Chapter 25 The Big Food Barbarian
For several days, Chen Guang taught in Gaofu for half a day every day. He asked the old manager to ask the craftsman to paint black paint on the wall of the big house where he was teaching, and also used chalk to make chalk to teach the musicians a big class.
Re-working on his old job makes Chen Guang miss the wonderful times in the past, but compared to his bear students, the musicians in front of him are all good students. They respect teachers and are diligent and studious, learn from one example and learn from others. Classroom discipline is absolutely not required to be concerned about. Moreover, as the course grows, Chen Guang has no doubt that even if he tells these musicians now that they live on a big ball, they will definitely believe it.
It is a good thing for the students to be too smart and sensible, but it also makes Chen Guang less fun in training. Fortunately, the learning progress is gratifying. Most musicians have begun to get used to using staples, and Chen Guang is not in a hurry to teach them new songs. They just first compose the songs they played in the past into a book, let them practice according to the exercises, and then do nothing wrong.
The afternoon sun was shining. Although Shen Guang didn't care about his face, the fang soldiers around him held big umbrellas. The eyes of people who were watching on the road made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"The husband is so beautiful, how can he be tanned? Besides, the husband has his life. When he goes, he must have Luo Gai to accompany him. How can we neglect it?"
The soldiers were very upright, but they would not think that their husband was a novice. In the past ten days, the husband had been able to follow them in half of his body, and had never complained about suffering. Even archery has made great progress. He could hit six or seven targets in ten arrows.
Back at the Chen house, which had just been seen in the first place, Chen Guang met Cao Yalang again. At this time, he already knew that the fat Yalang was named Cao Juyan, who was from the Jiujun surname of Zhaowu in Hezhong. This was a famous merchant in the Eastern Cao Kingdom. Unfortunately, the great cannibals were later involved in the river and imposed heavy taxes on the royal families of the kings. Then Cao Juyan became unlucky. Not only did he lose most of his wealth and property, but even his business was disrupted by the great cannibals. Finally, he became Yancheng and became a Yalang.
"Mr. Langjun, that great cannibal has always been the most treasonable and does not trust. He can be exempted from taxes by just believing in their sects. As a result, what he says is like fart..."
After getting familiar with Shen Guang, Cao Juyan often chatted with Chen Guang and told some stories about his past. He found that this gentleman was quite interested in the big cannibals, so he said bad things about the big cannibals. However, the big cannibals had just changed their dynasties, and the army's combat power was the strongest time. Even when he talked about the big cannibals, he was still scared.
"We Cao and An countries can fight among the countries, but when we encounter those big-foot barbarians, we can't beat them, especially those big-foot barbarians who are good at using big-foot barbarians with wide-blade swords with one sword, and one sword can cut people in half..."
Anguo and Cao were both great countries among the Jiu surname of Zhaowu. Most of the trade on the Silk Road was occupied by these Sogdian city-state countries. They often sway between the Tang Dynasty and the Dashi. However, compared to the Dashi who were levying heavy taxes and engaged in religious oppression, the Jiu surname of Zhaowu was more inclined to the Dashi, but the Dashi was too far away and the Dashi was too close.
So even Cao Juyan, a wealthy businessman who was originally considered top in the Eastern Cao Kingdom, had to escape to Anxi after offending the Great Cannibal. However, Chen Guang was very curious about the use of the two-handed sword by the Great Food Army, because in his inherent impression, Arab warriors should not use the long-blade scimitar with the cross guards, and the two-handed sword was the standard for European barbarians.
"Cao Dajia, you sure you use a big sword instead of a scimitar?"
"Langjun, this big-food warrior is indeed famous for making big swords with two hands. I once heard from the old soldiers in the Anxi Army that the warriors in the big-food army wear chain mail, carry big shields, and hold big swords with two hands, are extremely brave and good at fighting."
Wang Shenyuan spoke at the edge. He served in Anxi for more than ten years and knew many veterans who had returned to the field. He knew that the Tang Dynasty had fought against the white-clothed Dashi in the river and fought several battles. However, at that time, the thunder cavalry was used by the Tang Dynasty and was the main force in fighting against the Dashi army. The battle between Thirsty and Water Ri made the Dashi army scared.
Chen Guang didn't expect that Cao Juyan was not talking nonsense. The Arab warriors of this era actually played big swords. Fortunately, such elite infantrymen could not afford tens of thousands of dollars.
"Our Anxi Army is no worse than those big-season barbarians."
"Of course, the Tang Dynasty's heavenly soldiers are not comparable to those of the Dashi Barbarians."
Cao Juyan, who was glanced at by Wang Shenyuan, quickly echoed. He said that the Tang Dynasty and Dashi only had a few battles. Although the scale of the battle was not large, the Tang Dynasty won. What's more, the Tuqi Shiren, who had beaten the Dashi Barbarians to the point of falling water, was beaten to the death of the Tang Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. In this way, the Tang Dynasty could definitely beat the Dashi Barbarians.
Thinking of this, Cao Juyan suddenly felt even more depressed. The Tang Dynasty was obviously in great strength, so why could not send troops to expel the Dashi Barbarians and give him a bright world in the river! He didn't have to leave his hometown and come here to be a despised Yalang.
Looking at Cao Juyan who suddenly became melancholy, Chen Guang knew what he thought and didn't know what to say. He heard Feng Changqing say that most of the nine surnames of Zhaowu in the river are fence-bearing grass, not to mention that the precious troops of the four Anxi towns, how could they waste them on the Dashi Barbarians?
"I want to see my husband..."
Suddenly, shouting sounded in the distance. Chen Guang looked at him and saw someone on the construction site in the distance.
"Go and see, what's going on?"
Chen Guang got up and walked over. At this time, the other fang soldiers had already arrived there, but the irritable fang soldiers did not take action first this time, which made him a little curious.
Soon, Chen Guang saw a strong young man on the construction site who shouted to see him, who looked like the Anxi Han dynasty mentioned by the soldiers of the fangs, that is, the illegitimate son born to the local women in the four towns of the Tang Dynasty.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were usually rotated every six years when they were far away from their hometowns for six years. They couldn't hold back even if they were a man. There were so many Hu Ji who closed the door and laughed in Yancheng, but not all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were willing to spend all their military salary on Hu Ji's white belly.
Many soldiers in the Tang Dynasty would find a local woman to be a friend in Yancheng, and most of the local women were happy to get married with the soldiers in the Tang Dynasty, because this means that the family will not be bullied again in the future, and even if their husbands leave in the future, they will leave a lot of money for them to raise children.
But at the beginning, no matter how much money was, it was not enough to raise the children to adulthood. So these men had to learn to make a living from an early age. Although the blood of the Tang Dynasty was shed on them, the Anxi Army had no spare energy to accept them, and the locals envied them and excluded them.
"Langjun, we are not here to cause trouble, we just want to ask Langjun to give us some work."
The strong young man saw Shen Guang surrounded by the fang soldiers and said with a hopeful look on his face. The young men who followed him also shouted, "Yes, my husband, we are very strong, and we are much more efficient in working than these lazy foreigners."
"Nonsense, when did we get lazy?"
The foreman who had not spoken was angry. It would be fine if these men competed for work with them, but they could still be innocent.
"Then do you dare to let your husband share some of our work, and compare who can do faster and better."
A man shouted loudly, and the foreman suddenly disappeared. It was a pity that he was not lazy when working with his workers. It was just that they were used to being casual and were indeed not as good as those men.
Seeing this, Chen Guang immediately understood that these men were not lying, and he could see from the attitude of the soldiers around him that the soldiers were all inclined to these men.
"May I have your name?"
"I'm my surname Chen, I don't have a name, but I'm very strong, and people call me Chen Tieniu."
The strong young man replied, "Most of them have no serious names, they all took things blindly when they grew up, otherwise they would be Dalang Erlang shouting according to the rankings at home."
"Then you bring your people to work here, Abu, you can arrange your work."
