Chapter 444 Xiang Zhuang Dancing Sword is intended for Pei Gong

Duolang's daughter Zhuoma was canonized as a Tibetan concubine by the Chinese emperor, and the news came out that Duolang's family was not working hard, while other Tibetan nobles behaved differently, some people were envious and jealous, and of course, some people secretly scolded Duolang, thinking that Duolang recognized the thief as his father and was a traitor and sinner in Tibet.

But no matter what, the Dorang family has received great benefits and power because of it.

Because Duolang was reused by the emperor, he became the unswerving executor of the emperor's idea of managing Tibet with the Tubo people, and became a big winner in this great turmoil and great change.

Dorang's position of power was consolidated and established.

When the Duolang family received the emperor's order, they held a feast and invited the guests to celebrate.

As a result, many Tibetan nobles aimed at the emperor and came to the palace to ask for a meeting, and some even directly brought beautiful women from their own families and a large amount of gold and silver treasures to ask for dedication to the emperor.

Zhang Xuan patiently met these nobles one by one and accepted their court meetings and gifts, but the women did not accept them.

The reason why Zhang Xuan canonized Zhuoma as a concubine was because of political considerations. In order to win the hearts of the Tibetan people, it shows the emperor's attitude of treating the Tibetan people as his subjects. Otherwise, Dolma will be made a concubine at most.

Dolma herself was a little surprised. However, for Zhuoma, she was actually unwilling to stay with the emperor, let alone live with the emperor in the Central Plains. It's just that at this point, if she doesn't know how to lift up, her family will be affected. Under the repeated advice and even pleading of his father Dolang, Dolma also accepted his fate.

An accidental evasion of pursuit led to a huge turn in her fate, which the girl Dolma could not have imagined. However, following Zhang Xuan is not a kind of luck for her.

If it is another conqueror, a Tibetan woman, if she occupies it, she will not give it if she occupies it, and she will not give it to her. But Zhang Xuan obviously won't be like this, since Zhuoma has become his woman, he will do his best to do his duty as a man.

More than ten years later, when Zhuoma's son was running around in the palace in Zhongjing, the Tibetan concubine Zhuoma realized that she was the lucky luck among countless Tibetan girls.

In a blink of an eye, October of the second year of Yongning is the season of autumn on the Tubo Plateau. Nan Jiyun led the army to fight everywhere, and the remnants of the remnants of the army in various parts of Tubo were gradually wiped out, and the entire Tubo Plateau gradually restored its calm.

Just when Zhang Xuan was about to leave for the class to return to the court, return to Hexi from Tubo, and fight against Li Gong, a news came: it was said that King Da Bolu and King Xiao Bolu led an envoy to Shenwu City to ask for a meeting with His Majesty the Emperor of China.

When Zhang Xuan got the military report, he temporarily canceled the trip and prepared to stay in Shenwu City, and wait for the kings of these two small foreign countries.

Bolu was originally a country, which was broken by the Tibetans, and was later divided into large and small Bolu ◆ Those who lived in the original place were called Little Bolu, and those who migrated to the northwest to the Gilgit place were called Little Bolu.

From the second year of Wuhou Tongtian to the Kaiyuan Dynasty, Da Bolu sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty three times. The Tang successively ordained its monarchs. In the early years of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, King Xiao Bolu was not busy because he was oppressed by Tibet, and personally entered Chang'an to express his submission to the Tang Dynasty.

Because Xiao Bolu was the main road for Tubo to attack the four towns of Anxi in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Emperor believed that Xiao Bolu was the west gate of the Western Regions and a place that must be saved. Zhang Xiaosong, the envoy of Beiting Jiedu, sent Zhang Sili, the deputy envoy of Shule, to lead 4,000 troops from the Western Regions to save him, but he did not rush to send troops to meet the great destruction of Tibet.

After that, in 722, Tang Feng was not busy as the little Bolu king. After not being careful, Su defeated the successor to the throne of King Xiaobolu, was defeated by the Tubo army, forced to surrender to Tubo, married the Tubo princess as a concubine, and the Tubo power then penetrated into the Western Regions, and more than 20 countries were all Tubo vassals. After that, the three envoys of Anxi Jiedu, Tian Renwan, Gai Jiayun, and Fumeng Lingjing, tried to defeat them three times, but to no avail. In 747, Gao Xianzhi, the deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu, was ordered to march with 10,000 horses, divided his troops into three ways to capture the whole territory of Xiaobolu, captured Xiaobolu Wang and his wife, and Tang changed its country name to Quy Nhon and set up Quy Nhon army to defend it. After this battle, the countries of the Western Regions returned to the Tang Dynasty.

In the Battle of Henglus, the Tang army was defeated by Da Shi, and Xiao Bolu and the surrounding areas once again surrendered to Tibet.

Little Bolu is a subject country of Tubo, Tubo was destroyed by the Chinese army, of course King Bolu of Little Bolu can't sit still, like this kind of small plateau country, the national strength is weak and weak, and it must be attached to a big country to survive, so King Bolu Xiao came to the court to ask for vassals, which was expected by Zhang Xuan.

But in recent decades, the Great Bolu has been breathing out of the same nostril with the Great Cannibal, and it seems a little strange that the Great Bolu King can come to worship.

In the afternoon, Zhang Xuan was dressed in the emperor's formal clothes and sat in the palace.

Guo Ziyi, Yang Lian, Nan Jiyun and other generals, as well as Duolang and other Tubo officials who surrendered, were lined up on both sides, and the envoy procession of King Bolu had already arrived outside Shenwu City.

Guo Ziyi hesitated for a moment, and went out to drag his fist, "Your Majesty, although Big and Small Bolu is a small country, after all, the person who comes is the lord of a country, and the minister is willing to go out of the city to greet His Majesty to show the prestige of the Celestial Empire." ”

Zhang Xuan smiled indifferently, "The land of projectiles, the country of cities, is not as good as my state." Guo Xiangnai is the commander of my hundreds of thousands of armies and the head of a hundred officials in a big country, and it is too worthless to be degraded to dignity and nobility. ”

Zhang Xuan's words made Guo Ziyi slightly surprised. The emperor is not so arrogant, so unusual, it seems to have ulterior motives. Guo Ziyi thought about it, didn't dare to say anything more, went back to work and stood up, and didn't say anything more.

Long.

Zhang Xuancai smiled and said, "Although it is a small country, it is a guest from afar, so you can go out of the city to greet it." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers obey." Dorang hurriedly saluted and received the order.

Zhang Xuan said again, "Nanba, you lead an army of 5,000 and go out with Duolang to greet you." ”

Nan Jiyun immediately understood what the emperor meant, and strode away with the order.

Nan Jiyun led 5,000 Shence army cavalry to stand solemnly on both sides of the Shenwu City Gate, and Duo Lang stood at the city gate with a few servants, looking at the arrival of the two teams not far away from the smoke and dust, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Zade, the king of the Great Bolu, and Su Zhan, the king of the lesser Bolu, walked almost side by side, and behind them were a procession of chariots and horses that stretched for miles, and the caravans, puffed horses, and singers and bearded women.

The two of them saw at the city gate on the horse, except for two solemn columns of soldiers, there was no emperor's guard of honor, and they couldn't help but be a little disappointed. And when he got closer, he found that the Chinese emperor not only did not personally greet him, but even the ministers around him did not appear, only the former Tubo State Minister Duolang greeted him.

In this way, Zad and Su Zhan are not disappointed, but a little ashamed.

Although they are the kings of small countries, even if they are Tibetans, they will personally greet the king of Tubo every time they come to the court. But this time, this legendary Chinese emperor turned out to be so arrogant and despise them so much.

The two turned over with gloomy faces, and Ma Duolang smiled slightly, stepped forward and hugged his fists, "The two kings Duolang have been here to greet you for a long time by order of His Majesty. ”

Duolang is the prime minister of Tibet, and he is naturally an acquaintance with King Bolu.

Su Zhan reluctantly smiled and said, "Lord Duolang, I don't know if His Majesty the Emperor of China can be in the city at this moment?" ”

Dorang nodded, "Your Majesty is waiting in the palace. ”

Zade raised his eyebrows and said with a cold smile, "I waited for the emperor to come all the way to see His Majesty the Emperor of China, but I didn't expect the emperor to be so arrogant, and only sent Lord Duolang to greet him, which is really unexpected......

Duolang sneered in his heart, and said in his heart, you are the king of two small countries, you are a fart. The strength of my Tubo country is so strong, and it has been destroyed by the emperor's army, and the land of the small and small Bolu districts, where the emperor's army goes, will become a ruin.

Duo Lang smiled indifferently, "Duo Chao is now the envoy of Yongkang Hou and Pingkang Xuanfu, and he was summoned to greet him, and the two kings also asked him to quickly follow Ben Hou into the city to worship His Majesty." ”

Su Zhan, the little Bolu king, sighed lightly in his heart, and was about to prepare to enter the city with Duolang. He is a subject country of Tubo, Tubo is destroyed, and the Chinese Dynasty is the new suzerain.

But the Great Bolu King Zad is different from the Little Bolu King, he came here to test the reality of the Chinese Dynasty, he felt that there were the green mountains behind him as an alliance, and the big cannibals as the backing, seeing the emperor so cold, he had a retreat.

Zade smiled coldly, "Lord Duolang, this king came here to make a deal with Tibet, and since Tibet has destroyed the country and no longer exists, this king will bid farewell and return to China."

Duolang's face changed, and he was about to say something, but Nan Jiyun stepped forward and looked at Zade with a cold smile, "Your Majesty is waiting in the palace, if the Great Bolu King passes through the door and does not enter, it will be disrespectful." ”

Zade raised his eyebrows and glanced at Nan Jiyun proudly, "Who are you?" ”

Nan Jiyun smiled indifferently and hugged his fists and said, "A certain family is Your Majesty driving the Marquis of Qingyuan, the Governor of Henan Soldiers and Horses, and the General of the Left Guard of the Pingbo Army, Nan Jiyun is also!" ”

Zade's face changed suddenly, and Su Zhan, the little Bolu king, was even more shocked, and hurriedly saluted Nanji Yunshi.

Nan Jiyun led the army to sweep away the rest of Tubo, and in the past few months, he has galloped across the Tubo Plateau, winning all battles and attacking everything, and his reputation has spread far and wide, until the land of Bolu is big and small. Nan Jiyun, the general of the Han army, is far more famous than Guo Ziyi, an important minister who accompanied him.

"It turned out to be General Nanda!" Su Zhan bowed for a long time, "Xiao Wang is polite!" ”

Zade also smiled reluctantly, clasped his fists in salute, and did not dare to say anything more.

These people of different races advocate force, and Nan Jiyun, a general with armor, is, in a sense, more deterrent than the emperor.

"Your Majesty ordered the Marquis of Ben and the Marquis of Yongkang to go out to greet him, and the two kings quickly entered the city and entered the palace to worship Your Majesty!" Nan Jiyun didn't care about himself and took the lead.

Zhang Xuan stood behind the throne with an awe-inspiring attitude, looking down at the big and small Bolu kings kneeling under the stage.

"Alright, you two may be seated." Zhang Xuan waved his hand.

Su Zhan and Zade sat down on the left and right, and then Guo Ziyi and others sat below.

"Your Majesty, the little king is here to worship Your Majesty, and enter the table of submission, Xiao Bolu is willing to be a vassal state of China for generations to come, and never rebel!" Su Zhan smiled respectfully, "Xiao Wang brought ten boxes of pearls and jade, 20 beauties, and hundreds of horses, and please smile at Your Majesty!" ”

Zad also smiled and offered his gift, but did not say that he meant to surrender.

Zhang Xuan looked at the two of them with a smile on his face, and said lightly, "I won't accept the gifts of the two." The land of the big and small Bolu projectiles is barren, and there are many injuries to the people. ”

"However, in my opinion, the land of Bolu is only a thousand miles, and when the name of the country is removed, it will be incorporated into the territory of my Chinese Shangbang as a subordinate∞ and the two will be canonized as kings, enjoying royal power and wealth, but they must be subject to the jurisdiction of the imperial court." Zhang Xuan waved his hand and said in a deep voice.

Su Zhan and Zade were suddenly shocked, and their faces turned red.

Zhang Xuan's fluttering words, this is to destroy the big and small Bolu countries! Go to the country name and incorporate it into the territory as a way of the Chinese dynasty, what is this not the destruction of the country?

The corners of Su Zhan's mouth trembled, and he couldn't speak for a while.

But Zade got up in a rage and said angrily, "Your Majesty, why did you say this! This king came here to meet the Son of Heaven of Shangbang, thinking that it was a good idea. But my majesty is going to my country for a hundred years, what is the difference between destroying my country? ”

"Although my Great Bolu Kingdom is small, it also carries tens of thousands of armor, and there is an alliance country behind me. If Your Majesty insists on going his own way, please forgive this king for not being able to follow him! ”

"This king takes his leave!"

Zade was about to brush his sleeves away angrily∨ Xuan sneered and suddenly turned a table, "I want to destroy your big and small Bolu between the palms of Tubo, but it's just a gesture." You can go without killing you or stopping you, but you have to think clearly, you missed the opportunity I gave you, and when my army arrives, the Great Bolu will destroy the country and destroy the clan! ”

Zade smiled coldly, hugged his fists and said, "This king is waiting for Your Majesty!" ”

Zade walked away.

He believed that the national strength was strong, and there were big cannibals behind him, and he felt that the Chinese Dynasty did not have the strength to extend its power to the Western Regions and the Green Mountains, so he was naturally a little fearless. Moreover, Zhang Xuan's "suggestion" has touched his bottom line, and destroying the country is unacceptable to him.

Nan Jiyun Huo Ran got up and was about to stop Zade, Zhang Xuan smiled loudly, "Nanba, let him go." Remember, Zade, that it will be a year or two years, and my army will be under the city of the Great Boru! At that time, I will behead you for public display! ”

Zhang Xuan's voice immediately became cold. Zade's heart trembled, but his footsteps did not stop, and he hurried out of the palace of the Tibetan king, and then mounted his horse and went out of the city, and led his escort to flee from Tibet, leaving aside all the baggage and belongings.

Zade left, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became silent and depressed, and only the rapid and trembling breathing of Su Zhan, the little Bolu King, could be heard.

Zhang Xuan slowly turned his head to look at Su Zhan, "Su Zhan, what do you think?" ”

Su Zhan was silent, lowered his head, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

Although he wanted to resist, he did not have the courage of Zade, the king of the Great Boru, and he did not have Zade's support and backing. Moreover, he was even less courageous, for fear that he would anger Zhang Xuan and throw his life here first.

"Why, didn't you hear what I said, Su Zhan?" Zhang Xuan asked lightly.

Su Zhan's heart flashed, and he secretly gritted his teeth and said, "Su Zhan is willing to submit to Your Majesty and dedicate Xiao Bolu to Your Majesty." ”

Su Zhan had the intention of not suffering the immediate loss of a hero, but it was just a sentence, and he would wait until he returned to China and see the situation. If the Chinese Dynasty is determined to destroy the big and small Bolu, then the little Bolu can only join forces with the big Bolu to fight against China together.

Zhang Xuan laughed loudly, "Okay, I remember Su Zhan's words." Come, spread my will, change Xiao Bolu to Guining, and canonize Su Zhan as the king of Guining" "The imperial court will not send someone to Xiao Bolu to set up a Taoist office, Su Zhan, don't let me down. ”

"I don't dare." Su Zhan bowed, his attitude becoming more and more humble.

"Okay, set up a banquet and wash the dust for Su Zhan!"

After the banquet, Su Zhan, the little Bolu king, took his leave and left, but he left the palace and left the city overnight and fled from Tibet.

Zhang Xuan couldn't help laughing when he got the news.

Guo Ziyi and Yang Lian looked at each other, stepped forward and asked together, "Your Majesty, this is ......?"

The two of them really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd. If you want to destroy the big and small Bolu, take advantage of the fact that the army is in Tibet, and then go north, I believe that it is not difficult to destroy such two small countries. But the emperor had no intention of sending troops"... Could it be that the emperor thought that with just a few words from himself, the big and small Bolu would be able to abandon the country and return to obedience?

How is this possible?

"Guo Xiang, Yang Lian, do you think that I am too child's to play about the big and small Bo Rule?" Zhang Xuan smiled slightly.

Guo Ziyi and Yang Lian hurriedly bowed down and said respectfully, "The minister doesn't dare." It's just that Your Majesty, the words of the little Bolu King are unreliable, although he verbally surrendered to our dynasty and promised to lead the Tu Na to surrender, but this person fled from Tibet overnight...... I'm afraid ......"

"I never thought that this big and small Bolu would surrender to our court. But these two countries, big and small, will be destroyed sooner or later! ”

Zhang Xuan said coldly.

The big and small Bolu are sandwiched between the Western Regions and Tubo, Zhang Xuan has already destroyed Tubo, and in the next step, he will attack more than 100 cities in the entire Western Regions, so how can the big and small Bolu "survive" in the future territory he planned? There is only one way to bring perdition into the territory.

"If Kexin didn't guess wrong, Your Majesty's move is to kill two birds with one stone, and the other is to lure the snake out of the hole."

Tian Kexin walked in slowly from the entrance of the hall and said with a smile, "When Your Majesty warned the Great and Small Bolu and even the nine countries of the Green Mountains and Zhaowu that if they did not accept the land and surrender, it would be a ‖ of the sǐ road, Your Majesty also wanted this Great Bolu King to ask the Great Cannibal for help." "Judging by Kexin, Your Majesty will fight with the Great Cannibal in the future and wash away the shame of the defeat of Xue Henglus!"

Zhang Xuan's eyes stared, staring at Tian Kexin for a moment, and laughed, "Those who know me, Kexin also." ”

"That's right, my move is Xiang Zhuang's sword dance intention in the Pei Gong ▲ District, and it is not in my eyes. For me, the greatest enemy of our dynasty is the Arabs, the Great Cannibals.

"If I want to pacify the Western Regions, I must sweep away the great cannibalism. If the cannibals do not retreat, the ambitions of the Western Regions will not retreat, which is not conducive to the long-term peace and stability of the Western Regions. As for the two provinces of Tibet, the big cannibals are eyeing the green mountains, and they will also become hidden dangers. ”

"Gao Xianzhi was defeated by the hands of the Great Cannibal, in my heart, this is the great shame of my Chinese state."

"I will reorganize the army, cross the green ridge, and fight the great cannibal! Promote the prestige of our Chinese country and the military might, and completely incorporate the Western Regions into the territory of our dynasty...... This war, or next year, or the year after, or beyond! But this battle is indispensable! ”

"Do you have the confidence and courage to fight with me?!" Zhang Xuan's eyes were solemn and he said angrily.

"For the first war of China, the ministers went to the soup and fire, and they did not hesitate! Long live my emperor, long live! ”

Guo Ziyi and others fell to the ground. (To be continued)
