Chapter 119: Transactions
"Your Excellency, I have answered your questions, and now we should get down to business."
Seeing that Bo Xilin and many of the earth kings west of the Green Ridge were successfully fooled by themselves, and their goals were achieved, Xiao Quai's illness was immediately stopped. The best way to keep a sense of mystery is to be awe-inspiring.
So Xiao Quai's words changed and went straight to the point: "How about we make an exchange?" ”
"What exchange? Can you call the shots? ”
"My eldest brother Anxi Jiedu has given me full authority to do so, so you don't have to worry about that." Xiao Qubing didn't lie to him about this, the situation has developed to this point, and Gao Xianzhi can't cope with it very well, because he really doesn't know much about Hezhong, especially the Khorasan region. So as soon as Xiao Qubing told him the general idea, he gave Xiao Qubing full authority to do it.
Xiao Quzhi smiled and said, "The exchange is to exchange your life for you to help me do something." ”
"What's the matter?" And Po Silin had roughly guessed what Xiao Qu wanted him to do, which was why he was willing to take the initiative to find Xiao Qu sick.
"I want to help Sassanid Persia recover, and because of you, most of the Persians in Khorasan have converted to Huda. Now I want them to revert to the Great Light, and I need your help. ”
"You want to split the Black Eater, I am the Governor of Khorasan in the Black Eat, why should I help you?"
"You're my captive now, you're nothing." Xiao Quzhi smiled: "Of course you can not help me, but in that case, you will be useless to me, I will kill you immediately!" ”
"Then you're going to kill me." And Posilin thought to himself, "If you want to kill me, why would you say such a thing to me?" He is also a masterpiece in the world, sophisticated, cunning and wise, and Xiao Qubing is far worse than him in this aspect.
Fortunately, however, he had thousands of years of knowledge and learning more than J. Posilin, and was well versed in this history. It's equivalent to a cheater, and now he has won the battle again and has taken the initiative.
Xiao Qu was stunned for a moment, looking a little angry and said, "Your Excellency the Governor might as well listen to me finish my plan, and it's not too late to make a decision." ”
After Pu Shang finished translating, Xiao Quzhi cleared his throat and continued: "His Royal Highness the King of Persia, you may be unhappy to hear the following words, but please believe that this is what I really think." Everything I did was not for Persia, but for the Tang Dynasty.
Sassanid Persia will not be restored, and we do not have a relationship with Kaiyuan Tongbao, everything I do is to fight the black clothes. Now I have defeated more than half of Khorasan and Mulu City, and I have dealt a heavy blow to the main force of the Black Clothed Food.
According to my estimates, there should be no more than 60,000 religious warriors in Khorasan at the disposal of Abu Abbas, right? The Black Clothes Great Food has just been established, the people's hearts are still extremely unstable, the internal Shia and Hawariji rebellions are continuous, the prestige of Abu Abbasid is actually very low, few people obey him, the Great Cannibal is originally fond of infighting;
The external situation was even worse, the battle in the river was lost, Khorasan was lost again, and the main force of more than 100,000 troops was almost completely annihilated. To the west, the Egyptian campaign was not yet over, the white-clothed remnants were still active, and the Byzantine army was on the border. As you can testify, I sent someone to Byzantium a month ago to inform them of the situation and ask them to send troops to attack Syria.
Therefore, the black clothes are now internal and external troubles, and if there is no battle in the river, you can still try your best to solve the problems one by one. But now you have lost both in the river and in Khorasan, and more than half of the empire's army has been wiped out by us. The black-clothed food is hit by this, and it is very likely that it will perish on its own without me doing anything else, do you agree? ”
And Bo Xilin gritted his teeth and didn't speak, and he had to admit in his heart that Xiao Qubing was right. And Bo Xilin's heart is so dead, unspeakable grievances and resentment, how can he know these extremely secret inside affairs so clearly? He has such a powerful weapon in his hand. It's not that I can't do it in his hands, it's really ...... Heaven bless me, bless my enemies.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Xiao Quzhi continued: "So if I continue to attack the black-clothed Great Food, the black-clothed Great Food will die." If I don't fight him, in a short time he won't be able to take Khorasan. According to what I know, there are still about a quarter of the people in Khorasan who believe in the Great Light God, more than half of them are devout to Huda, and the rest can change their faith at any time.
Now that there are no reinforcements coming over from the Great Eclipse, the soldiers under your command have almost been wiped out by me again this time. So I have enough time and enough ability to take down the whole of Khorasan and kill all those who do not obey me. Including Khorasan prisoners of war captured in this battle and in the middle of the river. Then support a Persia that believes in the Great Light God with the Tang Dynasty as the suzerain.
But I don't want to do it yet, everyone in the Anxi Prefecture knows that I am a benevolent and good person, and I don't want to kill too many people, and I treat so many prisoners of war with kindness. But if His Excellency the Governor does not cooperate, I really do not mind learning from His Excellency the Governor, as you did in the river last year, and you shed a river of blood in Khorasan. After killing all these people loyal to Hu Da, Khorasan will naturally be able to settle down. And these people are all dying because of you! ”
After listening to Xiao Quai's last words, the sweat on Bo Xilin's forehead came out. If he stood in Xiao Quai's position, killing all the prisoners of war and killing a river of blood in Khorasan would be his first choice without even thinking about it. This was indeed the simplest and most effective way, and he now wondered why Xiao Qubing didn't do it.
And Posilin suddenly found that his reliance became very ridiculous, and if Xiao Quai's sudden change of mind, he would have no chance to surrender even if he wanted to. For such a worldly hero, he actually looks very lightly at faith or something. What he values is power, the ability to do a career vigorously, the joy of leading thousands of armies across the world, the climb up to get ahead, and the ability to make countless people crawl and tremble under his feet.
Therefore, for the sake of his position, he did not hesitate to kill his old superior, who was also the son-in-law of his benefactor. In another time and space, after the end of the Battle of Talas, as the first general under the command of Poselin, Ziyad, a close comrade-in-arms, also did not hesitate to plot to kill and replace Posirin for the sake of power and status.
And Posilin was a slave who had worked hard to get to where he is today, and he had just tasted the sweetness of power, but he hadn't had enough of it. He is the first hero of the black-clothed Great Food, the Governor of Great Food, the King of the East. How could he be willing to end the curtain like this, and die in a nest.
Xiao Qubing saw that he was shaken, and he didn't want to die at all, so he hurriedly said: "If Your Excellency the Governor does what I say, persuade the Khorasan people to convert to Zoroastrianism and submit to the rule of the Persian king." Not only do you not have to die, but tens of thousands of Persian prisoners of war and tens of millions of Persian civilians can also not die. ”
And Posilin said disdainfully: "That's all? "I actually want to say in my heart, what does it have to do with me whether they die or not, if they live so ordinarily from now on, it is better to die now.
Xiao Quzhi said with a smile: "After the matter is completed, you must go back to Chang'an with me, and give you freedom after five years, and then the Tang Dynasty will attack the black-clothed food, and you can be the governor of the land west of Khorasan." ”
And Posilin hesitated: "Why five years later?" ”
"This ......"
"What if you regret it then? What if His Majesty the Tang Emperor disagrees? ”
"I can swear to the Great God of Light that I will never go back. I discussed with Gao Gaocheng that this time I will go back to Chang'an to ask for credit to His Majesty the Emperor for you, and you will become an imperial official after you arrive in Chang'an. After that, we'll fight for you together when the time comes. ”
"Agreed!"
Xiao Qu breathed a sigh of relief and found that he still had some potential to be a hero. Someone like him who was naturally quick to kill according to his heart, was now able to make a deal with him without any psychological barriers. With the help of Hekhor Posirin, the situation in Khorasan should be able to stabilize quickly. In four or five years, both Hezhong and Khorasan should not have to worry too much.
Just when Xiao Qu was sick and felt refreshed, everything went well, and he was unhappy. Two of Gao Xianzhi's guards suddenly ran over: "That imperial brother caught ......"
Xiao Quzhi said strangely: "Isn't this a matter of course? What are you doing in such a hurry? ”
"However, Captain Gu Xiaojun, in order to capture him alive, was seriously injured and was stabbed seven times, and at this time he had already bled too much and fainted, and the military doctor was helpless."
"I'll go, Gu Xiaojun, what are you doing?"
