The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain
307. I wish to go north to Chang'an and bear the thorns to plead guilty (please request for ful
"confidant?"
"Are you just a deceptive evil spirit? Are you worthy of being compared with the envoy?"
Yizhou Sima Lin Tiannan glanced at the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult with disdain and scolded.
"Moon worship, watch your words."
"You are a prisoner now!"
Someone else scolded.
"Your envoy also agrees with my point of view. Isn't this a close friend?"
"How can ordinary mortals like you understand the world that this leader and your envoys see..."
The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult said disdainfully.
He was now convinced that the Tang Army coach in front of him knew the "perfect principles of heaven and earth" just like him, so he would not be as rude to him as these mediocre mortals, but would treat him as a close friend and treat him as a distinguished guest.
Even if you are not a guest in the hall, you will not be a prisoner.
"Nonsense!"
"You, a foreign monster, are you worthy of being compared with your Majesty? Your Majesty is a scholar of heaven and man. I have long understood the truth you are talking about. What you regard as the ultimate principle of heaven and earth is here, and you can get it by climbing the steps!"
In the handsome tent, a man expressed his disdain for the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult.
Since ancient times, people from all over the world have worshiped the Central Plains Dynasty. If you can get the top prize in the imperial examination where talents from the Central Plains Dynasty gather, you must have amazing knowledge. The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult is just a priest of Nanzhao Heimiao. In terms of knowledge, knowledge, and status, how can he compare with Bai Gui, a top scholar who was born as a scholar, a secretary, and a scholar in the middle school.
As for the theory of a round earth, although they don't quite understand it, since Shijun has already attained it, it must have some truth to it.
But on the contrary, what about the leader of the Moon Worshipers?
It's just empty talk and conjecture.
How can Bai Gui's common sense argument be reliable?
"Lord of the Moon Worshiping Cult!"
"Some of the deceptive words you said just happened to be justified by angels..."
"You still want to argue with angels over this!"
"wishful thinking!"
"You are such an evil monster, everyone can find it and kill it!"
The taciturn Witch Queen Lin Qing'er spoke up, her almond-shaped eyes filled with contempt for the Moon Worshiping Cult Leader.
She could never forget some of the slanderous remarks about her spread by the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult in Nanzhao.
Now that this enemy has fallen to this point, she feels comfortable.
The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult: "..."
Obviously what he said was exactly the same as what Bai Gui said.
But the treatment is quite different.
"quiet!"
"Your Majesty wants to speak!"
The guard leader Tang Zhida gave a light drink.
There was a lot of silence in the commander's tent immediately, and there were no words to criticize the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult.
"Master Worshiping the Moon, this rebellion in Nanzhao is all caused by you."
"Where did you hide the snake demon that brought trouble to the world? Tell me quickly. If you tell the truth... I may be able to make your death easier."
Bai Gui asked.
The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult is right when he says that the earth is round, but his mistake is that he is a civilian and has no solid evidence to prove that the truth he says is correct, so he is mistrusted by everyone. However, if it were him, even if he didn't put forward any arguments to prove the round earth theory, everyone would still be dubious. Because few people would think that their knowledge and knowledge would be higher than the number one scholar.
In other words, the leader of the Moon Worshipers can only use his strength to convince others of his point of view. But top literati like Bai Gui will make most people willing to accept and choose to believe his views from the bottom of their hearts.
The identities are different.
However, even though the theory of the round earth put forward by the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult is beyond the knowledge of many people, it has nothing to do with him.
The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult must die!
"Where is the snake monster?"
"Isn't the snake demon right in front of you?"
The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult said angrily.
It was as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head at this moment. He originally thought that Bai Gui was his soulmate, like Boya Ziqi, but he didn't expect that Bai Gui was also a guy who told lies with open eyes.
"The Witch Queen is a descendant of Nuwa, and I already know this."
"The common people in foreign countries have little knowledge and do not know that the descendants of Nuwa are people with the head of a snake and they mistake it for a snake demon. It is understandable. But Nanzhao is not only a 'snake demon' like the Witch Queen, the snake demon should be someone else..."
Bai Gui said slowly.
The Witch Queen Qing'er has been dealing with the Moon Worshiping Cult Leader a lot in the past few years, and she knows that the Moon Worshiping Cult Leader secretly raises monsters. But as for what kind of monster it was, he couldn't tell. He knew the plot and it should be a water monster.
Therefore, such rhetoric is used to deliberately deceive the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult.
Soldiers never tire of deceit.
"Unexpectedly, the leader thought he had a well-planned plan, but unexpectedly the news leaked out."
"Now that I am a prisoner, there is no need to defend..."
The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult sighed.
He believed that it was only natural for Tang Jun's coach, who was far more "intelligent" and unpredictable than him, to guess the truth of the matter.
"I give up my body..."
He was chanting a spell.
Sonorous!
The sound of drawing a sword sounded.
Jiang Ming, Lin Tiannan, Yin Ruozhuo, Mo Yixi and others, who had been on guard for the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult for a long time, killed him directly.
"Is it the breath of the water monster?"
"I didn't expect that the ancient monster Water Monster would be found by Baiyue..."
The Witch Queen Lin Qing'er is the high priest of the Bai Miao people and a descendant of Nuwa. She has lived in the Miao territory for a long time and knows about the existence of water monsters. The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult recited a spell just now. Although he failed to remove the seal from the Water Monster, part of the seal was broken and the aura of the Water Monster at the bottom of the lake leaked out.
"Since worshiping the moon is dead..."
"Order to attack the city!"
Bai Gui thought for a while and said to Lin Tiannan.
The lake where the water monsters are imprisoned is in Taihe City. If they enter Taihe City without permission, it will be troublesome for the Witch King's army to surround them.
Capturing Nanzhao was also one of his goals in leading the Tang army southward.
You can’t give up halfway!
Otherwise, even if he agrees to withdraw his troops, the generals and soldiers under his command will not agree to withdraw.
"I will obey your orders!"
The Eastern Sichuan Jiedushi and the Western Sichuan Jiedushi took orders and walked out of the commander's tent, preparing to attack the capital of Nanzhao.
There is nothing surprising about this.
Although Bai Gui seemed to have deceived King Nanzhao several times, "soldiers are important matters of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival." The blame can only be blamed on King Nanzhao for being stupid and not understanding the truth that soldiers never tire of deception.
Now that 100,000 Tang troops are about to capture Taihe City, how can all previous efforts be wasted? !
There will be no unjust war after the Spring and Autumn Period!
The Witch Queen Lin Qing'er wanted to speak to dissuade her, but after a little hesitation, she still didn't step forward.
Although she had the status of the Queen of Nanzhao, in the Tang army's tent, if the Tang army commander hadn't respected her as a descendant of Nuwa, her fate would have been unknown. Since ancient times, royal princesses and concubines who have lost their country have not had a good end.
Besides..., it was Nanzhao Kingdom and Nanzhao King who failed her.
"Please also ask the angel to restrain the Tang army soldiers after the city is broken, and not to hurt the innocent people of Nanzhao..."
"This is my little request, I hope the angel can agree to it."
When Bai Gui came out of the commander's tent and was about to watch the battle, Lin Qing'er stepped forward and bowed Yingying.
"Nanzhao is the country under the Tang Dynasty..."
"I will restrain the soldiers and horses and not harm the lives of the people."
Bai Gui, wearing bright light armor, agreed smoothly.
The ancient army was not as disciplined as the army of later generations and could enforce orders and prohibitions. Therefore, after entering the capital of Nanzhao, it was to be expected that he would be killed, burned, and looted. He could only try to restrain his troops and horses so as not to make it too ugly.
In addition, since the launch of troops in Jiannan Road, many cities have been captured. He has punished many soldiers who violated military regulations, so even if this phenomenon occurs, it is still within a certain range that can be restrained.
"Thank you angel."
Witch Queen Lin Qing'er breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't expect that the Tang Jun coach was so easy to talk to.
…
The siege took about three hours.
The city of Taihe was destroyed.
The Nanzhao Kingdom had lost troops and generals in the process of repeatedly resisting the Tang army's march southward. This time Nanzhao sacrificed its queen and princess, which already made the generals guarding the city dissatisfied. What's more, Lin Qing'er is the high priest of the Bai Miao people. After doing this, when the generals of the Bai Miao people guarding Taihe City saw the Witch Queen safe and sound beside the Tang army commander, they not only immediately opened the city gate and surrendered, but at least resisted their desire. Not strong.
The key to the rapid victory this time was that because of the siege and suppression of the leader of the Worshiping Moon Cult, the Tang army did not attack the city for a day. This caused King Nanzhao and the officials to mistakenly think that the Tang army was trustworthy and prepared to retreat, so they did not allow the defenders to attack the city. Stand ready.
Otherwise, even if Nanzhao's city-casting technology is far inferior to that of the Tang Dynasty, the capital must be strong. It would be almost impossible to truly capture a well-defended capital in just one day.
Come evening.
Bai Gui entered the palace.
Sitting on the secondary seat next to the throne.
Not on a throne.
This is a taboo thing.
Just look at Lan Yu's fate and you will know that when he was chasing death and chasing the north, he slept with the concubine of the Northern Yuan Emperor. Although Zhu Yuanzhang did not convict Lan Yu at that time, as an emperor... he would not be happy to hear such a thing.
Zhuge was cautious all his life.
"Your Majesty, King Nanzhao has been brought here."
The guard whispered in Bai Gui's ear.
"Um."
"Bring him to me!"
"You teased me three times. This crime is not easy to decide."
Bai Gui said.
If you want to capture Nanzhao and occupy it for a long time, you have to find a justifiable reason. Although the reason may be far-fetched, there must be at least one reason. It cannot be nothing. If there is nothing, then it would be the same as the barbarians.
"Xiao Wang..."
"Xiao Wang meets the angel!"
King Nanzhao was pressed to the front of the palace by the Thousand Niu Guards. When he saw General Mingguang Armor sitting on the second seat, he was terrified and bowed down.
"It is said that the ministers of the higher country do not bow to the king of the lower country."
"You are the king of this country..., so there is no need to give such a great gift."
After King Nanzhao bowed for a few breaths, he spoke slowly.
"Thank you angel."
King Nanzhao paid his thanks.
"I heard that there was a demon in Nanzhao, and with good intentions, I ordered soldiers and horses to attack the demon. However, Nanzhao repeatedly blocked me. As the king of Nanzhao, you repeatedly played tricks on me. I am an imperial envoy and an angel, representing the Great Empire. Emperor Tang!"
"You...this is a criminal deceiving the emperor, how brave you are!"
Bai Gui slammed the armrest and asked loudly.
In a country of etiquette, the most basic cutscenes still need to be carried out, otherwise it will look bad if a big country dominates a small country.
"Xiao Wang..."
"The little king wanted to welcome the imperial envoy in person, but he was deceived by a traitor. Inside, there was a queen who was causing trouble in the palace, and outside there were people worshiping the moon to confuse people's hearts. Little Wang... Xiao Wang's loyalty to the Tang Dynasty can be learned from the sun and the moon! "
"I hope the angels will see clearly!"
King Nanzhao broke out in a cold sweat and quickly blamed his "sin".
In his opinion, now that the country is ruined and the family is in ruins, if you please this angel, you may be able to save one life and then send him to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty to enjoy happiness. Even though he is the king of a ruined country, he can still live a better life than ordinary people and can be a rich man. Weng.
After the original Jieli Khan was captured by Tang Taizong Li Shimin, he danced at the banquet and had a very happy time.
"So... you don't want to plead guilty?"
Bai Gui frowned.
"Can you ask the angel to speak out?"
King Nanzhao was stunned for a moment, not knowing why.
He felt that his loyalty to the Tang Dynasty was enough.
"This time you were deceived by worshiping the moon and hundreds of officials, so you hindered the Heavenly Soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, and even attempted to unite with Tubo Kingdom to invade the border of the Tang Dynasty from the north."
"Fortunately, I was aware of the precautions and took the lead in attacking the Nanzhao capital..."
"During this period, the wise empress Lin Qing'er gave you repeated advice, saying that the power of the Tang Dynasty should not be offended, but you were indifferent. When my soldiers came to Taihe City, the wise empress Lin Qing'er took the initiative to ask for help and was willing to persuade Nanzhao to surrender, but you still Fighting the arm mantis..."
"If King Nanzhao is willing to admit these crimes, he can live in Chang'an and enjoy eternal wealth, but if he doesn't agree..."
Bai Gui looked down from a high position, looked at King Nanzhao, and said calmly.
"The empress..."
King Nanzhao seemed to have expected something, and his face suddenly turned red.
"I...I am willing to accept the order of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, go north to Chang'an, bear a thorn and plead guilty."
"I only ask the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to forgive me for my sins."
After he finished speaking, he collapsed weakly on the ground.
Angel represents the Emperor of Tang Dynasty.
So what he said was extremely appropriate.
When talking about a little king, it means that it is still a foreign country, but when talking about a minister, when talking about the emperor, it means that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers. There can be multiple kings or emperors, but there can only be one emperor.
For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, various countries had kings, but there was only one emperor, the Emperor Zhou.
