Chapter 289: Who's in Charge?
"Sage, most of the Anxi capital escorted the song, and please ask the sage to take a look."
Li Jing was about to reject Da Shi's proposal to want the Khorasan region, and Guo Yuanzhen's song was sent in.
Ximen Yang stepped forward, took the song from Anxi from the hand of the inner servant, turned back to Li Jing, and handed the song to Li Jing.
Li Jing took the song and looked at it, and Guo Yuanzhen claimed that he expected that Dashi would send an envoy to Chang'an, and he might ask Datang to withdraw his troops and give them Khorasan.
If this matter is agreed, it will hurt the hearts of the small Central Asian countries that belong to Datang, which is not a good thing for Datang and will not do Datang any benefit.
If you refuse directly, Da Shi will definitely become Datang's henchman, and he will definitely find an excuse to invade Datang in the future, and he should use a strategy for this matter, so that the other party has nothing to say!
It is better to tell the Great Food Envoy: The Tang Dynasty sent troops to garrison Central Asia in order to maintain peace in Central Asia and keep weak countries from being infringed upon.
If the Great Food does not have the intention of invading the east, it should be returned to the Persian capital of Tessiphon, and the Tang Dynasty will return to the Great Food with the Khorasan region.
In this way, it not only stuffs the mouth of the big food, but also keeps shaking hands and hoping for peace.
If the Great Eclipse is disobedient, the whole world will know that the fault lies in the Great Eclipse, and in the world of those who win the hearts of the people, everyone will stand up against the Great Eclipse, so that the Great Eclipse will give birth to chaos.
Dashi has continuous civil strife, which is a good thing for Datang.
"You go back and tell the Great Emissary that it is not impossible to want the Khorasan region, but they want to return the territory belonging to Persia and the capital of the Sassanid Empire, Ctesiphon."
"If the Great Eclipse can do this, I can make the decision for Persia and assign the Khorasan region to the Great Eclipse, if this can't be done, then forget it!"
"As for the garrison in Central Asia, this is to maintain the security of the local countries, and there are no other intentions, so let the Great Food Envoy not panic!"
Li Jing said softly.
His understatement will find a reason for the war between the two sides in the future.
Now even if the Great Eclipse raises the strength of the whole country to attack, Li Jing is not afraid!
As long as the hearts of the countries of the Western Regions are towards the Tang Dynasty, it is not a problem for the Tang Dynasty to defeat the Great Food.
As long as Datang can guarantee that the countries of Central Asia will not be invaded by the Great Eclipse, they will not betray the Datang, let alone switch to the Great Eclipse.
"The minister must convey the words of the saint to the Great Eclipse Messenger, but the Great Eclipse Emissary may not agree."
Honglu Siqing replied with his hands crossed, feeling that Li Jing's proposal would not be agreed to by the Great Food Envoy.
As for the return of the Sassanid territory, the Great Eclipse would never agree to it, and the Great Eclipse was originally a people under the rule of the Sassanid Empire.
"What does it matter if Da Shi agrees or not?"
Li Jing sneered after hearing this, who wants Da Shi to agree?
It doesn't really mean much to disagree, what we want now is to stabilize the other party.
"Got it!"
Honglu Temple Qing bowed and retreated.
Speaking of the Great Eclipse, one has to talk about their Prophet Abu Qasim Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib bin Hashem.
The Prophet Muhammad founded Allah in Mecca.
From then on, he embarked on the path of propagandism, but in his heart he wanted to build a powerful empire in order to overthrow the Sassanid Empire.
The chaos in Egypt, coupled with years of war between Byzantium and Persia, made the Persian Gulf-Red Sea-Nile trade route impassable.
This forced the merchants to take the overland route, which made Mecca more prosperous in the middle of the new trade route!
The Prophet Muhammad spread the teachings in Mecca on the pretext of being commanded by Allah.
The Prophet Muhammad targeted the poor first, then the merchants, the nobility, and eventually, the ruling circles of Mecca, with the Umayyad family at its core.
Fearing that the Prophet Muhammad would threaten his rule, the Umayyads and other nobles began to persecute Muhammad.
In 622 A.D., Muhammad was forced to flee and move to the city of Yathreb.
When the Prophet Muhammad came to the city of Yathreb, he changed his name to Medina al-Nabi, which means "City of the Prophets", or simply Medina.
It was here that the Prophet Muhammad mediated disputes between the original tribes of the city and gained greater prestige.
The Prophet Muhammad then began to implement his plan to call the followers who had come from Mecca the Emigrants and the Helpers to the Medina.
With them as the basic force, the commune of Uma was formed, and a charter based on the principles of Allah was established as a guideline for internal and external affairs.
The Prophet Muhammad claimed that he was authorized by Allah to command the commune of Uma to protect his nascent regime and to fight back against the Umayyad in Mecca, claiming that it was a self-defensive counterattack.
In 624, Muhammad's side attacked an armed caravan of the Umayyad in Mecca, leading to the Battle of Berder, which was able to win more with less.
This was not only a heavy blow to the Umayyad family, but was also seen by Allah as the result of Allah's help.
It greatly changed Muhammad's perception of him among the Medinas, expanding the influence of Allah.
In the years that followed, Muhammad fought twice with the Meccan army.
As the army led by the Prophet Muhammad grew stronger and victorious, Muhammad took the opportunity to build the most powerful theocratic state by sending his disciples to preach Allah.
As Allah's power on the peninsula became stronger, Muhammad's army came to Mecca, and the two sides concluded a treaty to force everyone in Mecca to join Allah.
Muhammad fought everywhere and eventually unified the peninsula and began to establish a unified Great Food Nation with Allah as the core.
After Muhammad's death, the tribal chiefs who joined the tribe felt that there was no one to cure them, and they were restored to their original state, as they did not appoint an heir.
The followers of Allah naturally could not tolerate it, and in order to better gather the strength of the believers, they finally elected Abu Bakr, a friend of Muhammad, as the leader after consultation, called the caliph.
Under the leadership of the caliphate, it was under his leadership that the Great Food Peninsula was once again reunited, and then began a foreign war, which was even more shamelessly called a defensive offensive.
They first attacked the Sassanid dynasty that ruled them, much to the annoyance of the Persians, who had not taken the cannibal seriously.
After the continuous efforts of four generations of caliphs, the Sassanid Empire was finally destroyed and a powerful empire was established that spanned three continents.
The Prophet's descendants fought with the Umayyad family for power, and eventually the Umayyad family won and formally established the hereditary Umayyad dynasty.
This was also met with strong opposition from the Shiites, who only recognized the Prophet's cousin and son-in-law, Ali ibn Abi Talib, and Ali's direct descendants as the heirs of the Prophet Muhammad.
This is also the reason why Da Shi does not dare to follow the Tang Dynasty, otherwise, the internal opposition will definitely deal a heavy blow to the Umayyad Dynasty.
Some people died, but not completely......
