"If Your Excellency Hussein has any request, it doesn't matter." Fang Jun politely stated.

Hussein quickly stood up and said: "The voyage of merchant ships is full of all kinds of risks, and these are also expected by the contemptible, if only the loss of merchant ships and goods is acceptable. But...... On the merchant ships that were plundered by pirates, there were also despicable nephews...... Before leaving, my contemptible brother asked me to take my nephew to the powerful and civilized Tang Kingdom to increase my knowledge, but the contemptible man made him fall into the hands of pirates, and after returning to Medina, he could not explain to his brother. Therefore, the contemptible begged the Marquis, can you send a warship to rescue the contemptible nephew? ”

It turned out that he was robbed by pirates and ran here to ask for troops......

Fang Jun groaned.

The role of the sailor is to protect merchant ships, guard the waterways, and protect the normal conduct of maritime trade. If a merchant ship is plundered by pirates, the sailor naturally wants to go to the rescue, and this is an unshirkable responsibility.

But the premise is that the caravan that was robbed had to be merchants from the Tang Dynasty......

With the current contempt of the people of the Tang Dynasty for crooked nuts, even if Fang Jun wants to send troops, it will inevitably cause criticism.

Why did the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty go to fight for the life and death of the Hu people?

Hu people are like leeks, they can make another stubble after cutting one stubble, there will never be a shortage of Lakers who come to Datang to trade, what does it matter if a few die?

Seeing Fang Jun's hesitation, Hussein was not a fool, and hurriedly said: "Allah, if Your Excellency the Marquis can rescue your contemptible nephew, all the goods on the plundered merchant ships will be presented to Your Excellency as a thank you." Unbeknownst to you, those merchant ships are full of precious stones and spices, and they are priceless! ”

Fang Jun suddenly sneered.

What about priceless value?

Why is it a fool to be a fool? Take the looted goods as a thank you gift, this calculation is really good! This bearded man has a lot of eyes, which really doesn't match his rugged appearance......

Seeing Fang Jun sneering, Hu Saiin was obviously embarrassed, gritted his teeth, and said, "In addition, all the goods on these remaining merchant ships are also given to Your Excellency!" As long as Your Excellency can give us food and water for our return voyage at that time, please Your Excellency Marquis must agree! ”

Pei Xingjian, who had just gone out for a spin, had already come back and stood silent in the lobby. At this time, after listening to Hussein's words, he suddenly became anxious, and kept giving Fang Jun a look!

He went out just now but he understood, this caravan of the Great Food Country has a total of more than fifty merchant ships, half of which have been looted by pirates, and there are still more than thirty left! The merchants of the Great Food Country were the richest, and the goods they traded were mostly spices and precious stones, and they were the most popular among the nobles and families of the Tang Dynasty.

If all these things are given to the sailors, not to mention exterminating the pirates, it is cost-effective to conquer a small country!

He kept making his eyes, but who knew that Fang Jun just glanced at him, and then ignored him, but narrowed his eyes......

Fang Jun felt that Hussein was a little weird.

A nephew who took out all the cargo on the merchant ship in order to get the sailor to rescue him?

With Fang Jun's understanding of the Arabs, this is a bit strange and unreasonable.

The greatest merchants in the ancient world were Arab merchants, who were clothed in the garb of Allah and who recited the Qur'an in their mouths, but who were the purest merchants who calculated profits to the bones, especially the Jewish merchants!

What is family affection in front of their eyes?

How much is a pound?

What is especially important is that Hussein came to the Tang Dynasty to trade when he was expanding in Arabia, and he must have shouldered an extremely important mission, whether it was to earn military expenses, or if there were any ulterior secrets, how could he give up all of them for the sake of a nephew?

You must know that even if the navigation technology of Arab merchant ships is extremely developed, it takes two years to sail back and forth by relying on the monsoon alone!

Gave up this opportunity and did it all over again two years later?

Absolutely unconscionable.

And this bearded man has never drunk tea, obviously he has not been to Datang in recent years, but he can speak fluent Chinese, and he is proficient in some difficult words, so he has obviously worked hard.

Don't...... Among the merchant ships that have been plundered by pirates, what are the great treasures?

Or something important?

Or...... What kind of nephew is he talking about?

Fang Jun's mind spun rapidly, and he said in embarrassment: "This ...... Hussein, my friend, it's not that Ben Hou is unwilling to rescue your nephew for you, Ben Hou admires you very much, the upright messenger of Allah, but you must know that the sailors controlled by Ben Hou are the private army of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Empire, not the army that protects the waterway, so ...... Ben Hou is very embarrassed by your request. ”

Hussein is not a particularly smart person, but he also heard the meaning of Fang Jun's words. He only said that he was embarrassed, but he did not categorically refuse, and there must be room for things to turn around, is his reward not satisfying the other party?

Hussein was very unhappy.

This young Tang aristocrat is really too greedy!

The fleet on this trip carried a large number of gems and spices, and originally wanted to come to Datang to trade one thing, but the pirate robbery happened suddenly, and he had no choice but to give these gems and spices to Fang Jun in exchange for him to send troops to rescue his nephew, even if it was the deal proposed by the emperor who had to meet the Tang Dynasty, he had to give up painfully.

But even so, is this marquis still not satisfied?

Hussein was in a hurry, he was not reluctant to be rich, no amount of wealth could buy his nephew's life! If his nephew dies at the hands of pirates, he has to be buried in the east, far from Allah Allah......

Hussein hardly dared to imagine his end.

But apart from these merchant ships and goods, I really have nothing!

Hussein pleaded eagerly; "Your Excellency, Honorable Marquis, I beg you to save my nephew with merciful faith! Now there is no more wealth to be repaid, but when they return to Medina, countless precious stones and spices will be loaded into ships and sent to the far East in return, and you will reap the gratitude and respect of all Muslims! ”

Fang Jun smiled, do you care so much about your nephew?

That's good!

He smiled and said, "Dear Hussein, Benhou has always been a warm and sincere person towards his friends, so Benhou is willing to risk being blamed by His Majesty the Emperor and send troops to rescue your nephew." ”

Hussein was so overjoyed that he was so grateful that he almost cried: "You are truly the merciful person I have ever seen, and Allah will bless you!" ”

I don't need your Allah to bless me, just give me some good......

Fang Jun pouted without looking for confusion: "But you know, although Ben Hou is the supreme commander of the Water Division, he has the right to order his subordinates to fight for a Hu person and even lose their lives." Therefore, in addition to all the gems and spices you have spoken, Benhou wants one more thing. ”

Hussein automatically filtered the first half of Fang Jun's words, and said that it was shameless enough for you to want benefits so obviously, and he said with some surprise: "What else do you want?" ”

Fang Jun said: "Sea chart! ”

"Charts?" Hussein's face was suddenly entangled.

Fang Jun nodded and said: "That's right, it's the nautical chart of your caravan from the original Tang Dynasty in Arabia, as long as this thing is given to me, Ben Hou will immediately send troops, otherwise, interview!" ”

Hussein was so angry that his face turned red!

Isn't this a naked robbery? It's even more shameless than pirates!

Why were Arab merchants able to trade far away in the Tang Dynasty, while Tang merchants rarely traveled to the Arab world?

It's because the Arabs have in their hands the charts that connect the seas of the East and the West!

However, this chart was the result of the lives of countless Arab ancestors, and I wonder how many Allah servants of Allah were swallowed up by the storms and waves, how many sailing ships were caught in the reef and sunk in the sea that was not far from the land, and how many of Muhammad's followers died at the hands of pirates......

Such a chart, regarded as the most precious treasure of the Arabs, was enjoyed only by the noblest families, and with its guidance, they came to the Far East to trade in great profits, bringing precious stones and spices from the Arab world, and transporting precious silk and porcelain back to Arabia!

All the Arab warriors regarded it as a treasure, and even if the last man in the fleet died, they would destroy the charts on board before they died!

How can such a treasure be given away?

If the Tang people get the charts, they will be able to cross the distant ocean and reach the Arab world! You know, simply comparing shipbuilding technology, the Tang people are more proficient than the Arabs!

Hussein immediately refused: "No! The chart is a gift from Allah to His followers, and I will never put it in the hands of infidels. ”

Fang Jun was not surprised by his refusal, after all, the nautical charts represent huge benefits, once they are obtained by the Tang people, the monopoly of Arab merchants will disappear, and the Tang people can directly go to the Arab trade, fine porcelain and gorgeous silk, can sweep away most of the wealth of the Arab world!

He shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Then Benhou can't help it." ”

Hussein's face turned red with anger, but his heart was full of anxiety.

The charts are the treasure of the Arabs, but their nephew is the treasure of their brother, the treasure of the entire Arab world, and will be the successor of the caliphate in the future, who will carry the glory of Muhammad and lead the whole Arab world to conquer all the infidels......

His heart was suddenly shocked, why did this marquis open his mouth and ask him for the precious chart?

Don't...... He already knew the true identity of his nephew, and he expected that he would abandon the charts to save his nephew's life?

How is this possible! Even in Medina, among the very few people who knew about this trip to the East, they didn't know that they had actually taken the name of their nephew, and they didn't know that they had existed at all! How could Fang Jun, who was far away in the East, know?

But do you really want to keep the charts and give up your nephew?

Hussein's expression changed, he was shocked, and his heart was entangled, and he couldn't make a choice.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Xue Rengui's big voice sounded: "The last general, Xue Rengui, ask to see the chief manager!" ”

Fang Jun didn't know what Xue Rengui was doing, but he didn't avoid Hussein and the others, and said, "Come in!" ”

Xue Rengui strode into the lobby.

Well, I still have a ...... in my hand Person?

Fang Jun was dumbfounded and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Pei Xingjian's eyes were sharp, looking at the person who was being carried by Xue Rengui like a chicken, he took a closer look, and exclaimed: "Guo to be sealed? What are you two doing here? ”

Xue Rengui was still complacent and angry, and as soon as he let go of his hand, he threw Guo Beifeng on the ground, causing Guo Beifeng to scream, but his bones were falling apart, and he couldn't stand up......

Xue Rengui's face was as pale as iron, he knelt on one knee, and said loudly: "Chief Administrator Qiqi, the last general will violate military discipline and beat his colleagues, and he is willing to lead the army law and dispose of it alone!" ”

Guo Beifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he couldn't care about being embarrassed at the moment, he rolled on the ground, he couldn't get up and give a salute, and he felt a sharp pain when he moved, and he didn't know how many bones were broken, and his internal organs were displaced a little, and he cried with tears in his eyes: "The chief manager is the master for me......"

Fang Jun's eyebrows furrowed, and he glanced at Guo Zhifeng in disgust.

A dignified seven-foot man, it's nothing to be beaten, but such a spineless wailing and screaming is really a loss of a man's face!

He glanced at Guo Zhifeng and said coldly: "If you have anything to say, stand up and say it!" My Tang Dynasty soldiers, can die standing and not live on their knees, what kind of system is this kind of grief and crying? It's rubbish! ”

Guo Beifeng has this grievance in his heart, don't you want to stand up with me?

I can't stand up!

Xue Rengui was too ruthless, and his bones were broken!

can only say sadly: "Boss, subordinates...... Subordinate...... I can't stand up! Xue Rengui was brutal and rebellious, brutal to his colleagues, violating military discipline, and asked the chief administrator to show his head to the public as an example......"

He didn't mention that it was because of his lack of morality that he was beaten this time, but bit Xue Rengui to death and beat his colleagues to violate military discipline. After he thought that he was Guo Xiaoke's son, and Xue Rengui was just Zhang Shigui's old man, how could he be heavier than Xue Rengui in comparison, Fang Jun should sell his own face, right?

But he didn't know Fang Jun's psychology at all.

That's right, Guo Xiaoke's son is naturally heavier than Zhang Shigui's deceased, but if there is military discipline there, how can Fang Jun protect you because you are Guo Xiaoke's son? At least we should discuss the truth of the matter and the merits! How can you blame Xue Rengui for your crying? If this is the case, there are many children of the family among the sailors, will anyone in the future have a conflict with others, and pull it out to discuss the family background?

In this way, where is the military law and military discipline!

What's more important is that you have to be a man with your own weight!

What kind of thing are you Guo Zhifeng in Fang Jun's eyes?

What kind of existence is Xue Rengui in Fang Jun's eyes?

That is the world-famous general who fixed the Tianshan Mountain with three arrows and destroyed Goryeo in white robes!

As long as you stand with Xue Rengui, you Guo Beifeng will become a passerby in Fang Jun's heart......
