Chu He stood up at this time and said to Zhao Ziliang: "The general was right before.
The ministers and I did not want to lose too many troops and did not want the people to suffer the loss of life, so the whole country surrendered.
The cannibalism is nothing more than to If you want to preach and ask for some food and rare treasures, just give them to them.
But if you fight against them, it will be a disaster.
The way to the destruction of a country is that our country, Kang, is small and weak, and is no match for the big food country.
The king and his ministers are by no means greedy for life and afraid of death as the general said, and they dare not fight against the big food people.
All the soldiers of the country of Kang are not afraid of death.
Soldier, if the general doesn't believe it, he can order the little king to be dragged down and beheaded now.
If the little king snorts, he is not a descendant of our country of Kang."
Zhao Ziliang snorted coldly: "Why do you think this general doesn't dare to kill your comer?
I dragged Chu He out and chopped him up."
"Nuo" Bulhan rushed over with a few wolves and tiger-like soldiers of the Tang Army, dragging Chu Hue out.
At this time, Liu Bingyan, the envoy of the Anxi Protectorate in Kangguo, stood up hurriedly and said: "General, please allow me to say a few words."
Zhao Ziliang glanced at Liu Bingyan and shouted to Bo Lahan: "Stop" Several Tang Army soldiers who dragged Chu He stopped at the entrance of the main hall on Bolehan's order.
Zhao Ziliang looked at Liu Bingyan and asked, "Master Liu, what do you have to say?"
Liu Bingyan cupped his hands and said: "General, Xiaguan has been in Kangguo for a long time.
King Chuhe succeeded to the throne the same year that Xiaguan came to Kangguo.
In the past few years, everything King Kang has done has been noticed by Xiaguan.
To be fair, Rong Xiaguan said that although King Kang was not as talented as the previous kings, he and his ministers were by no means greedy for life and afraid of death.
After King Kang succeeded to the throne, he immediately reduced the penalties and corvee services in the country, allowing the people of Kang to cultivate their health and recuperate, allowing many soldiers to go home to farm and engage in production, which reduced the military expenditure of the Kang court.
This shows that he is considerate of the people's sufferings, and He still often goes out hunting with only a small number of guards, which shows that he is brave and not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death."
Zhao Ziliang listened to Liu Bingyan's words, thought for a while, and waved to Bo Lehan.
Bo Lehan immediately asked the soldiers of the Tang Army to drag Chu He back.
"Chu He, Mr.
Liu will intercede for you.
According to him, you should be a very promising and wise king, right?
You did nothing wrong in surrendering the Dashi Army.
It was the general who was wrong.
The general should not have led the army.
Come here, are you right?"
Chu He said quickly: "No, no, general, it's true that the little king and the ministers were wrong.
The cannibals are greedy.
The little king thought they were just preaching and asking for some food and grass, but he didn't expect that they were in our country of Kang.
They plundered wantonly, plundered without giving, and killed innocent women indiscriminately and insulted virtuous women.
Many women in our country have been ruined by them.
Damn it, if Xiao Wang had known that they were so virtuous."
The more Chu He spoke, the angrier he became, with veins popping out on his forehead and saliva flying everywhere.
Zhao Ziliang waited for him to finish and asked: "So you regret surrendering to cannibalism?"
Chu He nodded and sighed: "Yes, Xiao Wang regrets it.
Xiao Wang took it too much for granted.
The cannibal is cruel by nature.
He came to our country of Kang and ruined it into a mess and everything in just two months."
Yi, if the general had not led the troops to attack, our country, Kang, would have been harmed by the cannibals."
Zhao Ziliang looked at Chu He for a full two minutes before looking away, focusing on the other ministers, and asked: "Where are you?"
"The ministers and others also regret it."

Zhao Ziliang asked again: "What if the army comes again?"
Chuhe and the ministers said in unison this time: "If the Great Food Army comes again, we will send people to inform the Tang Dynasty immediately and ask the Tang Dynasty to send troops for help.
In addition, we are also actively preparing for war.
If there is a disparity in strength, we will Fight and retreat, and fight with the food army to the end."
"Very good."
Zhao Ziliang raised his hand: "Master Kang, please get up and watch."
Chu He and his ministers quickly saluted and said, "Thank you very much, General."
The soldiers and palace attendants quickly brought stools, and Chu He and his ministers sat down carefully.
Zhao Ziliang said again: "Lord and gentlemen, this general has forgiven you, but it does not mean that the emperor and the court have also forgiven you.
This time you have defected to the Dashi Army and refused to accept our request to send troops.
The emperor and the court have forgiven you."
The court will definitely be furious.
You'd better send people to Chang'an as soon as possible to see the emperor, pay tribute, and apologize to the emperor and the court.
If it's too late, it will be too late when the emperor's imperial decree comes down.
You Do you understand?"
Chu He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said quickly: "Xiao Wang understands.
I understand that Xiao Wang will arrange for a delegation to go to Chang'an tomorrow to see the emperor and apologize."
"Okay, you guys go down, I want to have a chat with Mr.
Liu alone."
"Xiao Wang and others are leaving" The hall was completely cleared in the blink of an eye, leaving only Zhao Ziliang, Liu Bingyan, Bo Lehan and a few Tang Army soldiers.
All the palace attendants were driven out.
Zhao Ziliang said to Liu Bingyan: "I have to thank Mr.
Liu for coming to intercede for him just now, otherwise this general would really not be able to come to power.
If he really kills Chu He, not only will the imperial court blame him, but even Kang Guo will also be hostile to him in the future.
I am the Tang Dynasty" Liu Bingyan cupped his hands and said with a smile: "General, your words are serious.
Resigning an official is just a simple task.
The general led troops to Kang State this time.
It was a wonderful move.
It also gave Kang State and other Zhaowu countries a great shock.
In the past few years, The power of the Dashi Kingdom expanded to the east, and the Zhaowu Kingdom and the Tocharian chieftains gradually became unable to withstand it.
He resisted the pressure and took refuge.
The Shendu in the south was now torn apart and could not resist the invasion of the Big Eater.
I heard that many local chiefs in Shendu had surrendered to the Big Eater.
The Big Eater's power in the east was expanding too fast.
If our Tang Dynasty does not make preparations in advance, I am afraid that sooner or later we will be invaded by the cannibals."
Zhao Ziliang nodded.
He couldn't help but look at Liu Bingyan with admiration.
This person obviously saw the harm of cannibalism to the East.
This may be related to the fact that he has always been in Kangguo.
In the next few days, Zhao Ziliang ordered the purchase of grain in various parts of Kang State.
The tribal leaders of the ten surnames wanted grain to use as spoils of war.
He did not have so much grain for them now, so he could only purchase it in Zhaowu Kingdom and Tochara.
There has been a war some time ago, and the Zhaowu Kingdom has been exploited by the big food country.
Therefore, the price of food is a bit high.
However, it is obviously impossible for Zhao Ziliang to pay a high price for the purchase.

He is not taken advantage of, but even though the purchase price is not high, the official of the Zhaowu Kingdom We still have to sell the grain to him.
At least he is much better than the big cannibal.
The big cannibal doesn’t give any money at all and will grab whatever he likes.
Comparing these two, Tang Jun is much cuter than the big cannibal.
King Chuyue of Kang was also glad that he made the right choice.
In the next few days, the heads of the Zhaowu kingdoms rushed to Samajian City and met Zhao Ziliang in the palace.
On September 21st, Zhao Ziliang summoned the kings of the Zhaowu kingdoms at the palace in Chuhe and gave them a severe reprimand and warning.
If they continued to act as wallflowers as before, and the wind blew them both sides, the Tang Dynasty would definitely fall.
You won't be polite to them.
These kings were so frightened that they all promised Zhao Ziliang that if the food army came again in the future, they would form an alliance to resist it together, and at the same time ask for help from the Tang Dynasty.
King Chuhe of Kang also stood up and asked Zhao Ziliang: "Please send a heavenly army to garrison in Samajian City.
The cost of deterring the cannibals will be borne by all the Zhaowu countries."
Zhao Ziliang touched his chin, thinking that this is a good deal.
It can raise and train troops without spending any money.
Where can such a good thing be found?
But he can't make the decision on this matter.
After all, the Zhaowu Kingdoms and Tuhuo Kingdoms Luo is the territory under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Protectorate.
Such matters must be reported to the Anxi Protectorate, who will then report it to the imperial court for a decision.
Zhao Ziliang said to Chu He and other kings: "This matter is considered feasible by the general, but it still needs to be reported to the court for a decision.
The kings can wait patiently for the news."
After the leaders of the various countries returned, Zhao Ziliang immediately led his army to continue southward, passing through the country of Mi and the country of Shi, and then passed the Iron Gate Pass and entered the Tocharian country.
At this time, there were many powerful chiefs in Tochara, there was no central court at all, the political power was not unified, and the power was scattered.
This was one of the reasons why they were unable to resist the food army.
After Daoud mobilized all the food troops stationed here, there were no more food troops here.
The Tochar chiefs also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, after they heard the news that the Tang army was marching south, They all had their hearts in their throats again.
Even during the periods of Taizong and Gaozong, the Tang Dynasty never sent troops directly to the Tocharian Kingdom.
At that time, the Tocharian Kingdom also sent people to Chang'an to meet with them and asked for annexation, so the Tang Dynasty sent officials to the Tocharian countries.
The emperor's decree was announced and governor's offices were established in various parts of Tochara.
The governors were appointed by local chiefs, that is, It is said that Tochara was only a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty in name only.
The Tang Dynasty never sent troops to show off its force.
However, this time Zhao Ziliang led an army of more than 20,000 people to come here for the first time in history.
This frightened the powerful chiefs of Tochara.
They have more than 20,000 soldiers and horses.
This number is simply an astronomical number for the Tocharian chiefs.
Gao Xianzhi had just won a great victory in the Xiaobolu Kingdom, which scared the small countries at the foot of the western Pamir Plateau and trembled.
Who knew that the Tang Dynasty would be more ruthless this time and directly sent 20,000 troops?
Okay, isn't this going to scare him to death?
No matter it is a small country or a big country, no matter whether it is a rich chief or a poor chief, they all come with their personal guards to greet Zhao Ziliang's army, fearing that Zhao Ziliang will find excuses to repair them.
The area of Tocharia is not small, and it is impossible for Zhao Ziliang to lead the whole army in a circle.
He only stopped at Bushi City, the former home of the Wangting Prefecture Governor's Mansion, and the chiefs of Tocharo came to Bushi City one after another.
Meet Zhao Ziliang in the city.
The endless military tents are arranged in an orderly manner without any mess.
The distance between the military tents is not bad at all and they are neatly arranged.
The horses are galloping in the military camp, and the sound of the soldiers' drills is like thunder.

Only close to the military camp, the Tocharian heroes The chiefs felt that the sense of oppression was gradually increasing.
Although they, as local tycoons, had seen a lot of things in the world, they had never seen so many soldiers and horses, and the soldiers and horses were strong.
The Tocharian chiefs who were invited to the military camp by Zhao Ziliang were all honest and did not dare to do anything extraordinary.
After seeing Zhao Ziliang, the chiefs presented the gifts they brought, and some gave A lot of food and grass came, some used horse-drawn carriages to bring gold and silver, and there were many colorful Zhao Ziliang was not polite about the beautiful gems and accepted them all according to the order.
After accepting these tributes, Zhao Ziliang did not give them a good look and scolded them severely, saying that they should not take refuge in the cannibals and should pick up swords and guns.
Fight to the end with the big cannibal, otherwise how can they live up to the reputation of their ancestors?
The Tocharian chiefs were all punished by Zhao Ziliang so that they all drooped their heads.
They all expressed that they would fight to the end with the cannibals in the future.
At the same time, they also stated that they would immediately send envoys to Chang'an to meet the emperor and request to be annexed again.
Zhao Ziliang did not comment on this
