Hassan of Zhezhi City is very willing to follow the footsteps of the Tang cavalry and visit the territory of Shanshan Persia. The main reason is that he is very poor now. If he does not want his few subordinates to escape, he must make himself rich as soon as possible.
Now, Yunchu gave him a way to get rich quickly, which was to follow him to plunder Sasanian Persia, that is, to plunder the cannibals.
If this matter had happened in the past, he would not have dared to lend Hassan a hundred courage, but it was different now. In order to gather his few subordinates, he was very willing to follow Yun Chu and become a horse thief to the big eater.
"You have to bring Compis along with you."
After Yunchu told Hassan the good news that he was going to rob the cannibal, he posed another problem to him.
"Sir, Compis is an unreliable person. He will tell the big eater our news."
Yunchu looked at Hassan who looked embarrassed and said, "Go and tell him that if he doesn't participate, I will bring the army to visit him.
At the same time, you don't have to worry about Compis being too dense. As long as we plunder a cannibal city, he will follow us to the end.
Not allowing him to participate is the real danger to us. I think Compis should cherish her own life more."
"Sir, Compis has a little son. I heard that when he was just born, he cried like a lark. All the Kang people thought it was a god descending to the world... Compis liked this little son and looked up to him.
Your own eyes are precious."
Yunchu looked at the despicable bastard in front of him thoughtfully and said softly: "Can you catch Compis's son who can imitate bird calls since he was born?"
Hassan chuckled and said, "I need your help..."
Yunchu thought about it and felt that Hassan needed a wise man at this time, so he recommended Afanti to Hassan. Considering that Afanti had no ability to protect himself, he sent Xiao Yuhua out. As for Ha
Sang's rude request for a team of brave Tang warriors was flatly rejected by Yunchu.
"Why did you send Xiao Yuhua there?"
Zhong Kui didn't say anything when Yun Chu made his decision. He asked worriedly when Hassan took Afanti and Xiao Yuhua out, who were very happy.
Yun Chu smiled and said: "Everyone needs to establish their own merits in order to become a master. Afanti and Xiao Yuhua cannot easily obtain high positions just because they are closer to us.
In the Tang Dynasty, people may value these relationships, but it is different in the Western Regions. Every high-ranking position needs to be fought for by oneself.
This is why Selema has no way to control the Serbs, and why Naha didn't say anything, but the Serbs willingly regarded her as their king.
In the face of life and death, the choices of people from the Western Regions are generally rational and sincere, which is why every person from the Western Regions hopes to become a hero.
A hero in the Tang Dynasty may just be an honor, but in the Western Regions, a hero represents power."
Zhong Kui sighed and said, "I might die."
Yunchu was unmoved and said calmly: "I almost died when I was in Qiuci City.
There is still a piece of meat missing from the tender buttocks. When you came down from the battlefield, how many feathers and arrows were picked off from the armor? How many arrows did you pick out?
Even Liang Ying has gone through a dangerous battle. If you look at him now, his tone is different when he speaks in the army.
Today, the Tang Dynasty has a vast land and few people. At this time, we, the Tang people, need to have the ability to fight one against ten to protect our homeland.
Once the aliens become the mainstream in the Tang Dynasty, believe me, when our strength becomes weaker, these aliens who were so submissive to us in the past will turn into wolves and bite our flesh and blood.
The example of the Five Husbands messing with China is there. Not many years ago, I still don’t want the women of my Tang Dynasty to be eaten as "two-legged sheep". What's more, being eaten as a "two-legged sheep" is not the best thing.
Tragically, there were too many women to eat, so they were thrown into the river and drowned alive.
There is no harm in being cruel to yourself now and making yourself stronger. At least, when the women of the Tang Dynasty become food again, we can help them avoid this tragic fate."
Zhong Kui spread his hands and said, "It's over. I can already imagine how miserable it will be after you enter the cannibal's territory this time."
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "People of the Tang Dynasty will not do anything excessive. We are an army, not beasts."
Zhong Kui sneered and said: "So, you brought people like Hassan and Compis to act as beasts?
The eighteen sculptures I gave you are all in vain, right?"
Yun Chu smiled and said: "How is that possible? In fact, you don't need to do this. As long as I enter Yumen Pass, I will automatically return to the way I was when I grew up in Ancheng."
Zhong Kui looked at Yun Chu for a long time, and finally said slowly: "You should have two souls in your body, otherwise, most people will not be able to withstand such a drastic change in mentality.
Yunchu, you should write more poems and articles. Whenever I read your poems and articles, I can always feel the seven emotions and six desires of human beings. It is strange that you do not have these noble and subtle emotions in you.
"
Yun Chu didn't want to talk to Zhong Kui any more, just like he didn't like to talk to Wen Wen about how he wrote those world-famous novels. Talking too much would always touch the depths of people's spirits.
In fact, there are some unknown things hidden deep in everyone's spirit. Everyone has it. The secrets deep in Yun Chu's heart are just a little more secret than ordinary people.
Spring in the Western Regions begins in May.
There is no spring before May, only the change of seasons.
Only when the color of the cedars on the mountains changes from dark blue to green, can spring truly arrive. Search on Baidu to see the latest chapter.
However, spring in the Western Regions is a fleeting thing, and summer comes in a blink of an eye.
The Western Region in summer is so beautiful that it doesn’t look like the human world…
Afanti pretended to be a small businessman selling children's toys and exchanged things with the shepherds on Compis's ranch.
The shepherds of the Compisi tribe liked what he brought very much, especially the baby whistle he brought. With the help of techniques, he could vividly imitate the cry of a child, which was very popular with the children of the shepherds.
He likes to use these toys to exchange with the herdsmen for unimportant livestock products such as horns and sheep horns.
When it got dark, Afanti, who had been busy for a long time, settled on the pasture and lit a small bonfire. After getting some random things to fill his stomach, he took out a reed flute and sat by the bonfire.
It started playing.
The energetic children in the tribe who were unwilling to go to bed early left their tents one after another and gathered around Afanti, leaning against the haystacks and listening to Afanti play a slightly sad tune.
There was also an iron pot on the bonfire, in which was boiled the mare's milk obtained from the shepherds.
The happy Afanti and a group of children happily dug out the mare's milk in the pot with wooden spoons to drink. They also waved their hands and stamped their feet to beat the rhythm, listening to Afanti's hoarse voice singing hymns belonging to people from the Western Regions.
As the night progressed, the children casually fell down on the hay and fell asleep. No adults came to look for them. On early summer nights, it is natural for children to lie down and sleep outside the tent.
Gradually, all the children fell asleep, and Afanti's singing gradually stopped. People vaguely saw that Afanti also fell asleep leaning on the hay pile.
This is just an ordinary and boring prairie night.
At dawn, the children were still sleeping, and among the group of children there were two young Kang women, who were also asleep and unconscious.
The Uighur man who was doing business disappeared. His fur coat was still left beside the haystack. He had already run away. If he hadn't gone up and kicked the fur coat stuffed with grass, he would have been thought to have fallen asleep wrapped in his fur coat.
.
Also missing was Compis' most beloved youngest son.
This is the wisdom that people in the Western Regions are proud of, and Afanti is indeed worthy of the title of Afanti.
In the Tang Dynasty, it was impossible for a family to give up the interests of the entire clan for a child. Just like the Han Emperor Liu Bang, after his father was captured by Xiang Yu, he claimed that he would cook soup for his father in order to hope that Liu Bang would surrender.
As a result, Liu Bang told Xiang Yu: "After the soup is cooked, please give him a cup of meat soup."
These are the wisdom that has been praised for thousands of years, and they are proof that the Han people are advanced and that the interests of the collective are greater than the interests of the individual. Of course, this statement is a beautified statement.
Compis really loved his son. After learning that the son who could learn to sing birds after birth fell into the hands of Hassan, he didn't think much about it, maybe even without any consideration, he happily agreed to Hassan's request.
A request to go together to rob the cannibal territory.
Yun Chu, Wen Wen, and Zhong Kui were very suspicious of Compis' behavior and felt that it was too rash.
However, Hassan, Afanti and Xiao Yuhua did not doubt it, and Yun Chu and others could not say anything.
After all, when the time comes, Yunchu's army will plunder like the wind, and after breaking the city, they will quickly leave and go straight to the next city. All they have to do is attract enough cannibal troops and draw them far away
go.
Let Hassan, Compis and others quickly plunder these cities, once again force the cannibal army to return for reinforcements, and finally make it easy for Wenwen to search for the treasures of Sasanian Persia in Zalanji.
Therefore, whether Compis was loyal or not had no impact on Yunchu and the others, but it had a great impact on Hassan who participated in the robbery together. If one mistake was not made, Hassan and his men would be dead.
"Do you really think Compis would put her tribe in danger for a five-year-old child?"
Wen Wen felt that this was an obvious delaying tactic, and he even thought that the possibility of Compis stabbing Hassan in the back was almost ten to ten.
"I even think that this is probably a plan jointly played by Hassan and Compis. The purpose is to hope that we will enter the territory of the Great Cannibal and cause an actual conflict between the Tang Dynasty and the Great Cannibal, so that they can reap the benefits. benefit."
Zhong Kui thought further. Neither Wen Wen nor Zhong Kui were optimistic about the current situation.
Yunchu did not accept the suggestions of these two people, and he was ready to carry out the plan as scheduled.
"It doesn't matter, just lead the troops and fight a bloody path."
Yun Chu had no way to tell Wen Rou and Zhong Kui that this kind of thing was very common in the Western Regions. The possibility of seizing someone's beloved son and threatening me to succeed in the Western Regions was too high.
To people from the Western Regions, except for a few people they care about, everyone else is just a group of tools.
