King Bakhna was originally a Turkic chief. He took advantage of the opportunity of Dashi and the Tang Dynasty to compete for the Western Regions and gained control of the city. After becoming independent, the country pursued a strategy of trying to get both sides. Even if it asked the Tang Dynasty for help,
He paid tribute and refused to offend the cannibal too much. More than ten years ago, his king Asilanda Khan was canonized as the King of Fenghua for his meritorious service in helping the Tang army eliminate the Tuqi Shi Khan spitting fire immortal. After that, because of
Married Princess Yihe, and his relationship with Tang Dynasty became increasingly close.
Asillanda Khan was a very clever man. He tried many times to remove himself from the king's title. He imitated the situation in the Gaozong era and the whole country was vassal. The post of governor of Xiuxun Prefecture was enough. In order to promote benevolence to the countries in the Western Regions, the Tang Dynasty
, but they have been slow to accept his enclosed request. Both sides pretended to be confused, and no one punctured the last layer of window paper, and they got along harmoniously with each other. Every time the Anxi Army fought in the river
, Ashilanda Khan will definitely send troops to help. And every time the Anxi army wins a battle, he will distribute a large amount of gold, silver, livestock and grain, so that the Bahna soldiers will return satisfied with large and small packages.
In the Battle of Talas in the tenth year of Tianbao, Bahanna once again sided with the Tang Dynasty. However, due to the betrayal of the Geluluo people midway, the Anxi army suffered the most serious setback in fifty years. After the war, the countries in the northwest of Congling
Caught in the front and back attacks of Dashi and Ge Luluo, they had to surrender. The Bahan country had no choice but to follow the trend and was forced to cut off contact with the Tang Dynasty.
But Asilanda and his ministers knew very well that although the strength of the Anxi Army suffered serious damage, with the support from the Central Plains, it would only take three to five years for its strength to return to its heyday. And although the cannibalism is coming,
Although the country's wealth and power cannot be compared with that of the Tang Dynasty, even though the Bahanna Kingdom turned to Dashi as its suzerain, it still treated the people under its rule equally and refused to live or die like the neighboring Geluluo and Zhezhi.
In this way, all the people in the country who had anything to do with the Tang Dynasty would have their property confiscated and be demoted as slaves.
The master of the Dashi Sect was naturally very dissatisfied with such a group of "stubborn" guys. Just because the civil strife in the country had just ended, he could not spare any time to deal with it. So he had to adopt the old method, first using religious forces to gradually attack the local nobles.
Infiltrate, and then look for opportunities to destroy Asilanda and introduce a more obedient puppet.
This well-worn tactic naturally made Asilanda and his ministers even more alienated. Therefore, they were always staring at the Anxi Army's every move, preparing to regroup. Feng Changqing defeated Tianfang in Jiantuoluo.
After the news of the Sect's Eastern Expedition spread, the entire Western Region was shaken. The local nobles who had originally taken refuge in the Tianfang Sect began to draw a clear line with the masters behind them. Axilanda took advantage of the law and order to prevent Xiao Xiao from taking the opportunity to cause chaos.
, and severely dealt with the pro-Taishi forces in the country. However, the "Wang Master" immediately stopped with Xiao Bolu and refused to move westward. Asillanda began to regret it again and complained about the Taishi.
Why didn't I remind myself that Xiang Zhang was precious, so I made a big mistake rashly?
At this juncture, the son of Sharp Surun, the governor of Mulu City, suddenly arrived secretly with an envoy from the Tang Dynasty. How could Asillanda and his ministers not be overjoyed? He immediately ordered people to open the main gate of the palace to welcome his long-lost friend.
In the name of Wang Xun and others, Wang Xun and others were welcomed in. The guests and hosts had a good conversation, and a preliminary agreement was reached one day later. In the spring of next year, the Anxi Army of the Tang Dynasty will choose an opportunity to cross the Congling Mountains. By then, the two countries of Bahanna and Mulu will
I will set an example for the other countries in the west of the Ling Dynasty and respectfully welcome the king's master by the banks of the Yaosha River.
In order to give Anxi military advisors a reason, Bahanna and Mulu will also take the lead in bringing together the Lingbei countries blocked by Geluluo, as well as Persia, Southern India, Tochara, etc. that were conquered by the Great Eclipse.
, proclaimed his vassal status to the Tang Dynasty again. At the same time, he begged the king to continue marching westward, completely drive out the food-carrying bandits, and save the Li people in the west of Lingxi from fire and water.
"The good teacher knows that although our Lingxi countries have the same origin, they are all good and bad. Some of them still remember the support and rescue provided by the Tang Dynasty, but some have their consciences long ago snatched away by wolves. They are big cannibals.
He will bite whoever you ask him to bite!" After being the first to use his seal on the form that had been drafted in advance to beg the king to march to the west, Ashilanda, the leader of the Bukhana Kingdom, pondered for a moment and solemnly reminded him.
"There is an old saying in the Central Plains, which is that the nine sons of dragons are all different." Being able to persuade Asilanda to return to the Tang Dynasty so quickly was so smooth that it was beyond Wang Xun's expectations, so he didn't care much about the possibilities ahead.
The troubles he will encounter, "Those who fly high above the clouds like King Fenghua will definitely be able to see farther. And some short-sighted fools are destined to carry stone tablets for others!"
The traditional sacred object of the Turks is the wolf, but through several generations of exchanges with the Central Plains, intermarriage, and cultural gaps have been very small. Ashilanda is also very clear about the legend of dragon sons and grandsons, so there is no need for others to explain it to him.
, could understand the meaning of Wang Xun's words, smiled happily, raised his voice a little and said: "But those fools always underestimate their abilities and always want to compete with the real dragon. Even if they don't have the courage to fly
When you are in the air, you will lie on the ground as a roadblock!"
"Then just move them away!" Wang Xun also smiled, his young face full of confidence. "It's just that King Fenghua needs to indicate who it is in advance, so as not to cover his head again when we send troops from the Tang Dynasty.
Come pretend to be submissive!"
Hearing this, the eyes of several ministers who were close to the Tang Dynasty immediately shone with eager light. Asilanda could not hold his breath, nodded, and continued to use the topic: "As a minister of the Tang Dynasty, of course I have to share the worries of the Lord.
.It’s just that although my short-sighted brothers are guilty, the people under his command are innocent. They are my compatriots after all, and I really can’t bear to let them suffer the pain of national subjugation again!”
This was simply a test of Wang Xun's guessing ability. Fortunately, before departure, Xue Jingxian had already prepared enough answers for Wang Xun based on the information provided by Su Shi, Prince of Mulucheng, and the situations that might be encountered in the Hezhong area.
Pretending to hesitate for a moment, Wang Xun shook his head with a smile, "In the Tang Dynasty, when dealing with the countries in the west and north of the Ling Dynasty, we have always only sought the status of a monarch and a minister, and have never sought an inch of territory. The Anxi army is busy confronting Dashi, and I think it will be a while.
I can't find suitable people to govern the place. According to my envoy's wishes, instead of sending an official from Chang'an who is unfamiliar with the local people, it is better to simply trouble the princes to put more thought into it. In this way, you will be rewarded for your hard work.
Thanks to the hard work, the local people don't feel too sad. It's just that I don't know if King Fenghua still has extra energy?"
"I have been greatly favored by the Tang Dynasty many times and shared your Majesty's worries. How can I dare to push back and block you? Not to mention that I am still young and strong at this time. Even if I am too old to crawl, I dare not delay your Majesty's entrustment!" Ashilanda's eyes brightened!
, no longer dragging Wang Xun around, and responded impatiently.
