Chapter 421: Sistan Province

Faraday also secretly looked below, secretly surprised by Li Chengji's young age. It was also he who always thought that Li Chengji should be a strong man with a rough face and developed limbs. In the impression of the tribesmen, only such a person is suitable to become a patriarch.

This is a long-standing habit of the nomadic tribes who fight with the sky and the earth. For only such a person can intimidate the people of the tribe. and deter other tribes, making them powerful.

So when he saw Li Chengji's true face, he still couldn't believe it.

"Hehe... It seems that the rumors are true! Farazo, the great imam of Gizzini, chuckled wryly. This time, Li Gao went north, bringing not only the surrender of the army and the general. There are also various influential religious elders, descendants of the royal family of the Gur Kingdom, and some local heads of families and tribes.

First, it was to make them show their surrender to Lee Seungji, and second, to prevent them from causing chaos in the local area. Originally, Li Wei still wanted to send someone to escort them to Malu, but since Li Chengji came, he happened to meet him.

As the great imam of the city of Gizzini, Farasso was naturally among the entourage. Along the way, he also had the privilege of witnessing the great strength of the cathars. Like the places you pass through, there are tribes along the way to show your submission.

Although no force was used! But the soldiers who surrendered without a fight can show the strength of the cathar army even more.

"It's not all true. At least, the arms of the lord of the kingdom are not as thick as the belly of a sheep. Hetosha listened thoughtfully.

In fact, there are not thousands, but hundreds of rumors about Li Chengji. Some of them are closer to the facts. For example, Li Chengji is not very old, and he has not yet reached Double Ten. There are also more outrageous ones, saying that Li Chengji looks fierce and vicious, and looks like a mountain. The arms are the thickness of a fat sheep's belly.

When I saw it today, I found that Li Chengji was not only not fierce, but also very handsome. Compared with the male attendants raised by some noble elders and giant merchants, it is not compromising at all.

The only difference is that Lee Seung-ji gives people a strong sense of distance. In their hearts, there was some panic for no reason.

is also a superior person who has been in power for a long time, and in terms of personality, it is inevitable that he will be a little strong. When facing others, there is a kind of pride in his bones.

Especially at times like these! Li Chengji will not show any polite corporal posture and make people laugh in vain.

After all, these people are afraid of softness and hardness, and they are not afraid of virtue and fear. If there is any great benevolence and righteousness towards it, it will only be ridiculed and looked down upon. But if they are sticks, then they will be more honest and grandson-like.

So Li Chengji deliberately put on a cold posture in front of these people.

Listening to Hetosabe's words, Faraso nodded with a smile. He was a religious elder with a transcendent status. Naturally, he will not have a personal grudge with Faraday.

Just as they were talking in a low voice, Li Chengji had entered the military fort under the guidance of Li Wei.

There are many places here, and all kinds of functional places are also available. After entering the larger main hall, a soldier led several men in extraordinary clothes walked in.

"The Governor of Bel-Udin is here." Pashwa Jiya looked at Beluddin Shamu, who was ruddy-faced, in good spirits, and neatly dressed, and said with some surprise.

After learning that Li Chengji was heading south, he rushed from Fislog to the Hibal Pass and waited. Therefore, the whereabouts of Ber-Uddin are not known. It wasn't until I saw it today that I was surprised.

"Dantur Sultan, it's even there!" , Pashwa Giya saw Bir-uddin beside him, looking lonely, and his hair was scattered, the self-proclaimed Gulsultan Dantur, and exclaimed.

Originally, he had the impression that it was impossible for these two people to survive.

After all, since ancient times, the tribesmen have killed all the losers. In the past, when the Sultan of Gur usurped the royal power of Gojining, he slaughtered the royal forces of Gojining. So much so that later, the princes and nobles of Ko Chening hid in Lahore (Lahore) for decades, and did not let go.

So according to his understanding, the cathars should have crushed these two people to ashes long ago.

"The elder doesn't know. The Governor of Ber-Uddin and the Sultan of Dantur had begged for their lives from the cathars. Therefore, the emirs of the cathars decided to leave their dogs alive and wait for the lord to deal with them. Hetosabel and Pashwa Giya have a good relationship. So after seeing him, they sat down together.

Hearing this, Pashwa Giya felt that the two of them were in a catastrophe. But this involves the change of power in the land of Gul, and he can't and can't interfere with it.

He said to a middle-aged man in bloomers, a trimmed beard, and an obvious Persian outfit behind the two: "Who is this person?" ”。

can be brought here like this, obviously their status is not low. But he didn't know that in the land of Gul, there was also a Persian sultan or satrap.

"The Governor of Sistan - Jacobi Abu Ahmad Khalaf ibn Ahmed." , Hetosabel explained with a smile.

While the cathars were passing through Sistan, Jacobi was stationed at the city of Thorn (present-day Zabol, Iran). He did not measure himself, and sent soldiers and horses to poison the water sources along the way.

Judging from the natural conditions of the desert Gobi in Sistan, his poisoning method was indeed able to force the cathars back. It's just that what he poisoned was Lake Helmand and Lake Sabali, with its vast waters, tens of thousands of catties of medicinal stones thrown into it, they would only be diluted by the lake water.

What's more, this is also the only source of water for Thorn Ling City. When they poison themselves, they are also self-defeating.

So before this method could be implemented, the generals and officials below united and surrendered to the cathars.

As a result, when the gates of the city were opened, the cathars entered the city. This whimsical governor became a gift from the military generals to the cathars.

"The descendants of Safar are becoming more and more useless." Pashwa Giya shook his head and sighed secretly.

More than 300 years ago, the founder of the Safarid dynasty, Yalqubai ibn Leys al-Safar, became the governor of Sistan as a robber who made a living as a bandit. Later, when the caliph of Baghdad was weakened, he seized the land of Sistan and proclaimed himself governor.

This was followed by the capture of Herat and Kierman in the Tahir dynasty, and then the eastward attack on Fars, as far away as Ghazni in the land of present-day Ghazni. Fame spreads, and it is tyrannical for a while. However, it was later destroyed by the Ghaznavid dynasty, leaving only its descendants to continue to rule the land of Sistan.

It is also that Sistan is not sweet compared to Khorasan and other places. Although the place is not small, it is mostly an uninhabitable desert Gobi. So in such a place, the Ghaznavid Sultan was also ruled by the descendants of the Safar.

Now the Ghaznavids have been extinct for more than a hundred years, and the successors, the Gochenin dynasty, have also been destroyed by the Gurs. But the descendants of the Fars dynasty, who were once defeated by his subordinates, miraculously survived to the present.

Of course, this is also what they are used to as grandchildren. Whoever comes, bow their heads and bow their heads. Coupled with the fact that Sistan itself is not attractive, it is fortunate that the bloodline of Fars has continued to this day.

However, when I met the cathars, I had an abnormal backbone. Thus killing themselves, the descendants of Fars fell into a great crisis.
