The donation of Khotan made the territory of the Song Dynasty derive a large section to the Western Regions. Although Zhao Zhen knew that Yuchi Linfeng could not withstand the pressure of Hei Khan, he did not expect that he would completely deliver Khotan to the Song Dynasty so quickly.

This may be an unexpected surprise at the end of the year.

The importance of Khotan to the Song Dynasty was self-evident, just like a springboard that penetrated directly into the Western Regions. It could attack the Western Regions in the north, go directly to Tubo in the south, and even the Black Khan to the west.

Zhao Zhen and Cui Yan were three feet tall in such an important piece of land, but the Central Plains Dynasty had to care about the appearance of the eyes, so they just sent troops to garrison, but the local autonomy was still in the hands of the Istanese royal family.

The Song Dynasty unexpectedly obtained Khotan because of the "holy war" launched by Hei Khan, which was a long time ago than Zhao Zhen's plan.

Tubo and the Western Regions can be avoided for the time being, but the Black Khan is bound to win!

The current Black Khan has been helped by the Seljuks and has a strong territory. It starts from Lop Nur in the southeast, reaches the Aral Sea in the west, Khwarezm in the south, the Amu River in the south, and Lake Balkhash in the north, and covers the vast areas of the Qihe River Basin in later generations. The territory includes Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, southern Kazakhstan and central and western Xinjiang in China.

There are vast land resources and minerals here, and more importantly, convenient transportation is a must-pass place on the Silk Road and the middle section of the Silk Road.

Once the Black Sweat was taken down, the Song Dynasty monopolized the most important middle area of ​​the entire Silk Road. This land originally did not threaten Song and Liao, and was a slightly neutral area. The rise of the Silk Road made this ancient Qihe River Basin prosperous.

But the Black Khans took a wrong step and should not have become the front pawn of the Seljuks. While testing the Song Dynasty, they were also burning themselves.

When Zhao Zhen was worried that he had no excuse to send troops to Hei Han, Hei Han sent him a "pillow".

Taking down the Black Sweat means that the Song Dynasty controlled the middle section of the Silk Road, and the Liao people who occupied the Western Regions just owned the gateway to the Silk Road. What's the use of having a "door"?

The road ahead has been held in Da Song’s hands!

Once the Liao Dynasty's Silk Road was cut off, it would strangle the throat of the economy. This dynasty that could only rely on the West to obtain the economy would eventually lead to destruction. This is a famous saying: Money is not omnipotent, but it is absolutely impossible to have no money...

From the beginning of the Liao Dynasty's capture of the Western Regions, Zhao Zhen had already thought of a way to deal with the Liao Dynasty. While the Liao Dynasty obtained a large amount of economy from the Western Regions and the Silk Road, Zhao Zhen had already buried a bomb.

The Liao people relied too much on the Western Regions and the Silk Road. It was not the time to take action against the Liao Dynasty, but launching a war against the Black Khan and seizing the entire middle section of the Silk Road was an urgent task for the Song Dynasty.

Only by taking down Black Sweat and monopolizing the middle section of the Silk Road can the Song Dynasty be the winner.

Only by successfully planning to curb the Liao Dynasty's economy and foreign trade, the Song Dynasty had the opportunity to regain the peak on the Silk Road.

Therefore, Zhao Zhen tried his best to prompt the Song Dynasty to advance westward, attack the Black Khan and start a battle to conquer the demons!

Once war is connected with faith, it will be completely different. For the sake of faith, the Hei Khan people embarked on the road of destruction in a crazy and arrogant manner. It is unwise to fight against the Song Dynasty.

When the news of the Song Dynasty that the land of Khotan was released, the rulers of the Liao Dynasty discovered that it was meaningful. Xiao Tali immediately called the troops from the Western Regions to be on guard. She understood the emperor of the Song Dynasty. That man's methods were always like antelope hanging on his horns, which was unexpected.

But the first one to be unlucky was not the Western Regions or the Black Khan, but the yellow-headed Uighurs who survived between the Song Dynasty and Khotan.........

The end of the Song Dynasty this year was quite lively. The people of Shendu City saw the royal family entering the capital. Yuchi Linfeng, the king of Khotan, personally offered hundreds of miles of territory in Khotan and the Song Dynasty. This time, he made a complete offering, maps, lists, and national letters.

Zhao Zhen spent the festival with Yuchi Linfeng at Xuande Gate.

The people of Shendu were excited and shouted long live, and their voices shook the sky. For a moment, the atmosphere was magnificent and the majesty of the country was revealed. However, Yuchi Linfeng, who was standing beside Zhao Zhen, wiped the cold sweat slightly on his head.

He was glad that he made the right choice. The Song Dynasty he saw along the way was far more than his. He also heard his father's description of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but compared with the Song Dynasty in front of him, it was incomparable.

The prosperity of Song Dynasty was no longer a city or a pool, no longer a capital, but a whole country!

Not to mention anything else, let’s talk about Ningxia Road, which is closest to Khotan and the farthest from the center of the Song Dynasty. There he saw the roads across, countless factories, thousands of hectares of fertile fields, and large areas of cotton land.

Although it is not a gathering of cotton planting, the factories there are running, and the cotton is processed at this time every year and it starts in April.

There are countless peddlers and pawns, and young people are no longer troubled by the land. No, everyone is no longer troubled by the land. They have work to do. In the town, there are all kinds of work, and there are no ones that can defeat people.

Yuchi Linfeng had a very unique vision, and he saw the chain of interests connected behind the prosperity of the Song Dynasty.

It is not the prosperity of a city and a pool, nor the prosperity of a state and a prefecture, but the prosperity of the entire country. Not to mention the Black Khan, even the Liao Dynasty was far from a rival to the Song Dynasty.

Entering Xuande Tower, Zhao Zhen took Yuchi Linfeng's hand and invited him into the guest seat. This was an opportunity to show intimacy and favor. Although an ordinary move, it gave Yuchi Linfeng a sense of ease, and most of the original melancholy and embarrassment disappeared.

"Since you have entered my capital of God, you are my friend. Khotan has protected China for thousands of years and has been dependent on it but has not rebelled. It is a country of loyalty and righteousness. I will give you the title of King of loyalty and righteousness to boast about Khotan's achievements for thousands of years! He has been inherited and retired with the country!"

Being a king?!

It is still a hereditary title of king who is in the same reunion as the country. What a great honor!

The entire Xuande Building was as quiet as a chicken for a moment………

Sancai stood there quietly, and the title of the Song Dynasty was never easily granted, especially the title of the inherited title of the throne, which was almost impossible!

Who would have thought that his foreign royal family, Khotan, could actually win the King of Loyalty and Righteousness of the Song Dynasty!

As for the current power of the Song Dynasty, the title of the Song Dynasty is equivalent to the most noble title in the world.

Sancai saw the Grand Secretary and the husbands who were invited to accompany him, showing jealous and panic expressions.

Sure enough, with Zhao Zhen's words, there were countless advice in the entire Xuande Building. Yuchi Linfeng, who had experienced great joy, was not overwhelmed by this noble glory. He knew that he would still be in the Song Dynasty and his family would still survive in the Song Dynasty. It was not wise to offend the court officials and powerful people of the Song Dynasty.

Just as he was about to refuse, Zhao Zhen spoke again, interrupting the noise in Xuande Building.

The voice suddenly became cold: "I have granted the title of King Zhongyi of the Royal Family of Khotan, not the title of Yuchi Linfeng! This is the title of his clan to protect China and never abandoned each other for thousands of years! How many foreign tribes and dynasties have surrendered to the glorious historical books? But how many can watch over each other for thousands of years!? Only in Khotan!"

Yuchi Linfeng's eyes turned red and he suddenly bowed: "Your Majesty's kindness is like a mountain and a mountain. I swear to follow the Song Dynasty to the death and follow the Zhao Song official family!"

Looking at Yuchi Linfeng's appearance of kneeling for a long time, the ministers remained silent. Some were moved, while others sighed in their hearts: The government is a good method...
