and supplies were stored was lost.

If I can barely tolerate this, then letting the Centaur army of the Condor Empire kill Ashgabat is something I absolutely cannot tolerate.

Ashgabat is our capital and our last line of defense.

Now that the enemies have all come here, what difference does it make our Turkmenistan to destroy our country?

Sir Ibn, that Abbas is your man, and you must take full responsibility for this matter.

It's not that I don't want to consider your difficulties, but that your vision is really bad!

How stupid do you have to be to lead millions of troops into the Karakum Desert!

Our domestic adventure-loving players don’t dare to go deep, but he was not familiar with the environment at all, so he led an army of millions and rashly got in.

This kind of person is simply brainless. "

When player leaders from various countries in the Middle East and Central Asia gathered together, Turkmenistan's Guli Mukhatov took the lead in starting the complaint mode.

It’s no wonder that Guli Mukhatov was so gaffe-like, because he was under greater pressure than others.

There is no need to mention those whose countries have been destroyed. At this time, they have already lost all hope.

But Guli Mukhatov, who was on the verge of annihilation, lived every day like a year.

Because the capital of Turkmenistan is still in their hands at this time, they have not yet been destroyed.

However, they are not far from annihilation, because they have lost more than half of their territory.

The entire useful land of Turkmenistan is divided into two parts.

Part of it is the oasis plains located in the Amu Darya River Basin, and part of it is the narrow valley oasis in the south of the Karakum Desert.

As for the largest Karakum Desert, it is an uninhabited land. As long as the narrow valley plains on both sides of the south are occupied, the Karakum Desert sandwiched in the middle will naturally be occupied.

Now the Condor Empire has not only successfully occupied all areas in the Amu Darya River Basin, but also occupied the Marais Oasis that connects the two valley plains in the north and south. The Centaur cavalry has even reached the gates of Ashgabat.

After the Middle Eastern player coalition led by Abbas was completely destroyed, there were only less than 50,000 defenders left in the entire Ashgabat area.

The 1.2 million troops cannot withstand the attack of the Condor Empire, and the 50,000 defenders are not enough to put a gap in the teeth of the Condor Empire.

As long as the main force of the Condor Empire arrives, Turkmenistan will immediately perish with the fall of Ashgabat.

Seeing that he was about to become a subjugated king, how could Guli Muhatov not be anxious?

What's even more terrible is that at this moment, Guli Mukhatov himself is not in the capital Ashgabat.

He and the entire elite army of Turkmenistan were all trapped in the territory of the Kazakh Khanate.

As the king of a country and the leader of a country's players, it is absolutely a huge irony to see that the country is about to perish, but he himself cannot return.

Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, the two countries isolated on the north bank of the Amu Darya River, are finished, and it is their turn next to Turkmenistan.

The only way to save Turkmenistan now is to let their neighbor Persia send all its troops to the Ashgabat area.

Only in this way can they still have a glimmer of hope.

The entire Persian army listened to Ibn Haidar alone, so Guli Muhatov didn't care so much. He directly passed all responsibilities to Ibn Haidar and wanted to This is used to force the other party to take on this responsibility.
