When they also wanted to leave, things were not so simple. The Arabs in the whole city realized it later and now the city is in chaos.
The local people are usually the most oppressed, and now they don't want to continue to be oppressed, so these people are not idle either, and all kinds of miscellaneous work and burning have begun. The night sky suddenly became bright. Of course, this kind of brightness is not what they want to see. This is all because of the fires everywhere.
"Fight your way out and exit through the west gate."
Lord Zuo Xiang can be said to be the most opinionated. Although the road is very chaotic now, they have more than 800 guards. Under the killing of these people, they can still rush out. Of course, the chance is not great. If they don't move now, it will probably be more difficult later.
According to their original idea, they would wait for His Royal Highness to win on the front line, even if it was just a small victory, and then they could happily return to the capital, taking with them the gifts from the officials of the Anton Governor's Office and enjoying themselves, and they might even be able to get a little credit.
Let’s not think about this now. All the money has been taken away by that bastard Faisal. The life or death of His Royal Highness the Prince on the front line is uncertain. We can only escape with our lives first. As for what will happen next, we can’t think too much about it.
Normally, the Arab people bully the local people, so the local people can only endure it. After all, they were defeated. Even in their hometown, these people are third-class citizens.
But now the Arab army could not be found, including the soldiers of the Governor's Office, no one knew where they had gone. So the local people had to take revenge and avenge their grievances. They also found their long-treasured weapons and killed the Arabs on the street.
These Arabs are used to being arrogant and never take the civilians in the occupied territories seriously. Now you are so bold that you dare to draw your swords against us. If we don't suppress you, you really don't know how many eyes the Horse King has.
Many Arabs had also noticed that when such disputes usually occurred, the army or the Governor's Office would immediately come to help, hanging the rioters to teach them a lesson. But where were the people from the Governor's Office today? The army was off to the front lines fighting, but the Guards from the Governor's Office were still patrolling regularly, but today there was not a single one to be seen.
It was not until they saw a cavalry team running out that they realized, could it be that our army on the front line was defeated?
Many heads and young masters of wealthy families were tied up. When Governor Faisal went in to rob money just now, he could only tie up these people. Now these people have run out. They told the story of Governor Faisal's crimes, but no one listened. Half of the city was in chaos. The Arabs were now like rats crossing the street. As long as you are still in the city, someone will chase you and kill you.
There were originally more than 300,000 local people, but after the Arabs came, their number dropped sharply to 200,000. In addition, another 50,000 people were taken away, and their number was reduced by nearly half. How could such a blood feud be forgotten?
We have always kept revenge in mind, but we have never found the opportunity, so we can only let the Arabs be happy first. Now we have finally waited for this opportunity, but we can't find your army, and only ordinary people like you are left. If we still can't kill you, then we are too cowardly.
During the entire night of riots, about 20,000 Arab civilians were killed and the rest were all arrested. The local people felt relieved and had no other ideas about what the future would be like.
After dawn, some people became frightened when they saw the killed Arabs. After all, the Arabs had ruled them for many years, and now so many Arabs had been killed. According to the law of collective responsibility, their entire families would be killed.
We can't let the Arabs come back. I heard that the Arabs are at war with the Tang Dynasty. We fought against the Tang Dynasty before purely because we were forced by the people of the Arab Empire. If we send people to surrender now, they will definitely provide us with protection. Moreover, we have more than 10,000 Arab prisoners in our hands. If we hand them all over to the people of the Tang Dynasty, wouldn't it be a great achievement for us?
When they thought of this, some local gentry and celebrities immediately organized themselves and prepared to send people to Shiguo City to contact the Tang army as quickly as possible, and then let the Tang army occupy Samarkand City, so that they would not be afraid of the Arabs coming back.
But just as they were about to leave from the East City, an Arab army suddenly appeared in front of them. The number of people in this army was not large, at most two or three thousand, but those with sharp eyes could see that this was the guard of His Royal Highness the Prince.
This scared the locals in the city. His Royal Highness the Prince only knew how to kill people. He had killed countless people since he came to the Governor's Mansion of Anton. If he knew that we killed so many Arabs, I'm afraid none of us would survive.
"It's either you or me. We can't just stand by and watch. They must have been defeated by the Tang army. Look at their weapons. They're not in good order. Let's kill them first and fight them."
Some people immediately remembered that so many people were killed last night. These people were also brave men. Now they clenched their weapons tightly and rushed towards this army.
This was indeed Prince Salaman's army. They had gone through untold hardships to return to the city of Samarkand. According to them, they had finally reached home. Even if they could not defend the city, it would at least allow them to have a good rest. They were really exhausted along the way.
They thought these people were here to greet them, but when they got closer they found that none of them were Arabs, they were all locals, and some of them were holding weapons in their hands.
There is nothing much to say about this. It is obvious that these people have rebelled. Even if they have no more strength, they have to kill them all. They used to treat the locals as human beings, but now they have become their powerful enemies.
Both sides are fighting to survive, so there is no mercy in this war. Just swing your scimitar and chop at the other side's head...
