King Yang kept his word.

After harvesting enough horses and beauties, the Tang army withdrew to the sea as fast as possible.

Anyway, Britain is a hellish place that is so poor, damp and cold, there is nothing of value for him at all, and it is not on Yang Feng's trade colonization line. His colonial strategy was very simple, that is, the Mediterranean line, from Gibraltar out of the Mediterranean Sea to the Americas, using the gold and silver in the hands of the Mayans to lure domestic merchants to the west, and then using this line as the main trunk to start dyeing yellow......

This is the inevitable result.

Because with the development of trade, there will definitely be a steady stream of Tang merchants heading west.

In the beginning, they would only settle in those few colonial strongholds and open businesses, but soon in order to facilitate trade, they would open businesses in the ports along the Mediterranean coast, and there would even be merchants like Mobil salesmen who relied on these ports to sell goods to the inland on both sides of the strait, as long as there was enough profit to be made, they would eventually do so, it was only a matter of time. And they would buy slaves, they would raise women, and they would even buy a night when they passed by a European village, and then their seeds would sprout in Europe, and maybe they would become the guests of some European monarch by virtue of their wealth, like the Rothschilds, and control the finances of a certain country to become their nobles.

In this way, the genes of the yellow race and the culture of the East continued to spread to the world of the white race.

Faith is also proliferating.

For example, the construction of holy shrines in those ports and the dispatch of missionaries to the holy shrines were to facilitate the Tang people to worship their gods, and with the Tang fleets cruising on the coasts of Europe and maintaining the ability to break through Rome at any time, the church could not have the courage to interfere, and if they dared to interfere, the Tang soldiers would directly enter the Lateran Palace.

This is the same as the methods used by the European colonists in the East.

The rest is a matter of time.

As for the conquest......

That's really not necessary, what's the use of breaking places like England? The poor and ignorant people who are completely as poor and ignorant as the wild tribes in Africa, except for the priests and even the nobles, there are few literate upper-class people, except for a few Yanmar that are difficult to see without washing and washing, Yang Feng really can't think of what he can get here! In that case, let them continue to sink in the mire of poverty and ignorance, in the darkness of the Middle Ages!

"Don't give them too much sunshine!"

Sitting in his own special cabin, King Yang looked out the glass window at London and muttered to himself.

At his feet, a little beauty who looked very much like Keira Knightley when she was a girl looked up blankly, and then looked at her distant hometown with the same blankness, two strings of tears fell immediately, and her pretty face washed by soap was full of sadness.

"Take her to the recreation room and teach her well!"

King Yang said as he stroked her long golden hair.

Her Royal Highness the princess next to her immediately stepped forward, pulled the girl up with a smile, and walked towards the door behind the latter in the latter's trembling, where the two maids who stood immediately opened the door, and the reflection of the countless mirrors behind the door swayed on the blue of the waterbed, as if the sun was shining on the sea, and there were two mermaids on the surface of the sea showing their seductive bodies......

King Yang's fleet did not move any further.

The mortality rate of seaborne horses was very high, and he had to return them as soon as possible.

Immediately after he began to sail back, this huge fleet along the coastline of Western Europe went south until the return to Gibraltar, at this time this fortress named by Yang Feng Zhenxi City had completed construction, relying on a large number of white men hired with pepper, and even transported a dozen terrifying fifty-pound cannons to the top of the hill battery, plus the fortress and port under the mountain, completely built into a steel fortress, not to mention this era, even in the eighteenth century, which is almost impossible to attack.

Yang Feng left a brigade here, eight other battleships, and set up a separate Zhenxi garrison and the Atlantic Fleet, mainly responsible for the protection of shipping routes in the western Mediterranean and the Atlantic.

Then he continued his return voyage.

A month and a half later, his fleet returned to Dragon City.

In Dragon City, he and Constantine V quickly signed an agreement to lease the islands of Malta and Crete, and after the latter learned through his daughter how Yang Feng swept away all the ghosts, snakes, and gods along the way, he immediately understood that he had no other choice, and as a smart man, he simply gave in. This is not bad for him, Yang Feng's fleet is stationed in these two places, then it means that the big cannibals in North Africa and the Middle East can no longer cross these two places to the north, Crete is the gate to the Aegean Sea, Malta Island is known as the crossroads of the Mediterranean, Yang Feng is stuck in these two places, then his territory in the Mediterranean is safe, although he is a little humiliated emotionally, but he not only did not suffer but benefited a lot.

In this way, Yang Feng's pearl chain was completed, and then two small detachments, as well as two garrisons arrived from Huaiyuan, also went to the two places to complete the reception and construction of the two places.

Yang Feng returned directly to Huaiyuan.

When he arrived in Huaiyuan, there were only four of his six nineteen-palm-high war horses left, and the death rate of this kind of thing was still quite high, in fact, including this batch, he had brought back a total of 2,000 European horses, including the Iberian horses that had been exchanged with Rahman before, all of which started at a height of one and a half meters and a shoulder. And before that, he has bred a large number of military horses of the same level as Arabian horses in the military horse farm in Broken Leaves, plus the genes of this batch of European horses, it is estimated that the height of the Anxi military horses can be improved in the future, and more importantly, he has an excellent breed of horses, which is very important.

In short, he can be regarded as a bumper harvest.

King Yang led his herd of horses from Huaiyuan to the east, arrived in Haixi, and inspected his oil industry by the way.

This is already a real oil city.

A large number of coolies recruited from Tianzhu are working hard in the stench of crude oil, accompanied by the sound of the overseer's whip, sending tanks of crude oil to the refinery, pouring them into the refinery, and using the remaining ones mixed with asphalt and diesel, which are actually considered heavy oil as fuel, the crude oil in the refining kettle is heated to boiling, and the steamed steam is condensed through the water-cooled pipeline, and finally becomes gasoline and kerosene. The gasoline is useless for the time being, and it will eventually be burned, and the only thing to sell is kerosene used as lamp oil, and it is also divided into two kinds, one is the direct use of the public, the only problem is that it is more smelly, but for ordinary people in this era, it can be lit on the line, who cares if it stinks or not, and it is not very smelly.

The other is deodorized, which is exclusively for the use of wealthy people, not only does not smell but also has a special aroma, even the Tang Palace now orders this.

Of course, the pollution here is also very bad.

The blue waves of the poor Caspian Sea can not be seen at least near Haixi City, the stench of crude oil fills the air, the sky is full of smoke containing poisonous substances all day long, the beautiful beaches of the original gold are full of oil, and the poor dead fish and dead birds are struggling in the oil, accusing the evils of capitalism, of course, this has nothing to do with Yang Feng, remembering the pure era that has passed, King Yang is not without sighs and sails to Suiyuan......

He doesn't live here anyway.

He landed in Suiyuan City, and then went south to Mashhad, which has been renamed Muhua City, the Persian king, who grew up in the Tang Dynasty and read poetry and books, gave all the Persian cities he ruled by Chinese names, and even the upper echelons of the Persian kingdom spoke Chinese, and a group of Zoroastrian elders were digging out their hearts to study the connection between the Zoroastrian gods and the Taoist gods......

Like the Roman gods and Greek gods, they thought it was just the same god in different languages.

Anyway, let's take their time!

In fact, it is like this from the river to Tianzhu now.

King Yang traveled north from here through the black desert and returned to the river, when he returned to the broken leaves, the three-year expedition to welcome the heavenly horse ended, and this time it was already the eighth year of the calendar, that is, the 773rd year of the Western Era, during the Yang Feng Yingtianma Li Li had just designed to get rid of his old friend, that is, the eunuch Yu Chaoen, who controlled the government, and the prime minister Yuan carried the main government, Guo Ziyi, and Li Guangbi were in charge of military power. At this time, if there is nothing to do in the Quartet, it can be regarded as a rise in the sea, at most, the feudal towns around the country are becoming more and more independent, such as the Annan Jiedu that made Gao Xianzhi have not entered the dynasty for a full twenty years, and for example, the Heshuo Domain led by Shi Siming is fundamentally foreign, and of course it is King Yang who has not entered the dynasty for more than ten years......

Well, King Yang is going to enter the court.

In July of the eighth year of the Tang Dynasty, Anxi, Beiting, and the three towns in the river were envoys, and Yang Feng, the king of Deng, entered the court to offer heavenly horses to the tomb of the Emperor Taishang.

Taereung.

"The Emperor, the minister has returned to you!"

King Yang shouted sadly.

Behind him, four giant war horses with a shoulder height of one meter nine were lined up, and behind these four horses, dozens of war horses with a shoulder height of one meter eight were also arranged, and then behind were hundreds of war horses with a shoulder height of one meter seven, all of which together formed a triangular formation, as if they were about to charge.

Yang Feng's entry into the dynasty did not change the fact that the Tang Dynasty was divided, fortunately, with his deterrence, no feudal town dared to rebel, but the contradiction between the feudal town and the imperial court was inevitable after all, just after Yang Feng returned to the Western Regions with Tianma, because Gao Xianzhi, He Luguang and others controlled the maritime trade, resulting in the Guangzhou City Shipping Division was in vain, and the financial benefits were all into the hands of the gentry everywhere The imperial court did not have the slightest benefit, and at the instigation of Yuan Zai, Li Jiao recruited Gao Xianzhi into the court. Gao Xianzhi said that he was sick, and then the Annan army blocked the roads through Annan, Lingnan Jiedu made He Luguang, Qianzhong Jiedu made Zhao Guozhen and Fujian and Zhejiang Jiedu made Li Gao on the table, and Annan received the barbarians, and the non-Gao Gong could not suppress it, so he asked the imperial court to withdraw his order.

Yuan Zai insisted on recruiting Gao Xianzhi into the court.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Zai was slashed by an assassin on the way to the court, and almost died with a knife, but he was unable to serve because of his injuries, and Li Siye replaced his director, and Li Siye personally sent a letter to Gao Xianzhi, confirming that Gao Xianzhi was indeed sick and could not travel far away.

This incident officially opened the prelude to the feudal town's confrontation with the imperial court.

Not to rebel, but to assassinate.

Only a year later, because of the discovery of a large gold mine at Li Zhongchen, Yuan Zai again enlisted Li Zhongchen into the dynasty and abolished the Ziqing Festival, the Ziqing army mutinied, refused to enter the country, Yuan Zai transferred Xuzhou, Yunzhou and Wei Bo and other soldiers to Ziqing, followed by the Xuzhou army general Li Zhongchen to buy the mutiny and the Daming Palace, in the same month, the thieves in Chang'an City set fire to the Daming Palace, Li Jiao was frightened and degraded Yuan Zai to Yang Juan as the phase, Wei Bo Jiedu made Yin Ziqi on the table to defend Li Zhongchen, and at the same time the Yunzhou army was bribed by Li Zhongchen from Muling Pass and defeated, Li Jiao had no choice but to recall the envoy.

King Deng sent an envoy to rebuke Li Zhongchen.

Li Zhongchen then crossed the sea to destroy the state of Tamna, and used his land to present a map to the imperial court for Tanzhou.

King Deng gave up with his ability to expand the land.

This incident made the feudal towns understand how to make King Deng satisfied, and King Deng was satisfied that they didn't need to be really afraid of the imperial court, and then Shi Siming led the towns of Heshuo to the north out of Yuguan, and the Pinglu army partnered to sweep the Khitan and Xi Ministry, Shi Siming and Hou Xiyi divided their land and placed the state county, Wei Bo, Chengde, Xiangwei and other towns took their people into slavery, and the five towns and 100,000 troops swept through Huangshui, wiped out the Khitan and Xi Ministry, and the Khitan and Xi chieftains were exterminated in the imperial court with no guilt, and the imperial court sent an envoy to blame Shi Siming, and Deng Wang praised his contribution to expanding the territory through the new newspaper.

The court gave up.

This set a precedent for King Deng to adjudicate the contradictions between the imperial court and the feudal town.

After Huainan, Ziqing, Xu Si and Huaixi and even Chen Xu and other two Huai feudal towns crossed the imperial court, led by Li Gao, the envoy of Fujian and Zhejiang, and crossed the sea to destroy Silla, and because Silla was too poor, the newspaper run by King Deng publicized that there was a lot of silver in the mountains of Izumo in the Wa Kingdom, so he crossed the sea to attack the Wa Kingdom and occupied Izumo and other places. Soon, with the help of the miners sent by King Deng, the giant silver mountain was found, and the towns quickly set up silver mining companies to exchange part of the shares for the silver smelting technology of King Deng, and arrested a large number of Japanese people as slaves and began to mine silver mines.

Of course, there is still nothing to do with the court.

At this point, the craze of feudal towns from all over the country forming groups to go out to colonize officially began, and soon even those feudal towns that listened to the imperial court could not sit still.

After all, this is gold and silver!

They either plundered on their own, or joined a certain side with an army, in short, squeezed into the great cause of colonial plunder, and even the wealthy families in Guanzhong ran to King Deng to ask King Deng to take him to the west to make a fortune, and a large number of people in Guanzhong continued to embark on the journey to the Western Regions, and even King Deng also rebuilt the road between Yumen Pass and Chang'an and made a postal carriage. The merchants of Jiannan even braved the hardships and dangers to cross the old land of Tubo and enter Tianzhu, especially under the contact of Zhao Guozhen, the envoy of the Jiedu in Qianzhong, Jiannan, Jiangnan Xidao, and Shannan, which were feudal towns that had not had the opportunity to expand overseas because they were in the interior, formed a coalition army to go south and enter the country of Pi. Although the casualties were not small, they fought all the way to the middle of the Pyu Kingdom, forcing the Pyu Kingdom to sue for peace, and then ceded all the land on the north bank of the Irrawaddy River, and exchanged shares for the help of King Deng, and found a huge gem mine in the newly occupied land.

At this time, King Deng's fleet discovered an overseas continent in the far west, and the news that it was full of gold and silver detonated the colonial enthusiasm of the entire Tang Dynasty.

But it was at this time that the anger of the imperial court finally broke out.

After the death of Emperor Daizong, Li Shi, who was newly enthroned, was promoted by the nobles and eunuchs who did not have the colonial dividends in the imperial court, and forcibly ordered his son Shi Chaoyi to enter the court. Everyone in the feudal towns around the country is in danger, the three towns of Heshuo and Ziqing are closed to protect themselves, the imperial court troops besiege Hengwei and Wei prefectures, two months later, the Xiangwei army mutinied, the forbidden army was defeated from Hebei, Chen Xu Jiedu made Tian Chengsi to Bianzhou Jiedu to make the fornication of the rebels as the reason for the abduction and sent out of the country, and since the Bianzhou Song Dynasty stayed, according to Bianzhou, Xu Yun and the two towns of the army were defeated again in Mulingguan.

The Great Kanto Rebellion.

Li Shi once again increased the forbidden army by 100,000.

At the same time, the forbidden army continued to recruit troops in Guanzhong, and the people in Guanzhong were busy following King Deng to make a fortune.

In the third year of construction, the people of Chang'an changed.

Because the arrears of the imperial court have not been repaid, the bank refuses to continue to borrow from the imperial court, and the prime minister Lu Qikuo has rich money for finance, and all those who have more than 10,000 yuan of wealth are left with 10,000 guan and the rest are handed over to the imperial court for calculation, and the imperial court will return them with taxes in the future. This move completely detonated the public resentment that had accumulated for a long time, the people beat Xue Cui to death, gathered the crowd to storm the prime minister's mansion, Lu Qi fled over the wall in embarrassment, Duzhi Zhao Zan was seriously injured, and the forbidden army was arrested that night as the leader of the chaotic party, and the chaotic people clashed with the forbidden army. The traitors in the city instigated and set fire to take the opportunity to start robbing the nobles, Chang'an was in chaos, some people rushed into the palace in the chaos, Li Shi fled from Chang'an in a panic and fled to Fengtian, followed by a large number of officials and nobles to follow and fled, the next day Chang'an had no owner, and the chaotic people were afraid of revenge in the future and were unwilling to welcome back the emperor, the people gathered in the father-in-law of King Deng, who had already sent to the former prime minister Li Siye in front of the mansion, and asked Li Siye to sue King Deng on his behalf.

Li Siye had no choice but to go to Fengtian in person to explain the situation to Li Shi, who issued an order to exempt the people of Chang'an from their crimes, but the people still insisted on inviting King Deng to come.

The state assassins also played to invite King Deng.

Li Shi had no choice but to edict King Deng to enter the dynasty, three months later King Deng entered the dynasty, personally escorted Li Shi back to Chang'an, and at the same time ordered the towns to return to the town, dare to disobey those who conspire against the theory, all the towns were ordered, King Deng to Lu Qi caused chaos to behead it, blamed Shi Chaoyi for the first chaos, Shi Chaoyi committed suicide for fear of crime, King Deng was initially determined by the chaos, and was retained by the people of Guanzhong, had to stay in the court and add the Shang Shu order, the honorific title Shang Father, the Tang Dynasty thus began the era of Deng Wang's auxiliary government. This era lasted until forty years later, during which all state affairs were decided by King Deng, and the emperor sat in the palace like a puppet, and finally after the death of Tang Muzong, the crown prince Li Zhan refused to inherit the throne, and resolutely took the throne of King Deng, and after some pushing, King Deng ascended the throne.

But the country name has not changed, and it is still Datang.

After King Deng ascended the throne, the first edict was to withdraw all the feudal towns in the world, and each town was allowed to enter the court, and no one dared to disobey the edict.

Since then, the Tang Dynasty began the era of Emperor Yang Feng, and this era has continued......
