Even though Zhang Qian has no idea about numbers.

But the numbers shown in this book of the country still scared him.

Of course, with Zhang Qian's knowledge, he doesn't think that this number is not possible to be fabricated.

For example, in the Battle of Red Cliff, Cao's army had 100,000 troops and 200,000 troops, but did not return the army of 800,000?

If it was an army of 800,000, wouldn’t it scary?

My Tang Dynasty sent troops, and I had 30,000 to 50,000, and I had to claim 100,000!

But the problem is that even if the soldiers and horses of the Indians are given a half-fold, they can still scare people to death!

The military appearance is unprecedented and unprecedented. The national strength of this Heavenly Kingdom is probably ten times or a hundred times that of the Tang Dynasty.

Zhang Qian was even very glad that there was a mountain separated from India and the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, this country in the south of the mountain would be destroyed. How could the Tang Dynasty compete with it?

In fact, Zhang Qian was really scared.

And it was not just Zhang Qian who was scared.

There are also civil and military officials in the court!

This news cannot be covered.

After all, if you have a memorial, there are too many people who will handle it, and the news will inevitably be leaked.

Everyone doesn't know much about Tianzhu.

Occasionally, some small countries dare to be arrogant towards the Tang Dynasty, but the Tang Dynasty is not very good at paying attention to it.

Why should I pay attention to you?

But Tianzhu is different!

At least for the civil and military officials of the court, the letter of the country is a very serious matter.

Such a serious thing may certainly be intimidating. It is understandable to brag about your national strength.

But the Tang Dynasty was actually very restrained. It always kept in mind its humble thoughts and should not be arrogant. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty often used some humble words in its letter to negotiate with people.

What they thought was that Tianzhu was a great country after all, and it was such a serious letter of nationality. Even if it was boasted, it would not deliberately exaggerate. Even if it was a discount, the national strength was extraordinary and unimaginable!

There were dozens or millions of war elephants... At this moment, the Tang Dynasty had hit a solid foundation.

As a result, a terrifying atmosphere spread throughout the court and the country.

On the exchange, I heard that the Kingdom of Tianzhu not only refused to trade with the Tang Dynasty, but even spoke rudely and directly attacked the envoy. Out of anxiety that Tianzhu might send troops in the future and directly attacked Persia and other places by land, the stocks of the Dashi Trading Company began to show signs of decline.

Too scary.

The original vision of people for the Dashi Trading Company suddenly disappeared.

But this time, people learned a lesson, but they were not selling wildly. The market was just beginning to become unstable, and there were much more people selling than buyers.

Li Shimin was obviously extremely angry about this, but he had no choice but to do anything to Tianzhu.

In fact, Li Shimin couldn't say well about the reality of Tianzhu.

In this era, the mountains spanning between the Tang Dynasty and India were like a barrier, not only separating contacts, but also separating news.

Of course, even Li Shimin, who was highly regarded by himself, became more or less alert at this time. After all, the Indians are so arrogant, and there must be some barriers. The strength of India also makes people feel cold.

What he felt even more distressed was that his stock was losing money.

It’s strange to say that when it rises, although I’m very happy, I always feel that it may be able to rise more!

But once it starts to fall, it is like the money in your hand has been stolen. Your heart is like a knife, and you can't accept it in your heart, and you feel so painful!

Chang'an received the news, but the news received from Persia was slower.

After all, the people of India don’t take the big food store seriously.

In their minds, only the only one who can talk to Tianzhu is the Tang Dynasty court. Who is your Dashi Trading Company? I will lose even if I talk to you.

But the Nibharats finally sent the news.

Chen Zhengtai was also shocked when he looked at the report.

He wanted to break his head, but he couldn't imagine why the Indians came like this.

Logically speaking, everyone is just a negotiation. If the negotiation breaks down, the negotiation breaks down. Why is this so?

Besides, don’t the Indians know about the expansion of Dashi Trading in Persia and Dashi?

Chen Zhengtai doesn’t believe it!

Although Tianzhu cut off communication with the Tang Dynasty, he had a lot of contact with Persia and Dashi. Even if you ignore Persia and Dashi, you have always negotiated with Tubo and Nipola, right?

Why don’t you think about it in front of such a powerful neighbor as the Dashi Trading Company? You know, even the Dashi Trading Company, which is at its peak, is going to surrender!

What's more, in order to facilitate this, the conditions given by Chen Zhengtai are very generous!

It can even be said that in order to peacefully resolve the issue of trade, Chen Zhengtai made many concessions to Tianzhu.

As for negotiation, isn’t it just that I go with sincerity and you pay a little more, and the matter will be done.

Even if you are more courageous and don’t want to talk, that’s fine. But... there is no need to submit a letter of nationality and go to threaten the Emperor of Tang, right?

Damn it!

The Tang Dynasty court was the father of the Dashi Trading Company.

Chen Zhengtai looked confused.

Unreasonable!

I originally thought I was determined to win, but now I was slapped in the face and felt hot!

On the other hand, Li Chengqian, who was standing by, smiled for a long time and joked with a little bit: "Haha, you have today too."

Chen Zhengtai glared at him and frowned and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince still has the time to make fun of him? The king is worried about the humiliation of his ministers, and the king is humiliated by his ministers. Now that your Majesty is suffering this great humiliation, it is another disaster caused by you and me. At that time... I am afraid it is difficult to explain."

Li Chengqian widened his eyes and said, "It was clearly what you caused..." Then he shook his head, finally took a little serious, and then said, "Is the national strength of this Heavenly Kingdom so strong? In this way, my Tang Dynasty is just a small country in the eyes of India."

Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but grind his teeth. To be honest, if he hadn't been a human being for two lifetimes, he might have really believed it.

But he is a man of two lives. If he has some common sense in history, he knows that the Indians are powerful gunners, millions of elephant soldiers, millions of cavalry, and tens of millions of infantry. How could I believe your evil?

So Chen Zhengtai said, "Let's wait for the news first, and let Chen Zhenglei go and inquire about the Tianzhu area quickly and see if Wang Xuance and others are living or dead now."

Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and said, "I think it's important to step up the prevention in Persia at this time! It's not clear that the hundreds of millions of Indian troops will come. As for Wang Xuance, the tenth ** is dead, which is a pity."

"I don't think so." Chen Zhengtai paused and shook his head and said, "A person like Wang Xuance is definitely not someone who is easily attacked and dies."

Li Chengqian was puzzled and said, "Why?

"Feel."

Li Chengqian looked at Chen Zhengtai strangely, obviously still didn't understand where Chen Zhengtai got such a good mentality!

Chen Zhengtai said, "Now wait for the news from Wang Xuance first. I think there will be news soon after that."

Chen Zhengtai is still determined to wait a moment, sometimes it is not a good thing to act rashly.

And at this moment...

A military horse has begun to run towards the north.

Hundreds of people were led by Wang Xuance, and most of the rest were from the security team. After entering India, they were attacked soon.

However, most of the Indians who attacked were killed by them, while the rest retreated.

These hundreds of people have excellent weapons and are all desperate people. In addition, Wang Xuance was prepared for a long time, but... although he defeated the attacking Tianzhu soldiers, Wang Xuance realized that he had already penetrated into Tianzhu's territory, and the situation was obviously not very good. At this time, he could be said to be surrounded by enemies.

Therefore, he made a quick decision and ordered the abandonment of most of the baggage and the gifts sent to King Jie Ri, but he took the light cavalry and ran north without hesitation.

The deputy envoy of this mission was Jiang Shiren. Like Wang Xuance, Jiang Shiren was both military officers from the Right Guard's Office, but was suddenly transferred by Chen Zhengtai to the Dashi Trading Company and entrusted them with important tasks, and they were appointed as chief officers of the security team.

After that, they were ordered to go to the envoy of India.

The two of them led their men and horses all the way south. They originally thought it was just an ordinary mission, but they didn't care too much about it.

As a result, I really didn't expect that the Indians actually did not talk about martial ethics and actually launched a sneak attack!

Jiang Shiren was very angry, but when he saw Wang Xuance ordering his soldiers to run north, he couldn't help but say, "General, we have returned without success this time, I'm afraid we will not be able to explain when we go back to meet His Highness."

Wang Xuance nodded and said, "Because of this, I don't plan to go back to Persia."

Jiang Shiren said in surprise: "Where will the general go?"

Wang Xuance obviously had a plan in his heart and said without hesitation: "Getting to Nipola, Nipola and the Indians are enemies, and they are intimate with our Tang Dynasty. This time we have too few people, and even if we can defeat the Indians, we cannot attack the cities and villages. Only by borrowing troops from Nipola can we have a way to capture all the Indians in one place."

Jiang Shiren suddenly understood.

At first he thought Wang Xuance had admitted it!

Unexpectedly, Wang Xuance obviously did not want to take revenge easily. If he only searched for some Indians, killed them for a while, and then went back to explain, it would certainly be considered to be some contribution, but obviously, they did not fulfill their mission.

Chen Zhengtai ordered them to ask the people of the Indian to conduct business.

Since the other party is unceremonious in attacking, they want to go into business.

Then there is only one way.

"Are the Nibharats willing to borrow troops?"

"They can't ask for it." Wang Xuance said confidently: "Before coming, I had seen a lot of information collected by the Intelligence Bureau. Nipola and Tianzhu are incompatible! They were eager to drag my Tang Dynasty into the water. Over the years, Nipola has made great use of my Tang Dynasty, and today is the time for them to repay their kindness. We have obtained thousands of soldiers and security teams, and they should have broken Tianzhu's nest!"

Speaking of this, Wang Xuance's eyes shone with a sharp light, and then said, "At that time, Tianzhu must be connected to this business, and even if it is not connected, your highness will be assigned to you and me. If a real man comes, he will be able to return empty-handed?"
