Chapter 252: The True Weakness of the Tubo People

"I, Avarid, love making friends!"

Turning the three small bags that were a little too heavy again, just this weight, at least twenty catties of golden sand, at this moment, many thoughts flashed in the heart of this Tubo Ma who changed cities.

It's twenty catties of golden sand, which is not something ordinary businessmen can afford!

The guy in front of him called Anda Xian, the scale of the caravan is so large, and the shot is so generous, it seems that he should have returned from the east with a full load, anyway, he has already entered the exchange city, if he ...... directly.

However, this thought was only fleeting, although he had been anxious and impetuous recently because of the counterinsurgency, but he still had to distinguish between a satiety and a full meal.

Of course, if you can become a fat man in one meal, in fact, it is not impossible, the problem is that now the other party is in the city, and here is a market, tens of thousands of people are exaggerated, and there are thousands of people.

Moreover, the scale of this caravan was too large, and it attracted everyone's attention from the moment it entered the market, and most of the merchants present had seen similar scenes, which were nothing more than extortion.

Although a businessman is rich, although a businessman can employ many people, it is normal to be blackmailed on someone else's territory, and since he is a businessman, he naturally knows how to save his life.

Therefore, at this moment, many people are waiting for the scene of spending money to eliminate disasters as a topic of conversation in the future.

Extortion is okay, but in broad daylight, the garrison of the exchange city saw the intention of making money, and directly slaughtered such a caravan, if it spreads, in the future, who would dare to pass by the change city!

If you want to *** and be airtight, you can only slaughter all the people here.

The problem is that most of the people gathered here are merchants from all over the Western Regions, and the income of the exchange city mainly depends on these people, and these people are all *** gone, and the exchange city will become a dead city.

As long as this guy is willing to stay, then this is a chicken that will have golden eggs, with such a chicken, why worry about not receiving more sincerity in the future?

And looking back, such a large caravan, such a sturdy fellow and guard, and such a generous shot, it is clear that it is definitely a top merchant on the side of the big cannibals......

It's not cost-effective to provoke such a person, no matter how you think about it, forget it!

Unbeknownst to Alvaried, his choice inadvertently saved himself and the lives of the city's only over a thousand defenders.

On the bright side, the number of Andaxian's caravan is 600 people, and the merchant's caravan, no matter how many people there are, may not be able to fight, all that is needed is to rely on the hired escort team, this is the consensus of everyone!

These guys in the escort team are quite brave in the face of small bands of horse thieves and robbers, but they are very Schrödinger in the face of large bandits and horse thieves.

As for the present, in the face of the Tubo army in the city with sharp blades, these guys can be completely ignored, of course, even if they do it, they will inevitably have a dead word.

However, there seemed to be six hundred men in this caravan, but there were not even three hundred serious merchants, men, packmen, and grooms.

Among the remaining people, there are 200 assassins and killers trained by He Shuang, nearly 100 are cavalrymen trained by Gu Lina, forty or fifty are the elite of the Genshin Impact Army, and there are more than 20 veterans of the Anxi Army who are easier to kill than chickens. ….

And the second-rate Tibetan miscellaneous soldiers who were only in their early 1,000s in the city were replaced.

With a second-rate Tubo miscellaneous army in the early 1,000s, against more than 300 elite Tang people who can no longer be elite, if the other party defends the city, it will be fine, but everyone has entered the city, if the other party dares to make a move, this team will do it directly, and the entire exchange city will definitely not be seen by a living Tubo person.

At this moment, Avarid in front of Adasi only hesitated slightly, and Avarid patted Andashi on the shoulder heavily.

"I'm Avaried's favorite friend! Especially a sincere friend like you, you can rest assured that your business will be my business in the future, as long as I am still ...... Avaried."

In the middle of his words, Avarid suddenly felt someone touch his back, and instantly changed color, turned his head to look behind him, and saw the city gate officers who had brought this caravan directly into the city to extort according to the old rules.

He glared at the other party viciously and spat out a word lightly.

"Get out!"

Immediately, Avarid turned his head back to Andaxian, the anger of a moment ago had disappeared without a trace, and his face was full of infinite smiles.

"Brother Andaxian, don't worry, as long as I, Avarid, am still in the Swap City, the Swap City will be your home, your problem will be my problem, your woman......

"Of course, it's still your woman! Now someone dares to threaten and blackmail you!"

As the words fell, Avarid patted Anda Xian's shoulder again, took the three heavy sincerity into his arms, and then walked out of the place where the two were talking, and strode towards the Tubo officer who detained Anda Xian and the others.

raised his right hand in front of everyone, and in the other party's stunned, he rounded up, and faced the other party is a strong number of *** fights, while fighting, his mouth did not stop.

Under the super strength, the guy who was beaten directly turned into a large humanoid spinning top, and after four or five consecutive turns in place, he fell to the ground at once.

When the hapless man recovered from his vertigo, he heard Avarid's angry scolding.

"This bastard! Who gave you the audacity to slander and hinder this distinguished guest from the west, my friend!"

"Bastard, don't you know the difference between the Tang and the Sogdians?"

Struggling to his feet, the hapless guy pointed in Shang's direction......

"Maben...... But ......."

This action made Avarid frown again, this guy is usually quite clever, why is he so axial today, could it be that he was stunned by his own slap?

Following the gaze of a subordinate who was put to the ground by a *** bucket, Avarid glanced over with the corner of his eye, and was stunned for a moment, his subordinate was indeed not blind, but ......

"Open your dog's eyes, open your ears, and listen to me, my honored guests, my beloved friends, say they are the elders of the Sogdians, and they are the elders of the Sogdians!"

"Next time you dare to make such a mistake, be careful of your dog's life."

While scolding, another *** fight, and pumped it hard, this time Avaried used the strength of milking, and a large humanoid spinning top with a nosebleed appeared in front of everyone again..........

This time, the Tubo officer, who was so struck that he was blinded, struggled to get up after dozens of breaths.

Obviously, he was embarrassed to the extreme, and half of his face was swollen, but after standing up, when he looked at Anda Xian, not only did he not have the slightest resentment on his face, but he was full of smiles.

Obviously, this time, this unlucky guy was woken up by the tiled house, but seeing this guy's reaction, Anda Xian also understood what to do now.

The fourth bag of golden sand was silently handed to Avarid's hands.

"Maben, I want to buy some properties, open a few shops, and set up a warehouse in this city, I don't know ......."

Hearing Anda's words that he wanted to set up an industry in Bachang City, and feeling the bag full of sincerity in his hand, Adriva's face was as bright as a blooming chrysanthemum.

"Brother, it's good to stay, this Bachang City is the largest city in the basin of the Bachang River, Hulu River, and Sihun River, and the merchants come and go here...... Brother, you stay in this pair, come on, come, I'll take you to pick a location personally, as long as you like it, just tell me directly, hahaha!"

The whole four bags of golden sand, the price is huge, but the effect is also amazing, the Tubo people are located on the Silk Road, the largest commercial town on the South Tianshan Road, almost without any reservations exposed to Andaxian, exposed to the Anxi army.

In order to satisfy Andahian as much as possible, Avarid gave a large piece of land in the city, along with the houses on it, directly to Andahian.

After inquiring about his "yellow-skinned Sogdian elders," Andah was pleased to accept the gift from Avaried.

According to these white-bearded elders, with a little transformation, the commercial function can be preserved

At the same time, it was transformed into a sturdy but unobtrusive dock fort.

Prepare enough supplies, there are three hundred people, enough to withstand the attack of thousands of enemy troops, and it is not a problem to hold on for three months.

With such a dock fort hidden in the trading station, even if Alvarid turned his face one day, they could hold out until reinforcements from Qiuzi City arrived.

If Avarid doesn't take action, when the Dadu Protector decides that the Anxi army will go out of Qiuzi, he can also cooperate with the outside and take this important commercial town on the Silk Road.

Three days later, having built the basic prototype of the caravan, leaving enough follow-up men, and bidding farewell to Alvarid to command, Andaxian led the caravan out of the city.

The number of caravans at this time was reduced from six hundred to about five hundred.

More than 100 people, including an old man who was nominally known as the elder of the Zhaowu Nine Clan, and dozens of young and middle-aged people who were young and strong, straight, and burly and strong, were left behind in Bachang City.

Of course, for all the arrangements for the left-behind personnel, Anda Xian neither participated nor spoke.

From the departure of Chang'an to the present, almost all cities and towns on the entire Silk Road will make similar arrangements, but the scale of the merchant inns is different, and everything has already been familiarized.

Originally, Anda Xian thought that he had done a good job, but after seeing the arrangement under the command of the veteran of the Anxi Army, Anda Xian knew that he was still too young. ….

Because of the participation of these old Anxi clans, this merchant inn has incomparable significance for the entire Anxi Army and for Guo Rong.

After leaving the city of Bagai, their nominal destination was West Sogdia, the former homeland of Anguo, which is now part of the Great Cannibal Land.

However, instead of following the route closest to West Sogdia, they chose to turn southwest, passing through Shule, which once belonged to the four towns of Anxi.

After setting up another large-scale merchant inn in Shule, it continued to move southwest, passing through the Kashgar Kul Pass, which was later known as the Khunjerab Port, and officially entered the area west of the Green Ridge.

After crossing the Green Ridge, they arrived at Xiao Bolu, which had been conquered by the Anxi army, and set up a large-scale merchant house again in the city of Xiao Bolu, the most important defensive fortress in the westernmost part of the territory of the Tibetans.

Inadvertently, the caravan after leaving Qiuzi had already inserted one dagger after another in the core hinterland of the Western Realm Road of the Tubo people.

Leaving the city of Sindo, the caravan continued its journey southwest, and then arrived at the true destination that Guo Xin had hoped for, the most famous Buddha kingdom between Tianzhu and the Western Regions, Wudana.

The diplomatic exchanges between Huaxia and Wudana began in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the Wuchang State paid tribute to the Northern Wei Dynasty in the third and fourth years of Yongping, the first year of the Divine Turtle, and the second year of Zhengguang.

The subsequent exchanges between them have never been severed.

In the fourth year of Tianbao, Tang Xuanzong canonized the king of the country of Udana as the king, and at this time, the country became a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty along with the state of Zongbin.

Chinese monks of all dynasties must pass through here when they go to Tianzhu to study Buddhism, and the most famous of them is Master Xuanzang.

Master Xuanzang carried the scriptures from Tianzhu on the way back to China, when he passed through the upper reaches of the Indus River, some of the scriptures were washed away by the river, and when he was very annoyed, he was fortunate to get the help of the Buddhist temple of Wushana country.

He stayed here for more than 50 days before he was able to replenish the complete scriptures, and finally brought the relatively complete scriptures back to the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, these are all told by Guo Xin to Andaxian, and the purpose is to let Andaxian better understand Udana and thus complete the real task of this trip:

Relying on the former origin as much as possible, the Wudana who was struggling between the big food and the Tibetan side was redrawn into the camp of the Tang Dynasty.

The reason why Guo Xin values Udana is because in the south of Udana, there is a very famous city in Peshawar.

Thirty miles west from Peshawar is the largest and most important pass in the Hindu Kush and known as the Khyber Pass, the lifeblood of the Indian subcontinent.

Compared to the stay time of three days in other cities and regions, and at most five days, the entire caravan stayed in the capital of Udana for a whole month

Space.

After carefully investigating the situation and predicament of the country of Wudana, and determining that Wudana still yearns and longs for the Tang Dynasty, An Daxian and Guo Xin of the Anxi Army visited the king of Wudana and sent Guo Xin's handwritten letter.

Guo Xin's reputation in the Tang Dynasty and the Central Plains is not prominent, but as the last commander of the Anxi Army, his influence in the Western Regions and in Hexi, which was once within the influence of the Anxi and Beiting armies, is still unmatched. ….

Although Anda Xian did not show too many changes in Datang, and Guo Xin's handwritten letter did not give any promises or requirements, the team called the caravan, and even the information presented by the caravan itself, had given the Wuzhan who was on the verge of annihilation a shot in the arm.

In a silent moment, the caravan led by Anda Xian was reduced by half, and all the way here, the remaining ninety percent of the Anxi Army, the Yuan Shen Ce Army, and the swordsmen of the Dunhuang Eldest Princess's Mansion were left in Wudana.

So much so that the remaining manpower in the caravan was no longer enough to escort and cover them all the way, and the silk, tea, Shu brocade and other products belonging to the Tang Dynasty as props were used.

Faced with Andahian's somewhat embarrassing situation, the king of Udana waved his hand gently, and hundreds of Udana soldiers temporarily became Andahian's guards.

Escorted by this team, Anda Xian crossed the Khyber Pass westward, passing through the Xiliuzhou Huwen City under the former Tang Anxi Protectorate, which had another name in later generations - Kabul.

In a flash, in June of the third year of the Tang Dynasty, after a long journey of one and a half years, the caravan led by Anda Xian arrived at the final destination of his trip, which was once under the rule of the Anxi Protectorate, and the former capital of Anguo, Amu Micheng (now Bukhara, Uzbekistan, the upper reaches of the Amu Darya River).

After the Anshi Rebellion, although the Tang Dynasty declined, the Tubo people, who were more arrogant than the Tang Dynasty, attacked again.

In the face of the Tubo army, which also had heavy infantry as the core, and learned the success of the Six Greats of the Tang Dynasty, the Great Cannibals had to change their initial brutal rule and instead rely on the Sogdians led by Zhaowu Jiu to fight against the brutal and powerful Tubos.

As a result, although Anguo has long since fallen, the Sogdians, with the surname Zhaowu Jiu as the core, still hold the real economic lifeblood of the entire region.

Moreover, the continental blockade and strangulation strategy of Tubo formulated by Li Mi is still there, and between the black-clothed Dashi and the Tang Dynasty at this time, the enemy of the enemy is the ally of a friend still exists.

According to Guo Xin's suggestion when he left Qiuzi, after arriving at Anguo's hometown, Anda Xian directly revealed his identity as a descendant of Anguo and the envoy of the Anxi Army, and presented Guo Xin's handwritten letter.

After Anda Xian made it clear that he had no idea about recovering the country, and that he was just doing business while replacing the Tang Dynasty to convey the message of jointly fighting against Tibet, he was welcomed by the governor of Khalosan.

And following Anda Xian's way, silk, tea and other Tang Dynasty products as props were frantically snapped up by local merchants, and the profits were thirty times greater, igniting the enthusiasm of Dashi and Sogdian merchants.

The overland Silk Road, which had gradually declined under the plundering and brutal management of the Tibetans, once again entered everyone's attention.

From this moment on, a land trade route of more than 20,000 miles was connected again, starting from Chang'an, crossing the Hexi Corridor, crossing the Tianshan Corridor, crossing the Green Mountains, passing through the Khyber Pass, crossing countless mountains, grasslands, deserts, and the Gobi, connecting the two empires of the Tang Dynasty and the Great Eclipse.

At the same time, the rudiments of an intelligence network that spanned the entire Eurasian continent and were even larger than Guo Rong imagined began to take shape. ….

Just when Anda Xian set foot on the hometown of Anguo in a dignified manner, Guo Xin, the protector of Anxi, began to quietly lay out the Western Regions with the help of Guo Rong and Anda Xian's caravans, and was ready to stab the chrysanthemums of the Tibetan people in the back, the Northern Expeditionary Army, which had stayed on the Mobei grassland for nearly a year, completed all the mission commands, and was ready to embark on the journey back to the Central Plains.

According to the original plan, in the first month of the third year of Yuanhe, Yao Geluo was destroyed and Aidenli Dalu was killed, marking the end of the two royal bloodlines of the Uighurs, and nominally, the location of the only Uighur Khotun Li Xuan would become the only power core of the Uighur Khanate.

According to the original plan, the north

The expeditionary army will use two months to form two servant armies of the steppe and rebuild the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate.

The rebuilt Anbei Protectorate will retain only one Tang army of about 6,000 men, plus two servant armies of about 3,000 men.

After the two servant armies were formed, led by the two servant armies, the packhorse heavy infantry and cavalry of the Northern Expeditionary Army would complete the sweep of the large Uighur tribes within a month.

After completing the sweep and reappearing in the Uighur tent of the former Khan, Guo Rong was able to withdraw his troops south and return to the Central Plains.

It's just that some things always change inadvertently.

A one-sided massacre in the first month of the year deeply shocked the surviving males of the Yaoge tribe, and the nomads forged by the steppe were the natural followers of the strong.

In the face of more than 10,000 captives who were enthusiastic to the limit, two servant armies of 3,000 people could not satisfy their determination to follow Datang.

As a result, the original plan of two servant armies was changed to four, and after only a month of training, these servant armies began to encourage their Tang Military Academy to propose to go to actual combat.

Guo Rong, who didn't think too much, agreed to their request, and then ......

Half a month later, the four servant armies, with a total of only 12,000 horsemen, brought back a total of more than 20,000 young and young steppe people, and at the same time brought back more than 50,000 horses, cattle, sheep and other livestock......

Such an effect shocked everyone, including Guo Rong, Zheyun Valley, and Li Yu!

As a result, a military meeting that should not be held was held additionally, and the topic was the establishment and establishment of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, and whether to change the future Mobei strategy.

Just as the military conference was about to start, Guo Rong smelled a special fragrance, and the fragrance came from a porcelain bowl in Zhang Jiaxuan's hand.

Out of curiosity, Guo Rong asked more.

And the aroma of Guo Rong asked was emanating from this bowl.

"Zhang Daochang, what is this, so fragrant?"

"A few days ago, Liu Runlong from Huai'an Fort made a special trip to send two Changbai Mountain ginseng that are more than 1,000 years old!"

"This thing, I have seen it in the classics of Master Sun, Mobei is cold, and His Majesty is weak, so I added some other medicines, boiled it, and prepared it for His Majesty, which is considered to be nourishing."

Zhang Jiaxuan didn't expect that he felt that Guo Rong's eyes were full of gold stars when he heard that he was an ordinary sentence.

Two thousand years of Changbai Mountain ginseng, this TM can be sold at a sky-high price in future generations!
