Chapter 227: Honesty Don't Lie to Me

"Brother Yan, long time no see."

The messenger who came was Yu Wenhuai, and compared to his previous recklessness in Chang'an, he now looks much more mature.

"Brother Yuwen." Wang Xiao's eyes were kind, and he stepped forward to say hello with a smile on his face. However, the Assassin's mind was whether to kill this murderous creature now.

The current Yuwen valve is not the same thing as the Yuwen valve in the Sui and Tang dynasties.

After the Yuwen valve seized the Western Wei Dynasty and established the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he was almost killed by Yang Jian.

The later Yuwen valve was actually impersonated by a servant of their family named Po Yetou.

It can't be said to be an impostor, the first family of Poye was a servant of the Yuwen family, and according to the custom of this era, the surname was changed to Yuwen, which is considered an alternative inheritance.

However, the descendants of their family are indeed finished.

"I wonder when the lord of Yuwen will ascend the throne and become emperor?"

After sitting down, Wang Xiao looked at Yuwenhuai curiously, "Brother Yuwen will have to be crowned king at that time, congratulations here." ”

Yu Wenhuai, whose personality has obviously changed a lot, shook his head directly, "Brother Yan, don't make fun of it, I have something important to discuss this time." ”

Wang Xiao looked at Yuwenhuai carefully, and finally determined that this guy must have been repaired by Yuwentai. Otherwise, it would be impossible for his personality to change so obviously, unless he was taken away by the traverser.

"Under the order of the prime minister, I have come to return the remains of the Marquis of Dingbei. The prime minister said that the Marquis of Dingbei is a peerless famous general and should be buried. ”

Yu Wentai did not ascend the throne directly, he chose to be the prime minister.

For the Yuwen family at this time, what was missing was just a name. They want to be on top, anytime.

The only difference is that Yu Wenyue has been officially identified as the heir. This is also the fundamental reason for Yu Wenhuai's personality mutation.

He was still unwilling.

Wang Xiao narrowed his eyes, "What else?" ”

"The prime minister implements a new policy, prepares to implement the Juntian system, and plans to set up government soldiers"

Yu Wenhuai said for a long time, and Wang Xiao roughly understood. This is the Yuwentai New Deal in history.

The Northern Wei Dynasty was divided into two parts, east and west. Gao Huan in the east is powerful, with a population of more than 20 million, and occupies a place that has long been developed and matured, and is rich in products.

Yuwentai here in the west has a population of less than 10 million, and there is a food shortage in Guanzhong. If you don't carry out a drastic new deal, you will definitely not be able to defeat Gao Huan.

In order to increase his strength, Yuwentai began to relax his control of the Han people, and even allowed those Han families to enter the Guanlong Group to develop their strength.

The result of this new policy is to lay a solid foundation for Yang Jian's domination of the world in the future. It also paved the way for the rise of the Tang Dynasty.

After listening to this story, Wang Xiao picked up the teacup, "Is there anything else?" ”

"The prime minister ordered the cancellation of the previous policy of changing the Han surname, and all the ministries changed back to the original surname. At the same time, the surname Xianbei was given to each Hanchen, and Brother Yan was given the surname Puliuru. ”

"Poof~"

Wang Xiao directly sprayed a mouthful of salt soda on Yu Wenhuai's face.

"What's that?!"

Yuwentai changed his surname, and Wang Xiao knew about it.

Previously, Emperor Xiaowen Tuoba Hong started a comprehensive strategy of sinicization, ordering all the people of the steppe tribes to change their surnames to Han. Their Tuoba family changed their surname to Yuan. The famous Dugu family was changed to the surname Liu.

Now Yuwentai not only let the grassland people change back to their original surnames, but also gave the grassland surnames to those powerful Han family lords.

For example, Tang Taizong's family was given the surname Daye.

But this Pu Liuru was originally given to Yang Jian and their family in history.

"Are you trying to force me to be Yang Jian?"

Yu Wenhuai wiped the tea on his face: "Brother Yan, what do you mean?" ”

Wang Xiao rubbed the bridge of his nose, "It's not interesting, I just want to express what I don't accept." ”

"Brother Yan doesn't accept this surname? It doesn't matter, you can pick it yourself. ”

"You're mistaken." Wang Xiao waved his hand and said, "I mean, I don't accept Yuwentai." The hatred of killing the father is not shared, and not saying that each is the master is like fooling the past. It's just a rebellious thief, and the one who commands this and that, really thinks he's a character? ”

Wang Xiao doesn't want to be Yang Jian, not to mention anything else, he will definitely not accept this change of surname.

What is the difference between accepting this Fuso-like surname and wearing a hair left?

As a surname that has been passed down by the descendants of Yan and Huang for countless years, you changed it for me? Dream on.

Hearing Wang Xiao's refusal, Yu Wenhuai's reaction was very strange.

He didn't turn his face and get angry, but breathed a sigh of relief.

Yu Wenhuai is in a bad situation now.

His ambitions were exposed too early, and in order for Yuwentai to be able to ascend to the throne smoothly, careerists like him will definitely be solved after the situation settles down.

I didn't do it now, but it was just a mess, and it was not good to do it to my own people.

Now Wang Xiao has made it clear that the carriage and horses are going to fight, which is equivalent to indirectly relieving his pressure.

"Looks like you're in a really bad situation." Wang Xiao understood his expression: "Are you interested in working together?" Even if it's only temporary. ”

"I'm not that kind of person." Yu Wenhuai sternly refused.

"Me neither." Wang Xiao smiled and nodded, "It's just that I have a shop selling skins in Chang'an City, and I like to collect some interesting news about Chang'an City and send it over." If you have time, you can check the quality of the leather. ”

"Well, I'll check it out when I have time. Actually, I like to wear leather clothes. ”

Yuwenhuai didn't dare to let Yuwen's family settle down, because that would mean that his life was about to come to an end.

Yuwentai's strength and shrewdness made him shudder, and his small actions in the past were clever, but now they seemed to be as ridiculous as a child's trick in front of Yuwentai.

He can indeed flee to Gao Huan's side, or even flee south directly to Nanliang.

But if he really leaves, it means that he will never have a bright future in this life.

It's also interesting.

At this time, the Eastern Wei and the Western Wei and the Southern Liang in the south stood on three legs.

Nanliang talks about metaphysics and is busy fighting in the nest. Since the white-robed Chen Qingzhi, there has been no courage and confidence in the Northern Expedition to clean up the mountains and rivers.

Gao Huan of the Eastern Wei Dynasty was a Han Chinese, but because he grew up in the frontier since he was a child, his living habits were completely grassland-oriented. As a result, most of the grassland tribes were on his side.

And here in the Western Wei Dynasty, Yuwentai was obviously a grassland person, but he reused the Han people to form the Eight Pillars Kingdom and the Guanlong Group. made most of the Han families in the north take refuge in him.

These three are really more fantastic than the other.

"Go back with a message and tell Yuwentai, let him wash his neck and wait for me to take his dog's life!"

Wang Xiao said this sentence in front of Princess Yuanchun.

To treat this kind of silly and sweet woman, don't play anything deep or obscure, you have to say what she wants to hear generously, and the righteousness of what you have to say is awe-inspiring.

Sure enough, after Yuwen ran away angrily and leaving a sentence that you would regret, Princess Yuanchun directly wiped her tears and threw herself into Wang Xiao's arms.

"Brother Yan, you are so good. The woman surnamed Xiao, you can stay if you want to, but she can only be small. ”

Wang Xiao stroked the woman's hair, and the corners of his mouth outlined a smile, "Scumbag manual, don't deceive me." ’

Yan Shicheng was ceremoniously buried, and everyone in the Yan family expressed their support for Wang Xiao's choice to confront Yuwentai.

When facing an enemy, you should treat the enemy as if you were dealing with him.

Yuwentai did not send hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Yanbei. Because he knew very well that it was simply impossible.

There are more than 2,000 miles from Chang'an to Jincheng County, and most of them are rugged and difficult to travel.

Hundreds of thousands of troops drove over to fight, and before the people arrived, they had to finish themselves because of the collapse of logistics.

From the beginning of Zhang Qian's exit, Guanzhong's trip to the Western Regions could only support the actions of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses at most. Because the road conditions did not allow more soldiers and horses to move.

It is logistics that determines war, and this is the true meaning of war.

As for those who are hundreds of thousands or millions of troops sweeping here and there, just laugh and laugh at it.

If you really want to think about how long the millions of people will march, how to arrange accommodation, how to enter the battlefield, how to accurately deliver food to everyone. How do you move along different rivers to replenish water, because they can drink a whole river of water or something.

These are things that can't be taken care of.

Not to mention anything else, even if Yuwentai can really conjure up hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Liangzhou. On a road like Longyou Road, the vanguard in front arrived in Jincheng County, and the rear guard troops had not even been able to enter Longyou Road.

Because the road is narrow and rugged, it is necessary to set up a camp in advance and then roll forward round after round.

And to maintain such a logistics supply line of more than 2,000 miles, it is not enough to pull out the entire male body of the Great Wei to be civilian husbands.

Because the more people there are, the more food they consume and the more supplies they need.

It is impossible for Yuwentai to be as brainless as the Great Wei Emperor in the plot and send hundreds of thousands of people over. I don't know how those people solved the long logistical problems, maybe they flew right here.

Even if he wanted to fight, he could only send tens of thousands of elites at most.

Gao Huan in the east is about to move, and Nanliang in the south also needs to be watched, and the resistance forces in Guanzhong have not been completely pacified.

Yuwentai's only choice is to pretend that he doesn't know and put it down for the time being. Let's settle the matter at hand first.

By the way, one more word here.

Some people say that they can eat the enemy, and the army can come and directly plunder the local food and material supplies.

To say such a thing, perhaps forgetting that there is a word called, Jianbi Qingye.

The ancestors had already given a way to deal with it.

It was precisely because Wang Xiao was very aware of these twists and turns that he sternly rejected Yu Wentai's plan to delay the army.

It is impossible to deceive Wang Xiao, who is extremely experienced in the battle formation, in this regard.

When the autumn grain was harvested, Wang Xiao mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers to prepare for battle.

He did not go south to attack Guanzhong, except that Yuwentai was strong and the time had not come. Again, he couldn't afford such a long logistical supply line.

Wang Xiao set his sights on Dunhuang and Gaochang in the west.

In addition to the fact that these places are prosperous in business and wealthy. The most important thing is that there is a large number of Han Chinese who have fled the war.

What Wang Xiao lacks most now is the number of people.
