Chapter 557 King Gaochang’s greed for money

The senior officials of Gaochangguo never expected that the Tang envoy would arrive so quickly. According to their previous predictions, there should be one or two days of free time. They also hoped to use these two days to discuss a corresponding plan.

Their response was to act like a wallflower, neither offending the Tang Dynasty nor causing substantial harm to Xue Yantuo Khan. They just gave them a piece of wasteland and let them stay on this land, and then Slowly let Xue Yantuo Khan continue to give you gifts, people like them like to make a fortune.

Don't think that this is a small fortune. Since Xue Yantuo Khan came to their land, almost everyone in the court has eaten a lot. Xue Yantuo Khan also understands that if these people are not fed, , why do they make things easier for you under the guise of resisting the Tang Dynasty?

"His Royal Highness, why don't you go out to greet us first?"

After the soldiers below finished speaking, the king didn't react for a long time. It was really that the king was quite entangled in his heart. It might as well be to come up with a solution. Now he was in the middle of the entanglement. The special envoy of the Tang Dynasty came. He would submit it in public later. In terms of credentials, how should we deal with this matter?

But now they have arrived outside the city. If you don't go to greet them, there will be a problem with etiquette first. This guy scolded his brother Wa Dahan, and he didn't ask you to delay it for two days. ? Where did you drag it?

According to the original order, Wadahan should be able to delay for two days, but now he has surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. Of course, the King of Gaochang Kingdom does not know about this matter, so how can Wadahan continue to delay? He had already launched all Gaochangguo's plans, and Lord Zhao also knew about it, so they came over non-stop in order to catch the king of Gaochangguo off guard.

Of course, Mr. Zhao will take everything on himself and will never let Wadahan bear any responsibility. This person is our chess piece in Gaochang Kingdom, and he is still a very important one. If something goes wrong If something happens, it's not worth it for us, so we have to protect him well.

"Send all the tents out of the city to greet him. As long as they are adult nobles in the city, they will all go with me."

The King of Gaochang Kingdom sighed, now that it has reached this level, you will definitely not be able to escape if you want to, so we can only go out to pick up people honestly.

The National Preceptor and General Zhenguo heard clearly that although the king was greedy for money, he did not dare to offend the Tang Dynasty. This was normal. Which country around him dared to offend the Tang Dynasty? Count the countries they destroyed with their fingers. , which one is not more powerful than our Gaochang Kingdom? If you offend them because of this matter, you may be safe in the past two years, but if you go further, can you still guarantee your safety?

Su Dingfang also put on full gear. The Tang army, from war horses to armor, is the most beautiful among all countries. Especially after Li Xiang's improvements, it looks very impressive. Such an army The army arrived at the royal city of Gaochang Kingdom. Not to mention their common people, even some knowledgeable officials did not hesitate to extend their thumbs after seeing it.

After all, the army of the Tang Dynasty is much stronger than the armies of small countries like ours. It can be seen from the mental outlook, and many people are standing on the city wall. Seeing the orderly formation of the army of the Tang Dynasty, especially The formation of the cavalry is so neat. It seems that the training is very strict. At least if we look at our Gaochang Kingdom from beginning to end, I am afraid we will not be able to find an army like this.

After the king of Gaochang Kingdom saw this scene, his face was very complicated. He didn't know how to describe such a mood. It is estimated that every king is like this. Who doesn't want to have such an army under his men? If If we really had it, we would be able to have a stronger back than before, but now they are all from other people's countries, so that would not be of any benefit to us. If they were to be attacked, we might not even be able to escape.

"The Special Envoy of the Tang Dynasty to the Lifanyuan..."

After being introduced by Wa Dahan, Mr. Zhao held Li Shimin's credentials and came to the King of Gaochang with his head held high. As a special envoy of the Tang Dynasty, he only needed to bend down. This was also There are rules, but if the special envoy of Gao Changguo arrives in the capital, he must conscientiously learn to kneel three times and kowtow nine times.

This is a very unfair treatment, but all countries in the Western Regions have recognized it. Although your Gaochang State is a relatively powerful country in the Western Regions, if you compare it with the Tang Dynasty, it is really not good enough. There are hundreds of people in the country. With a population of 10,000, the population of Datang is dozens of times larger than yours.

As for the cavalry you are proud of, the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty is standing in front of you now. This cavalry is not just about appearance. When he arrived at Xue Yantuo, he never failed.

The mood of the people at the top and bottom of the Gaochang Kingdom is extremely complicated. If things like Xue Yantuo Khan had not happened, they would be very happy to establish good diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty. Even if they were led by the Tang Dynasty, it would not matter. Everyone knows that there is a kingdom called Heaven, which is the leader of the world.

But now that there is Xue Yantuo Khan, the more powerful the Tang Dynasty is, the more dangerous it will be for us people.

The dissatisfaction on the face of General Zhenguo has already been shown. When Xue Yantuo Khan was about to come in, he and his faction were members of an extremist organization. What they feared most was that the Tang Dynasty would express its anger here, but they did not expect that the senior officials of the imperial court wanted money. Just let them go. It doesn't matter if you let them in, but they must not be enemies of the Tang Dynasty.

But what makes General Zhen Guo helpless is that money can make all the difference, and money can also buy the king of Gaochang Kingdom. They actually helped Xue Yantuo devise such a strategy. Unfortunately, the combat effectiveness of the Tang army was too strong, and Xue Yantuo There is no chance at all.

Now Xue Yantuo's people have been defeated and have run into the depths of the wasteland. But don't think that this matter is over. The people of Tang Dynasty have already investigated the surrounding area. As long as his IQ is online, he can understand this matter. The people of Gao Changguo cooperated in the matter.

If the local snakes don't cooperate, how can this be accomplished? Although people from both countries now have smiles on their faces, many people can feel that the Tang army came with murderous intent, and they are dissatisfied with us in their hearts...
