Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 343 Fairly Reasonable

"No hurry, let me ask you first, if you are willing to serve Datang, how much compensation do you need to pay every year in exchange for Datang's protection?" Yang Yanzhang continued to ask.

Di Rendao was stunned, and then after thinking for a long time, he slowly said: "Ten thousand guan a year, Datang has to pay me 30,000 guan every year. In addition, it also gives me 500 dan of rice and 200 dan of rice." pounds of beef.

In addition, the Great Eater had to offer 500,000 coins to the Tang Dynasty every year, and so on. "

"Well, it's quite reasonable." Yang Yanzhang nodded.

"Are there any other conditions?" Di Rendao asked curiously.

"It's true. In addition to the annual salary, the other thing is that if our Datang is in danger, you need to help solve it."

"This is impossible. The Big Eater will not attack us for no reason. There is no reason at all. I don't believe it." Di Rendao said firmly.

"Then you don't have to worry about it, just follow the rules." Yang Yanzhang looked at Di Renjie, and after seeing Di Renjie nodding, he turned and left.

Di Rendao looked at Yang Yanzhang's leaving figure in confusion, and murmured: "Is there really someone who wants to attack our Datang? Who would attack our Datang, and with such a large number of people?"

Di Rendao looked at the map on the table in front of him, and a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind. Then he became horrified and stood up suddenly, his eyes full of fear and panic.

The cannibals want to capture Tubo, and His Majesty the Tang Emperor of Tubo is sitting in the Central Plains. Now, His Majesty the Tang Emperor's younger brother is leading five thousand cavalry to Tubo, so his intentions are obvious!

In this way, the cannibals will definitely not stop after they capture Tubo. Once the cannibals capture Tubo, they will inevitably push straight into Guanzhong.

And isn't the destination of my trip south this time Tuguhun near Chang'an?

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not okay, Your Majesty, Tubo has been conquered by the cannibals." Li Lingyue rushed in and said anxiously.

Di Renjie frowned slightly. Hearing Li Lingyue's shout, he raised his head and glanced at Li Lingyue, then continued to study the terrain map with his head lowered.

"Has Tubo been conquered?" Yang Yanzhang looked at Li Lingyue with his eyes widened and asked.

"Yes, Tubo has been conquered. Tuyuhun is now being slaughtered and plundered by the cannibals. Your Majesty, please return to the palace as soon as possible."

"Then why didn't you follow me? Where are my five thousand cavalry?" Yang Yanzhang had the urge to scold his mother. What the hell is this? Tubo was wiped out by the cannibals so quickly.

"Five thousand cavalry are in Tubo territory and are fighting fiercely with the Tubo people. However, the Tubo people are obviously well prepared, so they are defending the city. Although they have an advantage now, it will be difficult to break through in a short time."

Li Lingyue panted heavily, sat down in front of Di Renjie, picked up the remaining tea from Di Renjie and took a sip.

"It was captured so quickly?" Di Rendao muttered in despair, and then raised his head and asked Di Renjie if it was true that as he had guessed, Datang had already formed an alliance with Goguryeo.

"We, the Tang Dynasty, don't need this kind of suspicion." Di Renjie said coldly: "But are you sure your guess is correct?"

"If this is the case, then do you think we will still stay in Chang'an now? We are already in doom. The soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty have probably arrived around Chang'an now, right?"

Di Rendao shook the parchment in his hand, sighed and said: "Yes, Tubo has indeed been captured by the cannibals, but I don't know why. The cannibals did not send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty, but they were reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty. , arrived in Tubo later than I expected."

"How did you know that the cannibals were going to capture Tubo?" Yang Yanzhang frowned and asked.

"Because the Tubo envoy was sent to the Yamen of Jingzhao Prefecture last night, and now I am afraid that there is no one alive or dead."

Di Renjie looked at Yang Yanzhang and said: "We should retreat as soon as possible now. Tubo has been lost. If Tang Dynasty does not rescue, even Tubo will not be saved. The next step for the cannibals will be the Hexi Corridor.

If the Great Eaters captured the Hexi Corridor, then Datang would be completely surrounded. "

"You mean, you suspect that Li Ye secretly communicated with the enemy country, which is why the cannibals suddenly attacked Tubo?" Di Rendao's head was a little unable to react in time.

"What do you think? Do you think the Tubo people would send troops to invade the border of Tang Dynasty for no reason? And the cannibalism has made such a big noise.

All the kingdoms in Tianzhu must be paying close attention to the dynamics between the Great Cannibal and the Tang Dynasty. If it is not the conspiracy of the Great Cannibal, who is it? Di Renjie put down his brush and said.

"Then we must leave immediately to return to Chang'an, and then discuss the cannibal attack on the Hexi Corridor." Di Rendao looked at Yang Yanzhang and said.

"Do you think I will believe you? You just said that if the cannibals wanted to attack our Tang Dynasty, they would not bother to take a detour to capture Tubo.

What's more, the distance between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo is so far. Even if the cannibals wanted to attack the Tang Dynasty, they would not have enough troops. If you say that, wouldn't you be deceiving me? Yang Yanzhang said unhurriedly.

Di Renjie looked at Yang Yanzhang silently, and then said after a moment: "I never dare to deceive Your Majesty, you can check it carefully. I just hope that this news can reach Chang'an as soon as possible so that you can take precautions."

"Huh, do you think I'm stupid? Your Tang Dynasty's territory in the east is wider than that of the Great Cannibal in the northwest. Now that they are attacking Tubo, you Tang Dynasty are naturally happy to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Wait until the final victory. , and then be the last fisherman."

Yang Yanzhang snorted coldly and waved his hand impatiently: "Go away, I don't need you, and I don't need Di Renjie. You are not worthy of working with me, go away, go as far away as possible, don't stay in the Tang Dynasty and hinder me. Eye."

"Yang Yanzhang, you can't treat your elder brother like this."

"Get out of here, too. This is what your Di family and Di Renjie asked for. I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. It's okay now. Tubo was destroyed, and Di Renjie also sent you out of Chang'an City. You still have Why complain?

I gave your Di family a way to survive, but you don’t want it but don’t know how to cherish it, so I don’t mind and let your Di family disappear from this world, so as not to hinder my eyes in front of me. Yang Yanzhang stared at Di Rendao coldly and said.

"How dare you!" Di Rendao stood up with a cry, glared at Yang Yanzhang, pointed at him and shouted.

"Why don't I dare? I am the emperor, and you are just a commoner. If you are not convinced, you can try. Not only will I punish Di Renjie, but I will also exile all of your Di family to Xizhou, and you will never be able to stand up again!"
