Chapter 190: Guilty of Guilt

The border town system originated very early, and after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, he once let the famous general Meng Tian lead a large army to garrison Jiuyuan. Later, during the Northern Wei Dynasty of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the border town system that prevented the Rouran people and the rest of the northern nomads from going south, and at the same time guarded the foundation of the Northern Wei Dynasty, became more and more important, forming the famous "Six Towns".

And the Northern Wei Dynasty did not expect that it was the six towns that guarded the foundation of the place, and finally launched the "Six Towns Change", Er Zhurong and other characters took turns to appear, setting off a big rebellion known as "millions", and Emperor Wen of the Northern Zhou Dynasty (author's press, posthumously sealed) Yuwentai and Bazhuguo were actually born in six towns. And the Rebellion of the Six Towns also made the Northern Wei Dynasty finally fall apart, and even Hou Jing, who was also born in Huaishuo Town, one of the Six Towns, also set off the Hou Jing Rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River, which caught Nanliang, who was originally sharpening his knife and preparing to go north to pick up cheap, off guard.

It can be said that the Six Towns Rebellion completely broke the original confrontation between the North and the South, allowed the North and South Dynasties to complete a new split and reshuffle, and also allowed the Eight Pillars and other families that influenced the Sui and Tang dynasties to enter the historical stage.

However, the rebellion of the six towns also made the Northern Zhou and Northern Qi have enough vigilance against the border military towns, and at the same time, the Rouran people in the northern steppe were also experiencing the fight with the Turks, so there was no threat to the northern border.

Therefore, in fact, the six towns in the north have existed in name only, and the army of the six towns went south to get involved in the disputes in the Central Plains, and did not return to the north, most of the military towns and land in the north have been barren, and gradually eroded by the Turks, and now the former foundation of the Northern Wei Dynasty - Pingcheng and the steppe north of Pingcheng have actually long been out of the actual control of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

However, the desertion of the military town does not mean that the Northern Zhou Dynasty could not defeat the Turks, but because the Northern Zhou Dynasty had no time to go north, and now as long as the army swept the past, it is still very possible to restore the military town to guard the frontier.

"But this means that the Turks may not be able to go south to Hetao or Jinyang in a short period of time, so they simply turn the spearhead to us first." Yang Su muttered, "The battle in the northwest is inevitable. ”

"But it's not without a little good news," Li Xinchen said next, "Tuyuhun has already sent someone to contact us, and wants to send troops together to deal with the Turks." ”

"Tuyuhun is afraid that he wants Shazhou, right?" Yang Su is from the north, and is no stranger to this khanate active in the northwest, "This Tubo Snow Mountain is not a good place to live, although Shazhou is in the desert, it is a necessary place to go to and from the trade route, Tuyuhun occupies Shazhou to be able to hold the road to the Central Plains in the Western Regions, and the countries of the Western Regions have to ask for him, so Tuyuhun is still the overlord of the northwest." ”

Li Xinchen glanced at Yang Su appreciatively, to be honest, Li Xinchen was not very willing to let Dunhuang out directly, but now he has no choice at all, anyway, Shazhou is not under Li Xinchen's control, and it is already very fortunate for Li Xinchen to be able to occupy Wuwei, at least he has reached out to this most important trade road in the past, and now he cooperates with Tuyuhun, and there is no problem in taking what he needs.

Yang Su said lightly: "Your Majesty should agree to Tuyuhun." ”

Li Xinchen bowed slightly: "This is also the opinion of the Northwest since Cao Zhong to surrender to me, and in fact, they have already begun to do so." ”

"But ······" Yang Su's words changed, "We can't be too deeply involved with Tuyuhun, we will have to turn our faces in the future, we have to leave a little room to turn our faces." The ambition of the Tuyuhun people is a little bigger, and they don't know that there is a reason······"

Li Xinchen's gaze looked over, and Yang Su's smile was a little hideous:

"The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty!"

Northwest, Wuwei County.

The strong wind came from the north, blowing the flags on the city and rolling, looking at it, the yellow sand is thousands of miles, and there is really a feeling that the sky is vast and the Gobi is far away.

"Phew, bah, bah." Changsun Sheng was not in the mood to appreciate the magnificent scene in front of him, and tried his best to spit out the sand in his mouth, not daring to continue to talk outside, and went straight into the city tower.

"The history of the eldest grandson's assassination." Wuwei Taishou, who is also the head of the Wuwei An clan, An Xian, was ordering, and when he saw Changsun Sheng walking in, he hurriedly bowed his hand.

Wuwei An's family is a family that has been entrenched in Wuwei for a long time, although it is not a big family, but for such a long time, there are many forces that have changed like a marquee in this Liangzhou place, but there are very few families that have not fallen for a long time, and Wuwei An's family should be regarded as one of them. But now this snake is obviously feeling a sense of crisis.

Whether it is the Turks or the Tuyuhun people, they are different from anyone who wanted to entrench themselves in the northwest before. They are all typical nomads, and for the Han land like Wuwei, they mainly implement the tactics of plundering, and they can fight and leave, and there is no way to chase them to the grassland, which makes you want to cry without tears. Therefore, Wuwei An's clan also felt a sense of crisis after the division of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and in the process of Li Xinchen's entry into the northwest, it can be said that he did not hesitate to resolutely hold Li Xinchen's thigh, not only did he quickly help Li Xinchen take Wuwei, but also decisively sent village soldiers to participate in the war of Tianshui and stability.

After all, the big tree in the Northern Zhou Dynasty fell, and if the Wuwei An clan wanted to continue, they could only seek Li Xinchen's help, and it could really be said that they would not hesitate to scatter their family wealth.

It is precisely because the Wuwei An clan was even more active than the Liang clan and the Niu clan in Tianshui and Anding in the previous Northwest Rebellion, so Li Xinchen did not treat them badly, anyway, Wuwei was lonely in Hexi, and Li Xinchen did not expect them to be obedient, as long as they could ensure the supply of war horses, then they were still the local grass kings of Wuwei, so they simply gave An Xiu, who represented Wuwei An's clan at that time, a position of Taishou.

Of course, when Li Xinchen later learned that there was also a considerable disagreement within the Wuwei An clan on whether to cooperate with Li Xinchen, and An Xiu was equivalent to a victim who was pushed out after both sides could not convince each other, and it could almost be said that he was fighting for the interests of the family, there was also a feeling of irony.

What's more important is that after An Xiu returned to Wuwei, he suddenly changed from a man behind the pot in a family to Wuwei Taishou, which also made Wuwei An clan quite discussed, and An Xiu could only hug Li Xinchen's thighs tightly with some members close to Li Xinchen, as long as Li Xinchen was stable, they would naturally be stable, and the family decision-makers would not let them have any surprises.

Originally, he just wanted to rely on Wuwei to get a war horse, but he really got a city, which really surprised Li Xinchen, but since this is the case, Wuwei can't be lost, which can be said to be a model for the Han Dynasty to various families in the northwest and even the Central Plains.

As long as you obey the Great Han, the Great Han will naturally protect you.

What's even more touching is that as the eldest grandson of Liangzhou's assassin history, he rushed to Wuwei as soon as the Turks appeared, which made the "pro-Han" faction shine on their faces, and they became more and more active in mobilizing local generals and village soldiers to prepare for battle.

"Is there any movement from the Tuyuhun people?"
