Tang's dining table

Chapter 538 In the final analysis, interests are still at stake

It didn't matter who Bagman or Bu Langzi came from the Western Regions. What Yunchu wanted to know was whether there were any changes in the Western Regions that the Tang people didn't know about.

The Western Region is very large, even larger than the entire Central Plains.

In that vast land, because of the sparse population, people in the Tang Dynasty generally did not know about some unknown small fluctuations that occurred in certain places.

This resulted in a passive situation for the Tang people in the Western Regions. Every time something happened that was carefully planned by the Western Regions people, the Tang people could only counterattack hastily and could only passively defend.

Yunchu, who has lived and grown up in the Western Regions for more than ten years, knows very well that ordinary Westerners are destined to be a shepherd, a shepherd girl, a warrior, or a reproductive tool from birth.

Because they have never read a book, their poor education comes from oral instruction from their parents and tribesmen. The problem is that their parents and tribesmen are as ignorant as they are.

People in the Western Regions basically don’t have much knowledge or experience accumulation, because their knowledge accumulation often breaks down due to the destruction of the ethnic group, and then they have to continue to follow the principles taught by the victors. After a long time, they no longer know anything. What is right and what is wrong.

An educated Tang person would have a very strong cognitive gap if he stayed in a tribe in the Western Regions, because those people would often regard some extremely absurd and extremely wrong principles as philosophies to follow and practice.

The brain of the clan leader is basically the brain of the entire clan, and the behavior of the clan leader is basically the behavior of the entire clan.

Their lifestyle is more like that of ants and bees than a complete human society.

They can make a decision about rebellion in an instant, and they can also decide about surrender in an instant.

As for the consequences of the rebellion, they did not consider it. They only thought about the little benefits they got during the rebellion.

Similarly, they don't think much about the consequences of surrender. They only want to use surrender to obtain pardon. As for whether others are willing to pardon them, this is not within their scope of consideration.

Because the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the binding force of the tribe is very poor, there is no soil for law to be born in the Western Regions. Even if they learn some laws from others, not many people follow them.

Therefore, people in the Western Regions are very free. They wander around in the wilderness, grassland, Gobi desert, and deserts of the Western Regions. They just don’t have enough food to eat, enough clothes to wear, and there are always not enough cattle and sheep. He died very quickly and without warning.

Such an environment has forged their optimistic nature and strong endurance in the face of hardships in life.

Yun Chu had seen people from the Western Regions who had not eaten for ten days but still had a smile on their faces. He had seen disabled soldiers who were still crawling around eating cow dung for a living after having their legs cut off. He had also seen people who were beaten by others for giving birth. The pregnant woman used a wooden stick to crush her belly, and finally even her internal organs were crushed out...

Therefore, when facing the people from the Western Regions, there were not many strategies that the Tang people could adopt. Under normal circumstances, if they were beaten indiscriminately and then talked nicely, the effect would be 10,000 times better than talking nicely at the beginning.

If you can't make them afraid, then all you will get is lies.

People in the Western Regions are born lying. They learned it from wild beasts in their lives, such as eagles, wolves, foxes, etc. They believe that lying is a means of making a living and has nothing to do with morality. Of course, the people in the Western Regions at this time The concept of morality has not yet been born.

What the Han people learned from nature was the truth beyond natural phenomena, while what the Westerners learned from nature was the ability to make a living. (Reference bibliography "General History of the Western Regions" Yu Taishan).

Therefore, Yunchu didn't believe that Bagman who was discovered by Yin Erhu was Bagman from the beginning, and he also didn't believe that Balangzi was not Bagman.

Just like there are two wolves who want to cooperate to eat the single person, one is in the light and the other is in the dark. As for who is in the light and who is in the dark, it is uncertain. The division of labor among the wolves is not so fine yet. It must be Whoever has the opportunity is the wolf who takes action.

If Yunchu locked up one wolf now, then the other wolf would have to show up.

As for whether a pack of several wolves would appear, Yun Chu was not sure. However, the people from the Western Regions were the focus of the government's attention in Chang'an and could not hide them.

In short, just capture a few wolves if they come. This is Chang'an and Yunchu's own territory. He doesn't think there will be a wolf disaster. Even if it does, Yunchu is determined to peel off all the wolf skins to use as mattresses.

When he returned home, he saw the old monkey taking Naha, Li Si, Yunjin and the others to eat chicken together, which made Yun Chu feel relieved.

He took a chicken leg from the scattered lotus leaf and before putting it in his mouth, he heard Yun Jin's heart-rending wails.

Yun Chu held the chicken leg and looked at everyone in puzzlement. Only then did he clearly see that they were showing humility to each other. He picked it up when no one wanted to eat it.

"This is your son's strategy. He has already taken a fancy to this chicken leg, so he held the chicken leg in a circle and asked everyone to clearly give up the right to eat this chicken leg. Only then will he give up the chicken leg that belongs to him. Put down the chicken leg and eat something else. Wait until he has finished what he has on hand, then eat this chicken leg. Not only can he eat more, but he can also get praise from everyone, saying that he is a good and humble boy.

Now, you have taken away this chicken leg, and the good example that the child has worked so hard to establish is gone.

What a heinous crime! "

Yun Chu looked at his son, who was crying heartbrokenly, and put down the drumstick sarcastically. However, Yun Jin cried even louder.

It seems that what he just took away was not only the chicken drumsticks, but also the praise that the child could easily get. Now, the drumsticks are back, but the praise is gone.

"You stay at home and take care of the children during this period, and don't go anywhere. When I finish handling the matter, you can run around again."

The old monkey nodded while gnawing on the chicken neck. He has become very Chinese now. As he gets older, he begins to listen to the arrangements of his younger generation.

Jinchangfang is the city of the Yun family. In this city, every resident is the spy of the Yun family. After Liu Yi gave the order, people from outside wanted to approach the Yun family compound silently. Basically, It is impossible to go up because everyone has become a defender.

Such a tight defense is definitely not comparable to Xu Jingzong's defense method of surrounding his home with troops.

This point has been concretely demonstrated in previous actions to prevent snitches, and the results have been amazing.

The old monkey ate a piece of chicken skin and said, "Don't be mean-spirited. People from the Western Regions are honest and follow the upright path of samurai competition."

Yun Chu glanced at the old monkey. He was the ancestor of the liars in the Western Regions. He had never told the truth to outsiders in his life, but now he said that people in the Western Regions were honest. It seemed that the old monkey even cheated himself.

"What if they don't intend to use samurai methods, but instead use tactics?"

The old monkey raised his head and glanced at Yunchu, took the handkerchief from Naha's hand and wiped his oily hands and said to Yunchu: "This is all your business, I don't care, no matter what, you have to wait for Bagman to fight." One game.”

Yun Chu smiled and said, "I told you, with Chang'an City at my back, I am invincible."

The old monkey said nonchalantly: "All the troubles come from the Dawan Governor's Palace established by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty in Kanji City in February this year.

Liu Changqing, the governor of Dawan Dudufu, asked Kang, Mi and Shi under his rule for 20,000 fine horses, and they must pay them all in September this year. Otherwise, the king will be beheaded.

His move caused great changes in the country with the nine surnames of Zhaowu. Some people in power who wanted the king to die tried their best to prevent the king from contributing good horses to the Tang Dynasty, and then achieved the goal of killing the king.

My affairs are also related to this matter. "

Yun Chu looked at the old monkey in surprise and said, "Do you also want the king of the Stone Kingdom to die?"

The old monkey nodded and said: "This is natural. If he doesn't die, how will your sister expand my power in the Stone Kingdom?"

Yun Chu looked back at Naha who was sitting at the stone table sharing chicken with her nieces and nephews, and whispered: "Naha shouldn't have such ambitions, right?"

The old monkey curled his lips and said, "Naha does. If you don't believe it, just ask."

Yun Chu shouted to Naha: "Naha, do you want the Stone Kingdom?"

Naha said in confusion: "I want jade, not stone."

The old monkey then shouted: "Naha, do you want more cattle, sheep, horses and camels?"

Naha immediately said with a smile: "Yes, yes, I must."

The old monkey looked at Naha dotingly and waved to her. When Naha once again took the chicken pieces and divided the meat, the old monkey said to Yun Chu: "Now, do you also want to kill Shi?" Shi Fulin, the king of the country?"

Yun Chu nodded and said: "Okay, does it mean that as long as I kill Bagman, I can kill Shi Fulin, the king of the Stone Kingdom?"

The old monkey said: "Killing Bagman must be done under the witness of the nine surnamed Zhaowu people near Chang'an City. Only in this way can it be considered in line with the rules of the Stone Kingdom's founding of the country with a "war cage". Only people from far away in the Stone Kingdom can veto the king's decision to give the big Don’s suggestion of contributing a good horse, no matter what, the process must go forward.”

Yun Chu thought for a while and said: "Nowadays, most of the nine Zhaowu surnames in the Tang Dynasty live in Liangzhou, there are also some in Lantian County, and there is also one in Qujiang. In other words, I have to kill them myself under the watch of these people. Does it count until Bagman is dead?”

The old monkey blinked his smoky gray eyes, nodded and said, "That's true."

Yun Chu raised his head and looked at the towering Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and chuckled: "In ten thousand years, the two counties of Chang'an will open a hypermarket dedicated to the merchants of the nine surnames of Zhaowu. In this hypermarket, they can exchange as much as they want. Goods, purchase goods.”

The old monkey sighed and said: "In this case...all the people from the nine surnames of Zhaowu will become blind."
