Chapter 788 Fifteen Years of Wind, Frost, Rain and Snow
"My brother, I finally waited for you to come back."
After crossing the Bodal Ridge, they successfully found the Zhenzhu River. After traveling down the river for only more than thirty miles, the team led by Yao Yuanfu and Guo Guangcheng encountered a small tribe.
But just when Yao Yuanfu was about to grab a few tongues, the small tribe looked at the cotton clothes they were wearing, and more than a dozen people rushed out.
One of them, a strong man with red skin, shouted to Guo Guangcheng in a proficient Tang accent.
Guo Guangcheng burst into tears. He recognized who the person was. He was his best brother and uncle, Chi Tian of the Gray Wolf Tribe.
Chi Tian hugged Guo Guangcheng, and the grown man cried so hard that his whole body trembled.
"Both Aweng and Aye died in the battle, and Uncle Jiu also died in the battle. Many of us died, all because of that beast Guo Guangyi."
Guo Guangcheng fell into unextricable sadness, but Yao Yuanfu was very vigilant.
There were at least hundreds of thousands of people around Suiye, and there were only two thousand of them. It had been more than ten years, and who knew whether his former best friend had changed his mind.
Taking advantage of Guo Guangcheng's sadness, Yao Yuanfu waved his hand, and the soldiers who had changed their armor quickly went to occupy various favorable positions with weapons in hand.
But when a Sanchen flag with a silver border was taken out by Yao Yuanfu's soldiers, everything changed.
Countless people with shabby clothes, even stained with dirt, and messy hair that hadn't been washed for who knows how long, ran over from all directions. They didn't hold weapons in their hands, but just stared blankly.
Looking at the Sanchen flag held in the hands of the soldier, he looked at the soldier's fine cloth-covered iron armor and his majestic body with envy, and he was amazed.
"Finally we meet the heavenly soldiers of the imperial court. They are even more majestic than the last time we came together in person."
"Mr. Sir, I heard that the saint who came to Suiye City has revived the great dynasty. Is this true? Does the saint remember me, Suiye people?"
"Erlang, Sanlang, come here quickly. This is the Sanchen Banner of the Tang Dynasty. These are the heavenly soldiers of the imperial court. Our ancestors were so majestic back then!"
Time flies by like a white horse.
In the past, Zhang Zhi went to Suiye and rediscovered the descendants of Guo Xingong, the king of Wuwei County. But at that time, Zhang Zhi was in Suiye for less than a year. Since then, he left with hundreds of the most elite men of the Guo family.
, and fifteen years have passed.
Fifteen years! Under the leadership of Guo Xuanli, the Guo family persisted for another fifteen years.
The young man who was praised by Zhang Gao back then is already in his thirties. Most of the athletes who worked bravely to fight off Samampos with Zhang Gao are now in their forties.
Forty years old, to later generations, is still in the prime of life, but in this windy and thick snow, in this era more than a thousand years ago, when productivity was not developed, forty years old means that one is about to be buried.
Objectively speaking, apart from those who followed Zhang Yan, Suiye and others did not enjoy much benefit from Zhang Yan.
The only thing Zhang Gao left for them was to defeat the Saman Persians and the Karakhanids, making these Tang survivors the nominal masters of Suiye and Talas.
Ke Suiye is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, which is a very scary distance. In addition, the population of the Central Plains itself is not rich. Apart from merchants, not many people from the Central Plains have reached Suiye in recent years.
Not to mention just a broad title like Tang'er, even if they are blood relatives, if they live far away and have less contact, there will be barriers.
In these fifteen years, Guo Xuanli also faced a huge problem.
He wanted to keep telling future generations, the next generation, the next generation, how prosperous and powerful the Tang Dynasty was, how rich it was, and how proud it was to be a Tang son.
But this is not easy, because what Guo Xuanli said is only recorded in books and exists in imagination.
The reality is that except for the Guo family and the few thousand people who are committed to the Tang Dynasty, there are more than 100,000 people in Suiye who live according to the way of the Uighurs and even the former Turks.
These thousands of people who live according to the customs of the Tang people, even if they can barely be considered the ruling class, have become aliens in the eyes of others. The so-called glory of the Tang Dynasty does not shine on them.
So when Guo Guangyi, who claimed that he wanted everyone to live in one way and established a great khanate, appeared, he naturally won the support of the vast majority of people.
After understanding this, it is not difficult to understand the value of these people in front of you. Even a cruel and cold-faced killer like Yao Yuanfu can't help but get hot in his eyes.
The rest of the soldiers couldn't help but be deeply shocked when they looked at these people who looked like savages and could still speak Tang Yin thousands of miles away. This kind of shock was something they couldn't feel at all in the Central Plains.
Guo Guangcheng suddenly wailed and cried out in pain. He understood why the Guo family didn't persist in the end. It was all because of him.
It was Guo Guangcheng who wrote to Guo Xuanli six or seven years ago, urging him to abandon Nestorianism.
Because at that time, Zhang Yan's identity as the Supreme Heaven continued to increase, especially when the Six Methods Sect began to take shape. Guo Guangcheng knew that if the Guo family continued to cling to Nestorianism, they would most likely be attacked by the Six Methods Sect in the future, and even Zhang Yan would not
Powerless to stop it.
Because Liufa Sect can tolerate the existence of other religions, but it will never allow the Nestorianism of the Guo family to exist.
You must know that the core of the Six Methods Sect is the Chinese culture of the Central Plains, such as Confucianism, Mohism, Dharma, and Yin and Yang. There are thousands of years of nutrients behind it to absorb. Once they completely put on the cloak of religion, their combat effectiveness will never be covered.
When the time comes, there will be theory, there will be swords, there will be a living god, who can stop him?
But the Nestorian religion of the Guo family is an anomaly because they practiced this way decades ago.
Under their reforms, in addition to Jesus, Suiye Nestorianism also worshiped gods such as Jingtong Dharma King and Amaha Great Heavenly Lord, and the narrative began to move closer to the Central Plains Wenhua.
For the Six Methods Sect, this is no longer an ordinary religion, but a heresy here to steal their jobs! You know, heresies are ten thousand times more hateful than Kafir.
So Guo Guangcheng wrote to Guo Xuanli, and Guo Xuanli also realized this problem and began to separate the Guo family from Nestorianism.
But this brought huge problems. In the past, the Guo family was able to gain a foothold in Suiye only through the protection of Nestorianism.
Now taking off the Nestorian clothes is equivalent to showing naked to others. At the same time, the "new clothes", that is, the culture of the Han people, have not arrived because Zhang Yan wants to pacify the Central Plains.
In the end, Guo Xuanli's body was still cold, and the rebellion started. Among Guo Xuanli's three sons and six grandchildren, only Guo Tianfang, who was holding Guo Guangcheng and crying bitterly, survived. The rest were killed. The Guo family and other people who were devoted to the Tang Dynasty were killed.
Thousands of people.
"Guo Guangyi, I swear to kill you!" Guo Guangcheng howled in pain.
"Did Guo Guangyi really say that there is no honor in being a Tanger, and it would be better to be a Uighur?" Yao Yuanfu asked Chitian through gritted teeth.
Chi Tian nodded, "That's what he said. Not only did he say it, he also burned all the books with Chinese characters in Suiye City. He also banned Tang Yin from being spoken and made everyone speak Uighur dialect."
"Tian Shenuan dares to betray his ancestors, I will definitely blow your head off!" Yao Yuanfu and the soldiers behind him had fire in their eyes. This was the first time they had passed the Yang Pass in so long.
Once I was angered.
Especially these soldiers, if it were in the past, they would not think that Tang'er's identity was very precious.
After all, the Central Plains has been in chaos for hundreds of years. There are not many barbarians who yearn for the Tang Dynasty, and there is no place to experience the nobility of the Chinese people.
Not to mention that among these people, there were also many Tuyuhun and Dangxiang people recruited by Yao Yuanfu in Shuofang.
But this time, they had just enjoyed the wonderful days in Anxi and Beiting where Miss Hu Ji gave money to them just to be reborn, and they were used to the extreme envy naturally shown by others when they looked at them with black heads and black eyes.
I visited the large temple built by Saint Zhang in Qiuci to commemorate the Anxi Army, and saw how respectful all the Hu people were to this temple.
The national pride in my heart has already exploded. Now when I suddenly hear these words, my lungs will explode with anger!
Without Yao Yuanfu taking action, several armored soldiers rushed over, grabbed Chitian and asked, "How many miles are there to Suiye City? How many armored soldiers are there in the city? Is there a way to sneak under the city smoothly?"
"There are still more than three hundred miles away from Suiye, and there should be six to seven hundred armored soldiers in the city."
"Damn it! Mr. Yao, let's go and kill that farm slave now."
Upon hearing that there were only six to seven hundred armored soldiers in Suiye City, the atmosphere immediately changed from one filled with indignation to one filled with fighting spirit.
I thought it was so awesome, but it turns out there are only six or seven hundred armored soldiers. Why don't you hurry up and destroy such a hated weakling?
They have gone from simply repaying the Holy Grace and not embarrassing General Hu to going to kill those bastards themselves.
However, Chi Tian's face showed a look of pain, "There is a way to sneak through, because our wife, children, and children are all detained in Broken Leaf City.
Guo Guangjie, Guo Guangyi’s younger brother, has already said that if I don’t go back, he will operate on our family members.”
Only now did Yao Yuanfu and Guo Guangcheng realize that in this mid-mountain camp, there were almost no figures of old, weak, women and children, and Chi Tian's sentence of being detained in Suiye City without knowing how much pain it contained.
What will happen to their wives, daughters and sisters if they are detained by people like Guo Guangyi is simply unimaginable. How uncomfortable it must be for a man who cannot protect his wife, children and children.
Guo Tianfang, who was in tears, looked at Guo Guangcheng, "Uncle Jiu told his nephew before he was hammered to death by Guo Guangjie, saying that our Guo family came from Broken Leaf from Bodaling. If the imperial army found that the ancient road was blocked, they would definitely
Will come this way.
Second uncle, you are finally here, we can take revenge!"
Uncle Jiu's name is Guo Xuanchao, and he is the next successor selected by the Guo family, so he also knows the situation of the Guo family clearly.
He knew that Guo Guangcheng would definitely take this secret path that the Guo family used to enter Suiye in the past.
Yao Yuanfu patted Guo Guangcheng on the shoulder, "Let's rest for a night, select five hundred warriors, and set off tomorrow. We can't let them die in vain!"
