Chapter 892: Self-People and Non-Self-Owned

The soldiers on duty on the street saw that some of those Hu people took out a dagger and actually had a fierce light in their eyes, there have been a lot of Hu people in Nanling recently, some Hu people may be lawless, and they will take out the murder weapon when they encounter a point of conflict.

What is the social environment in Central Asia and Europa at this stage? To tell the truth, whether it is Central Asia or Europa, it is basically an environment where the law and security are not perfect, and Central Asia is even better than Europa in some aspects in terms of security, after all, there are more countries in Central Asia, and Europa is basically tribal except for the Mediterranean region, but the tribes don't even have words, what kind of law do you talk about?

Central Asia is safer than Europa, but to what extent? In fact, there is no shortage of robberies or murders in the streets, but there is no exaggerated degree of arrogance. If the country had remained stable, it would have at least been basically stable, but the eastern provinces of Seleucid had fallen into chaos, and then Parthia and Bactria had become independent~, and it was not uncommon for cities to rob and murder in the streets after such a period of chaos.

Even the Central Asian countries that often rob and kill people on the streets can be called good, so how bad is the law and order on the Europa side? In fact, there are not many countries on the side of Europa at present, not counting the Greek city-states or countries in the Mediterranean region, the whole of Europa is the existence of the Roman Republic and Massaria, and the rest are tribal populations, except for some larger barbarian tribes such as Gaul, Venedes, and Sarmats, the rest of the small and medium-sized tribes are so many that the number is not clear.

Don't ask any Germanic people, there is no Germanic group at all, they don't call themselves Germanic peoples, they should be some Nordic peoples, Scandinavians, and some regions with other names.

It was not until 51 BC that Caesar wrote the Gallic Wars for the first time when the word "Germanic" was used. And the Germanic people that Caesar mentioned should actually be some barbarian people with the characteristics of Celtic civilization. How so? That is to say, in fact, the Germanic people are given the name by others, and in fact they are divided into quite a number of groups, and when they are used to being called, they have the Germanic group.

What is the world now? Rome was still a republic, Seleucus was still strong despite its decay, and the Greek city-states of the Mediterranean were still scattered. Macedonia also became a third-rate small country after the glory of Alexander the Great.

The Mediterranean region has not been a quiet place since about the third millennium B.C., and it is not uncommon for Mediterranean countries to fight each other, and there are constant wars between Mediterranean countries and Central Asian powers across the sea.

War is the most destructive and continuous, war can show all the ugliness, once there is no shortage of war around people's lives, it will become a habit to choose violence in case of trouble.

"Is it a Sarmat?"

"Look at the dress, yes."

"Oh, these damn highlanders, they've become a habit of playing tricks, and they can pull out a dagger and kill someone at the slightest quarrel on the way here."

Because it's a downtown area. In fact, there are not a few aliens who have come here, and how do they react when they see the conflict between the "outsiders" who are also from far away and the people on this side of the empire? In fact, there will not be much reaction, because although they are all "foreigners", they do not belong to the same ethnic group, and even if they are the same ethnic group, they are not surprised if they disagree or because of something that happens in the downtown area, the difference is just that it happens elsewhere or here.

"There is no shortage of stupid fools in the world. They can provoke the Pakitanai or the Alans, why provoke the Imperials. ”

"Yes. Their only mistake is that they don't see clearly, the empire we came from is very large, and the people who live in this land are not cowardly. ”

"Obviously, the Scythians, Persians, and Alans have confirmed many things with examples, and the land is simply a huge barracks, and every seemingly harmless creature has at least some training in combat. Pick up a weapon and put on a military uniform is a soldier. ”

"They discriminate against us, I specifically asked, they have strict laws, and the law strictly stipulates that some things are crimes, but we are not legally protected by this empire."

"Of course. It is the people of the empire who pay the taxes, and we are not the people of the empire, and we do not pay even a single penny for the operation of the country. They don't need to protect us at all, and they don't need to maintain us for anything. ”

"Also, in perfect harmony with the Greek spirit and discipline."

It is the year 210 B.C., and the number of countries in the entire known world is not too large, and there are only a handful of countries that have laws and resolutely uphold the sanctity of the law.

"What country or tribe are these damn guys from?"

"There are too many envoys to Nanling this time, and there is a yellow-haired guy who is either from Bactria or further northwest from the Alans, Sarmat and the like, all of whom look similar, who can tell the difference?"

The soldiers on duty on the street had already joined the fight, and the twenty or so blonde and blue-eyed Hu men were basically lying on the ground or pressed to the ground in less than five minutes.

The guy who was hit earlier was lying on the ground at first, and he didn't get up when the conflict broke out. He had already spoken out to stop his own weapons when he showed his weapons, but unfortunately Ji Bu's bodyguard reacted too quickly, and another reckless guy rushed too hard and was cut down first, and it was too late for him to say anything at that time.

If you can understand what the guy who was hit said, he was saying something like "I am a Sarmat merchant who accompanied the Bactrian envoy to your country, everything is a misunderstanding", but it is clear that no one understood what he was talking about, the first Hu man was cut down, and the guards of Jibu were all soldiers who came down from the battlefield, and the threat must have been completely eliminated at the first sight of blood, or because the Hu soldiers on duty on the street had joined him, he was not killed.

There were quite a few people who saw the bloody scene, and apart from some women and children who would exclaim, the men basically did not react much.

"It seems that there were people from our side who clashed with those Hu people two days ago?"

"Are you talking about what happened over there in North City? It seems that a dozen or so Hu people are ruthless and clash with the shopkeepers. ”

"That's it. At first, it was a bare-handed brawl. Later, Hu Ren took out a sharp weapon and stabbed people, and then turned into a fight. ”

"Yes, as long as our people are adult men who have not received military training, it seems that before the arrival of the Wuhou patrolling the streets, only three of the ten Hu people were left to breathe."

"It's six that can breathe. However, there were three Hu people who were too seriously injured in the back. ”

Over there, Ji Bu was communicating with someone, and the target was an officer such as a military marquis. I don't know what I said, but after a short delay, someone from the Hongru Pavilion finally came over, and no matter what, we were finally able to communicate.

"General, he claims to be a Sarmat merchant and has no intention of assassinating the general, everything is a misunderstanding."

"If General Ben didn't bring an escort, then it wouldn't be a misunderstanding."

"This ......"

"Okay, you can deal with it as you want, General Ben is in a hurry."

Anyway, it's a busy street. Because a short fight has caused a more serious traffic jam, because the fight is full of scarlet blood, the bloody atmosphere on the scene is honestly a bit heavy.

The person from the Hongru Pavilion moved and said something to the military marquis, and finally the two of them saluted Ji Bu respectfully, and said something after saluting, waiting for Ji Bu to finish before leaving.

"It's not an assassination, it's definitely not an assassination. How could we possibly assassinate the generals of the Empire? The Sarmat merchant kept yelling: "You are too domineering, you are too domineering." Diplomatic relations are based on mutual respect, and you should maintain basic etiquette! ”

The person from the Hongru Pavilion did not translate what the Sarmat merchant said later. He simply glanced at the incessantly yelling Sarmat merchant with utter contempt.

The military marquis was slightly curious: "What is this guy yelling at?" ”

The secretary of the Hongru Pavilion said with a smile: "Say that we don't give respect. ”

"Respect?" Junhou pouted: "Those idiots have only been in Nanling for less than a month, not to mention the number of empty-handed brawls, they have shown their sharp weapons six times, and many people have been slaughtered each time." They are like brainless fools, they just don't know how to be taught. ”

"We've repeated announcements and warnings from the Hongru Pavilion," the Hongru Pavilion sighed wryly, "But it's useless." ”

It seemed that the Sarmat merchant had yelled enough. The non-commissioned officer on duty responded by the signal of the military marquis, and two non-commissioned officers came to help the Sarmat merchant up, and dragged the Sarmat merchant who tried to writhe and resist directly on both sides as if they were holding it hostage.

The Sarmat merchant was dragged away by the Imperial soldiers, and the Hu people who were originally lying on the ground seemed to be in a hurry, and they kept shouting something. However, as long as it was a loud shout, the Hu people were rewarded without exception.

"Whether it is to be assassinated or not, it is a fact that these Hu people showed their weapons and rushed towards the general, and there were soldiers on duty at the scene who saw it with their own eyes, and there were also pedestrians who could be used as witnesses."

"So ......"

"Cleaning up the scene, it's not a matter of the corpse being placed like this. In addition, those who are not dead will be brought back to the city guard cell, which should be tried through formalities and then beheaded? ”

"Whatever the entourage or something, such a person is not worth much on the side of those barbarians, it's just the merchant who takes the lead......"

"You don't need to say it."

"Okay, that's a matter for the military, and I'm a clerk in charge of translation."

In a few words, except for the Sarmat merchant, the fate of the remaining Hu people is actually doomed.

Soon there were horse-drawn carriages coming to carry the dead bodies, and some people who seemed to be cleaners brought water to clean the ground, waiting for the things to be cleaned up, whether they saw the whole thing in advance or heard about it later, they were not really concerned about how many Hu people died, but guessing who the general was that the soldiers were talking about just now.

Xu Yang was naturally one of the people who watched the whole process, he still watched on horseback, almost waiting for the people who cleaned the street to come over before beckoning his brother Xu Hui to leave.

"Killed so many Hu people, is it okay?" Xu Hui said and saw Xu Yang's strange face, and added: "I mean, those Hu people all came with the envoys, won't there be any problems after there are dead and wounded?" ”

"I really don't know about this," Xu Yang looked indifferent: "Didn't you hear the discussion?" This kind of thing has happened many times in a month, the citizens clashed with the Hu people, the Hu people died in vain, the citizens died, and the Hu people who participated in the murder had to be punished. ”

"Kill them all?" Xu Hui didn't know what he was thinking, but said: "This is biased law enforcement." ”

"The law is used to protect one's own people, just as the army is used to fight for the king and the empire, and the army only protects the empire." Xu Yang took it for granted: "For us, the Hu people are aliens or outsiders, whether it is the law or the army, there is no possibility for them, and if they are not involved, they can properly show justice, but once they are involved, their own people are wrong and right, right or right." ”

Xu Hui looked surprised and incredulous: "How can this be?" If so, how can the law guarantee impartiality? ”

Xu Yang finally understood that his clan uncle would be disappointed in this clan brother, Xu Hui's brain seemed to be a little rigid, and he didn't seem to understand the situation at all. He took a deep breath: "Our army is on the frontier, if it encounters a conflict between a foreign race and a registered person of the empire, there is no need to think about sending troops to slaughter the foreign race that is in conflict with the empire. I stayed in Yanmen County for nearly a year, and I personally led the troops to slaughter six alien tribes, and if one of our people died in the conflict, we would kill a hundred Hu people as revenge, and the 100 people killed would give priority to the middle-aged men of the alien race, and if the number of men was not enough, the elderly, women, and even children would be selected, in short, we must kill 100 aliens. ”

“…… This! "Xuhui doesn't seem to have the words to describe his feelings?

"You know what?" Xu Yang smiled a little sunny and bright: "Similar revenge is not uncommon in the frontier," he raised his head and looked at Xu Hui with an unbelievable face: "Half a year, only half a year, from the beginning of the conflict, to the meekness of the alien race in the back, it's only half a year!" ”

"So what if the people from the empire go to provoke the aliens first?" Xuhui looks worried?

"Hah!" Xu Yang didn't want to speak a little, but he was still patient: "Brother clan, there is no right or wrong in many things, but there is a position, for the imperial soldiers, we are defending our position, as for the alien race...... What's the matter with us? ”

"It's not right, it's not right, if it'...... If the people of the empire do not distinguish between good and evil, there will be a big problem, and there will really be a big problem. Xu Hui wanted to continue, but Xu Yang over there simply rode his horse and accelerated. (To be continued......)
