The new month begins, so ask for a monthly pass "This Persian is too unhuman, how can he sell his daughter.
With the money from selling their daughters, can they use it with peace of mind?"
Wei Chigong said dissatisfiedly.
Zhang Chao just said very ordinarily, "Isn't there too much selling children and daughters, in the past years of the Tang Dynasty famine, people often had to sell their sons and daughters in order to survive. ” Zhang Chao told Wei Chigong a story.
"A rebellion swept the world, and there were ruins everywhere, famine and people were left without food.
A couple went into the city to buy food to feed their young children.
But when you go all over the grain market, you can't afford to buy a liter of grain.
In the end, the woman had no choice but to sell herself, and let her husband take the money to buy food, so that he could take care of the children. ” The husband took a handful of money from a vicious man and watched as his wife was dragged away by the man with a straw rope around his neck.
The wife staggered, turning back one step at a time. ” When Zhang Chao told this story, his tone was very low.
Wei Chigong's heart was very blocked when he heard it, "Then what?"
"And then what else can be done For this man, either all three of them starved to death, or sold their wives and children to buy food and went home, maybe they could hold on for a few more days."
The husband took the money and went back to buy grain, but he went to many grain stores, but he couldn't buy any grain, because the price of grain had risen again.
His wife sold the money she had exchanged, and she couldn't afford to buy food.
Now the grain, with gold and other heavy selling prices. ” The helpless man angrily wanted to find the traffickers and ransom his wife.
But after searching for a long time, he couldn't find it, and finally he met someone selling human flesh.
The price of human flesh is much cheaper than food, and thinking of the hungry child at home, this man who could not find a wife, finally had no choice but to buy a piece of human flesh and go home.
He walked back with the piece of human flesh, and when he reached the gate of the city, he suddenly found a birthmark on the piece of meat.
"That's his wife's birthmark."
The eyes of the few people who listened to the story widened.
The man ran back like crazy, and he ran to the stall that sold his meat.
Sure enough, he found a head under the meat stall, which belonged to his wife. ” Silent.
And heavy wheezing.
Wei Chigong and Shopkeeper Liu both gritted their teeth, they were extremely angry.
"And then" "Then the man took his wife's body and tried to run home, but he was slaughtered and killed, and his flesh was cut up and put for sale, and his head and his wife's were thrown away."
Shopkeeper Liu vomited.
"Actually, it's just a very ordinary story, really, you flip through the history books, and there are stories of cannibalism everywhere.
When the Wuhu was in turmoil, they killed people and ate people, and ate a lot of people as military rations.
Recently, Zhu Cang, the puppet emperor of Chu at the end of the Sui Dynasty, also liked to catch children and kill them to eat, and the Chu army he led did not cultivate or defend the city, looted and killed people everywhere, killed people with salt, and took them with the army, and ate wherever they went. ” Wei Chigong nodded.
Of course Zhu Cang knew that he was still Wang Shichong's ally back then. rampant in Henan, I don't know how many people were killed and how many people were eaten.
In fact, the story that Zhang Chao just told happened in real times, and it is recorded in the history books.
It was an event in the late Tang Dynasty, when the feudal towns were divided, wars were frequent, and the people were struggling to make a living.
Many salt dealers, such as Wang Xianzhi and Huang Chao, rebelled.
Among these heroes of the late Tang Dynasty, there were many man-eating demons, such as Huang Chao, who built many machines to grind people into meat sauce.
For example, Qin Zongquan covered people with salt to kill people as food for the army.
Even in the late Tang Dynasty, the most famous fierce general, Feihuzi Li Ke, once killed people to make military rations when he was fighting.
Also, during the Anshi Rebellion, Zhang patrolled Suiyang, with thousands of soldiers and horses, more than 400 battles before and after, and 120,000 soldiers, holding Suiyang for ten months.
In the end, all the bark of the people, horses, mice and trees in the city was eaten, and none of them fell.
By the time the city was broken, there were only thirty-six people left in the city, and none of them had surrendered.
The Battle of Suiyang was really a bloody battle to defend the city by eating people.
Zhang Xun even gave his concubines to the soldiers who defended the city.
Cannibalism, open the history books, cannibalism everywhere.
Why cannibalistic wars, famines.
Since the beginning of the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, the prosperous era of Kaiyuan was turned to ashes overnight, followed by more than 100 years of chaotic war.
The Tang Dynasty, which started from the Anshi Rebellion, was never strong again.
The capital was breached again and again, and the world was divided by feudal towns.

There is the dictatorship of eunuchs inside, and there are feudal towns outside, and there is no day of peace in the world.
Even after the end of the Tang Dynasty, there was a rebellion of five generations.
There are also Khitans, party items and other rising chaos.
"The war is the most tragic, look at these orchids, they were nobles, but they had to leave their homeland and come here, although the Tang Dynasty is prosperous and rich, but it is not their home.
They became slaves, and even had to sleep with them in order to dance and laugh. ” "Look at this prosperous Yangzhou City, the capital of millions of people, but do you know how many slaves there are under this prosperity, some of them are from the mountains in the south of the Tang Dynasty, some are from the grasslands around the Tang Dynasty, and some are from the more distant Nanyang and Taixi, we enjoy peace and prosperity, but they can only work hard underneath, day after day."
"Even if the Tang Dynasty issued a law to give them the minimum protection, many slaves could not redeem their freedom throughout their lives, let alone find wives, and they were not even qualified to marry wives or have children.
Datang gave them this qualification, but they didn't have this ability. ” "Every year, the number of slaves in Datang is increasing, at least two million per year, but there are also a large number of slaves dying every year."
"Some of these slaves were only mountain barbarians, some were tribal chiefs, and some were imperial nobles.
But when they lose their country, they are just the most pitiful slaves.
They have no backing, no one to back them up.
No matter how good Datang's laws are, they won't really protect them. ” "Among the 10,000 slaves, it is difficult for one to truly integrate into the Tang Dynasty and become a Tang Hanmin.
They are the white bones under the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. ” Zhang Chao's words are very straightforward, but they are very real.
Why are the people of Datang living so well, the poorest people in the past can now become yeoman farmers and own land industries Why are these slaves so miserable, they give more than anyone else, but they get less than anyone else?
Even in the same mine, the same work, a Tang man and a slave are paid completely differently.
"There are even many, many worse than those slaves in the sun, who are the black slaves.
Those black slaves are not long black slaves, but those black slaves who are not registered and are hidden.
These people are treated even worse, they don't even have basic personal rights, they have no private property, they are beaten and scolded, or even killed, they are just tools that can speak.
Many black slaves entered the mine to prospect for mines, and they had no chance to see the sun again. ” Zhang Chao said so much to Wei Chigong, in fact, he also wanted to say that today in Datang, all this is not easy to come by.
He cherishes all this, and no one wants it to be changed.
And no one wants to go to war.
"Wei Chigong, I know you haven't been able to understand why the Emperor lost the Dharma Protector War.
It's not about loyalty, it's about people's hearts.
Everyone doesn't want to see this good situation change back, everyone doesn't want to fight again, and no one has a good life at war. ” Why did Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin oppose Emperor Taishang, and why did even Fang Xuanling and eldest grandson Wuji oppose Emperor Taishang It's not about loyalty.
It is not us who betrayed.
It's the Emperor.
The emperor betrayed everyone, betrayed the world, he wanted to change, he wanted to change such a prosperous world back to the past.
Who will I Zhang Chao refused Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin, Shan Xiongxin, Luo Shixin, and Niu Jinda refused to do so.
Binh Duong refused.
Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, eldest grandson Wuji, and Ma Zhou also refused.
It is better to commit the rules of heaven than to the wrath of the public.
When everyone refused, the emperor still wanted to go his own way, do you think he can succeed?
"Let's go to the Americas and develop there with peace of mind.
It's so big there, don't think about coming back.
The comeback and comeback are just a bubble.
Even if one day you really have 100,000 soldiers and horses, and 1,000 warships, don't come back, no one will welcome you. ” Wei Chigong lowered his head and did not speak.
"Duke Yu Chi's loyalty to the emperor is admirable, but last time, the loyalty between you and Xu Maogong was just foolish loyalty.
You are loyal to the Emperor, but you have betrayed the people of the world. ” "Don't talk about it, I don't want to hear it."
Wei Chigong roared, and the green tendons on his neck protruded.
The Persian next to her trembled with fright.
Even the shopkeeper Liu didn't dare to move on the side, and after listening to so many things that shouldn't be heard, he couldn't wait to have a crack to escape.
"Okay, a few more words for a while.
Let's go, I guess you're not in the mood to stay any longer.
Zhang Chao called the shopkeeper Liu, "These four Persian girls said to the owner here and took them away." ” When he went out, Wei Chigong didn't want to deal with Zhang Chao, so Zhang Chao said goodbye to him.
He asked Shopkeeper Liu to arrange a carriage for Wei Chigong, and even the four Persian girls were given to her together.
"King Zhao, where are you going next?"
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
shopkeeper Liu asked cautiously after making proper arrangements.
"Arrange a carriage, I'd like to go to the docks."
An ordinary carriage, Zhang Chao slowly watched along the dock.
On the docks, ships come in and out, and countless goods are loaded and unloaded.
Most of those who loaded and unloaded the goods were slaves, not only the dark-skinned Kunlun slaves, but also many Persian slaves, and even the Germanic barbarian slaves in Europe, Goguryeo slaves, Turkic slaves, and so on.
No matter what skin color, what country or race, at this time, they are here, and they have only one identity, the slaves of the Tang Dynasty.
In order to earn their daily salary, they have to work hard.
For that slim chance of freedom, they had to grit their teeth all the time.
But there will not be many who can really survive that day.
"Let's go back."
Zhang Chao knocked on the carriage, and the shopkeeper Liu, who personally drove the carriage, immediately drove the carriage.
Maybe you have too many worries, and you should speed up your pace and don't have so much time to procrastinate.
It is best if the undertaking can understand it, and if it cannot be understood, it must also be implemented. t1706231537:
