The emissary looked around and saw a young and shameful young man, wearing a big black robe, a leather vest, a shawl and leather boots, holding a whip in his hand, beating in his palm from time to time.
He's the one who overturned the Abbasid Empire? The messenger said in his heart.
Although shocked by the youth of this Chinese leader, the emissary still said, "on behalf of the great caliph, I salute you, distinguished Chinese leader!"
"Tell me, what did your Caliph call you for?" As for the thoughts of the Fatima Dynasty, Jiangning guessed some at the moment, and drew a smile at the corner of his mouth.
"The Caliph ordered me to bring some gifts for you! By the way, what are you here for When the messenger finished, the knight beside him sent out a signal in good time. Then Jiangning saw a huge motorcade full of valuable gifts coming slowly.
When the motorcade arrived, Jiangning looked at some of the gifts at random and found that most of them were food and luxury goods, such as precious gems, diamonds, high-grade fur, and even a few lions!
"I take the gift of your Caliph. And tell your Caliph that I'm very satisfied. We're only here by way, and we don't covet his land. Let him rest assured! "
Smoothly inquired into the exact news, the messenger was relieved, with joy: "your request, I will tell you the truth."
"In addition..."
The emissary's heart, which had just fallen down, immediately raised to his throat and said uneasily, "do you have any other requirements?"
Jiangning said with a smile: "I need a group of transport ships. I want to ask your Caliph to borrow a group of ships to transport personnel and materials! Go to Sardinia opposite! Oh, by the way, I heard that there are many big cannibals in Sardinia opposite. Is that so? "
The emissary said, "it is true, but since you have a crush on the island, our Caliph will be happy to give you the place. As for the residents living above, we'll take them with us when we return. It won't cause you any trouble. "
"That would be best, but please tell your Caliph."
"It should be."
When the emissary got the exact information, he immediately led his entourage to the country, fearing that Jiangning would repent.
……
When the Fatima Dynasty got the news, Mansour, the contemporary caliph, was pleasantly surprised. He only paid some trivial things. You can find out what you want to know most. Since these Tang people are not here, they just borrow some boats to Sardinia by the way. How could Mansour disagree?
What he wants to do most at present is to send away these unruly elders. The farther away from your own territory, the better. You can go anywhere. You'd better not stay in your own territory.
Mansour still knows the truth that change comes later.
Therefore, he immediately summoned the ships of the whole country to stay in the capital for requisition! Not only that, but also many new ships have been built to try their best to meet the requirements of Jiangning.
He was afraid that if he was not careful, the other side would take a fancy to his country.
……
Jiangning didn't know about the great movements and tense atmosphere of the Fatima Dynasty, leading a migration team of more than 300000 people. All the way slowly toward Tunisia.
After this great migration, the early thin and malnourished Tang people's bodies are growing at the speed visible to the naked eye almost every day. Today's Tang people are the best soldiers with strong bodies.
Along the way, people talk to each other, livestock cry, plus the sound of the wheels when the vehicle moves. In this Semi-arid Land, continuous echo.
At night, a team of more than 300000 people set up camp in disorder! During this period of time, everyone's spirit is full and excited. For their future life, we are full of expectations. The Jews in the Tang Dynasty had a good time. The Tang people did not discriminate against them because of their status, but they had a kind attitude. Let the Jewish people who support the old and the young be grateful.
Jiangning, on the other hand, wrote and edited some books in the tent.
About this kind of construction game, Jiangning is always full of strong interest. And it's not a game, it's real. And he's personally involved.
Every time I meet this kind of busy, but full of passion.
It has to be said that this kind of live version construction is very interesting.
……
At about 4 o'clock, a team of more than 300000 people, after a night of recuperation, began to set out in succession to drive the dim night, holding a torch to continue to move to Tunisia.
The weather in North Africa is very hot during the day, especially at noon. In hot weather, people always lose more water. Therefore, in the sun has not yet risen, under the cool weather, is undoubtedly a way to save energy.
Finally, near noon, the migration team entered the fatiman kingdom.
The troops guarding the border have long been informed. Almost accompanied by the figure of the Tang Dynasty appeared on the border, it was seen by the army of the Fatima Dynasty.
As a result, the soldiers were at the command of Caliph Mansour. They didn't dare to take any drastic action at all. Instead, they had to respectfully lead them to the port where the ship was calling.
The team did not stop at all. They went all the way north to Mahdia, the capital of the Fatima Dynasty.
Here, the Fatimids mobilized all forces and gathered about 10000 transport ships, many of which were newly built. Although it can't transport all the 300000 people at one time, it can only be transported in batches.
When the team came to Mahdia, Jiangning was disappointed to see the boats moored in the port. These transport vessels are not big at all, the tonnage is limited, and they are short. They can only transport dozens of people at most at one time. However, there are more than 300000 people under Jiangning's command, not to mention the materials they carry, cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock.
These ten thousand boats can't transport many people, let alone a larger number of goods!
"Honey, these boats are so small, we have more than 300000 people! What's more, countless supplies. When can we get to Sardinia just by these boats? "
Jiangning is also very dissatisfied, but with the current technology, the whole Europe and the Arabs can not build too big a sea boat. This one-time ship, which can only transport dozens of people, is not very useful at all.
"I can't help it. I can only rely on myself."
Riding on a horse, slowly toward the pier. The team of more than 300000 people under its command followed closely.
"Ask your Caliph to send some giant logs and pile them up by the harbor!" The whip pointed to the official standing on one side, commanding with arrogance.
"Yes
Then the official quickly mounted his horse and ran to the palace.
After waiting for about an hour, Jiangning saw groups of people coming towards the port with a big log on their shoulders. Then, the bare armed men piled up one log after another on the specially cleared open space beside the port. It's a waste of days just to transport and stack these logs back and forth.
"Let all the sailors who are still on board, the captain, come out."
Although I don't understand what Jiangning meant by letting the sailors and the captain out. But according to Jiangning's wishes, the officials informed the sailors and the captain who were still on board. These captains, suffocating, had their ships commandeered by the caliphate. Who knows, there are so many people coming to the port, including the materials and gold and silver, which are immeasurable wealth!
But although they have the heart of thieves, they have no corresponding courage.
This group of Chinese people are not easy to be provoked. It has long been known internationally. I didn't see that when these armed Tang people came to the capital of the dynasty, even the Caliph didn't care, and even had to obey the orders of the Tang people respectfully. Businessmen are very smart, and naturally dare not offend today, just like the Tang people in Japan.
Then, the scene in front of us once again opened our eyes to countless people!
