Ji Tang

"The Tang Dynasty has been kind to you, from the very beginning. Because you are the survivors of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, I, the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty, as well as the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, all have a good impression of you."

"Therefore, when facing some of your demands, those who can open up the door will open the door to convenience. These are beyond the reach of other countries."

"The truth may be cruel, but I hope you can think carefully before making a decision. The patience of the Tang Dynasty is limited, and there is a bottom line for its own people. It is not advisable to blindly ask for things. If you want to get anything, you will inevitably pay a price."

"Do you really think you can obtain smelting technology? It's a joke. There is a well-known saying in China, which is that brothers settle accounts clearly. It means that when facing interests, even brothers must make it clear."

"You should understand."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tinaire felt sweat on his forehead. Ji Song didn't say a harsh word and even looked kind. But he felt that Ji Song was different. Whatever was gentle and kind was just fart.

This is costing their Maya's life!

"I just want a guarantee!" Tinaire had no intention of continuing the conversation, because he knew that they had no leverage at all.

If I don’t agree with Datang’s conditions, Datang won’t go to Yinzhou? Without Datang's help, they would not even be able to return home.

Not to mention others.

"Say it, as long as I agree, I won't refuse!"

Ji Song was not surprised at all. Facing the absolute strength, all resistance was in vain. If the Mayans were a mature civilization he might not have done this, but they weren't. From beginning to end, it is at most the prototype of a civilization. There is no concept of grand unification, let alone the awakening of national pride and awareness.

Now is the time to completely classify it into the Chinese civilization. If you miss it, when the Mayans see all the countries and civilizations, when these Mayans who have absorbed the essence of the Tang Dynasty return to Yinzhou, they will inevitably be destroyed in a very short time. The Vietnam-style development in the country is like Tubo today.

Therefore, instead of causing big trouble in the future, it is better to end the root cause here. Compared with the Mayan civilization that disappeared in later generations, he believed that this was the best opportunity for the Mayans.

Therefore, he feels at ease!
Tinaire smiled bitterly and said, "For no other reason than I want to ask Mr. Hao to give the Mayans a way to survive!"

Ji Song was stunned. At first he thought the other party had not completely given up, but looking at the other party's stubborn pleading, he suddenly understood.

"I can guarantee the protection of your country within fifty years, but only in the areas you currently control. Others are not included here."

"Is this possible?"

Tinaire looked at Ji Song in disbelief and trembled: "Seriously?"

"Oh, the teacher doesn't bother to deceive you. Who is the teacher? Go out and find out. Whatever the teacher says, he has never regretted it!"

Wang Xuance glanced at the other party and said somewhat indignantly.

"Xuance must not be rude!"

Ji Song stopped Wang Xuance and said with a smile: "This is not a difficult task for me, and the Tang Dynasty does not intend to completely annex you. It's just that once the pardon is granted, it will be beyond the control of the imperial court."

"I may be able to protect you during my lifetime, but after that you have to rely on yourself." "And!"

Ji Song said solemnly: "The prerequisite is that you must speak Chinese and wear Hanfu. This is the bottom line!"

"I think you should understand the benefits of doing this. Only when you become your own people and fully integrate into the Chinese family can you be protected by the Tang Dynasty, and your country will become one of the vassal states of the Tang Dynasty. Instead of being special Walk alone!”

"I understand!"

Tinaire sighed deeply and suddenly grabbed his Mayan clothing and pulled it. When Ji Song was stunned, he saw that Tinaire, who was wearing Mayan clothing just now, was already wearing Tang Dynasty's upper and lower garments, a large cloak and an inner garment. .

He tied up his loose hair with a wooden hairpin and wore decent clothes. Who can say that he is a foreigner?
The same black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin. Except for the stiffer face, there is no difference between them and the Han people!

"Now, is Mr. Xi satisfied?" Tinaire sighed.

Ji Song was speechless. He didn't understand the helplessness and pain of running away from his own civilization, but as a civilized smart person, he should consider the future of the ethnic group.

Integrating into Datang is a helpless choice, but is it not a shortcut?
Living in the Tang Dynasty for many years made him understand how fragile the Mayan civilization was. It was a deformed civilization, an unbalanced civilization, and a civilization with obvious shortcomings.

As Wang Xuance said before, given the current level of development and deformity of the Mayans, without the intervention of outsiders, it is very likely that they will regress or stand still.

He stayed up all night last night, thinking about all the possibilities, but none of them could avoid this situation. With the exposure of the new world of Yinzhou, all the existing forces are sharpening their knives, waiting to slaughter the fat piece of Yinzhou.

In contrast, rather than letting those people get Yinzhou in the future, it is better to invest in Datang from the beginning. At least Datang and them still have a little "incense". After they give up some things and take the initiative to integrate into Datang, they will not be able to do it in the end. Will do a great job.

"You are the real wise man. You will be glad for your choice today, I promise!"

Huh~
Tinaire was noncommittal and said: "Maybe!"

Ji Song stepped forward to straighten the other party's clothes and said: "Friend, please believe me, Datang is cruel when facing his enemy, but he is gentle and even kind when facing his friends and brothers."

"You and I are of the same race. This is an indisputable fact. Looking forward, all the unhappiness. After the Mayans have achieved happiness and peace and tranquility that they could not even imagine in the past, what you insist on actually doesn't mean anything. "

"People have to live first before they can think about other things, what do you think?"

Will Ji Song be worried about Maya losing control? No, he was never worried. After Maya was completely integrated into China, he was one of his own, no different from the feudal princes.

When there is me among you and you among me, Maya is the Maya of China, and China is also the China of the Mayans. China has never judged whether you are a barbarian based on blood.

If you enter China, you will come to China. This is the inclusive heart of China.

Sometimes we have to be willing to accept the wisdom of our ancestors, who defined a boundary that sometimes disappears for China. This tolerance has been engraved in the bones and genes of the Han people. This is the greatest wealth left to us by our ancestors.
Because of them, we can tolerate everything. Because of them, we can accept this tolerance with peace of mind.
This makes it easy for the world to accept and recognize it (End of Chapter)
