Although the Persians and the Arabs are not very different in appearance, they are actually two peoples with different living habits and cultures.
The Arabs were strictly nomadic people, who formed groups in the form of tribes and were constantly moving and inhabiting.
The Arabs who live in the cities are forced to do so, and those who live in the cities are also looked down upon by the nomadic Arabs, who think that the Arabs who live in the cities have forgotten their traditions.
That's right, every nation has its own traditions, and no matter whether it's good or bad, there will always be people who care, and because of such a thing, they will develop a contempt complex for each other, and it will even evolve into a sword and a soldier.
The Arabs have a clear saying since ancient times, that is, "if we can't rob outsiders, we rob our own brothers", which is also doomed to the various tribes of the Arabs are full of contradictions, it is difficult to achieve unity, and several times when they are truly united, they will die if they are not united, but there is no sincere cooperation in the real sense.
The current Arabs are not united at all, and it is not wrong for them to rebel against the Persian Sassanid rule, but the majority of the people who are fighting are also Arabs.
It's not that the Persian Sassanids armed some Arabs to raze them, but in fact, the Arabs have a robbery complex for thousands of years, so they are rebelling against the Persian Sassanids anyway, anyway, they feel that they can rob and do it, and there is no mercy for the sake of their compatriots.
"That's exactly what it looks like."
Mosen Hadidan said with great disdain: "They have several big clans, full of hatred for each other, and we don't need to provoke them at all, they will not die when they meet." ” Cai Mian asked curiously: "Is it because they are of the same blood that they are called Arabs, or is it a habit of life?"
It is difficult to define a race by blood in the world, it is a matter of mutual contact and marriage in the process of evolution, especially if two or more nations are too close, then the more mixed children will be produced, how can it be possible to maintain the purity of blood.
In fact, there are great disadvantages of keeping the bloodline pure, and some families have internal conventions of becoming biological children, such as letting the elder sister marry the younger brother, or the elder brother marries the younger sister, and the offspring produced by the close union are defective in all aspects, or simply give birth to a deformed baby.
Genes have long determined that there should be no blood relationship to give birth to a healthy baby to the greatest extent, and the closer the genes, the more defects will be given to the offspring.
"No one can tell."
Mosen Hadidan shook his head and said, "It should be similar in living habits, anyway, no one has ever cared about those thieves and sand thieves." ” Cai Mian immediately understood, Zhuxia was in the same situation, no one cared about the ethnic structure on the grassland, anyway, when the Xiongnu were strong, they were called Xiongnu, and when Xianbei was strong, they were called Xianbei, so they didn't care who the ancestors of those tribes in the grassland were, or whether they were the same ancestor.
They had just a small rest in this oasis, and after replenishing enough water, the team set out again.
"Something wasn't quite right."
Dou Ah felt that it was just out of curiosity, and some Arabs were also too curious: "There are some Arabs who deliberately contact our people and talk to our people too enthusiastically in broken Chinese. ” Don't forget that not many people in a place like Persia can speak Chinese at all, but there are a few Han Chinese who come here who can speak Persian, but they really don't know Arabic.
The Arabs who had just come into contact with the Han Chinese, although they spoke Chinese badly, at least they spoke Chinese.
Dou'a was specially appointed as the head of the guard of the envoys, and he needed to ensure the safety of the envoys, so he was very sensitive to some things.
In fact, Dou Ah also communicated with the Persians just now, but when he went to look for people, he didn't find the Arabs just now.
If I didn't find it, it was definitely not that the Arabs were covered and not recognized, nor that the Han people saw that the Arabs were face blind, but they really disappeared.
Wang Meng still attaches great importance to it, and after asking clearly, he asks again: "Do you rule over the Persians?"
Dou Ah shook his head: "I didn't specifically mention it."
Later, he added: "We went with the Persians to find the Arabs, and the Persians were more nervous than we were." ” Wang Meng nodded and said, "There are Arabs who can speak Chinese, and Persians will have many associations if they are not dull. ” Indeed, the Han envoys are in the territory of Persian Sasani, and Persian Sassanids have the responsibility to ensure the safety of the Han envoys, after all, if something happens in diplomacy, it will definitely not be a trivial matter, and now there are too many places for Persian Sassanid to ask for Han, even if the possibility of Arabs doing something to the Han envoy is only one in 10,000, the Persians will not relax.
In fact, after the Han envoys left the oasis, the Persians arrested all the Arabs there and interrogated them as necessary.
It's just that they're still a little done, and by the time they catch someone, the Arabs who should have run have already run away.
Out of the oasis, continue to walk northwest, along the way in addition to the Gobi or Gobi, there are several oases along the way, but they do not stop.
This time their pace was not fast, it was Mosen Hadidan who deliberately slowed down, and told Wang Meng that since the situation was not quite right, he should be careful, he had already asked people to come and answer, and informed the nearby governor, who would conduct a detailed reconnaissance of the surrounding area.
"Their vigilance is too high," said Ibn Rahman, standing by the window, observing the contingent of envoys through the cracks in the wooden rows: "Governor Habibullah has moved the garrison, and our men have had to retreat far away. ” Ibn Abdul had been silent, and he didn't expect that just a few contacts with the Han people in the past would turn out like this, and he really didn't know whether to say that the Han people were too alert, or that the Han people were extremely insecure and afraid of death.
"After this village, it's Iraq."
Ibn Rahman looked at his partner with the same name and surname, and said worriedly: "We have prepared so much, it is understandable if we fail, but if we don't do it, the clans will never trust us again." ” In Zhuxia, a clan refers to a family, and even if there are more, it will not reach the tens of thousands of people who are mine chiefs.
But on the Arab side, there are definitely tens of thousands of people who can be called clans, and some large clans are hundreds of thousands.
"Yes, it's not terrible to fail, it's terrible to do nothing."
Ibn Abd al-Abd agrees: "But we have to find the right time." ” The Arabs of later generations like to play with human flesh explosions, but it is not a sudden hobby, they are a nation that will do it even if they know that they will fail, and as long as they sacrifice something, as long as they don't die with their heads and brains, they don't care how many people are killed or injured.
There is such a thought, because their population has always been quite large since ancient times, and then there is the national character formed by the harsh environment, but it has been strengthened by the religion of religion.
This time, they prepared 20,000 people, scattered and hid in the desert or the Gobi, and planned several attack sites, but so far they have not found too good opportunities.
"When I entered Iraq, there were several places where there was desert and no water supply."
Ibn Abd al-Ul was already crouching on the ground, drawing the sand of the ground with his hands, drawing a topographical map, and pointing out several locations: "These places are our last chance." ” A desert without a water supply point cannot be inhabited at all, so it is destined that there will be no garrisons around, even if there will be garrisons in other places, and when those garrisons know that the Han envoys have been attacked, there will be a delay in time.
"The Persians have new reinforcements."
Ibn Rahman's face was not good: "We need more men. ” "Then you can only capture the Han envoy alive, not kill it."
Ibn Abd al-Abdul gave the reason: "Even though the Han Empire is far away from us, the larger the clans, the more reluctant they are to offend the Han Empire. ” The reason is very simple, even if the Han State does not send troops to retaliate, but as long as it supports the Persian Sassanid in terms of economy and armament, then the Persian Sassanid will definitely arrest some people and fight them to the death in order to give an explanation to the Han State.
Ibn Rahman nodded heavily: "Actually, if we can communicate peacefully with the envoys of the Han Empire, of course we want to." ” It was inevitable, the Arabs were engaged in the great cause of overthrowing the Persian Sassanid rule, and they desperately needed support from outside, especially from an empire like the Han state.
If the Han Kingdom was willing to support them, it would be great if they could directly provide them with some goods or supplies to feed them.
The current Arabs are not without external support, such as Constantius, who provided a lot of support, and Julian, who had been entrenched in Egypt for a generation, gave moderate support to the Arabs.
The Romans were very happy with the Persian Sassanid civil strife, and they were definitely strong in supporting the Persian Sassanid to find something unpleasant, but they also found a very bad point, such as the fact that a considerable number of Arab clans who received support from Rome did not work for the benefit of the Persians, which led to the later Rome thinking that the Arabs were too bad in reputation, and they were not very willing to deal with the Arabs.

The Arabs' revolt against the Persian Sassanids fell into a new low point when Roman support waned, and even the Yue, who were far inferior to them, were in a state of disarray.
Of course, the Romans turned to strongly support the Yueshi, and some Serbs also received support from the Romans.
The Han Kingdom was frighteningly far away from the Middle East, but thanks to the strong presence of the Gupta Dynasty in the Middle East, the news of the Gupta Dynasty's defeat in the face of the Han invasion was constantly spread to the Middle East, which greatly increased the reputation of the Han Kingdom in the Middle East.
For some Arabs, they were most concerned about the Han and Persians coming together, and they struggled to figure out that the Han and Persian Sassanids were not fully allied, and at the same time they received news from the east that the Han were advancing into Central Asia.
"Our last choice is to kill the Han Chinese, and the best option is to win their support."
Ibn Abd al-Abd al-Il methodically said: "Judging by the reluctance of the Han Empire to form a full-scale alliance with the Persians, they were not really friendly, but had common interests against Gupta side.
The Han Chinese are marching into Central Asia, and will certainly eventually clash with the Persians, and as long as the Han Chinese are as clever as they are rumored, they will choose to support our cause. ” On the other hand, Wang Meng and others had already guessed what the Arabs thought, so they didn't care so much about whether the Arabs would attack.
They still haven't figured it out, Arabs rarely have reason, and when it's really difficult to get in touch with, they won't scruple so much, don't care who you Han are, kill them first.
"Actually, it's good to touch it."
Cai Mian has a father who is one of the Nine Qings, and he will more or less know the strategic layout of some centers: "The footsteps of the Han Dynasty's westward conquest will not stop in the Western Regions. ” Wang Meng also knew, but he was hesitant to contact the Arabs now: "Even if we really want to get in touch, waiting to go to Daqin has an opportunity." ” They are envoys, if they contact the Arabs in Persian Sassanid territory and are discovered by the Persians, not to mention what diplomatic disputes will cause, the Persians do not have the courage to detain them, but the situation will be very embarrassing, and then as an envoy, they must pay attention to the influence, or they are overdrawing the country's credit.
Wang Meng actually wanted to say that the Han Kingdom had never made decent diplomatic relations, and it had always been a state of intimidation, and there were countless schemes such as anti-intermediary schemes and divisive schemes, but they were really not used, and the ancestors left so much war art in vain.
He thinks that it is impossible for the Han Kingdom to come to this land at this time anyway, so can't the diplomatic relations be used Cai Mian also has the same opinion, mainly because if they do that, they won't lose much if they don't succeed, but if they succeed, the reward or something is enough to become a ladder for them to climb to a higher position in the future.
It is a pity that the Persians were too protective of the Han envoys, and the Arabs did have the idea of failure in the back, and launched several tentative attacks, but the problem was solved each time outside the Han people's field of vision.
"How to say it" Cai Mian didn't know whether to laugh or laugh, he was both depressed and helpless: "What are the Arabs doing suicide attacks?"
Wang Meng was also confused, he knew that the Persians had mobilized more than 80,000 people, and the Arabs knew that it would be useless to attack, but it was really an attack, it was simply burning fireworks with their lives, or fireworks that they couldn't see.
"Maybe it's a subtle expression of existence to us," Cai Mian thought about it, the more he felt right: "Otherwise, there would be no other way to say it." ” Wang Meng was stunned, and said in disbelief: "Send at least 10,000 people to death, let us know about their existence" If the two Ibns were there, they would nod their heads like chickens and say, "Although it means to give an account to the tribes and clans, you are right:
