The messenger looked and saw a young man who did not speak well, dressed in a wide black robe, wearing leather armor, shoulders and leather boots, holding a whip in his hand, and striking it in his palm from time to time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Is it he who overthrew the entire Abbasid dynasty? The messenger said secretly in his heart.

Although shocked by the youth of this Tang leader, the envoy still spoke: "I salute you on behalf of the great caliph, noble Tang leader!" ”

"Tell me, what did your caliph call you for?" Regarding the thoughts of the Fatimid Dynasty, Jiang Ning guessed a little at the moment, and a smile was outlined on the corner of his mouth.

"The Caliph has ordered me to bring you some gifts! By the way, I would like to ask you for the purpose of your ministry's coming here. After the messenger finished speaking, the knights beside him gave a signal in time, and then Jiang Ning saw a huge convoy full of valuable gifts, slowly coming.

After the convoy arrived, Jiang Ning casually checked some of them and found that most of these gifts were some food and luxury goods, such as precious gems, diamonds, high-grade furs and even a few lions!

"I have accepted the gift of your caliphate. In addition, I am satisfied with the Caliph who told you that we have come here only as an excuse, and do not covet his land, so that he can rest assured! ”

After successfully finding out the exact news, the messenger secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, with joy: "I will truthfully convey your request." ”

"Also..."

The messenger's heart, which had just fallen, instantly rose to his throat again, and he said uneasily, "Do you have any other requests?" ”

Jiang Ning said with a smile: "I need a batch of transport ships, and I would like to ask your caliph to borrow a batch of ships to transport personnel and supplies!" Go to Sardinia opposite! Oh, by the way, I heard that in the opposite island of Sardinia, there are also a lot of big cannibals, right? ”

The messenger said: "It is true, but since you have your sights on the island, our caliph will be happy to give it to you." As for the residents who live on it, we will bring it with you on the return trip, so you won't have to worry about it. ”

"That's the best, and I'll bother you to tell your caliph."

"It should."

When the envoy got the exact information, as if he was afraid that Jiang Ning would regret it, he said a word and immediately led his entourage to the country.

……

When the Fatimids received the news, the contemporary caliph al-Mansur was pleasantly surprised, but only paid for some insignificant things. You will be able to find out the news you want to know the most, since this group of Tang people is not here, just borrowing some sea ships to go to Sardinia by the way. And how could Mansour disagree?

What he wants to do most at the moment is to send this gang of unprovoked uncles away as soon as possible. The farther away from your own land, the better, you can go anywhere, and it is better not to stay in your own land.

Mansour still understands the truth that changes later.

Therefore, he immediately gathered the ships of the whole country and stayed in the capital to requisition! Not only that, but also a lot of new sea vessels, to do their best to meet the requirements put forward by Jiangning.

He was afraid that if he was not careful, the other party would look at his land.

……

The Fatimid Dynasty's big moves and tense atmosphere, Jiang Ning did not know, led a migration of more than 300,000 people. Along the way, I slowly rushed towards Tunisia.

After this great migration, the bodies of the Tang people, who were thin and malnourished earlier, strengthened at a visible rate almost every day. Today's Tang people, with strong and strong bodies, are completely the best soldiers.

The sound of people talking to each other, the cries of livestock, and the sound of vehicles moving along the way. In this semi-arid land, the echoes are endless.

At night, a team of more than 300,000 people camped in an orderly manner! During this time, everyone's spirits were full and high. Everyone is looking forward to their future life. And the Jews who were mixed in the ranks of the Tang people had a very good time during this time. The Tang people did not discriminate against them because of their status, they were completely benign. Let these more than 10,000 Jews who help the old and the young be grateful.

Jiang Ning, on the other hand, was in the tent, writing and compiling some books.

Regarding this kind of construction game, Jiang Ning is always full of interest. Moreover, it's not a game, it's real. And, he was personally involved.

Every time I encounter this kind of passion, which is busy but full of enthusiasm.

I have to say that this live-action version of the constructive game is quite fun.

……

A contingent of more than 300,000 men, after a night of recuperation, at about 4 o'clock, set out camp one after another, rushing into the dark night, carrying torches and continuing to march towards Tunisia.

The weather in North Africa is unbearably hot during the day, especially at noon. In hot weather, people always lose more water. Therefore, before the sun rises, rushing in the cool weather is undoubtedly a more energy-saving way.

Finally, near noon, the migratory party entered the territory of the Fatimids.

The army guarding the border has long been informed. Almost as soon as the Tang people appeared on the border, they were seen by the Fatimid army.

Therefore, the soldiers did as Caliph al-Mansur commanded. He didn't dare to make any drastic moves, but respectfully led them to the port where the ship docked.

The team did not stop at all, and made its way north to the Fatimid capital, Mahdia.

Here, the Fatimids mobilized all their forces and gathered about 10,000 transports, many of which were newly built. Although it is a one-time event, it is impossible to transport all of these more than 300,000 people, so it can only be transported in batches.

When the team arrived in Mahdia, Jiang Ning was disappointed when they looked at the boats anchored in the harbor. These transport ships are not large at all, have limited tonnage, and are short, transporting at most a few dozen people at a time. However, there were more than 300,000 people under Jiang Ning's command, not to mention the materials he carried, as well as cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock.

These 10,000 small boats can't transport many people at all, let alone a larger amount of supplies!

"My dear, these ships are so small, we have more than 300,000 people! And countless supplies, just with these small boats, when will they arrive in Sardinia? ”

Jiang Ning was also very dissatisfied, but with the current technology, the whole of Europe and the Arabs could not build too large sea ships. This kind of one-time ship, which can only transport a few dozen people, is not of much use at all.

"There's no way, I'm still on my own."

Riding on a horse, he slowly walked towards the docks. The team of more than 300,000 people under his command followed closely step by step.

"Have your caliph send some giant logs and pile them up by the harbor!" The horsewhip pointed at the official standing on one side, and commanded proudly.

"Yes!"

Then the official got on his horse and ran towards the palace.

Jiang Ning waited for about an hour, and then saw teams of people, carrying a big log, walking towards the port. Later, the shirtless men piled up one log after another in the open space that had been specially cleared by the side of the port. Just transporting it back and forth and stacking the wood wasted days.

"Let all these sailors and captains who are still on the ship come out."

Although I don't understand what Jiang Ning means by letting the sailor and the captain come out. However, the officials still complied with Jiang Ning's wishes and notified the sailors and captains who were still on the ship. These captains, holding their stomachs sulking, were requisitioned by the caliph to transport people. Who knew that such a large number of people would come to the port, counting the materials and gold and silver carried, these are immeasurable wealth!

It's just that although they have a thief's heart, they don't have the corresponding guts.

This gang of Tang people is not easy to mess with, and it has long been known to the world. I didn't see that these heavily armed Tang people came to the capital of the dynasty, even the caliph didn't care about it, and even had to obey the Tang people's orders respectfully. Merchants are very shrewd, and naturally they dare not offend the Tang people who are now in full swing.

Subsequently, the scene that appeared in front of them opened the eyes of countless people again!
