Chapter 2102 Isn't it beautiful to be a Tang Dynasty person?
While the Tang Dynasty instituted a ban on weapons of mass destruction, their negotiations with the Golden Kingdom of Tatar were also continuing.
The two sides have already reached an agreement on the main principle issues in this negotiation.
The main principle issue is that the Tang Empire canonized the third generation king of the Tatar Jin Kingdom as King Shunyi and gave the country the name "Jin", but prohibited the Tatars from continuing to use the name Datang Jin Kingdom. The word "Tang Dynasty" cannot be used indiscriminately.
.
At the same time, the two sides signed a formal armistice agreement, stopped the war, and restored normal commercial relations. Datang exported some weapons to the Golden Kingdom of Tatar as normal, and imported grain, wool and other special products from the Golden Kingdom of Tatar.
The Jin State handed over the Ukraine, Poland, Lithuania, Romania and other regions to the Tang Empire as a whole, and before the handover, all the people were moved away, and the infrastructure was not allowed to be deliberately damaged.
Considering that the migration of people takes time, the transfer of the above-mentioned areas is not a one-time move, but divided into ten batches and is scheduled to be completed within five years.
The first batch of transfer areas are Ukraine, Lithuania and other regions. The transfer of this area will be completed within six months after the signing of the agreement.
At the same time, Datang promised to gradually reduce free assistance to the Kingdom of France, the Kingdom of Spain and other countries. The specific reduction plan is integrated with the plan to transfer the control area to the Golden Kingdom of Tatar.
The entire plan was for the Golden Kingdom of Tatar to exchange a large area of territory for normalized relations with the Tang Dynasty, and at the same time to have the Tang Dynasty give up its support for the Kingdom of France, the Kingdom of Spain and other countries.
Is this in the interest of the Tang Empire?
Sacrificing the interests of France, Spain and the Ottoman Kingdom in exchange for large tracts of uninhabited territory would definitely be in the interest of the Tang Dynasty, but it would not be in the interest of other European countries.
To capture such a large area of territory without spending a single soldier, without even spending a dime to buy it, and without spending a lot of money to relocate and resettle a large number of natives, this kind of good thing would have been a good thing if the Tatars had not come to the door.
You can't find it when the time comes.
In addition, there is a more important point, that is, the agreement has been signed now, but it can still be modified in the future. For example, Datang said it would gradually weaken its free aid to France and Spain.
But they didn't say that they couldn't help now. During the negotiation, the Tang Dynasty had already directly found Spain and the Kingdom of France, preparing to send them a lot of weapons and ammunition.
And this only refers to free assistance. The Tang Empire can still continue normal trade with France and Spain.
We can no longer send weapons, but we can sell them. If we sell them cheaply, it is also a normal arms trade and has nothing to do with aid.
To put it bluntly, whether or not to provide assistance in the future still depends on Datang itself.
The Tatars also know this, but they don't care, or they have nothing to do.
Because the people of the Tang Dynasty said: freedom of trade is an inviolable right of the Tang Empire. We are willing to do business with you Tatars and we are willing to do business with the Spaniards. That is our freedom. No natives are allowed to interfere. Who dares to interfere?
Who will I destroy...
Therefore, what the Tatars want more is the attitude of the Tang Dynasty, or simply the verbal commitment of the Tang Dynasty people.
Moreover, they were not afraid of the Tang Empire deliberately stumbling upon them.
The transfer of territory will be carried out gradually, and the migration of people also needs to be done by the Tatars themselves.
If the Tang people were disloyal and tried to accept territory while continuing to send large amounts of weapons and ammunition to France, the Tatars would not obediently carry out mass migration.
Anyway, now the Tatars have figured out that the Tang people want territory, but they don't want population.
And now the Tatars also understand one thing, that is, these Tang people allowed their Jin country to engage in melee with European countries, not because they were displeased with their Jin country, but simply because they wanted them to kill each other.
This is to drive away tigers and wolves, hoping to let the Tatars occupy a large area of Europe, and then take away the population and give them to the Tang Dynasty.
Why do they think so?
Because they knew very well that they had no power to resist the Tang Dynasty's attack, but why didn't the Tang Dynasty move westward?
As long as the Tang Dynasty was willing to move westward, the whole of Europe would not be able to stop the Tang Dynasty's attack.
But they refused to attack. Instead, they encouraged the European natives to fight against the Jin Kingdom, just to make them kill each other.
No one is stupid, the Tang Empire did this very obviously.
Not to mention that the Golden Kingdom of Tatar can guess it, the Ottoman Kingdom, the Kingdom of Spain, France and other European countries can actually guess it more or less.
It’s just that they still don’t understand the brain circuits of the people of the Tang Dynasty.
You are so awesome. If you just attack me, it will be over. Many lords of small indigenous countries have already decided to pay attention. As long as you, the Tang Dynasty, dare to attack me, I will surrender directly.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to be a Tang Dynasty person in the future?
However, this is why the Tang Dynasty did not fight...
If we fight, we will have to accept tens of millions of indigenous people. From now on, these tens of millions of indigenous people can happily say that I am also a Tang Dynasty person. From now on, I will be a person of the Tang Dynasty and die as a ghost of the Tang Dynasty.
People in the Tang Dynasty felt sick just thinking about this scene!
This is the reason why the Third Western Expedition of the Tang Empire has been delayed in launching. Insufficient military expenditure is just a superficial reason.
Now, the Tatars have seen this demand of the Tang Dynasty, and directly called out the trading model of giving away land but not people.
No, this immediately aroused the interest of the people of the Tang Dynasty. For this reason, they were even willing to normalize relations and confer the title of King Shunyi, which the two sides had been unable to negotiate in the past few decades.
After knowing this core appeal of the Tang people, the Tatars will naturally make good use of it. In the future, if the Tang people behave one way on the outside and another behind the scenes, then the Tatars will not only not relocate the people in the immigrant territories, but also
People from other places migrated to the territory to be transferred.
Bad habits kill the people of Tang Dynasty!
So, despite the fact that the Tatars seemed to have paid a high price and did not even get a formal commitment in the end, in fact the agreement was only superficial. What the two sides actually talked about was that the Tatars would help Datang solve the indigenous problem.
, the Tang Dynasty allowed the Tatars to move westward in the future and allowed them to obtain a real land.
As for the areas currently controlled by the Tatars, they are not considered their territory because the Tang Dynasty does not recognize it.
After the agreement between the two parties was signed, the delegation from the Golden Kingdom of Tatar left!
Not long after the delegation from the Golden Kingdom of Tatar returned, they came again. This time it was not an ordinary delegation, but the third generation king of the Golden Kingdom of Tatar.
He will go to Jinling to pay tribute and receive canonization!
In fact, the Tang Dynasty people did not want them to go to Jinling City to receive the canonization, trouble!
It's just a vassal state. It's not that big of a deal. Just send an imperial envoy to Berlin to confer it and that's it.
However, the Tatar Jin Kingdom insisted on requesting to pay tribute to Jinling and accept the canonization.
It is said that King Shunyi really admired the local style of the Tang Dynasty and the style of the Holy Emperor. He wanted to go to Jinling City in person to kneel in front of the Holy Emperor and shout long live!
Seeing that King Shunyi was so sincere, and seeing that the Tatar Kingdom wanted to give back its territory alive and dead, and that they wanted to be the pioneers of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty reluctantly allowed them to enter the country to pay tribute and accept the canonization.
To be honest, allowing King Shunyi to enter the country and pay tribute was the most generous thing the Tang Empire had done to the indigenous people in the past twenty years!
Because this is the first time in twenty years that an indigenous king has gone to Jinling City to pay tribute. The last time an indigenous king was allowed to pay tribute to Jinling City was more than twenty years ago.
Even the Golden Kingdom of Tatar knew about this kind of grace, so King Shunyi did not hesitate at all. As soon as he learned the news, he rushed to Ruos City and prepared to go to Jinling City to meet the Holy Emperor!
