After all, Yang Feng still failed to fulfill Li Longji's wish to see Tianma alive, and in the spring of the second year when he returned to Broken Leaves, Li Longji finished his life in loneliness.

He gave all the palace maids, eunuchs and musicians and maiko who accompanied him in his later years to Princess Huaihua, who was far away in Broken Leaves.

Of course, it was actually given to Yang Feng.

I don't know why, he also gave a large number of bank stocks in his hands to Yang Zhi, the cousin of the king of Nanyang County, it is said that when the king of Nanyang entered the dynasty, his cousin had repeatedly sang and danced for the emperor to relieve boredom, not only him, including Gao Lishi, who committed suicide in Langzhou after learning the news of his death soon after, also gave Yang Zhi the bank stocks in his hands, and after adding these two, Yang Feng and his cousin held more than 70% of the bank stocks......

Well, what Li Longji has in his hands is the share that should have belonged to the Datang treasury.

Li Fuguo searched for five years but couldn't find it.

It can be seen that the Emperor is the Emperor after all.

And Li Heng only lived ten days longer than his father, ten days after Li Longji's death, His Majesty the Tang Emperor also followed the Emperor Taishang, and the crown prince Li Yu was the original Li Jiao to inherit the throne, of course, this is known to the people outside, in fact, it was a coup d'état in the palace, Li Fuguo and Empress Zhang fought for the throne because Li Heng was seriously ill, and Li Heng, who was already terminally ill, was angry and frightened to death.

And this coup d'état at the highest level of the Tang Dynasty did not end with the death of Li Heng.

Immediately after Empress Zhang was killed by Li Fuguo, Li Yu succeeded to the throne and co-opted Li Fuguo's confidant Cheng Yuanzhen, who controlled the forbidden army, and then relieved Li Fuguo of power, and sent assassins to assassinate Li Fuguo, and Cheng Yuanzhen was the head of the eunuchs, and because Cheng Yuanzhen and Yang Feng had old grudges, worried that Yang Feng would take the opportunity to kill himself when he entered the court, he sent a messenger to block the Nanyang King who had arrived at the Yumen Pass with a holy decree, and was ready to enter the court to worship the Emperor Taishang, and the King of Nanyang was angry and seized the Yumen Pass with soldiers and called him the minister of the Tang Dynasty and the minister of the eunuch, and the court did it for itself, The land west of Yumen Pass will no longer be under the orders of the eunuchs.

Hexi Jiedu made the servant Gu Huaien stick to Jiuquan and did not dare to come out, but fortunately, the king of Nanyang was loyal to the Tang Dynasty after all, but he left his troops to guard the Yumen Pass, seized the land of the four states of Yixi Guasha, and then returned to the broken leaves after crying to the emperor.

So far, the Western Regions has become a country of its own.

Of course, Cheng Yuanzhen didn't dare to stimulate Yang Feng more, on the contrary, he also let Li Yu unprecedentedly crown Yang Feng as King Deng, this is not the king of the county, but similar to the kings of the late Sui Dynasty who attached to the Tang Dynasty in the early Tang Dynasty, and it was also at the level of Du Fuwei, which has never been sealed since the Tang Dynasty dominated the world, and also pushed the boat down the river to assign the four states of Ixi Guasha to the envoy of the Anxi Festival, so as to show favor to Yang Feng and recognize his rule over the Western Regions, anyway, for Cheng Yuanzhen, as long as Yang Feng does not enter the court, then there is nothing that cannot be given, Aren't they just a few small states that aren't worth mentioning? If he wasn't afraid that Yang Feng would raid Chang'an, what if he gave him the entire Hexi?

At this point, the land of the Western Regions was completely separated from the imperial court and became Yang Feng's own territory.

In the next two years, Yang Feng completely disrupted the original administrative system of the Western Regions, and the three towns of the Western Regions were all reorganized, and three armies were set up in the name of Anxi, each army had two cavalry infantry brigades, two archery brigades and one heavy cavalry brigade, with a total of 75,000 men in the three armies, plus a naval division based in Suiyuan City.

In addition, in addition to several subject states in the river and the green mountains, the original Anxi and Beiting towns protected by the Qiuzi, Khotan and other subject countries were all changed to counties, and the people of all countries were included in the subordinate register as well as the original Tang people, and the original chiefs were still the county commanders, and the court titles that these chieftains each owned were still retained, but the original meaningless governor's mansions were all cancelled, and they were replaced by the township soldiers directly under the Deng Wang shogunate, that is, the reserves, Young and middle-aged people everywhere, whether Han Chinese, Sogdians, or other nationalities, were all naturalized as Han nationals and served as reserves.

In addition, compulsory education has been implemented in the local area, and all school-age children, both boys and girls, have entered schools to learn Chinese characters and Chinese, including the herdsmen on the grasslands, and other scripts have been abolished.

The textbook was written by Deng Wang.

Currency, weights and measures, and writing are all unified, even the surname is unified, and the surname Hu is no longer used, and the surname Han is used no matter what ethnic group in the territory.

In fact, at this time, the vast majority of them were already like this, Yang Feng was only determined in the form of law, the vast majority of the Western Regions were Sogdian, and all the Sogdian tribes had their own Han surnames, and a small number of Turkic nomads had no surnames at all, and because the emperor of the Tang Dynasty loved to give them surnames, they were originally surnamed Li, and there was also Yang Feng's surname Yang, that is, the unification of language and writing was more troublesome, but because of the mixed living of Hu and Han and compulsory education, it would not take long to complete it through time.

In short, in this way, Yang Feng turned all the lands within the territory of the Tang Dynasty into counties, except for the Zhaowu countries in the river, the two mountain states of the Green Mountains, and the Tang vassal states of Tocharo, Gaofu and Persia.

There was no rebellion against him.

Including those Sogdian kings, they also did not resist, and the strongest King Qiuzi didn't care about his transformation into Taishou, after all, King Yang's first army was Bai Xiaode, and it was useless to be dissatisfied, who would dare to resist Yang Feng here? Just close your eyes and talk to him!

At the same time as the completion of the integration of the Western Regions, the Anxi Army sailed in Suiyuan City, transported the first army across the Caspian Sea and landed in the area of Baku, and then took less than half a year to completely conquer the southern foot of the Caucasus Mountains, and established Haixi County with Baku as the core, while Armenia became a vassal of the Tang Dynasty Equestrian and Pakistan, which were ruled by the two major Armenian families, the Mamikonian family and the Bagratuni family, respectively. Of course, their Han surnames were also changed to Ma and Ba respectively, because Yang Feng expelled the Great Cannibals and protected their faith, and the Armenians were still very happy to become a subject state of the Tang Dynasty, and the same road from Hercynian County to the Black Sea was also built by the captured Great Cannibal slaves, and this road could pass through four-wheeled carriages and lead all the way to the port of Podi on the Black Sea.

The latter, along with the surrounding large tracts of land, also became Huaiyuan County, which was directly under the Tang Dynasty, and then relied on those big slave-eating slaves to start building a real fortress-level city.

A large bastion.

In addition, there are ports, shipyards even include 5,000 Tang troops and more than 1,000 craftsmen, all stationed in Huaiyuan, and then began to cut down trees to prepare materials to build a dock, this project lasted four years, during which King Yang also led the army south to Tianzhu expedition to Xinde in the lower reaches of the Indus River, together with the servant army of Tianzhu countries, bloodied this land polluted by the Great Cannibals, and turned Karachi and the surrounding large areas into counties directly under the Tang Dynasty, as for the rest of the reward to Kashmira and Qu Zheluo, who followed him to do this thing, Similarly, these two small countries also became vassals of the Tang Dynasty and became part of the territory of the Tang Dynasty under the protection of the Anxi Army.

A Tang army of 5,000 men and 1,000 craftsmen were also stationed here, and they also began to build fortresses.

Seven years later, Huaiyuan County.

"King Ma Muhua of Equestria see King Deng."

"Ba Xiangli, the king of Pakistan, see King Deng!"

In the midst of the singing, on the stone slab of the pier of this large fortress, two white men in purple robes led a large number of hundreds of people who were also wearing Tang official uniforms behind them, bowed down tremblingly, and shouted loudly in a somewhat stiff Chinese.

"The two of you are free to be flat!"

Yang Feng said lightly on the throne.

There was still a worm girl beside him, but at this time the image of the two of them was even more shocking, because they were no longer giant elephants, but a moving palace, and it was also a palace that did not need to be pulled or carried by people, and it was completely self-moving, with black wheels on both sides, and they could roll forward on the road surface of Sanhetu. The mobile palace is actually a golden dragon made of silver metal that can be used as a mirror, studded with precious stones, and dances in the clouds. Yang Fenghe still has a colorful light of the insect girl, or the holy maiden is sitting in an auspicious light, the light does not come from the sun, because it is a cloudy day, but the entire mobile palace itself is releasing holy white light.

At their feet, there was also a pair of birds that were so beautiful that they seemed to come from the divine realm, showing off their brilliant feathers from time to time.

Well, those were just two birds of bliss.

And Yang Feng's mobile palace is just a truck modified by Xiao Qian who gave him the engine and parts, and then he assembled it with his own hands, which is made of aviation aluminum alloy, which is filled with a large number of light bulbs and spotlights at all angles above his head, which together create the effect of shadowless lights, plus the reflection of gemstones, and the smoke of cigarettes, creating a hazy and holy image of the gods.

In recent years, Yang Feng's main job is to pretend to be a god and fool the masses.

Of course, it works absolutely well.

In front of them, these Armenians who believe in Yahweh were shocked to the ground, as far as their poor imagination is concerned, the gods that can be imagined are like this, although Yang Feng does not force them to change their faith, but with the rapid increase in trade with the Byzantines in Huaiyuan County, the number of Han people is increasing, and the Taoist shrine in the Western Regions is built, this kind of faith from the East has also spread among them to a certain extent, and in the mouths of those missionaries, Yang Feng, the saint and the insect lady, the saint, have always been the spokesperson of Haotian God in the world, The Tang Emperor, on the other hand, was a secular monarch.

Armenians have heard of this system to a greater or lesser extent, and they understand it as well, and now the presence of saints and saints has made the faith from the East more real.

Patriarch Constantine certainly did not have this pomp.

"This is our city?"

Yang Feng looked up at the city in front of him and said.

The layout of the castle is similar to that of the Dutch city of Batavia, guarded by a bastion wall, a fifty-meter-wide river runs through the middle, and on both sides of the river are stone and cement docks, and the building materials are mined and fired upstream and transported by boat, from here there are 200 miles of waterway to the east in the non-freezing season, but there are still more than 1,000 miles of land from Haixi to here. This took four years, tired tens of thousands of slaves to build the Sanhe soil road connected the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea, from the river and even from the Tang Dynasty inland all kinds of goods were continuously transported to Suiyuan, and then transported through the Caspian Sea to the northern Khazar Khanate and here, here to the west to Byzantium, and even directly into the Don River, into the Danube, a year ago the first merchant ship full of goods from the East has arrived in Byzantium, this year one by one to fly the dragon hugging the sun and the moon flag respectively arrived in Varna, Constanta, It even reached Athens by entering the Aegean Sea through Constantinople.

The population of the region increased dramatically due to the increase in trade, after all, the wealth of the whole West was converging on this port, and the first merchant ship to reach Constantinople brought back a full fifty thousand gold coins, the same amount that was changed by the Khazars or Elamites twice.

Gold is insane.

In just six years, it has gone from a small fishing village of a few hundred people to a trading center on the Black Sea.

On both sides of the river are newly built shops, inns, taverns, brothels, bathhouses, merchants of all colors speaking various languages, fulfilling their dreams in this city of miracles, and those merchants in Tang costumes, and those Tang soldiers wearing half-body plate armor and carrying horizontal swords, show the identity of the master of the city.

"Good, you're all doing a great job!"

Yang Feng nodded and said with satisfaction.

The Huaiyuan Taishou in front of him and the generals of the Tang Army's Huaiyuan Garrison Mansion hurriedly thanked the king for his appreciation.

"This is our warship?"

Immediately afterwards, Yang Feng turned his gaze to the river and said.

There twelve battleships lined up, but these latest warships were different from both the Fu ship and the bird ship, they were all very large, even larger than the thousand-ton Fu ship, they were not the most common hard sails on the merchant ships and warships of the Tang Army, but Western-style soft sails, on the three towering masts, a huge white soft sail was rising, making them look like white hills. And unlike those warships that use trebuchets and bed crossbows, these warships do not see a single trebuchet, nor a bed crossbow or repeater, but on both sides of the ship, there are two more layers of windows on both sides of the ship, and each warship has more than fifty such windows, and the windows can be faintly seen, one by one, black holes and holes.

This is the crystallization of Yang Feng's seven years of hard work, his new battleships, the first batch of twelve, each with fifty-six guns, because there is no need to face any battleships, these cannons are all medium caliber, basically equivalent to eighteen pounds, twelve pounds, and even nine pounds.

Of course, that's enough.

After all, their enemies are nothing more than small boats that use bows and arrows and jump gangs to fight, in fact, at this time, the European and Great Food warships are estimated to be unable to hold even a twelve-pounder gun, not to mention that all the sailors still have the latest flintlock pistols in their hands, and there are small fur machines on the deck.

"Very well, tell the brothers, it's time to set sail!"

King Yang said with a cruel smile.
