Chapter 916: The King of Shu surrenders

In the southwest, Tubo supported Tuyuhun, stationed troops in its territory, and while defending the north, he sent generals to lead the elite to invade Xichuan of the Tang Dynasty, wanting to go deep into the east, change the situation of passive beating, and transfer the battlefield to the territory of the Tang Dynasty, so as to reduce the losses of the Tibetan tribes.

Yang Yue knew that Tubo's ambitions would not die, and after the new king reunified the tribes, he would gradually expand outward and invade the Tang Dynasty again, but he didn't expect the other party to change his strategy so quickly!

Fortunately, the Tang Dynasty is also rising, the Tang Army, which was undisciplined and poorly armed in the past, has changed its appearance after several years of foreign wars, and its armed forces have become stronger one after another, and it can fight against Tibet!

Moreover, in order to eliminate Longyou, Tuyuhun, Tubo, and the Tang Dynasty garrisoned heavy troops in the northwest and southwest, Shu alone, the veteran He Hengrui and other generals have led 100,000 elites.

Since the Tang Dynasty dared to send heavy troops to the west, it was naturally not afraid of Tubo, and Tuyuhun counterattacked.

They vainly tried to transfer the battlefield to the territory of Datang, just like a fool's dream!

In the council hall, the atmosphere is solemn, the ministers offer advice, the king of Chu, Gao Xiaoyun, Li Xuanqi, Wo Longsheng, Guo Huaiyuan, Zhao Xuanhu and other generals, when discussing government affairs with Yang Yue, the king of Shu took a Sassanid merchant to walk into the council hall from the outside!

The King of Chu, Gao Xiaoyun, Li Xuanqi, Wo Longsheng and other officials, seeing the King of Shu and the Sassanid merchants, looked shocked and surprised, and turned their heads to look at Yang Yue sitting on the dragon chair!

The king of Shu once plotted rebellion, and colluded with Agus, many crimes, Xinzhu is difficult to write, if it were not for the emperor's scruples about brotherhood, cherish the talent of the king of Shu, and imprisoned him in the palace of the king of Shu for a long time, the king of Shu was executed by Ling Chi at the noon gate.

For a long time, the king of Shu was imprisoned in the palace of the king of Shu, the forbidden army was closely guarded, without the emperor's order, without the documents of the criminal department, he would never have the opportunity to step out of the palace of the king of Shu.

At this moment, he suddenly appeared in the council hall with a foreigner, either with the permission of Wolongsheng, the secretary of the criminal department, or with the emperor's permission.

Gao Xiaoyun, King of Chu, and Li Xuanqi noticed the surprised look on Wolongsheng's face, and probably guessed why the King of Shu suddenly appeared in the council.

In the dragon chair, Yang Yue was secretly surprised when he saw the figure of the King of Shu, and the time for the King of Shu to hesitate to make a decision was far less than he expected.

In this way, after thinking about it for a few days, the King of Shu has already understood the affairs of the Tang Dynasty in the West, and may have been shocked by the empire that exists in the West!

Anyway, today, when he came to the palace, it has been proved that the King of Shu has an idea!

The king of Chu bowed slightly to the king of Shu, not daring to have too much to do with him, after all, they all had criminal records, and it was not easy to get Yang Yue's forgiveness, and the king of Chu did not dare to joke with his life.

Gao Xiaoyun, Li Xuanqi, Guo Huaiyuan, Zhao Xuanhu, Wo Longsheng and other officials turned around and saluted the King of Shu.

The King of Shu looked steady, slowly walked into the center of the council hall, bowed down and saluted Yang Yue: "Weichen Yang Xiao greets the emperor, long live my emperor!"

This worship surprised everyone in the council.

Since Yang Yue ascended the throne, he has been in contact with the King of Shu many times, this is the first time he has bowed to Yang Yue in front of the public, Yang Yue was surprised, and the King of Chu, and Gao Xiaoyun and other officials also felt the move of the King of Shu!

In Chang'an City, who doesn't know that the King of Shu is arrogant and looks down on Yang Yue, and he doesn't put Yang Yue in his eyes, but today the King of Shu came to the palace and gave Yang Yue a great salute.

In the dragon chair, Yang Yue bowed slightly, and Lang smiled: "King Shu, come today, could it be that you already know about the Western Regions?"

Hearing this, Yang Yue had not yet spoken, and Gao Xiaoyun stepped forward and asked: "Your Majesty, when you suddenly mentioned the matter of the Western Regions, did you know in advance that the countries of the Western Regions had sent missions to Chang'an?"

Gao Xiaoyun, as a Zhongshu Ling, is in charge of the six departments of the court, even if he has no real power, he is the head of a hundred officials, and one person is above ten thousand!

I was a little involved in the affairs of the Western Regions, and when I heard Yang Yue mention it, I couldn't help but ask curiously!

"The Tang Dynasty has not yet dealt with the affairs of Tibet, the Turks, and the Western Regions, and the whip is beyond the reach of the whip, a few days ago, I only talked to the King of Shu, and I have not yet made a decision!" Yang Yuelang said with a smile.

When the king of Shu hesitated, he said to Yang Yue: "Your Majesty, today Weichen came to discuss the affairs of the Western Regions with the emperor!" As he spoke, he took out the map drawn by several merchants from his bosom and presented it to the imperial eunuch Gao Heng!

Gao Heng stepped down from the jade steps, took the painting scroll, turned around and returned to the dragon chair, and respectfully presented it to Yang Yue!

Slowly unfolding the scroll and spreading it on the dragon case, Yang Yue lowered his head to browse the map, noticed the map and the general description of the Western countries, and determined the location of the other party.

couldn't help but look up at the King of Shu and said, "King Shu, what do you think about the affairs of the Western Regions?"

At present, the Tang Dynasty has not skipped the Western Regions, even if the palace collects the map of the Western Regions, the farthest is only to Broken Leaf City, and there is no map presented by the King of Shu, the territory is vast, and the location of the countries in the Western Regions has been roughly marked, and it has arrived in the Frankish Empire!

It can be seen that in the past few days, the King of Shu has spent a lot of energy on the affairs of the Western Regions.

Hearing this, the King of Shu said loudly: "Your Majesty, in recent days, Weichen has spent time and learned from ancient books and historical materials and the mouths of merchants from the Western Regions who came to Chang'an that there are not only Turkic and Tibetan in the western part of the Tang Dynasty.

There was still the Sassanid Dynasty in the Turkic West, the Great Eclipse in the West of Tibet, and the Tianzhu in the South, and the Chambantine and Frankish empires in the extreme west.

The existence of these powerful enemies is beyond the expectations of the ministers, and at the same time, the ministers in the court and the people of the Tang Dynasty are also unaware of the existence of a powerful empire in the west and south of the Tang Dynasty.

In addition, Weichen felt that there were many problems with the emperor's arrangement on the Western Front."

At this moment, Gao Xiaoyun, King of Chu, Li Xuanqi, Wo Longsheng, Guo Huaiyuan, and Zhao Xuanhu suddenly heard the report of the King of Shu, if they didn't understand the character of the King of Shu and knew that the King of Shu would not talk nonsense, otherwise, he suddenly heard the report of the King of Shu and learned that there were many powerful empires outside the Western Regions, and he would directly knock the King of Shu out of the political hall.

Among them, many officials knew that there were many states in the Western Regions, but compared with the Tang Dynasty, the strength was very different, and it was not enough to challenge the majesty of the Tang Dynasty, so how could they dare to call it an empire?

Moreover, the emperor has always been good at war, and in recent years, the Tang Dynasty has never failed in foreign wars, so how can there be many problems in the war against Tubo?

Gao Xiaoyun turned to stare at the King of Shu and asked: "Lord Wang, the matter of the Western Regions is not the top priority of the Tang Dynasty, the Battle of Tubo, General Wei and General Yan led the army to fight, and waved their troops south from Longyou, they will definitely threaten Tubo, General He personally led 100,000 elite troops to Xichuan, and Tubo sent elites to the east, can he defeat General He?"

"Yes, the Tang army fought against Tibet, did not achieve a great victory, but it was not defeated, the two sides continued to fight, I believe that soon the generals on the front line will achieve victory and send back good news!" Li Xuanqi also did not approve of the proposal of the King of Shu, and he was inwardly opposed to the King of Shu entering and leaving the court and regaining power.
