Chapter 221: The Pride of the Heavenly Empire
"Poof!"
Mouluo Qili knelt down straight, and shouted in his mouth: "Handsome! The last general really doesn't know about this! Handsome and clear! ”
Gao Xianzhi stared at Mouluo Qili for a moment, with no expression on his face.
"Smack!"
A soybean-sized bead of sweat slowly dripped down the cheek of the Qarluq vanguard, and after smashing crisply on the ground, it stirred up a trace of imperceptible smoke and dust.
Mouluo Qili's heart had already set off countless turbulent waves, and his back was also soaked with cold sweat, but it was not difficult for Yang Qing, who was watching coldly, to find that in addition to fear, there was a trace of undisguised deep resentment in Mouluo's eyes.
A thin stack of rice paper was handed to the eyes of Mou Luo Qili, the handwriting on it was strong and powerful, and the rules were wide open and closed, and at a glance it was known that it was done by the sword and pen officials in the army. Mouluo Qili is very fond of Chinese calligraphy, and often thinks about famous calligraphy on weekdays, and also likes to comment on other people's works. But today, he didn't have the heart to look carefully at the handwriting on the paper, and at a cursory glance, he saw that the name of Mouluo Ganda appeared on the paper closely followed by the word "big food"!
With slightly trembling hands, he took Ayiji's confession, and the more he read it, the paler his face became—it was over, it turned out to be the clan uncle who was personally plotting with the Great Food Envoy! Qarlu is closed today!
The confession slowly slipped from his hand like snowflakes, Gao Xianzhi would never have deceived himself in this matter, and in connection with the various visions in the head account in recent days and the abnormal behavior of the clan uncle, he finally understood.
"General...... What do you think about this? Gao Xianzhi spoke slowly.
Mouluo's face is like ashes: "Let Gao Gong fall!" ”
"In that case, why is the general angry?" Yang Qing suddenly interjected.
Mouluo Qili has calmed down, and when he heard Yang Qing's question, he raised his head and replied coldly: "Pity me, tens of thousands of athletes in Gelulu, who have never fought with the great cannibals in a bloody battle, but because of the confusion of plotting against the Qianda, they will be charged with the shameful crime of betraying the allies, and then incur the ruthless killing of the Anxi army!" ”
Yang Qing laughed: "Confused? Plotting to defeat General Qili, putting aside your and me's identities at this time, let's talk about the situation here. If your leader's move is not noticed by us, with the support of hundreds of thousands of Great Food Alliances, he will turn against him at the most critical point, and the defeat of the Anxi army will be inevitable, and you Ge Lulu will be able to dominate the west of the Tianshan Mountains and become a hegemon from now on! Today's matter is revealed, at most it can only be said that the luck is not good, what is the confusion? ”
A sneering smile appeared on Mouluo Qili's face: "Big cannibal? Hegemon? This general, I don't know if what you just said is sincere. If Your Excellency really thinks so, there is no one in Datang! It's not foolish to plot against Ganda! It's a pity that the commander of the Anxi Army is Gao Gong! ”
"Yang Qing is willing to hear about it." Yang Qing suddenly bowed, his expression extremely sincere.
Mouluo Qili was slightly surprised, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the Tang Dynasty generals in this account, could it be that Gao Xianzhi intends to let himself live? Otherwise, why listen to your own nonsense, wouldn't it be much happier to be slashed with a knife? Although there are many Gelulu, as long as Gao Xianzhi is ruthless and preemptively kills Ganda, how can the scattered Gelulu army be the opponent of the wolf-like Anxi army?
Thinking of this, a heart that is undoubtedly bound to lose begins to come alive again - even if there is only a glimmer of life, you must strive for it! Ants are still greedy for life, let alone people?
Immediately, if you want to fall into begging, you will have a lotus flower in your tongue, show your eloquence in your life, and be determined to say that the sky is open, the earth is cracked, the rivers are reversed, and the dead are resurrected, and you will not give up if you don't say your life back! Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Gao Xianzhi had already intercepted him coldly:
"Don't talk nonsense, say something useful."
The pride and ambition of the beggar were suddenly forced back into his stomach, his mouth opened and opened, and finally he was finally deflated.
"Yes. The last general thought that without it, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty would be unparalleled in the world. Although the big food is strong, after all, it comes from afar, the time and place are favorable, and the people's hearts are back, which is not good for it. Even if it is a temporary fluke, it is impossible for Dashi to gain a foothold in the green mountains for a long time. "Mouluo Qili came over in one breath, and his words were really incisive and capable." What's more, the heart of Tubo to the north has never died, and it is really unwise for a big cannibal to go to this troubled water. ”
Yang Qing couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, yes! Tibetan! What I didn't expect before, there is also a Tibetan Empire entrenched on the plateau in the south and has been eyeing Central Asia! Historically, after the defeat of the Tang Dynasty in Talas, it completely lost control of the Western Regions due to the ensuing Anshi Rebellion. The reason why the Great Cannibals failed to subdue the Western Regions in one fell swoop after the great victory was precisely because of Tubo, a rebellious empire that had almost single-handedly withstood the crazy attacks of the Great Cannibals for nearly a hundred years!
It's really not easy to plot to beggar! Yang Qing faintly felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart - handing over the ambitious alien tribe of Gelulu to the shrewd young man in front of him to lead, is Yu Datang lucky or more dangerous to raise tigers?
However, Yang Qing no longer had time to weigh these gains and losses that had not happened, and Gao Xianzhi was the same—in order to win the Battle of Talas, he had to use Qarluq; And if you want to use Qarluq, you must take out the Qarluq and at the same time ensure that the Qarluq army is not distracted and continue to adhere to the original covenant - those who can do this, and the only choice is to seek to defeat the beggar!
Mouluo Qili's voice was even lowered: "The confusion of Mouluo Qianda lies in the fact that no matter whether it is a big food or a Tibetan can, no matter who occupies the green ridge and loses it, there will be no determination and action to recapture it; And Datang ...... Judging by the last general, he will definitely regain his vassal country! ”
In the hearts of Gao Xianzhi and Yang Qing, a strange thing rose at the same time. Especially Yang Qing, he looks at Mouluo Qili completely differently!
The pride of Datang turned out to be more than just in the hearts of the Tang people themselves.
From Li Shimin to Li Zhi, from Wu Zetian to Li Longji, the countries of the Western Regions have undergone several changes, and the four towns of Anxi have undergone several vicissitudes; Anxi, Mengchi, Kunling...... In the past 100 years, many metropolitan protectorates have changed their names, but what has not changed is always the clear heart of Datang to protect this land.
The strong Han and the Tang Dynasty are not only in the pen of the literati, but also in the pride and ambition of Jin Ge Iron Horse!
Since the Tang Dynasty, the Western Regions have been in the Central Plains, and there is only the strangeness that is gradually drifting away, and the sighs in the dream.
Perhaps, what An Lushan destroyed was not only a powerful empire, but also a proud heart of conquest.
Gao Xianzhi didn't leave Yang Qing too much time to sigh, he had already gotten the answer he wanted from Mou Luo's answer.
"Plot to defeat General Qili! Ben Shuai wants to send you a great opportunity, I don't know, do you have the courage to accept it? ”
