The 454th chapter rebellion (1)
Most of the residents of Anxi Protectorate were refugees, and most of them lived a very difficult life, but those who survived were tempered and strong.
Most of the refugees are descendants of sinners, and some are fugitives. They do not have the identity of the people of the empire, and the governments in various places will not recognize them. Therefore, they cannot join the army, do business, work farming, and even sell themselves as slaves and dare not accept them.
They were the most difficult tribe in the Tang Empire and were abandoned people.
The Anxi Protectorate has hundreds of thousands of miles of area under its jurisdiction, but the imperial people are less than one million, and in fact there are tens of millions of refugees. They formed countless tribes of all sizes in the desert, living as tough as desert plants.
During the long struggle to survive, they formed their unique survival skills and became very brave and cruel warriors.
There are countless dangers in the desert, including ferocious beasts, snakes, insects and ferocious birds, but the greater danger comes from other refugees.
A group of refugee teenagers killed a sand lizard, and then they immediately cut open its body, and then they shared its flesh and blood.
Every refugee who seeks life in the desert has a very perverted body. A small bowl of blood is enough to support their entire day of activity consumption, and their bodies can use every drop of nutrients to the extreme.
As soon as these refugee boys finished eating a sand lizard, a dull sound of beast hooves suddenly came from a distance.
Their faces suddenly changed, and then they ran like cheetahs to the back of a sand dune hundreds of meters away.
Soon they took out their simple short bows, pulled out their sharp animal bone daggers, and looked in the direction where the sound of animal hooves came.
Seven or eight minutes later, a team of more than 60 cavalrymen roared over. Seeing the number of people on the other side and the leather armor on their bodies, the boys all showed despair.
They were obviously regular troops of the Anxi Protectorate, and such a cavalry was enough to sweep away a refugee tribe of less than a thousand people.
"I am ordered by the Governor of the Anxi Protectorate to recruit all refugees over twelve years old and under fifty years old to join the army! As long as I dare to kill and set fire, I can join the army!" However, these cavalry did not attack the young men, and the leading cavalry leader shouted loudly.
"Once you join the army, your whole family will be registered and become a citizen of the empire. Those who have not died for five years can also distribute fields and animals..." After pausing, the cavalry leader said again.
Such things, with Anxi City as the core, spread rapidly in all directions like a storm.
Shangguan Yun sent almost 60,000 out, asking them to form a team of dozens of people and spread the news of recruitment everywhere.
These generous reward conditions almost all refugees are crazy.
After Shangguan Yun's conscript was issued, he recruited 500,000 strong refugees in the first month.
These refugees went completely crazy. This was an opportunity to change their destiny, and this was an opportunity to change the fate of their descendants! So they didn’t care about joining the army, fighting, or going to die in battle!
In order to change the fate of themselves and their descendants, they can kill people wildly. They will use other people's blood and lives to make their military achievements, so that their descendants can live under the sky of the empire with their heads held high, without having to live in the desert like animals like animals!
Shangguan Yun's conscription order was soon spread to several surrounding provinces, so the refugees there went crazy. They rushed to the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion at all costs, and even broke out in fierce conflicts with the local defenders.
The provinces soon fell into turmoil, and countless refugees attacked everything they saw.
A month later, Shangguan Yun stuffed the heads of Eunuch Chen and the eunuchs into the teleportation array and sent them back to the imperial capital. At the same time, a rebellion manifesto was sent.
Yue Hao pondered for nearly half a month and decided to leave this place of right and wrong immediately. Then he gave Shangguan Yun tens of millions of taels of gold, many weapons and food.
Early the next morning, just as dawn, the east gate of Anxi City suddenly opened.
Shangguan Yun personally sent Yue Hao and his group out of the city gate, and then talked politely for a few words.
Soon Yue Hao and his party rode the sand camels to the east. These sand camels ran very fast and were very endurance. They could walk thousands of miles a day and night, making them the best means of transportation in the desert.
All of them were wearing cloaks, covering their faces with veils, and urged the Camel to run wildly with all their strength.
Half a day later, they met a group of ragged refugees, many of whom were walking towards Anxi City with blood.
This is obviously a small tribe, with only more than 600 people, including the old and young. They shouted excitedly and walked towards the distance in high spirits.
Yue Hao looked at these very excited refugees and couldn't help but nod.
These days he has seen many of these extremely happy refugees. Yue Hao felt a powerful vitality in these humble, alive like ants.
Along the way, countless refugees gathered in the direction of Anxi City!
A month later, Yue Hao and others entered the territory of the Western Regions Protectorate.
The Western Regions Protectorate has a total area of 500,000 miles, mostly grasslands and mountains, with 20 million registered people, and the people are strong.
Because of this, although the Western Regions Protectorate only has tens of millions of people, as long as the Western Regions governor gives orders, all the male soldiers who can fight can be mobilized.
Therefore, Shen Waner was not optimistic about Shangguan Yun's crazy actions. The Anxi Protectorate's Mansion had too few populations and too weak financial resources, so there was no sufficient resources for rebellion.
In fact, even a Western Region Protectorate can destroy everything in Anxi Protectorate with thunder and thunder!
Shatuo ran very fast. After Yue Hao and his team traveled through a mountain for three days, they entered a grassland.
An amazing scene appeared ahead, with countless corpses scattered on the grass, and blood accumulated on the grass into streams, slowly pouring into a small river flowing through the grassland, turning the river water into blood.
Many grassland vultures hovered high in the sky, making sharp and unpleasant chirping.
Thousands of warriors in leather armor were wandering among these corpses. Occasionally, they found someone still breathed a sigh of relief, so they beheaded and killed without hesitation.
There were waves of women crying in the distance, and many young women were stripped naked and pressed on the grass, hundreds of leather-armored warriors were surrounding them to tease and molest.
When Yue Hao and his group appeared, a team of leather warriors quickly discovered them.
With a sharp whistle, dozens of cavalry rushed over from not far away, and they quickly surrounded Yue Hao and others.
