Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 275 Ministries of Nanzhao
It is necessary to occupy this kind of plateau area, but the area is too wide, and there are too many mountains, and they are huge snow-capped mountains. It is estimated that there will be no way to use them within a few hundred years.

Moreover, it is a plateau, and it is not easy for the people in the Central Plains to relocate here. The best way is to use the local Tu people to govern, and then garrison the soldiers to combine with the local people. After the population of the Central Plains increases, slowly relocate the population. to assimilate.

Therefore, Feng Daiwen was very satisfied with these two tribes who took refuge in Datang, and he became more and more pleasing to Shelong.

"Don't worry, the patriarch. The main purpose of this general is to conquer the Pyu country, and he has no ill intentions towards the Nanzhao tribes." Feng Daiwen said gently.

"Yes, yes, I have always admired Datang, and I am willing to join the family!" She Long said with a sigh of relief, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Very well, Datang has always been friendly to friends, and even more generous to its own people. All tribes that join Datang treat each other equally, regardless of each other. Later, I will ask the patriarch to explain in detail." Feng Daiwen explained with a happy smile.

"Thank you Chief Manager, thank you Chief Manager!" Shelong did not expect that Feng Daiwen not only accepted their attachment, but also would not treat them differently. Thinking that he would also be from Tang Dynasty in the future, Shelong was overjoyed and thanked them repeatedly.

"You are welcome, patriarch. The Great Tang is like this for all people, and will not discriminate against any ethnic group. However, since you join the Great Tang, you must follow the laws of the Great Tang and obey the orders of the imperial court." Feng Daiwen said with a wave of his hand.

"That's natural. The Tang Dynasty treats us equally, and our small clan is no exception. It should be so." She Long nodded in agreement in understanding.

"The patriarch later introduced these in detail. As for the official position, the emperor will have his own edict in the future, but there are many small countries in Nanzhao, and many tribes don't obey the emperor's edict. They don't understand the power of the Tang Dynasty, and they don't like the nobles. This makes me very embarrassed." Feng Daiwen said with a frown.

Shelong just joined Datang, this is not the old family, so he was naturally eager to show it. Hearing Feng Daiwen's words, he immediately stood up and said viciously: "This subordinate is willing to be the vanguard, and take down all those who do not obey the king's law!"

"Patriarch Shelong is very loyal. I will report the truth to the Holy Majesty. Since you waited for loyalty, Datang will not let you down. This time, I brought a medical officer, an old farmer, and excellent seeds to help Nanzhao. Get rich, I assure you.

You are willing to fight for the Tang Dynasty, and will support you with weapons later. This time, the army hastily brought nothing. After a while, I will send you a lot of salt and porcelain. "Feng Daiwen said with a satisfied smile, and made a promise at the same time.

"Thank you, Chief Manager. Meng Shelong will be loyal to the Tang Dynasty for generations, and will never regret it. If there is any regret, people and gods will be angry!" The ancients made great promises, and they are worth a thousand dollars. Of course, Shelong has no doubts about Feng Daiwen's promises, and he is very moved. , Shan Qi knelt down, pulled out the knife from his waist, cut his palm and swore.

Although Feng Daiwen wouldn't go against what he said, he still kind of hated them swearing by scratching their hands and faces every now and then.

"I formally accept Mengshe's edict on behalf of the Tang Dynasty. From now on, we will belong to the same family." Feng Daiwen didn't want to harm himself, and he raised his palms to assure the sky.

Then Feng Daiwen stepped forward to help Shelong up, the two looked at each other and smiled, and couldn't help but feel relieved.

"I also ask the patriarch to help spread the word to all the ministries of Nanzhao, and the families of the former Tang Dynasty. Just say that the official is here, and everyone comes to discuss how to stabilize Nanzhao. Of course, don't force if you don't come." Feng Daiwen invited Shelong to sit down Said next.

"Your subordinate obeys the order, and must bring the chief executive's original words." Shelong said respectfully.

"I don't have anything long on me, so I will give these knives to you for a meeting." Feng Daiwen asked his personal guards to bring ten high-quality steel knives and a set of ordinary armor, and handed them to She Longdao.

"Thank you for the reward, Chief Manager." Shelong had long been envious of Datang's sharp and gorgeous weapons, and now he took them with a smile on his face, thanking him again and again.

"It's just a small gift, and the patriarch doesn't need to care about it. As long as you give faithfully in the future, it's just a drop in the bucket, not worth mentioning." Feng Daiwen shook his head, signaling them not to care.

Although Shelong knew that he was making a fuss, he couldn't help being shocked by the wealth and strength of Tang Dynasty, but also happy for his wise and decisive.

"I don't know why the chief executive needs my service. Please just ask. There are 12 people in Mengshezhao who are ready to be dispatched at any time." Shelong felt that he should hug Feng Daiwen's thigh tightly, he is much more generous than the Wei family, and It represents Datang officials again, and this is the greatest guarantee.

"It's okay, the patriarch will rest for a few days first, and then make a decision after everyone arrives." Feng Daiwen said with a smile, and politely declined his offer.

"In this case, my subordinates will send a group of young men to follow the arrangement of the chief executive." Of course, She Long would not miss this opportunity to please Feng Daiwen, looking for something to say.

"Since the patriarch has all his heart, if I don't agree, it would be too unkind. I may be transferred here. I will let someone train me. It will be a great help to the patriarch in the future." He readily agreed.

"Thank you, Chief. As soon as the food and grass are provided, the subordinates will deliver them." Shelong was happier now, and he didn't expect to become a murderous soldier like Datang, at least he was much better than the mob before. He still has self-knowledge.

"Patriarch, you're welcome, just call him a general informally in the future." Feng Daiwen was also very satisfied with Shelong's knowledge and interest, and said with a smile.

"This subordinate understands! Then this subordinate will resign first, and later someone will send a flock of sheep to labor." Shelong was flattered by Feng Daiwen's overture, and hurriedly agreed.

…………

Five days later, outside the city of Mengshezhao, a large number of people had gathered in Feng Daiwen's barracks. Almost all the Nanzhao people with a radius of hundreds of miles around the Erhai Lake had arrived.

More than 40 big and small aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty had already received news that Feng Daiwen would lead the army, and now they were ordered to gather here no matter what their intentions were.

"See the Chief Manager!" Li Chongyi and Du Helianjue, who were in charge of arranging the reception, came and entered the big tent.

"Is everyone here?" Feng Daiwen stood up and motioned that there is no need to be polite, and asked while looking at the two of them.

"Except for the Wei family, the Liu family, and the five families who are farther away, everyone else has arrived." The two looked at each other, and the older Li Chongyi said.

"Other tribes farther away have already arrived, but they haven't come yet! I don't think it's Weidao, but a deliberate delay, hmph! It seems that I want to give this official a blow! You are quite courageous." Feng Daiwen raised his mouth slightly, Said with a cold snort.

　Thank you jiop, huh, brother's monthly pass, thank you for your support, I wish you all a happy new year and a successful blind date.
