Chapter 281 Shuffling Tajikistan
Chapter 281 Shuffling Tajikistan
The relationship between Xue Qinghe and the Tajik King immediately reached a tense level, and the empire's garrison was more inclined to help the prince.
Everything is waiting for Xue Qinghe's order, even if it is to kill the Tajik King, it is not impossible.
"The King of Tajik is really a powerful king, and I am ashamed of myself. Since this is the territory of the Tajik Kingdom, it is inconvenient for our empire's troops to station here anymore.
Following my order, the entire army retreated to the pass of Bolili Province, and the Tajik fortress was handed over to the Tajik Kingdom for garrison. I believe that the Tajik Kingdom's hundreds of thousands of troops will be able to defend the fortress. "
"Isn't the Crown Prince a little arbitrary? It is His Majesty's order to defend the Tajik Fortress. Olson's task is to hold on to the Fortress. Even if you are the Crown Prince, you cannot go against His Majesty's wishes."
Xue Qinghe's decision made the Tajik king feel a crisis, and he could only move out Emperor Xue Ye to suppress Xue Qinghe.
It's a pity that he didn't care about winning or losing the battles in Tiandou. In his eyes, these battles were just children's play.
What makes me angry now is just the arrogance of the Tajik king.
"I am here on behalf of His Majesty, and my orders are also His Majesty's orders! In addition, I would like to remind the King of Tajikistan.
In one month's time, the annual tribute from the kingdom and the principality should be handed over. If you default on the annual tribute when the empire is in crisis, you will be betraying the empire.
They are all General Olson's army, but they are not only responsible for resisting Xingluo's invasion, but also their mission is to clear up the rebellion!
At present, the Tajik Fortress is of great significance to the empire. If the kingdom loses the fortress, then the only way to apologize is to die. "
Xue Qinghe's eyes were already full of murderous intent. A mere king of a kingdom was only equivalent to the chief official of a province. As the prince of the empire, he still had the right to strangle such officials.
Such a threat is undoubtedly an attempt to completely destroy the Tajik Kingdom. Moreover, with the strength of the Tajik Kingdom, it is impossible to hold on to the fortress or resist Olson's army.
The reason why they dared to be so arrogant was that they concluded that the empire could not lose such a place and took advantage of the geographical location. Now that Xue Qinghe had abandoned the Tajik Kingdom, the Tajik king had no confidence.
"Your Highness, the King of Tajikistan is the frontline barrier of the empire. If we lose this barrier, the empire will suffer great losses!"
Xue Qinghe ignored the Tajik king and glanced at Olson.
Olson also understood instantly and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to break camp and move to the province of Borili.
With a plop, the Tajik king knelt in front of Xue Qinghe, no longer as arrogant as before.
"Your Highness, please calm down. I have also listened to the villain's slander and will do such ridiculous things again. The Kingdom of Tajik cannot live without the imperial army. I am willing to follow His Highness' orders in all actions!"
"Why is the King of Tajik doing this? He has an army of hundreds of thousands, and he can't defend a fortress?"
Xue Qinghe's questioning made the Tajik king even more nervous, and he realized that this matter was definitely not a good thing.
"When I return, I will severely punish those who spread rumors and cause trouble, and restore General Olson's innocence."
With this promise, Xue Qinghe stepped forward and helped the Tajik king up.
"Since the imperial general is involved, let the king not worry about it. In accordance with military law, General Olson passively resisted and failed to command, causing serious casualties to the army. What crime should he be punished for?"
"According to military law, you must be beheaded!"
"Olson listens to the order! Fan Lang will behead all the above officials from the kingdom's troops around the Tajik Royal City. Anyone who resists will be executed."
Olsen broke out in cold sweats after hearing such an important decision, but since the prince gave the order, he had to obey it.
The Tajik King on the side had already turned pale. Even though he was reluctant in his heart, he did not dare to speak out against Xue Qinghe at this moment.
"King, we Tajikistan are still a kingdom after all. How can those officers kill at will? It was Olson who failed to defend the fortress. Why should he blame us? If we want to kill Olson and his men, we can't just kill him. Let it go!”
The Tajik king did not speak, but the close ministers beside him couldn't bear it any longer. They directly contradicted Xue Qinghe and even tried to pull in the imperial soldiers.
With such bold words, the Tajik king did not dare to answer these questions, but turned his head to look at Xue Qinghe.
"Falsely accusing the general of the empire and instigating the king of the kingdom to betray him, he is a despicable person. Someone comes and captures him and executes him on the spot!"
"too……"
The Tajik king wanted to plead for mercy, but he swallowed his words again. He could only watch helplessly as his cronies were taken away and executed.
"King save me..."
"King Tajik, you should go back and take care of the kingdom first! After all, so many people are going to die, and you still need to deal with their aftermath and compensation. In addition, the king does not have to worry about resisting the Xingluo army!"
Xue Qinghe arranged everything clearly before letting the Tajik king leave. Within the royal city, Olson had already led his soldiers to hunt down the officers, and even used this to eliminate some of the resisting troops.
"Young Master, we can just kill such a stupid and arrogant king. Why waste so much time with him?"
"Why bother Elder Yanying to take action on these things? He is a dim-witted king. In fact, it is not a bad thing for us. It is a pity that he is a little too arrogant."
A few hours later, Olson returned with the soldiers on the mission.
"His Royal Highness, you went to the Tajik Royal City this time to capture and kill a total of 110 officials above the general level, and killed 860 resistance soldiers. The Tajik King has also issued an order that during the period of resisting Xingluo's invasion, all troops At the command of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Thank you for your hard work, General. Although the affairs of the Tajik Kingdom have been dealt with, the defense situation of the fortress is still very serious. General, please actively respond and focus on preventing raids by the soul master team.
In addition, the Tajik Kingdom’s army needs more training by its generals, otherwise their combat effectiveness will only become a drag.”
At this moment, Olson was full of respect for Xue Qinghe and no longer had the prejudice he had at the beginning. After respectfully saluting Xue Qinghe, he left the big tent.
"Young Master, if you are cultivating an army for the empire in this way, isn't this a recipe for disaster?"
"Elder, don't worry, these armies don't count in front of our Soul Palace and the army of soul masters. They are nothing more than fish and meat on the chopping board!"
When it comes to the troops in front of him, Xue Qinghe's eyes are completely unmoved, ignoring the existence of these forces from the bottom of his heart.
"Then, what's the point of the young master's efforts in cultivating these troops?"
"Of course this is to show that guy, and if we don't really lose two battles, how can we legitimately fight back?
All this is not because the old guy is too suspicious, so he can only let these troops from the Tajik Kingdom dispel his suspicions..."
