At the end of the eleventh year of Zhenguan.

For the Ming Dynasty, this year is definitely a year of great significance.

is not only Li Chengqian's wedding, but more importantly, this year's Ming Dynasty has continuously attacked Tubo and the Western Regions, which means that the strength of the Ming Dynasty will develop by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.

This is of great significance to every Ming citizen.

The confidence of the common people comes from the strength of the country.

And the confidence of a country comes from the people.

This is mutually reinforcing.

And today, the kings of the Western Regions have gathered in Shazhou Mansion.

It's just that this time they came over, for them, there was indeed a little grievance.

"The kings have come to me this time, I don't know what the matter is?" In the Shazhou County Guard's Mansion, Gao Chunxing asked with a smile on his face.

When King Gaochang heard this, he also smiled and said: "This is not the Ming Dynasty that has blocked the border now, of course, this king also knows that this is affected by the war in Tibet, but he doesn't know when bilateral trade cooperation will be carried out normally?"

After all, this has greatly affected my Western Regions and the Ming Dynasty. ”

They had discussed it before they came, and Daming would definitely find a reasonable excuse here, so he didn't give Gao Chunxing this opportunity, negotiating, naturally he had to take the initiative.

Gao Chunxing said with a smile: "Indeed, because of the impact of the war, my Ming had to seal the border, and I hope that the kings will not mind."

As for when the border will be opened, it is estimated that it will take more than half a year, after all, the war in Tubo is tight, and the remnants of Tuyuhun have been making trouble recently, so it is really impossible.

In the final analysis, it is still that the time for the founding of the Ming Dynasty is too short and the foundation is insufficient. ”

As soon as they heard that it would take more than half a year, the kings of the Western Regions all sneered.

Of course, they know the reason why Da Ming did this, and the excuse can only be an excuse.

At that moment, King Qiuzi said: "Half a year is too long, this has too much impact on the economic development of the Ming Dynasty, and besides, the countries in the Western Regions and the Ming Dynasty are all friendly countries, how can we watch the Ming Dynasty sink?"

It's better to be like this, your country opens the border, if there are remnants of Tuyuhun sneaking into the countries of our Western Regions, the countries of our Western Regions will definitely cooperate to send these people back to Daming? ”

This is just a temptation.

I mainly want to see Daming's attitude.

Murong Chengzhong shook his head and said, "King Qiuzi looks down on my Ming Dynasty and calms down the turmoil in the country, but I still need to rely on others?"

Besides, Murong Fuyun relied on the Western Regions to restore the country for the second time, so I really don't know if I can't wait. ”

"Yes." Gao Chunxing also spoke, "It's not that I can't trust the countries of the Western Regions, but that my Ming has the ability to calm down my own civil strife."

As for the economic losses, they are not comparable to the stability of the country, and I hope you can understand this. ”

"But in this way, I can't stand it in the Western Regions!" King Gaochang immediately said angrily, "You Daming have been operating in my Western Regions for many years, and you have pulled the prices of cattle, sheep, and grain to an extremely cheap price, and raised wages and other prices, and now the common people of all countries in our Western Regions are unwilling to graze and grow grain."

Originally, this was nothing, after all, the income of the workshop was indeed much greater than the cattle, sheep and grain, but the problem was that as soon as the Ming border was blocked, the sales channels of the workshops in my Western Regions were almost cut off.

Could it be that this is your Ming purpose? ”

"Can't you say that?" Gao Chunxing immediately retorted, "When my merchants in the Ming Dynasty were doing business in the Western Regions, they strictly followed the laws of various countries and did legal business.

Moreover, over the years, my merchants have also contributed to the commercial development of the Western Regions, right? When King Gaochang said this, isn't he questioning my Daming? ”

After speaking, Gao Chunxing waved his sleeves, obviously very angry.

King Gaochang was silent when he heard this, but King Qiuzi on the side was angry, and immediately said: "Okay, okay, who is the fool here?"

It's like what Da Ming wants to do, everyone doesn't know!

Let's be honest, what do you want?

Don't tell this king that you don't know my current situation in the Western Regions, don't open this mouth, this king doesn't believe it!

Let's get straight to the point. ”

They didn't discuss it like this at first, but when King Gaochang said that, there was really no need to hide it.

If you continue to play dumb riddles like this, when will you be able to solve the problem?

Hearing him say this, Gao Chunxing smiled, and glanced at King Gaochang, and the two looked at each other, both smiling and silent.

"Since King Qiuzi has said this, the general might as well make it clear." Murong Chengzhong immediately said.

"If the general has anything to say, just say it." King Qiuzi said.

Murong Chengzhong didn't think too much about it, and said directly: "It doesn't matter if you open the border, but this time, I want to garrison troops in the Western Regions, and all countries must garrison troops."

The reason is also simple, firstly, what the countries of the Western Regions have done in recent times, everyone knows it, so I need to garrison the countries of the Western Regions to protect the rights and interests of my Ming merchants.

Second, you have to prevent the remnants of Tuyuhun from using the power of your Western Regions to make wind and rain, at this point, I don't think General Ben needs to say more, right? ”

"Why don't you let the countries of the Western Regions directly submit to the Ming Dynasty?" King Qiuzi also snorted coldly when he heard this.

Not only him, but the kings of the Western Regions were all resentful.

Although they all guessed this result, they really heard it at this time, and they still hated it in their hearts.

If the Ming army's army is stationed in the countries of the Western Regions, what is the difference between it and taking them the countries of the Western Regions?

"If the countries of the Western Regions are willing to submit to my Daming, of course my Daming is willing!" Murong Chengzhong also sneered, "What, am I not worthy of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Phew!

The kings were called disdainful.

You're a big Ming!

"It's impossible to garrison!" King Gaochang immediately refused, "If you let the Ming Dynasty enter the countries of my Western Regions to garrison troops, then where will the face of the countries of my Western Regions go?"

You don't have to think about it, change the conditions. ”

"Is that something to talk about?" Murong Chengzhong's eyes widened and he snorted coldly.

"No need to talk!" Without waiting for anyone else to think, King Gaochang immediately said.

"Someone, send off!" Murong Chengzhong was not used to them at all, and immediately called the attendants to prepare to send off the guests.

Gao Chunxing looked at this scene but did not squeak.

Well, the negotiation was successful one time.

The reason why Murong Chengzhong led the way at this time was for the later negotiations.

Seeing this, King Gaochang and the others immediately left in a huff.

And after they left, Murong Chengzhong asked, "County Shou, are you sure this time?" ”

"Why not?" Gao Chunxing smiled, "Look at that King Gaochang, how well he behaved?" With him, it is only a matter of time before the Western Regions surrenders.

By the way, now you can inform the people of the countries in the Western Regions who are determined to be Ming, and it is time to make some moves and put some pressure on these kings in the Western Regions.

Of course, don't make too much trouble, just surround their mansion and palace, and don't mess around, just ask for a resumption of work. ”

As soon as he heard Gao Chunxing say this, Murong Chengzhong also laughed.

And when Daming's side began to embark on a new round of planning.

The kings of the Western Regions are actually not idle, and are still discussing how to break the situation.

It's not that they're wasted, but if you really want to talk about it, they've thought of everything they can think of, and they've really thought about it, but the problem is that there's no solution.

Besides, economic warfare is a very unfamiliar field for them, and they have no experience in it at all, and they don't even know how to deal with it.

At first, I thought that as long as they worked hard to produce, they found out that production is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that the things produced in their hands can be realized......

After several days of deliberation and several negotiations, it was still difficult for the two sides to agree on their opinions.

Gao Chunxing is obviously not in a hurry, and is willing to spend time with them, but these guys in the Western Regions can't afford it.

And just after another negotiation collapsed, King Gaochang and others almost all received news from China, and the people made trouble!

In this way, everyone is even more helpless.

"This must be Da Ming's ghost!" King Gaochang immediately spoke.

The rest of the people also nodded when they heard this, otherwise the people who got 30% of their wages and didn't have to work, why did they start making trouble at this time?

You must know that they are afraid that the people will make trouble, so they are under extremely great pressure to support them with 30% of their wages first.

But at this juncture, they started again, which they did not expect.

"It can't be delayed any longer." King Guizi said, "If we continue like this, whether we can go back or not is another matter." ”

"How's that done? Daming doesn't let go, is it possible that we really want to rely on Daming? King Gaochang also said angrily.

"If you don't follow Daming, do you have a better way?" King Qiuzi said angrily, "Who doesn't know that the situation of all the countries in my Western Regions is now that the Ming Dynasty is playing ghosts, but what can you do?" The situation is stronger than people, Daming can delay, we can drag?

As for those people, they are definitely bewitched by the Ming Dynasty, there may not be many such people, but don't forget, people are from the herd, as long as someone starts, the rest of the people will follow suit, how will we deal with ourselves at that time?

The immediate priority is the immediate problem, and only by solving the immediate problem can we do something else.

Do you think this king is willing to compromise? ”

After saying that, King Qiuzi was also bored.

There's no way around it.

The point is that they are really powerless to solve the existing problems, even if they know that all this is a conspiracy of the Ming Dynasty, they can't solve it.

What's more interesting is that that night, King Shanshan quietly found Gao Chunxing alone, saying that Shanshan was willing to submit to the Ming Dynasty.

He can see that Daming's methods to deal with their Western Regions are not too simple.

In addition, they can't achieve a real alliance in the Western Regions, so if they really let the Ming army enter the countries of the Western Regions in the future, there is really a risk of dying at any time.

In this case, it is better to go directly to Daming.

Over the years, those who have returned to the Ming Dynasty have had a good life.

Moreover, it is difficult to say that there may be some benefits for returning to the Ming Dynasty earlier.

Gao Chunxing heard this, but he pretended to be disbelieving and said: "Isn't King Shanshan fooling his own official? ”

"Where does this king dare to fool Daming." King Shanshan said with a smile, "Actually, we all understand what is going on with Daming's move, but we don't cry when we don't see the coffin before."

The skills are not as good as others, and this king has nothing to say.

This time, my Shanshan is indeed sincerely obedient to the Ming Dynasty, but the king still has a small request, I don't know if the Ming can meet the king? ”

"The King, please?" Gao Chunxing said with a smile.

"As the king of Shanshan, this king is indeed unqualified, after all, he has not been able to lead Shanshan to dominate the Western Regions for so many years, but this king still hopes to live in Shanshan for a long time, after all, that is the root of this king, and this king is also old, and he doesn't want to leave his hometown."

King Shanshan said it very sincerely.

However, Gao Chunxing shook his head and said: "The king said that he laughed, if Shanshan submits to the Ming Dynasty, then the king of Shanshan will naturally be my important minister of the Ming Dynasty, and where he will go in the future will naturally be determined by my king." ”

What are you kidding, since he is obedient, how can he be allowed to go back?

This is absolutely impossible.

When King Shanshan heard this, he shook his head and said with a smile: "That's it, since that's the case, then the king won't insist." I also asked Gao Junshou to report to His Royal Highness King Ming as soon as possible on the matter of my Shanshan return. ”

With that, King Shanshan turned and left.

It's just that the figure is a little more gloomy.

After he left, Gao Chunxing smiled and said: "It's coming soon, come here, spread the news of Shanshan's submission to my Daming, this official wants to see, how long can the countries in the Western Regions hold out?"

Garrison? Hmph, do you really think it's just for the garrison? ”

And just as he finished speaking, King Gaochang walked out from behind and said with a smile: "I'll just say it, this Shanshan must be the first to come to my Daming." ”

"It's still King Gaochang who can see through." Gao Chunxing also said with a smile.

"Don't, don't." King Gaochang waved his hand, "I have been obedient to the Ming Dynasty for many years, but I don't deserve the title of king."

By the way, then again, does His Highness have a name? Didn't you ask His Highness to give me a Chinese name before? Can there be results? ”

"I almost forgot." Gao Chunxing said with a smile, "Your Highness has already sent a letter, you can read it for yourself." ”

With that, Gao Chunxing handed over a letter to King Gaochang.

King Gaochang opened the letter and glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Qingming? Isn't this a festival of the Han family? ”

"Yes." Gao Chunxing said with a smile, "But it is also an expectation of His Highness, His Highness hopes that King Gaochang will be an official in my Ming Dynasty in the future, honest and honest." ”

"And who is this river map?" King Gaochang asked again.

"If nothing else, Hetu should be the king of Shanshan." Gao Chun said, "Your Highness has sent all the names down this time, and King Gaochang is the first to submit to my Daming, so he is naturally the first to give names."

And those who are like the later who submit to my Ming Dynasty also have names.

The first is Qingming, the second is the river map, the third is the Chu River, and the fourth is the ...... at noon."

"Qingming, Hetu, Chu River, Noon?" After listening to Gao Chunxing, King Gaochang muttered a few times, "Why do you always feel weird......

Gao Chunxing didn't squeak when he heard the words, he also felt weird.

While these names sound good, they always feel a little off.

It's not like a normal name.

Of course, he didn't know that this was because Li Chengqian couldn't remember so many names, so he specially picked out a few words that he remembered.

The left and right names are also a code name, so it's easy to remember.

Tell the story tomorrow......
