"Are these people from Xue Yantuo all dead? We finally bought some time for them, but these guys didn't do anything and died somewhere overnight?"
General Molun said while eating the roasted lamb leg in his hand. Sitting next to him was Wadahan, the special envoy from Gao Changguo who came to greet him.
"Do you think the people on the other side are ordinary people? The elites of the Tang Dynasty defeated the Turkic army, the Goguryeo army, and Xue Yantuo's army. They are not easy to deal with. Now Xue Yantuo only has more than 10,000 people left.
If they want to take action, why don't they be more careful?"
Wa Dahan is the younger brother of the King of Gaochang Kingdom. He is considered the prince of Gaochang Kingdom. He is just a half-brother. Otherwise, he would have been named a prince long ago. However, with his intelligence and intelligence, he is also a prominent figure in the official circles of Gaochang Kingdom.
own place.
The reason why they accepted Xue Yantuo Khan was because they were interested in the treasures in Xue Yantuo Khan's hands. After Xue Yantuo Khan arrived in Gaochang Kingdom, he was like a boy who scattered wealth and fed everyone in Gaochang Kingdom. That's why they had
After seeing the previous scene, Gao Changguo promised to help him deal with Datang, but it was just a delay, and he would never really become an enemy of Datang. He had to do the rest by himself.
"We only promised six days. If they really come after six days, you have to leave. We can't really break with Datang. We trade more goods with Datang every year. If
If the Tang Dynasty seals the border, it will be a huge loss for us, and we cannot do such a thing for Xue Yantuo."
General Mo Lun is also an opponent of the imperial court. He has no good impression of Xue Yantuo Khan. He feels that because such a person is at odds with the Tang Dynasty, it is simply water in his head. When he met with Su Dingfang yesterday, his lying behavior made him feel uncomfortable.
He felt very disgusted.
All countries in the Western Regions want to make good relations with the Tang Dynasty. Now that there is such a good opportunity, we should hand over Xue Yantuo Khan. This can not only gain the favor of the Tang Dynasty, but also reduce security risks in our territory.
Ever since Xue Yantuo Khan's men came in, thefts have occurred all over the Gaochang Kingdom.
To put it nicely, it was stealing, to put it badly, it was robbery. Xue Yantuo Khan's men were not good people. They didn't take out many things when they escaped. In addition, after arriving in Gaochang, they gave away gifts everywhere, and they no longer had anything in their hands.
How much money was there, so he started robbing everywhere. Fortunately, he didn't rob the Gaochang Kingdom's caravan, but the caravans from other countries had already suffered a lot.
This will not affect the economy of Gaochang State in the short term, but the impact will be obvious over time. If others think it is not safe here, then they will not come to Gaochang to do business. In the end, Gaochang State's tax revenue will increase significantly.
General Mo Lun has already sent the memorial, but unfortunately, everyone in Gaochang Kingdom has benefited from Xue Yantuo Khan too much, and no one takes this matter seriously.
"It won't be our business after six days. I have already written to the Khan of Xueyantuo about the border situation. He also promised to handle the matter within six days. In fact, the matter itself is very serious.
Even if something happens to the envoys of the Tang Dynasty outside our territory, we are still involved on our border."
Wa Dahan is a visionary person, but because of his status as a concubine, not many people in Gaochang Kingdom take a fancy to him, otherwise they would not let him be the envoy.
"Then why do we do such a thing? If Datang misunderstands us, we will suffer a lot in the future."
General Molun said puzzledly, since you can see this clearly, why don't you tell the king?
"Who do you mean by us? If there are only two of us, then I will immediately go to see the envoys of the Tang Dynasty and push Xue Yantuo Khan out. But the question is, who are you and me? You
A border guard general, I am the king's concubine, to put it bluntly, when Xue Yantuo Khan sent gifts, neither you nor me were on his list."
When Wadahan talked about this matter, he was very angry in his heart. Xue Yantuo Khan was like a boy who was giving away money, but what was given to him? It was only fifty taels of gold. For ordinary people, five
Ten gold cars is already a lot, but for Vadahan, this is just like sending away a beggar.
Take the princes of Gaochang Kingdom as an example. They all received two hundred taels of gold, which was four times as much as Wadahan. What those people were doing was just spending time and drinking with him in the royal city. Wadahan was with Dahan.
The envoys Tang contacted, just because of his status as a concubine, didn't he know how to give gifts?
General Molun remained silent. It was indeed what Vardahan said. The two of them were young. Although they were considered nobles in the eyes of ordinary people, in the eyes of real nobles, they were both insignificant people.
"You'd better write another letter to His Majesty the King. I saw clearly in the morning that a pack of wolves attacked them last night, but none of them were injured. Instead, dozens of wolves died. On the Gobi Desert
You know better than me how cruel the wolf attacks are. If the wolves attacked us last night, several people would have died."
General Molun thought for a while and said, he is just a small border general, not ranked high in Gaochang Kingdom, and only has a few thousand people under his command, but Wadahan is different, even though he is the king's concubine brother
, but he is the king’s younger brother after all.
"I've said what needs to be said many times, and if I say it now, I'm going to annoy people. We can't save this country. The people at the top are rotten. They can't do anything except take bribes.
But we can do something..."
Wadahan's eyes shone brightly. General Molun next to him didn't know what he was thinking, but General Molun knew one thing, that is, the people from Gaochang King's City once said that Wadahan was the best place in their city.
The smartest person.
"What do you need me for?"
General Molun is not smart and only has brute strength, but his grandma told him that you will never suffer losses if you follow a smart person. In his eyes, Wadahan is the smartest person, so he will follow Wadahan.
"Prepare some cattle, sheep, and other supplies, and deliver them to the Datang military camp in person to express your goodwill, not Gao Changguo's goodwill..."??
