- Chapter 444: Xiang Zhuang dances with the sword with the intention of Pei Gong
Chapter 444 Xiang Zhuang¡¯s sword dance is intended for Pei Gong
Duolang's daughter Dolma was canonized as a Tibetan concubine by the Chinese emperor. When the news came out, the Duolang family was very excited. However, other Tubo nobles had mixed reactions. Some were envious, jealous, and resentful. Of course, some people secretly scolded Duolang, thinking that Duolang was a Tibetan concubine. Lang recognized the thief as his father, a traitor and sinner of Tubo.
But no matter what, the Dolan family has received huge benefits and power.
Because Duolang was reused by the emperor, he became the unswerving executor of the emperor's idea of ??managing Tubo by the Tubo people. He became the big winner in this great turmoil and change.
Dolan¡¯s position of power has been consolidated and confirmed.
On the day when the Dolan family received the emperor's order, they held a banquet and entertained guests to celebrate.
As a result, many Tubo nobles targeted the emperor and came to the palace one after another to ask for an audience. Some even brought beautiful women from their own families and a large amount of gold, silver, and silk to request to be presented to the emperor.
Zhang Xuan patiently met these nobles one by one and accepted their court visits and gifts, but the women did not accept them.
The reason why Zhang Xuan canonized Zhuoma as his concubine was due to political considerations. In order to win the hearts of the Tibetan people, he showed that the emperor regarded the Tibetan people as his subjects. Otherwise, Dolma would be named a concubine at most.
Dolma himself was a little surprised. However, for Zhuoma, she was actually not willing to stay with the emperor, let alone live with him in the Central Plains. It's just that at this point, if she doesn't know how to praise her, her family will be affected. Under the repeated urging and even pleading of his father Dolan, Dolma accepted his fate.
An accidental encounter led to a huge turning point in her fate, which the young girl Dolma could not have imagined. However, following Zhang Xuan was not a blessing to her.
"If it were another conqueror, a Tubo woman, she would just take possession of her. She would not be given her status, let alone her love." But Zhang Xuan obviously won't be like this. Now that Zhuoma has become his woman, he will do his best to do his duty as a man.
More than ten years later, when Dolma¡¯s son was running around in the palace in Zhongjing, the Tibetan concubine Dolma realized that she was the lucky one among countless Tubo girls.
In a blink of an eye, it is October of the second year of Yongning, the season of crisp autumn air on the Tubo Plateau. Nan Jiyun led his army to attack everywhere, and the remnants of the Tubo soldiers were gradually eliminated, and the entire Tubo Plateau gradually returned to its former peace.
Just when Zhang Xuan was about to set off to return to the imperial court and return to Hexi from Tubo to attack Li Gong, news came: It was said that King Dabolu and King Xiaobolu led a delegation to Shenwu City to request an audience with the Chinese. His Majesty the Emperor.
After receiving the military report, Zhang Xuan temporarily canceled the trip and planned to stay in Shenwu City for three to five days to wait for these two foreign kings of small countries.
Bolu was originally a country, but it was defeated by the Tubo people and later divided into big and small Bolu. Those who stayed in the same place were called Big Bol¨¹, and those who moved northwest to Gilgit were called Little Bol¨¹.
From the second year of Empress Wu Tongtian to the Kaiyuan year, Da Bolu sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty three times. The Tang Dynasty successively established its monarchs. In the early years of Kaiyuan, King Xiaobolu was not busy because he was oppressed by Tibet and went to Chang'an in person to express his submission to the Tang Dynasty.
Since Xiaobolu was the main route for Tubo to attack the four towns of Anxi in the Tang Dynasty, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty believed that Xiaobolu was the west gate of the Western Regions and a place that must be saved. Beiting Jiedu envoy Zhang Xiaosong sent Shule deputy envoy Zhang Sili to lead 4,000 Western Region coalition troops to rescue him, but he was too busy to send troops to support and defeat Tubo.
Thereafter, in 722 Tang Dynasty, Feng Meijin became King Xiaobolu. After Wu Jin was busy, Su failed to succeed King Xiaobolu, but was defeated by the Tubo army. He was forced to surrender to Tubo and marry the Tubo princess as his concubine. The Tubo power then penetrated into the Western Regions, and more than 20 countries were all Tubo vassals. After that, the three Anxi Jiedushi envoys Tian Renwan, Gai Jiayun and Fumeng Lingjin made three expeditions but all failed. In 747, Gao Xianzhi, the deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu, was ordered to attack with ten thousand people on horseback. He divided his troops into three groups to capture the entire territory of Xiaobolu, and captured King Xiaobolu and his wife. The Tang Dynasty changed the name of the country to Gui Nen and set up Gui Ren army to guard it. After this battle, the countries in the Western Regions returned to the Tang Dynasty.
In the Battle of Talos, the Tang army was defeated by Dashi, and Xiaobolu and the surrounding areas once again surrendered to Tibet.
Xiaobolu was a vassal state of Tubo. Tubo was destroyed by the Chinese army. Of course, King Xiaobolu couldn't sit still. A small plateau country like this was weak and had to rely on a big country to survive. Therefore, King Xiaobolu came to court and asked for vassalage. It was within Zhang Xuan's expectation.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Da Bolu and the Great Cannibal. It seems strange that King Da Bolu can come to worship.
¡¡
¡¡
In the afternoon, Zhang Xuan, dressed in the emperor's formal attire, was sitting in the palace.
Guo Ziyi, Yang Lian, Nan Jiyun and other generals, as well as Duolang and other Tubo soldiers who surrenderedThe soldiers were arranged on both sides, and the envoys of King Bulu and others had arrived outside Shenwu City.
Guo Ziyi hesitated for a moment, then came out and clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, although Dabolu is a small country, the person who comes here is the master of a country after all. I am willing to go out of the city to greet you on your behalf to show the majesty of the Celestial Dynasty."
Zhang Xuan smiled calmly, "It's just a small place, a country with city walls, not as good as a state like mine. Prime Minister Guo is the commander-in-chief of hundreds of thousands of our army and the head of hundreds of officials in this great country. It's not worth it to condescend to me."
Zhang Xuan¡¯s words surprised Guo Ziyi slightly. The emperor was not so arrogant in the past, so uncharacteristically, he seemed to have an ulterior motive. Guo Ziyi thought for a while and did not dare to say anything more. She returned to class and stood still without saying any more.
??????????????????????????????????????????????
Zhang Xuan smiled and said, "Although it is a small country, we are guests from afar - Duolang, please go out of the city to greet us."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey your order." Dolan quickly saluted and accepted the order.
Zhang Xuan said again, "Nan Ba, you lead 5,000 troops and go out with Duo Lang to meet them."
Nan Jiyun immediately understood what the emperor meant and took the order and strode away.
Nan Jiyun led 5,000 Shence Army cavalry to stand solemnly on both sides of the Shenwu City Gate. Duolang and a few followers stood deserted at the city gate, looking at the arrival of the two teams from the smoke and dust not far away, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. A contemptuous smile.
Da Bolu Wang Zade and Xiao Bolu Wang Suzhan almost followed. Behind them were the car and horse teams, and there were property, cattle, sheep and horses, and singer Hu Nu in the car and horse teams.
When they saw the city gate on horseback, except for two rows of standing soldiers, there was no emperor's guard of honor, and they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. When they got closer, they found that not only did the Emperor of China not come to greet him in person, but even the ministers around him did not show up. Only the former Tubo Prime Minister Duolang came to greet him.
In this way, Zade and Su Zhan are no longer disappointed, but a little embarrassed.
Although they are kings of a small country, even though they are Tubo, every time they come to court, the King of Tubo will personally greet them. But this time, the legendary Chinese emperor turned out to be so arrogant and looked down upon them so much.
The two of them turned over and dismounted with gloomy expressions. Dolan smiled slightly and stepped forward, clasping his fists and saying, "Two kings, Dolan has been here to greet you for a long time under His Majesty's order."
Duolang is the Prime Minister of Tubo, and he is naturally an acquaintance with King Bolu.
Su Zhan forced a smile and said, "Master Duolang, I wonder if His Majesty the Emperor of China is in the city at this moment?"
Dolan nodded, "His Majesty is waiting at the palace."
Zad raised his eyebrows and said with a cold smile, "I came all the way to see His Majesty the Emperor of China, but I didn't expect that the Emperor was so arrogant and only sent Lord Dolan to greet him. I am really arrogant"
Dolan sneered in his heart, thinking that you two kings of a small country are nothing. Our Tubo country was so powerful that it was destroyed by the emperor's army. The tiny areas of Big and Little Bolu will be in ruins wherever the emperor's army goes.
Duolang smiled calmly and said, "Duolang is now the Marquis of Yongkang and the envoy of Pingkang Xuanfu. He has been summoned to welcome you. The two kings please quickly accompany me to the city to pay homage to His Majesty."
Little Bolu King Su Zhan sighed in his heart and was about to prepare to follow Duolang into the city. He is a vassal state of Tubo. Tubo will be destroyed soon, and the Chinese dynasty will be the new suzerain state. If he does not surrender and worship, he will be destroyed in the future.
But the Great Burud King Zade was different from the Little Burud King. He came here to test the reality of the Chinese dynasty. He realized that he had the alliance of the Congling countries behind him and the backing of the cannibals. Seeing the emperor's indifference, he became angry. Intention of retreat.
Zade smiled coldly, "Master Dolan, I came here to make a deal with Tubo. Since Tubo has been destroyed and the country no longer exists, I will say goodbye and return to my country."
Dolan's expression changed, and just as he was about to say something, Nan Jiyun, wearing armor, stepped forward and looked at Zaide with a cold smile, "His Majesty is waiting in the palace. It would be disrespectful for King Dabolu to pass through the door and not come in."
Zade raised his eyebrows and glanced at Nan Jiyun proudly, "Who are you?"
Nan Jiyun smiled calmly, clasped his fists and said, "A certain family is your Majesty's Marquis of Qingyuan, Commander-in-Chief of the Army of Henan, and General Zuowei of the Pingbo Army. That's Nan Jiyun!"
Zha De's expression changed suddenly, and Xiaobo Lu Wang Su Zhan was even more frightened and hurriedly paid homage to Nan Jiyun.
Nan Jiyun led his army to wipe out the rest of Tubo. In the past few months, he galloped on the Tubo Plateau, conquering all the battles and attacking, and his reputation spread far and wide, even to the land of Big and Small Bolu. The reputation of Nan Jiyun, a general of the Han army, was far greater than that of the important ministers who accompanied him like Guo Ziyi.
"It turns out to be General Nan Da!" Su Zhan stretched himself out and saluted, "Little Wang, you are polite!"
Zade also forced a smile, cupped his fists and saluted, not daring to say anything else.
This??People of foreign races advocate force, and armored generals like Nan Jiyun are, in a sense, more intimidating than the emperor.
"Your Majesty has ordered me and the Marquis of Yongkang to go out to greet you. The two kings will quickly enter the city and enter the palace to pay homage to Your Majesty!" Nan Jiyun was not concerned about himself and took the lead.
¡¡
¡¡
Zhang Xuan stood majestically behind the throne, looking down at the King of Big and Little Bolu who was kneeling under the stage.
"Okay, please take a seat, both of you." Zhang Xuan waved his hand.
Su Zhan and Zha De sat down on the left and right, and then Guo Ziyi and others sat down with them.
"Your Majesty, the little king has come to pay homage to Your Majesty, and as a sign of surrender, Xiao Bolu is willing to serve as a vassal state of China for generations to come, and will never rebel!" Su Zhan smiled respectfully, "The little king has brought the pearl produced by Xiao Bolu. Ten boxes of beautiful jade, 20 beauties, and hundreds of horses, please accept it with your Majesty's approval!"
Zad also smiled and reported his gift, but did not express any intention of surrender.
Zhang Xuan looked at the two of them with a smile on his face, and said calmly, "I will not accept your gifts. The land of Big and Small Bolu is poor in production, so such a generous gift will hurt the people."
"However, in my opinion, the territory of Big and Little Bolu is only a thousand miles away. They should be removed from their country names and merged into the territory of our superior state of China as one. I will canonize the two as kings and enjoy royal power and wealth, but they must be controlled by the imperial court." Zhang Xuan waved his hand and said in a deep voice.
Su Zhan and Zaide were suddenly shocked, and their faces turned red.
Zhang Xuan¡¯s fluttering words mean that he is going to destroy the big and small Bol¨¹ Kingdom! To remove the name of the country and incorporate it into the territory as a way of the Chinese dynasty, is this not the destruction of the country?
Su Zhan¡¯s mouth trembled and he was speechless for a moment.
But Zaide was furious, stood up and said angrily, "Why did your Majesty say such a thing! I am here to see the emperor of the state, and I think I have good intentions. But it has been a hundred years since I, Da Bolu, have established my country. Your Majesty wants to go to our country to fight with me." What¡¯s the difference in destroying my country?¡±
"Although our country, Dabol¨¹, is small, it still has tens of thousands of soldiers, and there are even more alliance countries behind it. If your majesty insists on having your own way, please forgive me for not following it!"
"I bid farewell!"
Zade was about to walk away angrily.
Zhang Xuan sneered, and suddenly slapped the table, "I will destroy Tubo in the blink of an eye, and I can destroy you, Big Bolu, with just a little effort. You can leave, I won't kill you, and I won't stop you, but if you want to You know, you missed the opportunity I gave you, and when my army arrives, Da Bolu will be destroyed and his country will be destroyed!"
Zad smiled coldly, cupped his fists and said, "I will be waiting for Your Majesty!"
Zad walked away in a hurry.
He relied on his strong national power and the support of the cannibals behind him. He felt that the Chinese dynasty did not have the power to extend its power to the Western Regions and Congling, so naturally he felt confident. Moreover, Zhang Xuan's "suggestion" has touched his bottom line, and destroying the country is unacceptable to him.
Nan Jiyun stood up suddenly and was about to stop Zade when Zhang Xuan laughed loudly and said, "Nan Ba, let him go. Zade, please remember, it can take as little as one year or as long as two years. Our army will be ready to attack." Under King Lu's city! At that time, I will chop off your head to show the public!"
Zhang Xuan¡¯s voice immediately turned cold. Zhade's heart trembled, but he did not stop. He hurriedly ran out of the Tubo Palace, then mounted his horse and left the city. He led his escort team and left all their belongings behind to escape from Tubo.
After Zaide left, the atmosphere in the palace suddenly became silent and depressing. Only the rapid and trembling breathing of Little Bolu King Su Zhan could be heard.
Zhang Xuan slowly turned to look at Su Zhan, "Su Zhan, what do you think?"
Su Zhan was silent, hanging his head, his shoulders trembling slightly.
Although he wanted to resist, he did not have the courage of King Zade, let alone Zade's backing and support. Moreover, he was even more timid, fearing that he would offend Zhang Xuan and risk his life here.
"Why, Su Zhan, didn't you hear what I said clearly?" Zhang Xuan asked lightly.
Su Zhan's mind flashed with lightning, and he secretly gritted his teeth and said, "Su Zhan is willing to surrender to Your Majesty and dedicate Xiao Bolu to Your Majesty."
Su Zhan¡¯s plan to be a good man and not suffer immediate losses is just a word. We will wait until he returns to the country to see the situation. If the Chinese dynasty is determined to destroy Big and Little Bolu, then Little Bolu can only join forces with Big Bolu to fight against China.
Zhang Xuan laughed loudly, "Okay, I remember Su Zhan's words. Come and pass on my decree, change Xiaobolu to Guining, and confer Su Zhan as the King of Guining The imperial court will send personnel to Xiaobolu soon. Establish a Taoist office, Su Zhan, don¡¯t let me down."
"I don't dare." Su Zhan bowed, his attitude becoming more and more humble.
"Okay, let's have a banquet to cleanse Su Zhan!"
¡¡
¡??
After the banquet, King Xiaobolu Suzhan left the palace, but he left the palace and the city that night to escape from Tubo.
When Zhang Xuan got the news, she couldn't help but laugh.
Guo Ziyi and Yang Lian looked at each other, stepped forward and asked together, "Your Majesty, this"
The two of them were really not sure what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd. If you want to destroy the big and small Bolu, you can just go north from here while the army is in Tibet. I believe it will not be difficult to destroy such two small countries. But the emperor had no intention of sending troops Could it be that the emperor thought that with just a few words of his own, big and small Bolu could abandon the country and surrender?
How can this be?
"Prime Minister Guo, Yang Lian, do you think that I am too childish about the matter of Big and Little Bolu?" Zhang Xuan smiled slightly.
Guo Ziyi and Yang Lian quickly bowed and said respectfully, "I don't dare. It's just that Your Majesty, the words of King Xiao Bolu are unreliable. Although he verbally surrendered to our court and promised to lead the country to surrender, he fled Tubo overnightI'm afraid"
"I never thought that Big and Little Bolu would surrender to our country. But sooner or later, I will destroy these two countries!"
Zhang Xuan said coldly.
Big and small Bolu are sandwiched between the Western Regions and Tubo. Zhang Xuan has destroyed Tubo, and next, he will attack more than a hundred city-states in the entire Western Region. In this way, how can Big and Small Bolu be in the future he planned? "Survival" in the territory? There is only one way to bring destruction into the territory.
"If Ke Xin guessed correctly, your Majesty's move will kill two birds with one stone, and lure the snake out of its hole."
Tian Kexin walked in slowly from the entrance of the palace and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is warning Dabolu and even the countries with the nine surnames of Congling and Zhaowu that if they do not surrender, they will be dead. At the same time, your Majesty also wants Dabolu to surrender." King Lu asked the big cannibal for help Based on Kexin¡¯s judgment, your majesty will fight against the big cannibal in the future to wash away the shame of Talos¡¯ defeat!¡±
Zhang Xuan stared at Tian Kexin for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Kexin is the one who knows me."
"Yes, my move is Xiangzhuang's sword dance with the intention of attacking Peigong. The small and large Bolu land is not in my eyes. For me, the biggest enemy of our dynasty is the Arabs, that is, the Great cannibal."
"If our government wants to pacify the Western Regions, it must eliminate the huge foreign threat of cannibalism. If the cannibals do not retreat, the ambitions of the barbarians in the Western Regions will not retreat, which is not conducive to the long-term peace and stability of the Western Regions. As for Tubo and Tibet, the cannibals are still there. The tigers on the green hills are watching eagerly, and they will definitely become hidden dangers."
"Gao Xianzhi was defeated at the hands of the cannibal. In my heart, this is a huge shame for our superior country, China."
"I hope to regroup the army, cross the Coongling Mountains, and fight the big man-eater! I hope to enhance the power of our country's military and fully integrate the Western Region into the territory of our country This battle may take place next year, or the year after that, Or even further! But this battle is indispensable!"
"Do you have the confidence and courage to fight with me?!" Zhang Xuan said with solemn eyes.
"In the fight for China, I will go through fire and water without hesitation! Long live my emperor!"
Guo Ziyi and others prostrated themselves on the ground.
