Chapter 6880 Everyone has his own ambitions
Pratt was somewhat silent as he looked at Huang Tao who suddenly appeared not far in front of him. After all, he had been in Weiyang Palace recently and had met Huang Tao several times, but the previous meetings were completely different from the current ones.

"I encountered a Kushan warrior when I was out and killed him." After a long while, Pratt barely put together a fairly reasonable reason in his brain, coughed twice and spoke to Huang Tao.

Huang Tao was actually somewhat silent. After all, when Gu Laili killed his incarnation, he exposed his special talent structure, which was Floating Light and Leaping Gold. Therefore, Huang Tao knew who the opponent was. But when he chased after him, he saw a buddy who was not very familiar with him but also hung out in Weiyang Palace, killing Gu Laili. This was really outrageous for Huang Tao.

"That's Gu Laili, one of the few seventh-level Kushans." Huang Tao was silent for a long time, and felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere, so he spoke, explaining the other party's origin to Pratt, his brother from Northern Guizhou.

That’s right, Huang Tao really didn’t know about Pratt’s situation. He really thought that Pratt was a brother from Dayuezhi like Ji Xuan and the others. After all, he was able to enter the Weiyang Palace and his identity documents were complete. As long as Huang Tao had a normal mind, he would not have such wild thoughts.

"Killed." Pratt didn't know how to respond to this, so he could only say this.

"Forget it, let's just kill him. Come with me to collect his body. After all, he is a person. It's not good to leave his body exposed in the wild." Huang Tao sighed. He felt that Pratt was a bit cold-hearted. "Seventh-level smelting, and coming to Chang'an, there might be some conspiracy. Let someone investigate. Maybe we can destroy the Kushan plan. This is a great achievement. Maybe I can get two levels of nobility."

Pratt did not refuse when he heard this, so he followed Huang Tao to collect the body of the incarnation of Gu Laili, and then went to Jingzhao Yin to report that they had thwarted a conspiracy of the Kushans and killed Gu Laili, a top backbone of the Kushans.

Wang Yi was somewhat surprised when she received the news. After all, she knew the rumors in the upper echelons. However, the unspoken rules were still unspoken rules. Just like Zena's incarnation, if no one discovered him, as long as he didn't cause any trouble, he could stay in the Han Dynasty until the end of the grand martial arts performance, and no one would target him.

But if he was exposed by accident and was killed by someone blocking the door, then it would just be his bad luck, and there is no saying that he cannot be killed.

This is also the reason why after Jin Peng and Han Yu successfully opened the box and joined hands with Zhang Xiao to obtain Zena's incarnation, Zhang Xiao was later promoted to a higher rank, and Jin Peng and Han Yu were each rewarded - Oswald and Huangfu Song colluded privately and were somewhat lax in this matter, and the high-level Han officials were willing to go with the flow, but if you reveal yourselves, don't expect the high-level Han officials to clean up your mess!
"Pratt, the title of Fifth Officer. The body of Gu Laili will be left here first. After we identify his identity, we will promote him to a higher title according to his merits." Because Huang Tao brought him here, Pratt successfully met Jingzhao Yin Wang Yi. After receiving Gu Laili's body, Wang Yi checked Pratt's file. The reliable thing about Masinde is that he really forged an identity file.

In Masinde's words, young people must always be given a choice. Before, between the monarch and the princess, they chose the monarch, because of loyalty. Now it is a choice between the monarch and the princess. We cannot not give them a chance to choose.

In other words, I have created a file for you, made an identity certificate for you, and also transferred the credit to you from my head. If you are willing, just accept it and live as a Han Chinese forever.

Of course, if you don't want to, I will destroy the file when you leave. Next time you come, you will have to rely on yourself. This is the only time I, an old man, will help the younger generation. Since you have worked with Shivani and Arvind before, you can be considered an old friend of mine. This is only the first time.

What does it mean to be a decent person? What does it mean that even if I left Kushan, everyone in Kushan would still remember my kindness? Even though Fuward returned to Kushan with heavy losses on the way, and only two hundred of his five thousand loyal men who were truly willing to die for him were left, Fuward, thinking of Masinde, could not say a bad word about Masinde!
Even when Fu Ward, who was sitting outside the military camp basking in the sun and whose spiritual faith was almost broken, recalled Masinde's teachings in Tibet, he had to admit that Masinde had really done his best for him. It was really Fu Ward's choice to have come to this point, not Masinde's trick!

When Vasudeva I learned that Masinde had surrendered to the Han Dynasty, he could only sigh and say that he was indeed sorry for Masinde and that their fate was over. He even said something exaggerated. Even if the Kushans really counterattacked and won one day, and Vasudeva I met Masinde in the Han Dynasty, he would have to give him a good title and rank and support him with honor.

This is what it means to complete things, do them well, and do them fully.

When Pratt heard Wang Yi looking up the files and saying that he was a fifth-rank official, he was actually a little numb. He himself didn't even know that he had a title in the Han Dynasty, but he knew very well that the Jingzhao Yin, who was actually a two thousand stone official, would never say such things.

Huang Tao was obviously relieved after hearing this. Because Huang Tao was in the Weiyang Palace and had friends everywhere and a wide range of information sources, he vaguely guessed some things. Bringing Pratt to Jingzhao Yin was actually meant to verify things. The other party was a fifth-rank official, which meant that Pratt must be one of their own. At most, he had worked for Cao Cao before and came to the Han Dynasty.

Huang Tao actually has no prejudice against the soldiers on Cao Cao's side, although he is actually a native of Xuzhou, and if we really want to say that the current leader of Xuzhou is Huang Tao.

"In short, this body will stay here. We will give rewards after we identify its true identity. However, due to the complexity of this matter, you will not be able to leave Chang'an area in the near future. If you want to leave, you need to report to Jingzhao Yin. Sima Huang, as an eyewitness and a guarantor, if Pratt leaves Chang'an without reason and loses contact, you will need to arrest him." Wang Yi put away the secret mirror for verifying identity and spoke to Pratt and Huang Tao.

"No problem. I will definitely not leave until the martial arts show is over. If you want to find me recently, I will be training in Weiyang Palace." Pratt nodded and said.

"If that situation really happens, I have no problem." Huang Tao nodded. It was just a matter of capturing someone within the Han territory. As long as the authority was sufficient and Huang Tao led the team, even ordinary boundary breakers would have to surrender.

On the other side, when the incarnation of Gu Laili in Kushan was hit by Pratt, the originally sleeping Gu Laili jumped up directly.

"Fuck!" Bone Laili opened his eyes and screamed. Pratt's attack caused some damage to Bone Laili's will, and it was even transmitted directly to him. Fortunately, the damage was not too serious, and Bone Laili himself was not a vegetarian. He picked up the potion beside him and drank it. The original pain in his will quickly healed a lot.

"Pratt, you're great!" After recovering from his shock, Bone Riley recalled the last blow in which Pratt slashed with a gun blade. To be honest, even if Bone Riley's real body was there, it would be useless and he would still die. There was a clear gap between Bone Riley's awareness and Pratt's in this regard. From beginning to end, Bone Riley never thought of killing Pratt, but Pratt went straight to kill him.

Not to mention that Pratt already has one foot on the threshold of the seventh level of smelting. Even if he hasn't, Bone Lailey can't beat Pratt with this kind of fighting style.

Bone Laili sighed. He understood Pratt's choice. He was not dissatisfied with the choice itself. The only thing that made him feel terrible was that he was sent back.

"Dang, dang, dang." Just as Gu Laili was thinking about what to do next, whether to drive his real body over there, after all, the distance between Kushan and Han was there, if he used the incarnation to take the right path, he would never catch up, but if his real body went out directly, he could reach Chang'an at the latest tomorrow morning. However, before Gu Laili made up his mind, he heard someone knocking on the door.

Bone Laili was about to open the door reflexively, but suddenly realized something was wrong. Because he had to sleep and control his avatar, he was not living in the restaurant where he used to live, but in the mansion given to him by Oswin. Moreover, he was in the inner house, so where did the knock on the door come from?

Thinking of this, Gu Laili disappeared from the inner house and appeared outside the door in his innate form. Then he saw someone he absolutely should not see.

"Gumala?" Gu Laili was surprised to see someone who looked as young and handsome as he did twenty years ago.

"Masinde has something to talk to me about. I don't want to bother with him, but he has a special way to harass me. Even if I have divided my wisdom, talent, and self into three parts, he can still harass me. I can't stand being harassed this time. I need your help." Gumara turned her head to look at Gu Laili and said.

In fact, it was not a harassment. Mahinde just asked Gumara to come and play. Since he and Rangarajan were both in the Han Dynasty, he asked Gumara to go as well.

Of course, there are some calculations involved. For example, relying on Gumara's talent to create some divisions in people's hearts, making it easier for the Yuezhi to integrate with the Han Dynasty, sounds outrageous, but in fact it is just a large-scale application of Gumara's talent.

As for whether this level of application would cause Gumala to die suddenly, it would depend on Mahinde's staffing arrangements and Gumala's level of transfer.

But at least according to the discussion between Rangarajan and Mahinde, it is indeed possible to seize such seemingly completely incredible possibilities with the sudden inspiration. As for creating such possibilities, Mahinde is very capable of placing the right people in the right positions. In this way, it is like the ingredients are already gathered, but the cook is missing. Mahinde has been calling for Gumara a lot recently.

Gumara was so annoyed that he was forced to come down to earth to solve this problem with Mashind. The advantage of being a god or Buddha is that everyone can see the destiny. As for the fact that having the destiny will definitely have problems, of course, the problems will be passed on to others!

But Gumala also knew that there was a great force behind Mashind's plan, otherwise it would not have been possible. But Gumala, who had the ability to see the future, knew that if he went there, he would become a beast of burden, so he didn't want to go there at all.

In the process of fiddling with the cause and effect, Gumara found a suitable point of contact. This point can allow Masinde to stop harassing him for a short period of time. As for the future, for a wise man, he must solve the current problem first!

"Sorry, I don't have time to do it now." Gu Laili refused. If it was Mashind who asked him to do something, even if Mashind had joined the Han Dynasty, Gu Laili would think about it. But as for Gumara, forget it. Among the three wise men of Beigui in the last generation, Gumara was the worst. This guy would cheat everyone!

"You can go to the Han Dynasty safely." Gumara said with a smile.

"Go ahead." Gu Laili was silent for a while. He felt that his life was more important than seeing the living princess. After all, before Gumara came, he was ready to take drugs to adjust his condition and then rush to Chang'an directly from Mathura.

"Take this and walk along the east coast, you will meet the right person. Then you can give this thing to him and tell him your request, and he will satisfy you." Gumara said gently.

"Go east and take the coast?" Gu Laili showed no fear when he heard that. Those areas occupied by the Han Dynasty were indeed dangerous, but for Gu Laili, who didn't cause trouble, it was actually not difficult at all. Unlike the famine years in the north of the Han Dynasty, when there were no wild animals or even greenery in the wild, on this side of the Ganges, someone of Gu Laili's level would never starve to death by hiding in the woods.

In other words, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to provoke the Han Dynasty, there will be no pressure for Gu Laili to go through the wilderness areas.

"Yes, you will meet that person when you go there. When you see that person, you will know that this is the person you are looking for." Gumara said indifferently.

"Okay, give me the thing." Gu Laili said, stretching out his hand, and then Gumara handed a bead to Gu Laili and disappeared on the spot, leaving only a slight sigh.

"Why does this thing look more and more like a spiritual relic?" After Gumara disappeared, Gu Laili looked at the beads in his hand with a solemn expression.

"Forget it, even if it is a spiritual relic, it is not mine." Gu Laili looked at the beads in his hand that looked a bit illusory, and quickly gave up thinking. The most urgent thing was to go to Chang'an first.

After preparing some dry food and honey and leaving a letter, Gu Laili set off towards the lower reaches of the Ganges. With his mobility, his long-distance mobility would not be much slower than Huang Tao if no one stopped him. It's just that Gu Laili had mostly been on the battlefield in the past and had little time to understand the people's livelihood. This time, without any mission assigned by his superiors, Gu Laili went from the upper reaches of the Ganges to the lower reaches, and truly realized the huge difference in the people's livelihood between the two sides.

However, even though Gu Laili noticed this huge difference, he did not take it too seriously. He could only say that it left a trace that might be used in the future.

For Gu Laili at the moment, the most important thing is to go east and find the person that Gumara said he would know once he saw him.

However, after crossing the Indian Ocean and even heading northeast along the coastline, he did not meet the so-called suitable person by Gumara, so much so that Gu Laili even thought that Gumara was lying to him. It was not until he rushed all the way to the mouth of the Yangtze River that Gu Laili caught up with the warships of Jiangdong.

At this time, Gu Laili didn't feel anything until Zhou Yu, dressed in white and looking heroic, appeared at the bow. Gu Laili's blood boiled, and when he was ready to encounter Zhou Yu and kill him, he inexplicably developed a feeling that Zhou Yu seemed to be the right person that Gumara said.

"Do you mean that I should give this to Zhou Yu?" Gu Laili frowned. For the elite veterans of Beigui, most of them wanted to kill Zhou Yu and avenge the princess. But honestly speaking, for the elite veterans who are still in Kushan, the princess is not as good as the monarch, and the monarch is not as good as the princess!
So for a greater goal, although Gu Laili had some uncontrollable murderous intent, he still took the bead to see Zhou Yu.

To be honest, theoretically speaking, it is very difficult for ordinary people to see Zhou Yu at his current level, especially since he was assassinated not long ago and his security system has become more complete, so ordinary people can't see him at all.

For a guy like Gu Laili who had no identity in the Han Dynasty, there should be no chance at all. However, the guidance of the Destiny Channel was so amazing that when Gu Laili was holding the beads and thinking about how to meet Zhou Yu next, Zhou Yu came out of the cabin to get some fresh air and happened to see Gu Laili moving forward on the sea.

Although Zhou Yu was the weakest among the weak, he still had vision. He saw Gu Laili from a distance and was sure that he was a very powerful veteran.

For this Chang'an military performance, some veterans from Jiangdong had already arrived in advance. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, as the finale bosses, were of course the last to appear. Well, no joke, it was mainly because the current situation in Jiangdong was extremely chaotic. After the collapse of the military system and the assassination of Zhou Yu, the entire Jiangdong was now in chaos. It was only thanks to Zhou Yu's successful resurrection and defeat of Meng Kangbu that the situation was stabilized.

In addition, when Sun Ce conquered Southeast Asia, he rewarded his officers and their families generously, causing the major families and officers to be distributed on different large islands. Even though the upper class was in chaos and was on the verge of a fight, the middle and lower classes who followed Sun Ce and Zhou Yu could still concentrate on farming.

After all, no matter how chaotic Sumatra is, it is still several levels away from those islands that are engaged in farming and development. There are also middle and lower classes who still don’t know that the military system is gradually disappearing in Jiangdong. After all, “the emperor is far away” is an adjective in other places, but it is a fact in Southeast Asia.

You have to know that even Sun Ce could not accurately explain how much land he had granted to the soldiers who followed him.

If we talk about the actual number of acres of fiefdoms in the local area, that is the actual number of acres. As for the fiefdoms in foreign countries, including those issued by Liu Bei to 327 nobles under his command in recent years, the way of fiefdoms is almost the same. But you can continue to occupy them as long as no one stops you.

Sun Ce's enfeoffment was similar to this. The island was one thousand square kilometers in size, and the warrior's entire family, young and old, and more than a hundred relatives and friends were all enfeoffed there, and the problem was solved.

In addition, no taxes were levied on these fiefs in the early days, and the families of soldiers who died in battle were exempted from labor and forced labor. Sun Ce thought that he would not need to disturb these people for nearly ten years, letting them enjoy a pastoral life and only notifying them of the major events of the previous year every year.

As a result, even if these small fiefdoms were not isolated from the outside world, they were almost so. In addition, many people wanted to make a living by serving in the army, and if one of them died, the whole family would be exempt from labor. So after they had tax-free land, they just focused on farming and had no contact with the outside world at all.

From a certain perspective, the diligent calculations of the Jiangdong noble families are not as good as Sun Ce's big hand wave, saying that it has not been easy for everyone. They have fought for the country and suffered heavy casualties during the battle to kill Celian. Now we have finally won. I will enjoy it, and you can enjoy it too. How about this, those in the middle and lower classes who have received fiefs will first be exempted from ten years of taxes, and then your labor and forced labor will be exempted, and then go back to play!

The major families in Jiangdong had no objection to this. After all, Sun Ce fed them enough. It was impossible for Sun Ce to subsidize his own soldiers. If they objected, Sun Ce would be unhappy, and they would definitely be uncomfortable too. So they could do whatever they wanted.

After this move, Sun Ce will definitely have a difficult ten years. He will feel half dead no matter what he does. But after enduring these ten years, Jiangdong will definitely not be the world of the aristocratic families anymore. No matter how stupid the lowest-level soldiers are, at least they know whose rice they are eating!
Ten years of tax exemption, no labor and forced service, what does that mean? It means an explosive growth in the birth rate, and this is Sun Ce's base. As for the Jiangdong aristocratic families, they have never been Sun Ce's base, never!
However, this matter was also exposed because of this commotion. After all, they are scattered on the islands in Southeast Asia, with a hundred or eighty people on this island and thirty to five hundred people on that island. Compared with the tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people gathered in the aristocratic families, they are indeed insignificant. Not to mention all the islands in Southeast Asia, there are more than 20,000 islands of all sizes in the Malay Archipelago alone.

Sun Ce could fly himself, and he took the veterans who had fought in the battle of Celian with him to select and choose, and thousands of islands were divided up.

As a result, on Sumatra and the surrounding large islands, the Jingchu family had an absolute population advantage. However, when Sun Ce was ready to take action because Zhou Yu's men were dead, he had more troops than the Jiangdong family, and they were more elite...

I don't mean anything else. After coming to this island and losing contact with their family for four years, the rich kids all feel that it is more comfortable to be the head of the family. Besides, their own island has been developed for four years and it is endless, absolutely endless. Even now they can still come up with some new things from time to time.

It's like this now, what else can I say? Of course I will follow General Sun and follow his will!
Emmm, today I went to celebrate the 100th day of my friend's daughter
