Chapter 417: Hexi, Hexi

The thin man smiled and said, "Pony, don't jump to conclusions, think about the stakes carefully." The first emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, it is bound to purge the old ministers, you are too powerful, you are bound to be jealous of the new emperor, if you want to maintain your position of power, it is best to agree to the conditions of my emperor, in the future my emperor will be the lord of the Tang Dynasty, and the general can also seal the territory in the western region, hereditary replacement. If you don't agree, the new emperor will calculate it in the future, and it will be too late to regret it. ā€

Ma Ling looked at the thin man condescendingly, and sneered: "You are just a messenger, and it is far from being a lobbyist for a scholar." Now that you're here, don't think about leaving. ā€

The thin man smiled and said: "Xiaoma, I am just a messenger, if you don't agree, I will go back to restore my life, you have to leave me, but I don't pay attention to morality." ā€

"Which one wants to follow you to the rivers and lakes!" Ma Lan said, reaching out and pulling out the Desert Eagle.

The thin man's face changed, and he suddenly jumped out, but his body was still in the air, and with a muffled sound, the thin man's head bloomed and fell heavily.

Seeing that the thin man's blood and brains were flowing out, Ma Lan blew on the muzzle of the gun: "It's too violent......" said and put the flintlock pistol back again.

The soldiers carried the thin man's body out, and Ma Lu looked at the letter on the table and sneered.

This Li Jing simply doesn't know what to say!

Dare to write a letter to recruit himself, a hairy boy, where did he get such confidence!

It's no wonder that Ma Lan was annoyed, in the letter, Li Jing actually asked Ma Lan to take the Anxi Army to sweep the world for him. Then he came to be emperor. Joke. Isn't this a horse beating a country and a donkey sitting in the temple? I really want to be ruthless and sweep the world. Lao Tzu himself will not be the emperor, and he will give the emperor to you for nothing?

At this time, Ma Lan also understood why Li Jing would take risks, it turned out that he had such thoughts.

But what kind of thing are you to let someone do things for you! If you win two battles, you don't know how thick the sky is.

On the shore of the North Sea, Ma Lule is "those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die". Li Jingle's is "Wencheng Wude, eternal generations", engraved on the side of Ma Lingle's stone, the handwriting is bigger than Ma Ling's main general, these Ma Lan naturally already knew, it was a little annoying to him, and he didn't let people smooth out Li Jing's words It was already to give him face, now that I think about it, Li Jing at that time already had a heart of disobedience.

Li Jing dares to be self-reliant, and his mind is to rely on his own strength. However, he took his identity as a descendant of Prince Zhang Huai too seriously, and thought that he would definitely support him if he had no choice. It can only be said that it is a little too tender. Now he doesn't rebel, not to respect the royal family, but to prosper for the sake of the continuation of the prosperous era, since even the royal family is not respected, the identity of a descendant of Prince Zhang Huai is naturally not a fart in his eyes.

Of course, if you really have a heart of disobedience, the identity of Prince Zhang Huai's descendants can barely be used, and after taking Chang'an in the future, it will probably be easier to clean up the mess with the call of Prince Zhang Huai's descendants, and there may not be so many people killed. However, if he really did that, Li Jing would just be a banner, he could only become a puppet, and he would not live long at all, and the end would only be like Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.

At that time, it was himself who contributed, why did he give the emperor to Li Jing? The puppet emperor still has to give in in the end, and then ...... There is no then.

"With Li Jing's chapter and Prince Huai's descendants as an artificial call to calm the world, the time to sweep the world can probably be reduced by ......more than half," Ma Ling thought in his heart, and shook his head suddenly.

Such a thing should not be thought of in the first place. Without Dr. Feng and Junzi Duan, you have to keep your mind clear and don't act rashly. Datang must not fall into infighting, and cannot give the Great Food Civilization a chance to make a comeback. If you are cleaning up the mess on your side, and there is a Mansur-like hero on the side of the Great Food, it will be even more troublesome at that time.

If you kill someone, the anger in your heart will be much smoother. The fact that Li Jing dared to write a letter to his submission is irritating. But now that I understand Li Jing's thoughts, things have become easier to handle.

Killing the messenger wasn't just for a breath. This guy is known for his light body kung fu in Chang'an, and he probably didn't expect that he could keep him. If the envoy did not return to Liaodong to report the news, Li Jing did not know his thoughts, and he would definitely not dare to move south rashly, and he would definitely attack Silla, and strive to wipe Silla in one fell swoop, leaving a way back for himself. Since this is the case, let him exert his residual heat, it is not a pity that the blood of the Han family is shed on the battlefield of expanding the territory.

This is not a big deal, there are no strong enemies around Datang, so places like Silla and Nanzhao will naturally be flattened, and then there will be the Wa Kingdom. Since it is expansion, it must be expanded in all directions, not just to the west. What Li Jing is doing now is just to advance what the Tang Empire should do, and then the Tang Dynasty will only be left to pick peaches.

This was just a small episode in the itinerary, and from the second day, the army increased slightly faster, and three days later left Moheyan and officially stepped into the Hexi Corridor. In fact, this place no longer belongs to the west of the city, and the scholars and officials here are no longer under the jurisdiction of Ma Lu.

The quicksand is dominated by the west of the horse, and it is naturally nothing to see the Anxi army, but now that the quicksand has passed, seeing such a large army, the magistrate is naturally frightened. However, knowing that it was the coffin of the former emperor that was sent, no one dared to say anything after the gentry bowed and wept bitterly. And at this time, Ma Lan finally saw the messenger who ordered him to escort the coffin to Chang'an. As for the envoy who decreed that the new emperor would ascend the throne and let all the main generals enter Beijing to discuss merits, he had seen it as early as when he was in Rouyuan County.

The envoy was extremely surprised to see Ma Lan's army here, but for Ma Lu, it was now justified. Like the previous group of envoys, these envoys were also left in the army by Ma Lan and went with the brigade.

There are Anxi secret agents following Zhang Xun's brigade, and news comes every day, and the news of Li Jing's rebellion has already reached there, which is naturally extremely shocking, but Li Heng, the son of Zhide, gave an order, saying that Li Jing is just a disease of scabies, so Guo Ziyi and Li Siye can deal with it. I still have to do the way of the Son of Man. Continue to stay with a large group of people to meet the coffin of the emperor. The news was transmitted back to Chang'an City. The hearts of the people of Chang'an, who were originally floating, have also become calmer, and the name of Li Hengren's filial piety is naturally praised by all the people.

Since the Son of Heaven is not panicking, there is nothing to be afraid of. Li Jing only had the military horses of Pinglu Town in his hands, and he did not lead the troops south, which was really not a big deal.

Of course, Ma Lan knew very well that this was naturally the result of Zhang Xun's edict, or Zhang Xun and Chen Xuanli conspired to edict. After all, the revival of vegetative people is such a bloody matter. It is basically impossible to happen in reality.

Since Zhang Xun didn't mess up, it was the best, the object of Ma Lan's negotiation this time was Zhang Xun, and what he wanted to face was a calm Zhang Xun, not a messy Zhang Xun. Only Zhang Xun, who is calm enough, can agree to his conditions.

The Hexi Corridor has always been the throat of the Central Plains to the Western Regions, and the Hexi Corridor is in the hands of the Han people, so they can command the Western Regions. After hundreds of years of development since the Han Dynasty, it has become a densely populated place, much more prosperous than the three states in the western part of the country. However, now the Tang Dynasty has destroyed the Hui and Tubo. The north and south sides of the Hexi Corridor are also the land of the Tang Dynasty, and this passage is naturally not as important as before. However, from the Central Plains to the Western Regions, this road is still the shortest, and the detour back to the road and Qinghai are much farther up.

Since entering the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty and Tubo have repeatedly fought over the Western Regions, but the Hexi Corridor has always been in the hands of the Tang Dynasty, because of this, even in the most unfavorable situation, there are three states west of the quicksand as the bridgehead for the Tang Dynasty's westward expansion. Of course, the times are easier, and now that Tibet has been destroyed, the Tang Empire is still in full swing.

Ma Ling sat on the horse's back, his expression solemn but his heart was relaxed, looking at the villages that appeared in his field of vision from time to time. The Hexi Corridor in autumn is not wider than the Moraine West Heaven and Earth, but the scenery is also magnificent.

Datang is prosperous on the surface, but in fact, it also hides a crisis, prosperity and decline, this is the time when Datang's national strength is at its peak, and it is also the time when the crisis is the greatest. The original history was because of the Anshi Rebellion, and now the Anshi Rebellion has been eliminated, but there are still deep contradictions.

The Hui have been wiped out, and there are still many Tubo people on the Qiang pond, and these Qiang people, who are fighting separately, are powerless to confront the powerful Tang Dynasty, and now they can only fight each other under the drive of the Tang Dynasty. On Gongren led the Tang army to occupy Luo, and the foundation of the Tubo Empire was gone, but after all, on Gongren was a descendant of Lu Dongzan, and he would never drive out the Qiang people.

Bailan, Subi, Dangxiang, once the Central Plains happens, these already broken Qiang people will immediately have the possibility of revival. Once the Central Plains happens, it's hard to say how much Gongren's loyalty will be, after all, he is a descendant of Lu Dongzan. The population of the Tubo Empire is two or three million, and now less than half of them are dead, once something happens in the Central Plains, the Xishan bandits will have another chance.

So in any case, the Central Plains can't be chaotic, and Datang can't be chaotic. It's hard to clean up if it's messy, and the price to pay if you want to clean it up is too big for him to accept.

In more than ten days, we will arrive at Wusheling Ridge. After crossing the Hexi, they will meet Zhang Xun and them in a few days. At that time, the fate of the Tang Empire will be truly decided, the fate of thousands of Han people will be truly decided, and where the Tang Empire will go will also be truly decided.

Whether it is a poor dagger to see, or a smile and a grudge, in fact, it all depends on Zhang Xun. The matter had already begun, and there was no room for him to back down, after all, he had come with 10,000 men. These 10,000 people are the closest to him among the billions of Han people, and no matter what, he has to take care of their interests, so his line has been drawn there, and he can't retreat or give in.

At that time, it will depend on whether Zhang Xun has enough wisdom to make the right choice.
