Chapter 423: Yao Luo Ge Renmei (Second Watch)
"What? The Rebels want to go to war with us? Who gave them the guts? ”
When the man in Chinese clothes heard the news, he felt a little ridiculous.
If it had been the Guiyi Army fifteen years ago, they might still be afraid of the strength of the Guiyi Army, and they would not dare to make any changes, and honestly obey the orders of the Guiyi Army.
However, since Zhang Huaishen claimed to be the envoy of the Guiyi Army, the strength of the Guiyi Army has been getting worse day by day, Lanzhou and Hezhou have been occupied by the Tubo, and Xizhou and Yizhou have been occupied by the Uighurs of Xizhou.
The Guiyi Army, which originally owned eleven states, now only has four states. It seems that there are still more than 100,000 troops, but excluding the army defending Yumen Pass and Yangguan, how many troops can be deployed?
As the greatest enemy of the Ganzhou Uighurs, the Ganzhou Uighurs knew a lot about the Guiyi army.
Although the age of the man in the Chinese costume is not very old, the education he received since he was a child is to make him watch out for the Guiyi Army.
But since his ascension to the throne, the Guiyi army has been getting worse day by day, so he feels that his father Khan has overestimated the strength of the Guiyi army.
The man in Chinese clothes is called Yao Luo Ge Renmei, the second Khan of the Uighurs of Ganzhou, only 26 years old this year, succeeded to the throne of the Khan five years ago, and was called the Khan of the Uighurs of Ganzhou.
The old man with a pale beard is called Hassan, and his position is a special service, so he is also called a special service. The secret service was one of the minor khans of the Uighur Khanate and had a high status.
In the Uighur Khanate, the status was second only to the Khan, Yehu and She.
The secret service was originally an official position exclusive to the Khan's children, but it was not limited to the Khan's children later. During the Turkic period, the position was initially filled by members of the Turkic Khan family (Ashina), but the Sogdians gradually filled the position because of the need for rich political experience, profound knowledge and astute adaptability.
The special service is in charge of internal affairs, handles diplomatic relations, and often negotiates military affairs. On the side of the Tang Dynasty, he is the prime minister, but there is also the prime minister under the Uighur special service, which is more complicated.
One thing is certain, however, that the secret service was one of the few powerful Uighur figures. Even the Khan of Yao Luo Ge Renmei must respect Hassan's special service.
Moreover, the Uighur communist leader Pang Teqin who moved west was born in the special service, and the Usuke Khan, who moved south, was also a special service.
"Khan, the minister suspects that the Tang court may also send troops. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the minister to imagine why the Guiyi army was preparing to go to war with us. The old man guessed.
"Is there any movement over there in the Tang people?" Yao Luo Ge Renmei asked.
If it's just the Guiyi Army, he can ignore it, even if the Guiyi Army has more troops than them, it can't affect them much.
Moreover, although the Shazhou Uighurs obeyed the command of the Guiyi army, they were from the same Uighur origin as them, and they would not necessarily help the Guiyi army to attack their Ganzhou Uighurs.
The strength of the Shazhou Uighurs was not strong, after all, in the old nest of the Guiyi army, there were less than 20,000 tribal warriors, and the more than 100,000 people of the Guiyi army included these nearly 20,000 Uighur warriors.
The Guiyi Army and the Shazhou Uighurs had a relationship by marriage, so the relationship was relatively close, but this did not mean that the Shazhou Uighurs would be determined to stand on the side of the Guiyi Army.
The Shazhou Uighurs and the Ganzhou Uighurs were both part of the Uighurs who migrated westward to Hexi, but they were not a tribe beforehand, but only shared the honor of Pang Teqin. But after Pang Teqin's death, these films became independent.
The Shazhou Uighurs were not as strong as the Ganzhou Uighurs, but they did not want to submit to the Ganzhou Uighurs, so they maintained close relations with the Guiyi army.
But the Tang people are different.
In fact, before the fall of the Uighur Khanate, the Uighurs had a good relationship with the Tang Dynasty. Although the Uighurs who moved west did not come into conflict with the Tang Dynasty when they moved south, the Uighurs who moved west did not conflict with the Tang Dynasty.
However, with the fall of the Uighur Khanate, the strength of the Uighurs who moved westward was greatly reduced, and Hexi and the Western Regions no longer belonged to the Tang Dynasty, and the connection between the Uighurs who moved west and the Tang Dynasty decreased sharply.
Pang Teqin was canonized as Huaijian Khan by the Tang Dynasty, but after his death, among the three Uighurs who moved westward, they all established their own khanates, but none of them were recognized by the Tang Dynasty.
In addition, the strength of the Tang Dynasty was weakened at this time, and these Uighurs did not care about the canonization of the Tang Dynasty.
However, if the Tang Dynasty joined forces with the Guiyi Army, it would not be good news for the Uighurs in Ganzhou.
And now the Uighurs in Ganzhou have not sent anyone to Chang'an to ask for canonization or anything.
Hassan shook his head and said, "There is no movement of troops on the Tang side, and the Tang people have been busy forming their Liangzhou Governor's Mansion during this time.
In addition to worrying about the Tang people, we also have to worry about Rokutanibe. ”
"Let's go back and gather everyone to discuss what to do."
This may be the biggest crisis that Yao Luo Ge Renmei has faced since he became Khan, and he cannot afford to be careless.
。。。。。。
"Guo Yu really plans to use troops against Xiazhou?"
Hearing the news, Li Ye frowned slightly, but he didn't expect that at this time, Guo Yu would stand up and make trouble.
Jingnan is a key step in the imperial court's Jiangnan strategy, and Li Ye can always plan to use Jingnan to solve the affairs of Eyue and Hunan.
"Your Majesty, you can try to transfer Guo Yu out of Jingnan, and you can't let him ruin Your Majesty's Jiangnan strategy." Pei Rong suggested.
"Guo Yu won't leave Jingnan honestly!" Li Ye said lightly.
Guo Yu's starting place is in Jingnan, leaving Jingnan, Guo Yu's power is lost, even if he can become the envoy of other towns, he has to start over.
As long as Guo Yu is not stupid, he will definitely not leave Jingnan so easily.
"Your Majesty, the minister has a suggestion. Why don't you let them fight first, and then at about the same time, the imperial court is sending a large army to cover the new Jiedu envoy to take office, and at that time, I believe that no one dares to oppose the imperial court. Li Zhen suggested.
Li Ye nodded, this is a good way, but the competition between the snipe and the clam is not necessarily the benefit of the fisherman, and the Zuo Long Wujun may not be able to suppress Guo Yu.
Seeing that Li Zhen was affirmed by the Holy Lord, Pei Rong was a little unconvinced, "Your Majesty, the minister is worried that Zhu Wen may interfere. ”
"Zhu Wen, Zhu Wen!" Thinking of Zhu Wen, Li Ye had a headache, "What is he doing now?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, at this time, the Xuanwu Army is fighting with Wei Bojun and Wu Ningjun, but Luo Hongxin and Shi Pu are not strong, I'm afraid they are not Zhu Wen's opponents." Pei Rong hurriedly explained.
At the same time, fighting with the two towns, I am afraid that Zhu Wen will dare, and he will have the upper hand.
"Luo Hongxin and Shi Pu are wasted enough, and they can't beat two or one. What about Ge Congzhou? But I appointed him as the envoy of the Loyal Army, so he has no ambition? ”
"Your Majesty, Ge Congzhou doesn't dare. According to Jinyiwei's news, Ge Congzhou is now very low-key, but let Zhu Wen's eldest son Zhu Youyu serve as the deputy envoy of Jiedu, just to alleviate Zhu Wen's suspicions. Li Zhen smiled bitterly.
"What if Zhu Youyu has a rebellious heart and wants to unite with Ge Congzhou to seize the military power of Xuanwu?" Li Ye said with a smile.
"How is that possible?" Li Zhen's first reaction was like this.
However, Li Zhen soon reacted that Zhu Youyu was Zhu Wen's eldest son, but he was both brave and strategic, and he was already an adult.
Zhu Wen's suspicions were already heavy, and with Zhang Hui's death, no one could persuade him.
An eldest son with both courage and strategy, a general with a town of soldiers and horses, will Zhu Wen doubt it?
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this matter is not easy, if it is too obvious, it is easy to be suspected. Zhu Wen should be wary of Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei's development in Xuanwu towns is very slow. ”
"Naturally, we can't let Jinyiwei go to the line. Now Zhu Wen's adult son is only Zhu Youyu, Zhu Youqi and Zhu Youzhen are young, are there any people who are hostile and jealous of Zhu Youyu? ”
Li Zhen thought about it in his mind, and suddenly flashed a person's name, and hurriedly saluted Li Ye, "Your Majesty is really a god, and there is really such a person, Zhu Wen's righteous son, Zhu Yougong, Marquis of Duyu." This person is deeply trusted by Zhu Wen, and he is stingy, and he has always had conflicts with Zhu Youyu, if he is willing to tell Zhu Wen that Zhu Youyu has objections, Zhu Wen believes that it is very likely. ”
"I don't need to talk about the rest, do we?"
Although some of these things are not on the table, this is a good way to deal with Zhu Wen. Now that Zhu Wen is powerful and has many generals, if there is a war, the imperial court may not be able to take much advantage.
But if Zhu Wen dies by himself and causes everyone to rebel and leave, wouldn't it be much easier to deal with Zhu Wen again?
"Your Majesty rest assured, the minister will not disappoint Your Majesty."
