Chapter 714: Tang Clan's Submission
In the end, Li Ke compromised. You have to admit that this kind of ice beauty will be particularly warm once she melts, and she is super in line with people's hearts. Now Li Ke is waiting for An Lushan to rebel against Li Shimin... no, to rebel against Li Longji.
At that time, he would naturally be able to make Li Longji and others understand what righteousness is.
Otherwise, even if he demonstrated great power and powerful armament, there would still be people who missed the old emperor of the previous dynasty and would start more rebellions.
This is the sadness of the feudal era. Li Ke raised an army to suppress the world. As long as he did not have the heart to kill all his brothers, sisters, father and grandfather, he would have to be careful about rebellion.
and--
He can't defend it.
There are always fools in the world, and his mall does not have things like robots from the NieR world. He will still need these civil servants and generals within ten or twenty years, so he is really helpless and can only let those who would have died at the hands of An Lushan die anyway.
Moreover, those troops loyal to the Tang Dynasty would also fight with Li Ke at the beginning, and even suffer more casualties.
The reputation of righteousness is still necessary.
Li Ke used the Book of Life and Death to calculate that attacking the Tang army, suppressing the rebellion, and then resuming production would cost far more lives than inheriting a roughly intact court.
Instead, it would be better to evacuate the people before An Lushan entered the pass, and then allow An Lushan to attack Luoyang, letting Li Longji escape once, so that fewer people would die.
The reason is very simple.
The damn Jiedushi system of the Tang Dynasty.
This is the limit of being bad. The only difference from enfeoffment is that it still has the name of righteousness.
Li Ke used the Book of Life and Death to calculate that if he directly raised the banner of rebellion, several princes and military governors would surely rebel! Because he was Li Ke, the son of the crown prince.
On the contrary, when An Lushan attacked Luoyang, these Jiedushi and princes would pretend to be loyal to the king and accumulate strength.
He defeated An Lushan and controlled Li Longji for two days at most, three days. An Lushan's destructive power in conquering cities was limited.
But if the Jiedushi and princes rebelled, it would take at least two or three months for Li Ke to suppress them with the few people he had, and the damage caused to the whole country and the local areas would be too great.
So Li Ke was extremely angry with Li Longji for his poor performance.
This makes people see that the Tang Dynasty is about to end!
But he just didn't care, thinking that the Tang Dynasty would not explode in his generation.
It can be said that the countdown to the demise of the Tang Dynasty began with Li Longji’s corruption.
“What a hassle.”
So Li Ke still gave Changsun Wangqing a transport plane, which was specially used to transport motorcycles and other things. Although his mall also had a door-to-door delivery service, namely JingX, TaoX, and BingXX. But how to say it, the logistics fee is quite expensive, and it is charged according to the logistics fee of this era, which is so expensive.
To transport two boxes of biscuits worth fifty cents each from Yunnan to Luoyang, it dared to ask Li Ke for twenty strings of money.
So Li Ke, who had already asked his men to build a fairly decent airport, asked Changsun Wangqing to lead a construction team to Cang Yun's base to build the airport there.
But she still used a Chinook helicopter to transport a cargo hold of motorcycles, two helicopter loads of gasoline, plus a large box of rubies for military supplies, plus several large boxes of penicillin, and a technician who had been trained and knew how to dilute the penicillin.
Li Ke spent a total of 20,000 strings of cash.
"Sleeping with this woman is really expensive."
Li Ke sighed, and then saw Feng Yao walking towards him wearing stockings, even carrying a plate of food.
"Your Highness, I heard about a method of eating in Japan... However, it requires the cooperation of a young woman."
Feng Yao smiled and fell into Li Ke's arms.
"Would you like to give it a try, my Lord?"
…
Li Ke spent another month in Miaojiang, and this month, Li Ke finally met the person he wanted to meet.
Tang Aotian.
“My Lord!!”
After being let in, the leader of the Tang Clan named Tang Aotian almost crawled into Li Ke's mansion, hugged Li Ke's legs and started howling.
"Please help me, little one!!"
Li Ke was horrified. The Tang Aotian in front of him was no longer as high-spirited and energetic as before, sitting on the outer fort of Tang Family Castle and smiling at him. Now Tang Aotian was in tattered clothes, covered with strange dirt, and also had a weird smell.
He glanced at the people around him and the evil messenger who followed him with a reproachful look, unhappy that they had let in such a person like Tang Aotian.
But since the Lord of Tangjiabao was here, he could only hold his nose and speak.
"Master of Tang Family Castle, why are you doing this? Let's talk it out."
But Li Ke's advice made Tang Aotian cry even harder.
He hugged Li Ke's feet tightly and shouted.
"Your Majesty! I was wrong, Your Majesty! I will never dare to disrespect you again, Your Majesty!"
She cried so miserably that Li Ke shook his head when he saw it.
Only after finally calming Tang Aotian down did Li Ke find out what had happened to the Tang Clan.
Because the dead disciples of Tangjiabao were causing troubles crazily and the mortal martial arts could not hurt them, Tang Aotian could no longer tolerate it and chose to threaten them with their families.
Then one wrong step leads to another. The dead ghosts of the Tang Clan, who were originally just smashing things to vent their anger, started killing people. For these ghosts who were proficient in mechanical engineering, hiding in Tang Family Castle was simply waiting for death. The first to die were the four elders. The old lady of the Tang Clan was also attacked all day long because she watched the dirty deeds of the Tang Clan, so she had to flee from Tang Family Castle.
Tang Aotian also escaped and frantically looked for various Taoists and monks, but these Taoists and monks had either gone out to travel long ago, or were useless when they were invited, or even killed, and then turned around to hate him.
Tang Aotian fell into the trap several times because they had no way to cause any harm to ghosts. Ghosts were also able to become invisible and possess various objects. His internal force, martial arts, hidden weapons and poisons, which he was proud of, were of no use to ghosts.
In the end, Tangjiabao became a ghost town!
It’s no use for him to hide in the ancestral temple!
However, his frantic search for a solution actually led him to find the two ghost messengers who were locked up by the Tang family ghost using mechanical devices. Since he could not touch the things of the underworld, he could not help the two people to escape, so he was desperate and could only listen to the advice of the two ghost messengers and come to find Li Ke.
"They said that I have done too many immoral things and offended the future True Dragon Emperor. This is a punishment from heaven, so they asked me to apologize to you, Your Majesty. Only with your forgiveness will my luck and punishment from heaven be eliminated! They also said that after I reveal the Tang Family Fort, the power of those ghosts will decrease..."
Tang Aotian held a chicken leg in one hand and a steamed bun in the other, and ate voraciously.
There was no way. After he escaped from Tangjiabao, although the power of those ghosts decreased, they still pestered him. He also found that his luck had indeed become extremely bad!
Now he could hurt himself even if he made a hidden weapon! Even if he bent down to pick up a stone, he could accidentally slap himself twice!
He was really scared.
And when he thought about it carefully, he realized that it was because he offended Li Ke that he was having bad luck!
So he became even more afraid.
If Li Ke came to kill him, he would die bravely even if he was defeated, but he would break his head when he went to the toilet, and a yellow dog would immediately go upstream to pee when he drank water in the wild, and he would probably get a stitch in the side and go crazy when he used his internal energy...
He was really convinced.
But he said a lot of flattering words, but Li Ke just wanted to slap him.
"Who are you talking about?"
Son of Heaven, Son of Heaven, is he called that?
"Yes! Yes! I have overstepped my authority!"
Tang Aotian immediately gave in, and Li Ke nodded with satisfaction, then crossed his legs and looked at the other party.
"So, what are you good for?"
“…”
Hearing this, Tang Aotian sighed helplessly, then lingered on the ground and came to Li Ke, bowing his head.
"I am willing to lead the Tang Clan to submit to the Saint! I will die for the Saint!"
He knew the path to the Tang Sect's revival that he hoped for.
That’s all.
"Well, after all, the Tang Sect is a fairly large industry."
Li Ke sighed and looked at Tang Aotian who was kneeling for a long time.
"I won't say anything else. The land of the tenants that belongs to you is still yours. I won't touch it. But if they want to leave, you Tang family members can't stop them. But I have one request."
Tang Aotian immediately kowtowed again.
"Please give your orders, Your Majesty!"
"Tangjiabao will be renamed Tangmen Technical College. Disciples of Tangjiabao who are willing to stay can stay, and those who are unwilling to stay can become teachers and workers for me!"
