Chapter 574: Go deep into the grassland and disturb the Yuan Kingdom
Guo Jia's trip to the Yuan Kingdom is a step in formulating a grand strategy, and he will go sooner or later, but it is earlier than planned.
Before Zhang Liang and Xiao He went to the Fourteen Prefectures of Anxi, they worked with Jia Xu and Guo Jia, and after discussing with the four of them, they formulated a grand strategy for Xiao Rui and Great Xia, representing the phalanx and goals of advancement.
The first strategy is to complete the planting of new crops within two years.
The second strategy is to completely sweep away the opposition conspiracy in the imperial court within one year, completely consolidate the power of the crown prince, exercise the power of supervising the country, and control the six ministries.
The third strategy is to destroy the Qi State and support the Yan State.
The fourth strategy is to rebel against the Yuan State and face the Qin State.
……
The above is the general outline, as well as the specific content and other plans, discussed from many aspects, the entire grand strategy is written down on dozens of papers, which is written by the four strategists, and is the plan for the unification of Shenzhou by the Xia Kingdom, which was called by Xiao Rui as "the white paper on how to unify Shenzhou in Great Xia"!
Now that the promotion of new crops has been completed, the second step is underway, and the treatment strategy of the Yuan State is to rebel.
Everyone knows the advantages and disadvantages of the Yuan State, and the Khan of the Yuan State himself knows that the tribal system is the biggest constraint of the Yuan State, and every Khan wants to try to change, like the Central Plains country to learn, establish a centralized system, and respect the Khan, but several Khans have worked hard for so long, and it is difficult to do it.
The tribe is like the big clan and the big family in other countries, but the tribe is more thorough, and they focus on their own tribal interests, which is purer than the family.
Therefore, the means of rebelling against the Yuan State is to support a powerful tribe, as long as there is a strong threat to the Khan of the new tribe, chaos in the Yuan Kingdom will inevitably occur. And now that the time and place are favorable, the Yuan Kingdom has been affected by the disaster, and the tribes have begun to be suspicious, compete, and even annex each other in order to survive.
It was normal for the tribes on the steppe to rush to annex each other, and they respected the winner as the king and the loser as the villain, unlike the Han Chinese, who had to take care of law and morality.
Guo Jia went to the Yuan Kingdom this time and happened to meet the Mongolian Department of the Fifth Tribe of the Yuan Kingdom.
As we all know, the five great ulus of the Yuan Kingdom are: Naiman, Kereh, Mirqi, Tatar, and Mongolia. The five major tribes are controlled by the chief, and the chief's son has established his own tribe when he becomes an adult, but they all belong to the headquarters, and there are many other tribes attached to the five tribes, and there are hundreds of tribes in the entire Yuan Kingdom.
Now the Khan of the Yuan State is from the Naiman Tribe, and the scale of the Naiban Department is also the largest, but in the same way, the other four major tribes are not small, with a population of millions, and they unite to suppress the Naiban Tribe, intentionally or unintentionally.
The name of the person Guo Jia befriended was Temujin.
His grandfather is the king of the Mongolian department, and his father is the head of the Yan tribe under the Mongolian department, this person has outstanding ability since he was a child, and he is deeply favored by his grandfather, and intends to train him to become the next king of the Mongolian department, and this person is very ambitious, and he also has a dream of becoming a khan, and even goes south in the future, invades the Central Plains, and makes Mongolia a unified empire.
Secondly, the Mongols have a feud with the current khan, and the relationship is not good.
Therefore, Guo Jia chose to start from the Mongolian department, and pretended to be the steward of the merchants of the Xia Kingdom, responsible for the trade between the Wa Kingdom and the Heavenly Poison, and this time he came to the Yuan Kingdom to inspect the market.
Temujin noticed that Guo Jia was brilliant and quick-witted, so he wanted to take it for his own use, so he behaved as a corporal and attached great importance to Guo Jia.
Of course, Xiao Rui deliberately adjusted Temujin's appetite and did not owe allegiance to him, but he also helped him come up with ideas, and a few ideas came down, so that the Mongols annexed several tribes without much effort, and Temujin was also rewarded by his grandfather.
In this way, Temujin wanted to keep Guo Jia by his side even more, so he also resorted to a beauty trick and introduced his sister to Guo Jia.
Guo Jia once again made a plan, was impressed by the prairie beauty, and was willing to marry. However, Guo Jia said that before getting married, he would go back to his hometown in Xia to worship his parents, and Temujin naturally agreed.
Of course, Temujin was not a good person, and before he reused Guo Jia, he would inevitably investigate Guo Jia's background. It happened that Guo Jia took a boat from the Wa Kingdom to the Heavenly Poison, and from the Heavenly Poison and the caravan to the Yuan Kingdom, Temujin sent people to investigate and found that Guo Jia was not lying, and his whereabouts were traceable, and he basically believed Guo Jia's statement.
And Guo Jia, in order to win the trust of Temujin, also told him his ancestral hometown, Temujin naturally wanted to send someone to Daxia to investigate, and Guo Jia informed Jia Xu early, let Jia Xu arrange his life experience, and even Guo's ancestral tomb prepared a complete set, Temujin sent to investigate the person to determine Guo Jia's "true identity", so Feiying sent a message to Temujin.
At this point, Temujin was relieved.
Secondly, Temujin was now only the grandson of the head of the Mongol tribe, and he was not a prominent figure in the Yuan Kingdom at all, and while he was cautious, he also thought that Guo Jia did not need to lie to himself.
So after Guo Jia returned to Kyoto this time, after staying for a few days to solve Huang Qilin, he would return to the Yuan Kingdom. He became an army advisor to Temujin incognito, helping the Mongols become strong and plunging the Yuan kingdom into chaos. Of course, Guo Jia's strength is limited, and he also needs Xiao Rui to provide food and weapons.
Since Xiao Rui knew Guo Jia's plan, he thought twice and finally agreed.
First of all, Guo Jia is an advent figure, and he has loyalty to ensure loyalty, so he doesn't have to worry that Guo Jia will be bought by the rebellion and become a lackey of the Yuan Kingdom. Secondly, if you want to make the Yuan Kingdom chaotic, it is time-consuming and laborious to control the air, Guo Jia will go in person to plan better. Moreover, Guo Jia's character will not defect to foreign enemies and become a traitor.
In fact, Xiao Rui wanted Jia Xu to go to Yuanguo the most.
Jia Xu's poisoner is not called in vain, Jia Xu in his previous life is the existence of even the lord, and he definitely belongs to the existence of the dead lord who does not die. In this life, because of loyalty constraints, Jia Xu showed absolute loyalty to Xiao Rui, and sent him to the Yuan Kingdom, and Xiao Rui dared to live broadcast Xiang in the Yuan Kingdom!
It's a pity that Jia Xu is too lazy, especially cherishing his own life, he was a strategist in the early stage, he had to do it himself, and now with other strategists, he likes to sit in Zhan Shifu, and how fragrant it is to do Zhan Shi safely!
So I can only work hard for Guo Jia.
Going to an enemy country thousands of miles away, being incognito, and being bought by beautiful women, this is hard... Forehead... It's not too hard to earn a wife.
"Fengxiao, this time I went to the Yuan Kingdom, if you need anything, just bring it up." Xiao Rui asked.
Bong Hyo smiled: "Since I have taken refuge in Temujin, I naturally want to give him a gift, so I want to give him a trade route." Since the state of Qi was sandwiched between Bactria and Yuan, it was best to start from Anxi Province, go north from the northwest corner, and enter the grassland through Ganzhou and Suzhou of Qi. Now that the State of Qi has long lost control of Ganzhou and Suzhou, and is occupied by the rebel army, it is appropriate to enter and exit the Yuan State from there. ”
"Therefore, the subordinates need His Highness to inform Xiao He and Shen Wansan to set up a chamber of commerce in Anxi Xing Province to deal with business with the Yuan Kingdom, and also to prevent Temujin from tracking down."
If you want to make Temujin strong, it is naturally indispensable to fund him with food and weapons, if it is directly funded in the name of Xia Guo, Temujin will inevitably take advantage and do nothing, and it will also arouse his suspicions. Therefore, it is necessary to cooperate through the Chamber of Commerce, and Temujin will take out cattle, sheep and horses in exchange for food and even weapons.
Guo Jia's dedication to this way of trade is in Temujin's heart, and he will trust Guo Jia even more.
Xiao Rui smiled: "This is a trivial matter, I will let Xiao He and Shen Wansan secretly acquire a merchant group, and be responsible for this matter, to ensure that Temujin's investigation will not be investigated, so as to ensure your safety." ”
"There is no need for anything else." Guo Jia said with a smile.
Now that this matter has been finalized, all that remains is to find out Huang Qilin.
When he left Zhan Shifu, Xiao Rui was in a good mood, so he continued to come!
"Use Wish Points: Descend on the Outstanding Ministers of the Loyal Faction!" Xiao Rui immediately made a wish.
The system immediately began to descend.
It was a familiar loading sound again, and it was estimated that it would take a while, so Xiao Rui turned off the system.
Back in the East Palace, it was already dark, Xiao Rui had dinner and hugged Azhu to play a little game, and then fell asleep.
The next day was a day off.
Xiao Rui checked the system, and before the advent was completed, he didn't care. During this time, I have been immersed in government affairs, and my mind is tired, so I just relaxed today.
In addition, last time, I promised Li Xiuer and Xiao Qingqing to take the two children to meet them, so I took advantage of the good season of autumn to have a happy autumn outing.
Li Xiu'er and Xiao Qingqing had been waiting in Jingyuan for a long time, and when they heard that Xiao Rui was coming with a few wives, they hurriedly greeted them, and as soon as they met, they took away the two pink little guys, and they couldn't put it down.
Seeing a group of women discussing and discussing around the two little guys, Xiao Rui also felt full of happiness, so he didn't bother them, but took Li Yuanfang to the lake to fish.
"King Ruyang is still the same?" Xiao Rui asked.
Li Yuanfang nodded and said, "It's still the same, living in a shallow way, and completely looking like a chic prince." ”
"This forbearance is really powerful, and in addition, do you say that the son of the king of Ruyang is dead or alive? What did Your Majesty do about it back then? Xiao Rui wondered.
According to Xiao Rui's plan, this time it is necessary to completely solve the obstacles that may prevent him from sitting on the throne, such as Duan King Xiao Feng and Huang Qilin, and naturally also King Ruyang.
Back then, in order to quietly take away the military power of the King of Ruyang, His Majesty took advantage of the assassination of his family by the Jiuyin Forbidden Army of Zhao Guo, and took away his son, and now Xiao Rui already knows the truth, but he does not know the life and death of the son of the King of Ruyang.
Last time, Xiao Rui mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, but His Majesty smiled and didn't answer, so Xiao Rui didn't ask.
The life and death of his son are unknown, and the king of Ruyang has secretly held a grudge for so long, will he give up revenge?
Of course not!
Now to be honest, it's just that because there are too many Dongchang spies around him, His Majesty has closely monitored him, and he doesn't dare to mess around if he wants to play a conspiracy.
Hearing Xiao Rui's inquiry, Li Yuanfang shook his head and said, "Your Highness and a few gentlemen can't guess it, and I can't guess it, Your Majesty can't keep people around." ”
"The most dangerous place is the safest place, and it's not impossible. But there are no young people of the right age around His Majesty, and there are no young people of the right age around the King of Ruyang. Xiao Rui smiled.
"Could it be that he is really dead?" Li Yuanfang said.
According to Jia Xu and Zhang Liang's speculation, they thought that death was more likely. is also because he died, so after His Majesty learned that King Ruyang already knew the truth, he only monitored King Ruyang, and did not think of handing over his son and taking the initiative to resolve this conflict.
