Chapter 222: Mr. Bamboo

Yang Chonggang nodded, Wang Ting paused suddenly, slowed down and said: "It's not impossible, Mr. Zhu sent news for the last time a month ago, Wei Wentong and Yu Zhiben have been horse thieves in Shilong Mountain, Yanmen, and there are thousands of people under them. ”

It is impossible for a few thousand people to capture Gaochang County, but it is a great chance of success to attack a few castles, and Wei Wentong and Yu Zhiben are both extremely capable people and should not be underestimated. As soon as Yang Chong heard that he was in Yanmen, he was relieved, Wei Wentong was ready to retreat to Saibei at any time to attach himself to Shibi Khan, and he would not work far away, and he would come and fight with himself, Yang Chong asked: "Are you familiar with Mr. Zhu?" ”

Wang Ting eased up from his thoughts and said: "I have met a few times, but each time it is at night, and he still wears a mask. To be honest, even if Mr. Bamboo appeared in front of me in broad daylight, I might not even be able to recognize it. Mr. Bamboo is a legend of ours in Saibei, I don't know his origin, at that time I was an armored iron knight, and I was rescued by him when I was sent by Suihando to carry out a decapitation mission. ”

Yang Chong didn't have a look of disappointment, and asked lightly, "Can you tell me the purpose of the list you and Mr. Zhu gave me?" ”

Wang Ting stared at Yang Chong for a long time and said, "The other person who gave you information definitely didn't tell you about the origin of Sui Hantang." In the early years of the emperor's reign, Gaozu adopted the strategy of Changsun Sheng, and has been using divisive tactics against the Turks, so that they have been fighting for a long time, so they sent a large number of military experts and scholars to carry out activities in the Turks. In the third year of the emperor's reign, the Turkic Khanate was divided into two parts, the eastern and western regions, Dou Rongding, the governor of Qinzhou, won by attacking the Turks in the north of Liangzhou Road, and many people who had made great contributions returned to the court.

In the seventeenth year of the emperor's reign, Princess Anyi and Princess Yichen successively married Qimin Khan, and the Great Sui built Dali City, Jinhe City and Wanshou in Baidaochuan to separate Dulan Khan. In order not to fall into the Turkic mouth, the system of the North Court was carried out in the name of Suihantang, and Pei Ju, the waiter of the Inner History, was responsible for planning; With the unification of the Eastern Turks by the Qimin Khan, Gao Gong and Changsun Sheng wanted to repeat the old events in the Western Turks. To this end, Pei Ju transferred a large number of personnel from the North Court to the Western Regions to serve in important positions, and the Ministry of Rites also recruited a group of newcomers from the people. ”

Yang Chong didn't squeak, and he had read that historical material in the military department. In the nineteenth year of the emperor's reign, Emperor Wen of Sui ordered Yang Liang, the king of Han, to be the marshal, with Yang Su out of Lingzhou, Shangshu's left servant shot Gao Gong out of Shuozhou, Shangzhu Guoyan Rong out of Youzhou, and attacked the Turks in three ways. The Eastern and Western Turkic coalition forces were defeated, the Eastern Capital Lan Khan was killed by the Sui Dynasty army, and the Sui Dynasty established Qimin Khan as the lord of the Turks, and the Western Turkic Datou Khan then proclaimed himself Bujia Khan, marched into the Eastern Turks, and fought with the Qimin Khan for territory, in a vain attempt to become the co-lord of the entire Turks.

At this moment, the Qimin Khan is a part of the Sui Dynasty, and Pei Ju's actions in Saibei will inevitably intersect with the Qimin Khan, Yang Chong suddenly woke up and asked: "Is it that some of the Qimin Khan's subordinates are also from the Sui Hantang?" ”

Wang Ting nodded regretfully and said: "This is the result of quick success, in a short period of time, it seems to have advanced the development of the situation, reduced casualties, but actually left hidden dangers." After the Qimin Khan gained a firm foothold in the Eastern Turks, the power of Princess Yicheng has infiltrated into the Sui Han Hall, and it is almost no less than Pei Ju in the Eastern Turks, and those who follow me prosper and those who oppose me die, but Pei Ju is afraid of being charged, so he turns a blind eye to this situation, and just constantly recruits new people to fill the gaps, which is no different from sending him to death, and there are few people who can really lurk and succeed, and finally the main strength of Sui Hantang is in the Longyou Hetao, which is used by people. ”

Yang Chong sighed silently, people have desires, Pei Ju disregarded the life and death of his subordinates, forced his subordinates to huddle together for warmth, and formed a force in the territory of the Great Sui to protect themselves, at this time, someone like Yu Zhiben who has resources and connections will naturally stand out. However, from another point of view, it is not harmful to Pei Ju, the people of Sui Hantang should have been mostly Gao Gong and Changsun Sheng's subordinates, and through rounds of purging, Pei Ju will be controlled.

Yang Chong suddenly had a suspicion, this was the game set up by Pei Ju to achieve his goal, deliberately making Princess Yicheng bigger, and even revealing the news to his opponent. In the nineteenth year of the emperor's reign, Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian appointed Taiping Gongshi Wansui as the head of the march and Pei Ju as the chief of the march, and sent troops to Dingxiangdao to attack the Turks; Shi Wansui defeated Datou Khan, but was unjustly killed by Emperor Wen of Sui after returning to the dynasty, Pei Ju will be somewhat affected, and perhaps only Princess Yicheng can save him.

Yang Chongyi asked, Wang Ting knew very well, after Shi Wansui's death, Pei Ju's achievements were not recorded, who would have thought that the Eastern Turks suddenly had an accident, and the urgent documents continued, Pei Ju was ordered to comfort the Qimin Khan and was promoted to Shangshu Zuocheng. Wang Ting sighed and said: "We are one of the few people who don't believe in foreigners, and I have been fighting in Handchuan since I came back from the grassland. During this period, Mr. Zhu took the initiative to come to me, saying that the situation in Beiting was erosive, and he had to find a way to stir up the stagnant water, and you were a good choice at that time, and now you are the county guard of Gaochang, which is more beneficial to us. ”

Yang Chong shook his head, Wang Ting was too optimistic, if he knew that Songjian Ke had fled back to Hebei, he didn't know how he would feel. Yang Chong now knows the identity of Mr. Zhu, a member of the Xue family in Hedong, called Xue Baiya; Matsuma Ke was Li Delin's disciple Tuobabo, and there were about 200 people in the Suihan Hall lurking in the Western Regions and Saibei. Wang Ting didn't seem to know this, and no one even told him Mr. Zhu's original identity; Yang Chong was not sure that what Wang Ting said was all true, and he also hoped to attract an elite in the army like Wang Ting, so he decided to put aside the matter of Sui Hantang for the time being, and there would be an opportunity to find out in the future.

Yang Chong gave Dadao Wang Ting a jujube red horse and a set of bronze chain mail, the horse is a turtle horse, Tianji Longlin, tall and flexible, jujube red horse is like a fire, and there is not a single miscellaneous hair in sight; Brass chain mail is made by Yang Chong's own mine, the chain mail is made of thin bronze wire heated and calcined and twisted into a ring, and then beaten into a flat ring, after being sleeved with each other, connected with rivets, the copper ring is interlocking, suitable for the human body to wear and move.

The performance of bronze chain mail is not as good as Mingguang armor, but it is beautiful, and it is very suitable for wearing on some ostentatious occasions, Yang Chong has set the products on his copper mine as a gift from the beginning, and so far, only Yang Yichen, Sikong Xing, Murong Xixiong, and Yuwen Chengdu have been given. Wang Ting was Yang Chong's previous commander of Handchuan, and Murong Xixiong was originally Wang Ting's subordinate, but Murong Xixiong followed Yang Yichen to make many military exploits in the past two years, and his current official position is above Wang Ting; Therefore, Yang Chong sent Wang Ting a war horse bronze armor, and everyone who heard it thought that it was Yang Chong's method of fishing for fame, but they didn't know that the two were allies.
