Chapter 853

Harsha Empire.

Kannauj.

Li Tai completely gave up hope this time.

He had truly and surely been captured by the Great Qin people.

But he really couldn't understand.

Why could this person occupy the capital of the Harsha Empire so easily?

Before coming, there was no news at all that Great Qin had sent troops to the Harsha Empire, right?

"General Wang, don't misunderstand; my brother Li Ke is an official in Great Qin and is a colleague of yours.

Still want to conquer the entire Harsha Empire?

I just want to ask, when did Great Qin send troops?

How did you reach the capital of the Harsha Empire so quickly?"

This is the doubt in Li Tai's heart.

If this doubt is not resolved, he will always be curious, and perhaps he will develop psychological trauma in the future.

It's so sudden, how did you do it?

Wang Xuance smiled slightly.

At this time, his soldiers brought the dead Harsha King's body over for him to see.

The Harsha King had been shot in the forehead by an arrow and was thoroughly dead.

Wang Xuance waved his hand, letting them carry it away.

Only then did he speak to Li Tai.

"Great Qin did not send troops! It was just me personally, who borrowed some troops from Nepal before, and I hadn't had enough fun yet.

I just wanted to try, could I bypass all the passes and directly launch a surprise attack on Kannauj?

Facts have proven that I did it!"

Madman!

Li Tai was angered to the point of death.

So killing the Harsha King and occupying their capital was just for fun and a casual test?

This is simply a model of showing off!

It's outrageous!

Why not play by the rules?

Fighting bit by bit from the border to here would be much safer. It would also allow him to have some preparation in advance.

Now it's good, as soon as he arrived, he became a prisoner of Great Qin.

Before setting off, he calculated everything, took every precaution, but still fell into the hands of Great Qin unexpectedly.

"General Wang, you know, I have been to Chang'an before and paid a visit to the Great Qin Emperor.

Speaking of which, I am also an old acquaintance of your Great Qin, why not just let me go?"

Wang Xuance, however, ignored Li Tai's request at all.

He asked his own questions on his own.

"Your diplomatic mission this time is to contact Master Bianji? Do you know where he went?"

Hit the nail on the head!

Too accurate!

Li Tai's expression froze slightly for a moment.

Li Tai originally wanted to deny it, but that slight change in his expression was still caught by Wang Xuance. Wang Xuance didn't wait for him to answer and continued to ask.

"Want to know Master Bianji's whereabouts? Tell me a secret about the Great Tang, and I'll tell you!" Li Tai's eyes moved.

He seemed somewhat tempted by Wang Xuance's proposal.

His biggest purpose in coming to the Harsha Empire was indeed, as Wang Xuance said, to contact Master Bianji. Li Tai also knew quite a few secrets of the Great Tang.

At least, in Li Tai's view, it wouldn't really matter if those secrets were leaked.

And only by obtaining news of Master Bianji could he be considered to have completed this mission.

Trade!

This deal is worth it!

"I'll tell you a secret: my diplomatic mission to the Harsha Empire this time is actually to open up a maritime trade route for the Great Tang."

In Li Tai's view, this also counts as a relatively important secret.

Stating it is enough to show his sincerity.

Wang Xuance, however, shook his head.

"This thing you said is not a secret; you have already arrived here by boat, so opening up a maritime trade route is a certainty.

Don't use this to fob me off, tell me another one!"

Seeing that Wang Xuance wouldn't accept it, Li Tai was very depressed.

But there was nothing he could do.

Who made him the fish and the other party the butcher? Isn't it just a matter of how they want to cut him?

"The port of Jin Ling is not very convenient to use and is constantly threatened by Great Qin warships.

The imperial court might be thinking of building another coastal port in Jiaozhou."

Li Tai looked at Wang Xuance eagerly, hoping that this piece of news would be recognized by him.

However.

Wang Xuance still shook his head.

"This is not a secret! Maritime winds and waves are dangerous, so naturally, the shorter the sea route, the better. Building a seaport in Jiaozhou is something anyone who isn't stupid could think of."

Li Tai was speechless.

However, Wang Xuance's reasons were all very sufficient, and he couldn't refute them at all.

He could only throw out other secrets.

"General Wang, when I return to the Great Tang this time, I will become the Crown Prince. Zhangsun Wuji is also sparing no effort to support me.

Let's be friends, it will be of great benefit to your future prospects!"
