Chapter 697

The shelling lasted exactly two hours, and the Ali Bagh steel mill and the city of Ali Bagh were set on fire. The whole city was covered in billowing smoke, and countless citizens fled the streets.

Li Xiu knew that this was pure venting of anger. In such a city, destroying one or two actually Wu Sangui didn't care at all. Maybe the Alibagh steel mill can still make him feel distressed.

It's just distressing, as for the lives of Indians, Li Xiu doesn't care, and Wu Sangui doesn't care either. Anyway, the people of this country are always alive, and in their eyes, this rat-like nation has a strong ability to reproduce, and it won't take long for tens of thousands of people to recover.

Having stopped the shelling without any strategic significance, Li Xiu returned to Xinjiapo Harbor with his men.

Timid!

This is all Li Xiu's feelings!

was overturned by an unknown weapon, and three ironclad ships were overturned, and I still haven't figured out what they are. I only know that this thing may come from the bottom of the sea, and the Dragon King did it?

When Li Xiu was distressed, Li Xiao was advancing in the Western Regions.

He took Xingxing Gorge and Hami one after another, and the entire Western Regions opened its arms to him. In the face of Li Xiao's huge military power, Geerdan in the Western Regions is not worth mentioning. Now the only thing Li Xiao is afraid of is that Geldan will abandon the Ili River Valley and go directly to India.

Once such a thing happened, the Ming Dynasty had to maintain a large number of troops in the Western Regions.

The Central Asian region faced by the Western Regions was too vast, and spilling it into it by his three field divisions was no different from sprinkling a layer of pepper noodles. In later generations, the old man Taizu and his family still migrated millions of people to come here, so that he could be regarded as completely in his hands.

That's it, the people of the Western Regions still make some moths from time to time!

Of course, there are no borders now. The so-called Ili River valley can also not be the border line of the Ming Dynasty.

Sun Chengzong said a concept that Li Xiao felt very reasonable. That is, the country does not have any borders, and where a country's army can occupy and hold on, there is the border line of the country.

Li Xiao had to face such a problem, where his army would fight, and he would be able to occupy it effectively and practically. These lands occupied, Daming does not have enough population to fill.

If there is not enough population to occupy this land, then the consequences are no different from the Tang Dynasty's occupation of the Western Regions. When the Han Chinese power declined, the Western Regions would reoccupy the area. The Han people who emigrated over would be slaughtered by various groups of people in the Western Regions.

Back then, this was the fate of Datang's immigrants in the Western Regions. Li Xiao didn't want a tragedy to happen a hundred and ten years later.

If you want not to repeat the mistakes of the past, you must ensure the safety of the Hexi corridor. And this, you have to deal with Tibet.

The Tibetan man in front of him was wearing a leather robe. Unlike the Mongols, the Tibetans have only one sleeve in their leather robes, and I don't know why.

"The great and venerable Generalissimo, humble Gesar sends you the highest respect." Gesar, with curly hair and two lumps of plateau red on his face, held Hada in both hands and stood in front of Li Xiao with his body bowed.

The white Hada swayed in the wind, and Gesar hung his head and looked at the ground, not daring to move.

Li Xiao looked at the guy named Gesar in front of him for a while, he was the king of the Tibetan people. But he was a king who was ousted from power and wandered around.

The lamas in Tibet wanted him to die, but he couldn't die yet, because his name was of endless value to Li Xiao. This person can be a grasp of the Ming Dynasty's entry into Tibet, a high-sounding reason.

Now the only question is ......, what kind of person is this guy.

Li Xiao doesn't want to make the mistakes that her husband once made!

The scene was so quiet and terrible that for five minutes Gesar remained motionless, holding Hada in both hands and not even daring to lift his head.

"Oh! Get up! Li Xiao reached out and took Hada, and after the group, he threw it to the straight next to him like a rag.

"Lift your head up." After Li Xiao took Hada, Gesar still bowed and didn't move.

Gesar raised his head, and what Li Xiao saw was a pair of eyes that were wandering and uncertain. He didn't even dare to look at Li Xiao, his eyes were always wandering, and Li Xiao couldn't be sure where his eyes would fall.

"Come in and sit!" Li Xiao was the first to walk into his huge tent.

Gesar followed behind Li Xiao, like a timid child following his father, and he almost pulled the sleeve of Li Xiao's clothes.

"How do you want me to help you?" Li Xiao sat upright on the chair, and Gesar, who followed behind him, was still bowing.

"I want to ask the Generalissimo to send troops to help me reclaim the throne from the Living Buddha." When Gesar spoke of the Living Buddha, Li Xiao could see his fists clenched all at once. It can be seen that this guy and the living Buddha are also bitter and bitter.

"Oh!"

"Please, Generalissimo, please!" Gesar suddenly fell to his knees and began to cry "woo" and "woo".

"My family was burned alive by them, and the youngest daughter, who was fed alive to vultures. The Living Buddhas shamelessly took my throne, they were too cruel and excessive. I want to avenge my family, I want to avenge the tragic death of little Dolma. ”

Li Xiao nodded, this can be regarded as a bitter hatred.

The Tibetan people believe in Buddhism, and their Buddhism is very different from that of the Central Plains. This sect, known as Tantra, has many branches. The living Buddha in Gesar's mouth is one of the larger branches.

Almost everyone in Tibet believes in Tantra, and religion is even more powerful than royal power in Tibet. Poor Gesar is not surprised that he was squeezed into this way by the living Buddha.

"You have been taken to the throne by the Living Buddha, even if I want to help you, but I don't want my soldiers to go to Tibet to suffer. You know, we Han people will have qi diseases when they go to the plateau. The combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and it is still a good idea to stay in Qinghai, if you go to Tibet...... Hehe! Li Xiao smiled bitterly.

Not only did I think it was a matter of qi disease, but because the Tubo people were poor and scum, no one would be able to make any profit there. Since there is no benefit, then no one wants to fight in Tibet. forced people to fight in Tibet, without enthusiasm for fighting, it was easy for the soldiers to grind foreign workers. When the time came, the reason for the defeat was attributed to qi disease, and Shangguan had no way to do it.

"Generalissimo! Please, please! Hearing Li Xiao say that he did not support his return to the country, Gesar immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"That's it! We, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, have entered Qinghai. In the future, Qinghai will be incorporated into the Ming Dynasty! I can make you the king of the Tuvas, but you have to take your own army and take back the throne. But...... Many of you Tubo people are followers of the Living Buddha, and even if I give you a gun, you will have nowhere to recruit troops. "To fight on the plateau, you can only use highland people.

Li Xiao didn't want to spend his precious elite in Tubo for no reason, where birds don't. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, the soldiers must not want to go.

"If you go back to the Generalissimo, my teacher is a major Panchen Lama. He is also one of the largest sects in Tibet, second only to the Living Buddha in the number of people he teaches. If the generalissimo is willing to fly my weapons, money, and food, and give me a small place to train my troops, I will take my troops to Lazar and regain the throne with my own strength. ”

"Oh! I helped you take the throne, what good will it do me? Li Xiao rolled his eyes, there was no real money, and he actually wanted to negotiate conditions with Lao Tzu.

"If the Generalissimo helps us, I will recognize Qinghai as the land of the Ming Dynasty. I, Tibet, will also be the generalissimo's servant forever. In the future, we will pay tribute to the dynasty every year! Gesar was generous, and he gave the whole of Qinghai to Daming at once.

"Hahaha......!" Li Xiao suddenly burst out laughing, looking at Gesar as if he had seen the funniest thing in the world.

"Qinghai! Belong to me? Now Qinghai is in my hands, do you want to try it? Li Xiao leaned forward, looking like a tiger that had just come out of a hole.

"Nope! No! No! There is absolutely no such thought, if I seize the throne of Tibet, I will definitely become your most loyal servant. I will agree to everything you tell Tibet to do. Gesar hurriedly argued that Li Xiao was his only lifeline and his only hope for revenge.

"Then can I send troops to Lhasa?" Li Xiao said lightly.

"Okay!" Gesar did not hesitate in the slightest.

"Your military strength will be under the command of our Ming generals, no problem."

"No problem!" Gesar still didn't hesitate.

"I will emigrate to you Tibet!"

"I didn't ...... No problem. Gesar only hesitated for a moment, and immediately agreed. The other side is supported by the Mongols, if Da Ming Ken supports himself. The chances of winning the fight are much greater.

The agricultural harvest of the people on the plateau is very limited, and the population has not been able to grow due to the influence of agriculture. In addition, the living Buddha will need a pair of eyes for a while, a pair of hands for a while, or let people peel a few human skins back.

Population is a major problem for the plateau. Now the Han people are coming in, which is very difficult for the Tubo people of a single ethnic group to accept.

Even such things as emigrating and handing over the command of the army were agreed, which was already considered a loss of power and humiliation of the country. Gesar promised unequivocally, in his eyes, in addition to revenge, it was to return to the throne.

As for whether the army is in the hands of the Ming army, it doesn't matter to him! Lao Tzu will become the king!

"Good!" Li Xiao applauded, and agreed to these conditions without ambiguity, Li Xiao admired the fool in front of him.

"I still have to discuss this matter with the capital, you go back and wait for news." Li Xiao flicked his sleeves very casually, and Shunzi shouted with a very eye-catching look: "Send off."

"No! Thank you for your success, you have a long life, you ......! Gesar was excited, and the blessings rolled in, making everyone around him dizzy.

"King of Tibet, please put it!" Shunzi Hengdao immediately stood in front of Li Xiao, and his hand never left the trigger.

"Thank you Generalissimo, thank you Generalissimo." Far from the tent, Gesar was still thanking him. Although, Li Xiao didn't promise him anything.

"Bring him in!" Gesar was far away, and Li Xiao commanded softly.

"See the Generalissimo!" If King Sagar hadn't gone, he would have been so scared to see you here that he couldn't sleep.

"Even if he didn't leave, the result would be the same. Generalissimo, you are in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, and I believe you will have a judgment on who will call the shots in this place of Tibet. ”

"Sando! Don't be overconfident, if I hand you over to Gesar, who is already crazy, it will be even more miserable than you. Will they skin you? ”

"You are the Generalissimo here, and what you say is the Holy Decree. Since you have spoken, the villain will not have the possibility of mouthing. ”

It can be seen that this Tossan still has the demeanor of a diplomat. Compared to the Avatar just now, Li Xiao shook his head helplessly. Young people always like to cheat money in all kinds of ways!

"Gesar is not your opponent, because you are more daring to speak."

"Now that they're all open, then everyone is happy. Qinghai we want, I will send someone to take over your territory, I hope this matter ends here. ”

"No problem! We fully agree to that. Dossan hurriedly agreed, even more hardened than Gesar.

"You just heard that they can allow us to emigrate, and they are willing to put the command of the Tibetan army in the hands of my generals."

"No problem, Generalissimo, as long as you can make a request, and we Tubo people can do it, I will definitely do my best to do it. Because, we are your most loyal idols! Sando immediately put on a face of total loss of power and humiliation of the country.

"Well, don't forget what you said. Drop-off! Li Xiao commanded, and someone immediately sent Sando out.

"Huh! In this way, we can use the honest Gesar to involve the living Buddha, and also use Li Yongfang's power and involvement to disperse and disintegrate the Tubo people. ”

A person walked in outside, actually in a state of holding his hands behind his back, and saw that Li Xiao neither knelt down nor chattered seriously. It's none other than Zhang Huangyan. What Li Xiao did today must be his ghost idea.

In this way, without wasting a single shot or bullet, the supreme ruling power of the plateau was returned to the hands of the Han people, this guy is an out-and-out traitor!

"This ghost idea of yours will plunge the plateau into a long-term civil war."

"It's okay! I just dislike the qi disease on the plateau, and I don't dislike the desolate land on the plateau. ”

"The plateau is not very rich in minerals, and you have to garrison troops in Tibet, but this military expenditure is a big number? You have to think about how to deal with it! ”

"There is no choice but to throw them into the furnace and temper them slowly. Maybe one day, the whole world will be a favorite person, and the regrets of the rich businessmen will not be committed. ”

"They really fight, I don't know how many more people will die."

"This is also something that can't be helped, someone has to die, either their person is my Da Ming people."

PS: Because the word Tibet is too sensitive, Tibet will be changed to Tibet in the future. Tibetans, changed to Tibetans. We apologize for any inconvenience! It's not easy for Lao Long to write a book, and you don't want this book to be blocked......!
