Chapter 162 I know it’s wrong, but I can’t control it (please subscribe)

Noticing Zhang Ke's turning back, Captain Lu breathed a sigh of relief.

Then the riding whip in his hand fell on the back of the pulling dragon, and with a slightly painful neigh, the two dragon horses pulling the cart kicked their hooves several times.

A burst of fire burst out from under the hooves, and the already speeding frame was even more speedy at this moment.

It turned into a stream of light and went straight in front of Zhang Ke.

"Finally. I finally caught up!"

He reined in his horse and parked the carriage aside. Lu Pan stepped out of the carriage and gasped for air.

"What kind of wind brought Judge Lu here?"

Zhang Ke glanced at the frame of the vehicle pulled by Longma.

It is made of gold and decorated with jade. Even a cushion is not only made of silk and gold, but also refined into a magic weapon, which not only makes people sit comfortably, but also provides the effect of clearing the mind and calming the air.

The frame is even more radiant, and the lights are shining non-stop. From the appearance alone, it is more luxurious and more gorgeous than Zhang Ke's car.

Did Judge Lu pull out the Emperor's bicycle frame?

This is not to say that Lu Pian cannot afford this frame, but this luxurious style is not something that an underworld god would choose.

As the Yin God of the underworld, even if he is a righteous god, his own things will inevitably be a little eerie and terrifying.

Just like Zhang Ke's bicycle frame, although it is also inlaid with gold and jade, the driver is Xiqu, who has the blood of ancient ferocious beasts.

And Lu Pan is naturally not exempt from vulgarity.

The dragon and horse drive, which is a bit inconsistent.

However, the question of who belongs to him is secondary. The key is that Lu Pian traveled thousands of miles from Dunhuang to China to find him. What on earth could be so important?

While thinking, Zhang Ke waved his hands to disperse the surrounding monsters and indigenous gods.

They don't deserve to hear the rest of the conversation.

After the surroundings became clear, Lu Pan also came to Zhang Ke. As soon as they met, he couldn't wait to grab Zhang Ke's arm: "You kid, you move too fast!"

"Didn't we agree to attack Tubo before? Why did we come to China again?"

"You're a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west, you're so out of touch! Not to mention dispatching a large army from the Central Plains, even the soldiers and horses of the Protector's Palace didn't respond. Even though our Tang Dynasty has strong soldiers and horses, the burden of fighting on multiple fronts is too much.

It’s too big, not to mention that the Western Region is already far away, and the Middle Kingdom is even more remote.”

"Listen to me, let's not be too ambitious. Let's take down all Tubo first, and then talk about other things?"

As he said that, he pulled Zhang Ke towards the carriage.

But after taking two steps, I found that Zhang Ke not only failed to catch up, but his feet seemed to have taken root on the ground and could not be pulled away at all.

Judge Lu, who had his back to Zhang Ke, looked bitter, but when he turned back, a puzzled expression appeared on his face: "What are you?"

Zhang Ke said: "Before Lu Pan came here, he probably hadn't been to Tubo, right? As long as you go and see it, you will know the situation. More than half of the Tubo soldiers and horses were lost, and all the gods and Buddhas were killed. Now not even a single person has been killed."

It’s not even an empty show, there’s no need to prepare at all, sending more than 10,000 infantrymen there will spread thousands of miles of territory and destroy the country!”

"Before leaving, I have ordered my day and night wandering gods to go to Xiyue Temple to report on the battle situation."

"I first destroyed Tubo and then came to China. I didn't fight on multiple fronts. Besides, look at the monsters, monsters, gods and natives in China. Everyone is yearning for me, the Tang Dynasty, and they have taken the initiative to join me. Where is the burden?

Are you burdened?"

Zhang Ke was calm.

He knew what Lu Pan meant, but Tubo was suppressed by a witch. Judging from the witch's past experience, after breaking free from the seal, she didn't mess up Tubo immediately because it was all for Zhang Ke's sake. superior.

Otherwise, if a land creature, especially a goddess, becomes ruthless, it will be much more terrifying than monsters and monsters.

With the witches guarding them and tens of thousands of Wuji soldiers wandering on the plateau, the Tubo people could not make any trouble at all, and they could only do some obscure things in private.

Use four words to describe Tubo today: it is impregnable!

As for Middle-earth, it was a pure surprise. Instead of being in Middle-earth and relying on geographical advantages to deal with him on his own territory, he gathered a large army to conquer him across regions.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with the idea that lips are dying and teeth are cold.

What was wrong was that they misjudged the timing.

After swallowing up all the lands of the Western Turks, Zhang Ke's strength has increased, and it is no longer something they can limit. In addition, the Tubo Buddha betrayed his teammates.

Facing the nearly crippled Middle-earth, if Zhang Ke doesn't come, is it possible that he has to give up to those angels? How is this different from a waste who pays compensation after winning a war? You think so, right?

Listening to Zhang Ke's calm yet resolute tone, Judge Lu sighed: "Why are you so stubborn!"

"Is conquering a country something that can be decided so easily?"

It would be great if there was a real battle to determine the outcome.

As the saying goes, it is easy to conquer the world but difficult to defend it.

The same principle applies to conquering a country. It is easy to conquer the city and occupy the land, but it is extremely difficult to conquer the hearts and minds of the people in this land later.

In particular, while winning people's hearts and changing customs, we must also pay attention to fairness.

Otherwise, if the treatment of the foreign barbarians is too high, it will inevitably arouse the dissatisfaction of the people of the Tang Dynasty, which will make the people angry, and those foreign barbarians may not appreciate it.

However, if we are too harsh on these foreign barbarians, it will easily cause people's hearts to wander, and eventually fall into a vicious cycle of repeated rebellions and counter-rebellions.

The most important thing is.

Nowadays the people don’t have enough!

You must know that before the Tang Dynasty established the Ding Dynasty, the world of Jiuzhou experienced hundreds of years of war, from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, to the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, to the Eight Kings Rebellion of the Sima family, and the subsequent Five Husbands Rebellion.

The land of Kyushu has always been shrouded in the clouds of war.

There are constant natural and man-made disasters, and demons and monsters are rampant. The people of Kyushu are not alive.

Even though the Sui Dynasty later unified the world again, another second generation died.

Kyushu is in chaos again.

When the Tang Dynasty was first settled, the Central Plains had ten houses and nine empty houses, and the world was plain.

Even with Taizong's Zhenguan rule, it has not been a hundred years since the world was peaceful. Although the vitality of Kyushu has recovered a lot, it is still far from its peak. It is like a person who has just recovered from a serious illness. If you want to recover, you need to Long term maintenance.

In other words, nowadays, even the people of the Tang Dynasty cannot finish arranging the land of the original Kyushu.

What's more, since the reign of Emperor Taizong, the Tang Dynasty has been engaged in continuous campaigns, conquering the Mobei Turks and attacking Goguryeo.

Conquer internally and conquer externally, winning consecutive battles and victories!

The land occupied is to relocate the people's past lives.

At the very least, the numbers of common people and barbarians must be maintained to an approximately equal level.

Only when there are more local Tang people, the possibility of rebellion will be reduced, and this land will truly move closer to the Tang Dynasty and integrate.

"It's not defeat, it's the burden that comes with losing."

Lu Pian said: "Even if the battle is won, the large amount of land recovered by the Western Turks will need to move more people. This is already a burden for the Tang Dynasty, let alone a Tubo .”

"These two pieces of land are half the size of the Tang Dynasty! How many people would have to be relocated, how many officials and land would have to come over. If tens of thousands of people smash it down, it won't even make a splash. At least it will involve A big event for millions of people.”

"Let's not talk about the difficulty of leaving our homeland. How many people are willing to leave their homes and come to the Western Regions and Tubo. Even if everyone is enthusiastic, the supporting officials and land cannot be created out of thin air. Do you understand?"

Judge Lu said in a low voice: "We must never take over this middle-earth territory again. There is no time to spare the extra land. Just listen to my advice and plan for it slowly. Anyway, we and other gods have long lifespans, so we are not in a hurry for this moment."

His voice became lower and lower.

Judge Lu found that Zhang Ke's expression did not change from the beginning to the end, as if he was talking to a stubborn stone.

No wonder the emperor had told him before he came: 'That boy is very stubborn. It will not be easy to persuade him to change his mind.'

At that time, Judge Lu didn't take it seriously.

After all, compared to the emperor, it was Lu Pian who had more contact with Zhang Ke. In his past contacts, he did not notice that Zhang Ke had this tendency, but he was very easy to talk to.

I don’t know which company trained the juniors.

However, I think he must be a wise scholar.

But now it seems.

It didn't matter what Zhang Ke was thinking, Lu Pan. He just wanted to take advantage of the Tang army to report their achievements and return to the Western Regions to attack the city and capture the territory.

Of course, you can't say it so straightforwardly.

So, he thought for a while and said: "The whole world is the land of the king, and the shores of the land are the ministers of the king. There are so many people in the world! Mencius once said: If you are poor, you can only benefit yourself; if you are rich, you can help the world."

"I was originally a mountain god in the countryside. I was occasionally appreciated by the emperor and was lucky enough to be valued by the emperor. I was lucky enough to get a small position of power. How could I not think about repaying it? Now, a big victory is the time to take advantage of the general trend and take advantage of the victory to pursue!"

"When I conquer the middle of the country, kick my feet to the extreme west, and destroy those birds and people, then the world will be unified and the whole world will surrender."

Judge Lu, who was watching, looked at Zhang Ke in a daze.

Originally, in his opinion, Zhang Ke was just greedy for the power of China and wanted to take it further. Of course, if it were him in the same situation, he would not be able to control it. After all, the Western Regions are now equivalent to Tubo. Half of the Tang Dynasty.

If we go one step further and take over the middle land, even if the land in the Western Region is a little barren, it is a land that is almost the same as the current territory of the Tang Dynasty. With such great achievements, a single throne may not be able to limit it.

"Hiss!" I don't dare to think, I don't dare to think.
