sweeping the world

Chapter 863
"The Han army on the opposite side has about [-] people." Shamil Maliao Saker Khan is a nobleman in the north and a Kshatriya who has enough voice in the current camp: "The Han people did not drive out as many people as we expected. Huge slave army to the battlefield."

It is rumored that the Saker Khan family was a huge family during the Guishuang Empire, and it was also a family based on military exploits.

Contradictions between the north and the south often occurred in the Guishuang Empire. Whenever the conflict could not be resolved by verbal arguments, the only way was to dispatch troops to fight each other. Usually, the nobles in the north could teach the nobles in the south how to behave, but the nobles in the south Never convinced.

It's all because the nobles in the south are ruled by the navy, and the army in the north can teach the army in the south to be a man on land, but if the battlefield is changed to the sea, the navy in the south will teach the landlubbers in the north to be a man.

Entering the period of the Gupta Dynasty, the country still had deep conflicts between the north and the south, but the conflict no longer had the thorn of the nation.

During the period of the Guishuang Empire, the nobles in the north were dominated by the Yuezhi people, and the conquered Xindu people in the south, and there were many ethnic minorities in the north and south.

The Gupta Dynasty is also a multi-ethnic country, but the various ethnic groups are no longer divided by agglomeration, they are scattered and mixed, and they are no longer clearly divided into ethnic groups. They are based on Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya, Sudra, and untouchables. Treat differently.

Naturally, a country will not be short of large and small conflicts. Ethnic antagonism is the most serious contradiction. Usually, conflicts in the form of ethnic groups are the most likely to stir up sensitive nerves. Once someone takes the lead, it will be a large-scale conflict between ethnic groups. .

The three generations of monarchs of the Gupta Dynasty have been downplaying national concepts and trying their best to support the rise of religions. For the continent of Xindu, it can be said that they are very clever in terms of means.

The current conflict between the north and the south of the Gupta Dynasty is mainly due to the gap between the rich and the poor.

Because the south is close to the sea, the Gupta Dynasty strongly encouraged sea trade, and of course the south will be economically prosperous.

The environment in the northern part of the Gupta Dynasty was actually not bad. The existence of the two long rivers, the Ganges and the Indus, allowed farming in most areas to have no shortage of water. In terms of food production, it can be said that it can not only supply the consumption of the entire country, but even export a large share of it to the outside world. .

The work of a family with their backs to the loess and their faces to the sky is not as good as the profits generated by a businessman’s business transaction. No matter which country or nationality, the same reason happened in the Gupta Dynasty. In addition, the nobles in the south continued to show off their wealth, and the north is naturally I feel out of balance.

Samudragupta's control over the country cannot be said to be very strong, at least it is not inferior to the central control over local areas during the Kushan Empire, and is better than Srigupta (his grandfather) and Chandragupta (his father, Founder of the Dynasty) period, but he still could not get the nobles in the north to unite to rescue the south at all costs when he thought it was necessary.

Shamir was talking about the slave army, and the faces of the southern nobles in the military tent became quite ugly.

In the camp, the number of southern nobles is far less than that of nobles from other places. It can be said that the southern part of the Gupta Dynasty fell completely. Most of the southern nobles chose Han Chinese as their fathers on the premise that they could not take away their property. In the land, only a small number of ambitious nobles chose to flee with the property they could bring.

Too many southern nobles choose to be good sons of Han fathers. Some of their actions have been spread to unoccupied areas, and their living conditions have naturally spread to the past. People who are not in the south are naturally despised and ridiculed. Those who escaped from the south were in extremely complicated moods.

"The Han people didn't exterminate them, nor did they confiscate their property." Zapt Warren sat among a group of southern nobles and lowered his voice: "I heard that the Han people are still willing to spend money?"

Zampute Warren was captured twice by the Han army, and both times he spent money to redeem his freedom.It was precisely because of his personal experience of witnessing the powerful combat power of the Han army that he concluded after returning for the last time that the Gupta dynasty could not defeat the Han Dynasty. He did not know what kind of psychological emotions he had out of which he disposed of the family's property in the south. The family began to move north.

On the other side, Shamir continued to talk with eloquence, to the effect that the Han Chinese had repeatedly won victories on the battlefield, but the Han Chinese fought against the southerners, and the northerners had yet to show their true strength to fight the Han.

In the past, if there were northerners who kept belittling southerners on such occasions, it would be inevitable that southerners would jump out and choke, and the abuse would develop in the direction of wealth, and then the northerners would be sprayed speechless.

Now the northerners can complain as much as they want. Whether they can recover the territory occupied by the Han army in the south depends on the northern army. No southerner will stand up to refute. The northerners who were oppressed in the past took advantage of this The opportunity came out of the stuffiness in my chest.

"So, the Han people also know the incompetence of the southerners, and they are not even willing to let them go to the battlefield to consume our arrows and strength." Shamir was very happy, and liked that the southerners were obviously unwilling to listen and dared not refute , can only sulk: "We have assembled an army of 30, and there are reinforcements coming from all over the country. And our subordinate countries, they know that they cannot let the Han people gain a firm foothold in this land, and they are mobilizing Troops and supplies are coming to support!"

The Gupta Dynasty had many vassal states, and its control over those vassal states was also very strong.At present, the kings of those vassal states are in Fahrenheit City (the capital of the Gupta Dynasty), and will come to the main battlefield with Samadragupta in the follow-up.

"This time, we will gather 100 million soldiers!" Shamir said more and more excitedly: "If the Han people don't retreat to the coast in time and roll back in despair, they are destined to be wiped out on land by us. We wiped out the invasion The Han people will burn the flames of war to the land of the Han people!"

The excited Shamir's passionate speech aroused more excitement, and there were constant clamors in the military tent, basically to let the Han people see how powerful they are, and to burn the flames of war to the mainland of Han, Barabara, a big heap.

If they could really wipe out the expeditionary Han army and regain the lost ground, and rebuilt the ships in a few years, the Gupta Dynasty would really be the only country in the world capable of bringing the war to the mainland of Han from the sea.

The southern nobles in the military tent sat obediently in their positions, one after another looking at them in a daze.

Once upon a time, the southerners regarded the northerners as a bunch of poor people. When there were countless conflicts, the southern nobles would always wear golden clothes and look at them quietly with contempt or contempt. Anyway, no matter how the northern nobles danced It's usually a sentence "I'm richer than you" that can shut up the northern nobles.

Not now, the southern aristocrats who escaped could not bring all their property. During the war, it was not a simple matter of who had money, but how many warriors and untouchables could be recruited.

Zampter Warren's face was the same as that of all southern nobles, showing resentment amid humiliation, but there was something slightly wrong in his eyes, and there was no deep-seated peace of mind at all. On the contrary, it could be seen that there was an inexplicable sarcasm.

"We saw the flags of the Romans and Persians in the Han camp." Shamir said that this situation was only discovered yesterday, and he scolded: "The Romans abandoned their decades-long friendship with us. They are A bunch of betrayers without any faith or morality!"

Shamil had good reason for scolding the Romans.

The maritime trade between the Gupta Dynasty and Rome was very frequent, and they even discussed the possibility of forming an alliance with each other. Although they did not become comprehensive allies in the end, the Gupta Dynasty has been providing Roman weapons and armor at cheap prices.

Originating from the desire for expansion shown by the Persian Sasanian in recent years, the Gupta Dynasty and Rome also reached a consensus on targeting the Persian Sasanian. On several occasions, the Gupta Dynasty’s navy also helped the Romans contain the Persian Sassanian water power.

"When we needed friendship the most, the Romans chose to stab us hard!" Shamir said this and looked at the listless southern nobles: "You are a bunch of idiots, you have always been. "

The nobles in the south must bear this blame. The diplomacy between the Gupta Dynasty and Rome has always been dominated by them. The friendship with Rome is the main reason why the Persian Sasanian is hostile to the Gupta Dynasty.

Thinking in a larger and deeper direction, the Han Chinese explored the sea and wiped out the power of the Gupta Dynasty in Southeast Asia. The Han people began to enter the Eritrean Sea through Malacca, which is also due to the Persians. Does it mean that the Han Dynasty broke out with the Gupta Dynasty? There are also Persians shadow?
Under Shamir's furious spray, the southern nobles chose to keep their heads down and say nothing.

"Those nobles who are dogs to the Han people must be liquidated after the war!" Shamir firmly believed that this war would end with their final victory: "You also need to pay the price!"

"Respected Saker Khan." Zapt Warren raised his head slightly, and slowly stretched out his arms: "I am willing to pay the due price for my mistakes."

With Zapt Warren taking the lead, a few southern nobles also expressed their views one after another.

Shamir looked at the rest of the southern nobles who did not move, and then his eyes fell on Zaput Warren again: "The Hualun family is a family worthy of respect. Although you have repeatedly failed in the contest with the Han people, you have not lost your heart." The heart to fight."

Zampute Warren appropriately showed a bitter expression, lowered his head and gritted his teeth. Although Shamir's words were compliments, they were too uncomfortable to listen to.

"There is a saying of the Han people that is very correct." Shamil recalled it carefully: "Know your shame and be brave. This is the saying. It is not enough for you to recover. You should take real actions."

Zaput Warren looked up again, with the same bitter expression: "The Warren family will give out [-] 'keshere'."

Kesher is the name of Ah San's coin, and what Kesher refers to is weight, not the type of metal.

Shamir looked at the rest of the southern nobles. He said so much "Balabala" to blackmail the remaining value of the southern nobles!
