Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 931
After Liumu's banquet was over, Wood gave a military salute of the Tang Dynasty, took his subordinates to patrol the camp, and then arranged for combat operations to wipe out the wounded beasts.

In the evening, Wood Barracks.

"General, you made a slip of the tongue just now. It's not good for us as slaves and masters to say our word."

Someone reminded Wood of his mistake just now.

Wood patted his head: "I forgot that I was still a slave."

It's not funny, it's even sad.

At this moment, Xi Junmai came in suddenly. Xi Junmai was escorting Liu Ruyu to check the accounts, and after sending Liu Ruyu here, Liu Mu arranged for him to come here.

Xi Junmai's Greek is very poor, so he specially brought a translator.

"I am now a general leading five thousand troops. Seven years ago, I was a military slave. That is, a slave in the army as a handyman, and then I became a soldier in the army who charged forward."

"Why?" Wood couldn't figure it out. After becoming a slave, military merit should belong to the master.

At least in Rome.

"I will give you a book. I came here specially to give you this book. You will be able to read it after you slowly learn Chinese. The name of this book is, From Riding Slave to General A famous general years ago, he won seven battles against the Huns."

When it comes to the Huns, Wood knows.

It can be said that the demise of the Western Roman Empire had something to do with the Huns. Wood’s ancestors also fought against the Huns. The power of the Huns, the term Huns has scared the whole of Europe for many years.

From riding slaves to great generals.

That night, the two marching commanders in Wood's camp were tasked with recording the military exploits of Wood's unit and teaching Chinese in peacetime.

The two marching commanders took this book and began to tell the story in ancient Greek and Chinese.

Chinese is the most difficult language to speak, not one of them.

Wood and the thousands of slaves studied very hard. Except for a very small number of people, most of them are still studying hard. Only after learning Chinese can they have the opportunity to go to Chang'an and have the opportunity to be relieved of their slave status.

In the cabin by the sea, Dugu Lanruo asked Liu Mu: "Husband, tell me who these slaves belong to?"

"I bought it with the money from the treasury, and it belongs to Datang. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, they are slaves of the imperial court, so..." Liu Mu stopped here.

Dugu Lanruo understood what Liu Mu meant.

It is said that they are slaves. In fact, as long as these people remain loyal, they are no different from ordinary people. If they have different opinions, then slaves are slaves, and the court will definitely deal with them severely and strictly.

"Madam, how about going hunting?"

"It's better to go watch the fish."

Compared with fighting and killing, Dugu Lanruo prefers this kind of quiet activity.

Liu Mu doesn't quite understand what's so good about fish, and it takes a long time to sit by the water and watch the fish. Isn't this a waste of time?

Now that Dugu Lanruo has made a choice, Liu Mu will naturally be by her side.

I heard that I was going to watch the fish, and I was looking forward to holding the piano. Xiao Linger specially arranged for the fish watching and spent two days preparing.

Fish is not a fish. Watching fish is a very elegant activity for the noble women of Tang Dynasty.

Koi can be said to have been discovered by Tang people.

On a small island reef off the coast of East Africa, the clear sea water can be seen as deep as two meters deep. There are countless schools of colorful fish, and occasionally a fierce big fish swims by.

Xie Xing'er wrote a poem on the spot and received numerous compliments.

Liu Mu was enjoying the peace leisurely with his family on the coast of East Africa. In the city of Constantine in Rome, Li Daozong, who had only slept for less than two hours in three days, was having a new round of talks with Heraclius.

Li Daozong spent three days and three nights studying the current battle situation. He said to Heraclius: "Believe me, retreat in an all-round way and clear the field."

"What is a strong wall to clear the field? Well, let's put it another way. At present, the Arabian Saracen Kingdom is powerful, and the soldiers of Rome and Persia Sassan have not undergone strict training. They are excellent soldiers, but they are not well trained. If you fight, you will not be able to exert your combat effectiveness at all.”

"I agree." As an excellent commander, Heraclius understands the current problems of the legion without Li Daozong telling him.

Liumu's slave soldiers trained day and night for three months.

His soldiers did not carry out targeted training after getting the equipment. The Roman generals only saw the excellent equipment, but forgot that the excellent equipment required some coordination and use to exert its greatest strength.

Excessive battle damage caused them to lose some soldiers and some Tang army equipment.

Li Daozong continued: "The next response is to strengthen the city defense, take the city as the defense center, evacuate everything outside the city, transfer all civilians to the city, and burn everything that cannot be moved outside the city. Let the Arabs Soldiers of the Kingdom of Saracen don’t get any loot or anything useful.”

Heraclius' eyes lit up: "Great doctrine, then I will place the five thousand heavy cavalry in my hand who has received five months of training in the city on the second line. Once the enemy bypasses the fortress, the heavy cavalry The cavalry can intercept and retreat, and grab the supplies."

"No, no. The great Emperor Heraclius, you need to send fast light cavalry to rob the luggage, and leave as soon as you finish the robbing, to avoid fighting below...

After discussing for a full afternoon, Li Daozong fell into the carriage after leaving the emperor.

He is exhausted.

After the carriage sent Li Daozong back to his resting place, Li Daozong said to the people around him: "Send someone to tell Jiang Ke, let him analyze the possibility of attacking that canyon, and then send someone to tell Liu Mu, and there is more. Order, Let the generals have to train the Roman and Persian armies within three months, and our business is already being affected."

"Yes!"

Soon, Liu Mu received letters from Li Daozong and Jiang Ke.

Liu Mu called Baoqin, and wrote a letter to Baoqin to arrange for people to be sent back to the south of the Yangtze River with the fleet.Ask Dugu Shura to bring his fleet over, and then arrest Arab merchants throughout the Tang Dynasty. There is only one reason. Their country attacked our Datang caravan in the Red Sea, and they are enemies.

After the letter was sent, Willow left Spice Bay and headed north.

In the port of Djibouti, Liu Mu met Lao Lang and others.

There are a few more guests.

"More than 100 years ago, we were here. We owned thousands of camels, hundreds of ships of all kinds, and more than 3 men with knives. The Red Sea is not the Red Sea of ​​Eastern Rome, but also our Red Sea."

The person named Qulaisi relied on the convenience of the Red Sea and the oasis they controlled to transport spices, leather, medicines, slaves, etc. from North Africa and the Far East to Damascus.There are also weapons, grain, and wine shipped to various parts of the Arabian Peninsula.

Liu Mu only glanced at the visitor, and said something that could directly trigger a war: "I am a nobleman, and I don't talk to dogs or lowly slaves."
