It is said that although the Roman offensive was temporarily suspended, the discerning generals and lieutenants in the entire imperial army could see that it was just dusk before night, and the Romans were by no means truly retreating.
Once the escape route is cut off, next time... you won't be able to give up so easily. Life and death must be decided.
And Asmin was completely unbelievable when she heard Qin Qiong telling her to leave.
Although she had great admiration for the Tang Empire, she never expected that the famous general of the empire would let a foreign woman go first... Even though she was half a minister of the empire, she was a Persian after all, and her position was not
Not very tall, but far behind generals like Qin Qiong.
And this general actually let him go first?
Asmin's face was full of disbelief, but then she quickly shook her head and gritted her teeth and said, "General, I can't leave..."
"I...can't fail."
Asmin didn't explain what "cannot fail" means, and she didn't know how to explain it. To say... it would be a child without a mother. It's a long story.
In ancient times, this empire in the Far East was said to have produced an extremely powerful genius general, and what was more famous than that genius general was what he said... The enemy is still alive, do you want to marry me?
In the specific historical data, there is actually a young general who complained about his boss, "I haven't finished my KPIs yet, you draw a hammer pie with me... This kind of meaning, but it was remembered after all."
Now the same is true for Asmin. The situation in the Tang Dynasty is another matter. My situation is that if I can't make a difference in the Tang Dynasty, I will never mention returning to Persia in the future, correcting the evildoers, and reorganizing the country.
Already.
Besides... experience also told her that although those who drowned were those who could swim, those who were afraid of death always died the most on the battlefield. If you are afraid of death, you will not be able to win the battle, and if you are unable to win, you will die sooner or later.
But Qin Qiong just silently rejected Asmin's insistence and said only one sentence.
"You are much younger than this old guy like me, let's go."
"We Han people..."
"……That's it."
"..."
At this moment, Qin Qiong also gradually felt his fate. He would eventually be shrouded in horse hides. But for half his life in China, he had been slaying the heroes for His Majesty. But apart from that, what a warrior longed for most was to open up new territories.
To achieve Wei Huo's achievements. But at this moment...
It was also at this time that Qin Qiong suddenly realized that he seemed to be doing exactly what Wei Huo had done.
...If that's the case, then everything is acceptable.
When he was explaining his affairs to this Persian girl, Qin Qiong couldn't help but think of Huo Qubing's achievements in the past and a place called "Jiuquanyi". At that time, not long after the founding of the Han Dynasty, he always suffered losses in external battles, because no one could reach the desert.
unfamiliar.
But Huo Qubing never got lost, because although he beat the Huns harder than anyone else, he never discriminated against the Huns at the bottom, so there were always "spiritual Han people" working for him. In the end, Emperor Wu gave Huo Qubing the best that a warrior could get
The highest honor - Dahan.
Daman is a kind of wine, and it is also the first wine in China.
This thing is a gift from the emperor, something that even the queen would not dare to touch. You can imagine how high this honor is!
However, after Huo Qubing obtained Dachang, he did not enjoy it himself. Instead, he poured the Dachang wine into the spring water and drank it with his fellow soldiers, hence the name "Jiuquan".
And now...
Qin Qiong's face was filled with emotion. He didn't care about anything and wanted to call his own soldiers to send the girl away, but he had already realized something in his heart.
But at this moment, Asmin suddenly realized that something was wrong, and suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed behind Qin Qiong.
"Old...Old General, we have a boat!"
"..."
Qin Qiong glanced at the girl silently and just shook her head, "My child, you are an ant and you are still alive, so why do you have to die with an old man like me? I am a minister of the Tang Dynasty in my life, and I will be the cause of the Tang Dynasty in my death. You don't have to...
"
Qin Qiong thought that the child would be forced to stay, so she ignored him. But...
But gradually, he discovered that Asmin looked really surprised, so he continued...
Qin Qiong couldn't help but turned her head in surprise, and then...
He saw the most outrageous thing in his life.
A series of ships without sails and masts are speeding on the sea, breaking through the waves!
…
However, it is said that southern Africa first became known to the world because of the maritime trade promoted by the Tang Dynasty. Then, as the sea trade became more and more prosperous, the area became increasingly prosperous.
There are warehouses and commercial ports established by maritime merchants everywhere, which are extremely prosperous and full of vitality.
And then...
Also because the interests of various countries are constantly gathering, the armies of various countries are gradually setting their sights here... Surrounding the north of Africa and the east of the coastline, although the two paths seem to be prospering day by day, they are correspondingly
, and storms gradually gathered.
After Li Er from the court and Xiao Yu from Lingnan gradually received the information, Wang Jing, Pei Ji and others also gradually learned about the situation. And this time...
For Wang Jing and others, this is another good opportunity!
An opportunity to severely damage Li Er and... develop and grow again!
Because a group of children in the family are a bit hard to explain, the sea trade business is obviously not easy to do.
Of course, it's not impossible to do it. The Five Surnames and Seven Wangs have a great cause, and they can do whatever they want. But Wang Jing, Pei Ji and the others are the heads of the family after all, so they know that some things are not that simple...
When compared with people like Li Sheng and Wei Ziyu, disciples like Zheng Ling and Lu Wen are...
That is, no matter how tough-talking Wang Jing, Pei Ji and others are, they dare not compare with the latter...
But that's not important. What's important is that these young men are pretty good. At least they can handle some maritime trade business when there are no unexpected situations, and that's enough.
But this is not important. The most important thing is that children like Zheng Ling and Lu Wen are at an average level among the large group of Five Surnames and Seven Hopes...
Therefore, the problem of how to survive and grow the family business is difficult to deal with. Because even talents of Zheng Ling and Lu Wen's level can excel, and the ones behind this... although they are not very willing, no, to be precise, although they are extremely reluctant
, but Wang Jing, Pei Ji and others also felt worried when they communicated privately... Of course, there was not much communication, or basically no communication at all.
Because there is no need for communication, it is a consensus that has been established for a long time. To put it bluntly, this is also the main reason why Wang Jing and others are so obsessed with hoarding land and collecting rent, because it is so easy and enjoyable.
But life cannot rely on happiness, so Wang Jing and others soon realized that they had to find a way out...
