Chapter 158: Imperial Power and Family Interests

Su Dingfang also took out an ebony card from his arms. The two ebony cards were placed together and almost exactly the same.

But if you look closely, there are still subtle differences in the font. Su Dingfang himself knew that this one was different from Xiaoshuai, and he left it for his son Su Qingjie's one, but it was exactly the same as Xiaoshuai.

However, Xiaoshuai is much older, and she has patina and two wooden signs are put together, but Xiaoshuai is more like a real person.

The Su family was not a famous family before, and there was no token of family transmission. Su Dingfang was just a general of the Left Guard for twenty years.

Before this Western Expedition, Li Zhi conferred Su Dingfang as the General of the Right Guard and the Duke of Linqing County. The Su family finally stepped into the threshold of the wealthy families of the Tang Dynasty.

Since he became a wealthy family, Su Dingfang was happy and made two ebony cards as certificates for the Su family's direct descendants. One was preparing to enter the coffin with him, and the other handed it to his only son Su Qingjie.

This is something he has just made not long ago. Except for the celebration of his own and his son, others would never know that Su Xiaoshuai could not forge such a wooden sign to fool him in advance.

Besides, the iron-painted silver hooks engraved on the wooden sign Su Xiaoshuai was definitely carved by himself. But this wooden sign should be in the festival in Shiping’s hometown. How could Su Xiaoshuai have it? How could it be?

Seeing the confusion of the ancestor, Xiao Shuaicuo said for a long time, "This... ancestor, I am actually... the descendant of your 65th generation. This matter is a long story. You have to patiently listen to me to explain it slowly."

Su Xiaoshuai pulled Su Dingfang to his tent and explained in detail. After hearing that Su Xiaoshuai was parallel to time and space and traveled through time for a long time, Su Dingfang understood it, but he still couldn't believe it.

Xiaoshuai took out the tablet and put Su Dingfang on the improvement of the opening-up film that he had left at Kangju Zhe Temple. He took out another book of "New Book of Tang" and stuffed it into Su Dingfang's hands.

Su Dingfang looked at the exquisitely printed books, but fortunately they were in the traditional version. After turning a few pages, he was very interested and quickly found the "Biography of Su Dingfang". After reading it for a while, he closed his eyes.

After a long time, the old general Su opened his eyes and said, "Little Shuai, let me say that in the Light God Realm, there is another person like me, but he has only been dead for more than a thousand years. Are you a descendant of that person?"

Seeing Xiaoshuai nodding, Su Dingfang walked around with his hands behind his back, "The past has lasted thousands of years. If you have arrived in this world, this new book of Tang is not accurate."

Xiaoshuai was proud, "I still did something that affected the world."

"Then do you want to follow the Tang Dynasty or become an emperor in the future? Our Su family has never had an emperor. If you have such good conditions, I will fully support you. It is not impossible to create a Su Dynasty."

Was Su Dingfang a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty? Sure, he was so loyal that he could not be more loyal. However, once the family interests conflict with the imperial power, there were not many people who were aimed at the imperial power. Who wouldn’t look to their descendants?

Xiaoshuai took out the globe with his hand, which was prepared for seeing his ancestors long ago.

"Old ancestor, I have been thinking about this issue for a long time. In this world, strength is still the most respected and with enough strength, even if you don't have a title, you are still the king of uncrowned.

I don’t want us Tangren to fight around, it’s cheaper to foreigners. My ancestors, this world is very big.”

Su Dingfang digested Xiaoshuai's words for a while, stared at the globe for a long time, and sighed.

"With the vastness of the Tang Dynasty, it only occupied such a small piece of the earth. Xiaoshuai, you are still young. If you can really put all the places where the sun shines under your command, you will have two of the three parts of the world, and you will naturally be wearing a yellow robe.

I am old, but my ambition is not old yet, so I can still help you as much as possible. If you can really build an army like the Light God Realm and dominate the world, my Su family will surpass the Old Li family and be the number one in the world."

The next day, Xiaoshuai led Su Dingfang to inspect the thirteenth Taibao of the Su family, the personal guards of the musket team, artillery, and grenadiers.

Su Dingfang's vision widened and saw the power of submachine guns, smoothbore guns, artillery, Congrive rocket launchers, and grenades. He returned to his temporary residence in Suye City, fiddled with the globe given by Xiaoshuai, and smiled at the sky.

The Tang Dynasty, the Dayuezhi, and the Western Turkic coalition forces repaired in Suye City for seven days. The Tang army pursued He Lu, and did not stop for twelve days, and it would not be possible to recover for seven days.

During this period, Xiao Shuai sent himself and Asina Zhenzhu's subordinates to search everywhere to find He Lu's traces. On the eighth day, the good news came and He Lu was caught.

He Lu was desperate all the way and ran to Sudu City, Shiguo. At this time, the horse refused to enter and everyone was hungry, so he brought the treasure into the city and prepared to buy the horse. The city lord Ineda came out to greet him. After entering the city, he detained He Lu and sent him to the capital of Shiguo, Kanjie City.

Kanjie City is Tashkent, modern Uzbekistan. The king is Xiaoshuai's subordinate. He immediately found the Dayuezhi garrison in the city and reported the good news to Xiaoshuai using the radio station in the army.

Xiaoshuai reciprocates the King of Shi Kingdom and the city lord. He Lu and Yan Chuo were captured. This Western Expedition was a complete success. The call for victory was immediately called to Daxing Palace in Chang'an. The next day, the reward was transmitted from Daxing Palace.

The newly occupied Turkic territory was divided into the east and west wings according to tradition. The eastern wings were basically in Xinjiang in later generations, and the Kunling Protectorate was built, and the capital Shuanghe was the capital. There were fifteen governors' offices below, and He Lushi, the veteran Tuqi Shi, who surrendered, served as the archer, and was under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Protectorate.

Cheng Zhijie, the commander of the Western Expedition Army, was unfavorable at the beginning of the battle, but he could make corrections. In the end, the Western Expedition was successful, and his merits and demerits were offset. After Shuanghe assisted He Lushi in stabilizing and good governance, he immediately led the main force of the army back to Chang'an to report.

The western wing included the Western Turkic territory captured by Helu, and the remaining territory of Yipi Shekui Khan, and built the Mengchi Protectorate. Suye City was changed to Shuye, and it was the capital of the Mengchi Protectorate.

There are eleven governors' offices under it, which are under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Protectorate, and Su Dingfang serves as the Protectorate.

Su Dingfang won consecutive victories in this Western Expedition, which was his first contribution. While taking office as the Protector of Mengchi, he was promoted to the General of the Left Wu Guard and was entitled to Duke of the State of Suppression. He was granted a fief of 500 households in Julu, Xingzhou, and his son Su Qingjie was also named Duke of Wuyi County.

In terms of official position, Su family has officially become a top wealthy family.

He went to the title of Khan of Yipi Shekui and changed his position to the governor of the Julan Governor's Office under the Protectorate of the Mengchi. Who made his territory so large? The Western Turks no longer had the strength to resist the Tang Dynasty's transformation of land and return to the flow.

However, due to Asina Zhenzhu's contribution to the Battle of Jinya Mountain, Prince Zhenzhu was named the deputy protector of the Bengchi Protectorate, which was older than his father's official, and the Western Turks should be able to satisfy him.

Inie Dagan, the lord of Sudu who captured He Lu, had already received the reward from Xiaoshuai and was also named Dayuan Marquis by the Tang Dynasty, which was considered an unexpected surprise.

It is normal to capture the enemy chief and be appointed as an official, but Inetargan is the subordinate of Xiaoshuai. The emperor awarded rewards through Xiaoshuai. This is another temptation to infiltrate the imperial power into the vassal states.

Next, it is a reward to Xiaoshuai.
