Datang: Picking up a little Si Zi and accidentally admitting his kinship with blood?
Chapter 401 The Persian envoy’s worries!
Chapter 401 The Persian envoy’s worries!
The Harsha dynasty fell and the upper class was purged.
However, the most distributed and widely distributed are the slaves at the bottom, the Sudras.
Once upon a time, they could be bought and sold at will, disposed of at will, and even killed in the street.
As long as the other party is of the same level, there is no possibility of violating the law.
Moreover, they have become accustomed to this way of life.
I am confused and don't know the future, and occasionally I just think that I was born in the wrong child.
If you can be a Brahmin, no, a Kshatriya in your next life, everything will change.
Under the original caste system, all efforts were in vain!
However, just yesterday, the Tang army came to kill them.
Not only were the dynasty forces destroyed, but almost all the nobles were wiped out!
This makes the people at the bottom panic and confused about the future.
The Tang Empire, I heard, was an extremely powerful and vast empire!
Fellow slaves who escaped to the Tang Dynasty sent letters back and talked about the Tang Dynasty. How wonderful it was!
Although there hasn't been much improvement, it doesn't have to be as scary as it was during the Harsha Dynasty.
However, this morning, a notice was posted outside the gate of Qunu City.
The notices were all written in ancient Chinese characters of the Tang Dynasty. At this moment, there were several guards in armor in front of the city gate.
Yang Shidao specially selected a few subordinates who were proficient in the ancient sayings of the Harsha Dynasty and asked them to stay in Qunv City to assist the national master in handling the next matters.
At this moment, a guard pointed at the notice on the city gate and said loudly: "From today on, you are the people of the Tang Empire, no longer slaves!"
This was said in the local ancient language, which immediately made most of the Sudras and a small number of Vaishyas who were watching look blank.
"Huh? Not a slave anymore?"
"Then what are we? Are you going to drive us somewhere else?"
"I...I can work,...just...you just need to be able to eat enough..."
"Please, sir, give us a way to survive..."
After reacting, these humble slaves all panicked.
Where can they go?
do not know.
The guard looked at the crowd below, sighed slightly, and somehow felt a sense of pride in his heart.
The Tang Empire, although such things had happened before.
But after His Majesty ascended the throne and the imperial master destroyed the five surnames, Qiwang and other aristocratic families, this situation rarely happened anymore.
Especially the appearance of potatoes made famines no longer occur in the Tang Dynasty, and remote areas began to become rich!
All this is due to the national master!
And now, the Imperial Master has canceled the slave status of these poor people and made them common people of the Tang Dynasty!
"I'm not trying to drive you away. I, the Imperial Master of the Tang Dynasty, have said that all the land that used to belong to the nobles and dynasties will be given to you for cultivation based on population!"
"As long as you can pay your taxes on time and don't have any thoughts of causing trouble to the empire, you can live a prosperous life, have enough to eat and drink, and make money!"
"All of this is given to you by the Imperial Master!"
The guard spoke loudly and described the contents of the notice according to his own understanding.
At the same time, he was amazed in his heart, the national master is so kind!
He conquered the South and the North and made great achievements, but he never had any intention of taking power!
This is God!
There was a brief silence in front of the city gate.
Not long after, a slave spoke softly: "Am I dreaming?"
"Can we be allocated land and farm it ourselves, and we only need to pay food?"
"Will someone hit us?"
The guard smiled slightly and said loudly: "From today on, everyone is equal. If you want to be respected, just work hard and do your job well!"
"The oppression of the Harsha Dynasty no longer exists. From now on, you will all be our citizens of the Tang Dynasty, and all issues will be governed by the laws of the Tang Dynasty!"
Many people have heard of the Laws of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Empire had special laws, and the emperor's crimes were the same as those of the common people!
Suddenly, everyone fell to their knees in front of the city gate!
"Praise the teacher!"
"Praise the teacher!"
Many people's eyes were red and tears kept falling. This day has finally arrived!
They are no longer inferior to others because of their status, and they don’t have to worry about being beaten to death if they do something bad. They are “free”!
On the city wall, Li Fei looked at the scene below and sighed in his heart.
Slavery is difficult to change in a short period of time, but this is good. At least these people will not be lazy just because they get the land, which is of great benefit to the development of production.
Li Ji was left to take care of him for a while, so there wouldn't be any big problems.
A lot of potatoes were exchanged for them, and they were also put into the city lord's mansion.
In this area, Li Fei plans to build a big logistics city!
Cotton, iron ore, potatoes...
One of the future naval bases, this is considered one of the supply points.
"Brother, they are so pitiful!"
Beside Li Fei, Persimmon looked at the dark crowd below and said sympathetically.
"Everything is over, and they will soon live the lives of Tang Dynasty people."
Li Fei smiled slightly.
The content on that notice is actually part of the teachings of "Tang Jiao".
Although it is cruel to destroy faith, in this critical period, it is often faith that develops into a terrifying force.
For example, this is the case in Big Food Country.
……
Western Region, Stone Kingdom.
Cheng Yaojin stood on the city wall, watching the soldiers below cleaning up the battlefield.
Along the way, they did many great things after leaving the confines of Xiliang Kingdom.
First, the ungrateful Tuyuhun was wiped out, and then he went deep into the Western Regions and wiped out several small countries, including the Shi Kingdom.
Of course, there were also those who surrendered and were spared by Cheng Yaojin and others.
At this moment, 200,000 Tang troops are resting in the Stone Kingdom and are expected to arrive at the Persian Empire in up to two days!
"I don't know what's going on, Imperial Master, but the Harsha Dynasty is so brave. They dare to start a war with me, the Tang Dynasty!"
Yuchi Jingde stood nearby, looking into the distance.
"This kind of duplicitous force will only end in self-destruction."
"It is expected that the National Advisor has destroyed the Harsha Dynasty. When we get to the Persian Empire, we may be able to join the National Advisor."
Li Jing looked at the unhappy expressions on the two people's faces and said with a smile.
This time Li Jing was in command, with Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde as generals, commanding 200,000 troops to support Persia!
Behind the three people, the expressions of the Persian prince and the Persian envoy changed from time to time.
It is not difficult to see the deep worry among them.
If nothing else, the combat power of the Tang Army seen along the way was simply too powerful!
It was like a push, and several small forces were wiped out while marching!
This made them worry that when they arrived at the Persian Empire, would the Tang army destroy Persia and the Dashi Kingdom?
