Death, which refers to the brain-dead behavior of not knowing the severity, ignoring the danger, and seeking its own death, is ridiculed in most contexts - if you don't die, you won't die.

But in today's era, in an era when there is no international law, no international justice, and no international organizations, to die by the side of a superpower, the Tang Empire, is really looking for death, and even if there are those international organizations, they are just vases, just decorations, and have no practical effect at all.

So Tuyuhun's behavior is just looking for death, speaking of which, this is still a premeditated and designed conspiracy to induce Tuyuhun to step on the road to death, the leader is Du Ruhui, and the participant is a sharp dagger in the hands of the Tang Empire - Zongheng Si Blood Droplets.

This is a protracted conspiracy, if it is strictly traced, it can be traced back to the Western Turkic mutiny after the victory of the Battle of Lingzhou, the trade matters stipulated in the legally binding "Royal Court Treaty" signed between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Turks, it was this treaty that gave the merchants of the Tang Dynasty the right to act cheaply, and also allowed the blood drops of the Zongheng Division to successfully infiltrate the commercial trade activities of Guò into this conspiracy of the century and dominate it.

Tongguò's commercial trade with the Western Turks, the commercial power of the Tang Dynasty was able to radiate the entire Western Regions, and the entire Western Regions that the Tang Dynasty could not intervene in, including Tuyuhun, was different from other Western Regions countries, after the Western Regions countries had severed relations with the Central Plains for hundreds of years, they did not enter a hostile state, so the relationship between the two sides was actually a blank, and everyone's memory was only stuck in the era of Banchao Bangu hundreds of years ago.

And after hundreds of years, the powerful Han empire only exists in various countries and folk rumors. Once again, a large number of pack horses, a large number of carts, a large number of goods, a large number of merchants, all showed the strength of this super empire that had disappeared for hundreds of years, and the Western Regions could no longer understand the Central Plains, but they understood the submission of the Western Turks to this super empire, and they smelled something.

They have a hunch. That super empire. The powerful Han empire recorded in the history books, the group of Han people, is about to return.

The elite cavalry unit that once crisscrossed the land of the Western Regions, the great man who single-handedly pacified the Western Regions and re-established order. and the great empire that stands on top of the world behind him. After disappearing for hundreds of years. Finally coming back.

No country wants the armies of that great empire to appear first on their soil, so they have to go out. Do business with that big empire, communicate with each other, get to know each other through commercial trade between merchants, and when the commercial trade reaches a certain stage, then carry out political exchanges, such as whether this big empire has the same mind as the powerful empire hundreds of years ago.

The merchants of the Tang Dynasty thus obtained the right to enter the land of the Western Regions and do business in the countries of the Western Regions, and Du Ruhui, the head of the vertical and horizontal division who exercised diplomatic rights on behalf of the diplomatic department of the Tang Dynasty, personally went to the Western Turks, met with the representatives of the Western Turkic countries in the Western Turkic royal court, had friendly conversations, and agreed to trade with each other, and exchanged with each other, so the Han Silk Road was not opened, but the steppes that could pass through the Western Turks could communicate with each other, and the merchants of the Tang Dynasty could walk freely on the land of the Western Turks.

After the royal court, the Western Regions opened their borders and welcomed the first Tang merchants from the Western Turkic steppe into their territory, doing business with their people, bringing silk and porcelain that had not been seen for hundreds of years, as well as luxury goods, and indulging in the goodwill of the great empire.

Of course, those merchants from the Great Empire have become the most popular people in these countries, they are gentle, polite, and their gestures exude a noble atmosphere, just like the noble and incomprehensible Tang Empire, this nobility makes them intoxicated, that kind of temperament makes them intoxicated, in less than a month, the civilization brought by the Tang Dynasty has swept all strata of the Western Regions, wearing silk, using porcelain, drinking five-color drinks, and speaking Chinese, all of which have become the most trendy fashion style in these countries.

At the same time, these gentle representatives from the Han Dynasty and the Tang Empire became the guests of the high-level rulers of the Western Regions, a small banquet on three days, a big banquet on five days, and they did not want to communicate with them all the time, and they always hoped to absorb the advanced civilization from the East, they said that since they lost the communication with the Central Plains, the land has become increasingly barren and the water source has been increasingly depleted, and they desperately need help from the Great Empire of the East, and they are eager to bring a qiē that can nourish this barren land.

The delegates politely replied, that is certain, Datang is a country of etiquette, everything is a kilometer, your country needs the help of Datang, that is the unshirkable responsibility of Datang, what you need, we can bring from Datang, you only need to pay a little bit of wealth, you can get these things, these things will nourish your land, nourish your people, and let you get nourishment.

Of course, if you want to get more, you have to wait for some time, wait for some time, wait for the army of the Tang Dynasty to control all the cities and land here, the officials of the Tang Dynasty to manage all the people and livestock here, the people of the Tang Dynasty to occupy all the soil and rivers here, and the Qiē of the Tang Dynasty have been reproduced here, and at that time, you will be nourished and will thrive......

These businessmen, these businessmen with a special mission, none of them, are not the outstanding leaders in the Zongheng Division Blood Drop Organization, they shoulder the mission of focusing on dà, according to the requirements of Du Ruxuan's servants, endure humiliation, become a businessman, use their wisdom, to earn the money needed for the development of Datang, create better living conditions for their families, and prepare for Datang to further enter the Western Regions and control all aspects of the Western Regions.

Befriend the ruling strata of these countries, give some food and water to the poor people of these countries from time to time, so that they can live, and in the shortest possible time, spread the reputation of the Tang people's friendliness and kindness throughout the Western Regions, and deeply implant the concept of Datang as a ceremonial state in the hearts of all the people in the Western Regions. At any cost, they controlled the economic lifelines of these countries, controlled the daily lives of these countries, and dealt with them in the same way that they dealt with the Western Turks.

Before the army conquered this place with steel knives and firearms, they first controlled it with benevolence and means, guided public opinion, shaped the Tang Dynasty as their protector, and shaped the Tang Dynasty into a paradise-like country, and when the troops and officials of the Tang Dynasty were stationed here to officially rule, their resistance and resistance were minimized. Let them get used to the rule of the Tang Dynasty. even, let them identify themselves as a Tang people.

The concept that the Tang Dynasty people are good people has deeply occupied the mainstream position in the countries of the Western Regions. Some high-level figures with great strategic thinking have expressed concern about this. I am deeply worried that this great empire today is not like the empire that set up the Protectorate of the Western Regions here. The fame they have fought for is the cornerstone of their original government, and the great empire is destroying these cornerstones while shaping its own. What are they trying to do?

The Protectorate of the Western Regions did not interfere in the internal affairs of these countries, and now, what does this empire called "Tang" want to set up on this land?

However, their voices are too weak and too small, just like the high-level figures in the Western Turks who resist the Tang Dynasty trade plan, the disconnection between the top and the bottom makes them not realize what the trade with the Tang Dynasty has brought them, there will not be a lot of time, and it will not take much time for them to understand that when they are enjoying money and power, their foundation has been quietly hollowed out by the Tang Dynasty, and with a gentle push of both hands, the huge Western Turks will collapse with a bang.

This, called Ming Xiu Plank Road, secretly crossing Chen Cang, is a strategy led by a Chinese tribe named Han Xin.

The countries of the Western Regions were immersed in the friendship and goodwill of the Tang Dynasty, and they believed that they had made good fortune, but some countries felt deeply jealous of this, such as Tuyuhun, who had always pursued a hostile policy towards the Tang Dynasty.

What capital does Tuyuhun have and what confidence does it have, so hostile to the Tang Dynasty, which is dozens of times larger than it and a hundred times stronger than it, no one knows, but in history, it is not just a Tuyuhun who is so arrogant and laughs for eternity, the birth of the idiom of Yelang arrogance is because a small country thinks very highly of itself and despises the strong Han Empire, and is destroyed as a result.

Tuyuhun's arrogance and stupidity, I really don't know why.

From the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, during the Wude period, a total of nine years, the two sides did not have more than half a year of peace, entering the Zhenguan era, this frequency has decreased, but there is still zài, its repeated attacks and disturbances, so that Li Er Majesty Xià annoyed, and finally made up his mind to do something to this country.

Tuyuhun is not a large country, almost the area of Gansu Province, but the population is quite a lot, according to the secret report of the blood drops of the vertical and horizontal division, the population of this country is about 300,000, the army is between 50,000 and 80,000, compared to the Western Regions countries together are only more than 100,000 standing army, is a military power, which is also where he dares to go against the Tang Dynasty.

But in the eyes of the Tang monarchs, the 300,000 population is 300,000 slaves, 80,000 troops, and 80,000 strong laborers, which is a valuable asset for the development momentum of the Tang Dynasty that is now in full swing.

This needs a reason.

Du Ruhui provided this reason.

The countries of the Western Regions have gained a lot of benefits because of trade with the Tang Dynasty, which makes Tuyuhun look very angry, but the national policy of being the enemy of the Tang Dynasty for a long time, as well as the fact that the Tang people hate Tuyuhun, and the fact that the countries specially determined at the Western Turkic Royal Court Conference are not allowed to trade with Tuyuhun made Tuyuhun not hope to start normal bilateral relations with the Tang Dynasty, and the efforts he has made cannot be achieved under the opposition of the hardcore hawk King Tianzhu.

If you don't give it, I'll grab it!

They set such a national policy, before Du Ruhui made a move, a total of seven caravans were killed on the way from the Western Turks to the Western Regions, losing more than 100 people and a large number of goods, Li Er Majesty was furious and asked to track down, but no matter how the murderer could not be found, he finally had to order Ashina Ni to send troops to escort it, if the Western Turkic army was unusable, then he had to use the Tang garrison.

Ashina Niyu was very concerned about this, and immediately said that there was no need to use the Tang garrison, and immediately sent elite troops to escort the Tang caravan and the caravan of all ethnic groups, which calmed the panic that permeated the merchants of all ethnic groups, and the countries of the Western Regions also successively sent troops to meet them at the border and escort them all the way to ensure safety.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that there is no other country than Tuyuhun, who can't admit it, Du Ruhui seized this information and immediately instructed the elite secret agents of the Zongheng Division to pretend to be illegal merchants of the Tang Dynasty and trade secretly with Tuyuhun, and through guò three robbing caravans in exchange for the trust of Tuyuhun's famous hawk boss Tianzhu King.

That person, surnamed Liu. (To be continued......)
