Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 884 An "Investment"

As one of the rare nobles of the former West Kara Khanate, Vasik's status is not at all special among the people from the Western Regions, but is the lowest.

As a noble of the Western Kara Khanate, he had conflicts with the tribal leaders of the Eastern Kara Khanate, let alone the tribal leaders of the Gaochang area who had different beliefs.In the Western Province of the Lu Qi Dynasty, there were originally three local forces, with Gaochang being the strongest. The Eastern and Western Kara Khanates had always united to deal with it because of their beliefs, but there were also deep-rooted conflicts between them, just like the original Wei Dynasty. The same as the Three Kingdoms of Shu and Wu.

Now the nobles of the West Kara Khanate have almost rebounded collectively, and there are only three or two big cats and kittens left on Lu Qi's side. As a political force, it no longer exists.

As a result, the remaining nobles of the Western Kara Khanate surrendered to East Kara one after another. This is a real surrender.

East Kara is naturally willing to take in these people who are connected with their fate, but only Vasik, the tribal leaders of East Kara shy away from him, treating him like a snake.

Because this Wasik is a person with a "criminal record".He is a person who is anyway, a person who was originally involved in the rebellion, but took the initiative to rebel before the Battle of Talas.

Although the opportunity to jump back allowed him to escape the catastrophe of being settled by the queen, it was still a stain that could not be clearly understood.Like AIDS patients in later generations, he was ostracized by the nobles of the old Kara Khanate.

Wasik himself was very uneasy.

The stain on his body cannot be washed away, and he is not the only nobleman in the Western Kara Khanate. Even if Lu Qichao wants thousands of gold to buy horse bones, there is no way he would choose him.

But Vasik didn't think that Emperor Lu recruited him into Jinling just to settle accounts and be stabbed.What a little man was he Vasik?The emperor of the Central Plains wants to kill him, so why bother, he can only be caught with a single command and let him be disposed of.Whether he died in the Western Regions or was escorted back to Jinling for execution was a matter of little effort.

Therefore, Vasik also has great hopes for meeting Emperor Lu this time, and he looks forward to "washing off" the stain after this incident.

After all, he was the one who met the emperor.

He was so worried about gains and losses that when Wasik walked all the way to Fengtian Hall, his back was getting wet.

Fortunately, after they got up today, not only did they not eat, but they also drank water very sparingly.This is to prevent them from misbehaving in court.

Otherwise, the moment Vasik stepped into the Fengtian Hall, he might have passed the shit.

But now he suddenly heard Emperor Lu call out his name. The coercive voice from above made Vasik, who was already nervous, have a nervous breakdown and could no longer hold on.The whole person was lying on the ground, all five body cast down.

"Criminal Vasik, I greet His Majesty the Emperor, long live my Emperor."

Although this person is a descendant of the Uighurs, unlike the Uighur nobles in Gaochang, almost none of the tribal leaders of the Kara Khanate, especially the West Kara Khanate, can speak Chinese.This is the Chinese language that the nobles of the West Kara Khanate who were forced to bow their heads after the Lu Qi army marched west were forced to learn.

The first word that Wasik could speak was "China", and the first name that Wasik could speak was "Washik".

He spoke very stiffly, but he didn't know how many times he had practiced these words in his mind, so he said them smoothly.

"When you rebelled, you were also deceived by traitors. Now that you have turned around and returned to the heaven, you are doing an act in compliance with the destiny of heaven. I will welcome you with an open mind. You can correct your mistakes if you know them. There is no great way to do good, and those unpleasant things will disappear. Let it pass. I have always been generous." Although the voice on the dragon throne was still majestic, it also had a hint of kindness.Wasik, who was kneeling down, couldn't understand it until the voice of the translator sounded. After hearing it, his heart felt hot and he wished he could express his infinite gratitude.

The emperor spoke personally, which was a great kindness that he could never have imagined.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not forgetting the past. Thank you, Your Majesty, for not forgetting the past..."

"Hahaha, get up, everyone get up." Looking at the air column above Vasik's head, Emperor Lu's voice paused for a moment, and when it sounded again, there was a burst of joy.

What followed was just a formality, each department presented their own congratulatory gifts, and then received rewards from Emperor Lu.That is, some silk, porcelain, etc., but they will not be given large sums of gold and silver.

Now Lu Qian regards them as Jimi Prefecture in the southwest. The heads of various ministries were appointed as local officials, and then sent Hanchen to go deep into various places, a little bit subtle.Therefore, we must be gentle with these tribal leaders, especially those in the Eastern Kara Khanate.

They are different from the various chiefs in Gaochang. The latter have changed from nomadic life to semi-fixed life. Agriculture occupies an important position in their life process, which is no less important than herding. Lu Qi's rule over them is also more important. It is convenient.But in the Eastern Kara Khanate, you have to go to Huairou for the tribes whose main way of life is nomadic.

Huairou doesn't just comply with them, but he can't rely solely on strong tactics.These people are all the future subjects of Lu Qian's son.

The tribal leaders of the Western Regions retired from the Fengtian Hall one by one with joy, and the big stone in their hearts was finally relieved.Although their crisis has not been completely resolved in the long run, looking at the present, this is already the best outcome.

Back to Xuande Pavilion, Emperor Lu discussed this "investment" with his ministers.

Yes, this meeting is an "investment" in Lu Qian's view.

Lu Qi's force has been 'identified' by the indigenous people in the Western Regions, and now he needs to use "gentle" methods to make them identify with China.

And no matter from that era, such "Huairou" means are to give benefits.Isn't that an investment?

Invest money now and reap ten or a hundred times the wealth later.

However, Song Jiang, who was already the Minister of War, was the first to praise loudly: "Your Majesty is majestic. From the beginning to the end, none of the natives from the Western Regions dared to raise their heads and peek at His Majesty's face. It can be seen that those barbarians knew that I am dignified."

"All the tribes in the Western Regions are small and weak tribes. Compared with our Central Plains, they are as straight as fireflies than the bright moon. At present, there are some people from the original Western Kara Khanate to set an example. Many of the people who came to the pilgrimage today are Those who benefited from the previous incident, how dare they disrespect our court? It’s just that Yelu Dashi and other three banners have suppressed the previous chaos. It can be like crushing an ant to death, making him and his tribe disappear from this world forever." Lin Chong, who is the No. 1 in the military, said proudly.

Although he has not been on the battlefield for a long time, he represents the military in the court.The military's attitude is undoubtedly very tough.

Just like Ma Heimu II before him, after the Tianfang people's coalition army was wiped out, the entire original Western Kara Khanate was shrouded in blood, and the swords, guns and iron hoofs also entered the Huacizimo.

The cabinet finally accepted the surrender of the Western Kara people, but in Lin Chong's view, the court had no reason to accept the surrender of the Western Kara people a second time.We should wipe out all the nobles and their people there, and use a bloody scene to let the tribes in the northwest understand that there will be no good outcome if they go against the country above.

It even organized a large army to carry out a second western expedition to let the Seljuks understand how serious the consequences of provoking China are.
