Chapter 98 Tang Jianzhong

 "Wu Erlang, what do you think this is?"

It was already late at night in the inn. After hearing a few awkward moans, Ma Yaozi, who had just snored, got up from the bed and handed something in his hand to Wu Yuaner in the same room.

Wu Yuan'er took it and groped for a few times, and felt it was like a copper coin. He walked to the window lightly and looked at it under the gray moonlight. It turned out to be a copper coin.

"Cultural Chinese in the Tang Dynasty?" Wu Yuan'er couldn't help but read it softly. The copper coins had been worn out very much, but he still saw that the Chinese characters were carved on the copper coins. It seemed very vaguely similar to the four characters of Jianzhong in the Tang Dynasty.

"I look like it!" Ma Yaozi put his head over and pretended to be a cultural person, but he was not completely pretending. Although he didn't know the word Jian, he knew Yamato-Chun, let alone Tang.

"This is made by Guo Linggong, the King of Wuwei County!" Wu Yuan'er's hand trembled with the money.

"At that time, Anxi was surrounded by Tubo people, and the Great Protectorate was short of copper and iron. More than 3,000 pieces were cast in total. Over the past hundred years, they have been missing.

I followed my brother to go to Gaochang Uighur Kingdom several times, but I haven't even found a single one. Ma Guzheng, where did you come from?"

Ma Yaozi had no idea that this copper coin was so particular. He seemed to have heard of the Prince of Wuwei, but he couldn't remember who it was. He was embarrassed to scratch the bun on his head, and Ma Yaozi recalled it carefully.

"At that time, I threw a large handful of Xizhou money on the table of the food shop, and then pretended to be silent and took back the copper coins and left. When I came back, I found this!"

Ma Yaozi looked at the Jianzhong copper coins in Wu Yuaner's hand. If it weren't for the big difference between this coin and the Xizhou coins he carried with him, or the Gaochang Uighurs coin, he might not have discovered it.

"Ma Team Master! This matter is very important. You have to think about it carefully to see if you can remember how this copper coin appeared on your desk?

I think! Maybe we have discovered the remnants of Anxi Protectorate from the past!"

Wu Yuan'er carefully put away the copper coins, and her round face reflected an excited light under the moonlight.

"The Remnants of the Anxi Protectorate? Are you saying true?" Ma Yaozi couldn't help but raise his voice slightly.

He didn't know much about the truth, but he knew what Zhang Zhao always wanted, that is, to find the remnants of the Tang Dynasty who fell in Anxi.

Ma Yaozi closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, then suddenly fucked excitedly.

"The guy at the food shop has a problem! Yes! It must be him. The lamb leg I was holding was thrown out at that time. He picked it up for someone. Yes! It must be him, because only he has been close to me!"

Food shop clerk Wu Yuaner thought for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was meaningful.

There are many coins in the Tang Dynasty in Anxi, but most of them are the current Tang Dynasty (Later Tang Dynasty) and Kaiyuan Tongbao copper coins. There are not many Tang Dynasty Jianzhong that were minted more than a hundred years ago.

The other party mixed this copper coin into Ma Yaozi's copper coin, which was very obvious, because not to mention that in Anxi Shule, even in Dunhuang, Shazhou, and even in the Central Plains, there were few people who knew literacy, not to mention that Anxi could recognize Chinese characters, even fewer.

Those who know Chinese characters and those who know that the Tang Dynasty are rare, and are likely not Han people who become Uighurs in Gaochang, nor Han people in Khotan, or Han people. At least they are not Han people who are willing to take root in these two countries and forget about the Tang Dynasty.

"Let Li Sanlang go out of the city. We are now very close to the food shop. We can only send someone back to Erlang. We will still implement the original plan."

After thinking for a few minutes, Wu Yuaner quickly made a decision.

"Okay! The little army general in the inn is a Tianfang Sect. When we come in, we will make things difficult for me. I will fight him tomorrow. You can take advantage of the chaos and let Li Sanlang go out of the city quickly!"

Ma Yaozi nodded in agreement, but there was no alcohol in his eyes! Eight bowls of fruit wine are far inferior to the black millet wine (sorghum wine) brewed by Erlangjun! Eight bowls can't be the two bowls brewed by Erlangjun, but they are just a little urinating.

In the Governor's Mansion, Etihad had not yet slept because he instinctively felt that Wu Yuan'er's arrival was a bit strange.

No wonder he doubted this, because this team of messengers from Gaochang Uighurs Pugufeng Endagan came too coincidental.

And the reason is a little exaggerated. Three thousand guan of wealth is not a small amount of money. It is enough to equip nearly fifty soldiers. Just for dozens of monks, this servant was willing to pay so much money for the sake of the favor?

However, Etihad did not think about the situation, because it was meaningless.

Shule City is built on Gaogang, surrounded by mountains in the south, with deep and rapid moats in the east, and a rocky beach to the west, and the team cannot be expanded at all. To attack, only the broad plain in the north can be deployed.

Therefore, the people of Khotan didn't need to touch the situation at all, just put it on and fight it. Moreover, the people of Khotan besieged Shule six times and had long been familiar with the things that were familiar to the place, so there was no need to send someone to inquire.

What a pity, but unfortunately Etihad didn't know that there was already something like black gunpowder in this world. If he knew that there was black gunpowder that could explode Shule's wall, then he would definitely know why Zhang Zhao had to understand the situation in the city.

Because this can greatly facilitate Zhang Zhao to choose a blasting location where he digs the tunnel, and also allow Zhang Zhao to directly select the blasting point in the most important area. As long as the gap is blasted, he can rush in and control the kind of person in the Governor's Mansion.

"Are you sure that the deputy envoy was indeed drunk and speechless, rather than deliberately using words to lure you into the trap?"

Etihad had no doubt about "Pugu Fengen" or an important figure under his command. He had the ability to bring wealth to the vicinity of Kashgar City, because this was Anxi, not the Central Plains with clear borders and clear spheres of influence.

In Anxi, whether it is the Gaochang Uighur Khanate or the Kara Khanate, it is a Khanate with a very nomadic atmosphere.

Although Kashgar was under the rule of the Karakhanate, the leaders of Kashgar City were just driven by Bugrahra Khan.

The leaders below were not sure about the specific borders with the Gaochang Uighurs, let alone the upper class of the Khanate in Shule.

Moreover, it is not uncommon for the Gaochang people to nomadic or settle down on the territory of Karakhan. Similarly, the Karakhans also have examples of going to Gaochang. For nomadic peoples, the concept of territory is still relatively vague.

"Dear Governor, I'm sure the deputy envoy was drinking too much, because we watched him drink at least two jars of purple wine in two hours, and no one could drink so much wine without getting drunk."

The strong man who blocked the door in the food shop shook his head firmly. The ordinary people were drunk in two or three bowls of purple wine. The envoy drank two jars. You should know that one jar could pour at least four large bowls, and eight bowls, and it was impossible not to be drunk.

However, his judgment touched Etihad's blind spot. The Governor was a fanatical who strictly followed the teachings of the Tianfang Cult. He did not drink alcohol, so he could not judge what the two jars of purple wine meant.

After thinking for a while, Etihad waved to the civil servant next to him.

"Go and find ten of the guards in the Governor's Office who can drink the most, and give them two jars of purple wine and delicacies each!"
