Chapter 517: Shame and Shame
Dashi is also a big country, and the taxes that can be provided are extremely considerable, copper coins are not popular here, and gold and silver are expensive, so taxes are settled in gold and silver. The purchasing power of gold and silver in the Tang Dynasty is far greater than that in Dashi, and the annual taxes paid by all the Dehegans who have joined the Tang Dynasty are counted together - including the Dehegans who have surrendered to Niuxu and the Dehegans who have surrendered to Niuxu need to provide - these gold and silver are transported to the Central Plains and converted into the best Kaiyuan Tongbao, the amount has reached more than six million yuan.
And if the whole territory of Dashi is completely occupied, the tax that can be provided will be even more, and it may even reach 10 million yuan. And Datang's current annual income is only more than 30 million yuan.
Of course, this is not to say that the national strength of Dashi is one-third of that of Datang, which is naturally impossible. The main reason is that gold and silver are scarce things in the Tang Dynasty, so there will be so many copper coins when converted into copper coins. Copper coins are not popular in the west of Green Mountain, and they are all gold and silver as currency, but Datang can only use copper as money, because the output of gold and silver is too small. A small Fusang produces more silver than Datang.
Such a rich income is enough to support the Anxi Army of 100,000 tigers, and it is really not worth mentioning to pay one million taels to Chang'an every year, not to mention that the wealth paid to Chang'an is now replaced by ordnance, and there is no need for real money.
The Persians were obedient enough to receive a very large amount of money each year, and as conquerors, they did not have to bear any obligations, public facilities, disaster relief, and so on. This situation is the best at the moment, and for Ma Lu, he has no intention of plundering the Persians on a large scale, after all, it is to occupy it for a long time, and the matter of drying up the rivers and fishing and burning the forests and hunting is not a long-term solution after all.
Things are going very well, and the situation is very good. Ma Luan's mood was also very good, although Zhao Guang's incident made him unhappy, but he quickly left it behind. Compared with the current situation, Zhao Guang This is just a trivial matter, and it is not worth exposing at all.
……
A lonely carriage on a wide post road. Beside the carriage were several knights with expressionless faces. Caravans passed by from time to time on the post road, and when they saw this carriage, the merchants were extremely respectful, and hurriedly avoided the side of the road, allowing the carriage to pass first.
The knights by the carriage ignored the merchants and continued to walk in silence. The merchants waited until the carriage had gone far before continuing to drive the camels forward.
There was no other reason for them to be so respectful, but because the carriage had a flag on it. It was the battle flag of the Anxi Army, and this ancient and vast land. All of them are the territory of the Tang Anxi Army.
In this land, the Anxi army had privileges, and one of the privileges was that the merchants had to make way for the army. Avoiding the side of the road is not because they show respect to the Anxi army, but because of the rules set by the Anxi army, and those who violate the rules will definitely end up miserable.
This ancient post road was built during the Sassanid Empire and is hundreds of years old. It has always been the main route from Isfahan to Khorasan. The knights followed the general along this path, gaining respect with their blood-stained swords along the way. This time they set foot on this road again, and the villages and towns they saw along the way were still alien villages, but everywhere was the banner of the Tang Dynasty.
They are the executors of military law in the Anxi Army, originally a subordinate of Du Yuhou, and now they have a novel name, called the gendarmerie. In the new army of Anthy. They are also fearsome beings. This time, however, they were tasked with sending a man back to the city.
This person was in the carriage, and his name was Zhao Guang.
This name is known to every gendarme, and it is extremely disgraceful to mention it. As an enforcer in the military. The most common thing they do is to beat the military stick, and the new army is full of good men, and the people who are cowardly under the military stick are the first time they have met.
Leaving the ruins of Isfahan, one first walked through the five hundred miles of uninhabited land that had been created before, and then passed through villages and towns, and wherever he went, the local Dekhgan was extremely hospitable. The Anxi Army is now famous for its murder, and no one dares to confront the Anxi Army. And the gendarmes are also fully armed, and the Yuan Rong crossbow in their hands is enough to ensure their own safety.
People like Zhao Guang naturally can't stay in the army anymore, and after sending Zhao Guang to Capture and Drink City this time, someone will take over and send Zhao Guang across Green Mountain, and eventually send this cowardly goods to the east of the quicksand. There is no room for such a courageless person in the Anxi army, no one will want to be with such a person, and no one will treat Zhao Guang as a robe anymore.
It's not a good job, but it's the duty of the gendarmerie. When there were no Persians around, the knights would inevitably laugh at Zhao Guang sitting in the carriage when talking, and if there were outsiders, they would have to save some face for Zhao Guang, in fact, to save face for the Anxi army. As for what Zhao Guang thought in his heart, no one cared, and no one paid attention.
The journey was extremely calm, and I stayed overnight every day, constantly hurrying. Most of the encounters were Persians, and they occasionally saw their own scouts. Soon after passing through the salt desert, you will arrive at the city of Shabul, which is already considered the Khorasan region.
This place is also an important hub in the territory of Dashi, and the city is now garrisoned by Tang troops. These were not new army athletes, but two thousand veterans from Anxi, who were equipped with a small number of Yuanrong crossbows, and most of them were still equipped with riding crossbows.
The standards of the new army in Anxi are harsh, requiring them to be able to dance the Mo knife immediately, which is not something that everyone can do, these veterans cannot be selected into the new army, but they are also the elite of the Han army in the four towns, and the elite after a hundred battles. This time, the Governor's Palace focused on the west of Green Mountain, so it also began to garrison troops in the important cities of Dashi, mainly these troops. After occupying the Great Food, the ruling system must also be established, and it is inevitable to garrison troops in important cities, and the establishment of Fengsui Horse Shop must also be carried out. Your Shabuer City is the latest city to have a large army enter, and there are troops to enter the hinterland of Dashi one after another, and establish fortresses in various important cities.
Mounted crossbows are standard for these troops, and the Yuanrong crossbow is a recent production. Master Li Xiu is now in the city of Hunting, and with him, he will naturally produce the Yuanrong crossbow, this weapon is the ultimate force of the Anxi Army in a short period of time, and the production will naturally not stop.
The gendarmes don't know about this kind of thing, but they are naturally very happy to see Pao Ze in your Shabuer City. The gendarmes saw the leading generals and also talked about Zhao Guang, and the generals and colonels were extremely disdainful when they heard about Zhao Guang.
A guy who got mixed up with the captain couldn't beat a military stick, which was really embarrassing.
"Come, come, come! Let's take a look at what this eggless thing looks like! Then don't shout loudly, several lieutenants walked up with a smile, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and directly pulled Zhao Guang down.
Several gendarmes laughed and watched from the sidelines, but they did not stop them. Their task is to send people to the hunt and drink safely, and the others are not in the task, this person is no longer a robe, and the robes don't care how they treat them.
I have been nesting in the car for so many days, and suddenly I felt that my eyes were dazzling, Zhao Guang involuntarily covered his forehead with his hands, and the young don't look at Zhao Guang and laughed: "Sure enough, it's a little white face, the same as I thought." It's not a little white face, and it won't be embarrassing! ”
Several lieutenants looked at Zhao Guang and laughed. This kid is quite tall and looks white and clean, so it is estimated that it is good to attract his daughter's family, but he is not a good man. The guy who was cowardly under the stick should look like this.
"Take off his clothes and see if he has any eggs!" Don't laugh out loud, a captain smiled and came to lift Zhao Guang's robe, Zhao Guang suddenly took a step back, squinted his eyes and said loudly: "You guys...... What to do! ”
"I don't do anything, I just want to see if you have any eggs." The captain took a step forward with a smile, and Zhao Guang hurriedly took a step back.
Several gendarmes laughed on the side, and they didn't care if this coward was insulted. Several other lieutenants forced over, Zhao Guang panicked, and shouted: "You guys get away!" Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated! ”
"Don't fucking drag the text! Gentlemen don't eat this set! Take off! Don't pout, shouting. Several lieutenants rushed up laughing and directly picked up Zhao Guang's clothes, and one captain directly pulled Zhao Guang's crotch cloth and threw it aside.
Zhao Guang was furious and struggled hard, several lieutenants let go of him, and one of them kicked Zhao Guang and directly kicked him to the ground.
"You guys! You muddy balls! The lieutenant's kick was not light, Zhao Guang fell to the ground, shouted angrily, and his face turned blue with anger.
"Tsk! It turns out that there are eggs! The don't take a look at it, and waved his hand in disappointment, "Such an unseeded guy, the guy is actually bigger than Lao Tzu!" This is a donkey goods, is there any reason for the fuck! ”
Everyone laughed, pointed at Zhao Guang, and judged their heads. Zhao Guang sat there, his eyes blood-red with anger.
How could he have suffered such humiliation? When he was in the army, how could he have such a time? Now that Tiger Falls Pingyang is being bullied by dogs, he has to suffer such treatment, these guys can't even enter the new army, but they don't take him seriously!
Several gendarmes were grinning beside him, and they didn't mean to speak for him, Zhao Guang gritted his teeth and stood up, went to pick up his clothes and put them on his body, and retied the crotch cloth.
This group of people did not stop it, after all, they are all men, it is enough to look at them, and it will only be disgusting to see too much. Seeing Zhao Guang's angry appearance, a group of people laughed insolently, but they didn't pay attention to him.
"This kind of donkey goods has some capital. But if you don't plant like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to get hard. ”
"That's for sure, if it's a real man, how can you be so embarrassed!"
"It's a pity, haha!"
"People are more popular than people, but Lao Tzu's military stick is hard enough, and the sisters who have used it know it."
"Hahaha......"
Zhao Guang had a gloomy face and walked into the carriage by himself. Today's things are things he has never experienced before. At this time, he even had the heart to die.
But if they die, wouldn't it be cheaper for these guys! (To be continued.) )
