Chapter 244: Descendants of the Anxi Army
"Yes, we are the descendants of the Anxi Army. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info God, God opened his eyes, I didn't expect that in this barbarian land, I could see the people of my homeland with my own eyes! Looking at his tearful expression, Jiang Ning could not understand this special emotion, but he could feel the joy in their hearts.
"This is not the place to talk!"
A few cold flashes of light flashed, and the shackles that bound their freedom were cut in an instant.
At this time, the Arab soldiers stationed in the city also quickly arrived and surrounded them. Facing the nervous descendants of the Anxi Army, Jiang Ning's eyes were cold, the bright silver light was flourishing, and death was pervasive, and all the soldiers were like dominoes in an instant, falling to the ground and dying.
"My dear... This..."Elizabeth came over at this time, and as soon as she came here, she saw Jiang Ning ruthlessly killing dozens of people.
"Take me to where you live!"
"Yes, Engong, please."
……
"This is where you live?"
Looking at the piles of simple shacks, the surrounding environment is dirty and messy, and the places where people live are also mixed with cattle, sheep and livestock. Each of them, wearing heavy shackles, was surrounded by a ring of fences, and there were guards on the handles.
After eliminating these soldiers, Jiang Ning was respectfully welcomed into the residence by the descendants of the Anxi Army he rescued.
"Engong, the residence is too dirty, and I neglect Engong." The old man looked at Jiang Ning apologetically.
"It doesn't matter!"
In the eyes, the bright silver brilliance was great, and everyone's shackles were instantly broken into two sections.
There were about 2,000 men, women, and children who lived in the slave sheds, and all of them were ragged and emaciated. Everyone's face was filled with despair, and they no longer had hope for the future.
Once you are a slave, not only yourself, but also your descendants are all slaves.
For Jiang Ning's magical power, their eyes finally changed, and they were filled with a new emotion, which was called hope.
"Engong, are you an immortal?"
"I'm not!"
Although I was a little disappointed, I was still excited about Jiang Ning's arrival. At the call of the old man, more than 2,000 men, women, and children gathered in an open space and looked at Jiang Ning.
The man who was rescued by Jiang Ning on the street also kept talking about Jiang Ning to the surrounding crowd. Including rescuing them and killing dozens of Arab soldiers, they also said it. The crowd of onlookers was extremely grateful for Jiang Ning's actions, and they looked at Jiang Ning with anticipation.
"Tell me about your situation! In the entire Great Food Country, how many Tang people are there? ”
"Yes, Eun Gong."
Then the old man told them where they came from. Since it is a descendant of the Anxi Army, it must be related to the battle of Heng Rus between the Tang Dynasty and the Arab Empire.
Both sides were at their strongest, and both were stationed in Central Asia in order to compete for Central Asia. Facing the invasion of the Arabs, tens of thousands of Anxi troops led by the famous general Gao Xianzhi faced the Arab army, which was several times their enemy.
As a result, Gao Xianzhi was defeated! The Anxi army was elite and suffered heavy losses, coupled with inconvenient supplies. The Tang Dynasty also abandoned Central Asia, and the whole of Central Asia was dyed green from then on.
The Tang people who lived there and the captured Anxi army were all degraded as slaves by the Arabs. Or, force you to believe in their Islam or die.
"You're also intermarrying with the locals?" Looking at the crowd of onlookers, there were obviously many people whose faces had changed, Jiang Ning asked.
The old man sighed and said helplessly: "As a slave, how can you intermarry with a free man?" They were all born by intermarriage with Yi women who were also slaves, but they still could not escape the status of slaves. ”
Suddenly remembered something, and was nervous: "Engong, although their appearance has changed, they still have my Tang blood and learn my Chinese culture." Even as a slave, I swore to the death that I would not convert to their teachings. ”
"Chinese culture? The original prisoners of the Anxi Army, as well as the captive Tang people, there were also scholars? ”
"Yes, there are also many sons and daughters of powerful people in the Anxi army who came to gild." The old man nodded in acknowledgement.
Jiang Ning was stunned, this made sense.
At the beginning, the Anxi Army and the Tang Dynasty, one was the elite of the elite, and the other was in its heyday. It is estimated that many powerful children regarded this duel with Da Shi as a gold-plated road. Unexpectedly, tens of thousands of elite Anxi troops were defeated. Although the casualties of giving the big food are also very large, it does not damage the root of the big food.
The Anxi Army, through this battle, lost its elite, and the Tang Dynasty also turned from prosperity to decline.
As for why Da Shi didn't take the opportunity to move eastward, it is estimated that he was also frightened by tens of thousands of expeditionary forces. In their opinion, tens of thousands of people faced an enemy several times larger, and although they were defeated, they also brought heavy casualties. In the face of Datang, who doesn't know the depth and doesn't understand the bottom line, Dashi also accepted it when it saw it and did not make further provocations.
"Since I inherit my Chinese culture and have the blood of my Han family and Miao descendants, it is naturally my Han people!"
"Thank you for your understanding!"
"Do you know how many descendants of the Anxi Army are scattered in the Great Eclipse?" Jiang Ning asked.
The old man hesitated and said, "I don't know this, but I know that there are still a thousand people who are slaves in the city of Joppa." As for how many flesh and blood compatriots are in other places, I don't know. ”
Jiang Ning nodded and said, "Later, I will send you to a place where you can wait in peace." ”
The old man said excitedly: "Engong, can we still return to our homeland?" I don't know, how is Datang now. ”
"The old country?" Shaking his head and sighing: "I'm afraid I can't go back, Datang is already dead." And the original Battle of Hengros has been almost 200 years now. The Central Plains has already entered a troubled era now, and it has not yet been reunified, even if you wait to go back. There is no good result, so it is better for me to find another country for you to multiply and settle. ”
"Datang, ah!!"
More than 2,000 people heard the bad news, knelt down in front of the east, and wept for the Tang Dynasty. Although generations have passed, they have speculations in their hearts, but they are far less shocking than hearing with their own ears that they are coming.
"My home is gone, and I can't go back. In this barbarian land, even if you die, you are a lonely ghost! ”
More than 2,000 people wept bitterly, and the sound of weeping resounded throughout the heavens and the earth.
At this time, a series of fires rose into the sky and attacked the shack.
With a wand in his hand, he waved violently, and a bright silver cover was erected out of thin air, firmly guarding. The flames attacked, and there was nothing to do about this bright silver cover.
More than 2,000 people were terrified, but they felt relieved to see such a magical scene.
"Hmph, wizard!"
The body soared into the air and looked down.
In the clearing below, a dozen local wizards stood, along with some troops. After seeing Jiang Ning's figure, the archers instantly shot out a dense rain of arrows.
How can an ordinary mortal weapon hurt Jiang Ning? He didn't move, and the rain of arrows within three feet of his body turned into powder. From Jiang Ning's body, black smoke suddenly burst out, like a poisonous snake, winding towards the dozen wizards and the army below. A few wizards took the opportunity to dodge, and the rest of the wizards who didn't dodge still had the army, and their bodies were pulled apart in an instant.
“%¥#&&”
I didn't bother to pay attention, and I didn't bother to listen to what those wizards said. Waves of remnant green light struck quickly, and the remaining wizards didn't have time to dodge before they died in an instant.
……
"I can't stay here, I'll take you to a safe place." Looking at the crowd who had already been stunned by his methods, Jiang Ning turned to them and said.
"Yes, everything is up to Eun Gong!"
More than 2,000 Tang slaves, packing up their clothes, cattle, sheep and livestock, followed Jiang Ning's footsteps and left here.
