At the beginning of their statehood, the Uighurs used a Turkic script and language, and in Arabic literature, this ethnic group is often classified as Turkic. In the process of the eastward expansion of the Tianfang Sect, after coming to the Hezhong region, it encountered religious resistance from Mingjiao, Buddhism, and Zoroastrianism, and after the withdrawal of the Tang Dynasty's power, the biggest obstacle in military affairs was these Turkic peoples who lacked stable beliefs, so if they could conquer the Turkic peoples and convert them to the true God, it would be a supreme glory and merit for those fanatical jihadists. As for the means used, it doesn't matter.

On his journey from Lanzhou to Kashgar, Zhang Mai asked his guides, locals, and more knowledgeable travelers more than once why the Celestial Church occupies the entire northwest and even spreads to the hinterland of the Central Plains, so that most of China is mottled green. A traveler gushed about the history of the Tianfang Sect in the east, and the time span reached a thousand years, and Zhang Mai couldn't fully remember it, but he remembered one of the most crucial links: there was a monarch of an ancient nomadic dynasty who ordered the whole territory to convert to the Tianfang Sect, and led 200,000 nomads to become followers of the Tianfang Sect overnight. Next, these nomadic knights who converted to Tianfang Religion continued to wage holy wars to the East, with military conquest and bloodshed, and perished in Khotan (a large country in the south of Xin-Xinjiang and the northern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and a traditional vassal of China), infiltrated Hexi (Gansu area) and killed all the way, exterminating Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, Mingjiao, and Nestorianism along the way, and isolating the influence of Confucianism, which lasted for thousands of years.

Perhaps because of his education, the names of those people in Central Asia are always repeated, and those Ali, Hassan, Abdul, Nasser, Bogra, etc., are called Zhang Mai like Zhang San and Li Si, especially the "key monarch at the critical moment" The traveler and the locals said that he had several names when he was introduced, and each name had a different translation, and there seemed to be more than a dozen names, so Zhang Mai did not quickly associate it with Satuq Bogra at first, but " The plot of 200,000 nomads being ordered to convert" was too shocking, so Zhang Mai immediately remembered when he heard Zheng Wei's words: "Could it be that this Satuk is that person?" ”

On the contrary, Zheng Wei was a little surprised that Zhang Mai did not know about the Mujahideen: "Although these things cannot be said to be known to everyone in the territory of Huifu, the Nershahi family is very clear - their family has converted to the Heavenly Sect on the surface because of their business relationship, but in fact they are still Mingjiao cultists secretly, wasn't Abula taken away by you?" You didn't ask him about these things? ”

Zhang Mai smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this, he did have the intention of taking Abul ibn al-Nar Shahi to get information from him, but since he didn't know that there was such a thing as a mujahideen, how could he ask Abula? And Abule has not yet reached the point of putting his heart into the Anxi Tang Army, and he did not take the initiative to explain these situations.

However, Zhang Mai's face did not show it, he just shrugged his shoulders and said, "Now that the shape shì is this shape shì, then how are you going to deal with Saikan?" ”

"Satuk is a leader favored by the mujahideen, he is resolute and resolute, and his subordinates are extremely strict, this time he was dragged out by Arslan, and Sekan stayed in Talas, and the responsibility is great, but he has fought several defeats during Satuk's departure, and the soldiers were defeated, and the city of Ja Ersi and Kulan was captured within a few days, and a large amount of money and food was swept away, but he didn't even touch your shadow, according to Satuk's previous behavior, Sekan was so incompetent this time, and the punishment of demotion was light, It's possible to split the corpses of five horses, and Secan is going crazy now! So the first thing he did after he arrived in Kulan City was to send someone to rush to Extinction, at first I thought he was going to transfer troops, but then I didn't see Zerji's soldiers and horses arrive, only to realize that Sekan's most urgent thing is not to transfer troops, but to cut off the news here, to buy time for himself, from the table after he entered Julan City, it can be seen that I just need to ...... right now"

When Zheng Wei said this, he suddenly found that Zhang Mai's eyes suddenly lit up, just like a Persian cat opening its eyes in the dark night!

"What's wrong with you?"

He didn't know that the few intelligence points he had inadvertently mentioned just now had stirred up an angry sea in Zhang Mai's mind!

At present, the actions of the Anxi Tang Army have begun to hesitate to move south, and in addition to the lack of strength, what is more troublesome is the lack of intelligence!

Now for Zhang Mai, intelligence is 10,000 times more valuable than gold!

And Zheng Wei's words just now allowed Zhang Mai to capture two key information points:

The first is Satuk's character - his majesty is extremely strict.

The second is Sekan's predicament - if he can't find the Tang Army to achieve a victory, he may be punished, or even beheaded!

"You mean, Secan is in a hurry than we are now?" Zhang Mai asked.

"yes, what's wrong?" Zheng Wei also seemed to sense that Zhang Mai seemed to have a plan.

"So, according to your estimate, when will Satuk return?" Zhang Mai pondered for a long time and asked again.

"It's hard to say, but it shouldn't be that fast." Zheng Wei said: "Before you came, Satuk suddenly transferred a large number of military horses from Talas, and I heard that Shule also made the same move, and we businessmen were very nervous at first, thinking that Satuk was going to have a showdown with Arslan. ”

The two khans in the Hui territory were in contention, and that was a major event that would cause turmoil in the whole country, and if they stood on the right line at such a juncture, they would be rich and noble, and if they stood in the wrong ranks, the whole family would be rich and noble -- these merchants should naturally pay attention.

Later, when I inquired, I found out that it was not, and it turned out that this time Satuk transferred troops on the order of Arslan Khan, as if he was going to the north to deal with some powerful people. It is estimated that there may have been another group of nomads or barbarians in the mountains and forests who did not submit to the jurisdiction of Barasagon. ”

The nomadic nomadic peoples always catch up with one by one, the Xiongnu decline and the rise of Xianbei, the decline of Xianbei and the rise of the soft, the decline of the Rouran and the rise of the Turks, the decline of the Turks and the rise of the Hui, those newly rising peoples, at the beginning always started from the border wilderness, the hair is very small, but later the iron hooves shook the sky, swept the Hu land, although the Hui people now have achieved dominance within a radius of thousands of miles, but it is not surprising that a group of people who are more barbaric than them suddenly emerge between the grasslands, deserts, wilderness, and mountains and forests. And it is reasonable for the Hui people to pay strict attention to this in order to prevent the slightest deterioration.

But Zhang Mai's face became a little strange when he heard this, and asked Zheng Wei: "What kind of barbarians are you talking about, and where are they active?" ”

"It looks like it's in the upper reaches of the Broken Leaf River."

Zhang Mai made a very strange line on his brow when he heard this, and then suddenly laughed out loud, laughing inexplicably at Zheng Wei: "What's wrong?" Zhang Mai didn't answer, but he couldn't stop laughing, Zheng Wei is also an extremely smart person, discerning his face, reasoning, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "Could it be ......" slapped his thigh and shouted: "It's you!" It's you! It turns out that it is you who are harassing the Hui people in the upper reaches of the Broken Leaf River! ”

Zhang Mai smiled and said, "Until now, you are still 'you', 'your', have you come to this point, are you really not willing to go with us?" ”

Zheng Wei's heart sank, this is the second time Zhang Mai has sent him an invitation, that day in Julan City, although the Tang army swept away a lot of Zheng family's property, but the attitude is still very friendly, and now they have fallen into such a field They have not abandoned themselves because of this, Zhang Mai, Guo Luo, Yang Yi and others even took the initiative to help themselves avenge, it can be seen that their intentions are very sincere.

However, is there really a way out by following these people? For Zheng Wei, perhaps a more feasible option is to try to return to Samarkand, which is also very difficult, but I am afraid that it is more likely to succeed than following the Tang army to fight the world.

Although he has read all the scriptures, just like the literati of ancient and modern China and foreign countries, Zheng Weixia is always not so quick to make decisions, and like businessmen throughout the ages, he always has a balance in his heart, and before making a decision, he must always put the advantages and disadvantages on both ends of the scale, adjust the crosshairs of morality, and weigh the benefits and disadvantages.

Return to Datang and Chang'an......

Compared to the reality that Tang Jun was now trapped in this Broken Leaf Desert, Zheng Wei felt that the dream was too illusory.
