Chapter 175: Wishful thinking

In the early morning of the next day when Zhang Liang led his troops to capture Chang'an, the Tubo general Nasimo rushed to Chang'an City. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After Zhang Liang succeeded in recruiting Tang Kuan and taking the important town of Jingzhou without bloodshed, he sent a military report to Na Ximo, who led the army to rest in Hezhou. In the military report, Zhang Liang excused himself not to miss the opportunity to capture Chang'an in one fell swoop, and told Nasimo that he would not unsaddle his horse, and march eastward from Jingzhou, and drive straight in, and was bound to take Chang'an in one fell swoop, capture the emperor of Middle-earth alive, and then personally come to Nasimo to offer victory.

After receiving this military report from Zhang Liang, instead of being overjoyed, Nasimo became suspicious of Zhang Liang: this time before sending troops north from Luo, Zhang Liang also instigated his clan sister Nazhu to come to lobby and try to persuade himself to allow him to return to Linquan, and now less than two months have passed, what is the reason for such a huge change in his attitude? If he said that he was thinking for the Tibetan court, Na Ximo would not believe it anyway, then the biggest possibility left was that Zhang Liang rekindled the desire to avenge his Zhang family, and was eager to lead his troops into Chang'an to avenge his sister, Empress Zhang.

The more Nasimo thought about it, the more he realized that his suspicions were justified, and immediately ordered his own troops to prepare horses, and only took the four generals of the Chinese army, beat the horses out of Hezhou City, and galloped eastward.

As the commander of the whole army that led his army north, before he set off from the Logos, Nasimo was specially invited by the Tubo Dalun Lange, who was ruled by Daichid Tsampu, to the Great Mansion to secretly trade in the Great Mansion. According to the results of the secret business between the two, Nasimo did not seek to occupy the entire western frontier of Middle-earth in one fell swoop, but to fight steadily and steadily, take the most geographically important prefectures of Longyou Dao, annihilate most of the Shenhe Army, the main force of the official army stationed in western Xinjiang, and then implement the strategy of using the Han proposed by Lange in the occupied state capital, cultivate forces among the local Han people that can be used by the Tibetans, and then march eastward to threaten the heart of the Middle-earth court - Chang'an when the time is ripe in the future. Lange even proposed that as long as the Scorpion Army under Nasimo occupied Shanzhou, the capital of Longyou Province, he could see the opportunity to act and create another Chang'an court in Longyou. In other words, it is necessary to set up a puppet court of the Han people in the western Xinjiang to deceive the people and create favorable conditions for the smooth implementation of the Han Dynasty.

If Zhang Liang really led the army to Chang'an non-stop for the purpose of avenging his Zhang family, then when he fulfilled his wish and avenged his personal vendetta, would he turn against each other and turn around and become an enemy of Tubo? You must know that the Zhang family has always had a reputation for loyalty and righteousness for several generations, and Zhang Liang himself only fled to Luo after an attempted palace change to avoid trouble, once the situation reverses, no one can guarantee that he will be loyal to a foreign barbarian.

When Na Simo walked into the Daming Palace with such a thought, he was greeted by the death of Zhang Liang and Ge Tan. He was shocked, and hurriedly asked several generals under Zhang Liang about the details of the two of them being killed outside the Chengtian Gate in front of the battle, and he couldn't help but be furious when he heard it, and his original suspicion of Zhang Liang also disappeared in an instant, turning into hatred for Jing Xuan, Lai Xing'er and others, and immediately ordered the three armies to launch a big rope in Chang'an City, with a deadline of three days, to be sure to find the murderer of Zhang Liang and Jing Xuan's body, and he wanted to crush their bones and ashes in public to vent their hatred.

Subsequently, accompanied by Tang Kuan and others, Nasimo traveled through various palaces and pavilions in the Daming Palace one by one, and finally selected the Xuanzheng Palace, where the emperor used to hold court meetings, as his Chinese army station. Tang Kuanben took advantage of the chaos after Zhang Liang was killed last night, but he was sent by Zhang Liang to his side, obviously as a guard, but in fact, the two Tubo soldiers who were on surveillance stared at him stubbornly, and could not get out, and were forcibly brought to meet Na Ximo early this morning.

Although Nasimo chose the Xuanzheng Hall as his Chinese army's big tent, he deliberately avoided it, did not go to the dragon seat where the emperor was sitting, and only stood in front of the steps in the hall, turned his head to Tang Kuan and asked: "Lord Tang, in your opinion, who is worthy of this position?" ”

Tang Kuan, who had been in the officialdom for many years, was suddenly asked such a sensitive and important question by Na Ximo, and his old face changed color, and his lips trembled and he couldn't answer.

Seeing that he asked casually, Na Ximo was so frightened that Tang Kuan changed his face as if he was on the edge of the abyss, and he couldn't hold back the pride in his heart for a while, and laughed on his back: "Lord Tang, although Na is not as knowledgeable as you, I also know that the one who can sit on this dragon throne must be a Han emperor, don't you say?" ”

Tang Kuan didn't expect Nasimo to give such an answer, so he dared to ask in confusion: "What does the general mean......?" ”

Nasimo put his hands behind his back and paced comfortably beside the spacious and bright Xuanzheng Palace, and said to Tang Kuan: "I, the Tibetans, have always only wanted to take back the pastures, mountains, and rivers that should belong to us from your hands, and I have no intention of exterminating the Han people. In your eyes, we are just a southern barbarian race in southern Xinjiang, if our Zampu comes to the Daming Palace in Chang'an and sits in this position, including you, Lord Tang, all the Han officials, gentry, and people will be happy and convinced?

So, the one who can sit on this dragon throne must be you Han Chinese, do you understand what I mean? ”

Tang Kuan was sweating profusely because he accompanied Nasimo back and forth in the Daming Palace, but he still squeezed out a smile from his fat face, and echoed and said: "The general's foresight and wisdom made Tang so impressed that he threw himself to the ground. Tang was willing to follow the general's side in order to serve as a dog and horse. ”

Nasimo looked back at Tang Kuan, and saw that he was so hot that the back of his neck was steaming, so he also sighed: "This Chang'an City is good anywhere, but the weather is too hot, obviously it is October winter, but the soldiers can't even wear yak skin robes. Master Tang has been an official in Chang'an for many years, tell me, the weather in Chang'an in previous years has reached the current season, and it is also so hot, is it unbearable? When he said this, Nasimo took off his coat and raised his head to wipe his sweat.

Tang Kuan was pondering the meaning revealed in Na Sima's words, probably wanting to support a Han man to be the emperor in Chang'an, it was inevitable that he would be confused for a while, and some wanted to get up, and secretly thought to himself: When I was in Bazhou, the old Taoist woman clearly said that what she gave herself was only Fenglong and Conglong, but she never said that she would turn into a dragon and become a dragon. When he was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard Nasimo change the topic and ask him about the weather in Chang'an, but he didn't have time to think about it, so he blurted out: "It's strange to say, the days in Chang'an in previous years were not like this." As soon as the words came out, Tang Kuan immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, but it was too late to redeem it. (To be continued.) )
