Chapter 61 World Title
"Two hundred miles." Muragu had to raise the price again.
Wu Zetian was too lazy to even speak, but she had the upper hand anyway.
"Three...hundreds...li." Muragu gritted his teeth and said word by word.
His face was a little distorted and ugly, as if someone had dug up his ancestral grave.
"Five hundred miles." Seeing that the temperature was almost done, Wu Zetian decided to add another yard to get more benefits.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Muragu roared in his throat, as if thunderous, and fire was about to spurt out of his eyes.
"I won't talk about it if I'm missing five hundred miles." Wu Zetian said with a firm tone.
"Five hundred miles away, your country will be in Khorasan. Your Majesty is very scheming. If the soldiers don't have blood, they will put the sharp sword on my neck. This is impossible, absolutely impossible." Mulagu's face twisted and he shouted loudly.
He was right. If the Arab Empire ceded five hundred miles of land to the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty would be very close to Khorasan, which was like a sharp sword aimed at the former Persian land. As long as the Tang Dynasty freed up its hands and mobilized a large army, it would be able to attack the former Persian land.
This has touched his bottom line, and he has no choice but to yell.
"If Your Majesty Lion opens his mouth and asks for a land of five hundred miles, then I will say goodbye." Muragu clasped his fists at Wu Zetian, turned around angrily, and was about to leave.
"Please give me a favor." Wu Zetian had no intention of keeping her.
Wu Zetian knew very well that "friendly relationship" with the Arab Empire was just a beak, and no one would take it seriously. As long as one party freed up his hand, he would fight against the other party.
The Tang Dynasty was unable to move westward due to the rebellion of the Turks and could not deal with the Arab Empire.
Similarly, the Arab Empire was also working hard to suppress the rebellion and was unable to deal with the Tang Dynasty.
Otherwise, the two countries would have fought in Central Asia long ago.
"Please stay." The ministers looked at Muragu coldly, no one wanted to keep him. Whether he left or stayed, it had little impact on the Tang Dynasty. However, some people tried to keep him, which was Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi.
These two men have long wanted to interrupt, but they don’t know much about the Arab Empire and can’t even interrupt. Now, they can finally interfere.
"Yes." Wu Zetian was a little surprised and glanced at the two of them.
Muragu was unwilling to leave and stopped immediately after hearing this. This time he was on a mission to the Tang Dynasty. Even if he could not successfully negotiate with the Tang Dynasty, he would at least have to stabilize the Tang Dynasty and let the Tang Dynasty not interfere in Persian affairs.
"Your Majesty, the envoy of the Great Food has traveled thousands of miles to Shendu. Needless to say, why should the country above the Heavenly Kingdom be careful about the land?" Wu Sansi hurriedly said to Wu Zetian: "The Western Regions are barren lands, and the products are poor, what is the purpose? It is better to give great food. The two countries get along well with each other, which will benefit both countries."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Wu Chengsi also came to help and said, "The Western Regions are vast, but there are very few people. The Great Zhou stationed troops in the four towns of the Western Regions, and consumed too much money and food every year. If they get into evil with Dashi again, the two countries will spend billions of dollars."
Not to mention that in the minds of the Tang people, even in the minds of modern people, the Western Regions were also a bitter and cold place with shortage of materials. There were many ministers who held this view, and immediately many people agreed.
"I'm going to discuss it!"
"I'm going to discuss it!"
The echo sounds were heard one after another, like thunder.
"Short-sighted!" Li Longji heard it and felt extremely disdainful in his heart: "Fortunately these two idiots did not become emperors, otherwise they would have lost all the Western Regions."
"You two are so big, and you can make hundreds of miles of land with one move." Li Longji was about to refute, but Di Renjie stepped forward and said coldly to Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi: "You two know about the Western Regions? Can you two know how big the territory of Dashi? How many people have? How many soldiers are there?"
Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi didn't know anything about the Arab Empire, so they didn't know about this. They were speechless when asked.
"Dashi was only tens of thousands at the beginning, but now it has a million soldiers; Dashi was only a barren land at the beginning, but now it is a territory of thousands of miles, not smaller than the Celestial Empire." Di Renjie's voice was very clear, and he resounded throughout the hall, saying: "Now, Dashi and the Celestial Empire are only separated by three or two thousand miles. If one day, these three or two thousand miles of land cannot be stopped and the two countries are bordered, then, once the two countries meet, what do you want to resist?"
"Yes." Many ministers agreed with this.
"Die Renjie is Di Renjie, and this vision is very impressive!" Li Longjida admired it from the bottom of his heart.
"Old Guo, are you exaggerating?" Wu Sansi was so angry when he saw Di Renjie talking. If Di Renjie hadn't opposed it strongly, he would have been the prince. He immediately retorted loudly and said, "Do you want to make a contribution?"
"Yes, the eldest son of the country is too worried." Many ministers immediately agreed, including the Wu family's minions and short-sighted ministers.
Not every minister has the vision of Di Renjie.
"Think too much? A joke!" Li Longji sneered, took over the conversation, and said, "It will become true sooner or later. If you don't prepare today, how can you regret it then?"
"Li Longji, don't be lying nonsense and committing crimes." Wu Chengsi took over the conversation and scolded Li Longji.
"You are talking nonsense." Li Longji responded toughly, saying, "Do you know what their one-eyed dragon governor wants to do the most? What he wants to do most is to fight the Heavenly Kingdom and conquer the Heavenly Kingdom."
"Buzz!" As soon as Li Longji finished speaking, the palace immediately exploded. The ministers shook their heads fiercely and didn't believe it at all.
Even Di Renjie was shaking his head and didn't believe it.
Di Renjie has a unique vision. He said the above words because he saw possible changes in the future, not because he knew Yousuf's ambitions.
"Sanlang, don't talk nonsense." Wu Zetian didn't believe it either.
But Muragu's face changed and he looked at Li Longji like a ghost. Yusuf was determined to conquer China, and he knew, but this was a top secret. Only Yusuf's confidant knew that Li Longji actually knew. He really couldn't understand how Li Longji knew.
"Talking nonsense?" Li Longji was speechless, and this would soon become a reality.
In the early years of Kaiyuan, Gu Taibai, the general under Yousufu, pointed directly at the Tang Dynasty and came to Xinjiang, China, and was repelled by the Tang Dynasty. Calculate the time, there were only 14 or 15 years left.
"As a thousand years ago, there was a madman named Alexander who wanted to fight to the Heavenly Kingdom. In the end, he fought to the Heavenly Kingdom." Li Longji's tone turned high and said, "I think, do you know this?"
"I know." Alexander the Great tried to conquer China in the east, but because of a map error, he rushed to the Ganges basin in India. Wu Zetian knew about this.
"I have heard of it too." Di Renjie nodded.
"Is this really a matter?" Many ministers didn't know about this and asked blankly.
Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi didn't know anything about this matter at all. They wanted to speak, but they didn't know where to start.
"A thousand years ago, there were such a madman who wanted to conquer the Celestial Empire. Now, what's so strange about such a madman? Even if there is not at present, who can guarantee that there will be no future?" Li Longji's tone turned higher.
"It's reasonable! It's reasonable!" Wu Zetian was the first to agree and said, "I have to be careful about this."
Although she still didn't believe that Yousuf wanted to conquer the Tang Dynasty, she had to be careful.
"Five hundred miles of land must not be missing." Wu Zetian rushed to the ancient Mura Road.
"Your Majesty, there are too many 500 miles. If Your Majesty insists on doing this, you might as well bet." Muragu had no intention of giving in, and thought for a while.
"Gambling? What's the gambling?" Wu Zetian was a little surprised.
"If my country encounters difficult things, it can be solved through duels. The two countries are stalemate, and can be solved by betting." Muragu raised his head and said, "I have a problem. If your country can solve it, I will be willing to give up the disadvantage. If your country cannot solve it, it will be more than just handing over the Persian royal family."
"What do you want?" Wu Zetian's beautiful eyebrows frowned.
"One is to hand over the Persian royal family, two is to give our country a million silver taels per year, and three is to give our country the decree to apologize to our country." Muragu's tone was very high, and everyone in the hall could hear it clearly.
"Shut up." The ministers shouted loudly.
These three conditions are too harsh and they are very angry.
"Then what can you take out?" Wu Zetian asked.
"Everything is as said by Your Majesty, five hundred miles away." Muragu said.
"Since it's a gamble, it's not a 500-mile land, it's a 1,000-mile land." Wu Zetian's lion spoke up.
"This..." Muragu hesitated for a while and said, "Okay! One thousand miles is one thousand miles."
"I have my own opinions on how to make a decision, and you don't need this bet. However, there are many talents in the Celestial Kingdom. If you have any tricks, just use them." Wu Zetian's eyes shining brightly.
