Chapter 41: Wang Chengce Takes Ji Tang Ai Discusses Attacking Ran (I)
Although Yao attacked Jiangzuo Buke, was defeated by Jiangzuo's famous general Huan, and lost his troops, but after collecting the defeated army, there are still more than 10,000 elite soldiers who can fight, and there are nearly 10,000 Hu and Tang people with the army, and the momentum is still not small.
Moreover, Yao Guo has a reputation for heroics, although he is a Rong person, when he was a minister of Jiangzuo, he had a great reputation in Jiangzuo's government and the opposition.
When his father died, he was not weak in his youth, crossed the river alone, entered the court to accept the worship, and met Xie Qian, who was then a heavy minister of Jiangzuo. Xie Qiannai is a first-class celebrity in Jiangzuo, and his daily friends are all handsome and beautiful, and when he meets Yao Guo, he is like an old friend for many years.
There are not only high names, but there are still more than 10,000 elite soldiers under the account.
The most important thing is that the ancestors of Yao were the great enemies of Pu Mao's ancestors.
But to say, didn't the Yao family surrender to Jiangzuo in his early years and live in Huainan? How could he become an enemy of Pu Mao's ancestors?
This starts from the ethnic composition of the Rong people and the last years of the Qin State of the Xiongnu.
The Rong people are the general name of the Xia people for the Northwest Yi people, and they are divided into two large tribes, one is the tribe of Pu, Gou and other clans, named "Di", which was civilized earlier, and was called "Guoren" in Puqin; One is the tribe of Yao Guo and others, named "Qiang", which was enlightened late, although it was relatively late, but the Qiang people have been mixed with the Di people since a long time ago, and the customs and habits of the two tribes are almost identical.
ββThis means that although the Yao family and the Pu family are both Rong people, in fact, the two clans are still different.
Nowadays, the political and military foundation of Puqin is based on the two departments of Di and Qiang.
The ancestral lands of Yao Qiang and Pu Yi were both in the northwest, and later, both ethnic groups were forced to migrate inward by the imperial court at that time, and they both moved into Guanzhong one after another. After the Xiongnu Zhao rebelled and established the Qin State, the Qiang people represented by the Yao family and the Di people represented by the Pu family all took refuge in the Qin State of the Xiongnu. Not long after, the Xiongnu and Qin were in turmoil, and the Yao and Pu clans saw that they had the opportunity to dominate, so they all tried to occupy Guanzhong, after all, this place was their hometown. However, in the battle, the Yao clan was defeated, and the Pu clan had a place in Guanzhong.
In other words, the Pu clan's occupation of the central part of the country was actually the result of the victory of the Di people over the Qiang people within the Rong people.
Although the Yao clan was defeated, the majority of the Yao tribe at that time, that is, the ancestor of the Yao country, was not inferior to the ancestor of the Pu family in terms of reputation. After judging the current situation, since the battle for Guanzhong was lost, and the Xiongnu Zhao State was about to perish, the ancestor of Yao State deeply felt that there was no owner to rely on, so he retreated and said to his sons: "The Zhao family will perish, and it is indeed that Rong Di has not been the Son of Heaven since ancient times." There is no owner in the Central Plains. When I die, you will return to the Tang Dynasty, and you should do all your servants, and do nothing unjust. β
So, there was the matter of Yao's surrender to Jiangzuo and the relocation of Huainan.
No one thought that the good ones had already surrendered to the Jiangzuo Tang Dynasty, and now, Yao Guo would follow his ancestors and compete with the Pu family for Guanzhong. Although the Yao family has been away from Guanzhong for a long time, the Yao family is the surname of the Rong people, and it is very prestigious in Di and Qiang.
Taken together, it's no wonder that Pu Mao is a little nervous.
Objectively speaking, the sudden invasion of Yao Guo can be said to be the first major enemy encountered by Pu Mao since he usurped power and ascended the throne.
Hearing Meng Lang's laughter, Pu Mao couldn't help but smile and said: "As Master Meng said, after Yao Guo is captured, does Gu have to reward him with one or two to reward him for giving Gu a chance to practice his military skills?" β
Meng Lang said: "That's how it should be! β
Pu Mao laughed, and his nervousness weakened a lot.
Pu Mao settled his mind, looked forward to the palace, and asked the rest of the ministers: "Yao sent an envoy to the court, saying that he would return to his hometown, and asked Gu to borrow the way." Where is his hometown? It's Nan'an! Nan'an County is the land of my Great Qin. 'Returning home' is obviously just his excuse. This 'Tao' can never be lent to him. Now that Yao Guotun is between Bingfen and Qin, Pingyang County is in danger, what is the best way to deal with it? β
Pingyang County (Linfenxi) is one of several border counties to the east of Puqin.
The northern and eastern frontier lines of the Qin state were as follows:
The northernmost is Shuofang County (west of Baotou), Shuofang borders Rouran to the north, and Tuoba Xianbei to the east. To the east from north to south are Shangjun (south of Yulin), Pingyang, Hedong (Xia) and Hongnong (southwest of Sanmenxia), all of which border the Wei state.
After Yao was defeated by Jiang Zuo, he adopted the strategy of his advisor Wang Cheng and sent an envoy to meet the lord of Wei and surrender.
Although Wei was a big break in the previous time, cheered up the national prestige, but there was Tuoba Xianbei in the north to watch, and there was He Hun evil in the southeast, it was really powerless to provoke a strong enemy, and there was also the expectation of driving Yao to consume Qin, so he knew that he was not sincere, but also turned a blind eye, allowed Yao to surrender, and generously awarded him the general of Pingxi, the history of Yongzhou Thorn, and the prince of Nan'an County, and allowed him to temporarily stay in the country.
At present, the state of Yao is the territory of Wei and the use of Qin.
Speaking of which, in just a short period of time, Yao Guo was actually involved in relations with the three major regimes of Beidi, Guanzhong, and Jiangnan.
Gou Xiong came out of class and said loudly: "Yao Guo, Xiao Qiang'er!" Failed to rebel against the Tang Dynasty, ran west in embarrassment, did not measure his own strength, and actually tried to plot against our land of Daqin. Dare to ask the king to give 30,000 soldiers, and Xiong will bring his head to the king to offer! β
When attacking Zhao Yanli, Gou Xiong asked Meng Lang for the position of lieutenant of Si Li, which was extraordinary, and he didn't get it. In order to appease him, but also to alleviate the contradiction with the Rong nobles, he took measures in the future, Meng Lang wrote a letter, saying that Gou Xiong had made outstanding contributions in the Shuofang War, and asked Pu Mao to worship him as a marquis. Pu Mao agreed to Meng Lang's request. Gou Xiong, and he is also a member of Pu Qin's prince.
"Luochuan Hou is brave and commendable." Pu Mao encouraged Gou Xiong, noncommittal to his request for war, and continued to ask the ministers in the palace, "What do you think of the emperor?" β
Zhao Yanli was captured and sent to Xianyang, and Pu Mao treated him very kindly. Shuofang's Tiefu Xiongnu tribe is very large, and there is no way to migrate inward, for the sake of stabilizing the place, more than half a month ago, Pu Mao also put his son Zhao Rangan back to Shuofang, leading the rest of the Tiefu in the county.
Zhao Yanli almost understood Pu Mao's temperament and knew that she should be in no danger of killing.
At this time, he pretended to be loyal, went out of the column, bowed down to the palace, and said: "Just like the Marquis of Luochuan said, Yao Guo is the general of the defeated army, and the rat has scurried here, and there is not even a place to stay, and his department only has more than 10,000 foot horses, where is it worth the imperial court to send a large army to beg?" In the humble opinion of the minister, the imperial decree of the soldiers and horses of Shangjun, Pingyang County, and Hedong County is on guard at the edge, and it is enough to seek opportunities to conquer at the same time! β
Gou Xiong and Zhao Yanli started, and the remaining ministers, some of them spoke one after another, either in favor of Gou Xiong or in favor of Zhao Yanli; But there are others, from beginning to end, silent.
Pu Mao listened carefully for a long time, then asked Meng Lang and said, "What does Master Meng think?" β
