Chapter 2982 If there is a war in the future, the Yinzaka tribe must pay tribute to Cheng Saburo
The high priest Suo Guishang and Nao Guanhai and other Yin Shang remnants stared blankly at the exchanges between Cheng Sanlang and Li Dejiao.
The tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war were opened and closed, which made their entire tribe and the separated affiliated tribes get together. The talented people of the Yinzhaka tribe, who were afraid that even 50,000 people could not gather them together, had their eyelids twitching.
The Tang Empire, which had hundreds of thousands of elite troops, could capture tens of thousands of enemy prisoners of war in just one war.
The extremely famous Cheng Sanlang in front of him captured 80,000 of the enemy's elite troops in one battle with 500 elite men under his command.
No wonder his image has been carved into metal statues, and various legendary stories about him have been compiled into books.
This made the high priest Suo Gui Shang secretly make up his mind. We Yin Zaka likes to worship various gods the most.
It seems that if our Yinzhaka tribe goes to war with a hostile tribe in the future, we must pray to the metal statue of Cheng Sanlang. I believe it will definitely be useful.
As for the 10,000 Tang elites led by Li Jing, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, who deliberately trapped themselves in an unknown town in order to attract enemies, they were directly ignored by this feudal and superstitious high priest.
After they had dinner, they followed the Cheng family to the guest room specially provided for them.
He looked at the neat and elegant wooden building, and in the room, an iron stove was slowly steaming.
[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It is so easy to use. I rely on this app to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here www. 】
This was specially prepared by Cheng Sanlang because he was worried that people like them living in the tropics would not be able to adapt to the late spring in the north.
They watched as the man led them to the guest room and poured a black stone into the iron stove.
Then he put down the kettle, told them how to use the toiletries, and then left with their looks and thanks.
The high priest looked at the toiletries arrayed in front of him, including the soap that looked like solidified camel milk, and the towel that felt softer and more comfortable than the clothes he was wearing.
There were also all kinds of bedding specially prepared for myself and others. When I saw the young people around me, they looked envious and even greedy.
The high priest sat in front of the iron stove, feeling the warmth coming from the iron stove and the iron kettle lying on the iron stove.
In their tribe, if they accidentally find a piece of meteorite, they will be so happy that they almost go crazy, and they will keep it as a treasure, or they will make weapons specifically for the tribe leader or the bravest warrior.
But in the Tang Dynasty, iron tools... they actually used them to boil water and make fires. Even the metal mesh under the grilled lamb chops they ate today was made of iron.
As for copper, well, the Tang Dynasty directly made copper into exquisite currency. Unlike their tribe, who occasionally could trade some copper, they would carefully collect it and then make some vessels or sculptures to worship their ancestors.
But today, Suo Gui Shang also learned that the Tang Empire was so powerful that the whole world trembles and surrenders to it.
The output of their staple food was pitifully low. Using the Tang Dynasty's measurement method, their millet was only over a hundred kilograms per acre, and their rice was only about three hundred kilograms.
And the potatoes of their Yinzhaka tribe can produce one or two thousand kilograms of potatoes from one acre of land.
But the Tang Empire was actually able to use such a large amount of staple food to develop an empire so powerful that it was unbelievable for the remnants of the Yin and Shang dynasties...
"Great Priest, my disciples heard that the place we are in is the Liaodong region of the Tang Empire. Their opponent is a vassal state called Goguryeo. Because they did not listen to the teachings of the Tang Dynasty, they repeatedly harmed the people of the Tang Dynasty."
"So His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty personally led 100,000 elites to conquer Goguryeo, which had an army of nearly 500,000 soldiers and horses."
Ao Guanhai's words made the high priest Suo Guishang shake his head in disbelief.
"One hundred thousand versus half a million troops, and they easily defeated this kind of fortress."
"Yes, Great Priest, the Tang Dynasty is too powerful, so powerful that it's scary."
"Fortunately, the Tang Dynasty is very friendly to our Yin Zhaka tribe. Otherwise, with the small population of our Yin Zhaka tribe, we would encounter those warriors of the Tang Dynasty wearing iron armor..."
After a long journey, these survivors of the Yin Shang Dynasty, who were exhausted to death, were so excited that they couldn't sleep because of what they saw and heard.
They sat around the iron stove and whispered about what they saw and heard. In addition to being shocked, they were also filled with deep envy.
They were also very fortunate that the great ocean-going ships of the Tang Dynasty brought friendship to the Yin Shang Continent, and faced the enthusiasm and hospitality of the Tang Dynasty.
This made them more determined to study hard in the Tang Dynasty and strive to learn everything they saw, not only for the Yin Shang Continent, but also for the future of the Yin Zhaka tribe.

Li Shimin was standing outside Baibukou City at this moment, which was an important fortress set up by Goguryeo on the Yalu River.
By capturing this place, the Tang Dynasty could almost completely cut off the channels of communication between Goguryeo and the Liaodong region.
Just three days ago, when he was marching towards Bai Pukou, Goguryeo sent a peace envoy, willing to plead guilty to the Tang Dynasty, and to obey the Tang Dynasty as the suzerain in the future, and to serve the Tang Dynasty honestly.
Faced with Goguryeo's old tricks, no one, whether it was Li Shimin or his subordinates, would take Goguryeo's rights and interests seriously.
And Li Shimin told the envoy very directly that if you want to plead guilty, then ask your king to come in person to plead guilty. In addition, Yeon Gaesumun tied himself in front of the imperial commander.
After receiving such an answer, Yeon Gaesumun must have known exactly what kind of fate awaited him.
What's more, after Li Shimin listened to the analysis and narration of his virtuous son-in-law Cheng Sanlang, he also fully recognized his virtuous son-in-law's analysis.
Since the land of Liaodong has been prone to wars and disasters since ancient times, its strength is far greater than that of the Tang Empire in the past dynasties.
Why not bring this land directly under the rule of the Tang Dynasty?
Since the idle and virtuous son-in-law thinks he is confident and capable, that boy has already given him too many surprises.
There was nothing wrong with letting him give it a try. What was important was that Li Shimin had also made up his mind that this vast plain, rich in products, would be brought under the direct rule of the Tang Dynasty.
In this way, while riding the horse slowly, he continued to think about national affairs. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who was worried about the country and the people, heard the sound of galloping hooves coming from the side and rear.
Then Zhao Kun rushed to him and handed over a letter from Liaodong City.
Li Shimin took it and scanned it. The familiar childlike handwriting on it was an autographed letter from his talented Cheng Sanlang, whose calligraphy was no different from his father's.
