Chapter 793: The Responses of the Countries in the Western Regions (Part 2)

Standing in line? Everyone was stunned for a moment, hesitated and looked at each other for a long time. Finally, Ma Wanjie was the first to take the lead to stand on the right, with Kucha people following closely, followed by others, and only the envoy of Khotan stood awkwardly in place and didn't know what to do.

"What? Is there something wrong with the messenger of Khotan?" Wang Xuance kept a faint smile, even though he was very tired now.

"No, no." The Khotan people shook their heads habitually, but looking at their buddies who were still in the same hatred of the enemy, they were now standing on the other side. The inexplicable anger surged in their hearts: "However, I have something to ask the envoy of the Tang Dynasty to solve some doubts."

"Tell me, if you can understand Wang, you will naturally not be stingy with saliva." Wang Xuance compared a gesture to ask for advice.

"What did the Tang Dynasty come to the Western Regions for? What are the benefits of the Western Regions? It is worth the Tang Dynasty's unremitting plan?" The envoy of Zhentian also took his leave and turned over the table regardless of everything.

"There is nothing in the Western Regions, and there is nothing short of the Tang Dynasty. When I came here, the Tang Dynasty came for peace in the Western Regions." Wang Xuance said seriously and said countless times, but he changed the subject later: "But there are always some people who do not want peace in the Western Regions. They are selfish and only think about how to exploit some weak countries. The envoy of Khotan, do you think there is still a need for such a selfish country to exist?"

Although Wang Xuance's words were a bit provocative, they were quite touched by some small countries who came with them.

It is their misfortune to guarding a powerful neighbor. The rules of the Western Regions' prey on the weak have made them suffer from exploitation by major powers such as Khotan and Kucha, but they dare not say it because they may have the danger of destroying the country.

On the other hand, the Tang Dynasty was no longer willing to exploit the power of the Tang Dynasty. On the contrary, every time they went to the Tang Dynasty to pay tribute, there would be countless rewards, which were much more than they contributed, and there were a lot more.

In comparison, a group of small countries looked at the envoys of Khotan, and even though they knew that it was Wang Xuance who instigated them, they could not hide the unwillingness in their hearts.

"Dear Tang envoy." The people of Khotan still used the name he used to call Wang Xuance: "Khotan is not the kind of country you mentioned. Khotan once paid a lot for peace in the Western Regions, but everything changed after the arrival of the Tang Dynasty. It was the Tang Dynasty that provoked war, the Tang Dynasty launched an attack on Tanaka and occupied Shache City!"

Whether it is a turnaround or a truthful statement, the envoy of Khotan was a bit willing to say this. A fierce Tyrannosaurus opposite was accusing the Tyrannosaurus of his evil deeds. Except for saying that the envoy of Khotano is commendable, everyone thought he was already crazy.

"Khotanite, are you ready for war?" Wang Xuance threatened without any concealment in response to the Tanite's statement.

"After this matter, what else can I prepare? The Tang Dynasty came to the Western Regions just to Tu. My neighbors died. What are the fears of me? "The envoy of Khotan was also planning to fight.

At the beginning, he was unacceptable to the cedes of territory proposed by Yuchi Baolin. Now, facing Wang Xuance, he knew that the request made by the Wang surname would only be even more excessive. If this is the case, it would be better to fight to the death and let those countries in the Western Regions who were lucky enough to see what the true face of the Tang Dynasty was.

"Can you treat the envoy's words as a declaration of war?" Wang Xuance smiled and asked unmovedly.

"So what!" The messenger of Khotan said with his neck stammering, and at the same time turned his head to the group of people standing on the right: "Do you think they will let you go? I tell you, this is impossible. They are just a group of evil wolves. They will not let us go if they don't chew all our flesh and absorb all our bone marrow. If we want to survive, we can only unite and drive them out of the Western Regions with the help of the Western Turks. This is how we protect ourselves."

The messenger of Khotan was like a martyr, but everything he showed was useless.

Gaochang had already surrendered, and Kucha was unable to support him. Even if he wanted to help Yutian, he had to consider the more than 40,000 people left in the Tang Dynasty. After all, there were only 15,000 people in front of them now, and only one-quarter of the Tang army with 60,000 people.

The poor guys still don’t know until now that the total strength of the Tang Dynasty in the territory is actually not 60,000, but 75,000 people.

Two big countries did not appear, and small countries with only a few thousand troops would not stand up. Small countries with a population of tens of thousands and a few thousand troops actually wanted the Tang Dynasty to come in immediately. At that time, they immediately surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. If they could get a position like a county magistrate, it would be much better than the situation now that they had eaten the first meal but had no meal.

Although there is an old saying in the Central Plains: It is better to make a chicken head than a phoenix tail, but this chicken depends on what chicken it is, and the phoenix also depends on what phoenix it is. After eating the chicken that has no meal, and has to worry about its livelihood every day, compared with the phoenix that has a rich and elegant dress every day, it seems that the phoenix tail is also a good choice.

It is precisely for this reason that when facing the envoys of Tian, ​​all the envoys of small countries lowered their heads and no longer looked at them. Ma Wanjie of Gaochang had a gloating in his eyes, and his eyes were provocative.

It was over, and the envoy of Khotan shouted a slogan for a long time, but finally found that it was useless at all. Even Kucha, which had an alliance with Khotan, did not stand up, but instead exposed the relationship between Khotan and the Western Turks.

"Emister of Khotan, you can leave, go back and prepare." After hearing the Western Turks, Wang Xuance's expression had cooled down, and even the eyes of the envoys from various countries standing on the right were faintly unkind.

"Hmph..., I, Khotan, will definitely take revenge. When the head of the King of Han is placed in front of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, it will be the time when your head falls to the ground." The envoy of Khotan was forced to a dead end and took out Li Yuanchang, a two-person guy, and threatened him again.

"You can try it, see if the head of the Lord of Khotan and his family was sent to Chang'an first, or the head of the King of Han was sent to Chang'an first." Wang Xuance looked at the envoy of Khotan without permission.

Lao Wang is not stupid. If Yutian is obviously not a rival to the Tang Dynasty, would the Lord of Khotan kill the King of Han? As long as he doesn't have a brain, he will know that this is simply impossible. He keeps a prince of the Tang Dynasty in his hand to save his life, and even after being defeated, he may survive. It is not up to Wang Xuance to bear such a thing, and even the silly Yuchi Baolin can figure it out.

Therefore, the threat of the envoy of Khotan is of no practical use except that he seems to be lacking in confidence in Khotan.
