Chapter 014: My Name, the Shadow of the Tang Dynasty

Sue threw up a storm over Shana.

It is not surprising that there are rich and idle knights who travel thousands of miles to find someone to compete, and there is a long historical tradition in the Zhaowu countries, and the knights with high martial arts, even if they are opponents who come to challenge, or even enemies who have fought each other, will be warmly welcomed. If he can defeat the masters of his country, he will also get applause, and of course, after the applause, more powerful masters will appear to defeat him, so as to leave the glory in his country or city.

However, for the Central Cao people to challenge the Eastern Cao people, this is not an ordinary competition, and there is a battle of intent and qi in it.

Although the Dongcao people are not as angry as the Zhongcao people, they also have no good impression of the Zhongcao people. The Zhong Cao people are aggressive, even among the martial states of the Zhaowu Dynasty, the Zhong Cao people are the most aggressive. Because of the slightest triviality, they can beat their heads to the brink without relenting, which is a bit excessive in the eyes of the Sogdians, who put profit first and advocate harmony and wealth.

The goal of the competition is to compete in skills, not to fight for spirit.

Li Zaixing fights for the beauty, it doesn't matter, but for the sake of the Zhongcao people to challenge the Dongcao people, this is related to the face between the East Cao and the West Cao, no one dares to be careless, and no one wants to lose to Li Zaixing.

However, the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, these days, under the deliberate propaganda of the person of Bahan, Li Zaixing's great name has suddenly risen, almost mythical, and no one dares to despise him.

The news reached the ears of the king of Dongcao.

Shea Hu was worried at the time, and when he heard the news, he stood up and was surprised: "When did Zhong Cao get involved with the Tang people?" ”

The courtiers around him were also inexplicable and confused.

Cao was divided into three Caos, eastern, middle and western, and only Xicao was officially recognized by the Tang Dynasty. Dong Cao established the country for more than 200 years, Wu Dezhong, Dong Cao once went to the Tang Dynasty with Kang Guo to pay tribute, and left a good story at that time, the envoy of Dong Cao said to Tang Gaozu: "The country takes the minister as the Jian'er, and the king of Qin is martial and wants to be under his command." "The Tang Dynasty recognized that Dong Cao, like Xi Cao, was an independent country, but diplomatically, the Tang Dynasty only recognized Xi Cao, with Xi Cao as the representative of the Cao State, and in the first year of Tianbao, only the king of Xi Cao was canonized as the king.

Originally, the influence of the Tang Dynasty in the Hezhong region was limited, and it didn't matter if it was canonized or not. But now the situation has changed, the Turkic people and their descendants who were originally dominant in the river were defeated under the joint attack of Da Shi and Da Tang, and the Hezhong region is about to become a battlefield between Da Shi and Da Tang, and Dong Cao is no exception, and a suzerainty must be chosen between Da Shi and Da Tang. No one wants to be a two-legged sheep by a big cannibal, and they all want to be attached to Datang, so whether they can get the canonization of Datang at this time is very important.

When the New Year was approaching, Shea Hu was thinking about whether to send an envoy to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute, and when he heard that there was a Tang man Li Zaixing who was famous in Bahanna, he moved his mind and wanted to wait for Li Zaixing to set up a relationship with Li Zaixing when he passed through Su Xiangshana, and see if he could have a relationship with the Tang people like Bahana King Asirand Dagan. I never thought that Li Zaixing was here, but he wanted to challenge the East Cao people for the Zhongcao people.

What does it mean that you can't be careless? Even Zhongcao, who is about to die, is standing with the Tang people, but I, Dongcao, am still outside the Tang Dynasty? He came to challenge the life, isn't it that the Tang people are dissatisfied with my disrespect, and want to use the power of Bahanna and Zhongcao to attack me?

People in different positions see things from different perspectives. The Shakir who came out to welcome only thought of the grievances between Dongcao and Zhongcao, but as the king, Sheahu had to consider whether the Tang Dynasty was dissatisfied with Dongcao and took this opportunity to beat.

……

Li Zaixing didn't think about it so much. He just wanted to take the opportunity of the martial arts competition to show off his prestige to prove that he was worthy of being followed by the Zhongcao people. After Su to Shana, and then four hundred miles to the west, between the city of Samad (Kangguo) and the city of Tuozhi (Shiguo), is the Zhongcao region. It had been more than half a month since he arrived in Bahan, and it was said that the Zhongcao people should have heard his name, and no one had been sent to contact him at this time, and he was very worried that Adar's lobbying work would not progress, so he wanted to take this opportunity to take the initiative to create opportunities.

Of course, it was also one of the purposes to vent evil anger for Al Maidi, although he also knew that it was a bit inexplicable and not a mature political performance, but he was never a mature politician. At the end of the day, he is still a martial artist, even a little impulsive.

Al Maddie is willing to protect him with his life, be his guardian angel, and return the favor, but he can't cower and look ahead. What's more, he was not a forward-looking person in the first place.

Li Zaixing did not enter the city, but stopped at the gate of the east city. There were more than thirty of them, forty or fifty camels and horses, which were already attracting attention, and with such a thing, it didn't take much to become the focus of attention.

There are more and more people watching the excitement, some come to the competition, some come to see the competition, and more are watching the Tang people.

Needless to say, Datang is one of the most powerful countries in the world today. If we want to add the factor of the degree of civilization, then we have to remove the word "one". For the nine kingdoms of Zhaowu in the Hanzhong region, Sassanid Persia has become history, the Turks are nomadic people, the Tibetans are barbarians herding sheep, and the great cannibals have made great achievements, but they have not separated from the ranks of the barbarians, and the Turks and Tibetans are on a par with the Turks and Tibetans.

The only one who can really be called civilized is Datang. The most obvious example is that the silk they rely on for their livelihood comes from the Tang Dynasty, which is undoubtedly the most beautiful clothing in the world, and the Tang culture is also the most elegant culture in the world. The Sogdians got rich by selling silk, and they were well aware of the wealth and power of the Tang Dynasty, and psychologically, they were also closer to the Tang Dynasty.

It's just that the Tang people are very reserved and have been unwilling to set foot in the river on a large scale. Except for the Sogdians, who often traveled to and from the Tang Dynasty to do business, the vast majority of people did not have the opportunity to meet the Tang Dynasty. It's a long way, not everyone can afford it, and people with such strength are a minority after all. In the eyes of ordinary Sogdians who have never been to the Tang Dynasty, going to the Tang Dynasty is tantamount to a pilgrimage, the Tang Dynasty is full of gold and silk, and the Tang people are tall and mighty, elegant and calm, far from being comparable to those barbarians on horseback. And once they are angry, they can also destroy the city and kill people.

The battle of Bakhana more than 30 years ago is still a legend, and the recent news of the king of the mountains, Da Po Xiao Bolu and Shu Shi, is the most vivid proof.

A few years ago, the Tang princess married Asirota Dagan, and the huge dowry team passed through Su to Shana, which was a topic that the Dongcao people talked about for several years.

Now, there are Tang people who have appeared in Su to Shana, and they have to challenge the warriors of Dong Cao, which is a good show that cannot be missed.

To be honest, Datang's current status is a bit like the superpower of the United States in later generations, Li Zaixing is now like a Yankee, even if he is an ordinary person at home, when he goes abroad, he also has the capital to go sideways, and it is difficult to keep a low profile.

The scene was a bit big, which made Li Zaixing himself a little embarrassed.

Almadi was proud of it.

There are too many onlookers, and the east city gate is crowded to the brim, with three layers inside and three layers outside, which seriously affects the entry and exit. Li Zaixing was unwilling to be a vicious dog in the way, so he took the initiative to give up the city gate and set up a tent on the south side of the city gate. Despite this, the traffic situation at the city gate was still not optimistic, which made the soldiers guarding the city gate very nervous.

One after another, people came to challenge, and they were all picked up by Li Zaixing one by one without exception. Li Zaixing was very measured, knowing that it was okay to compete, but it was completely unnecessary to hurt people, so he just picked the other party off the horse, did not hurt anyone, and did not even see a drop of blood, and won a cheer.

However, as the knights who challenged one after another fell off their horses, the mood of the Dongcao people became a little heavy. If Li Zaixing really defeated all the Dongcao warriors, wouldn't the Dongcao people be disgraced? It's a question of a country's face.

At this time, even if Li Zaixing wanted to leave, Dongcao people couldn't let him go.

Next to the tent of Li Zaixing and others, there were many knights cruising on horseback. They all have heavy faces and serious expressions, and when they look at each other, they will sigh in unison.

……

Sheahu was also sighing.

In half a day, Li Zaixing defeated more than a dozen Dongcao masters one after another, almost without exception, and won or lost in a single match. Although it didn't hurt anyone, it also showed Li Zaixing's superb martial arts. Now that the entire Su is spreading this matter, Dongcao's face is lost, but Shea Hu can't think of anyone who can save the situation.

It's not a war, you can't fight, but you can ask for help. It's just a competition, and if Dong Cao wants to ask outsiders for help, it will be a little embarrassing. If it's just a competition, then that's fine, if you lose, you lose. Now it is about the relationship between Zhong Cao and Cao, whether it is light or not, whether it is heavy or not, it really makes it impossible for Shi Ahu to deal with it. And Li Zaixing's actions behind him made him dare not take it lightly.

Shea sighed with sorrow, and pulled a few of his beards off.

The vice-king Kuleba hurriedly walked in, and when he saw Sheahu's appearance, he hurriedly said, "Great King, are you worried about the martial arts competition outside the eastern city?" ”

"Not really." Shea Hu smiled bitterly: "Vice King, you say, could this be that the Tang people are dissatisfied with us?" ”

Kuleba also smiled bitterly: "I just remembered something, and I came to remind the king. ”

"What's the matter?" Shea Hu asked nervously.

"I don't know if the king still remembers, but the princess Cao Ye of the former king of Zhongcao hasn't shown up for several years."

She'a was stunned for a moment, was silent for a long time, and suddenly slapped her thigh: "There is a teenage maid beside her, who is also good at using guns, and her name is Cao Yueji, as if she has a Persian name, she is called Al Maidi." To put it this way...... Cao Ye may have gone to Datang? ”

Kuleba nodded, a look of helplessness.

Sheahu took a few steps back and sat on the throne with his eyes glazed.

The princess of the Tang Dynasty married King Bahanna, and the princess of Zhongcao entered the Tang Dynasty, these two things are connected, and it doesn't seem like a good thing no matter how you look at it. Don't...... Datang is going to attack me Dongcao? ……
