President of Datang [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 178
After Li Chu saw the news, he subconsciously looked at Li Tan's reaction, but he saw Li Tan's calm face, as if he was not in a hurry.
He couldn't help asking, "Aren't you worried?"
Li Tan was a little surprised: "What are you worried about?"
Li Chu said: "Tibetan is coming fiercely, and it is said that it has received the help of the Abbasid Dynasty. Shatuo may not be Tubo's opponent."
Li Tan said contemptuously: "It's just Tubo, what is it?"
Li Chu didn't know how to describe his mood for a moment. If someone else said this in front of him, he would probably not look at the other person even if he took another look. People who can only brag have no real ability.
However, if it were Li Tan's words... Thinking about the combination of still working for Datang and marrying a princess, he would not dare to laugh at Li Tan's big talk.
So he just said: "If you don't take Tubo seriously, Zhu Xieli may not be his opponent."
Li Tan looked at Li Chu seriously and said: "You underestimate Zhu Xieli, Tubo is no match for him, and he will lose miserably."
Li Chu still didn't believe it, Li Tan saw his expression and asked, "Do you want to make a bet?"
Li Chu asked: "How to bet?"
Li Tan said: "If Zhu Xieli wins within a month, I will win. Otherwise, what if I lose?"
One month... Li Chu said decisively: "Then you are doomed."
If Tubo was so easy to fight, Turkic would not be reduced to what it is now. If Li Tan said that Zhu Xieli would definitely win, he would still weigh it, a miserable victory is also a victory.
However, Li Tan talked about one month, which is too confident. If he really wins in one month, it will not delay Shatuo's New Year's Eve!
No matter how you think about it, it seems impossible.
Li Tan shrugged: "That's not necessarily the case."
Li Chu suddenly asked: "What is the bet?"
Li Tan tilted his head and thought about it seriously, then suddenly smiled and said: "I really don't know what can be a bet, why not just bet on a generational friendship."
Li Chu was a little surprised: "What do you mean?"
"If I win, then within 50 years, neither Datang nor Shatuo will take the initiative to attack each other, how about it?"
After hearing this, Li Chu laughed and said, "This bet...I really hope you win now."
It is Datang who needs to recuperate most now. As a descendant of nomadic people, Shatuo's current development method is very similar to that of Datang. Li Chu guessed that Li Tan must have made great efforts in this.
Otherwise... These ethnic groups like to support wars by fighting, and they are flexible in fighting, and they run back to the grassland after they are finished. How can it be so easy to find such a large area?
Even if they find it, the grassland is their home field, and it's hard to say who wins or loses.
So Li Tan's bet is more like getting rid of a heartache for Datang.
Li Tan smiled: "If it weren't for the dishonesty of Turks and Tubo, Shatuo would not want to fight again."
Li Chu was silent for a while and said: "You only talked about your bet, then I will talk about mine. If I win...you can come back."
Li Tan was a little helpless: "What I say doesn't count."
Li Chu raised his eyebrows: "It doesn't matter what you say, so no one can have the final say."
Now Li Chu can see that Li Tan has a lot of power to speak in Shatuo, otherwise it would be impossible to come back and stay for such a long time.
What's more, he also knew something about the Weiming Academy, and he was able to build a city specially for him. Although Shatuo also benefited,... Anyway, if he changed to Datang, Li Chu might not have the courage.
Li Tan was not annoyed when he was punctured, and said simply: "Okay, I will come back if I lose."
Li Chu smiled triumphantly: "Then I'm going to get someone to renovate your palace. Hey, you're not in Chang'an. Every time I want to repair it, I'm stopped, especially Yushitai. I have to come here every time." The pile of memorials told me not to be extravagant, where is this extravagant?"
Li Tan said very objectively: "I don't live in Chang'an for a long time, and I come back at most once a year. They are doing this for your own good. I also want to change to a smaller palace. Such a big palace, you will reward the heroes later, or demolish it. You can give it to the minister."
Li Chu immediately said: "That won't work, you have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty anyway, how can you not even keep the palace?"
Li Tan originally wanted to persuade him, but seeing Li Chu's resoluteness, he didn't say anything.
Anyway, as time goes by, one day Li Chu will change his mind.
Somehow, the bet between Li Tan and Li Chu got out, so Li Tan was surrounded everywhere he went and asked him if he planned to leave this time.
Li Tan was a bit dumbfounded, and thought that if Zhu Xieli couldn't beat Tubo within a month, then he would go back and kill Zhu Xieli first!
Also because of this bet, the gentlemen who had previously said that they would go with Li Tan began to wait and see.
Yan Gaoqing even ran over and asked in person: "Your Highness really intends to stay in Datang? Then... what about the Academy? Can Shatuo give us the Academy?"
Yan Gaoqing was lucky enough to have seen the aerial view of the academy, and even saw a part of the design of the academy. After seeing the Tongtian Tower and hearing that the Tongtian Tower soars into the clouds, standing on the highest floor is like walking on the clouds, I can't help but yearn for it.
This time, he also planned to go to Shatuo with Li Tan.
Originally, Li Tan was still a little worried. He did focus on the academy, but the only two academies in Datang were also his painstaking efforts. He hoped that the academies would become better and better, so as to send blood to the academy.
However, Yan Gaoqing said that he had already found a successor, and he went to the academy not to teach or something, but to continue studying.
And his cousin Yan Zhenqing's family is also there. The Yan family is miserable and a loyal family. Now he and Yan Zhenqing are left to support each other. Although the family can live in several places these days, Li Tan thought about it and let them A family reunion is better.
The most important thing is that both Yan Gaoqing and Yan Zhenqing have helped him a lot, and he is willing to let the children of the Yan family win at the starting line.
Li Tan looked at Yan Gaoqing dumbfounded and said: "Mr. Xin, I dare not say anything else. When did you see me lose in war? Although I didn't personally lead the troops this time, my vision is still there, and I I didn’t do nothing during this time in Shatuo.”
As soon as Yan Gaoqing heard it, she knew that Li Tan was really sure, so she turned her head and went back to tell her disciples that all of them should go back to study honestly, and if they failed the exam, they would be expelled from the gate!
What?Chinese New Year?The exam is before the Chinese New Year. After the exam, there is still time to celebrate the New Year, and if you pass the exam, it is the New Year. If you fail the exam...then...
Yan Gaoqing's attitude unintentionally influenced many people, and made people in the court who originally thought that Li Tan was doomed to lose a little bit at this moment—could it be that King Shatuo really has that ability?
Facts have proved that Zhu Xieli does have the ability to drive Tubo away.
Li Chu received a message from Shanzhou again, and the moment he saw the message, he felt as if he had been hurt a ton.
Zhu Xieli not only won, but also won very beautifully. Li Tan bet for a month, and he defeated Tubo in only 20 days.
This victory is not limited to defending the city. He directly beat Tubo all the way back to the south of Kunlun Mountain, and directly drove Tubo back.
Li Chu couldn't believe his eyes, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that this kind of thing should not have happened.
It's fine if you win, drive Tubo back... This... unless Zhu Xieli led people to chase Tubo all the way, and Tubo didn't have the heart to resist from the beginning to the end, and ran all the way back to his home, this can be done in such a way. produces such results in a short period of time.
But that is Tubo, not to mention that the military strength is almost twice that of Shatuo, how did they do it?
With such doubts, Li Chu's first reaction was to invite Li Tan to the palace.
Li Tan knew the outcome of the battle a long time ago. After learning about the start of the war, he sent Zhiyi to Zhu Xieli. What Zhiyi got was first-hand information. Shanzhou still had to waste time inquiring. In terms of speed, Because it is a war in another country, it is impossible to send [-] miles to rush, so it is even slower.
When Li Chu knew about this matter, Li Tan even sent a letter to Zhu Xieli.
So when Li Chu talked about it, Li Tan said very calmly: "Normally, if he didn't have such ability, how could An Lushan value him?"
It was only then that Li Chu remembered that there was still this problem, and he was curious, so he asked, "How did you do it?"
Li Tan looked at him speechlessly: "I'm not in Shatuo either, how do I know?"
He really didn't know that the dry powder fire extinguisher can only make the threat of fierce fire oil less serious, and put Tubo and Shatuo at the same level in terms of equipment.
The rest depends half on the generals and half on God's will.
He was also very curious about how Zhu Xieli operated. Originally, he thought that 30 days would be enough, but the time was shortened by half all of a sudden. I don't know if he was in danger or injured?
Li Tan was very worried all of a sudden, wishing he could fly back with his wings.
However, at this time Li Longji's anniversary has not yet passed.
Li Tan decided to leave after the new year. As for Li Heng's anniversary, if Zhu Xieli hadn't fought a battle in the ice and snow, he might still want to celebrate his anniversary.
Now, I'm sorry, I don't want to give him this face anymore, he wants to go back and see if his big cat is okay.
Before Zhiyi only reported good news but not bad news, Li Tan asked for a long time but didn't find anything. He always felt uneasy.
Although Li Chu didn't know the specific process, this answer was enough. At the same time, he was very thankful that Li Tan was really thinking about Datang in his heart.
As far as Sha Tuo's combat power is concerned, few people in the current Tang Dynasty can stand up to it. Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi can do it, but these two are already very old, and it is hard to say how long they can last.
Thinking of this, Li Chu couldn't help but want to cut Li Heng's sacrificial ceremony. If it wasn't for him, King Jianning would still be alive now. It is the second most gifted of the new generation.
The most recognized talent is... Li Tan.
Then this one was sent out by Li Heng himself.
Li Chu was really getting angrier the more he thought about it, but it's a pity that this person is his father, so even if he cut the salary, he could only come here secretly.
But in any case, this friendly agreement was signed.
After signing this agreement, it will be the anniversary of Li Longji, and then the New Year.
On New Year's Eve, Li Chu hosted a banquet, and the Daming Palace was full of lights, which made him return to the time when he first celebrated the New Year in the Tang Dynasty.
The only difference is that today's New Year's banquet is much more shabby than it was back then.
After the formal process was over, the people in the room began to let loose.
After Li Tan had a friendly interaction with a group of people holding a wine glass, he found a quiet place to stay quietly.
If he wanted to be quiet on such occasions before, it would be a dream. Everyone around him wanted to have a relationship with him, and everyone wanted him to say something nice in front of Li Longji.
Now everyone knows that after the new year, Li Tan will leave, why waste that feeling?
And his friends have a lot of opportunities to get together with him, and there is no need to get together now.
So Li Tan was able to be quiet for a while.
As a result, before his side was clean for a long time, Li Chu also came down there with a flagon.
Li Tan belongs to which no one comes to look for, and Li Chu belongs to which no one dares to look for.
Li Chu picked up the jug and filled his glass and asked, "You really don't plan to leave after the fifteenth day?"
Li Tan smiled: "Zhu Xieli doesn't know about that agreement yet, I have to go back and inform him first."
Li Chu didn't speak, he didn't need to think about it to know that this was Li Tan's excuse.
He took a sip of his wine and said, "Isn't it boring to hide here alone?"
Li Tan shook his head: "It's good to be quiet once in a while."
Li Chu said with emotion: "Who says it's not? But when you want to be lively, it's still prosperous in Chang'an, right?"
Li Tan was helpless, ever since he came back, Li Chu wanted to do ideological work for him every now and then, and he never tires of it.
He said directly: "If you have a chance, you can go to Bei'an, and you will know where the bustling place is."
Li Chu raised his eyebrows: "So confident?"
Li Tan put the cup aside, walked slowly out of the palace with his hands behind his back, and said, "You know, I made the electric lights, and I also built Bei'an. In terms of bright lights, Chang'an is really not as good as that." Over there, Nan'an will look better in the future."
Li Chu stood behind and watched Li Tan's figure flickering in and out of the light, sighed and said, "If you are like this, I am even more reluctant to let you go."
After hearing this, Li Tan waved his hands and said, "Don't think about it, the current Tang Dynasty has no money to do such a thing."
Li Chu suddenly asked loudly: "Is the proposal of the United Empire you mentioned earlier still count?"
Li Tan's footsteps stopped, and his already a little drunk mind suddenly cleared up a lot. He turned his head to look at Li Chu and smiled and said, "Of course."
Li Chu didn't ask him if he could make the decision, he just nodded and said, "Okay."
He didn't say anything more, but Li Tan knew that since he asked again, it meant that this matter might have to be put on the agenda.
After returning to the palace, he felt a little emotional. Sure enough, strength is the only criterion. In the past, they felt that Sha Tuo was not strong enough, so naturally they would not be willing to be equal to Sha Tuo. Now they find that Sha Tuo’s combat effectiveness is very strong. Of course, it is better to be an ally than an enemy much.
After the New Year, Li Tan took more than 50 gentlemen on the road back to Shatuo.
Fifty people sounds like a lot, but in fact it is still not very conspicuous in the academy, because the academy is really too big.
Li Tan reckoned that the academy would not be able to fill up the school for at least three or four years.
Before leaving, Li Tan personally wrote a letter to Beimang Academy and Langhuan Academy, promising that the two academies would have a certain number of places every year to allow students to enter without examination.
Of course, the waiver of the test is just to waive the entrance test. When the result of the first semester test comes out, if the student fails, the student will be returned.
So he repeatedly emphasized in the letter that the assessment must be strict, otherwise the Academy would not save face for anyone.
Li Tan wanted to use such a policy to make the Academy's status more established invisibly.
When he returned to Shatuo, there were only five days before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Zhu Xieli came out with Gongsun Chui and others from a distance. Li Tan glanced and found that there was no He Zhizhang in the team. After thinking about it, Zhiyi hadn't brought him bad news in the past two days. The old man came out to suffer in such a cold day.
After Zhu Xieli saw Li Tan's guard of honor from a distance, he got out of his own guard of honor, mounted his horse and ran over, and got into Li Tan's guard of honor.
The people who followed Li Tan were dumbfounded.
And Li Tan was used to Zhu Xieli's undisguised behavior in Shatuo, so he looked at him carefully for a long time before asking, "No injury?"
Zhu Xieli put his hands on his waist and asked, "Shall I check it out for you?"
Li Tan immediately said: "Let's talk when we go back!"
Zhu Xieli's royal attire is no less complicated than the dragon robe, and now there are only the two of them in the car, Li Tan has no confidence to help him put on the royal attire.
When they turned around and went out, everyone found that Zhu Xieli's clothes were neat when he got into the car, but messy when he got off the car.
Zhu Xieli blinked and said, "Okay, I'll show you when I get back."
Li Tan always felt that he meant something, but when he thought that the two of them had been separated for nearly a month, he couldn't help but feel his chrysanthemum tighten up. After calculating the time, he found that Sha Tuo was on holiday from top to bottom.
For a moment, Li Tan secretly hated himself for taking such a long vacation!
Zhu Xieli leaned over to hug him, buried his head in his shoulder, took a deep breath and said, "Finally back."
Li Tan hugged him back and said, "From now on, I will go there every year to pay homage to Father, and I won't stay there for the New Year."
Zhu Xieli shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'll go with you later."
Li Tan didn't speak, anyway, Zhu Xieli just had a whim, he wanted to do this, and the people below couldn't let him do it.
If there are no problems, Shatuo and Datang will basically be able to sit on an equal footing in the future. In this way, except for diplomatic visits, they must be in their respective countries during the Chinese New Year.
Zhu Xieli seemed to be talking casually, and quickly changed the subject and said: "It's just right, let's work overtime when we come back, and see where else on the grassland is suitable for building a city."
Li Tan asked: "How is the situation now? I only know that you won. How is the Turkic side?"
Zhu Xieli said calmly: "Turk? It can be said that there is no more, at least the Turk Khanate is gone, and now only Huihe is left among those tribes. Ge Luolu and Baximi were uprooted by Tubo. There is no chance to resist."
Li Tan was a little shocked: "What? Genocide?"
Zhu Xieli thought for a while and said: "Strictly speaking, it is not an extermination of the clan. After all, Jiedi Yishi is still alive and has bowed his head to Sha Tuo. Now it is not easy to deal with it, but he doesn't care, he can't live anyway. How long ago, Usumish has been killed by my own hands, oh, you may not know, the people sent by Tubo this time, the people who colluded with Usumish back then, were also killed by me."
After hearing this, Li Tan realized why Zhu Xieli beat Tubo back in just fifteen days, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.
It turned out that he had seen the enemy, and he guessed that if it weren't for the insurmountable Kunlun Mountains, Zhu Xieli might directly destroy Tubo.
Of course that is too difficult, Zhu Xieli should not be so impulsive.
This time Turkic was able to win because Turkic was beaten to death by Tubo before, and Zhu Xieli went out to pick up the bargain.
He patted Zhu Xieli's head and said, "This can be regarded as a comfort to your father and the spirit of the clan, but how did you drive them away in such a short period of time?"
Zhu Xieli's eyes lit up and said: "Menghuo oil, Tubo used Menghuo oil at the beginning, but found that the flame of Menghuo oil was very small in winter, and the dry powder fire extinguisher was better than our previous experiment. Later, Tubo found that Menghuo oil was useless, so it was It’s no longer used, so I sent someone to steal a part of the fire oil, and then sent it to your research institute. Those people made a kind of spray when they were idle and bored, but it’s a pity that the spray was only made. If you can use it two or three times, you can't use it, otherwise..."
Li Tan couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this, he didn't expect these people to start to evolve.
It's just that the technology needed for spraying is not something that can be researched casually now, and I don't know what these people have researched?
While Li Tan was planning to visit after the new year, he looked at the map with Zhu Xieli, and found that after taking Tubo, Shatuo's territory had almost quadrupled in size.
He calculated that according to the maps of later generations, the territory included part of Siberia, and Lake Baikal also became the territory of Shatuo.
He also understood why Zhu Xieli didn't kill all the Turkic people directly. On the one hand, it was against the harmony of heaven. Such a large territory... also needs people.
Even if those Turkic people are beaten into slaves, it can be used.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Tan turned to look at Zhu Xieli and asked, "Isn't Bei'an too far to the south with this land area?"
Zhu Xieli said decisively: "Don't change it, it will be too cold to go further north, the weather is not good, so let's do it."
Li Tan thinks about it too, Bei'an's geographical location is already relatively north, but the climate is not bad, and it is really difficult to wait for winter in the north.
Because of this, Li Tan said frankly: "Although the land is large, there are not many places suitable for people to live in. Let's study it later."
Zhu Xieli responded, turned around and found that he had returned to Nan'an's palace, and said, "Go, I have prepared a surprise for you."
The author has something to say: I overestimated myself, thinking that this chapter can be finished, but at most it will not exceed two chapters, of course there will be some follow-up episodes XD

Thanks to the two cute nutrient solutions =3=
He couldn't help asking, "Aren't you worried?"
Li Tan was a little surprised: "What are you worried about?"
Li Chu said: "Tibetan is coming fiercely, and it is said that it has received the help of the Abbasid Dynasty. Shatuo may not be Tubo's opponent."
Li Tan said contemptuously: "It's just Tubo, what is it?"
Li Chu didn't know how to describe his mood for a moment. If someone else said this in front of him, he would probably not look at the other person even if he took another look. People who can only brag have no real ability.
However, if it were Li Tan's words... Thinking about the combination of still working for Datang and marrying a princess, he would not dare to laugh at Li Tan's big talk.
So he just said: "If you don't take Tubo seriously, Zhu Xieli may not be his opponent."
Li Tan looked at Li Chu seriously and said: "You underestimate Zhu Xieli, Tubo is no match for him, and he will lose miserably."
Li Chu still didn't believe it, Li Tan saw his expression and asked, "Do you want to make a bet?"
Li Chu asked: "How to bet?"
Li Tan said: "If Zhu Xieli wins within a month, I will win. Otherwise, what if I lose?"
One month... Li Chu said decisively: "Then you are doomed."
If Tubo was so easy to fight, Turkic would not be reduced to what it is now. If Li Tan said that Zhu Xieli would definitely win, he would still weigh it, a miserable victory is also a victory.
However, Li Tan talked about one month, which is too confident. If he really wins in one month, it will not delay Shatuo's New Year's Eve!
No matter how you think about it, it seems impossible.
Li Tan shrugged: "That's not necessarily the case."
Li Chu suddenly asked: "What is the bet?"
Li Tan tilted his head and thought about it seriously, then suddenly smiled and said: "I really don't know what can be a bet, why not just bet on a generational friendship."
Li Chu was a little surprised: "What do you mean?"
"If I win, then within 50 years, neither Datang nor Shatuo will take the initiative to attack each other, how about it?"
After hearing this, Li Chu laughed and said, "This bet...I really hope you win now."
It is Datang who needs to recuperate most now. As a descendant of nomadic people, Shatuo's current development method is very similar to that of Datang. Li Chu guessed that Li Tan must have made great efforts in this.
Otherwise... These ethnic groups like to support wars by fighting, and they are flexible in fighting, and they run back to the grassland after they are finished. How can it be so easy to find such a large area?
Even if they find it, the grassland is their home field, and it's hard to say who wins or loses.
So Li Tan's bet is more like getting rid of a heartache for Datang.
Li Tan smiled: "If it weren't for the dishonesty of Turks and Tubo, Shatuo would not want to fight again."
Li Chu was silent for a while and said: "You only talked about your bet, then I will talk about mine. If I win...you can come back."
Li Tan was a little helpless: "What I say doesn't count."
Li Chu raised his eyebrows: "It doesn't matter what you say, so no one can have the final say."
Now Li Chu can see that Li Tan has a lot of power to speak in Shatuo, otherwise it would be impossible to come back and stay for such a long time.
What's more, he also knew something about the Weiming Academy, and he was able to build a city specially for him. Although Shatuo also benefited,... Anyway, if he changed to Datang, Li Chu might not have the courage.

Li Tan said very objectively: "I don't live in Chang'an for a long time, and I come back at most once a year. They are doing this for your own good. I also want to change to a smaller palace. Such a big palace, you will reward the heroes later, or demolish it. You can give it to the minister."
Li Chu immediately said: "That won't work, you have made great contributions to the Tang Dynasty anyway, how can you not even keep the palace?"
Li Tan originally wanted to persuade him, but seeing Li Chu's resoluteness, he didn't say anything.
Anyway, as time goes by, one day Li Chu will change his mind.
Somehow, the bet between Li Tan and Li Chu got out, so Li Tan was surrounded everywhere he went and asked him if he planned to leave this time.
Li Tan was a bit dumbfounded, and thought that if Zhu Xieli couldn't beat Tubo within a month, then he would go back and kill Zhu Xieli first!
Also because of this bet, the gentlemen who had previously said that they would go with Li Tan began to wait and see.
Yan Gaoqing even ran over and asked in person: "Your Highness really intends to stay in Datang? Then... what about the Academy? Can Shatuo give us the Academy?"
Yan Gaoqing was lucky enough to have seen the aerial view of the academy, and even saw a part of the design of the academy. After seeing the Tongtian Tower and hearing that the Tongtian Tower soars into the clouds, standing on the highest floor is like walking on the clouds, I can't help but yearn for it.
This time, he also planned to go to Shatuo with Li Tan.
Originally, Li Tan was still a little worried. He did focus on the academy, but the only two academies in Datang were also his painstaking efforts. He hoped that the academies would become better and better, so as to send blood to the academy.
However, Yan Gaoqing said that he had already found a successor, and he went to the academy not to teach or something, but to continue studying.
And his cousin Yan Zhenqing's family is also there. The Yan family is miserable and a loyal family. Now he and Yan Zhenqing are left to support each other. Although the family can live in several places these days, Li Tan thought about it and let them A family reunion is better.
The most important thing is that both Yan Gaoqing and Yan Zhenqing have helped him a lot, and he is willing to let the children of the Yan family win at the starting line.
Li Tan looked at Yan Gaoqing dumbfounded and said: "Mr. Xin, I dare not say anything else. When did you see me lose in war? Although I didn't personally lead the troops this time, my vision is still there, and I I didn’t do nothing during this time in Shatuo.”
As soon as Yan Gaoqing heard it, she knew that Li Tan was really sure, so she turned her head and went back to tell her disciples that all of them should go back to study honestly, and if they failed the exam, they would be expelled from the gate!
What?Chinese New Year?The exam is before the Chinese New Year. After the exam, there is still time to celebrate the New Year, and if you pass the exam, it is the New Year. If you fail the exam...then...

But that is Tubo, not to mention that the military strength is almost twice that of Shatuo, how did they do it?

Now, I'm sorry, I don't want to give him this face anymore, he wants to go back and see if his big cat is okay.
Before Zhiyi only reported good news but not bad news, Li Tan asked for a long time but didn't find anything. He always felt uneasy.
Although Li Chu didn't know the specific process, this answer was enough. At the same time, he was very thankful that Li Tan was really thinking about Datang in his heart.
As far as Sha Tuo's combat power is concerned, few people in the current Tang Dynasty can stand up to it. Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi can do it, but these two are already very old, and it is hard to say how long they can last.
Thinking of this, Li Chu couldn't help but want to cut Li Heng's sacrificial ceremony. If it wasn't for him, King Jianning would still be alive now. It is the second most gifted of the new generation.
The most recognized talent is... Li Tan.
Then this one was sent out by Li Heng himself.
Li Chu was really getting angrier the more he thought about it, but it's a pity that this person is his father, so even if he cut the salary, he could only come here secretly.
But in any case, this friendly agreement was signed.
After signing this agreement, it will be the anniversary of Li Longji, and then the New Year.
On New Year's Eve, Li Chu hosted a banquet, and the Daming Palace was full of lights, which made him return to the time when he first celebrated the New Year in the Tang Dynasty.
The only difference is that today's New Year's banquet is much more shabby than it was back then.
After the formal process was over, the people in the room began to let loose.
After Li Tan had a friendly interaction with a group of people holding a wine glass, he found a quiet place to stay quietly.
If he wanted to be quiet on such occasions before, it would be a dream. Everyone around him wanted to have a relationship with him, and everyone wanted him to say something nice in front of Li Longji.
Now everyone knows that after the new year, Li Tan will leave, why waste that feeling?
And his friends have a lot of opportunities to get together with him, and there is no need to get together now.
So Li Tan was able to be quiet for a while.
As a result, before his side was clean for a long time, Li Chu also came down there with a flagon.
Li Tan belongs to which no one comes to look for, and Li Chu belongs to which no one dares to look for.
Li Chu picked up the jug and filled his glass and asked, "You really don't plan to leave after the fifteenth day?"
Li Tan smiled: "Zhu Xieli doesn't know about that agreement yet, I have to go back and inform him first."
Li Chu didn't speak, he didn't need to think about it to know that this was Li Tan's excuse.
He took a sip of his wine and said, "Isn't it boring to hide here alone?"
Li Tan shook his head: "It's good to be quiet once in a while."
Li Chu said with emotion: "Who says it's not? But when you want to be lively, it's still prosperous in Chang'an, right?"
Li Tan was helpless, ever since he came back, Li Chu wanted to do ideological work for him every now and then, and he never tires of it.
He said directly: "If you have a chance, you can go to Bei'an, and you will know where the bustling place is."
Li Chu raised his eyebrows: "So confident?"
Li Tan put the cup aside, walked slowly out of the palace with his hands behind his back, and said, "You know, I made the electric lights, and I also built Bei'an. In terms of bright lights, Chang'an is really not as good as that." Over there, Nan'an will look better in the future."
Li Chu stood behind and watched Li Tan's figure flickering in and out of the light, sighed and said, "If you are like this, I am even more reluctant to let you go."
After hearing this, Li Tan waved his hands and said, "Don't think about it, the current Tang Dynasty has no money to do such a thing."
Li Chu suddenly asked loudly: "Is the proposal of the United Empire you mentioned earlier still count?"
Li Tan's footsteps stopped, and his already a little drunk mind suddenly cleared up a lot. He turned his head to look at Li Chu and smiled and said, "Of course."
Li Chu didn't ask him if he could make the decision, he just nodded and said, "Okay."
He didn't say anything more, but Li Tan knew that since he asked again, it meant that this matter might have to be put on the agenda.
After returning to the palace, he felt a little emotional. Sure enough, strength is the only criterion. In the past, they felt that Sha Tuo was not strong enough, so naturally they would not be willing to be equal to Sha Tuo. Now they find that Sha Tuo’s combat effectiveness is very strong. Of course, it is better to be an ally than an enemy much.
After the New Year, Li Tan took more than 50 gentlemen on the road back to Shatuo.
Fifty people sounds like a lot, but in fact it is still not very conspicuous in the academy, because the academy is really too big.
Li Tan reckoned that the academy would not be able to fill up the school for at least three or four years.
Before leaving, Li Tan personally wrote a letter to Beimang Academy and Langhuan Academy, promising that the two academies would have a certain number of places every year to allow students to enter without examination.
Of course, the waiver of the test is just to waive the entrance test. When the result of the first semester test comes out, if the student fails, the student will be returned.
So he repeatedly emphasized in the letter that the assessment must be strict, otherwise the Academy would not save face for anyone.
Li Tan wanted to use such a policy to make the Academy's status more established invisibly.
When he returned to Shatuo, there were only five days before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Zhu Xieli came out with Gongsun Chui and others from a distance. Li Tan glanced and found that there was no He Zhizhang in the team. After thinking about it, Zhiyi hadn't brought him bad news in the past two days. The old man came out to suffer in such a cold day.
After Zhu Xieli saw Li Tan's guard of honor from a distance, he got out of his own guard of honor, mounted his horse and ran over, and got into Li Tan's guard of honor.
The people who followed Li Tan were dumbfounded.
And Li Tan was used to Zhu Xieli's undisguised behavior in Shatuo, so he looked at him carefully for a long time before asking, "No injury?"
Zhu Xieli put his hands on his waist and asked, "Shall I check it out for you?"
Li Tan immediately said: "Let's talk when we go back!"
Zhu Xieli's royal attire is no less complicated than the dragon robe, and now there are only the two of them in the car, Li Tan has no confidence to help him put on the royal attire.
When they turned around and went out, everyone found that Zhu Xieli's clothes were neat when he got into the car, but messy when he got off the car.
Zhu Xieli blinked and said, "Okay, I'll show you when I get back."
Li Tan always felt that he meant something, but when he thought that the two of them had been separated for nearly a month, he couldn't help but feel his chrysanthemum tighten up. After calculating the time, he found that Sha Tuo was on holiday from top to bottom.
For a moment, Li Tan secretly hated himself for taking such a long vacation!
Zhu Xieli leaned over to hug him, buried his head in his shoulder, took a deep breath and said, "Finally back."
Li Tan hugged him back and said, "From now on, I will go there every year to pay homage to Father, and I won't stay there for the New Year."
Zhu Xieli shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'll go with you later."
Li Tan didn't speak, anyway, Zhu Xieli just had a whim, he wanted to do this, and the people below couldn't let him do it.
If there are no problems, Shatuo and Datang will basically be able to sit on an equal footing in the future. In this way, except for diplomatic visits, they must be in their respective countries during the Chinese New Year.
Zhu Xieli seemed to be talking casually, and quickly changed the subject and said: "It's just right, let's work overtime when we come back, and see where else on the grassland is suitable for building a city."
Li Tan asked: "How is the situation now? I only know that you won. How is the Turkic side?"
Zhu Xieli said calmly: "Turk? It can be said that there is no more, at least the Turk Khanate is gone, and now only Huihe is left among those tribes. Ge Luolu and Baximi were uprooted by Tubo. There is no chance to resist."
Li Tan was a little shocked: "What? Genocide?"
Zhu Xieli thought for a while and said: "Strictly speaking, it is not an extermination of the clan. After all, Jiedi Yishi is still alive and has bowed his head to Sha Tuo. Now it is not easy to deal with it, but he doesn't care, he can't live anyway. How long ago, Usumish has been killed by my own hands, oh, you may not know, the people sent by Tubo this time, the people who colluded with Usumish back then, were also killed by me."
After hearing this, Li Tan realized why Zhu Xieli beat Tubo back in just fifteen days, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.
It turned out that he had seen the enemy, and he guessed that if it weren't for the insurmountable Kunlun Mountains, Zhu Xieli might directly destroy Tubo.
Of course that is too difficult, Zhu Xieli should not be so impulsive.
This time Turkic was able to win because Turkic was beaten to death by Tubo before, and Zhu Xieli went out to pick up the bargain.
He patted Zhu Xieli's head and said, "This can be regarded as a comfort to your father and the spirit of the clan, but how did you drive them away in such a short period of time?"
Zhu Xieli's eyes lit up and said: "Menghuo oil, Tubo used Menghuo oil at the beginning, but found that the flame of Menghuo oil was very small in winter, and the dry powder fire extinguisher was better than our previous experiment. Later, Tubo found that Menghuo oil was useless, so it was It’s no longer used, so I sent someone to steal a part of the fire oil, and then sent it to your research institute. Those people made a kind of spray when they were idle and bored, but it’s a pity that the spray was only made. If you can use it two or three times, you can't use it, otherwise..."
Li Tan couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this, he didn't expect these people to start to evolve.
It's just that the technology needed for spraying is not something that can be researched casually now, and I don't know what these people have researched?
While Li Tan was planning to visit after the new year, he looked at the map with Zhu Xieli, and found that after taking Tubo, Shatuo's territory had almost quadrupled in size.
He calculated that according to the maps of later generations, the territory included part of Siberia, and Lake Baikal also became the territory of Shatuo.
He also understood why Zhu Xieli didn't kill all the Turkic people directly. On the one hand, it was against the harmony of heaven. Such a large territory... also needs people.
Even if those Turkic people are beaten into slaves, it can be used.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Tan turned to look at Zhu Xieli and asked, "Isn't Bei'an too far to the south with this land area?"
Zhu Xieli said decisively: "Don't change it, it will be too cold to go further north, the weather is not good, so let's do it."
Li Tan thinks about it too, Bei'an's geographical location is already relatively north, but the climate is not bad, and it is really difficult to wait for winter in the north.
Because of this, Li Tan said frankly: "Although the land is large, there are not many places suitable for people to live in. Let's study it later."
Zhu Xieli responded, turned around and found that he had returned to Nan'an's palace, and said, "Go, I have prepared a surprise for you."
The author has something to say: I overestimated myself, thinking that this chapter can be finished, but at most it will not exceed two chapters, of course there will be some follow-up episodes XD
