Perhaps he was unwilling or his confidence was strengthened after a small victory. Fu Wei chose to hang far behind the remaining formation of the Gupta dynasty that failed and left.
Two battle formations from different civilizations fought all day in the bay of Bengal region, from the east of the island near Sri Lanka to the north at the end of the war.
After nightfall, Fu Wei thought the enemy would control the lights. Unexpectedly, the enemy didn't do that.
"Still a trap." Chen Tan doesn't think there is anything complicated: "the area should be not far from their native land, leaving lights for us to continue to follow, hoping that we will continue to follow."
Fu Wei went to the table where the chart was placed. After marking the chart himself, he ordered: "give up following and revise the route according to the original plan!"
During the daytime fighting, their three warships were not damaged... If they were shot by an arrow, there was no need to return to the stronghold.
A hasty encounter, almost a whole day's confrontation, the formation in the combat state didn't even have time to eat. After lifting the combat state and changing to guard cruising, the fatigue hit immediately, and many people didn't even eat and go to sleep.
The three remaining formations of the Gupta Dynasty, PICAR Malik really wants to attract the Chinese fleet to follow. Because the Chinese fleet is blackout, no one can be sure whether the other party is following or not.
"It's just a small attempt. It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter." Picard Malik faced djan Makur shrugged his shoulders in doubt: "the loss of four ships is nothing to us. Fortunately, only the loss of four ships makes us realize that there is a new threat."
No matter during the kusana empire or the establishment of the Gupta Dynasty, a San Yang has always been a San's ocean, and no one has been able to take control of this ocean from a San's hands.
Picard Malik really didn't take the loss into account. After they arrived at the port and landed, he even went to have a little wine in a very good mood and reconvened with di Jean the next day Makur met and went to see his boss.
"Do you mean that yesterday they encountered a fleet they had never seen before, and they had no intention of communicating and launched an attack immediately?"
Katluk Karp was a Brahmin and, of course, an aristocrat. He is not fat and disgusting. On the contrary, he seems to be a middle-aged uncle with noble temperament and full of authority.
In fact, most Brahmans were very self disciplined during the kusana Empire and the Gupta Dynasty. They thought they were chosen people. From the moment of their birth, they were more noble than countless people. Since childhood, they would receive systematic education, including literary knowledge and martial arts for fighting, and pay more attention to management.
On a San's side, Brahmans are only divided into nobles and monks. Nobles are not equal. It is necessary to distinguish the superior ancestors of blood (Surname) to distinguish who is higher. A San has recognized the existence of "state" since the Peacock Dynasty. Each high Brahman is actually the offspring of the "state king" and gradually evolved into a social manager.
A San's clothes look very colorful. As long as he is allowed to wear only one color of the cloth on his body, he is not willing to lose the fashion if he can wear more gold artifacts. All kinds of pendants such as rings and necklaces will be inlaid with precious stones. In any case, they are very local tyrants.
Katluk Karp looked like the above. Under the sunlight, he was shining with gold and gemstones. He stared at the two people who came to report in confusion: "when our ship has clearly stopped to surrender, the other party still launched an ignominious massacre?"
Maybe it's bullshit, but it's absolutely true. In Europa under the rule of the Romans, the countries on the A3 side, including the Sassanian Dynasty, are far more concerned about the rules of engagement than the Central Plains Dynasty at this time. That is, on the premise of being noble enough, I feel that there is no possibility of winning a battle and no hope of escape. Surrender is not a disgrace. On the contrary, I recognize that after surrender, I will redeem my life by ransom. Naturally, those who accept the protection of the rules are limited to those who are noble enough and can afford the ransom. The rest die or die. They usually become slaves.
"Yes, I swear to God." Picard Malik is a chadili who is qualified to swear to Shiva, one of the supreme gods of ah San, and the castes below chadili have no such qualification. He vowed: "they are definitely a group of highly civilized countries, but their behavior seems extremely barbaric."
Picard When Malik swore, he clicked the red mole on his forehead with his right hand. However, it was not a mole. It was a decoration that sardili was qualified to order. After clicking with his right hand, he held his hands high and then spread them down. His legs will also be slightly crossed and bent down. It is a set of religious etiquette.
"I'll take it seriously." Katluk Kapp didn't want to ask kapier at all How much did Malik's formation lose? He just nodded again and again, followed by a handout, saying, "once the information is useful, you will get the reward you deserve."
A San's social system is not simple. They accept hereditary official positions, but the central government has never had much control over local areas. There is a king of the supreme ruler, but there are still a few unclear state kings below. Under their social system, they can organize their own armed forces as long as their status is sufficient, but their military salaries and equipment are privately funded. When losses occur in the implementation of national missions, it is generally up to conscience to report how much, and whether they will be compensated later is another matter.
So, Picard Malik only needs to report how many high castes have been lost and pay pensions for those who sacrifice high castes. For those of the lower castes, including the lost warships, it is also natural that he does not pay the pension. If the state does not replenish warships, he will lose command of several ships at most. Whether to replenish them later depends on his financial resources.
In the whole process of reporting, di Jean Makur exists as a background wall. Although he is also a shatili, he did not have his own armed forces after the collapse of the family. It is because the makur family and the Malik family have been friendly for generations that he can get a position in the battle formation of PICAR, and he did not directly communicate with Carter Luk Kapp, the Brahmin, has the right to speak.
Behind them, a large group of slaves led the way out of the magnificent mansion. They stood down in the street.
Dijean Makur had wanted to ask for a long time, but he knew how to look at the occasion: "why don't you say another layer of speculation?"
"You mean, could they be from the Far East?" Picard Instead, Malik shrugged his shoulders and said, "we have no evidence, and Kapp won't believe that the conservative country will come all the way. Even if it is the country from the Far East, don't you think it's better not to say it?"
Dijean Makur was both stunned and confused. He didn't understand PICAR What does Malik mean.
"My brother, our ancestors have long said that the state belongs to the state and the family belongs to the family." Picard Malik looked like a teacher: "the Malik family has done their duty for the country in that fight, and I have reported what I know. Now I want to think about what benefits the Malik family will get in this unprecedented event."
Not only the aristocratic families in the Central Plains will put the family interests in front of the country, but also the families in any country in the world. They will first consider the family interests, and then the national interests.
The Malik family has developed in ketak for hundreds of years. The longer the time, the more intertwined the relationship with local families. Picard had spoken to dijean before Makur said that there were some businessmen from the East in ketak. He thought it must be related. It may be an opportunity for the Malik family to regain the opportunity of silk from the East.
The land silk road has been broken since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The Sassanian and Gupta dynasties can also obtain a little goods from the maritime Silk Road, but there is nothing west of the Sassanian territory.
The maritime silk road was not prosperous. It can even be said that only a few Gupta merchants would go to the territory of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty by sea, which enabled the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to often receive some countries that did not exist at all.
The number of tributaries recorded in the history of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was not small. On the premise of the almost complete fall of the north of the Yangtze River, those who came to pay tribute basically took the sea route, and the country names reported were all kinds of strange. In fact, they were not serious foreign envoys, but some businessmen pretended to be envoys.
The face of the small imperial court in the Eastern Jin Dynasty had long been trampled on the ground. It would not investigate whether there was that country at all. It would receive it carefully every time and give several times back the tribute, so as to prove that it was still a Heavenly Kingdom and that a group of younger brothers were willing to come to greet it.
"Isn't that country oppressed in the south by the nomads in the north?" Dijean Makur knows some information, but it's definitely out of date. He guessed: "have they solved the external crisis and returned to their previous strength?"
It seems that only this can explain it? Otherwise, a country facing an external crisis does not have enough power to protect itself. How can that power expand to the outside.
The Gupta dynasty still knew that there was a powerful empire in the East, and that the powerful empire fell into civil strife and was eventually overthrown. Then he seldom paid attention to what to do. After all, the two sides were too far away.
"No matter what the east becomes, I really can't think of anyone who can reach out to our ocean except them." Picard Makri stopped in the street and said with a smile, "but that's a big deal. What we need to do now is to find those Oriental businessmen."
Ktak can be regarded as a good city in the Gupta Dynasty. No one knows how many people are. Only because the Gupta Dynasty and the former frost Empire did not make the untouchables become adults, they only recorded the registered residence of the above people.
Ketak is just along the coast. There are several foreign trade ports. Foreign people basically land here. Some foreign businessmen will go to Fahrenheit city (the capital of the Gupta Dynasty), while others will sell and purchase goods locally and go to sea again.
A San still produces a lot of goods. The largest export share is pigments and metals, and the export profit of high-quality steel is the most. Of course, they do not sell steel directly. They are made into weapons. They are not the standard weapons. They are sold as luxury goods.
As a local snake, Picard It took Marik nearly half a month to collect the information of Oriental merchants, which is enough to show that the Han people of the Gupta Dynasty were very careful.
"They were not in ketak. The last time they left was seven days ago." Dijean Makur accepted Picard Malik's employment is not just in military affairs, but more like an assistant. He had to doubt: "he must have known that someone was probing their information before he left."
In the past half a month, the news that more unknown fleets have been found on a Sanyo has increased, katluk Kapp has also been looking for PICAR many times Malik inquired because the losses on the side of the Gupta Dynasty had increased again and again.
Catrook, as the local top manager Kapp paid attention to it. The first thing he did was to check the port ships. He really detained a ship from the Han country and detained some crew members. The other Han ships left the port early.
Picard Malik has been to prison and seen the detained crew. He also brought an interpreter, such as katruk The same thing about Kapp is that the information is very limited.
"I have spread the news about the detention of the ship. I believe someone will come and contact me soon."
Picard Malik at least knew that a unified country had emerged in the East, and the country's name was still the famous "Han". He could not tell the difference between the current "Han" and the "Han" in the kusana Empire, but he knew katluk Just because he heard the name of "Han", Karp decided to take the detainees to Fahrenheit city.
Of course, ah San knew the first Han Dynasty. After all, the powerful kusana had suffered losses in the first Han Dynasty for many times. The once aristocrats of the Da Yue family suffered great humiliation because they wanted to marry the princess of the Han Dynasty. Although it didn't have anything to do with ah San in the south, and even took it as a joke, at least they knew who was not easy to provoke.
"The city Lord invited me to go to the capital together." Picard Malik pointed to the housekeeper standing quietly next to him, and then to dijean Makur said, "I have decided to go to see the king with the city Lord. If someone really comes to contact me, I need you to contact me."
Dijean Makur agreed, but he was very confused and said, "why does the city Lord just pay so much attention to each other's country name?"
At this moment, Picard Malik has some sense of superiority, all just because he knows a lot of information. He said with a feeling: "because 'Han' represents prosperity, destruction of the country and countless families, not only the city Lord will pay attention to it, but I believe the king can't be careless."
