461 The task of convincing people with virtue
Tang Ping happily entered the palace to ask for leave, but when it came out, he was depressed.
The leave was invited, but Li Shimin arranged another errand.
In this grand ceremony, the envoys of all the subject countries came, but only one was missing, and that was the Nanzhao Kingdom.
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, many tribes in the Erhai area merged with each other and gradually formed six relatively large tribal states, namely the Langqiong Edict, the Cheng Zhi Edict and the Shi Lang Edict of the River Barbarians, the Mengshe Edict of the Ailao People, the Mengsong Edict and the Yue Analysis Edict of the Mosome People, which were collectively referred to as the "Six Edicts".
Among them, Mengshe Zhao is called "Nanzhao".
At that time, these tribes were still harassing Datang.
But later, the Tang Dynasty became stronger and stronger, and these tribal states had no choice but to gradually move south.
Because the closer it is to the Tang Dynasty, that is, the several states in the north, the more its strength is consumed, and gradually it begins to lose its power.
In the end, it was annexed one by one by the Mengshezhao in the south and became a unified state, Nanzhao.
It's just that this Nanzhao State has been ambiguous between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, and after Tubo was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, they called the Tang Dynasty.
But it is still wild and untamable, and it is only superficial to Datang.
After the daughter country moved back from Tianzhu, the Tang Dynasty issued an order to let Nanzhao move south for hundreds of miles again, and their territory was handed over to the daughter country.
After all, the daughter country is less threatening than Nanzhao, and it is much more obedient.
This also caused Nanzhao's dissatisfaction, so even this time the 20th anniversary celebration of the Tang Dynasty did not send anyone to attend on the grounds that the king of Nanzhao was seriously ill.
Li Shimin just wanted Tang Ping to take someone to knock Nanzhao Guo by the way when he went over.
In Li Shimin's words, if the daughter country wants to plant tobacco in the future, it will be another money bag of Datang.
With such an unstable factor as Nanzhao on the side, it is better to settle down, otherwise don't blame him Li Shimin for being unsympathetic.
This errand seems easy to say, but for a guy like Shang Nanzhao, who eats hard and not soft, I'm afraid it's really a real "beating".
So even if Tang Ping asked for leave, his face was full of unhappiness when he went back.
How to describe it?
It's as if you have been given an eight-day holiday on National Day, and it looks like you can have a good time, but it tells you about the holiday right away
At the end of the day, it is the same as going to work for seven consecutive days.
It seems to have been released, but it seems that it has not been completely released.
Go back and tell Gou Shaoqun and Li Shanyi about the matter, these two people are very excited, just going to Yunnan for a trip, what's the point?
If they want to go, they will go back to Hyundai with a ticket to go.
"Did Your Majesty say how to deter them?" Gou Shaoqun asked excitedly: "Do you want to send a tank corps?" ”
Tang Ping glanced at him: "That's your hometown, don't you know?" Do you think Datang's tanks can be driven in now? ”
Gou Shaoqun thought about it, it was all mountains and hills, according to what Tang Ping said, several cities in Nanzhao were between the mountains, and the roads of the Tang Dynasty were not built there.
If you use a tank, it's really hard to get in.
"That's for your Xuanjia Army? Or a musketeer? "It's still Li Shan who is a little more reliable.
Tang Ping said: "There are 1,000 Xuanjia soldiers and 1,000 musketeers, but we can take the Chang'an." ”
The Chang'an in his mouth is the huge airship at the ceremony.
This type of airship can carry up to 9 passengers, has a maximum range of 1,700 kilometers and a maximum flight time of 20 hours.
In other words, if they take the Chang'an, they will walk in a straight line from the air, and they will almost be able to arrive in one day and one night.
"I have a Chang'an, what more bicycles do I need!" Gou Shaoqun said exaggeratedly: "When the time comes, let's directly drive the airship over Nanzhao, and directly scold the king of Nanzhao, can he still bite us?" ”
And if he's not convinced...... Xue Rengui, what about Agui? ”
Xue Rengui walked over and asked, "What's the matter, Young Master Gou?" ”
"Didn't Brother Ping just get you a new guy? I think your guy has a name, a single name and a German character! When the time comes, if King Nanzhao is not convinced, you can just convince people with virtue on the airship. ”
Tang Ping rubbed his forehead: "So you mean that as long as the king of Nanzhao is not convinced, we will give him a collapse and change to a king of Nanzhao, if he is not convinced, he will collapse again until they are convinced?" ”
"Isn't it simple and rude?" Gou Shaoqun asked proudly.
"Please, my dog is a young man, no matter what people say, it is also a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, the reason why I didn't come this time is that the king is seriously ill and dying, you go directly to the king of other countries to do it, what about other subordinate countries in the future."
Think? ”
Datang's policy towards subject countries is to slowly assimilate, so this kind of practice that directly provokes contradictions is not possible.
After all, even if a war can conquer that land, it is likely that the resolution of hatred will take decades, and war is only the next strategy among the next strategies.
"So what do we do?" Gou Shaoqun asked: "Tell San'er to go and show the king of Nanzhao Kingdom, is it a real illness or a fake disease?" ”
Tang Ping's eyes lit up: "That's okay." At that time, it was said that San'er was sent by His Majesty to see a doctor because he was worried about the health of the king of Nanzhaoguo. ”
"If you are really seriously ill, whether it is cured or not, it is the kindness of Datang."
"If you pretend to be sick, then you can also take the opportunity to knock it."
Li Shan doesn't care, it's just a physical examination, and he can take an airship to see different customs, what's wrong?
So after saying that, Tang Ping arranged for the Xuanjia cavalry and musketeers to follow the guards of the king of the daughter country and return to the daughter country first with the tobacco seeds obtained by Gou Shaoqun.
As for a few of them, they have renovated the cockpit of the Chang'an.
After all, this thing dismantled a lot of things for the performance a few days ago, and they planned to live in it for a few days this time.
Fortunately, when the design was started, Li Shimin was considered to be able to ride, so various facilities were quickly installed.
Gou Shaoqun was the first to run up with his luggage, nodded and said, "It's no worse than our family's private jet." ”
"Huh." Tang Ping smiled: "This interior is all high-grade Hainan Huanghuali, and the gold on the bread is pure gold, and which of these jades is not the best jade?" Not to mention the process, just these materials are sold in modern times, I am afraid that they are enough to buy a private jet. ”
This is not a lie, these things were all tributed to Li Shimin by various vassal states this time, and they are his private property.
After thinking about it, he simply used it on this airship, which can be regarded as Air Force One in the Tang Dynasty.
Yang Jin Ram was even more frightened by the decoration here.
"I ...... I'm not overstepping this ride, is it? ”
"Hey, Your Majesty asked you to do it, what are you afraid of!" Gou Shaoqun shouted: "It's too late, get in the car quickly, no, it's on the airship, let's go!" ”
