After hearing the news of Bagman's death, the old monkey was silent for a long time before saying to Yun Chu, "The Tang Dynasty has completely given up on the dignity of warriors."
Yun Chu said, "We have not given up, we just make choices when pursuing the warrior spirit."
The old monkey said again, "The death of Bagman will cause the warriors in the Gobi to launch a surprise attack on you without any warning."
Yun Chu said in surprise, "They raided the Tang Dynasty caravan before. Did the army receive the advance warning you mentioned when they raided it? I don't remember such a thing."
"The strong should have mercy"
"Why do you think of talking to me about this? Don't forget that I grew up in the Western Regions. I have never seen any strong man with a kind heart."
If it weren't for my cleverness, cruelty, and ability to use poison, Selema would have been snatched away by those strong men who are not strong, and Naha would have been snatched away by those who are as fat as pigs. I am good at raising sheep.
, they just want to take away my whip, which is good at weaving. They just want to take it away for nothing. I have seen too many people who have been ravaged by strong people. Therefore, when I meet strong people, I usually like to kill them.
Otherwise, at least let him lose the ability to harm others."
Even if Bagman is not killed by a bomb thrown by the prince's men, I still have a bomb in my arms. If I feel that the situation is not right, I will throw a bomb and kill him."
"Do you think you can make the people of the Western Regions surrender with just bombs?"
"I think it's okay, as long as I have enough bombs."
The old monkey was silent again. He had used bombs before and knew the power of this thing. Experts like Bagman were originally the targets of various tribes and countries in the Western Regions to recruit. Here in Datang, after a few bombs were thrown,
Nothing was found, and the old monkey also knew that making a bomb in Datang only requires a certain amount of money.
And how much does it cost for Bagman to grow up from birth? Not to mention martial arts training, which is very expensive. What's more, in the Western World, it takes many, many years for a person like Bagman to appear.
.
Such a person was only worth a lot of money in the Tang Dynasty, almost the same as the price of a pig, and was not the kind of castrated top-quality pig that Jinchangfang needed.
People who have been lucky enough to grow up in decades will be destroyed in just an instant.
If Old Monkey were from the Tang Dynasty, he wouldn't feel so awkward. The problem is that he himself is from the Western Regions, so he is worried about those people from the Western Regions.
Yun Chu brought three thousand elites out of Yumen Pass, and it was said that they were doing business. The old monkey knew clearly that Yun Chu's purpose was to rob.
He even hoped to gain support from the horse thieves, mountain bandits, and sand thieves along the way, and provide them with all kinds of materials that would be enough to travel long distances in the Western Regions.
As for the Stone Kingdom, it will definitely be a disaster.
most of the time.
The old monkey thinks that he is not a reasonable person. Now, in front of the Datang Group, his unreasonable behavior can almost be called a gentleman.
"Are you going to the Western Regions?" Yunchu asked, knowing that the old monkey wouldn't go.
"If you don't want to go, Junior Brother Yuanchi will go."
Hearing the old monkey talk about Master Xuanzang, the most low-key disciple, Yun Chu was quite unhappy.
Because this man himself is a descendant of the royal family of the former Silla Kingdom.
Yunchu would subconsciously have a strong sense of distrust towards people other than his own people in the Tang Dynasty. In this regard, he was far less broad-minded than the natives of the Tang Dynasty. In fact, Yunchu was not a real Tang Dynasty person.
, he is only a descendant of the Tang Dynasty, so for a long time, Yunchu classified his love for the Tang Dynasty into the bad category of convert's fanaticism.
Later, when I thought that the bones of my ancestors were returning to dust on this land, I firmly believed that I belonged here too, and that I should make this place better.
"Why Master Yuanchi?" Yunchu still asked.
The old monkey smiled and said, "I'm still from the Western Regions. Why can you accept me but not Yuan Chi and people like you?"
Yun Chu frowned and said, "You should know."
I am a person who likes to doubt others, and I am also a person who likes to speculate on new acquaintances with malicious intent.
"
In my world, everyone is guilty first, and then acquits the sinner after a long period of mutual understanding."
"Do you think Yuan Chi is guilty?"
Yun Chu smiled and said, "It's not like you don't know how I survived in the Western Regions. If I didn't have this thought,"
I would have died long ago"
The old monkey sighed and said, "Xuan Zang is naturally generous and kind."
You haven’t accepted it even a little bit.”
Yun Chu dismissed it. This dead monkey obviously got an advantage and was still acting nice at this time.
For this long journey, almost the entire city of Chang'an was in motion. From preparing goods, to preparing camels, to preparing weapons, and arranging routes, Yunchu, Wenrou and others were busy without touching the ground.
When the time comes to July.
Chang'an City is still unbearably hot, but the road to the Western Regions has begun to get cooler.
This time of year is a good time for the caravans from the Western Regions to drive their camels back to the Western Regions. It is also the day when Yunchu's army leaves Chang'an.
"Bring me back a lot of money..." This was the farewell message of Li Hong, a bastard.
"Find me the best piece of warm jade. My wife wants to use it..." This was Li Shen's ardent expectation.
"Bring me back some beauties from the Western Regions..." This is the hope of Liang Jianfang, an old bastard in a wheelchair who is still lustful.
"Have a good trip, County Lord..." *** Mr. Wan has been an official for so long, but he still can't speak.
"I don't know what to say, but when you come back, I might remember what to say." This was the nonsense Di Renjie said.
"I was originally going to say goodbye, but now I'm on board with it." Zhong Kui, dressed in Taoist robes, did not escape Yun Chu's plan after all, and inexplicably embarked on the road to the west.
Yunchu saw Changsun Chong in the shed, smiled, raised his hand, nocked his bow and shot an arrow at him.
Yujian fell on the beam of the shed, and there was a note on it. Changsun Chong read the note on Yujian, waved to Yunchu, chewed up the note and swallowed it. His actions were very secretive, and only Yunchu could see it.
The clearest.
The team led by Yunchu should be the largest friendship mission with the largest number of people, the most goods, and the highest standards sent to the Western Regions by the Tang Dynasty since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Because Yunchu also carried the decree written by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to the kings of the Western Regions, as well as the letters of friendship written by Honglu Temple to various tribes in the Western Regions. Of course, he also brought a lot of Buddhist scriptures. He hoped that these Buddhist scriptures could bring peace to the Western Regions where the killings continued.
From then on, bathed in the light of Buddha, the people of the Western Regions lived a happy and healthy life...
Yu Xiurong, his gentle wife and their children accompanied them all the way to Xianyang Bridge, and then reluctantly went back.
When the three thousand cavalry of the Tang Dynasty who were waiting here stepped onto the newly built Xianyang Bridge, Yunchu heard the rumble of war drums and the soaring suona sound. This was the grandest farewell gift given to them by the folks in Chang'an.
Since the Xianyang Bridge was blown up by Yunchu, the old wooden railings have been replaced by iron railings, which are connected with iron ropes. There is a long row of iron animal heads on the iron railings, which looks a little more sturdy and a little less.
Partly feminine.
When Wen Wen walked onto the Xianyang Bridge, he was unwilling to take a carriage. Ever since he witnessed Yun Chu's bombing of the bridge, he was very resistant to crossing the bridge. According to Wen Wen's wife, he didn't even want to sit on the pool at home.
All the small stone bridges were demolished.
In fact, it wasn't that he didn't dare to cross the bridge, it was that he didn't dare to cross the bridge when Yunchu was not around. The explosion on the Xianyang Bridge that year had been deeply imprinted on Wen Wen's mind and was indelible.
He liked walking across the bridge with Yun Chu while holding the horse.
You can also stand in the middle of the bridge and express your ambitions to the roaring Wei River.
"I heard that Your Majesty is going to allow your nobles to leave Yumen Pass in the west, and allow them to enclose some land in the Western Region, and then plant cotton, flax, spices, and chickpeas on these lands.
You feel
Where should I enclose the land in the future?"
Yun Chu smiled when he heard this. It seemed that the Wen family had already started plotting things in the Western Regions.
"The closer it is to Yumen Pass, the better, and it is a place with flat land and water sources."
"Do you think I am a little greedy in acquiring 100,000 acres of land?" he asked Yunchu gently and cautiously.
Yun Chu did a little conversion in his head to the size of 100,000 acres of land, and found that it was only a piece of land of 6.6 million square meters, no more than thirteen miles long, and no more than two miles wide.
Thinking of the terrifying family size of Wen Wen's family, she smiled and said, "People from the Western Regions who have such a large pasture are all targets of being bullied. Why, do you, the Wen family, have no money or people?"
He said gently and tentatively, "You mean you can make it bigger?"
Yunchu pointed at Naha's carriage driveway that he just passed by, "The place Naha made is more than a hundred times bigger than the place you want to make at home."
Gentlely raised his hand to say hello to Naha who was lying on the window looking at the Weishui River, "You can't compete with Naha. She represents the entire Buddhism. In the future, God knows how many monks will arrive from the Central Plains to preach in the Western Regions. What they have made is a
The Buddhist Kingdom is not a manor."
Yun Chu smiled and said, "What do you think is the purpose of such a Buddhist kingdom existing in the Western Region?"
Gentle said, "If you are not living well in this life, you can pray for happiness in the next life."
Yun Chu took a long breath and said, "What about you?"
Wen Wen said, "Compared with the next life, I care more about what we have for lunch."
"Do you think people from the Western Regions will believe it?"
"I'll believe it"
"Why?"
"Without the ability to change the current situation, seeking happiness in the next life is the only way they can take."
"It sounds so fake——"
"If you believe it, there is still hope. If you don't believe it, there is nothing. So, won't the suffering in this life be in vain?"
Yunchu licked his lips and said, "That makes sense."
