Tang Dynasty Never Night

After Li Xian received the news, he almost laughed like crazy, oh my god, the money is here!

You must know that Dashi used to go to Luoyang, the capital of gods, and signing with them now is a unilateral agreement with Datang. As for Luoyang... let Dashi figure out a way, anyway, they in spite of.

Li Xian asked Zheng Qi to sit in the township and ran to Basra by himself, Zheng Qi decided not to comment on Li Xian's decision to go crazy.However, Lou Shide was relieved to see Li Xian coming, because the Dashi King actually came to Basra directly. In this case, Lou Shide’s status as a dialogue with the other party is not enough, even if Zheng Qi comes, so the two of them will not easily fall into the trap. Passive, it is not easy to win any benefits.

Now I just hope that Li Xian can give a little more effort. Li Xian has already started writing various terms and conditions on the way here. To be honest, Li Xian couldn't help touching his chest to confirm that his conscience was still there after writing those terms.

But to be honest, there is no need for such a thing as conscience in a country-to-country contest. Oh, you came to beat us first, and you want us to be kind after the fight?If we were really kind, we would be so sorry for those soldiers who died because of the war.

Thinking of this, Li Xian couldn't help but be more ruthless. Anyway, Dashi has occupied so much land, if they don't exploit them, who will they exploit?After Li Xian wrote almost the terms, he began to study the pension. Lou Shide did not forget to send the list of the dead when he sent out the battle report.

But these lists are only part of the list, and there are still a considerable number of people who don’t know what to do, and every war is accompanied by the loss of lives, even if they are numb to the war itself, but in Li Xian was still very sad when he saw those soldiers who were disabled due to the war.

After seeing Lou Shide, he didn't mention the matter of meeting the Dashi King immediately, but first went to condolences to the soldiers, especially Jiu Bin, the governor of Anxi Governor's Mansion, and the army led by him.

Jiu Bin was originally supposed to be a handsome young man, but this battle left him with a scar on his face, from the corner of his left forehead obliquely avoiding his eyes to the bridge of his nose, making his otherwise good-looking appearance even more hideous.

Jiu Bin was obviously very excited when he saw Li Xian. He was lying on the bed because of his injuries, but when he got up he was about to kneel. But the strength is not as strong as that of Jiu Bin.

Jiu Bin is a very upright person, looked at Li Xian and said with shame: "Humble... I don't believe in the Regent, so I sent a memorial to Ni Zhou, but from now on, I, Jiu Binsheng, will be the Regent The king's people, His Highness will go through fire and water at the command of His Majesty!"

Life is mine or something... Be careful, Zheng Qi will kill you if he finds out!Li Xian complained in his heart, but said nervously: "Jiu Duhu, please get up quickly, you are injured, why should you stick to common etiquette?"

Jiu Bin insisted on kowtowing before allowing Li Xian's guards to help him back to the bed. He shook his head and said, "No, I didn't kowtow for myself, but for the two thousand and two hundred Erlang, if there is no His Highness, I am afraid...these Erlang would not be alive today."

Although Jiu Bin has no mind, he is not bad at all in terms of marching and fighting. He fully understands the impact of Li Xian's truce at such a critical juncture. They all admitted it, even though they still claimed that they were Ni Zhou, they issued credentials to the other party, and issuing credentials is actually a disguised recognition of the other party's status.

Many people think that Li Xian is bearing the burden of humiliation, but Li Xian doesn't care at all. Even if he doesn't admit Da Zhou, can he easily win?History is written by the victors. In the future, if Li Xian wins, then he can write whatever he wants about Da Zhou, but if he loses...then there is no more, okay?

Li Xian went to the countryside in Anxi Duhu Mansion to give condolences, and even the families of the soldiers sent some condolences. The only thing that is fortunate is that there are soldiers' files in the Duhu Mansion. Those who are missing... can only be counted as missing temporarily, not counted as missing people die.

However, Li Xian also found it quite strange. This place in Anxi is the Western Region. There are no mountains, rivers and ravines in the Western Region. It is true that it is easy to get lost in the Gobi, but... no one likes to fight in the Gobi, right?Not even with a guide.

So now the question arises, how did these people disappear?

Just when Li Xian was wondering, Lou Shide couldn't help reminding: "It may be a deserter."

After hearing this, Li Xian suddenly realized that the previous situation was too dangerous. If Li Xian didn't pull out his hand to clean up the food, it is estimated that the Anxi Dufu Mansion would be wiped out by the entire army. It is not very strange that the timid can't help being a deserter.

Datang severely punished deserters, because in this era, no one is willing to serve as a soldier, and ordinary soldiers are forced civilians. Some people may say that those who are desperate can serve as soldiers, but it is also very strict to serve as a soldier in this era. Yes, if you are not a good citizen, you will not be recruited.

There are also two types of punishment for deserters, one is to go to the battlefield, and the other is to guard the garrison. The deserters who guard the garrison are punished lightly. One class will be added every day, up to three thousand miles away; while those who go to the battlefield will be punished for one year every day, and one class will be added every day, and they will be sentenced to hang if they flee for more than [-] days.

The soldiers who are still missing on the list are not really dead, so they will die even if they come back.Li Xian sighed. At this time, he couldn't say that he shouldn't be punished like this. After all, if this precedent is set, if the soldiers feel that the punishment is not heavy and they will desert, the battle will be impossible.

The only thing Li Xian can do is to find a way to increase food production to release the labor force, and then improve the treatment of soldiers, and open up a little more channels for promotion. Well, maybe military academies can do it too?

It's just that these days military law is passed down from the families of the generals, not from men to women, if the son is really not suitable, he will find a disciple to inherit the mantle, let them selflessly contribute the experience gained by their ancestors to teach others , it is estimated that many people do not want to.

Don't worry about this, you have to ask Zheng Qi later.

Li Xian was thinking about these things in his heart, but he could hold his breath. When he arrived at the border, it was like he was on a tourist trip, and he couldn't help it when he arrived at Lou Shide.

Lou Shide and Li Xian are also very familiar. Although everyone now thinks that the regent is the emperor in the actual sense, he treats Li Xian the same as when Li Xian was the prince many years ago. He met Li Xian He asked directly: "Your Highness, when do you plan to meet the King of Food?"

Li Xian was writing the articles of association of the military academy. After hearing Lou Shide's words, Li Xian said without raising his head, "They applied?"

Call... apply... Lou Shide wiped the sweat in his heart and asked: "The other party is..."

"Whoever loves is who, if we don't accept it, we will continue to beat him. At the end of the day, he will become a bereaved dog. I don't see how he pretends." After Li Xian finished speaking, he felt very refreshed. He hadn't been so happy for many years. After all Involuntarily, although Datang is not a big place now, even if he doesn't say that he is right, it is almost the same.

After hearing this, Lou Shide choked for a moment. He never expected that the gentle and polite prince in his eyes would have the attributes of a rascal.

But Lou Shide is just asking, as the victor, it is possible to put forward any reason, and now he is just waiting for the opponent to bow his head first, what's wrong?

And Dashi is about to go crazy with anger, Dashi King came here in person to use his identity to suppress Datang, so as not to let himself suffer too much, he had already sent a letter to that side before, he knew The little emperor of Tang Dynasty definitely couldn't come in person, even if he came in person, he wouldn't be afraid.

But he never expected that the other party's posture was so high, and Da Shi Wang was so angry. Since the other party was like this, he simply said shamelessly: "Since they ignore us, there is no need for peace talks."

If you don't take the initiative to talk to us, do we still have to send money?Dashi also has dignity, right?In other words, Dashi at this time has never suffered a loss except for the unexpected loss in the face of Datang.

In the real history, Dashi can also maintain a certain winning rate when facing Datang, but Li Xian was born out of nowhere. What kind of family has evolved and made a hot air balloon!

The injustice of the big food loser, spies are not popular these days, even if there are, it is difficult to get into the center of the Tang Dynasty - people require innocence, and even ask for children from aristocratic families, you can tell that you are not from other people's family Yes, it's not easy to mix.

As for the leading party... These days, educated people have a backbone, and they can only become ones unless they are really unable to survive, but how can it be possible for the children of the aristocratic family to get mixed up to this point?

Hate, Dashi King walked around the camp eight times angrily, and finally made such a rogue decision, all the officers in Dashi... had nothing to say.

And Li Xian is even more straightforward, aren't you pretending to be dead?Come on, get on a hot air balloon.

When Dashi saw the hot air balloon flying up again, his legs went limp, okay?The King of Food looked so cowardly from top to bottom that he hated him so much that he pinched his nose and handed over his credentials in the end, requesting an interview with the Regent.

Li Xian threw it directly to the official historian after reading the credential, snorted coldly and said, "If you don't drink a toast, you will be fined."

Lou Shide breathed a sigh of relief, he was really worried about fighting again.

The meeting between Li Xian and Da Shi Wang was... not warm at all, not warm at all, not friendly at all.Li Xian's face is tender, in his 30s, he looks the same as someone in his 20s, which makes Da Shi Wang look down on him.

Li Xian doesn't care at all about the arrogance of the Da Shi Wang who relies on the old to sell the old. You are arrogant. Anyway, you will provoke us again. Wait for me to free up. I don't mind adding a colony, and directly expand the territory to the entire Eurasian continent. Think about it. It's very touching, isn't it?

When Li Xian proposed his terms, Da Shi Wang almost couldn't maintain his arrogant expression and showed him madly on the spot. Is this a request that people can make?

According to this, nearly half of Dashi's annual tax revenue will be paid to Datang!Da Shi Wang strongly condemned Li Xian's inhumane approach.

And Li Xian has a feeling that if he is crazy and let him be crazy, I will not let go. He looks very calm, very calm, and also very... irritating.

Li Xian could see now that Datang had no shortage of tributes from Dashi. Of course, no one would dislike a lot of money, but this kind of tribute itself was more about suppressing Dashi's strength.

Without money, he can't raise too many soldiers, and he can't invest more in researching the reform of weapons. Less money will have an impact on all aspects of society, and may even cause various hidden dangers to appear inside Dashi. This is the best way to suppress opponents. In a good way, as for the land, Li Xian didn't occupy too much this time, and died far away. If it's a peaceful time, he doesn't mind getting a little more.

But now his manpower is limited, this time Lou Shide did not bring too many soldiers and horses, most of them were conscripted and dispatched local soldiers, once Wu Zhao sent people to stop the traffic arteries from Chang'an to the four Anxi town , then Li Xian and the others completely lost their control over this place.

But Dashi Wang would rather give him some land, because many of his apprentices here are in the Gobi desert, and even city taxes and the like can't be paid much, and it's not so unbearable to cede land.

But the other party only wants things and money, which makes Dashi Wang a little uncomfortable. This must be discussed. He means to give land, but the amount of tribute must be reduced.

Li Xian insisted on this bottom line, and told the diplomats who had negotiated in the past and knew the Chinese language: "I will not back down a single step. You can express this meaning to them. Don't say anything that is ambiguous. Trust me, you will definitely I don't want Datang to lose his interests."

The reason why Li Xian threatened this person was mainly because of this person... In fact, he was originally from Wu Chengsi's side, but he was always used as a nail in Chang'an. Leak some news, of course, these news must be... fake news.

In the end, when it was time to come to negotiate, Li Xian found out...it was broken. I forgot about this kind of thing before, and the talents are all in Luoyang. On his side...no one understands Dashiyu, of course Zheng Qi does, but Zheng Qi He can't leave, he doesn't have enough time in the current church, and after searching for a long time, he finds out that this person actually understands, so it's him.

As for whether this person will make trouble, anyway, he will let Zheng Qi check in the end. If something goes wrong, at most they will lose a little money, but this guy will lose his life.

The man trembled after hearing this, very suspicious that his identity had been exposed, but if it was true that the regent would let him come?

Although this person is from Wu Chengsi's side, but the internal fighting is the internal fighting. When facing foreign enemies, this person is still a bit virtuous. Standing still is the sentence: "I won't make any more concessions."

For a while, it was obviously a very serious negotiation scene between the two countries, and it felt like a vegetable market. The two sides were bargaining... To be precise, the bargaining on the other side was very lively. Except for Li Xian and Lou Shide, the rest of us The guards stared at each other fiercely with cold faces, well, the regent said, we want to show our momentum.

When it came to the end, when both sides were a little tired, Da Shi Wang suddenly said bluntly: "Are you guys not wanting to talk about peace?"

Although Datang won, they were definitely not a disastrous defeat in the eyes of the Dashi King, but the hot air balloon appeared too strangely, and they were not prepared.

Li Xian raised his eyelids and looked at him, suddenly smiled and said, "Of course, that's why we put forward the conditions. You can choose to agree or not."

Da Shi Wang frowned: "Oh? What if we disagree?"

Li Xian put the small silver fork he was playing with on the plate and said casually: "Then continue to hit."

The Crown Prince of Dashi endured it to the extreme and couldn't help it, so he said: "Aren't you afraid that we will really do it?"

Li Xian's answer was to stand up, pull out his saber, slap it on the table, bend down and say, "If you want to fight, then fight!"

The corner of Lou Shide's mouth twitched and he lowered his head. He couldn't help but educate the regent of the Tang Dynasty in public. This is not good...not good.

Da Shi Wang looked at Li Xian in horror, this is a lunatic, a complete lunatic!They didn't have much contact with Li Xian, but they had never heard of such a powerful prince in the Tang Dynasty. Could it be that the information was wrong?

Yes, of course Li Xian was not strong in the past. If he dared to be strong, he would not be able to live today. In fact, he is not particularly strong in Chang'an now, but he can't be cowardly in front of these defeated crooked nuts. ah.

However, Li Xian was sure that the King of Dashi did not dare to continue fighting, because he found out about the colonies occupied by Dashi in the South Asian subcontinent.

Compared with fighting for territory with Datang, over there is actually the main battlefield of Dashi. The Dashi King didn't sign it until the end of the day. He was just trying to drag the word.

But how could Li Xian not see it?When he left, he set a time limit for Da Shi Wang, which was three days.If you still don't get a reply after three days, I'm sorry dear.

In the end, the Dashi King could only sign the unequal treaty aggrieved. When he saw this document, Li Xian was in a very happy mood. He suddenly understood the pleasure of those warlords fighting the world. Seeing a very It is a very pleasant thing that a strong enemy has to bow its head#I just like the way you can't understand me and can't beat me#

Li Xian embarked on the journey back to Chang'an with the documents with huge benefits, he even brought Lou Shide back, while Anxi still handed over to Jiu Bin.Jiu Bin gratefully assured Li Xian that he would be optimistic about this place. Before he left, Li Xian left some money and materials as pensions, and repeatedly emphasized that orphans must be treated well.

But he really can't do too much here, after all, his base camp is still in Chang'an, if Wu Zhao sends someone to stop him here and beat him up, it will be a big trouble.

It's just that Wu Zhao's goal has always been Chang'an City. The symbolic meaning of Chang'an City is so great that it almost becomes her heart disease. Li Xian is dead, isn't Zheng Qi still alive?Isn't Lou Shide still alive?Isn't the little emperor still alive?The death of a person may cause a certain blow to that side, but it cannot defeat them.

After becoming the emperor, Wu Zhao's way of thinking has also gradually changed. In the past, she had no choice but to resort to intrigue and trickery, because she had no way to confront those courtiers head-on, so she could only start from some small places.

Now her style is gradually becoming upright, and the biggest feature is that Wu Zhao directly sent people to attack Chang'an City.

Yes, although Zhang Renyuan suffered a loss before, it does not mean that they gave up. What's more, Chang'an City is not surrounded by water. Well, the maneuverability of a hot air balloon...it has no mobility at all!It is easier to disperse the army in this way.

Wu Zhao had a lot of people, so he was able to divide the troops. After Li Xian knew about this, he sneered and threw the documents aside, and began to wonder if the watchtower had been built.

Yes, before he came out, Zheng Qi had already started planning the archery building, mainly to expand the outer city outside Chang'an, Li Xian called it Yihuan ==

This is mainly for defense. When Li Xian left, he had already agreed to various approvals, so he was just waiting to start. According to the amount of work in Chang'an, it is estimated that the construction will be almost done when Wu Zhao's troops come over?

Zheng Qi had known for a long time that Wu Zhao would not continue to wait and see after the fight between Datang and Dashi. She would definitely make a move immediately, so the first thing he built was the archery tower, and the rest of the city wall was built first. Not very high, but able to withstand a bit.

Luoyang naturally knew about the construction of the outer city in Chang'an, but no one cared about it. Zhang Renyuan still led the army, but because he was defeated and demoted before, the general manager this time was another person——Wang Xiaojie!

The two of them also discussed it, and both felt that the outer city of Chang'an should not be difficult to attack. After all, the time is short, and it probably hasn't been completed yet. If they go faster, they may be able to destroy the unfinished outer city of Chang'an.

Regarding the thoughts of these two people, Li Xian gave Zheng Qi an idea shamelessly, and then sent someone to send it to Chang'an quickly.

So when Wang Xiaojie and Zhang Renyuan came over, they saw a row of hot air balloons tethered to the walls of the outer city of Chang'an, all in various colors.

The author has something to say:

I think the summary of this chapter is probably, Little Dragon King: I didn’t make the tiger crouching cannon and hot air balloon to reason with you! →＿→
