Chapter 3 The Wooden Deer City of Khorasan

When Stay Ranmian and others left, Sun Xiurong's expression was very complicated.

In the countries of the Mesopotamia (Amu River, Sir River), there were many rulers coming and going in history, but only a few people achieved relatively thorough "conquest".

One of them is Genghis Khan. Of course, the methods he used were the most cruel. He used the massacre to destroy his nobles, young and strong, and to let the descendants of the Golden Family take on their kingdom. He was naked and took over. Not to mention, this approach really worked. The royal families of the Bukhara Khanate, Kazakh Khanate, Shiva Khanate, and Crimean Khanate all came from the Golden Family, and even the Mughal Empire was the same.

As for the royal family and noble family that had long disappeared in the long river of history. In Kazakhstan, there are still people who say "Are you black bones or white bones?", which means whether you are descendants of the Golden Family, no one said, "Are you descendants of the Wusun royal family or the Kangju royal family?"

There is another method, which is to change it from the perspective of faith. Even the famous Grand Food Education did not do this, but a certain old empire in the 20th century did it. If the empire did not collapse, people in the Hezhong area would call each other comrades when they saw it.

Of course, it is naturally not enough to transform faith alone. You also need to have strong resource planning, allocation, and transformation capabilities. This is something that Grand Food Education cannot do.

In fact, there were not many Dingkou in the Zhaowu countries in the Tang Dynasty. Several larger countries, Shi Kingdom, Bakhanna, Kang Kingdom, An Kingdom, and Shi Kingdom, had less than one million Dingkou and less than one hundred thousand winning soldiers. They also acted independently and attacked each other. Whether it was the Tang Dynasty or the Dashi, it was easy to defeat each other.

This is how they started with the Han Dynasty, otherwise there would have been no wonder that Ban Chao could mobilize tens of thousands of troops to attack another country with just a few dozen people.

Back to the present, Zhaowu and other countries wander calmly between the Great Food, the Tang Dynasty and the Beiting, which naturally adds some variables. If one side is wrong, they can surrender to the other side. Unlike the original history, there is another identity that is really suspicious. The Beiting Protectorate with the head of the Tang Dynasty sheep is even more relaxed and freehand.

Of course, there is still another situation at present.

Whether it was the Tang Dynasty or the Dashi, neither of them had ever fought, nor did they know how powerful the other party was, or they didn't take the other party seriously. If there was not a Beiting standing beside them, either party would have no worries about the countries in Hezhong.

After all, this is a city-state, not a grassland, and it is still at the tail of the era of the law of the jungle. There is no burden to kill. If you don’t kill, you will be looked down upon by others, but the city-state will be different.

Since it is a city-state, there is civilization, a civilization that is very different from the grassland. Stop killing will not last long.

How can we achieve both a tragic killing and a civilized side?

......

A few days later, a news spread widely in the Hezhong area.

"The Beiting people in the north are preparing to intervene in the war in the river, and the army is about to move south."

This news was spread through the mouths of the Zoroastrians. It spread throughout the Hezhong area in just a few days, and even Anguo, who was in a state of war, did not escape.

Mulu City, the Governor of the Black-clothed Great Food Khurasan, or the Governor of the East.

Thirty-two-year-old Bingbo Silin listened peacefully as someone was chattering.

"Governor General, in order to stabilize the Hezhong area, Assad did not force the people there to believe in the Great Food Church. It was just to let the nobles believe in it. Those nobles were all cunning people who had been passed down for thousands of years. When the Chinese officials and Imam were here, they naturally showed a pious appearance, and they worshiped more than us."

(Assad, Governor of Khorasan in the era of white food and food)

"As soon as our officials retreated, they restored their belief in Zoroastrianism, and some even dared to kill the respected Imams. Now that our country is newly established, they are in a turmoil. With a small intention, they took advantage of this opportunity to slaughter all their nobles, and then granted outstanding generals the new lords, levied heavy taxes on farmers, craftsmen, and merchants."

"In this way, naturally, a large number of households have become believers of Allah..."

This man is tall and thin, black, with a sharp top on his thick headscarf, with a few bright feathers inserted on one side, and the gems inlaid in the middle are carved into the shape of stars and moons.

His original name was Zhisiwujie, a descendant of the Western Turkic Blue Noble. His family moved to Persia early in the morning. They originally followed Nasr. After Nasr died, he surrendered to Bingbosilin. Nasr had a strong Turkic spirit cavalry under him. Now he is naturally under the jurisdiction of Zhisiwujie, the current name Mahamo.

Bingbo Silin was a Persian and was favored by Abbas during his pilgrimage in Mecca. His idea of ​​downplaying tribal conflicts and strengthening religious identity was quite Abbasi's recognition, so he came to Khorasan to preach under the name of the Great Imam.

After he became the governor of Khurasan, he followed this idea. Not only that, he also clamped together the fierce Donghurasan people and Turks, and seemed to have signs of turning them into hereditary soldiers, just as he allowed farmers, craftsmen and merchants to stay in their own positions forever.

What Zhihu Wujie said just now is exactly what he is currently preparing to test, that is, to grant some outstanding generals the title of lords in the garrison area and collect taxes in the jurisdiction in the name of the governor and the city lord. Except for those who are handed over to the Governor's Office, the rest is used on himself and the army.

This led to the prototype of the later Saman Dynasty and Kara Khanate. Such an approach eventually led to the hereditary Turkic soldiers standing out, thus creating one Khanate after another. This is a later story, and I will not repeat it again.

After hearing what Zhisiwujie said, Bingbo Silin couldn't help but frown. As a believer in the Great Food Church who seemed extremely devout, Bingbo Silin was not so convinced on the surface. After returning to Khorasan from Mecca, he actually integrated some of the Persian traditions, Zoroastrianism, Manichaeism, and Nestorianism into the Great Food Church, realizing the "Khorasanization" of the Great Food Church.

Otherwise, when he raised his arms, the entire Khorasan people would rise up to respond to him. For a place that has believed in Zoroastrian for thousands of years, it would be hard to believe that they would do this if they were the same as before as the missionary method of hard bridges and hard horses.

But in any case, in his opinion, faith is an extremely sacred thing, and it is best to believe it voluntarily. If it is forced to believe, no matter what method it is, it seems to be a blasphemy to religion. Therefore, when he saw Zhisiwujie saying that without any shame, he couldn't help but frown.

He was also cursing in his heart, "It turns out that he is a bitch from a slave. If you say this, wouldn't you feel as shameless as those Zoroastrians?"

But at the moment he did not blame him too much. He also needed the powerful Turks to serve him. In his other thoughts, "Although these people were all slaves, and were formerly believers of polytheism, and barely became believers of Allah, under the leadership of Imam and under the guidance of Allah, he did what he should do, and that was the people of Allah."

In Zhishiwujie's mind, if he could be named the governor of a certain place like Nasr, even the governor/city lord of a city, then he would be similar to Jie Lifa and Tutun of the Western Turkic Khanate, and over time he would become a royal family in a certain place.

After Nasr's death, Bingbo Silin had no intention of letting Zhisiwujie become the lord of the sepho city. Why didn't Zhisiwujie scratch his head in a hurry?

Next to Zhisiwujie, there was another person who was about the early twenties, but he was dressed in a typical Khorasan. Compared with Zhisiwujie, his expression was much more stable.

When Bingbo Silin saw it, he secretly praised it.

"I am worthy of being the son of my loyal believer Kahtaba. Every word and action is like being able to receive guidance from Allah at any time. Whether in the face of danger or doubt, I can be as stable as a rock."

This man is called Ibn Hassan. He is only in his early twenties this year, but he is already the governor of Tochar and is the two most trusted people in Bingbo Silin. Legend has it that they can die at any time for Bingbo Silin. The other man is naturally Ziad, who replaced Nasr as Governor of Korasan.

"Hasan, tell me what you think"

"Yes, respected Imam", unlike Zhishiwujie, Hasan, who is the governor of Tochar in the region, still remained calm. "If there was no Beiting people's intervention, I would agree with Mahamo's statement, first occupy the land, and then use heavy taxation and other means to subtly move it. However, the Beiting army stopped in a flash and could not do that."

"In the countries in the river, except for the nobles, most of them are slaves, and a few civilians are descendants of the nobles who have committed sins. What do you believe in and how to believe is insignificant to them. As long as you get rid of those nobles and reward the nobles' property, women, and children to the soldiers, I can firmly control those places with great food."

Hassan naturally knew that the Governor's purpose of recalling him from Tocharo to Mulu City. He would definitely not let the Governor of a large area travel thousands of miles just to ask a question. He probably had a certain plan.

Sure enough, I saw Bingbo Silin pondering for a long time before finally sighing to the sky.

"Allah is above. If killing is for better faith, follow, and sacrifice, then why not do it? Hassan, you are the son of my most proud disciple Kahtaba, who has completely inherited his will and character. I have heard Nasr say that the Broken Ye Army is very powerful. I have prepared 30,000 elite troops for you and are heading towards Nasepo City."

"After you arrive at that Sebo, you will be the commander of this army. Remember, let's forget about the so-called Shi Kingdom, Kang Kingdom, Shi Kingdom..., forget about it, Shi Kingdom will not consider it for the time being. Shi Kingdom borders Beiting, and it will be completely troublesome. As for the country of Bahan, the same is true for the Tang Dynasty. Although Gao Xianzhi, the general of the Tang Dynasty, is extremely cruel, he is the king of mountain warfare. Before we can stabilize the river, it is better not to provoke him."

Looking at Zhishiwujie again, "Dear Mahamo, please follow Hassan. As his assistant, command the cavalry. If you succeed, you will be the lord of Qishi City."

Zhi Siwujie's eyes lit up, and he quickly bent down and bowed and said, "Thank you, I will do my best to assist Lord Hassan, and go through fire and water without hesitation!"
