The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

Chapter 455 The envoy was killed

Li Chengdao decided to send an envoy to Tianzhu, and ordered the king of Tianzhu to go to Chang'an to report on his work, and bring the medicine to treat Li Xiaodie - ambergris bone.

This task is naturally a matter for Honglu Temple.

As soon as Honglu Temple received the imperial edict, it immediately ordered Wang Xuance (an official of Honglu Temple) who was far away in Tibet to go to Tianzhu with thirty followers.

As soon as Wang Xuance was killed, he did not dare to delay and led his deputies Li Yibiao and Jiang Shiren to prepare for departure.

Less than half a month later, Xuanzang arrived with a few disciples. The two teams met, prepared gifts for meeting the King of Tianzhu, and headed west.

India (now India) was in the period of the Gupta Dynasty, and King Harsha was regarded as a national hero by the people of India.

When he was a prince in his teens, he led his brother Luo Jia, who was also a prince, to conquer the east and west and unified Tianzhu.

A great deal of construction work was carried out to build Buddhist temples. Everyone in Tianzhu believed in Buddhism and became a Buddhist country.

Qunu City, the capital of Tianzhu.

King Harsha sat high on the throne with a bad look on his face, and the ministers sitting on both sides were silent.

The information sent back by the envoys stationed in the Tang Dynasty caused quite a shock in the Tianzhu palace, and the king was even asked to go to Chang'an in person. This was tantamount to the Han people treating Tianzhu as a vassal state.

Suddenly the entire aristocratic class was talking about it, and some generals even asked for orders to guard the border to prevent Han Chinese from raiding.

Some people advocate negotiating with the Han people and striving for another ten years of peace. Tianzhu has been unified, and it only takes ten years to be on an equal footing with the Tang Dynasty.

Both the nobles and ordinary people of Tianzhu felt that Tang's stubbornness was a fluke, and Tianzhu would surely surpass Datang as long as it had some time.

The whole Tianzhu is full of mysterious confidence.

"I heard that the Han people sent envoys Wang Xuance and Xuanzang to our country. What do you think?" King Haris sat high on the throne and glanced at his ministers with a calm expression on his face.

The Brahmin loudly said: "Our country has envoys stationed in Chang'an, and the Tang Dynasty will send envoys. I am afraid that the Han people will not like us and want to annex us."

"I guess this is what the Han people mean. Please ask the king not to allow Wang Xuance to enter the country!"

Kshatriya said: "I don't think so. Our biggest enemies are still the Turks. They have been occupying our land every year after their defeat. It is better to discuss with the envoys of the Tang Dynasty and deal with the remnants of the Turks together."

"The Turks are a minor disease, but the Han people are a serious disease!" Rojava said: "The appetite of the Han people will never be satisfied. If the Jumlang Maalin Mountains had not blocked them, their power would have entered our land long ago. .”

"They are powerful, and we yearn for their culture and technology, but we are not easy to bully! I heard that the Han people are going to establish a Grand Duchy! What does the king think?"

"Your Majesty! I think that our Tianzhu people are far more intelligent and talented than the Han barbarians. In recent years, a strange emperor has appeared in the Tang Dynasty, which made the Tang Dynasty so powerful. But that is the power of one person. I think it is better to delay the troops first. It is not friendly. Conflict, if I wait a few years, Tianzhu will definitely be more powerful than the Tang Dynasty!"

This was a delaying strategy. King Haris turned his head and looked at everyone.

The Brahmin said: "The so-called principality is just a cover. The Han people want to use the name of the principality to occupy the world without any blood! The Han people have a saying that they can use the emperor to control the princes. If the principality is established, the Han people can do whatever they want in the name of the principality. We must be prevented from destroying us! We should put war first..."

King Ji Ri said: "Wang Xuance is here, everyone doesn't agree!?"

"He's coming! He just wants us to agree to the establishment of a principality! Will the king agree or not?"

"Then what can you do to stop him? Send troops?"

Luo Jiavatan said: "In terms of national strength, we are not as good as us. The Han people are already the hegemons of the world, but we can create accidents to prevent them from entering Qunu!"

The Kshatriyas also agreed with this idea: "We don't want to go to war with them, but we cannot allow them to be bullied. Only by refusing can we show our self-respect! The Han people cannot bully them at will!"

"Although delaying is one way, the Tang envoy has arrived at the door and has to deal with it!" King Harsha said: "Okay! Let's do it! If war breaks out, I am willing to march eastward to destroy the aspirations of the Han people! They can't get past them. From Jumrang Ma’alin Mountain.”

The Brahmin said: "I got a reminder from the Buddha that we can unite the Arab Empire. Aren't their envoys about to meet the king?"

King Harsha suddenly thought of this section and said: "Then let him enter my palace. Now I am more confident. If the Arabs are willing to work with us and not succumb to the Han people's power, we can say no to them." !”

King Harsha immediately met with the Arab envoys.

He did not expect that the Arabs were more interested in competing with the Tang Dynasty than they were.

After all, the Arab Empire at this time was much more powerful than the Gupta dynasty.

As soon as the Arab envoy entered the palace, he loudly said: "The Han people want to establish a principality. This is a fool's dream. My king has said that if the Tang Dynasty dares to do harm to your country, as long as your country can persist for five months, our army will arrive soon. Contact us again." It is not difficult for the Turks to dismantle the Tang Dynasty!"

King Haris said: "Your Majesty, do you know that the Turks are also our great enemies!"

"If we deal with the Han people, I believe the Turks will not forget their hatred of genocide. I am willing to go find the Turks!"

So the two sides discussed and finalized a cooperation treaty to jointly deal with possible Han dangers.

……

Wang Xuance and Xuanzang's group of more than thirty people crossed Tubo and entered the Queen's Kingdom in just one month.

When the queen heard that the angels of the Tang Dynasty had entered the city, she led all the officials to welcome her, showing her admiration for the Tang Dynasty. Now the Queen's Kingdom respects women and has polyandry. The status of men in the Queen's Kingdom is lower than that of women. In the business of labor and slavery, women are in charge of the house and men follow their wives.

Men are of low status simply because they are incompetent.

In order to show her affection, the queen rewarded Wang Xuance with a large number of gold and silver gifts.

After changing the road stickers, we passed through the Queen's Kingdom for more than ten days and finally arrived at Chaboluo City, a large border city in Tianzhu.

Chaboluo City is the largest border city north of Tianzhu. It is stationed with General Dogolo of Tianzhu, with 30,000 garrison troops and 600 war elephants.

The city wall is tall and thick, and is entirely made of hammered earth. It is very different from the masonry city walls in the Tang Dynasty.

"Listen to the city guards, I am the Angel of the Tang Dynasty, and I have been ordered to go on a mission! Please open the city gate!"

As soon as he arrived at the city, Li Yibiao was ordered to shout loudly.

"Listen, Han barbarians! We don't dare to open the city without receiving the king's order. We will go back to where we came from! We don't know what angels are!"

After hearing the words of the city guard, Li Yibiao hurriedly reported to Wang Xuance. Upon hearing this, Wang Xuance ordered to station on the spot and prepare to send people to the city to contact him.

Xuanzang said: "Master Wang, as a monk, the young monk does not belong to the imperial court. Tianzhu is a Buddhist, so the young monk may be accommodating!"

Wang Xuance thought it was reasonable and asked Xuanzang to call the door.

Unexpectedly, Xuanzang led a few monks to the city gate. Although the defenders were very polite, they still refused to let them in.

Because it was almost dusk, it seemed unrealistic to enter the city today, so Wang Xuance ordered to camp in the wild.

In the middle of the night, someone suddenly heard people shouting for horses to neigh. A follower crawled into Wang Xuance's camp and shouted: "Soldiers and horses are coming to kill!"
