Chapter 640 The head that came to the door

The gongs and drums are noisy, the firecrackers are blasting, the red flags are waving, and there are huge crowds of people...

Such a welcome is of course grand.

It's a pity that there are none of these!

There was only a group of slaves driving cattle and sheep out of the village. Looking at the formation, it was not so much a battle as it was...

"Laojun!"

Everyone was dumbfounded, look at me, look at you, Wei Yunmei and others murmured in their hearts.

"Which play is this singing about?"

I came here to burn, kill, and loot, but you came here to reward the army?

If you do this, how can I be embarrassed to rob you?

Is it possible that you have calculated that China is a country of etiquette, and as long as you do this, I will not rob you?

Who says these natives are stupid?

Everyone is so smart!

"Could it be a scam?"

"Maybe?"

"What should we do?"

"If you don't chop off the head that was sent to you, I'd be sorry to God!"

But it only took a moment for everyone to reach a consensus. It's true that China is a country of etiquette, but there is another saying in China - when you go into town, do as the Romans do.

It still makes sense as the ancients said, when you are in the country, do as the Romans do.

You natives are treacherous. Of course, I can't follow any etiquette with you.

I must first deal with you in your native ways, and then I can teach you what the etiquette of the Celestial Empire is.

This is not what we said.

This is what Sage Kong said.

right!

That’s right, when dealing with someone, shouldn’t you first follow the other person’s habits and then pass on your own good habits to the other person?

Yes, it’s better to follow the teachings of Sage Confucius.



Ali, who came with dozens of domestic servants and slaves, of course had no idea that people were targeting his head. In his opinion, as long as he surrendered in front of these Ming people and said a few nice words, he would...

A few slaps on the ass.

I'm afraid they are all happy that they can't find the east, west, north, and south. As long as they take the initiative to withdraw their troops, they will be a great achievement in front of the Sultan, and then the city lord will be theirs.

This is so beautiful when I think about it.

Finally, after approaching the Ming army, three or four feet away, he shouted loudly.

"Ali Mahmed, a humble citizen of this country, respectfully welcomes the general of the Celestial Empire."

It's actually someone who can speak Chinese. Although he doesn't speak very authentically, it's really rare.

"Come here and talk."

Ali ran forward in a hurry. As soon as he arrived in front of the general of the Celestial Dynasty, Ali knelt down and spoke in stiff Chinese.

"I heard that the Celestial Army was coming, so I prepared cattle and sheep to reward the Celestial Army..."

Listening to what this man said there, Wei Yunmei hesitated. Should he kill this man or not?

Just as he was hesitating, a white light flashed before his eyes, and a column of blood spurted all over the floor, and Zhao Nianzong wiped the knife and said.

"Listen to what this man is saying. If you don't use his head as a token of surrender, there is no way these natives can be of the same mind as us!"

have to!

The head sent to the door must be taken.

"Kill them all!"

As soon as an order was given from here, the natives shouted and brandished their swords and slashed at the natives who were rewarding the army. However, within a moment, those natives who were stunned and didn't know what was going on were dead and missing.

In fact, these people did not die unjustly. Many of them were servants and confidants of Ali. Even if they were a few slaves, they could be trusted and they would be killed.

In fact, except for a few cities in this broken place, most of the residents in the so-called country are natives who cultivate slash-and-burn farming. Slavery is practiced in the villages of the natives. Even after Matalan conquered this place, it was just a wasteland.

The original leader was killed, and he became a slave owner. This place became his fiefdom.

Neither Matalan nor the Brahmin lords in the past had much control over the so-called places outside the city. They mainly relied on the leaders to govern themselves and collect a certain tribute every year.

If you want this place to stand firm, you have to kill the original leader and become a slave owner yourself, otherwise it will be a troublesome thing. When these people were killed, only a few slaves saw that something was not going well and headed towards the village.

Fleeed back.

"Kill him!"

Hundreds of natives wearing only single clothes swung their swords towards the village and killed them. The village had no defense. After all, the master had said that the Chinese army would not harm them.

Except for a few people in the village, the largest number are native slaves. They have no sense of resistance at all and simply accept the slavery submissively. When they hear the shouts of killing coming from outside the village, the most they can do is hide.

Afraid of harming the fish in the pond.

Because Ali took away all his cronies, in addition to the slaves, there were also a group of old, weak, women and children in the village, which totaled more than a hundred people, and many of them were half-grown children. Even if they screamed

"The heathen are coming!", and then tried their best to resist the attack of the natives, but generally the resistance they encountered was very weak.

"Set fire! Burn them to death!"

Seeing those people hiding in the temple, Zhao Nianzong said directly that everyone in the temple was on fire with a torch. At the same time, he led his subordinates to rush into the village to kill them.

For a time, the village was full of cries, and the slaves, women and children just ran away in all directions.

The massacre lasted for more than an hour. When it was all over, there were corpses everywhere under the blazing sun, and thousands of people were kneeling on their knees begging for mercy. Of course, many people escaped.

"Haha, I actually got a few horses!"

Zhao Nianzong laughed and said.

"This horse is really good, comparable to Liaodong horses!"

In fact, the Ma Dalan did not produce horses, but they purchased a lot of horses from Arabia and the Ottomans. Even the mercenaries from Osman who supported the Ma Dalan Army were even the secret of their rise——

Five hundred years ago, when they came here, they were just a group of maritime merchants from Arabia. They established a trading station at the port, then spread the Green Religion, and then occupied the magpie's nest and became the masters of this place, destroying the Hinduism here.

And Buddhist countries enslaved the natives here and forced them to change their beliefs.

In fact, speaking of it, as colonists, they arrived hundreds of years earlier than the Dutch, and then they became "indigenous".

Just like here, the differences between the natives can be clearly distinguished by their appearance. There are many women and children among them who have obvious Middle Eastern mixed ancestry. Their fathers may be Ottoman employees who came over in an unknown era.

Soldiers, people like Madalan are civilians, and those dark-skinned pagans are just slaves.

"It's a pity that someone took advantage of the chaos and ran away on horseback. Otherwise, we could have captured some more."

But after saying that, Zhao Nianzong smiled.

"What's the point of having a horse? I forgot that not many people can ride a horse."

Most of these sailors were from the south. They knew how to sail a boat and how to ride a horse, but not many of them knew how to do it. Even if they captured dozens of horses, it was just for show.

"Who says it's useless? Send these horses to Nantianmen. The Governor will definitely give you a heavy reward. These horses are high-quality horses, and they can be used as stallions when they are shipped back to the country."

When Wei Yunmei finished speaking, Sun Erqiang came over and said.

"Captain, we didn't find any gold or silver in the village, only grain, spices and the like were of some value."

Wei Yunmei smiled and said:

"We are not here to rob things. Things are dead and people are alive. As long as there are people and land here, and with land and people, we don't have to worry about money."

Wei Yunmei asked:

"What to do with the prisoners?"

After thinking about it, Zhao Niazong sneered:

"Keep the slaves, kill all the remaining men, let the slaves kill them, take all the women away, and send them to Surabaya. They can always be used in the future!"

Come in handy?

What is it used for?

It was nothing more than giving immigrants as wives and concubines. Even as scholars, after staying here for a long time, they were almost assimilated. Wei Yunmei had no objection to this. After killing the people, he gave half of the grain

They were all distributed to the slaves, and for a time there was joy in the village.

The natives were very happy, and naturally they were willing to help Akito. Even if they were still slaves, it depended on who they were slaves under.

They didn't even worry about the reinforcements sent by the sultan. According to the natives, it would take at least half a year for the sultan to get the news before sending troops.
