Chapter 286 The matter of the Domo Department is finally over
Chapter 286: The matter of Domo's tribe has finally been settled
Although Longmen Xi had become a direct citizen of the Tang Dynasty decades ago, and like other Tang people, he called the emperor the "emperor" instead of the "Tian Khan" commonly used by Rao Lexi and others, the change of affiliation cannot change the bloodline passed down from generation to generation.
No matter how the title of Emperor Tang is Emperor or Tian Khan, it cannot change the fact that Tu Yezhuo is a real Xi person.
As a Xi man, Tu Yezhuo's mood is very complicated today, especially when he saw Tu Xian at the beginning, Pingcuo and the two envoys begging for mercy in front of Tang Cheng. Even when he was waving his tail and begging for mercy, although he stood aside, he didn't say a word, but the sadness in his heart surged out like the surging river of the boundary, pouring it cool from the inside to the outside.
Maybe I am really old, so many times I feel softer and more and more like to recall the old scenes of ten, twenty, or even decades ago, which I have never seen before in his prosperous years. It is precisely because I like to recall the past, and compared with the scene I saw in front of me, the thick and deep sadness became deeper and deeper.
When did the Xiongba Raole and the proud descendants of the Wolf God fall to such an extent? Ten years ago, no, just two or three years ago, who among the Xi people would take a Sima of the Governor Raole’s Mansion seriously? Even the lowest-level slave kid also knew that the Tang Guaner who stayed in Sima’s Mansion was just a decoration of a clay Buddha, and he couldn’t help it. If something happened, people would rather ask for a small tribe leader with only one hundred people than run to Sima.
But now... Tu Yezhuo, the two envoys of Tuduo and Pingcuo, actually knew them. One of them was the younger brother of the patriarch and the other was the uncle of the patriarch. Judging from the blood relationship that the Xi people valued the most, they belonged to the most noble and superior people in the entire Raole Grassland. But such people are now bowing to Sima, the Tang Dynasty, who once could even sneer at the nose of a slave.
It only took two or three years, and the contrast between the front and back is so strong. How could a Xi person not be extremely sad to see this scene!
But what makes people even more sad is that the scene in front of me is just a small manifestation of the overall Xi tribe sliding into the abyss. After the sudden death of his former Xi King Li Yanji for many years, Rao Lexi began to fight for power due to the struggle for power. Finally, he has reached the point where more than 2,000 Xi soldiers took the initiative to ask for surrender to the Tang border generals.
There is one thing that Jia Zixing said wrong with this short-lived fighting man. No matter how dangerous and embarrassing Domogao's situation was in the Domogao tribe, he is now the nominal patriarch of the Domogao tribe, especially he is holding the bronze drum representing the symbol of the supreme power of the Domogao tribe.
If it weren't for a real Xi person, he would never understand the significance of the bronze drum in the hands of the clan leader. After countless generations of inheritance, this bronze drum is no longer just a symbol of the highest power in the clan for the Xi person tribe, but also the favor of the wolf god to a tribe, and the condensation of countless generations of inheritance of the entire tribe... It carries too many things. For any of the five Raole tribes, the significance of this bronze drum cannot be overestimated. However, now, this precious sacred object that should be worthy of life protection for the entire tribe, but was praised by Domogao in front of Jia Zixing as a "evidence" of surrender.
Although Tuyezhuo was not a citizen of the Domo tribe, as a Xi person, he also felt deep anger and humiliation. With such complex feelings, he did not want to see Domogao surrender. Such a guy who betrayed the wolf god and his ancestors should be killed with one knife.
Listening to Jia Zixing's toothache, Tu Yezhuo's hand tightened his hands holding the teacup. After Wufeng stirred up the teacup in the teacup and rippled around circles, he turned his eyes to Tang Cheng sitting on the other side.
Tu Yezhuo has been guarding the family in the rear these days, and has thrown all the affairs related to Tang Cheng in the tribe to his son Tu Yesi. So he is not very clear about some of the specific practices of Tang Cheng's intervention in the Raole Grassland, but that doesn't matter. He knows that Tang Cheng will still set the final tone for any matter involving the grassland.
Although Tang Cheng is very good at contacting in his daily interactions, he is far from the three-way style of the Tang Dynasty officials he has seen before. Even when it comes to disputes about interests, he can take the initiative to consider the other party's requirements and make appropriate considerations or even concessions. However, if you want to think that he is a good person, it is wrong to be outrageous in the world. Although he is very tolerant in the details, Tang Cheng is determined to be tough in the fundamental issues. Once he insists on something in his heart, it often means that the matter can only be done according to his will in the end. Unless you can convince him, the result of going against his will is to face revenge and countermeasures that will definitely bring heavy consequences.
So although this is Jia Zixing's secret account, and if Domogao wants to surrender, it is also Jia Zixing, as long as this matter involves intervention in the grassland, then Domogao's life or death, and at least 50% of the decision on his future fate is in Tang Cheng's hands.
Sure enough, Jia Zixing grinned and sucked for a while before turning his head to look at Tang Cheng, "Brother, why do you think about the right cooking?"
"What else can the court want these two thousand people besides having a long face? Leave it to me." Tang Cheng's words were straightforward, but Jia Zixing's face was filled with deep regret. After sucking his mouth like a toothache again, he waved his hand listlessly to the captain who was passing the message, "Go and bring people in."
Seeing this scene, Tu Yezhuo smiled knowingly while muttering, could these two people have made another deal? Otherwise, how could Jia Zixing be so easy to talk to? Tang Cheng was willing to spit out the great achievements he had in his mouth with just one sentence?
At this time, Tang Cheng was also secretly grateful that the letter Li Longji gave Jia Zixing came in time, otherwise it would have been so smooth now.
After a while, Domogao, holding a bronze drum in his hands, walked in under the clamping of two strong schools. Since he first arrived at the grassland that day, he met on the terrace of the Raole Governor's Mansion, this was the second time Tang Cheng met Domogao. Compared with the last time he met, Domogao is obviously thinner now, and his blood-covered eyes are covered with ruthlessness and a lot of hardness.
As soon as he entered the tent, he saw Tang Cheng looking at him with interest. Domogao's body tightened, but at this time he could not regret it anymore. His eyes flashed over Tang Cheng and then he bowed to the ground with a bronze drum in his hand. "Domogao, the chief of the Domo tribe of the Raole Xi tribe, brought two thousand elite members to the Tang Dynasty. From then on, he will be loyal and obedient for generations and will never rebel. Please help the Lord Duwei."
"What a pity, the four-turn military merits that were pinched with a handful were gone." Jia Zixing sat up and looked at Domo carefully, sighed with regret and waved his hand indifferently, "Come on, take it!"
Since Domogao made this surrender the last way to die, he naturally thought deeply. He thought that no Tang Dynasty border general could resist such a great temptation, but he did not expect that as soon as he walked into Jia Zixing's tent, he encountered such an outing. For a moment, he suddenly felt cold and wanted to resist violently. The scimitar on his body had been taken away as soon as he crossed the bridge. What could he use to fight naked? It was after a change of mind that he had been pressed to the ground by two close-knife staff. The bronze drum, which symbolized the supreme power of the Domo tribe, rolled towards Tang Cheng after it landed on the ground.
Tang Cheng raised his feet and stepped on them, and the bronze drum was honestly placed on the soles of his feet, "This is a famous warrior on the grassland. Be careful. When taking the rope, be sure to tie it firmly."
The two small school who followed the people looked at Jia Zixing after hearing this. The Duwei glared at him in anger, "Why do you think I'm doing? Follow Lord Sima's instructions."
It was just this stupid skill that Domogao, who had not resisted before, suddenly rose up. The two schools could not control him. After the guy got up, he did not go to find Jia Zixing who ordered him to take him. He raised his arms and rushed straight towards Tang Cheng. Seeing his crazy and violent expression, it seemed as if Tang Cheng had a deep hatred for killing his father and taking his wife.
This sudden situation was shocked by Jia Zixing and Tu Yezhuo, and the two primary schools changed their faces and wanted to make up for it. However, they were still slowing down. On the contrary, Tang Cheng, the target figure, did not panic. Seeing that Tu Yezhuo was about to approach, he flipped his wrists, and the small crossbow in his sleeve made a "clang" sound, shooting out a cluster of shiny crossbow arrows.
Domogao fell down in response, and half of the crossbow arrows as long as the middle finger were nailed into his thighs.
Tang Cheng played with the extremely small crossbow in his hand, and suddenly remembered the scene when he first met Domogao. "I originally thought that there was no chance again, but now it seems that God is really willing to do it. It should be yours, and it's yours, but I've been waiting for a while."
Maybe because he didn't want to be humiliated anymore, Duo Mogao, who fell to the ground and forced himself to endure the pain, didn't say a word, which really made Tang Cheng feel a little disappointed.
Domogao was pressed to the ground again. The two nervous school students were very annoyed. They took this opportunity to use all their strength to feed themselves. One of the dark-hearted hands made a small move, pushing the exposed crossbow arrow into another piece, causing Domogao's whole body to tremble like a fish leaving the water.
While binding Dumogao here, another school outside came in quickly, "Report to the Duwei, fighting across the Jiehe River started."
"Looking at my calmness just now, I knew that Dumogao would go crazy, which made me frightened me in vain." Jia Zixing waved casually to the school that came to report the news, and Gu Zi smiled and said to Tang Cheng: "This is a crossbow. I have heard it in Li Changshi, who was in charge of military weapons in the Governor's Office. Only Chang'an will be the prison in the world to make this thing. It can only produce sixty or seventy pieces a year, and it is all controlled by the Zongren Temple. I can get such a powerful weapon for the royal family to defend themselves, and what are the good methods?"
Jia Zixing's words are very important to the word "royal family".
Tang Cheng knew what he meant, but he did not explain that the crossbow was originally from Zheng Lingyi. Since he wanted to associate it with Li Longji, let him go. "I have had a long time with this guy, and I'm more or less wary of him when I saw him. As for Lianxiu Crossbow, I have to have some small means of protecting myself in a place of right and wrong."
"This method is quite a bit of a problem," Jia Zixing withdrew his gaze from the Lianxiu crossbow and pointed at the heretic, "How to deal with the matter on the other side?"
"No matter who escapes back and gets someone, it is not appropriate to not let him vent his anger. Let them fight for a while," Tang Cheng said with a smile and looked sideways at Tu Yezhuo sitting on the side, "Captain Tu Ye, I'll ask you to borrow some powerful subordinates."
Tu Yezhuo's thoughts were still in Jia Zixing's words just now, and the roots of Tang Cheng were really deep into the Chang'an Palace City? It was not until Tang Cheng turned his head and spoke to him that he took back his somewhat deep thoughts, "It's easy to say, how many people do you want?"
"It's enough to have seven or eight. By the way, please bring Nadomochi with you in the same way."
When Tu Yezhuo stood up and was about to leave the tent, he clearly endured it and said, "I also wanted to ask the adults to raise their feet. This bronze drum is not an object to use for footholds." As he said, someone else had already arrived in front of Tang Cheng and bowed to the ground to hold the bronze drum and brushed it carefully. He then put it on the small table and put it out of the tent.
"The taste in this sentence is a bit wrong." After seeing the picture, Jia Zixing touched his chin and said in a deep voice: "If it is not my race, his heart will be different."
Tang Cheng traveled through time from later generations. He had been influenced by the TV and newspapers for a long time and knew the complexity of ethnic issues. He had a little understanding of the psychology behind Tu Yezhuo's sudden actions. He just smiled when he heard this, "The Chief Commander is thinking too much."
"My four thousand subordinates are not enough for you, so why do you need his people?" Jia Zixing disagreed with Tang Cheng's attitude. "In addition, brother, are you really going to support Domochi? This guy has been studying in Chang'an since he was seven years old. He is lucky this time when he came back. He happened to be in a fight outside the Governor Raole's mansion. He barely followed the example of "brothers and brothers" to pick up the patriarch. However, although others are lucky, they are a fool who has studied hard and are not familiar with grassland affairs. What's the use of such a person?"
The prosperous and developing culture of the Tang Dynasty had a strong radiation effect on surrounding countries and nations. At this time, not only Japan and Silla sent a large number of envoys to send Tang Dynasty, but even the rulers of the grassland and many Western Regions sent their children to Chang'an for study and education. These people often stayed in Chang'an for several years and for more than ten years, and some even directly participated in the imperial examination organized by the Ministry of Rites of the Tang Dynasty as "bin Gongsheng" and then became officials in the Tang Dynasty. The "anomaly" in the eyes of the Xi people, Domochi, also belonged to this situation.
"If I hadn't thought of his experience, maybe he wouldn't have lived now. A person with the appearance of a Xi person and Tang people's heart is hard to find here. It would be a pity to waste it." Tang Chengbing gently tapped the bronze drum on the small table beside him with his fingers and continued: "As for the people who want to use Tuye patriarch, it is to let them follow Domochi to clean up the chaos on the other side of the river. It's best for Xi people to do such a thing. Since the entire Domo tribe has been held in his hands, why bother with this little thing?"
