Wouldn't that be great, if other countries believe in Confucianism, they will not be defeated without bloodshed. Chen Qingzhi laughed, he knew that Li Ang had misunderstood what he meant.

Listening to Chen Qingzhi's words, Li Ang was stunned, he really didn't expect Chen Qingzhi's heavy meaning, "You mean to use civilization to defeat civilization?" ”

"That's right, the tradition of the Romans is very strange, their emperor is not hereditary, but often changes families, you can imagine how envious the Roman emperor was when Rome and Great Qin collided." Chen Qingzhi said eloquently, "In fact, in the past 150 years, the emperor of Rome has always wanted to pass the throne to his son like Great Qin, and his family will occupy the inheritance of the throne. ”

"But no one has succeeded so far, but the current Roman emperor thinks that he has found the key, he thinks that it is Confucianism that keeps the throne a family continuity, so since he ascended the throne, he has vigorously promoted Confucianism, and let his civil and military ministers believe in the way of loyalty and filial piety." Chen Qingzhi said, "In Daqin, there were many schools of Confucianism, but in the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhongshu's set was characterized as an evil way by Emperor Taizu and a doctrine that distorted the original intention of Confucius, and no one studied it, but in Rome, Dong Zhongshu's doctrine began to flourish with the support of the Roman emperor. ”

"How do you know that much?" Li Ang was a little surprised by Chen Qingzhi's knowledge of Rome, as far as he knew, Chen Qingzhi had not been to Rome, and it was difficult for him to imagine where he knew these things, and judging from his expression. He was quite confident that what he was saying was not a lie.

"Do you think the Romans will only run to Chang'an?" Chen Qingzhi looked at Li Ang's puzzled expression and laughed, "The Romans came to Daqin except for the Silk Road. There were also many people who would come to Great Qin by sea, and in the south, there were many Romans who came to study and study, but they were all staunch Confucians, and they often debated with Great Qin's people who believed in other doctrines. ”

"I know a few Romans." Chen Qingzhi talked about his time in the south, "They are all Confucianists who respect Confucius and Mencius as saints. And they are quite stubborn, what they want most is to obtain the household registration of Great Qin, and then let the doctrine of the sages become the official school of Great Qin again, just like in the Han Dynasty, and sometimes, even I have to admire their familiarity with the classics. ”

Leon didn't know what to say, he didn't expect that Confucianism would be popular in Rome, what is this, Confucius conquered Rome. Think of it this way. Li Ang couldn't help but shake his head, and then asked. "Did the Romans you know finally obtain the household registration of Daqin?"

"No, they are just proficient in Confucianism." Chen Qingzhi shook his head, "For foreigners, Daqin only needs craftsmen or people with skills, or rich merchants, like they can't get Daqin's household registration. ”

"In a remote village in the south. There are many Romans, Celestial Jews, who live mainly there, and they want to stay in Daqin, and then marry a Han woman, and after they have children, they can stay. Chen Qingzhi said, thinking that he knew those Romans, he couldn't help but shake his head, "To be honest." These white people are very different from our aesthetics. They think that beautiful women are usually ugly women in our eyes, but it is precisely because of this that they can marry Han women as wives. ”

"How many people are like that in the South?" Leon frowned, in his mind, these Romans, the Celestials, were all illegal immigrants.

"A lot, after all, there is a shortage of laborers and educated people in those remote villages." Chen Qingzhi thought for a while and replied, "These people actually have some benefits for Daqin, you know, now there are fewer and fewer young people who are willing to go to those remote areas to be enlightened masters, they can fill this vacancy, I heard that Yangzhou Prefecture Pastor has planned to ask the imperial court for an order, as long as those people are willing to go to those remote villages and educate the people, they can be given Daqin's household registration." ”

"Sounds good, but the people." Li Ang frowned, he admitted that Chen Qingzhi was right, but he couldn't imagine how those golden-haired foreigners would be treated when he suddenly saw them in those remote villages.

"Actually, it's nothing?" Chen Qingzhi said with a smile, "After watching it a few times, those people don't feel anything, after all, those people are almost the same as us except for their hair and skin color." ”

Just as Li Ang continued to learn some interesting stories from Chen Qingzhi that he didn't know, Ran Min rode over in the distance, "I said what are you talking about, it's been a long time, don't you feel cold?" As he spoke, he jumped off his horse, untied his wine bag from the saddle, and threw it to Li Ang and Chen Qingzhi.

"We're talking about the Romans and Jews who don't want to go home." Taking the wine bag, Li Ang replied to Ran Min, because he remembered that there seemed to be a few blonde haired ones in Ran Min's personal army, and he didn't know if they were Romans.

"Those people!" After Ran Min poured a big sip of wine, he said, "They are all five big and three rough, but they like to wear a white Confucian dress, and they don't know how much they laugh." Thinking of those Romans and Jews who had a friendship with Chen Qingzhi, Ran Min shook his head.

"To tell you the truth, with their physique, they are quite suitable to be infantrymen, but they just spend all day 'Master, Master.' It's really annoying to watch. Ran Min looked pity, the few white men under his command who came to serve as soldiers were very brave in battle.

"By the way, Ziyun, do you know the situation of the Roman army?" After coming to this world, among the people that Li Ang knew, such as Tristan, as well as Titis and others, who knew Rome, once mentioned to him that Rome was also like Great Qin, with special elite troops, and its strength was not inferior to that of Great Qin, but the number was less than that of Great Qin.

"The Roman army was originally good at infantry combat, and their close-fitting white-edged sword skills also had their own uniqueness, but since they lost to Great Qin one hundred and fifty years ago, they have not won a single of the thirteen wars with us." Chen Qingzhi replied, and then he smiled, "In fact, since sixty years ago, Rome began to fully use the military system of Great Qin, abandoning their past phalanx, and now they are not much worse than us. ”

"And I've heard all these years. The Romans began to loosen their grip on Christianity and allowed Christians to join the army. Those Christians formed a so-called Knights of God, and it seemed to be very powerful. Chen Qingzhi thought of those

Romans, frowned.

"How powerful." Seeing Chen Qingzhi's frown, Li Ang couldn't help asking, he was very curious about this so-called Divine Knights, because he had also heard of this name from Trist. I heard that it was a rather strong cavalry unit.

"They are a group of people who are not afraid of death, and I heard that like the ascetics of Kushan North India, they usually practice penance, and everyone strictly abides by the precepts, and considers themselves the guardians of the divine land, and they are basically a group of difficult guys." Chen Qingzhi replied.

"Forget it, no matter how strong they are, there are only two thousand people, and they can be stronger than the Black Cavalry Battalion." Ran Min pursed his lips on the side and said, "You know, there are ten soldiers in the Black Cavalry Battalion. Join forces against me, and you can kill me. ”

"Black Horse Battalion? It's a very tough group of people. Leon thought of the Black Cavalry Battalion with whom he had dealt with him. I couldn't help but nod.

"Alright, let's stop talking about these topics." Ran Min suddenly said loudly, and then he looked at Li Ang, "You brought us here, didn't you just let us watch those wild men kill their own people." Ran Min snorted at the capital of Tiele, which echoed with a tragic cry.

"I'm going to deal with the Turks." Li Ang said his plan, "Now the great enemy of the northern frontier of Great Qin is the Turks. As long as the Turks are defeated and the steppe is turned into a plate of scattered sand again, we will not have to worry about the defense of the north for thirty years. ”

"In the past thirty years, the empire has been seriously underarmed in the Celestial Asia due to the reduction of its armaments, and I am very worried." "The reason why the empire can dominate the world is because we have mastered the trade routes by sea and land at the same time, and at the same time we have the help of the Greeks and Jews, and the Egyptians. The Romans were firmly suppressed, and the country could not compete with us. ”

"If the Romans knew that our land was false. Suddenly with a large-scale use of troops, our hegemony is in jeopardy. Li Ang's expression was solemn, "Our future strength should be concentrated in the West, not wasted here." ”

"Indeed, if it is a two-front battle, it is very dangerous." Chen Qingzhi agreed with Li Ang's statement, the Turks could directly attack the territory of Great Qin, and if they obtained the Hanzhou grassland, it would be a big trouble.

"Now the situation is in our favor, the combined forces of Tiele and the Uighurs are nearly 300,000, and as long as they are used properly, we can weaken the steppe people with the steppe people." Leon's voice was cold, and although the Uighurs were his wife's mother, he would never be emotional as a soldier in the face of national interests.

"Before the onset of winter, we received information that the Turks were showing signs of mobilizing large forces, and I am sure that they would use troops in the winter, just like us." Leon speculated that generally speaking, the nomads would choose autumn when they attacked, because at that time, the war horses were the most majestic and could fight continuously, and after a winter, the war horses lost weight and their mobility was greatly reduced, and launching an attack in the spring was tantamount to killing themselves, so the Turks were mobilizing their forces before the winter, and the only possibility was that they intended to attack in winter.

"To attack in the winter is quite a bold move." Chen Qingzhi groaned, but he had to admit that ordinary Great Qin generals would never think that the Turks would have the courage to launch an attack in the winter when it was most unsuitable for them to fight.

"Surprise, it can be regarded as a way to use troops deeply." Chen Qingzhi suddenly said to himself, "The Turks are desperate, if their attack on Dingxiang fails, there will be no place to turn over." ”

"There's a good chance they'll succeed." Ran Min, who had been silent, spoke, "They only mobilized troops on a large scale before the winter, obviously using the heavy snow to block the support of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate to Dingxiang, as long as they are willing to fill it with their lives, they can fill in Dingxiang." ”

"But they didn't think there was us." Leon Ang's eyes flashed with coldness, "If we suddenly launch an attack on their royal court and capture it, everything the Turks have done will be in vain. ”

"I heard that the Turkic royal court was modeled after Chang'an, and it should be tricky to attack." Chen Qingzhi began to think about it.

"I have been to the Turkic royal court, although it was built according to Chang'an, but it must not be compared with Chang'an." Li Ang replied, "As long as you are willing to suffer casualties, you will definitely be able to fight." ”

"You mean to use those people as cannon fodder." Ran Min looked at the city in the distance, where the Tiele people were still venting their beastly desires.

"Just tell them that after they break through the Turkic court, they will plunder with them, and I think they will be happy." Leon smiled, but the smile was terrifyingly cold.

"It doesn't matter, it's a drain on their population anyway, and it's okay to fight whatever you want." Chen Qingzhi stopped thinking, he looked at Ran Min and said, "These people who can fight are fighting, and the rest of the people can only rely on our Great Qin, such a good thing of killing two birds with one stone cannot be wasted." ”

"You're really bad." Ran Min looked at Chen Qingzhi and Li Ang, who seemed to be sympathetic to each other, and laughed.

Five days later, the capital of Tiele fell completely silent, and the soldiers of Tieler, who had vented their bestial desires, withdrew from the city contentedly, leaving only a few people to carry the corpses out of the city.

Nearly 100,000 people died at once, and the grain and grass that was originally a little nervous suddenly became rich, which is also a good thing for Li Ang to do next, at least he doesn't have to worry about the grain and grass, and he can take 300,000 people to the expedition.

Ten days later, Tiele and the Uighur generals were gathered, and Leon announced to them that he had gone on an expedition against the Turks, and promised to let them enjoy whatever the city had after defeating the Turkic court, and that Great Qin would only destroy the Turks.

Listening to Leon's generous promise, the Tiele generals who had just enjoyed the thrill of slaughtering the city cheered loudly, and in their minds, there would soon be countless riches waiting for them to rob, and countless women waiting for them to conquer.

When the generals of Tiele shouted, the Uighur generals also shouted, and in the past few days they have watched the Tiele people unscrupulously feast on women and rob treasures in the city, and their hearts have long been aroused, and they also longed to do it for a while.

Looking at the cheering Uighur generals, the masked Lin Fengshuang was completely disappointed in them, and she no longer had any nostalgia for the Uighurs.
