Chapter 32: The Fall of the Arab Empire

readx;

At the beginning, Yusuf advocated eastward expansion, conquest of China, and enslavement of China, and these ministers were particularly cheerful, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Because China is the legendary "Golden Country", if you conquer China, there will be infinite benefits.

Now, when the Tang army came and the Arab Empire was in turmoil, they put all the blame on Yusuf, saying that it was Yusuf's trouble, and they were really shameless.

Malek asked a question that they couldn't answer.

"Caliph, the Chinese are calling, we are not in a good situation, it is better to discuss how to deal with the current situation first." When some ministers saw that Malek had a tendency to get angry, they hurriedly changed the topic.

"Hmph." Now is the time to discuss how to deal with it, not to reprimand these ministers, Malik snorted coldly and said, "Let's talk about how we should deal with it." ”

"Caliph, since the news of the restoration of Persia spread, we have been in a very bad situation. The revolt has become more and more fierce everywhere, and it has swept the whole country. Although we have a large army, we can't suppress it everywhere. ”

"Yes. These heathens are so hateful, they go about doing evil, killing our people, and plundering our goods. There are even more infidels colluding with the Chinese to lead the Chinese to attack. ”

"If we had known that, we should have killed all these heretics."

The ministers began to shout and talk about rebellions everywhere.

To use an analogy, the Arab Empire has long been a powder keg that only needs a little spark to detonate. With the arrival of the Tang Army, the restoration of Persia was Mars, which successfully detonated this powder keg and caused turmoil in various places.

"Kill the light? You know how to kill. Killed, only we are left, what is the use of conquering these lands? ”

"There is no mouth, only land, but desert."

Immediately, the minister refuted. Conquest, not just for the land, but more for the population. With only land, no population, is it still interesting to conquer?

"I've been wondering if there's something wrong with the religious policy we're imposing. Everywhere we went, the resistance was always so fierce that no matter how much we suppressed, it was useless. One of the biggest reasons for their rebellion is their unwillingness to believe in Allah. ”

"You're going too far. Those who do not believe in Allah, even pagans, deserve to die, this is the rule laid down by the Prophet. ”

"If you don't believe in Allah, you have to die, and if you don't leave a way to live, who can not resist? Shouldn't we think of something else? ”

Some ministers became suspicious of the religious policy of the Arab Empire.

Much of the reason for today's turmoil is the religious policies of the Arab Empire. Especially in Persia, which was the territory of Manichaeism, this hard-line and brutal religious policy was met with the most fierce resistance. This is the reason why the Arab Empire conquered Persia for decades, but it was never able to pacify Persia.

"It's been a long time, and you're still arguing and arguing." Malik's face was not good, and he shouted in a deep voice.

The ministers immediately shut up.

"You are right, a big reason for today's situation is that we are strongly promoting religion." Malik nodded, and said, "Yusuf has written to me, asking us to stop being so savage and forceful in promoting religion, and to leave a way for these heretics to live. It can be solved by collecting taxes, and if you don't believe in Allah, you have to pay high taxes. ”

"It's a good idea. It can leave a way for the infidels to live, and it can also increase our taxes. ”

"Unfortunately, it's late. The Chinese have already called, and no matter how good the way is, it is useless. ”

Malek's words were both appreciated and regretted.

It is indeed too late, and if it had been proposed and implemented earlier, the situation would have been very different.

Historically, it would take some time for the Arab empire to change course on religious issues. Now, because the Tang Dynasty is coming, Yusuf is forced by the situation to propose this solution in advance.

It is precisely because of the change of religious policy that the historical Arab empire has truly stabilized, and under the common religion, it has moved towards integration and cohesion.

Now, it's all in vain.

"Great caliph, big things are bad, big things are bad." At this moment, I saw a guard coming quickly, and shouted from afar.

Today's Arab Empire is in turmoil, and it is already a bad thing, if there is another big thing, it will definitely make it worse, and everyone's faces suddenly became gloomy, staring at this guard.

"What?" Malik asked in a deep voice.

"Great caliphate, turmoil in Spain." The guard hurriedly reported and said, "The Spaniards are rebelling everywhere, and now the whole of Spain is unstable. ”

The Umayyad dynasty went on a major campaign, and Yusuf was in charge of the east, wanting to conquer and enslave the Tang Dynasty. The West attacked Spain, conquered Spain, and laid the foundations of the Arab Empire.

However, Spain is extremely unstable. In the past, relying on the strong military strength of the Arab Empire, it was still able to hold on. Now, with the news of the restoration of Persia and riots taking place in various parts of Spain, the garrisons here want to suppress it, but they are not strong enough to suppress it. As a result, the whole of Spain was no longer owned by the Arab Empire.

"Hmph." Malek snorted coldly, and was about to get angry.

However, another guard hurried in and reported to him, saying, "Great caliph, there is turmoil in Syria. The heretics killed our officers and soldiers, and plundered our barns. The whole of Syria is no longer ours. ”

Syria was one of the earliest places to conquer, but there were also many pagans who did not want to convert to Muslims and fought against the Arab Empire all the time.

Malek's face was gloomy again.

Syria is very important to the Arab Empire, and even this is no longer owned by the Arab Empire, which is too heavy.

However, there is an even heavier blow.

"Great caliph, big things are bad, big things are bad." Another guard hurried in and shouted, "The governor of Egypt has cedered himself and claimed that he will no longer submit to the great caliph. ”

"What? Self-reliance? Malik jumped up and screamed like charcoal fire falling into the crotch of his pants.

"Impossible!" The ministers also shouted, all of them shocked.

They can still accept the resistance of the infidels, after all, the infidels are resisting all the time, and if they do not resist at this time, they are not infidels.

However, as the governor of Egypt, he openly rebelled, no longer submitted, and cede his own land, which set a precedent, and the consequences were very terrible. If the Arab Empire could not suppress it immediately, it would trigger a chain reaction, and many local officials would follow suit.

He also ...... Also ...... "The guards stammered."

"What are you saying?" Malek raised his eyebrows, like a sharp sword, and shouted.

The guard shrank his neck and said busily: "He also said that the great caliph is not in the right position, he is a man and a thief of the people, and everyone deserves to be punished." ”

"Bang!" Malik's face turned pale, he grabbed the gold cup in front of him and smashed it on the ground, and scolded loudly: "Fart! Fuck his shit! He's just farting! ”

This period was the reign of the Umayyad dynasty over the Arab Empire. This dynasty ended the era of the four caliphs and was the first dynasty in the history of the Arab Empire.

Although it has been 50 years since the Umayyad dynasty was established, the influence of the four caliphs is still there, and many people want to restore the succession system of the four caliphs. For this reason, the Umayyad Dynasty fought many wars, and there are still many places in the country that oppose this dynasty, and wars break out from time to time.

As soon as Malek's mind turned here, it was confirmed that he was right.

Three guards came in, and one by one they reported the betrayal of the local officials, who not only declared their independence from the Arab Empire, but also claimed to crusade against Malik and to kill the family.

"The Great Caliph, the Holy Land of Mecca has rebelled." Another guard was pale, without a trace of blood, as if he had been buried in the earth, with a look of horror on his face.

"What? Mecca rebelled? An exclamation sounded, and all the monarchs and ministers were directly stunned.

Mecca is a holy place for Muslims and is very important. However, not without enemies. The Prophet was once driven out by the ancestors of the Umayyad dynasty. Fortunately, there was also a member of the family who was a loyal follower of the Prophet and became one of the four caliphs.

This blow was too heavy, and the kings and ministers were directly petrified.

"Great caliph, big things are bad, big things are bad, there is a rebellion in Damascus."

"There are infidels everywhere, there are rebellious slaves everywhere, there are rebellious sinners everywhere."

At this moment, a group of guards rushed in, shouting and shouting, all of them frightened.

Damascus was the capital of the Arab Empire, where it had a large number of troops. However, in order to maintain the daily operation of the capital, a large number of coolies and slaves were required. When the news of the Tang army's westward march came, could these slaves and coolies not rebel?

After their rebellion, they plundered and killed the armies of the Arab Empire.

"Caliph, send troops to suppress it."

"Yes. If it cannot be suppressed, once the Chinese arrive, it will be unimaginable. ”

The ministers were busy reminding.

If these slaves and coolies were not suppressed, once the Tang army arrived, Damascus would be broken by the alliance. Damascus is very strong, but it can't stand the inside and the outside.

Not to mention, the combat strength of the Tang army is very good, Zhang said that he is resourceful, if he can take Gul, he will naturally be able to take Damascus.

"Quick, send troops to suppress it." Malik's face turned pale, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Whoever rebels, kill!" His family, relatives and friends, kill! ”

These are extraordinary times, and it is necessary to put down this rebellion as soon as possible by iron-blooded means.

As soon as the order was laid, a large number of Arab imperial troops were dispatched and began to suppress the rebellion.

What is unthinkable is that the more this rebellion is suppressed, the more chaotic it becomes, because the army's morale is unstable and the combat strength is gone, and it is no longer possible to suppress the rebellion.

Think about it, even the Holy Land of Mecca has rebelled, isn't it a heavy blow to the morale of the army?

It didn't take long for the Don army to arrive.

The rebels opened the gates of the city to greet them, and the Tang army swarmed in, officially announcing the end of the Arab Empire. r1152
