Chapter 7: Rebellion
A woman's anger always comes and goes away suddenly.
Regarding Qin Cang's dead skin and wanting to rely on the Ka Catalogue, Bao Yin felt that it was not impossible. But Qin Cang needs to make more sincere moves. For example, untie the holster around her neck first.
However, Qin Cang turned a deaf ear to this. But Qin Cang's sentence "It's also yours" made Baoyin feel that it would be good if she could be the head mother of a big clan.
"How many of you are left?"
“189.......”
"Are there any other villages around here?"
"It's gone. There used to be Rus', but they were either captured or fled elsewhere. There are no other villages in the vicinity. ”
The Rus' are the Slavs. Of course, there are some differences between the two. The Rus' were at least not killed by the Mongols. The Rus' appeared here precisely because of the slave trade, which had previously continued until now. The difference is that the subject has changed. In the past, it was the upper nobles of the Rus' who went to capture slaves from the lower classes, and now it was the Tatars who went around taking Slavic slaves and selling them to the Genoese. The Genoese were then transshipped to the Mediterranean and sold to the Ottoman Turks or the Mamluks in Egypt.
In fact, the Turks, that is, the current Tatars, are also in a big market. Turkic slaves were sold for more value than Slavic slaves. But now the Crimean Khanate and other countries are dominated by Tatar nobles, and only when the tribes fight, slaves will flow out, and other times there will be more Slavic slaves.
It's much easier to do it if there is no one nearby. Qin Cang knew in his heart that the only threat now was the Genoese.
"What about the governor of Kaffa of the Genoese? When will he come? ”
Qin Cang's question made the Greeks feel a little confused.
"Governor Kaffa? Maybe ten years, maybe twenty years. Anyway, it's been a long, long time since we've heard of anyone else coming here. ”
Come on, Qin Cangle is happy. I'm afraid that the governor of Kaffa has long forgotten that there is another village on the Kerch Peninsula.
"Brothers, unload all the wagons and go to the South District to pick a house to live in! Don't be afraid of leaks, fix it yourself! Look at the rocks next to it! Bolt up the horses, cattle and sheep! Beware of thieves! ”
The camp of the Han tribe immediately began to be busy.
The men carried the women of the family, usually more than one or two women, carrying the various household goods on the backs of horses and oxen. Some people still like to live in tents, so they build tents on the foundation of their houses. Some people like to have a house, so they go around picking up rocks and mud and piling them up to mend their rooms.
Qin Cang couldn't just watch, he found a few wealthy local Greeks, and then "paid" from them to get a two-story building between the harbor area where the Greeks lived and the southern district where the Han people would move in immediately.
As for the relationship between the individual tribes and with the local conquered Greeks, this still needs to be carefully considered by Qin Cang.
Kerch is generally divided into four parts due to its semi-enclosing bay topography. The harbor area is where the Greeks lived; The southern area is a large area of collapsed houses, occupied by Qin Cang and the tribes; The North Quarter, on the other hand, is much older, where most of the houses are gone, and it has become a place for the Greeks to cultivate the land; The Northwest was even more dilapidated, and its only function was probably to guard against the Tatars who might rush down from the northwest.
Qin Cang stood on the roof of the two-story building and looked south, most of the place was still the dome of the tent. Obviously, even if Qin Cang didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that the Han tribe was deeply influenced by Huhua. Many people don't know how to eat with chopsticks or plow the fields. So much so that when Qin Cang said that he wanted to cultivate farmland here, some people dismissed it and asked that they should go to the west to graze.
And how to solve all this?
Qin Cang's heart is also unknown.
......
At night, the bonfire gradually rises, and the aroma of beef and mutton begins to waft everywhere. On a rare day, everyone is still very happy. After running for more than ten days, I finally arrived at a stable place. Next, the planting of the land, the grazing of the grazing, everyone can also have a peaceful life.
Some of them danced on the steppe, and even pulled the Tatar women to dance with them, and the evening was as lively as a banquet.
However, some people don't think so.
In the Greek village, a young man was running around.
"Shameful Tatars! Why not drive them away! ”
"They robbed us of our land!"
"Your ship is going to be gone!"
......
The silent Greeks gathered and listened to what the young man was saying.
"We live here in peace, with few enemies. Although it was bitter, there was still land and sea, and we were able to catch some fish, although very few; We can eat wheat, though very little. We still have churches, and God has come to protect us. But the Tatars came! ”
The young man struggled to wield the scythe in his hand.
"Tatars! It's a demon! It's the devil! It's the vanguard of the infidels! They burned the land of the Lord and slaughtered the Lord's cattle and sheep! The sins they have committed are heinous! I've heard that only Constantinople is left in Rome to survive! The shameful infidels have broken the walls of Sofia in Bulgaria, and driven by the devil, they have bulldozed the Serbian farmland, bound the slaves and conquered the cathedral of Athens!
The infidels will surely kill us! Whether it's in Shizana or Antioch! And Jerusalem! Believers ......"
The Greeks gathered together and listened nervously to the speech of the priest Arms.
Arms was young, and his nose was covered with sweat at the moment. The over-congested face was flushed. He wears ordinary clothes, but he makes himself look like a saint!
"We're going to rebel! My brothers and sisters! Grab your kitchen knives, sickles, and even daggers! Or a flail, a paddle! Come on! Let's move forward! Go kill the infidels! The angels will protect us!! ”
If Qin Cang was there, he would find out that the priest who made trouble was actually the one who answered his question today.
However, Qin Cang is still nibbling on the leg of mutton here at the bonfire party, and at the same time thinking about bringing some food to Baoyin and the crazy woman later.
Qin Chuan stood outside the bonfire and looked at the sea intently, not knowing what he was thinking.
The bonfire continued, and the place where the songs and dances almost made Qin Cang think that he had flown back to the Inner Mongolia grassland in the past. He remembered the Naadam convention he had the privilege of visiting.
Suddenly, a shout of killing woke everyone up!
Looking at the firelight that appeared in the northeast, Qin Cang was a little silent.
It's too simple to think for yourself.
How could the Greeks throw away their independence and take refuge under Qin Cang's banner?
"Han Jiazi! Draw the knife!!! ”
