Section 88 The Chinese barbarians are not handsome

In the blink of an eye, it has been three days since Lao Luo returned from Kutaisi, and most of the discussions with Al Heisian a few days ago were actually Lao Luo saying that Al was a listener, but finally Lao Luo eliminated some of the confusion in his heart.

Then it was three days of busyness, Lao Luo felt that he was worried about his life, and he didn't worry about anything without checking around, the training of recruits, the education of the boy boy camp, the production process of the joint workshop, the integration of human resources in the Tang camp, and the preparation of resources on the way back to the east...... There are too many things, as long as one thing is not in place, Lao Luo feels that he has no bottom in his heart, and tens of thousands of lives make him have to be cautious.

Fortunately, although some areas are not satisfactory, in general, they meet his requirements.

The 1,200 recruits in the camp have already begun the process of riding and archery training, and it cannot be said that they will definitely move forward bravely on the battlefield, but at least these recruits are of good quality, and they have a foundation in horsemanship. At the same time, because of the reserve of previously captured war horses and the original experience of the recruits, the run-in training of the recruits and horses prepared for the mobile light cavalry on the way back to the east was also carried out impressively.

The number of children in the boy boy camp has expanded, Li Ji and her teacher Ms. Annalia took four nannies to receive twenty-three more stray children, plus the original thirty-six, and three nanny children, one of which is Xiao Nannan, now there are sixty-two children in the boy camp, although the number is not much, but taking care of all the children's food, clothing, housing and transportation plus education, is enough for Li Ji to be busy in a mess, don't forget that in addition to the children, there are sixteen Caucasian puppies. You can imagine how lively the camp is.

The joint workshop is managed by Li Nie and Du Ne, the two old guys seem to be twenty years younger, and they are full of red faces every day to inspect and dispatch in the joint workshop, with the enthusiasm of the original skilled craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty, in just twenty days, a large number of eastbound equipment has been produced and assembled.

When Lao Luo went to check, a large number of finished products were already placed in the warehouse. Among these finished products, there are forty-three partial vans, twenty floating cars, three hundred iris shields, four hundred fine scimitars, six thousand eight-meter spears, four hundred cavalry bows, two hundred rhubarb crossbows, and arrows are even more difficult to count, and it is estimated that there are at least 100,000 of them.

There is no forging equipment, no mobile processing equipment, all rely on manpower forging, and the airbags of the floating car are also all hand-sewn, in just 20 days, so many cold weapons have been made, Lao Luo is very surprised by the efficiency of these Tang craftsmen.

When he asked the two responsible persons, Ligne and Doune, they gave him a natural answer. "Since I knew that I was going back to my hometown, everyone was like crazy, and the old craftsmen who were already idle at home would almost all want to live in the workshop if they were not dragged home by the younger generations, and in order to sew the balloon, even the old women who were over the age of the sixtieth were holding needles and threads!"

When he heard this statement, he couldn't help but be moved, and when he went to the workshop to check during working hours, he found that the whole workshop was in good order, but it was also overcrowded, the gray-haired old man and the young craftsman were forging the iron bars used for the car body, and the old woman with the same gray hair and the young woman sat in groups, sewing pieces of cut sheepskin with long needles and leather ropes, and then sealing the gaps by the fish glue or peach gum next to them. Once the balloons are made, a big man will lift them to the other side and attach a fixed circle metal frame, which will be attached to the diesel fuel tank......

There are no people who complain about being tired, and everyone has a happy smile on their faces. In the other special testing field, some sturdy men are knocking on the box of the partial van, and some people are pulling the balloon of the floating car, adjusting the flame size of the kerosene burning furnace......

This kind of scene is very similar to the scene that Lao Luo saw in the arsenal in his later generations, the only difference is that the building next to it has a few miscellaneous equipment.

The excited Du Ne walked around with Lao Luo, and muttered: "It's the first time to make such a large car, especially the floating car, everyone is not familiar with it, the beginning of the production is a little slow, it has been much better recently, and the remaining more than 100 floating cars will be made in another month and a half, as for the partial car, as long as the material supply is fine, it can be overcompleted when it is on the road......"

Lao Luo, who patrols everywhere, has to be proud of his relatives, they are so hardworking, so simple, as long as they are given a heart-warming goal, they will work tirelessly for it. There is no comparison heart that complains about doing more and less in later generations, and there is no concern about deducting raw materials and taking them home to keep for their own philistines.

You must know that most of this kind of busyness is only a small amount of wages, and they don't know whether the things they make are eligible to enjoy, what they know is that after making these things, all the clansmen can return to their hometowns safely, without worrying about the bandits on the road, and not worrying about the bumps and difficulties on the road.

Coming to this era, Lao Luo felt for the first time that he had something worth working on.

Nothing else, just for the busy craftsmen who called themselves "General Luo" despite the flow of sweat, just for the respectful smiles of the women who were busy delivering the food when they glanced at them hurriedly, and for the simple bow of the half-university apprentices who were running around the venue to deliver the news......

"Allah is above, Bartol, I dare say that your mother people should be the most industrious people in the world, even the hardest cotton farmers on the banks of the Nile!" For the first time, I discovered that busyness and sweat also affect people, and you see that the Persians and Armenians are also busy. ”

Lao Luo saw the Persians and Armenians that Elhesian was referring to, and those people also wore Tang people's hairstyles and wore Tang clothes, "No, Al, those are not Persians and Armenians, they are also Tang people, you say this, people will be angry?" ”

"Why? Looking at their faces, it was clear that they were Persians and Armenians......" Elhesyn's voice lowered.

"The Tang or the Han Chinese, the Chinese, or the Cylis, as many Romans live, how can we say, we are a civilized race, not a blood race, Al, I think you understand what I mean?" Lao Luo explained with some difficulty.

"See, Bartol, I see, you are more open than the Romans, and you know how to absorb the strengths of the surrounding ethnic groups better than us Arabs......" Worthy of the great sage, El Hesian quickly understood the meaning of Lao Luo's words.

"Yes, in this era, our race is still developing, and she absorbs the strengths of many of the tribes around the East, and includes those tribes in our customs, and of course they all change a little bit from each other, and then they become one race." Lao Luo tried his best to explain the characteristics of the Eastern race in words that Al could understand, and of course he avoided some things.

As a scholar, he naturally understands this kind of ethnic integration, the so-called Arabs are not a simple blood group, they rely on war to expand, and then use religion to integrate different tribes, but their original tribal population is too small, and this era has entered a period of decline, which can be seen from the order of the Abbasid caliphate not even out of Baghdad. It's just that Al-Hesian doesn't have a sense of belonging to the Arab world, his experience as a child, his academic exclusion as an adult, and then his lack of attention from the ruling class, he has lost his sense of belonging to the tribe that grew up in the desert, otherwise he would not have given a Roman name.

"It looks like I'm going to be a Tang man in the future......" Al Hesian said with emotion.

"Not necessarily the Tang people, the general name of our eastern tribes is generally the Chinese people, the earliest appearance of this kind of self-proclaimed was 1,500 years ago, there is a book that records the words 'Chinese barbarians, recklessly', the main ethnic group is generally called Han or Han people, from the Han Empire thousands of years ago, as for the Tang people are just the name of the past few hundred years." Lao Luo rarely remembers the words in a book, and now he feels a special sense of glory when he talks about it, but the connection of these eight words is really too biting.

"The flowers are full of Mo... Wang No... Handsome? What is the meaning? ”

This sentence comes from a book that records the history of the ancient East, and the middle describes that 1,500 to 1,800 years ago, the Zhou State in the East had a king named Wucheng, whose rule was recognized and accepted by all the ethnic groups in the East, among which Huaxia, Barbarian, and Qi were the different tribes in the East at that time, and Huaxia was the main tribe at that time. Al Hessin's pronunciation was hilarious, and Lao Luo had to explain it in Arabic according to his own understanding.

"Allah is on it, fifteen hundred years, when Alexander the Great and Plato's great men were not yet born, right? No wonder many people say that the Seris and the ancient Babylonians are from the same period...... "Elhesion sighed a little distracted, he was deeply influenced by ancient Greek and Roman scholarship, and at this moment he suddenly heard the academic information from the far East, and he was naturally fascinated by it.

Lao Luo looked at Al Hesian and stopped making a sound, he himself also felt some differences, in the propaganda and education of later generations, CHN always said that he has a long history of the nation, he is a soldier who walks all over the world all the year round, but he does not feel too much national pride, and now in this era, listening to the sighs of the leaders of the alien people around him for their own race, thinking of the sages of the East and the West that he knows, as well as the disturbances of various nationalities after this era, he can't help but have a feeling of being in the river of time.

The leaders of this era stood beside Lao Luo, and the distant ancestors seemed to be in front of him in the dialogue between the two people, and the descendants in Lao Luo's memory existed in his memory, as if they were watching him from behind him.

What should it be like?

Well, Lao Luo now feels less and less like a soldier, and how does he feel like a sentimental philosopher when he looks at himself, there should be no problem with the battlefield syndrome in the past, but he feels that he is not doing something wrong now, originally he liked to use his fists to speak, maybe he hasn't killed anyone for a long time?

God knows that Lao Luo's last killing has only been three or four months since now.
