Chapter Ninety-Four: Inertia
After becoming the Zampu of the Tubo people, he was added with an honorific title, which is the name familiar to later historians.
Tri Song Dezan.
During his reign of forty-four years, the expansion of the Tubo people reached its peak, snatching Longyou and Hexi from the hands of the Tang people, occupying the entire Western Regions, and even competing with the Aweibo people several times for control of Central Asia, and the most beautiful of them was to attack the capital of the Tang Dynasty...... Changan.
The heroes of foreign races often mean disasters for their own people, and every time the power of the Tubo people expands, countless Han people are wiped out, because they are a serfdom society, and what they are best at is to turn the people in the occupied areas into their own slaves, and in the social structure of the Tubo people, it is a species that is even lower than livestock.
At the moment, this Tibetan hero is only a teenager, and one of his four future dogs is tied to Liu Ji's eyes, the face that has changed color because of fright, blue and red, and his lips have moved, but he has never made any sound.
"Can't answer? That's useless. Liu Ji's words were as cold as ice, which made Shang Jiezan couldn't help but tremble.
"I say, I say." He lowered his head, and his voice was much quieter: "After the death of Princess Jincheng, you soldiers have pressed the border over the years, forcing us to retreat step by step, seeing that even Qinghai can't be saved, and the envoys we sent out have all been turned away without exception, and if you want to ask the Heavenly Khan for a truce in the name of the princess, it is impossible, in desperation, we thought of this way, let Xi Xi Lang Lazan pretend to be the princess's child, for the sake of blood, maybe you can stop temporarily." β
That's why! Although Liu Ji's face has not changed much, his heart is fluctuating, no wonder there are so many unreliable speculations, obviously when this child was born, the princess had been dead for several years, and there were still people who made up those stories, and the source was actually here.
It seems that the Tang Dynasty has put enough pressure on them over the years, and it has been so big that they can be desperate, which also explains why only three years later, there will be a coup d'Γ©tat, and the Tubo people will abandon their Zampu and put a thirteen-year-old child on the throne.
The most ridiculous thing is that even if the crisis passed and the Tang Dynasty declined after the turmoil, they pressed forward step by step, and even once attacked Chang'an City, and still set up the descendants of King Jue as the puppet emperor.
It's a pity that what is fake is what is fake, and this not-so-clever lie has an eyewitness standing in front of him right now.
"Let me guess, Princess Jincheng's child, you killed you, right?"
Shang Jiezan trembled all over, and pleaded with a bitter face: "I don't know, I really don't know, at that time, I wasn't even a Dongben, and I was still fighting with you in Qinghai." β
Liu Ji can afford it, this time he didn't lie, but if you want to say that you don't know the inside story at all, it's not true, but the matter has passed, and the person concerned has passed away a long time ago, and now he is just curious, so he cheated it, and the result is as expected.
For the inside story of the Tubo people, he is not interested in knowing too much, how to deal with this person at the moment, it has become a difficult problem, this tent is not his own person, because at that time it was Yang Presuo's department that took over, and when Feng Changqing's army arrived, it was taken over by Duan Xiushi's people, although they all used Tubo dialect, but the secretary of the army who was responsible for the record, how could he not understand this enemy Chinese language?
The most important thing is that Liu Ji didn't expect that this big fish was not ordinarily big, so big that he wanted to slaughter it desperately, instead of letting Feng Changqing and them dispose of it.
At the moment, the Tubo people look dying, even if they are caught, it is likely that they will be escorted back to the capital to set up a score, although this person is not a big theory, but it is a very dangerous potential opponent, since there is a chance to solve it, how can he let it go easily.
History may not change because of a certain person, but at a critical point in time, there will always be deviations, for a result that is destined to be too bad to be worse, as long as it is a deviation, no matter how bad it is, where can it be bad, the idea is certain, Liu Ji will not hesitate, and he will not lose his life for this.
"I don't know, then I can't do it."
This sentence, Liu Ji said in Chinese, he was not sure if the secretary could really understand the Tubo dialect, after speaking, in the frightened eyes of the other party, he took a step forward, one hand pressed Shang Jiezan's mouth, and the other hand habitually stretched out to the back waist, but it was empty!
Damn, that short knife, when it was healing, was taken down by Lang Zhong.
Since there was no knife, Liu Ji immediately changed his strategy, to solve him, one pair of hands was enough, and before he could put his hands in place, a voice came from behind him, followed by messy footsteps.
"Gorou can't!"
It was too late, it was Feng Changqing who made the sound, and it was his master and boss Tian Zhen who ran over to grab his arm, in front of the big hands that waved the Mo knife like nothing, his strength was just a joke.
"Save me, please save me, I am a Tibetan nobleman, send me to Chang'an, you will make a great contribution."
Shang Jiezan is like being amnesty, with his vision, he can naturally see at a glance the official position of these people, and he has turned between life and death, where is he still a little reserved, even this sentence of asking for people is said in Chinese.
"I saw that his hairstyle was messed up and wanted to help him comb it."
Liu Ji naturally wouldn't mess around in front of them, some things seemed to be really doomed, he pretended to touch Shang Jiezan's messy hair with his other hand, and smiled indifferently.
Feng Changqing didn't smile, just a moment, he clearly saw Wulang's eyes, the murderous opportunity suddenly appeared, what was the inside story, of course it was inconvenient to ask at the moment, he glanced at Tian Zhen, who willingly let go of his hand, took Liu Ji's shoulder, and took him outward.
"You're crazy, killing people here, the envoy is still in the camp, and if something happens, Zhongcheng can't protect it."
Tian Zhen whispered in his ear as he walked.
It can be seen that this master is really concerned about himself, Liu Ji's heart warmed, and he gave him a reassuring look: "Several brothers died in his hands, a little angry, I couldn't suppress the fire for a while, and I won't be in the future." β
Tian Zhen nodded very understandingly: "The more noble his identity is, the more we can't move, send it to Jingshi, and have our own son of heaven to deal with it, you can't be angry, when you catch the Tubo people, let you slaughter and sacrifice them on the grave." β
Liu Ji acquiesced to his statement, and before going out, he glanced back, Duan Xiushi had not participated from beginning to end, and as soon as he entered, he stood in front of the secretary, holding the recorded volume in his hand, and the expression on his face was already extremely solemn.
It turns out that there are many people in the army who know the Tibetan dialect, history has its own inertia after all, and he can't take all the credit, Duan Xiushi still stands in the position in the history books, this may be the original face of history.
