Chapter 260: Truly smooth diplomacy, Your Majesty!
"Can't it be protected?" Li Qianshun asked back and then fell silent.
He remembered that yesterday his General Helian Tieshu was captured alive by Murong Fei under Murong Fu's command. Although this was a minor friction, it demonstrated the completely different combat effectiveness of the two armies.
The Ming Dynasty was a new regime with even greater martial virtue than the Song Dynasty.
Even if a real war were fought, to be honest, his army of 200,000 might not be able to defeat the former Song Dynasty, let alone the current Ming Dynasty.
What's more, Murong Fu could still fly in the air. Li Qianshun had no doubt at all about what his mother said: as long as Murong Fu's true energy did not dissipate, he would always be invincible.
Daxia really can’t beat Ming!
"Since you already have the answer in your heart, why ask again?" Murong Fu said, "I let Xixia become the husband-wife country of the Ming Dynasty to give face to Sister Qiushui, Uncle Qiushui and Qinglu, and to leave some respect for Xixia. If I want to destroy Xixia, it will be easy. The Dangxiang tribe has only two million people. Does your father-in-law think that I, Murong Fu, don't even have the determination to kill two million people?"
Historically, the Dangxiang people were exterminated by the Mongols. Although not all of them were massacred by the Mongols, the Dangxiang nation completely disappeared in the long river of history.
The writing, civilization, and language of Western Xia were all destroyed.
The history of Western Xia was recorded by the people of the Song Dynasty, just as the history of Dali was also recorded by the people of the Song Dynasty.
Although this area often referred to itself as Western Xia in later generations, it was just like the Holy Roman Empire, neither holy, nor Roman, nor an empire.
Compared with the Mongols' permanent solution, Murong Fu was willing to offer a merciful solution, really out of consideration for his wife and grandmother.
"My dear son-in-law, the country of our Great Xia was also founded bit by bit by our ancestors with great difficulty. In the past, the Song Dynasty could accommodate the Great Xia, so why can't you, my dear son-in-law?" Li Qianshun recognized the situation, but was still sad about the actual demise of Western Xia. He couldn't help but say in a pleading tone.
Murong Fu's face darkened, and he said sternly: "Father-in-law, don't forget that I am not Song Renzong of the previous dynasty. I have been a commoner in the martial arts world for twenty years. I have defeated all heroes and killed all enemies. I am a tough guy who can go through fire and water! Back then, I was a commoner, but I killed all the members of the Jin King's party in front of you, father-in-law. Don't you know how strong and unyielding I am? Not to mention Daxia, even Khitan, I will destroy it! Doesn't father-in-law still want to resist stubbornly? "
Li Qianshun was speechless for a moment, he recalled again the summer of the third year of Tianyoumin'an, when Murong Fu, a commoner, killed the King of Jin and the nobles, causing rivers of blood in Western Xia, proving to himself his determination to rebel.
Li Qianshun recalled, smiled bitterly and sighed in his heart, oh, he should have thought of it earlier!
How could someone like Murong Fu share the world with others?
This man is truly a great leader!
"It seems that you are not allowed to lie on the bed sideways because someone else is sleeping soundly!" Li Qianshun sighed.
Murong Fu said: "Since the first emperor unified the six kingdoms, the general trend of the world has been that divisions will eventually unite, that is, great unification! The previous dynasty was incompetent, so there were many kingdoms! Now that I have established the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will naturally unify China and bridge the north and the south. I will destroy the Song Dynasty, destroy the Xia Dynasty, destroy Dali, destroy the Liao Dynasty, and destroy Tubo! This prosperous land of China will naturally return to one!"
"You seem to have a father-in-law in Dali as well, right?" Li Qianshun thought of Murong Fu's other father-in-law and couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.
Having a virtuous son-in-law like Murong Fu is truly a sin!
"It's Duan Zhengchun, the King of Zhennan in Dali. I married his six daughters. He is six times more powerful than me!" Murong Fu laughed, "But we'll drink together from the golden cup, but we won't spare each other. When I left Dali, I told him and Duan Zhengming that I would bring 100,000 soldiers to Dali. They just laughed it off, not knowing that I was serious. I wonder how they will feel when we meet again."
Li Qianshun said: "You married six daughters of someone else and you also want to destroy his country. Murong Fu, you are really a ruthless person. I deserve to lose."
"Don't worry, father-in-law, I am filial. If you didn't have a substitute, I would have made you the Duke of Anle and established a kingdom for you in Barat." Murong Fu said, "The territory of China must be unified, but outside China, there is a vast world with great potential. I will follow the example of the Zhou Dynasty and divide the world, expand China, divide the real world, and send the descendants of Yan and Huang to every corner of the world to let them develop. After hundreds of years, just like the Zhou Dynasty, this small world will belong to China. I will also have made an immortal contribution to the Chinese people."
Li Qianshun said: "Zhou divided the world, but it led to the princes becoming more powerful, and Zhou became weaker and weaker, and was destroyed by Qin, which raised horses for it. Is your Ming Dynasty going to be the same?"
"Is there any dynasty that truly lasts for thousands of years in this world? I have reached the realm of a true immortal on earth and can live for more than 200 years, but I dare not guarantee that my dynasty will last for thousands of years." Murong Fu said, "However, people don't have to be so narrow-minded. Matter is indestructible, it is just shattered! Let the Ming Dynasty perish, that day may be hundreds of years, or even thousands of years later. Let it rain if it wants to, and let my mother marry if she wants to!"
At this moment, Li Qianshun was completely overwhelmed by Murong Fu's courage and said sincerely, "You are truly a heroic leader. I am far from being as good as you! How do you plan to deal with me?"
"The Duke of Anle is gone." Murong Fu said, "After all, you, father-in-law, have become a substitute. But this is also a good thing. Some people are alive but seem to be dead, while some people die but can live forever. I will still build a country for my father-in-law in Bharat. There is a caste system and a tropical climate there, which is very suitable for foreign invaders to be the superior people there. With a new identity, my father-in-law will build a country in Bharat and become a Brahmin. From now on, he will always be a high caste for thousands of generations. Isn't it beautiful?"
Afterwards, Murong Fu told Li Qianshun everything about Barat.
When Li Qianshun learned that the people of Bharat were so easy to rule and when he learned that the caste system was a good thing, his heart was moved.
Oh, okay, okay!
If you succeed, you will dominate China. If you fail, you can go to Bharat and become a Brahmin!
night.
In Murong Fu's tent.
Outside the tent, there were a large number of Xixia eunuchs serving, and there was also a eunuch holding a pen and ink, recording all the important events of Li Qinglu.
Actually, it is the "Daily Records". After becoming an emperor, there is a "Daily Records" to record every detail of the emperor, especially important "diplomatic activities", which can ensure the purity of the royal bloodline and there will never be any illegitimate children.
When compiling history books in the future, historians would refer to the emperor's "Daily Records".
Therefore, the Twenty-Four Histories are truly the family affairs of emperors, recording the emperors and generals of all dynasties. Some miracle doctors and scientists were able to leave their names in history because of their interactions with emperors and generals.
Murong Fu will reform this in the future, but for now he should follow the local customs. However, Murong Fu does not like being surrounded by eunuchs and palace maids, so he sends them out of the tent.
At this moment, the Western Xia Queen Li Qinglu and the Ming Emperor Murong Fu were preparing to launch diplomatic activities.
Murong Fu grasped Li Qinglu's advantages with both hands and said seriously: "Qinglu, you are an emperor, and I am also an emperor, but I have not yet ascended the throne, but I am already the de facto emperor. You represent the Great White Gao Kingdom, which is indeed big, white and tall. I represent the Ming Dynasty and want to inject the essence of the Ming Dynasty into your Great White Gao Kingdom. This is truly a smooth diplomacy. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there is no better diplomacy than this."
In order to make the story more immersive, Murong Fu specially asked Li Qinglu to put on the yellow robe of Western Xia, and he also put on the yellow robe of the Song Dynasty. The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty wanted to severely ravage the Emperor of Western Xia, which is the true meaning of the country of husband and wife.
Of course, the purpose was still to reproduce offspring, and Murong Fu tried very hard to make Li Qinglu pregnant.
"Emperors of the Ming Dynasty, please teach me a lesson as a barbarian! I am also a barbarian and I just need the great Ming Dynasty's teachings of the kingly way!" Li Qinglu cooperated very well and said with seductive eyes.
"Then I won't be polite!" Murong Fu laughed, "I will invade your country fiercely!"
The two of them made love to each other.
Emperor Murong raped the Queen of Western Xia. The scene was really great and both of them were very satisfied.
After the tenderness, Li Qinglu lay in Murong Fu's arms, stretched out her wrist, let Murong Fu feel her pulse, and asked: "My lord, am I pregnant?"
"Oh, she's pregnant. It seems that our revelry these days is really effective." Murong Fu said happily, "Qinglu, give birth to this child for me. I will let him go to Xixia as a vassal king and grant him some countries in the Arabian Peninsula. There is oil underground there. My child will be rich in the future."
"Yeah." Although Li Qinglu didn't understand, she was still very happy and took the initiative to kiss Murong Fu.
The two men's diplomatic activities became more frequent and lasted for a whole night.
the next day.
The Western Xia army began to retreat. Li Qiushui and Li Qinglu bid farewell to Murong Fu temporarily. They were going to return to their country with an army of 200,000 to carry out a purge, mainly to purge the remnants of the Dangxiang nobles and the Li royal family, and to eliminate all political opponents physically.
This is something that is very easy to do. Li Qinglu has the Ming Western Army, the 200,000-strong Xixia army, and the support of Li Qiu Shui. Those insects in Xixia are really insects and can be killed with just a pinch.
Li Qinglu and Murong Fu bid farewell to each other reluctantly, and under the escort of 200,000 Western Xia troops, they evacuated Huanqing Road and returned to Western Xia.
After making some personnel adjustments, Murong Fu prepared to enter Chengdu Prefecture with his 100,000 Ming troops.
This is the last territory of the Song Dynasty.
Unfortunately, the people of Bashu were not loyal to the Song Dynasty, otherwise there would not have been the uprisings of Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun.
Now the general trend of the world has gradually become clear, and Murong Fu's trend of unifying the world has emerged. Many people in Bashu are serving as officials in the court, such as Su Che.
After they understood the general situation, and the two major armies of Bashu, Shiquan and Dingkang, were pinned down in Chunzhou by the coalition forces of Dali and Tubo, Shu was very empty, and even with the natural barriers, they could not stop Murong Fu's army.
As a result, almost all the prefectures and counties along the way were conquered by issuing an edict.
The martial arts sects in Shuzhong also began to stir up trouble, taking the initiative to open the city gates for Murong Fu and singing the touching ballad:
"Open the city gates and welcome the King of Yan. The King of Yan will pay less taxes when he comes! Implement benevolent policies, educate people, and create a paradise on earth! Let's all live happily."
