I’m Marquis in Great Tang

Fang Xuanling nodded, said: “Your Excellency Valdo, are you here on behalf of Persia?”

“Yes!”

Valdo said resolutely: “I come to Cháng’ān now to represent the Persian country. And I came because my Persian country sees Xia Country’s strength and needs to be suppressed. Especially now Great Tang, it is not low Xia Country. Therefore, both of us can form allies and attack Xia Country together.”

Fang Xuanling heard this, with a thoughtful look on his face.

The alliance of the two countries.

We will attack Du Qi’s Xia Country together.

As the Prime Minister of Great Tang, Fang Xuanling is not a fledgling person. He is well aware of the interests of nations. If the Persian nation is not driven by interest, impossible and Great Tang unite. In addition, if the Persian nation really attacks Xia Country, it can attack it alone, even if it does not unite with Great Tang, it will have no effect.

So Fang Xuanling thought about it a little bit, and he already had a decision in his heart. He smiled slightly and said: “Your Excellency Waldo, there must be a demand for Persia. Let’s say, what conditions Persia needs, and we will join us in attacking Xia Country. If it weren’t for the Persian country, it wouldn’t be great with me. Tang united. Because at this time the Persian nation joined Great Tang to attack Xia Country, it was equivalent to sharing the pressure for Great Tang.”

Waldo froze for an instant because Fang Xuanling took a look. See through the essence of the matter.

Seeing through, he wanted something.

Valdo said with a slight smile: “Chancellor Fang deserves to be the Prime Minister of Great Tang. It’s really amazing.”

Fang Xuanling said: “What do you want?”

Valdo said: “My Persian country needs Gunpowder’s formula and manufacturing method, as long as Great Tang gives this weapon. Then, my Persian country will send troops to attack Xia Country. When the time comes, my Persian country and Tang The State sent troops together. Even if Du Qi’s Xia Country is great, Du Qi will definitely not be able to withstand our attack.”

After Fang Xuanling heard this, said with a sneer: “You really are I have a good appetite. You will need the Gunpowder formula as soon as you open your mouth. Why don’t you go to Xia Country and ask Du Qi for it!”

Waldo said: “If Du Qi is willing to give it, my Persian country, Send troops with Xia Country.”

Fang Xuanling was silent for a moment, and said: “I cannot reply to you immediately on this matter. I need to ask His Majesty for advice.”

Valdo said: “Facts This matter is very serious. I believe Chancellor Fang must be difficult to decide. Therefore, I beg Chancellor Fang to take me into the palace. I want to enter the palace to meet the Emperor His Majesty and talk to the Emperor His Majesty about this matter. “

Fang Xuanling said: “Okay, I will take you into the palace.”

He has some understanding of the situation in Persia, which is a big country in the west.

The strength is not weak.

If the Persian nation is willing to send troops, it is excellent.

Fang Xuanling left the house with Waldo and went straight into the palace. When he arrived outside the palace, he asked for an audience. Li Shimin let Fang Xuanling enter, while Waldo waited outside the palace temporarily.

Fang Xuanling saw Li Shimin, he respectfully politely said: “His Majesty!”

Li Shimin said: “Xuanling don’t have to be polite, you just Soon after I returned, I entered the palace again. Could it be that I have already thought of a way to break the current deadlock?”

Fang Xuanling said resolutely: “His Majesty, the minister has not thought of a way yet. But there is something , It did involve a war with Du Qi, so the minister came to report immediately.”

Li Shimin said: “What’s the matter?”

Now the battle with Xia Country is already Li Shimin’s heart disease. Great Tang has fought numerous battles and suffered countless damages. Now that he wants to recruit his troops again, some of them are brutal. Because in such a short period of time, one after another conscription is a great burden for the civilians, so Li Shimin has been worried about this.

Fang Xuanling immediately talked about Waldo’s affairs, and also said that Waldo’s needs were Gunpowder. After finishing talking about Waldo’s situation, Fang Xuanling opened the mouth and said: “His Majesty, Gunpowder to the Persian nation, for us, is equivalent to giving a secret weapon and funding the growth of the Persian nation. Of course, the advantage is that after the Persian nation owns Gunpowder, we can fight Du Qi with us. It is somewhat difficult to rely solely on us. Yes, but with the Persian state, there is a chance to destroy Du Qi. The only problem is that once Du Qi is destroyed, then we may go to war with the Persian state.”

Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and said: “Xuan Ling, what is there, as long as it can destroy Du Qi, even if it is given to the opponent’s Gunpowder formula and manufacturing method, it is nothing. Persia is far west. The threat to us is extremely small. But now the threat posed by Du Qi already threatens the stability of Great Tang. If the threat of Du Qi is not resolved now, Great Tang is in danger. So now, as long as it can be destroyed Du Qi, then even if we go to war with Persia in the future, it’s okay. In short, although it has contributed to the strength of the Persian nation, it is cost-effective for us.”

Fang Xuanling said: “His Majesty Are you ready to agree?”

“Yes!”

Li Shimin nodded and said: “We now need the strength of the Persian nation. Du Qi’s strength is too strong, that many With an ally, then we will have hope of defeating Du Qi. In fact, even if the Persian State has Gunpowder, it will be difficult to destroy Du Qi. It can hold Du Qi’s pace so that Du Qi will no longer send troops. That’s pretty good.”

Fang Xuanling said: “His Majesty, Waldo is outside the great hall. Will you be summoned right away?”

Li Shimin said:” Don’t worry.”

paused, Li Shimin continued: “The problem right now is that the Persian nation is willing to send troops and is willing to attack Du Qi with us. Then we paid Gunpowder’s admiration and manufacturing method, we What benefits can be gained from the hands of Persia. After all, it is better to get more benefits.”

Fang Xuanlin g said: “Today, the strength of the Persian nation, I am afraid that without Gunpowder, it is not comparable to ours. It may be difficult to get benefits from Persia. After all, there is nothing worthy of our attention. “

Li Shimin was also nodded, and said: “That’s all, let the order go on and call Waldo in.” “

The waiter immediately gave the order.

Not long after, Waldo entered the great hall.

Waldo admired everything in the great hall, even This palace in Chang’an City is no longer luxurious, but in the eyes of Vardo, it is extremely splendorous and majestic, far beyond the Persian country.

After Vardo stops, he salutes “Waldo, the diplomatic envoy of the Persian Empire, visit Your Majesty, Emperor of Great Tang, and may Emperor His Majesty live a long life and be blessed like the Eastern Sea and live longer than Nanshan. “

Li Shimin listened to Waldo’s words and shook his head laughed. Waldo, a foreigner, sounded a little awkward, and using such words is really flattering.

Li Shimin said: “Waldo, you Persian country, really willing to send troops, and I, Great Tang, fought against Xia Country. “

“Yes! “

Valdo said resolutely: “Xia Country is powerful and must be contained.” If Xia Country is not contained, I am afraid that Xia Country will continue to expand. So in our Persian country, I am willing to send troops to assist Great Tang and fight against Xia Country. “

Li Shimin nodded said: “I have approved the request of Persia. But I hope you can fulfill your promise. Otherwise, you will offend my Great Tang, and you will not be able to bear the consequences. “

Waldo said: “Understand. “

Li Shimin instructed: “Fang Qing, you are responsible for drafting the edict and forming an alliance with the Persian nation.” In addition, you also give the Gunpowder formula, manufacturing materials and processes to Valdo. “

“Chen Zunzhi! “

Fang Xuanling answered immediately.

Waldo said: “Thanks Your Majesty, Emperor of Great Tang, don’t worry, my Persian Empire will not let you down.” “

Li Shimin said: “That’s good. “

Fang Xuanling saluted Li Shimin again, and then took Vardo with him. He gave the Gunpowder formula and raw material manufacturing method to Vardo, and Vardo went back to Nancheng where he lived. Location.

The house where Waldo lives is in Da’anfang in South City. He returned to the house and called the warrior who was with him, with an excited expression on his face, and said: “Kate, we got the Gunpowder. . I told the Emperor Great Tang that I came on behalf of the Persian nation. It was the Diplomacy of the Persian Empire that made the Small Official form an alliance with Great Tang on behalf of Persia, and Great Tang gave us the Gunpowder. Next, Persia and Great Tang fought Xia Country together. Therefore, Great Tang has given me the manufacturing formula and raw materials of Gunpowder. “

Kate is about thirty years old, blond, blue-eyed, square-faced, aquiline nose, and his eyes are slightly sunken. He gives people the feeling of being strong and strong. In Military there is strength. .

He is the warrior who protects Waldo.

Kate smiled and said: “Mr. Waldo, you are so smart. In this way, Castel Prince can increase his strength. If we want to reverse the situation, it will go well. “

Waldo said: “It is also thanks to the battle between Xia Country and Great Tang that we have a chance. “

In fact, the Persian Empire today has been divided.

The following Fiefdom monarchs are already in their own hands.

When Li Yuan was in power, the Persian kingdom The monarch of Kuss was the second, and the Persian Empire reached Peak again in his hands, which was quite prosperous. But with the killing of Kuss the second, the Persian Empire fell into civil strife. At this time, the Arab Empire, and The Eastern Roman Empire also ushered in the Heraclius dynasty of the Eastern Roman Empire.

Only the strength of the Persian Empire is declining.

It was his own when Cuzel II was killed. The son Kavard II rebelled, but the youngest son of Cousse II, Kasde, occupied a Fiefdom in the far east of the Persian Empire.

The age of Kasde , Twenty years away.

Very enterprising spirit.

And Castell has always been committed to restoring the glory of the Persian Empire, so that the Persian Empire can reproduce its former glory. Originally, Castel wanted to annex the orbit of Japan. Unfortunately, the appearance of Du Qi broke all of this.

Castel’s strength could not even annex the orbit of Japan, let alone the annexation of Japan. He has dealt with Du Qi, so he has never taken any action. It’s just that after Du Qi and Great Tang went to war, Castell sent his counselor, Valdo, to Great Tang Cháng’ān, and acted accordingly.

Val I’ve seen Gunpowder’s power more and learned that Great Tang also has such weapons. Therefore, he made a decisive request at this time, hoping to form an alliance with Great Tang in exchange for Great Tang’s Gunpowder.

On the one hand, Xia Country needs containment.

On the other hand, if Castell wants to reverse the decadence of the Persian Empire, reset the chaos, and even overthrow the rule of Kavard, Gunpowder is also needed. With Gunpowder equipped with the army, then Castel’s strength can also be greatly improved.

This is Waldo’s plan.

With a smile on Waldo’s face, he instructed: “Kate, you arrange Now we are ready to set off and return. The Western Regions are at war right now, and we must hurry back. But when Du Qi takes down Great Tang, after defeating Great Tang, I’m afraid he will also attack Prince Prince. We must hurry up and can’t delay any longer. “

Kate said resolutely: “Mr. Waldo, please rest assured, everything is ready. Action can be taken at any time. “

Valdo said: “You go to make arrangements, we will set off next. “

“Yes! “

Kate turned around to make arrangements after he got off.

In a short time, Waldo took Kate’s entire group and set off with more than 30 people. This is pretending to be one. A caravan, the team quickly left Chang’an City and headed west.
