Chapter 862: Noble, Get Started!


Asan Yang is the name of the Han Chinese, and the Romans, Persians and Asan men call it the Eritrean Sea.

According to the universal truth that whoever is strong has the right to name it, the Han people are now on the Asan continent in the Gupta dynasty, and the Romans and Persians must recognize the strength of the Han people, so Rome and the Persian Sassanid need to change the map and cross out the name of the Eritrean Sea and use the new name of the Han people.

Not only the Sea of Eritrea needs to be changed to the Azan Ocean, but also the continent that was originally called the Credibility will also be changed to the Azan Continent.

It's just that any country or nation, including the Romans and Persians, also includes the Gupta Dynasty and many other countries and nations of the Asan continent, and they really don't know why the Han people are so obsessed with the name "Asan".

In fact, the Han people don't know why they are named "Ah San", they originally thought that Liu Yan recognized the Gupta Dynasty as the third most powerful country in the known world, but no matter how you calculate it, they feel that something is wrong, the Han State is naturally the most powerful country in the world, and Rome and Persian Sassanid occupy the other two top three positions, so what is the special meaning of "Ah San".

Liu Yancai will not tell the secret, there is actually a very disgraceful background in it.

Ah San, referring to Indians, is a degradatory term with the meaning of race, race, nationality, disagreement and vision, and a sir transliteration.

"Indian Asan" comes from the Wu Shanghai dialect of the "Ten Mile Ocean Field" period, and the Wu people are very fond of adding the word "A", and the words related to "three" in the Shanghai dialect are mostly derogatory words.

In the British Concession of Shangyihai, there were often "civil servants" transferred from India who were responsible for some miscellaneous affairs, and these Indians were loyal "minions" of the British, dancing with batons all day long, so the Shangyihai people contemptuously called them "Ah San".

Among the various seas of the world, there are not many seas that have been prosperous since ancient times, and the Mediterranean Sea is one of them, and then there is the Asan Ocean.

"There are so many ships," Julian said, not the fleet from the continent, but the rest of the fleet sailing in the three oceans: "The Cyris use the sea far beyond our imagination."

However, the Han people began to play sailing in recent years, and the rulers only played sea navigation because the rulers believed that there were immortal islands on the sea, and the purpose of building ships and going to sea was to find immortal islands and pray to the immortals for the elixir of immortality, and only a very small number of times or two large fleets went to sea with military purposes.

Sanyo's current prosperity is based on the fact that the Han people have found places where they can capture slaves, such as the fleets seen by Julian and others, that is, the Han people are going to the African continent to do the great business of catching slaves.

It can be expected that the Han people continue to go to the African continent to hunt slaves, although the black corn is poured blood mold, but the African continent will also usher in civilization, there will be towns built by the Han people in batches, and even attract the Han people to come over to reclaim the wilderness, so that this land that has been in a state of wilderness for a long time ushered in civilization.

"Watch out."

Speaking in awkward Chinese, Ksiaias raised his hand to the staggered ships with many different flags: "The pattern on those flags should be the family crest, and there is a family behind the flags of different patterns." ” In fact, many flags have no patterns at all, and are Chinese characters in different scripts, such as the "Yu" hanging by the staggered fleet, and the "Xie", "Huan", "Wang", "Xu", "Ran", "Cai", and so on.

Behind every surname there is indeed a family, the ministers of the new dynasty, the families who have become nobles by merit, and the families with strong local heritage, who are catching up with the trend of the times.

Julian still knows Chinese characters, but there is no reason to teach Xeias to be smart, and he responds casually with a "hum hayi", but his heart is mixed.

"In this great change, the Seris people have gone far ahead of us."

Flavies was even more determined to figure out how to build an ocean-going vessel: "As soon as you arrive in Seris, place an order with them" As if he had discovered something, Ksiaias shouted in great astonishment: "Our people, that's our people" The crowd followed the direction of Ksiaias's finger, and on the decks of several ships saw Persians, busy as sailors.

They couldn't tell the difference between the Han and the Japanese, or they should have learned that the fleets of many families actually had quite a lot of Japanese sailors.

The Han Chinese did not play the navy for a few years, and the navy expanded repeatedly, and most of the sailors were conscripted into the navy, leaving few seafarers for private ships.

The Age of Discovery had arrived, but anyone with a little brain knew that it was a long time to train sailors, so the wise people turned their attention to the coastal areas of the country and the Japanese Islands, and vigorously tapped all kinds of seafaring talents and hired sailors.

Persians will appear on the ships of the Han Chinese, which is nothing more than that some families really can't hire sailors in their own land and the surrounding areas, and they play the role of hiring Persians under the cleverness of moving the dead and the living.

In the cabins of the ships that Julian and the others could not see, all the oarsmen were Ah San, and they were all prisoners of the "Han Ji War".

The Romans did not know that there was an extreme shortage of seafarers in the Han Kingdom.

According to their thinking, the Han people must have been playing seafaring for thousands of years, and with a heritage that no country or nation in the world can match, how can there be a lack of seafarers On the premise of not knowing the facts, the Romans thought in a somewhat biased direction, thinking that the Han people were playing happily with the Persians, and there was inevitably a period of envy, jealousy, and hatred, and even more hatred of the Persians.

"The friendship between Persia and the Han Empire can be traced back to 500 years ago."

"We once used 100,000 troops to greet the envoys of the Han Empire as a sign of respect for the Han Empire. ” Julian wanted to say that the Parthian Empire had been buried in the ground, and that it was Rome that had beaten the Parthian Empire to the brink, but it was the founder of the Sassanid Empire who had buried the Parthian Empire in a rebellion.

Parthia is Parthia, Sassanid is Sasanian, Western Han is Western Han, and Modern Han is Modern Han.

"Venerable Ardashir."

With a curious expression, Flavies, speaking in standard Persian, asked Xesias: "Do you have a ship to buy from Seris?"

Anyway, before he left the country, he had never heard of anyone buying ships from the Han Kingdom, and he had just seen some of the Han ships with Persians on them, and he did not know whether the Persians were hired or the owners of the ships.

It didn't matter if he didn't know in his heart, he already knew that the Han people were willing to sell ships to the Romans, so he raised his head and replied: "Our country is an ally of the Han Empire, what do you say?"

Flavies asked again: "Then Your Majesty, can you disclose the amount and type of purchase?"

Ksiaias squinted at Flavies with disgust: "Is our relationship as good as this?"

Fravis told himself not to be angry, and stared at Ksiaias with disdain, "You don't know anything at all, you know how to brag."

Ksiaias, who really doesn't know anything, is at least IQ online, so he won't do stupid things like "saying too much and losing it", the most important thing is that he is afraid that the wrong purchase price will be more embarrassing.

"The Seris did not open the right to purchase ships to the Persians."

Flavies smiled at his companions and said, "This is good news for us. ” The Romans didn't know what it meant to be a long-distance friend and close attack, but they could judge the general situation, the Han people would never support the Persian Sassanids, and the root cause of everything was that the Persian Sassanids were too close to the Han Kingdom.

Of course, the fleet will not stop, and after nearly half a month of sailing, the figure of the Asan Continent was seen on the horizon.

They staggered along the same route with numerous fleets, and the Romans and Persians were convinced that the Han Chinese were frantically pouring towards the continent.

Calabaras is the southernmost country in the A-3 continent, and after the fleet arrives on the A-3 continent, it is now Calabaras for replenishment, but Calabaras does not have a port that can accommodate thousands of ships at all, and the fleet can only anchor in the open sea, and ships with smaller tonnage go to berth.

Calabaras is still one of the allies of the Han State, and they are part of the "Five Nations Alliance".

It may be an alliance relationship, or maybe it is useless to resist, and the official Calabaras did not want to make any military response to the arrival of a fleet of thousands of ships of all types.

"They Calabaras provide supplies to the Ceris fleet completely free of charge" Julian looked at Flavis, who came back from inquiring about the news, and asked again in a somewhat confused way: "It's completely free" Flavies nodded heavily: "Yes, it's completely free." ” The fleet returning from Rome joined the fleet along the way, and the scale was already "swollen" to the point that it was not good.

It is difficult to calculate the number of men, as there had been attrition during the voyage, and at some times new ships of the same route had been added, but the number of supplies requested from Calabaras was based on at least 150,000 men.

The right thing to do is to fill the hold as much as possible, and whether or not to throw away the supplies in the event of a situation is another matter, so the supplies provided by Calabaras will inevitably be a huge quantity.

"Has Calabaras become a vassal state of Seris?"

Julian's statement is correct, Rome also has its own vassal state, but whenever Rome needs it, the vassal state must be prepared even if it sells its underwear: "Otherwise, how can supplies worth at least 150,000 gold coins be provided for free." ” Wang Meng arrived very coincidentally, heard part of the one-sided conversation, and saw that everyone looked at him curiously, and said the correct answer: "The Han guarantees the maritime security of the country of Calabaras, and in exchange they are obliged to provide the Han with the sea consumption." ” The so-called consumption was not only a replenishment of the official ships of the Han State in terms of materials, but also Calabaras also needed to pay an annual tribute of 200,000 gold coins to the Han State.

While the contract is being made and fulfilled, the Han navy will intercept or destroy any sea forces hostile to Calabaras other than its own, and ships belonging to the country will come to the rescue if they are called for help.

To put it simply, the current relationship between Han and Calabaras is that if you collect protection money, you will definitely work.

Unless the Han Kingdom doesn't want to charge Racabaras protection money.

Calabaras was by no means the only contract maker under the hegemony of the Han State, the Lamba Jianna Dynasty on the other side of the strait, the Breoba Dynasty in the northeast, and the nearby countries with coastlines except for the annexed Gitanado, basically established a contractual relationship with the Han State between the protector and the protected, that is, the protection fee that each country needs to pay is different, the most is the 200,000 level of Calabaras, and the least is the 30,000 gold coins located in the southwest of the Asan continent.

"When we receive tribute, we will spend our gold in their country."

Wang Meng said very greatly and righteously: "Take the other and provide protection."

Use one or the other to stimulate production. ” Some people who have not rounded the bend think that it makes too much sense to say that the Han people are definitely good people.

What I figured out what was going on was that I was surprised that the hearts of the Han people were black enough, and they were doing double exploitative work.

"Heh, hehe, hehe" Julian couldn't help it at all, trying not to laugh so stiffly: "Seris is really a noble country. ” "That's nature."

Wang Meng will not feel embarrassed or embarrassed: "Because of our existence, the protected countries have unprecedented peace.

And they just need to pay a negligible price, which is completely appropriate. ” Wang Meng said that there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, the countries on the Asan Continent, they have fought each other to the death before, it was the Han army that landed in Gitanado, and it was also the Han Navy that crisscrossed the Asan Ocean, except for the members who joined the "Five Nations Alliance" to continue to fight against the Gupta Dynasty, the rest of the Asan's mutual attacks between them have all stopped.

The Han State only charges a negligible protection fee, as long as the Han State does not mean to eliminate it, the Asan people do not need to arm so many armies at all, military savings are one thing, do not have to die because of the war is another aspect, the Asan countries that have understood this truth expressed their happiness, thanks to the Han people Daddy for bringing peace that they are committed to but cannot strive for.

In fact, there is a better side, for example, the merchants of the Han Kingdom entered the three countries of Afghanistan to do business, bringing rich commodities to the Ah San, many of the goods that the Ah San can produce by themselves are sold quite cheaply by the Han people, and only the goods that Ah San himself cannot produce will be more expensive, but there is no phenomenon of forced buying and selling.

"That," Helena asked, "When will we get to Seris?"
