The person Ada wanted to see was Qu Dibo, King of Anguo. This person had defected to Dashi very early. When an uprising broke out in Dashi last year, he sent more than ten thousand troops to help the black-clad Dashi suppress it. But this person also sent people to Chang'an, and even secretly invited Tang Dynasty to expel Dashi. He was another wallflower. Qu Dibo was recruited by Dashi this time and sent more than ten thousand troops to help in the battle. However, on the battlefield that day, he was actually just a soy sauce thing. At this time, Qu Dibo was shocked when he heard that Aluda from Julan City had come to see him. This Aluda was a confidant of King Dou Zhongjie of Bhanna. Could he be trying to meet him in private? Persuade him to join the Tang Dynasty? Without much thought, Qu Dibo sold Alida, so not long after, Alida was brought to Ziad. "What did King Bukhan send you to do?" a general asked Ada. Alida glared at Qu Dibo who was chatting aside, and then bowed down in front of Ziad: "Messenger of the true God, great governor, our king sent me to ask for an audience with you, but because I was afraid that you would blame me, I asked Qu Dibo Wang Juzhong made an introduction. "What does your rogue king want?" Ziad asked. The relationship between the countries in the river is complicated, and there are all kinds of scheming in the Tang army. It is for this reason that he got some information about the Tang army, but it was not accurate, so he paid great attention to Alida. "The king said that he was deceived by villains before and was confused for a while and sided with the Tang state. Now he has woken up and is willing to convert to the true God and spread the glory of the true God." "That's all? Pull him out and chop off his head. "Ziyad said expressionlessly. Alida was frightened. He knelt down and said, "It's true. Our king said that in order to express his sincerity, he is willing to report the truth and falsehoods of the Tang people to the governor." Ziad was not a governor at all. Alida called him this, just Just flattering. Hearing Alida talk about the truth and falsehoods of the Tang people, Ziad finally became interested: "You said" "The Tang people were defeated miserably under Talas City, losing tens of thousands of people, and most of those who fled back were injured. Although Another general from the Tang Dynasty brought reinforcements, but now, the number of soldiers that the Tang Dynasty can fight will not exceed 40,000. ""Does that include your man Bahan?" "Not included, we still have more than 20,000 people. But the people of the Tang Dynasty did not regard us as human beings. Their coach Gao Xianzhi was afraid of the true god¡¯s warriors and even killed our people when he escaped at night¡± Alida told Gao Xianzhi how he killed Ba Khan¡¯s man while trying to escape. Once again, Ziad was doubtful, but the person from Geluolu next to him interrupted: "Gao Xianzhi is greedy and arrogant. He can indeed do such a thing." "I heard that the Tang Dynasty sent a new general. I wonder how this person is like?" Ziad asked. . "That new general?" Aluda had met Ye Chang once. Hearing this question, he looked a little disdainful: "Too young. I heard from people in the Tang Dynasty that he was only twenty-seven years old. The reason why he can become General, that's because he is the son-in-law of the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. He is very proficient in medical skills. I have seen him treating wounded soldiers. It is said that he established the military medical system in the Tang army" Ziad frowned suddenly. The prisoners of the Tang army he captured this time were different from any other army that had fought before. They were accompanied by many military doctors. And through interrogating the prisoners, he also knew that the Tang Army had established a very complete military medical system, which he desperately wanted. "How many military doctors are there in the Tang army now?" "There are at least several hundred of them. They are all wearing white robes. I can see clearly." Alada said. Ziad's heart suddenly became hot. Dashi respects doctors very much, not to mention He was a military doctor who was good at surgery and emergency treatment on the battlefield. Ziad forced the captured Tang Army doctors to treat the wounded soldiers in the diet. Their skillful skills and superb medical skills left a deep impression on Ziad. "In addition, speaking of this new general, there is another thing. He has a very bad relationship with Gao Xianzhi. Relying on the power of the prime minister's father-in-law, he has deprived Gao Xianzhi of his military power. Now Gao Xianzhi is under house arrest and can no longer command. Fighting." "Is this true?" Ziad suddenly stood up from his seat. "It's absolutely true, Your Majesty the Governor, I dare not lie at all. This is what our king told me personally" At this point, Alida was hesitant. "What are you thinking about? Just say it." "Our king is in awe of Gao Xianzhi. If Gao Xianzhi still had military power, he would not dare to betray the Tang Dynasty. But now the military power is in the hands of a young man who doesn't even have a beard. We The king is very worried" Ziad sat back down, his nose as curved as an aquiline twitched a few times, as if sniffing the air for any dangerous smell. All this was so coincidental that he couldn't help but be pregnantSuspicious, there is a conspiracy behind it. "What does your king want?" Ziad asked after a while. "Our king hopes to become a minister of Dashi and guard the eastern border for Dashi" "To put it bluntly, if you continue to play such cunning, you will be dead." "Yes, yes, our king hopes to obtain broken leaves. "In addition, we hope that the captured Tang craftsmen can be given to us." "How many craftsmen are there in the Tang army now?" "Most of the Tang army's craftsmen have stayed in Julan City. If these can be confirmed by the information Ziad asked from the prisoners, Ziad secretly had his own plan in mind when he heard that there were more than 10,000 craftsmen. He was an ambitious man, and he hoped that he could truly become the governor instead. He is just a general. If he gets more than 10,000 craftsmen, his strength can quickly expand, even surpassing his current boss Abu Muslim. If he can take advantage of the situation to invade Suiye and even Anxi, then he can monopolize Tongtong. The trade route to China will bring endless benefits, and if possible, he will become the master of China and let the huge and prosperous Silk Country become his cow. Thinking of this, Ziad no longer hesitated: "Your king wants to abandon the dark side. Guiming, I welcome him very much, but he must show his sincerity" Prince Yuanen of Shiguo next to him said grimly: "Don't Dou Zhongjie have a son named Xue Yu? Let him be the great leader. Only by serving the country with food can you show your loyalty. " It is a common thing to take a son as a hostage. For example, this Yuan En was once sent to Chang'an, half as tribute and half as a hostage. After hearing this, Ziad felt that it was very reasonable and looked at Alida. : "That's it. I heard that your king also married a princess from Tang Dynasty? Kill the princess. ¡± Before Arada came, he was prepared to encounter harsh conditions. He never thought that the conditions would be so harsh. This was the reason why Bukhan completely cut off the possibility of reconciliation with Datang and was firmly controlled by Dashi. It was a matter of great importance, and even though he was an envoy, he couldn't decide. He humbly said: "This matter is not something I, a small envoy, can decide. I will go back and report it to the king. " After Aluda left, Yuanen immediately stood up. His hatred for the man who led the Tang Dynasty into the river was definitely not inferior to that of the Tang Dynasty, so he bowed before Ziad: "General, that man Ba ??Khan repeatedly Impermanence, they once took refuge in the True God, but later they rebelled, and then took refuge in the Tang State, and now they rebel against the Tang State Such a country is completely untrustworthy. Please allow me to be the vanguard, general, to get the head of King Ba Khanna. Presented in front of the general." Ziad waved his hand and said pleasantly: "Of course I know that Bukhan cannot be trusted, but now I need him to stab the Tang people in the back. Don't worry, China has plenty of land and wealth. There are slaves and craftsmen, and I will satisfy you all. " Of course, to make yourself most satisfied. "Ziyad has said so, Yuan En can't say anything else. He can only silently swallow this fruit, and then wait for the next opportunity. It only took one day, Alida once again When he came back, he was accompanied by Xue Yu, the prince of Bakhna. This Xue Yu's expression was a little heavy, and he seemed unhappy about being a hostage. After confirming his identity, Ziyad ordered. The man picked him up and "entertained him well", and then said to Aloda: "Where is the princess of Tang Dynasty? " "The king went on an expedition with the Tang people, and the prince took him with him to practice, but the princess was a woman, so it was not easy to take her with him. And if he killed the princess now, I'm afraid the Tang people would be suspicious. Alada said with a grimace: "Your Majesty the Governor, you don't want us to alarm the Tang people and make them run back, right?" " "Are you afraid that the Tang people will run back? "I'm very afraid. If they escape back, they will definitely be commanded by the King of the Mountain. Except for the governor, that general has never been defeated." Ziad smiled, feeling a little contempt in his heart. The so-called King of the Mountain in these small river countries is actually It¡¯s also very average, at least under his own attack, he is obviously at a disadvantage. ¡°In this case, I will prepare to attack the Tang people. "He looked around the tent and saw that the leaders of various countries were here, so he decided: "Taking advantage of the good weather now, we will defeat the Tang people in one fell swoop and then enter Anxi." This is an ambitious strategy, and all the Tocharians present are very excited about it. They were excited, but most of the monarchs and generals of the countries in the river were silent. Compared with Khorasan, the Tocharians, and the Persians, the influence of the Tang Dynasty in the river area was still there. Except for those like Yuan En who were eager for revenge, most people were not interested in the challenge. The Tang Dynasty did not have much confidence. These small countries had always vacillated between the Tang Dynasty and the Dashi. When the power of the Tang Dynasty was strong, they introduced the Dashi to fight against the Tang. When the Dashi was in their territory, When the levies were excessive, they would petition the Tang Dynasty to conquer Dashi. Both the Tang Dynasty and Dashi were exhausted.??That is the best outcome for them. "I know what you are thinking in your hearts. When I crusade against rebellion, you have also seen my methods." Ziad just glanced at them and guessed what they were thinking clearly, so he warned: " Anyone who betrays me is the enemy of the true God. My holy warriors will use scimitars and blazing fire to send him and his family to hell." Thinking of the cruelty he showed when suppressing the remnants of the white-clothed food, everyone was shocked. He couldn't help but lower his head. "Compared with the cannibals, the Tang Dynasty can be said to be extremely tolerant towards the countries in the river. Except for Gao Xianzhi, who was treacherous, greedy and cruel, most of the other Anxi or Beiting Jiedu were tolerant. There will be no compulsory taxation because the countries in the river do not believe in Taoism or Buddhism, nor will they find any excuse to plunder their countries, let alone endless extortion. Perhaps it is this kind of kindness that makes the countries in the river less afraid. As the sage said, villains are afraid of power but not virtuous. It is okay to govern the country with virtue, but when fighting the enemy with virtue, hoping to influence the enemy in this way, either That's stupid, or you have ulterior motives. "All ministries obey my orders." Seeing that there was no more opposition, Ziad began to issue orders. Shi Guo naturally acted as the vanguard. After the last battle, Yuan En only had 3,000 troops left in his hands. This was Shi Guo's last strength. Because he had insufficient troops, Ziad incorporated the Grolu people into his army. After him came the coalition forces of the countries in the river. Ziad did not expect these ragtag groups to be able to attack the enemy. His idea was to use these losers to consume the Tang army's physical strength, and to let them test whether the Tang army had an ambush. The Dashi headquarters was placed at the end. In Ziad's view, even if the surrender of Bukhan was fraudulent, his arrangement was enough to ensure the safety of the Dashi headquarters. After deciding on the order of dispatching troops, the next step was to determine the time to attack. The Dashi Army, like the Tang Army, were both good at sudden attacks, so now that they had made up their mind, Ziad ordered the entire army to set off the next day. Ah Lida got the accurate information, and immediately sneaked back to Ba Khan's military camp. After reporting to Dou Zhongjie, he sighed: "If the Tang Dynasty is defeated, I'm afraid they will come back in two or three years. If Dashi doesn't send troops to help, even if we seize Sui Yechuan, we may not be able to hold it. " "Who said we really want to seize Suiye Chuan?" Dou Zhongjie sneered. "What does your Majesty mean?" "Now you can tell the truth No, you and I go to see Ye Zhongcheng and tell him everything Ziad said to you." Alida opened his mouth wide and did not react for a long time. It wasn't until Dou Zhongjie walked to the door and looked back at him that he came back to his senses: "This is this fake?" "Of course it is fake, Datang or Dashi, who should I choose between the two? Do you need to ask?" Dou Zhongjie snorted, his face distorted: "Eating too much, if you follow him, you will be eaten without even the bones. This lesson is enough once." "This Thisthis is a clever plan, but what should the prince do? Why should he hide it from me?" Alida couldn't help but said. "Where the prince is, I have arranged people around him. I will naturally remind him when the time comes. I'm hiding it from you It's not that I don't believe you. This is Ye Zhongcheng's confession. He said that if you want to deceive the enemy, you have to connect your own people. They were all cheated together." Dou Zhongjie smiled and admired Ye Chang's words in his heart. Like him, Aloda couldn't help but sigh after chewing these words in his heart: "This Ye Zhongcheng is much smarter than Gao Xianzhi."
