Chapter 899: Ancestor Zeng danced on the tip of the knife, stepping on the blue waters
The state always had a contradictory attitude towards Uszang.
The former chief assistant Yang Tinghe made it clear that this place should be included in the scope of the state and the dynasty, unless there is a large army and millions of people, let them be stationed on the shore of Qinghai Lake, and they will be deterred from the south of the mountain day and night.
At that time, the Western Army's plateau combat troops were training, but Yang Tinghe didn't believe it at all.
The Western Army is not a fool, "It would be useless to come a piece of barren and desolate land. How could they abandon tens of thousands of troops for this?"
Yang Tinghe believes so, and Li Dongyang believes so.
Now they all know that they are making a mistake.
Wei Yang's obsession with territory may not be able to understand in this world. No matter how poor or difficult it is to fight, he must fight. Fight down, defend, and seek development. This is his whole set of ideas.
The old emperor didn't understand either.
In the western front, he understood a truth - even if my house is garbage, it must be held tightly in his own hands.
For this reason, hundreds of thousands of men gathered on the northern foot of the Daxue Mountains to train day and night. They might not understand what they wanted to do, but they knew that if they didn't go, they had to go, and someone would always have to do it.
Wei Yang told the old emperor that the land of Uszang is very precious, both the water tower of China and the roof of the world. If you lose her, Nuwa will cry, and Yanhuang's ancestors will feel distressed.
"I don't know about this Uszang, but I know that I know that some people want to say that the Western Army spends so much money on that barren land. Instead of spending money there, it's better to spend money elsewhere. Some people want to say that it's good to use that place to hold the pace of the Western Army. For this reason, some people have already contacted some of the leaders of Uszang. Some people in the court have promised to give Uszang what benefits they want to give Uszang," the old emperor ordered, "I have a word to tell you today. Remember that the land of the Ming Dynasty can only increase and more. Even if it's barren, you don't know what delicious food will grow in those magical places. We have to leave enough rare things for our descendants. These things must grow out of the ground. I advise you to discuss everything, but don't discuss it with territory."
The four people in the cabinet looked at each other and felt that the old emperor had taken the wrong medicine.
In the previous dynasty, the Mongolian and Yuan army was so fierce that they could not completely control that place, right?
What is the national dynasty?
Just rely on the Western Army?
Just rely on the Western Army!
Soon, the messenger of Uszangtou arrived. The official words were a bit awkward, but the general meaning could be explained clearly.
The man came to the scene: "His Majesty the Great Emperor, the minister brought the best and best news from the highest place. Our heads knew the rules very well, and they brought us countless treasures."
"Okay, but why don't your boss come?" The old emperor was displeased. "Do you want me to invite them?"
The person who came said: "Your Majesty the Great Emperor, the people at the foot of the mountain will not understand the situation on the mountain. The head man must first maintain the legal system. This time, I am here to congratulate His Majesty the Great Emperor and congratulate the joy of Kunlun's feudal sorrow, and also ask His Majesty the Great Emperor to give blessings. People in the Great Snow Mountain should live on the Great Snow Mountain, and people under the Great Snow Mountain should live at the Great Snow Mountain. In order not to let both sides bleed, our head man is willing to respectfully wish His Majesty the Great Emperor a long life and great blessings."
this……
Haven't you learned how to say blessings?
"I will accept it with kindness. I will also send someone to give your head man a gift, hoping they will like it." The old emperor smiled.
The messenger said in surprise: "The gift of His Majesty the Great Emperor must be the most precious thing in the world. I wonder what it is?"
"One hundred thousand iron cavalry." The old emperor smiled.
The ministers were frightened and the messengers were frightened.
Why?
"My Emperor Taizu Gao restored the Han family from the hands of the Mongol Yuan. We have to admit that what we inherited was the Mongol Yuan's inheritance, including land." The old emperor explained.
The messenger asked in surprise: "But aren't we obedient enough?"
"Submissive? What I want is not someone's obedience. I only have one thing," the old emperor ordered, "You go back and tell your head, I only have your imperial book and fish scale picture album. If not, I will send someone to measure and draw it. It will be completed within two years, and there is no room for negotiation."
The envoy was shocked and said, "Your Majesty the Great Emperor, such a big place..."
"So, 100,000 cavalry is just right. I heard that your people live a very hard life, people are like cattle and sheep, and nobles are like emperors. I want to see, oh, by the way, my general also promised that your leaders are all good at dancing. I heard that during the reign of Emperor Taizong of Tang, the Eighteen Grassland Departments once took the initiative to enter Chang'an to perform dances for the Tang Dynasty. I, Kunlun Fengshan, and Qin Emperor and Han Wu, have never done it. I think, I deserve to entrust your leaders to enter the capital to perform a dance. Isn't it reasonable?"
This is very reasonable!
"If you don't come, you really have to go. If I don't go, the Western Army will also go. When you go back, tell them that neither of the two emperor's fish scale picture albums can be missed. It is best to send them to me before the end of next year. I will build a yard for your biggest leader in the capital. He can move in with his family, and he can't run away, and there is no choice," the old emperor ordered, "Okay, remember this matter first. There is one more thing to tell you in a moment."
The messenger was worried but dared not accept it.
"Remember?" The old emperor immediately said when he saw him opening his mouth and saying, "Wei Yang suggested that you have a golden urn drawing system. I look very good. Your big and small men, temple hosts, all need to listen to God's words. I am the emperor. You should listen to my words. If you don't listen, you will have to fight. Blood and sacrifice will have a bad impact on you. You must consider it clearly."
The ministers looked at each other collectively. Is this a clear consideration?
"Why did Your Majesty suddenly become so decisive?" The ministers who had never been to Guanzhong were surprised.
The King of Yue is the most surprised.
He knew the emperor very well, but before he could even get some of the tricks, he thought he could really command the world.
Moreover, the emperor generally does not say something that cannot be done. Since he said so today, he must have formed some tacit understanding with the Western Army.
In other words, Wei Yang was willing to serve as a pawn for the old emperor in order to completely control that land.
The messenger didn't understand what the golden urn draw was for?
"It doesn't have any major effect, but your head must be recognized by the court; your living Buddha must also be enthroned by the court," Wang Shouren smiled, "Encourt, this is for your own good. You must know that if the court enthroned, you are legal. Otherwise, you are illegal. Maybe, King Zhongshun found someone on the side of the road and said that this person has a Bodhisattva heart and should be your head and should replace your living Buddha. What should you do?"
The messenger shouted, "No, no, this must not be done."
