Chapter 1169: Dingnanban
This question is not easy to answer, and Li Yi's purpose is to subdue Meng Huo through negotiations. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but Meng Huo refused to give in, now he is just blocked by momentum, there is no way to fight with all his strength, if this question is not answered well, it is likely to arouse Meng Huo's heart to fight to the death.
However, Li Yi replied without thinking: "What are I going to do?" Quite simply, I want to spread the name of China all over the world, and the power of the Tang Dynasty will be like the sun in the sky, spreading the light to all places where the sun can shine. Such a grand undertaking will definitely not be accomplished by me alone, so we need to invite the world's heroes to participate in the grand event! ”
"......" Meng was determined to look at Li Yi, his eyes seemed to see Confucius and Mencius resurrected at the same time, and he was stunned for a while, before he asked, "Are you talking about the so-called Tang system?" Are you serious? ”
"National events, isn't it child's play?" Li Yi replied with a look of amazement on his face, "I thought that the Nanban King was a hero, so I sincerely invited him, if the Nanban King is also a person who only stares at the Huaxia Wangding, then don't say it!" ”
As he spoke, he drew the reins as if to turn away.
"Emperor Wude, slow down!" Meng Huo's heart sank, and he hurriedly shouted. thought that Li Yigan would take the risk to come to see him, and he would definitely be very patient to say a tirade to persuade him, but who would have thought that the other party's temper would be more urgent than his own, so he didn't agree with him, turned around and left.
Meng Shu didn't understand the current situation, he knew that the initiative was in the hands of the other party, and it was benevolence and righteousness to meet and persuade him to surrender, if he couldn't persuade him, it would be benevolent and righteous. In the future, people in the world will only say that they don't know what to do, and praise Corporal Li Yilixian's style.
"What does the Southern Barbarian King say?" Li Yi turned around slowly, Shicai's kind look was gone, and there was no expression on his face, but he was not angry and arrogant.
Meng Shu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Emperor Wude's reputation for keeping promises is trustworthy, but if Meng Shu leads the army to surrender, there are several obstacles, can you ask Emperor Wude to explain my doubts?" ”
Li Yi said lightly: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Meng Xu's eyes were blazing, he looked at Li Yi, and said slowly: "All of my millions of troops in the Southern Barbarians are not in the hands of Emperor Wude, although the cause of the incident is that I led the army to support Liu Bei, but if there is no Emperor Wude to invade the Southern Barbarians, it may not be like this...... This can be said to be the hatred of the country and the family, Meng Shu is the king of the Southern Barbarians, Emperor Wude is not worried about the super false surrender, and will it be repeated in the future? ”
"It's not worrying at all, it's definitely false." Li Yi replied calmly, "Nanban seems to be desolate, but it is actually quite a prosperous place. Large and small tribal countries, I am afraid that there are not more than hundreds, and the population is even larger. If someone unites the southern barbarian tribes and invades from the north, it must be very tricky, and who wants to go on an expedition? But ......"
Meng was stunned: "But what?" ”
Li Yi said with a smile: "Just like the way I have used troops over the years, if you want to succeed, you must rush forward after seeing the target, instead of being suspicious and looking ahead." If you want to achieve that grand goal, you can't achieve it with ordinary means, you can only do extraordinary things and take some risks, which is worth it! ”
Meng Shu worked hard to observe Li Yi's expression, hoping to find out something abnormal. Li Yi's words can be said to be loud and awe-inspiring, if it is from the bottom of his heart, then Meng Shu can only admit that he is infected, and he is about to be convinced.
But could this be true? Although the vitality of the Nanban is greatly damaged now, it is only the Nanban within the range of the Eight Ninety-Three Caves in Yizhou, and the number of Nanban outside the territory is more than that of the Eight Ninety-Three Caves, and it is not a problem to integrate hundreds of thousands of troops at all. Is there really such a selfless person in this world?
He really didn't believe it.
However, no matter how he observed, there was no trace of hypocrisy in that resolute countenance.
Li Yi said with a smile: "Actually, the Nanban King doesn't need to be suspicious, the reason why I dare to do this is because I know that the Nanban King is not a person who abolishes the public for personal reasons." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Meng Shu was slightly stunned.
"This is for the Southern Barbarian King himself." Li Yi's eyes looking at Meng Shu were quite meaningful, "The Southern Barbarian King asked himself, is the enmity between us really necessary to be avenged?" ”
Li Yi's words were amazing, not to mention Meng Huo's brothers, even the generals of the Tang Army were taken aback, and they couldn't figure out whether Li Yi wanted to turn his face with Meng Huo, otherwise why would he say such inexplicable but extremely hurtful words?
Meng Shu stared at Li Yi deadly, his eyes became extremely complicated, fierce, angry, surprised, and with a hint of doubt.
Meng You was very nervous, for fear that his brother would suddenly break out, he really didn't want to continue fighting, too many people around him had died, and the enemy on the other side was someone he couldn't hate.
In the midst of the tension, the passage of time seems to slow down.
I don't know how long it took, Meng Shu suddenly laughed.
"Second brother, you ......" Meng You had never heard his brother's laughter like this, in his memory, his brother was a domineering and hearty person, who would laugh out loud, and he was also arrogant and domineering, it was impossible to make this kind of terrifying sound like a night owl, which was eerie and terrifying to hear.
In the midst of the miserable laughter, Meng Shu said hesitantly: "Emperor Wude is worthy of being Emperor Wude, just talking about this ability to perceive people's hearts, Meng Shu is beyond his reach." ”
Li Yi didn't answer, just looked at Meng Shu quietly.
This smile was almost a pillar of incense, and when Meng Shu stopped laughing, he said to Li Yi: "Emperor Wude, I don't know how you can see through this matter, but the eldest husband is above board, since you are right, this matter will be revealed, okay?" ”
"Very good." Meng nodded in response.
It's not hard to guess at all. In another time and space, Zhuge Liang also beat the Nanban very badly, even worse than now, but Meng Shu finally surrendered to Shu Han, and was loyal all his life and did not betray Shu Han. It can be seen from this that Meng Huo didn't take any national hatred seriously at all.
With foresight and practical contact, Li Yi effortlessly guessed the reason.
………………
With the surrender of Meng Shu, the Tang army also smoothly entered Sanjiang City.
The Tang army did not disturb the people, but helped the Southern Barbarians. The Nanban people fully felt the enthusiasm of Datang and were full of expectations for joining Datang.
And the cave masters and chiefs of the various departments are also imaginative, so the Central Plains is so prosperous, when they get there, how do they start to enjoy the glory and wealth? Every day, they went to greet Emperor Wude and asked when they would be able to leave for their homeland in the Central Plains. The scorching heat and desolation of the Nanban, they couldn't stay for a day.
If it was him, these cave lords and chiefs would never dare to go to Jicheng, but the Tang Dynasty has already set a precedent for various ethnic groups in Liaodong and the desert, and people have already begun to enjoy happiness in Jicheng, so these people in Nanban can't wait to go quickly.
Li Yi asked Meng Jie and Yang Feng to be responsible for the statistics and records, collecting the household registration information of all the Nanban tribes, the location and so on.
When Meng Jie came up with statistics and was in line with the Jicheng Military Aircraft Department, Xun Yu and others naturally made a specific merger plan. The dispatch of garrisons, the dispatch of officials, and the construction of town yamen are all things that come naturally, and all that is needed is time.
The hearts of Xu Maogong and Liu Bowen were full of awe for Emperor Wude, and they also had a heartfelt pride in the Tang Kingdom. From ancient times to the present, it was the strongest time of the Han Dynasty, and it was actually the land of the thirteen states. There has never been a king who actually ruled over a land and a nation that could be compared to Emperor Wude.
However, there is a huge regret in this, that is, there is no unification in the country, and there is also a Dongwu entrenched in Jiangdong and Jiaozhou.
The real reunification of the country will be no less than the grand event of the founding of the Tang Dynasty and no less than the grand event of Emperor Wude's accession to the throne.
"Soochow!" Li Yi thought about it.
Now, Dongwu is preparing to use surprise soldiers to attack Jicheng, in a vain attempt to find an opportunity to turn the tables. But Li Yi was very confident that the garrison of Jicheng would crush the conspiracy of Eastern Wu.
Before, when Meng Huo did not surrender, Li Yi was still a little worried, after all, keeping Meng Huo's rebel forces was a variable. Li Yi hates variables and is used to holding everything into his hands.
However, when Meng surrendered and completely pacified the Southern Barbarians, Li Yi was not in a hurry at all. Because he had thoroughly grasped the situation, no matter how much Soochow used all kinds of tricks, it would be useless.
Therefore, at this time, Li Yi is also in the mood to learn about the situation outside Yongchang County.
As far as Li Yi knows, parts of Yongchang County are already outside the borders of later generations. And the area outside Yongchang County, it must have completely crossed the borders of later generations.
Through the news obtained from the summary of the tribes of the Nanban, the west of Yongchang County is now the Panyue country, also known as the Hanyue, thousands of miles southeast of Tianzhu, the west and the Daguang country, the Cheli country as the neighbor, the north and the Faqiang country as the neighbor, the east and the Ailao country as the neighbor, and the south and the Xuyue department as the neighbor.
The Han and Yue kingdoms were roughly equivalent to the later Indian states of Nagaland, Manipur, and Mizoram, as well as the northern Sagaing Province and Chin Province of Burma, and the eastward power of the Han Yue Kingdom once reached Kachin State in present-day northern Burma. Located in the west of the Hanyue Kingdom, which is equivalent to the western part of present-day Assam and Meghalaya in India, Cheli is also a country founded by the yellow race.
To the south of Yongchang County, there are the Shan and Biao kingdoms.
The Shan State, also known as the late Taguang Kingdom, was a military democracy established by the remnants of the Ailao Kingdom (early Taguang Kingdom) in the upper reaches of the Irrawaddy River.
The country of Pyu is an ancient state established by the Pyu people in the valley of the Irrawaddy River. The capital of the Pyu Kingdom was degraded, near the lower reaches of the Irrawaddy River in present-day Burma. In addition, the "New Tang Dynasty Book" also records different names such as Zhu Bo, Tuluo Zhu, and Tuli Di. Tang Dynasty documents record that the capital of the Bi Kingdom was a circular brick city with a circumference of 160 li and 12 gates.
