Chapter 43: Willing to offer the strategy of the Western Regions
Yang Guang was watching singing and dancing in the hall. A beautiful woman of different races, dancing solo, beautiful costumes, small and delicate brocade boots, and a beautiful small drum in her hand, dancing and beating; The rhythm is sometimes vigorous and bright, sometimes tactful and long, the dancers step on the drums, the waist is relaxed, the dancing sleeves are low and cocked, and the golden bells worn make a crisp sound. At the end of the dance, the dancer has a deep lower waist movement, which is so light and soft that it is breathtaking.
Yang Guang waved his hand, and waited for the dancing maids and guards to leave the hall before asking, "There is a result so soon?" ”
As soon as Yang Xiong said the whole thing, Yang Guang stood up, stared at Yang Chong's eyes and said, "You are proficient in Greek, and you are a first-class craftsman, you can design weapons, and you may also have experience in iron smelting, so it is not surprising to write such a paragraph." What is unexpected is that at your age, how can there be so many things, thinking of such a deep question, Zhou Qian and Gui Niao are all outstanding masters in my opinion, in addition to not knowing martial arts, almost everything is stronger than them back then, Yang Chong, you tell me, who are you? ”
The majesty of the Son of Heaven was irresistible, and Yang Chong could clearly feel the invisible pressure, but Yang Chong's eyes were still as clear as water, and he said calmly: "Back to the saint, Weichen is just a craftsman. ”
Yang Guang stared at the half-burnt incense for a long time, suddenly laughed, and said: "I feel that there are many secrets in you, this may be the reason why Yu Wenkai chose you, I also value your talents, but you must be absolutely loyal to Da Sui, tell me, you still have those things to hide, how did you get those papers?" ”
Yang Chong is not stupid, he is too clear about the consequences of telling the truth, that is, the two major crimes of bullying the king and demons, Yang Chong said steadily: "Weichen is loyal to the saint and has nothing to hide, the paper was found in a crack in the wall behind the thatched house of Kang Shiyuan's house, and Weichen only found these few papers. ”
Yang Guangda said with a smile: "Satisfactory statement, let's talk about your plan." ”
Yang Chong pondered: "If the matter of the paper spreads, people from all sides should look for it along the route that Weichen passed, it is estimated that Gui Niao is either dead, or hiding somewhere and will not move again, and after a few months, if they lose interest, it may help Gui Niao get out." ”
"That's when the bird is still alive." Yang Guang said unceremoniously: "If Gui Niao is dead, no matter whether your paper is true or not, it is meaningless, no, it is meaningful, only the person who killed Gui Niao will know that Gui Niao is dead, and the person who leaked the secret may not know." Yang Chong, since you are loyal to me, then I believe in your ability and loyalty, there are two things you can choose at will, one is to go to charge the armory, and provide me with 3,000 swords every year; The other thing is to think of a way for me to break down the Western Turks. ”
Guan Wang Yang Xiong was dumbfounded on the side, his cousin really wanted to come out one by one, how many foreigners and people of unknown origin were in and out of the court, one Yang Chong, as for being so difficult. Yang Chong secretly scolded in his heart, this is actually doubting himself; Yang Chong pondered again, the matter of steel should not be touched, it is easy to be framed, not to mention, it is not easy to deal with those wealthy families who control the iron factory, and hurriedly said: "The minister is willing to offer the strategy of the Western Regions." ”
Yang Guang smiled and said, "Let's hear it." ”
Yang Chong asked, "Does the Holy Lord want a reputation, or does he really want to expand the land for thousands of miles?" ”
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty remained silent, and Yang Xiong, the king of Guan, asked, "Is there a difference?" ”
Yang Chong arched his hand and said: "Guanwang, there is a big difference between this. If there is only one table, a nominal suzerainty can use all kinds of means to divide, buy, and induce, but if it really wants to expand the land, it is to destroy those countries, and establish states and counties like the Central Plains. ”
Yang Xiong smiled: "If it can be like this, it is the best." ”
Yang Chong continued: "The Western Regions are mainly tripartite forces, the Western Turks, Tuguhun, and the forty-four countries of the Western Regions, and we must divide them and divide them step by step. militarily destroy Tuguhun and remove the threat of Longyou and other places; Politically control the situation in the Western Turks, and let this monster compete with Persia and the Eastern Turks; Economically, it disintegrated the various alliances of the 44 countries of the Western Regions, gradually encroached, and turned one country into one state after another. ”
Yang Xiong was a little surprised, it was really rare for Yang Chong's age to have such an opinion, and asked: "How to come step by step, it is not good to talk on paper." ”
Yang Chongtan said: "First of all, the Western Turks, the current situation is the most favorable to our Great Sui, and the Chuluo Khan is too busy to take care of himself in the face of the threat of Tiele and the Eastern Turks. Tong Ye Hu came to Chang'an this time, that is, the shooting of Shicheng Yaqi has the heart of self-reliance, so that Tong Ye Hu came to explore the truth with a piece of music. ”
Yang Chong's doing this is a real overstep, first cut and then play, Yang Guang suddenly felt a little unhappy, and asked in a deep voice: "What play?" ”
"Wechen hasn't seen it." Yang Chong replied cautiously: "According to Weichen's guess, no matter what the music is, it should be a temptation, and he doesn't care about the result, just to see if the saint has any intention of taking out the Luo Khan." ”
Yang Guang and Yang Xiong nodded, Yang Chong's speculation was the same as the center's consideration, it was impossible for Shot Kui to take the initiative to jump out at this time, and turn his face with Chu Luo Khan, but Yang Chong's assumption later was completely different from that of the center: "According to Wei Chen's opinion, if you want to control the Western Turks, you can't make a fuss about this matter, and you still have to support Chu Luo Khan." Before Gaochang and other countries become the prefectures and counties of the Great Sui, we must maintain an alliance with the Western Turks and establish a long-term relationship. ”
Yang Chong didn't speak for the Shekui brothers, Yang Guang was very surprised, and deliberately asked: "If you help Shekui, can't you maintain an alliance with the Western Turks and establish a long-term relationship?" ”
Yang Chong replied: "If this means of substitution is used for a long time, the khans supported by the Great Sui will lose their gratitude, let alone loyalty, without these, the so-called alliance is just a useless piece of paper; There will also be another consequence, and in the future, the nobles of both the Eastern and Western Turks will not dare to believe the promises and help of the Great Sui. For the time being, it is impossible for the Khan to come east, so the longer he reigns, the better it will be for us. ”
Yang Chong's idea happened to conflict with the plan formulated by Gao Gong and Pei Ju, and Yang Xiong asked, "Do you think that Chu Luo can't take Tie Le?" ”
Yang Chong affirmed: "But if you want to change it to a shooting brother, Tie Le has supported it for less than a year." Even if we don't support archery, he will still raise his army, but in this way, it will take him at least three to five years, or even longer, to defeat the Khan. And what we need in Dasui is time. Yang Chong remembered that not long after Shekui became the Western Turkic Khan, the Tiele tribes were defeated, Yishibo and his tribes surrendered to the Western Turks, and the rest of the tribes defected to the Eastern Turks.
Both Yang Guang and Yang Xiong knew that Yang Chong had talked about a key issue, that time was the greatest enemy of the Great Sui. Yang Xiong asked, "Then how to treat Tong Ye Hu." ”
Yang Chong smiled embarrassedly: "Can you give him an official position in the Great Sui?" ”
