The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Any change must have blood. If there is no blood, then this change will not be thorough enough. The land around Xueyantuo's court has always been the core of the Khan. Except for himself, no one else can do it. Establish your own power here, so it is indeed not a simple matter to make this place submit.

From seven o'clock in the evening to ten o'clock the next morning, the screams did not stop. Of course, they did not appear around Li Xiang's tent. Bayannur knew this very well. Many of them who went far away were unwilling to submit, so according to Li Xiang's order, Bayan Zhuoer could only cut them down.

Faced with the abuse from the leader of the Xueyantuo tribe, Bayannur felt very sad at first. After all, he was helping foreigners suppress his own tribe. But thinking about what Xueyantuo Khan did, we have reached this point. It was all forced by them. If they didn't take away all our food and livestock, how could we go to the Tang Dynasty?

Thinking about what we have seen and heard along the way, we don’t know what Li Xiang will be like in the future, but at least he can distribute disaster relief materials to the people and allow the people to continue to live. This is much better than Xue Yantuo’s Khan .

Bayan Zhuoer has been telling himself that he needs to live, he needs to live well, and his family members must also live well. If he wants to achieve this goal, he must fulfill Li Xiang's order. If Li Xiang's order cannot be fulfilled, then he will be the one lying on the ground. In order to prevent himself from lying on the ground, more people must lie on the ground.

After a night of bloody suppression of the twenty-six major tribes around Xueyantuo's court, the new tribal leaders all expressed their smiles towards the Tang Dynasty. Of course, more than 700 people died in one night. This thing is not Li Xiang would never tell others about these things that would appear in any history books. All the things recorded in history books are the best things.

For example, when the King of the Tang Dynasty arrived, the local people welcomed him warmly. They all joined the Tang Dynasty voluntarily. Because of their joining, we spent a huge price and transported a large amount of grain, tea, and salt. Well, these things are relatively popular goods even in Datang.

Many local people were unconvinced, but under the persuasion of the tribal elders, they all knelt in front of the Tang army. If there was even the slightest hint of resistance, the Tang army would kill them without hesitation. Troubled times require the use of heavy scriptures.

Of course, there are certain benefits to kneeling down. At least for a period of time in the future, you don’t have to worry about food. Moreover, the imperial court has also set up three trading markets on the grassland. You can go to the trading market with your things at home. In exchange for what you need.

This is what people on the grassland have always been eagerly looking forward to. Except for cattle, horses and livestock, everything else on the grassland needs to be exchanged with the Central Plains dynasty. However, this kind of market is often closed because the relationship between the two countries is not good. Now There is no need to worry about this, we are also from the Tang Dynasty now.

Li Xiang has already promised them in public. From the time you join the Tang Dynasty, as long as you abide by the law and pay taxes according to regulations, then your interests will also be protected by the Datang Army. Once something happens, the Datang Army will I will still make the decision for you.

When they did not receive food, 100% of the Xueyantuo people scolded Li Xiang. After they received the minimum living food, this proportion dropped to 70%, and the 30% who had full stomachs no longer insulted.

After they have exchanged the daily necessities they need in the trading market, it is estimated that this proportion will drop to 50%. After they have tasted the benefits in three to five years, this proportion will drop to less than 40%. As for the remaining 30%, Li Xiang is powerless. It is quite difficult to achieve this ratio. After all, many people are older and already have a fixed image in their minds. Young people still want to change. It is too difficult to change these elderly people.

During the past few days stationed here, assassinations occurred almost every day. Of course, because the guards around Li Xiang were relatively capable, these people did not even enter the inner circle. The reason why they were still willing to do this was because I want Li Xiang to know that the resistance on the grassland has never stopped.

On the one hand, Li Xiang stepped up to suppress these resistance forces. On the other hand, he also sent food to some poor people, and even sent them lambs and calves, so that they would have hope in the coming year. When these people had hope, When the time comes, they won't draw their swords at all times.

As for the selection of Li Xiang as the Protector of Beiting, it was left to the imperial court. He was only responsible for opening up territory. As for the placement of local officials, it had to be done by people from the imperial court. This was almost a tacit understanding between the two parties. , if Li Xiang delegates it himself, the court's face will indeed be lost.

"Are you going to be the Protector of the Beiting Protectorate?"

The son in front of him was once Li Shimin's most proud son, but now Li Shimin didn't want to see him. When he heard him express his wishes, Li Shimin couldn't believe it even more.

"Returning to my father, yes."

King Wu Li Ke has recovered very well, and he does not look injured. But his request made many people dumbfounded. Even if you have suffered a setback, you are still the emperor's son, even if you have to die. If you go to your fiefdom, you will never go to the northern prairie. Your fiefdom is where we Han people live. When you get there, you will still be a high-ranking prince. But if you go to the northern prairie, your fate... …

In addition to the suicides of local people, people may not be able to adapt to the local environment. In this era, the natural environment in various places is very harsh, and if you are not acclimated to the soil and water, it is very likely to kill you. Moreover, many people are very superstitious. There may be some connection between King Wu Li Ke and the northern grassland. Otherwise, why would he come back half-dead from there? If that was your blessed place, how could you get hurt there?

Li Shimin looked at his son with some horror. Because of Li Xiang's arrival, several sons began to compete, but letting King Wu go to the north to be the guardian was something Li Shimin never expected.
