Chapter 920: The Situation in the Western Regions
The Western Regions are very large, and in terms of area, they are not inferior to any country in Chen Chu.
On this desert, there are dozens of countries of different sizes, and hundreds of horse thieves gather, there are dangers everywhere, coupled with the language barrier of various countries, the transmission of information will naturally not be as fast as Chen Chu.
Tang Ning couldn't verify whether the guard's words were true or false for a short time, but after thinking about it, he didn't seem to have any reason to lie to him.
And if Xiao Wan really started a war with Dayue Wusun, and the border was in flames, Tang Ning didn't think that a dozen of them would be able to reach Xiao Wan City safely.
Although the old beggar and Lao Zheng are powerful, they are human beings and not gods, they can be ten, tens, or even hundreds, but they can't be thousands of thousands, Tang Ning has seen the real battlefield, and on the battlefield of hundreds of thousands of troops, the influence of personal force is almost none.
Of course, if the old beggar and the old Zheng can infiltrate the enemy's tent among the ten thousand armies and take the head of the enemy general, personal force will still have some effect.
At this moment, Tang Ning was sitting in the so-called "palace" of the Wu Greedy Kingdom, with a jade seal in front of him, and the former lord had been imprisoned by the guards.
The former former lord of the country of Wu was successfully coup d'Γ©tat by the former lord about half a year ago, seized power and usurped the throne, and half a year later, Tang Ning also overthrew his rule.
He looked at the seal of the lord of the country in front of him, a trace of doubt appeared on his face, and then he looked at Bahar and asked, "Are you all so hasty in choosing the lord of the Western Regions, will this be fraudulent?" β
Bahar hurriedly explained: "Gongzi doesn't know, these small countries in our Western Regions are like this, the seal of the lord of the country is the only evidence to prove the identity of the lord, no matter who gets this seal, he can become the master of the country." β
He continued to explain to Tang Ning: "Small countries like Shan Huan and Wu Greed, it is extremely easy to launch a coup d'Γ©tat, and rebellions are also frequent, which will make the country unstable, and the people will suffer greatly, in order to stabilize the country, there is a seal of the lord of the country, even if those rebels rebel and do not get the seal, they are not rightful lords, and the rest of the countries do not agree with them, so that few people have made counter-plots......"
After listening to Bahar's explanation, Tang Ning finally understood what this seal of the kingdom was.
This thing is actually a symbol, a symbol of mutual recognition of these countries in the Western Regions, the person who holds the seal is the lord of the country, and the people are loyal to the lord of the country, and the lord of the country is also recognized by the countries, so even if someone wants to usurp the throne, it is a thankless thing to get the seal of the lord and not be recognized by the countries.
And even those horse thieves with more than 1,000 people in the desert are more numerous than many small countries in the Western Regions, but they are not a country.
The importance of the seal of the lord of the country can be seen.
Bahar looked at him and said tentatively: "Gongzi might as well accept the seal of the lord of the country of Wu Greed, as the lord of the country of Wu Greed, it will be much more convenient for you to act in the Western Regions." β
Bahar's words made Tang Ning quite moved, of course, he didn't want to be an emperor, the emperor of three hundred people has nothing to do, what he cares about is that he has this special identity, which is conducive to him walking in the Western Regions.
If he really faces Xiao Wan in the future, his identity as the lord of the country is equivalent to that of the lord of Xiao Wan, and their negotiations are also negotiations between countries, which will invisibly increase his heavyweight bargaining chips.
He pondered, looked at Bahar, and said, "Go and call Sadiq in." β
Sadiq is the leader of the guard, and after Tang Ning obtained the seal of the lord of the country of Wu Greed, he simply declared his allegiance to him.
Soon, a figure walked in from outside, he put one hand on his chest, bowed to Tang Ning, and said respectfully: "Sadiq has seen the lord of the country. β
Sadiq's Chinese is not bad, but there is no need for Bahar to translate, in fact, because of his close connection with Chen, many people in the Western Regions can speak fluent Chinese.
Tang Ning didn't refuse this time, because he really needed the identity of the lord of the country of Wu Greed, of course, he would not be the lord of a small country in the Western Regions for a long time, at most, he would wait until the matter on the Western Regions side was over, and then pass on the throne to others.
He looked at Sadiq and asked, "Does the Uganda country need the consent of other countries in the Western Regions to establish another country?" β
"No, I don't." Sadiq shook his head and said: "The countries cannot interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, and the matter of establishing a country is only a matter of the country of ugleness, and the rest of the countries actually often rebel, and the lords of the country change frequently......"
Tang Ning just asked casually, what he really wanted to ask was another thing.
He looked at Sadiq and asked, "You just said that Da Yue and Wusun gathered 100,000 soldiers and horses to join forces to deal with Xiao Wan, what is going on?" β
Sadiq said: "In the past 20 years, Xiao Wan's expansion is too fast, 20 years ago, Xiao Wan was still a small country with only more than 1,000 people, but now, they have mercenaries of tens of thousands, but Wusun and Da Yue, in these 20 years, it is much weaker than before, they feel that Xiao Wan has the ambition to unify the Western Regions, and Xiao Wan's footsteps must be curbed, otherwise, they will be the last to be annexed, it will be their ......"
Before Tang Ning came to the Western Regions, he had already done enough of Xiao Wan's homework.
Twenty years ago, the population was just over 1,000, and if it weren't for the abundance of beauties in the country, most people wouldn't even know that there was such a country in the Western Regions.
But now, Xiao Wan has become the biggest enemy of the Chen State, with more than 100,000 troops, and has become a real giant country in the Western Regions.
I think Emperor Chen will be happy to hear the news that Xiao Wan was besieged by Da Yue and Wusun, he likes to watch the snipe and clam fight each other, and he takes advantage of the fisherman, although Da Yue and Wusun are strong, but they have never been disobedient to Chen Guo, if the Western Regions fall into the hands of Xiao Wan, before he breathes, I am afraid that he will not be able to cure this piece of heart disease in the Western Regions.
Sadiq looked at Tang Ning and asked, "Does the lord of the country have to go to Xiaowan?" β
Tang Ning nodded and said, "I have to go." β
Sadiq sighed and said: "The lord of the country does not know, the further west the Western Regions are, the more dangerous it is, on the periphery of the desert, there are only some small countries and small groups of horse thieves, and further into the depths of the desert, there will be large countries with a population of tens of thousands or even tens of thousands, and large gangs of horse thieves have also begun to appear, even if they use all the strength of the greedy country, they will not be able to escort the lord of the country to ......."
Because of the border with the Chen State, the small countries on the edge of the Western Regions are relatively safe, and there are no large number of horse thieves who dare to be presumptuous here.
However, no matter how difficult the road ahead may be, Downing will not change his mind.
Thinking about this matter in his heart, Tang Xiaoyao walked in from outside the door.
When Sadiq saw her, he bowed respectfully and said, "Sadiq has seen the mother of the country. β
Tang Yaoyao's face turned red and asked, "What do you call me?" β
Sadiq said: "The wives of the lord of the country are naturally the mothers of the country and the concubines. β
Although Tang Yaoyao's face was red, she was secretly happy in her heart, the mother of the country is the mother of a country, and she is the mother of the main palace, but she still has Xiaoru and Xiaoyi in front of her, if Tang Ning is the emperor, she can only be counted as a concubine at most......
Then she thought that if Tang Ning was really the emperor, it would also be the Three Palaces and Six Courts, so she glanced at him with some shame and asked, "Lord of the Kingdom, I don't know how many concubines you plan to take?" β
Tang Ning heard the vinegar in her tone, and knew that Tang Yaoyao was still blaming him for messing with flowers and grass everywhere, causing her to have a few more sisters, and shook his head and smiled: "Go to the countryside and follow the customs......
There are only more than 300 people in the country, and there should not be a few people in the harem of the lord.
Tang Yaoyao glanced at Sadiq and asked, "How many concubines does your former lord have?" β
Sadiq folded his hands and counted them, and said, "The former lord of the country has a mother of the country and twenty-nine concubines......
