Pei Min is now glad that he has a group of profitable assistants, because because of their existence, he has been away for months.

The rhythm of everything did not slow down, just as he had arranged it at the beginning, developing in a tight and orderly manner.

Especially his secretary Wang Wei, who is so delicate that it is outrageous.

In the days when Pei Min was away, Wang Wei compiled all the big and small things into a codex and recorded them.

Pei Min only looked at the codex that Wang Wei had sorted out, and he understood almost everything that happened during this time.

As a superior, he doesn't need to meddle in everything, but the general situation needs to be understood. has really become a hands-off shopkeeper, and there are only two endings.

Either it will gradually be overheaded, or it will not be able to retain people because of loss of will.

In this regard, Pei Min still pays attention to it.

In order to celebrate Jiao Chen's birthday, Pei Min rushed to Liangzhou four days in advance, day and night.

Zhang Xu, Gongsun You, Gongsun Xi and Princess Jiaohe have not yet arrived.

Pei Min also made Wang Wei ready to greet her, Princess Jiaohe is still a princess in name, although she has nothing to do with the royal family. On the surface, it is still on behalf of the royal family to marry the Turgish Khan as his wife, and the basic etiquette still needs to be in place.

Of course, Pei Min's main purpose is to welcome Zhang Xu and his future daughter-in-law and sister-in-law.

They didn't arrive until around dusk, and Pei Min was not in a hurry to greet him, and looked at the codex that Wang Wei had specially sorted out in the mansion.

Rapid foot sounds sounded.

After getting along for a long time, just by the sound of footsteps, Pei Min could conclude that it was Wang Wei and looked outside the hall.

Wang Wei stepped into the hall and said, "Guogong, there is a blood book from the Ziting guard!" ”

Pei Min's expression changed suddenly.

After many years of getting along, Wang Zhongsi is like his family. Although there is no real blood relationship, he really regards him as his younger brother.

Ziting Shou is a military important place, and once the Tang Dynasty and the Turks start a war, they will bear the brunt there.

The blood book came from this pavilion guard, and Pei Min's heart couldn't help but beat the drum, thinking that Tubo had torn up the covenant and invaded on a large scale.

One step at a time, he stepped forward in two steps, and snatched the blood book from the face.

When I opened my hands, I saw that the beginning read, "Salute to the great and noble Pei Guogong of the Heavenly Dynasty......"

Seeing this beginning, Pei Min was instantly relieved, and only foreigners would call them the Celestial Empire.

The Celestial Empire is also the honorific title of the surrounding vassal and vassal states for their period of Chinese power.

Pei Min looked down seriously, a hint of brilliance gradually flashed in his eyes, and he stuffed the blood book to Wang Weidao: "Look at it!" ”

He took two steps back and forth excitedly, and when Wang Wei saw the content of the letter, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Tuyuhun is willing to attach it, which is really a great thing." ”

"Not bad!"

Pei Min's eyes flashed with a burning look, and he was a little skeptical that this year was his natal year, as soon as spring began, God gave him such a big gift.

Tuyuhun originated from a branch of the Murong Department of Eastern Xianbei, and Tuyuhun is also a person's name, called Murong Tuyuhun.

At the beginning of the fourth century, Murong Tuguhun had an entanglement with his younger brother Murong Diao, and led his headquarters to move westward, from Yinshan to the south, through the south of Hetao, to Longshan, to the land of Longxi, Caohan grassland, as a point, to the south, north, west of the three sides, to rule Gansu, northwest Sichuan and Shu, as well as Qinghai Province and other places of the clan, Qiang and other clans.

Tuyuhun also occupied the treasure land of Qinghai Lake, and gradually developed and became a powerful man in the West.

It's just that it's good to die and not die, Tuyuhun went against the Central Plains, first let Yang Xiong and Yuwen Shu of the Sui Dynasty fight the falling flowers and flowing water, and then came to Li Jing and Hou Junji to destroy the country.

After several ups and downs, Tuyuhun was divided into two parts.

One has been integrated into the Tang Dynasty and become the people of the Tang Dynasty, and the other has brought the strong and prosperous Tubo under the account.

Originally, Tibet was a plateau people, and the soldiers under its command were mainly mountain foot soldiers. It is precisely because of the absorption of Tuyuhun and the introduction of their horse-raising and archery skills that they have the strength to run rampant in the southwest.

However, although Tibet has absorbed a large amount of Central Plains culture and already has the style of a feudal society, it is still a slave society in its bones.

As a people who died in the country, Tuyuhun was dependent on the people of Tubo, and his status was far from being equal to that of the Tubo, and there was an obvious class gap.

This is in stark contrast to the Tang Dynasty.

The biggest feature of the Tang Dynasty is tolerance and inclusiveness.

Regardless of racial identity, as long as you are dedicated to Tang, you can accept it for Datang.

In this blood letter, the leader of the remnants of Tuyuhun also wept bitterly about the injustice he had received in Tibet, hoping to throw himself into the arms of the Heavenly Empire.

"Call Zishou, Lin Fu, Shaobo, Ji Ling, and Dafu!"

Pei Min asked Wang Wei to call Zhang Jiuling, Li Linfu, Wang Changling, Wang Zhilian, and Gao Shi to discuss.

Pei Min handed over the blood book to the five people.

Among the five people, Zhang Jiuling, Wang Changling, Wang Zhilian, and Gao Shi successively showed joyful looks, and they were all direct ministers.

This is good for their country and they can express their heartfelt joy.

Li Linfu fell into deep thought, thinking about what room could be operated in this matter, which was conducive to his own performance.

Zhang Jiuling said: "This matter is indeed a happy event, but when you think about it, it is not so easy. This former Tuyuhun royal family named Murong Yan said that he could call on 80,000 Tuyuhun people to join him, 80,000 is not a small number. Once it moves, Tubo will not sit idly by. Troops will inevitably be sent to pursue, how many can reach my Tang realm? ”

"It should be noted that my Datang and Tubo now have a friendly relationship, and the two sides have close contacts. Will this lead to discord? Causing a dispute? There are many relationships involved, and they need to be discussed one by one. ”

Li Linfu said bluntly: "Brother Zhang's concept is too old, my Tang Dynasty and Tubo are old enemies, the so-called friendship is a joke, and close contacts are also an illusion." As soon as there is any abnormality, the first person to turn his face to me must be the Tubo at both ends of the first rat. Guogong is like a mirror to this, so even if Tubo is sincere, Guogong will not relax the armament of Moliyi and Guazhou. ”

Wang Changling and Wang Zhilian frowned, nothing more.

Pei Min smiled slightly, compared to the talent and literary brilliance, Zhang Jiuling, Wang Changling, and Wang Zhilian wanted to dump Li Linfu for ten streets, but they were deeper than scheming, and the three of them together couldn't hook Li Linfu's feet.

Zhang Jiuling, Wang Changling, and Wang Zhilian have the same ambition and are extremely close.

And Li Linfu couldn't even recognize the words and gist of the words, and he was not a person from the same way, and there was an obvious gap between the two sides.

Zhang Jiuling is upright and gentle, and his demeanor is very neat, and the world calls him Qujiang demeanor, which makes people like it. He and Li Linfu are natural rivals, which also causes Wang Changling and Wang Zhilian to dislike him.

But the three of them couldn't help Li Linfu at all, and with a casual word, Li Linfu not only praised Pei Min's foresight, but also blocked the mouth of the second king.

Pei Min was not partial, and said with his head bowed: "Yes, the ambition of the Tibetan wolf is too entangled with the interests of my Datang." Between the two countries, interests come first. For some reason, even if there is peace between Tubo and my Tang Dynasty, it is short-lived and cannot last long. The current peace is bought by war, and there is no need to care about that. Before the time came for us to be enemies, the Tibetans did not dare to go to war with us. ”

Wang Changling said: "Tugu has a heart to follow, and we can't ignore it. If you don't even have this bit of courage and courage, how many people dare to join my Datang? ”

Wang Zhilian also said: "My opinion is the same as that of the young uncle, I can accept it, and I don't need to worry too much." It's just that I'm a little worried that this time they will be annexed, whether it will be too abrupt. There is no sign at all, in case of fraud, I am afraid that there will be trouble. ”

Gao Shi said with a smile: "There is no need to worry about this, after Kang Zhibin's rebellion, the imperial court has changed its strategy of annexing other clans. is not to give land to horses, but to disperse Zhongzhou Jiangnan, so that they can get rid of nomadic habits and truly integrate with my Datang. Even if they are cheating, as long as they are scattered and resettled separately, what kind of storm can a person set off in the hinterland of my Datang? Childe, the subordinates also feel that since Tuyuhun is willing to be attached, there is no reason for us not to accept it. How can there be any reason to reject this kind of beautiful thing that weakens Tibet and strengthens our dynasty? ”

After a pause, he said: "However, my subordinates think that Mr. Zishou's concerns are not unreasonable, 80,000 people is not a small number, once there is a little change, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out." ”

Pei Min listened to everyone's opinions and said, "What you said makes sense, and I also think that this pie falling from the sky has no reason not to eat it." It's just that how to eat it still needs to be considered in the long run. So, that's all for today, and you can imagine what you have in mind when you're free. Zishou, you prepare food and clothing first, even if it is a show, you must let the world know that as long as you belong to my Datang, you can get the best treatment, eat and drink well. ”

Zhang Jiuling responded: "My subordinates understand! ”

"Young Uncle and Ji Ling, your task remains the same, and you continue to be responsible for the atmosphere and education in Hexi. This aspect of the matter is the main thing, and it cannot be pulled down. ”

Wang Changling and Wang Zhilian agreed together.

The crowd withdrew.

Pei Min is also thinking about the method of acceptance, the number of 80,000 is too much, and it is almost impossible to accept them all.

But Pei Min has always been greedy, and he is reluctant to give up the boss's pie, so he only takes one bite.

"Childe!"

Pei Min heard someone calling, looked up and saw that it was Li Linfu, and said with a smile: "I estimate that you will come back!" Come in and talk. ”

Wang Wei said with interest: "Wei is going to greet Princess Jiaohe and Mr. Bogao!" ”

Pei Min nodded.

Li Linfu came closer.

Pei Min smiled: "What good way do you have?" ”

Li Linfu said: "The subordinates are stupid, and they can't think of smart ways. But there is a stupid way. ”

"Tell me about it!" Pei Min was very curious about what the stupid method in Li Linfu's mouth was.

Li Linfu said softly: "Actually, my subordinates feel that this matter is only beneficial to them and not harmful. Murong Yan wrote a blood letter to vote for me Datang at this time, he must have made enough preparations and made up his mind, as long as we encourage him, he will inevitably call on everyone to vote. Don't choose to go from Qinghai Lake, the terrain is too flat and suitable for cavalry pursuit, not to mention 80,000, even if it is 100,000, 200,000 is not enough to kill. ”

"You can choose to walk from Dangjin Mountain, there are mountains and forests on the left and right, and the cavalry cannot pursue. It's all two-legged, if you really want to run, Tubo has lost its first move, and it's not easy to catch up? ”

Pei Min nodded, and in terms of route, Li Linfu thought of going with him.

Qinghai Lake must not be walked, and jumping from Dangjin Mountain to Guazhou is the only road.

"Moreover, this matter cannot be delayed! We don't know enough about the situation in Tibet, and no one can predict what will happen. It's like morale, one drum, then decline, three exhaustion, this drags on for too long, maybe Murong Yan will regret it. ”

Seeing Pei Min nodding and agreeing with his opinion, Li Linfu said with a bit of solemnity: "Before those remnants of Tuyuhun officially arrived in Guazhou, they were all our enemies. There should be no mercy for the enemy. Even if it is for Tubo to catch up, it is also Tubo's internal friction. The people who can cross the Jinshan to Guazhou will be brave and strong men nine times out of ten, and most of them are men, compared with women and children, these men with a sea of blood and hatred are more useful. ”

Pei Min glanced at Li Linfu deeply.

This guy's scheming is not insidious and vicious.

He tricked Murong Yan into taking risks and throwing the crowd together. borrowed the hand of Tubo to complete the cruel elimination of advantages and disadvantages, leaving the useless women and children who dragged their feet to Tubo, and accepting those strong men who ran fast.

According to Li Linfu's calculations, even if they fail, they will not do any harm.

It is also the Tibetan ...... that is lost

Pei Min groaned for a while and said, "This is the middle policy, but it is the best way at present." In general, this is the case, but the specific operation needs to be improved. 80,000 people, I want to accept them all as much as possible! ”

Li Linfu's strategy has seen through human nature and despised human nature.

Indeed, according to his idea, the last people who can flip through the gold mountain are men who can run and have full physical strength. But one by one is frightened, one by one abandons his wife and children, and one by one is full of people who are full of life, what is the use of keeping?

Manpower is priceless, but the current Datang does not lack this little bit of manpower.

But if you can rescue people to the greatest extent, these people will create great wealth for Datang.

They can raise horses, they adapt to altitude sickness, they know everything about Tibet, everything about Qinghai Lake.

In the near future, he will be able to lead them to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

This wealth is priceless.

If they can be subdued, the benefits they bring to Datang are immeasurable.

But among these 80,000 people, even if there are only 20,000 people, or even 10,000 people, who are willing to help Datang deal with Tubo in turn, then they will make a lot of money.

Even if other people have two hearts, with the current policy of the Tang Dynasty towards dependence on foreign races, what storms can they set off?

Li Linfu attaches too much importance to immediate vested interests and ignores long-term plans.

However, Li Linfu's general policy is correct, and at least how to minimize losses is crucial.

Pei Min asked Li Linfu to continue to think in the direction of his thoughts, and strode towards Sun Zhou's official office.

Sun Zhou is as idle as ever, and before anything happens, he will always be the most leisurely one.

"The idle days are over, how are you rebuilding your intelligence network in Tibet?" Pei Min said straight to the point.

Sun Zhouwei saluted and said: "Recently, I have been helping each other, like a tiger with wings, and many neglected places have gradually unfolded, which can be useful." ”
