Chapter 975: Three Chapters of the Entente

Compared with Zhao Ziliang's main army to attack Yeru and Wuru areas, Xuansi led the army to attack the Youru area very quickly, and the strength of the Tubo lords was relatively weak. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The area of the area of the region is not small, there is the original capital of the Tubo country, Pibo City, because the political center of the distant Tubo country has shifted to Luo, so the prosperity of the city has also weakened a lot, not as large as the population that lived in the past, and there are not many garrisons, Xuansi did not have much to do to capture the Yuru area.

Zhao Ziliang heard that Xuansi had sent someone to report that he had taken the entire Yoru region, and smiled at the ministers: "I didn't expect Xuansi's progress to be so fast, it seems that our side will also have to work hard." ”

"yes!" Chen Qing echoed and suggested: "King, since General Xuansi has already captured the Yoru region, it is better to let him capture Pari and Paro together, both of which are in his south, the closest to him, and they are the main transportation routes in and out of Tianzhu, such as capturing, if we send troops to attack again, we will also have to pass through the Yoru region, it is better to let him send a group of soldiers and horses to go." In addition, the newly conquered areas are often not very stable, and Wei Chen suggested that he order General Xuansi's men and horses to be temporarily stationed in the Yoru area, and while establishing an official government to rule, he also sent troops to eradicate those stubborn opposition forces, so as to solve the troubles for our rule! ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded after hearing this, and felt that Chen Qing's suggestion was good, so he said: "Okay, just do it, give Xuan Si an order, let them rectify local security, crack down on recalcitrant and stubborn forces, establish an official government, and let the Tianzhu soldiers garrison, anyway, the Tianzhu soldiers have no foundation here, let them garrison, this king should be at ease, and wait for two or three years to send troops and horses from other places to change the defense!" ”

Chen Qing hugged his fists and said, "Yes, King!"

In only one month, Zhao Bei and Ma Sui led the army to capture the Wuru area and the Yeru area respectively, and sent messengers to Luo Some Cities in time to report to Zhao Ziliang, Zhao Ziliang received the report and immediately ordered Zhao Bei to wave his troops to the east to attack the Dangbu, and ordered Ma Sui to lead the army to Beishan to capture the Nacang Division, which and the Nacang Department were all tribes produced after the internal strife and division of Tibet.

The Nacang Department is composed of four tribes, namely Yangbajing, Nagqu, Bangcang, and Langru, and is known as the Four Tribes of the North. The Dang tribe is also a relatively large tribe, this tribe is composed of the Powo, Chawagang, Markang, Tosidu, Gama Dansa, Katuo, Zhexue, Lingyu, Dengma, Luotang and other tribes.

Nacang is vast and sparsely populated, there are many lakes and desert grasslands, due to the climate, the air here is thin, there are many winds all year round, the wind season accounts for one-third of the year, there are nearly 300 days of frost period, the climate is cold, which is also the main reason for the sparse population here, there are many saltwater lakes in the lakes here, there are many rivers between the lakes, the complex terrain and the cold, windy and frosty climate have brought a lot of trouble to the military operations of Ma Sui.

Compared with Ma Sui's military operations, Zhao Bei's military operations were undoubtedly much easier, although the area he needed to attack was much wider, but the terrain and climate were not as complex and harsh as the Nacang area, and under the attack of his army, the Kang area was completely wiped out in a month.

On the second day of the first month of March, Xuanyi led the Western Route Army to Luoshu City and completed the meeting of the two armies, Zhao Ziliang was extremely happy after seeing Xuanyi, and said: "This is the first time you have led the troops alone to complete a long-term combat mission, and this king is happy for you!" ”

Xuanyi hurriedly bowed down and said: "Thank you for the opportunity to bring and let Wechen lead the army alone, after this battle, Wechen has gained a lot of experience and knowledge in leading the troops!" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded and said, "Very good, it seems that you have gained a lot this time!" ”

Shang Liluo stepped forward to greet him and said, "The poor monk greets Your Majesty!" ”

Zhao Ziliang looked at Shang Liluo and helped him up, "This time, thanks to the master accompanying him all the way to escort the army, otherwise General Xuanyi's western expedition would not have been so smooth!" By the way, this way to the west, have you encountered other Tibetan aliens again? ”

Shang Qianluo clasped his hands together and said, "Your Majesty, there are yes!" We have encountered local aliens in Yaze, Bujang, Mayu and other places who want to use strange arts against our army and obstruct the military operations of our army! ”

Zhao Ziliang snorted coldly with a straight face: "Hmph, these Tibetan aliens are gifted, and they don't cherish the unique talent given to them by God to practice well, but they rely on their strange skills to participate in mundane affairs and interfere with the change of secular dynasties, this king will never tolerate this kind of thing happening again!" ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Ziliang looked at the Qintianjian Wang Ximing Dao Chief, Master Wu Ming, Padmasambhava, Master Chiba and others and said: "Several Dao Masters and Masters, as far as this king knows, no matter which sect it is, its canons basically require disciples to no longer care about mundane affairs once they are monks, is there such a rule?" ”

All the Taoist leaders and masters saluted one after another: "Yes, Great King! ”

"Very good, this king and you are in the third chapter of this covenant, as long as it is within the jurisdiction of my Western Qin, no one in the sect is allowed to use magic to mutilate ordinary beings, interfere with the change of dynasty regime, and must not influence the political situation! If any sect violates any of them, it will be severely attacked and suppressed by the Western Qin Imperial Court! You are the Taishan Beidou figures of various sects in my Western Qin Kingdom, and this king wants you to express your position on behalf of your respective sects and sign an agreement, and you will strictly abide by these three agreements in the future! ”

Hearing this, these Dao Master Masters whispered to each other, and after several minutes of discussion, Master Chiba folded his hands and asked, "Great King, the poor monk has a question, can people in various sects be military or officials?" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "Since you can't interfere with the change of power in the dynasty and can't control the political situation, you naturally can't join the army and be an official!" I, the officials, civil servants, soldiers, and soldiers of the Western Qin government, are not allowed to believe in any sect, they are only loyal to the royal family, the country, and the king! Since ancient times, there have been many things in which various sects have interfered in the political situation of the court, occupied too much land, occupied a lot of wealth, and interfered in the change of dynasties, but they have also been severely suppressed and attacked by the wise lords of various dynasties. Since the monks have already become monks, they should practice with peace of mind! The longer the development of beliefs and sects, the corresponding formation of a kind of culture, which is part of the manifestation of civilization, this king will not interfere with the development of your sects and beliefs, but all sects must not do anything that endangers the rule of the Western Qin Kingdom and the living beings in the world! Just like the Buddhists say karma, if you do something you shouldn't do, sooner or later the retribution will fall on the heads of your sects! ”

The Dao Masters and Masters felt too much pressure in front of Zhao Ziliang, and in the face of such a strong lord, they didn't dare not agree and compromise, so they could only agree.

Zhao Ziliang immediately ordered Du Fu to draft the terms of the agreement, and asked the leading figures of each sect to sign and draw the articles of the agreement, and after the leading figures of all the sects signed and drew the articles of the agreement, Zhao Ziliang ordered people to copy several copies.

"Wait for the scribes and clerks to copy a few copies, and when you go back, you will take some with you, and distribute them to the temples, temples, churches, etc., below, and then frame them and hang them in the dormitories of the masters, abbots, or priests, hoping to warn them! However, even if you sign the agreement, it does not mean that your disciples and disciples will not violate this agreement, many people with strange skills often use their abilities to kill people and set fires, manipulate officials, control the political situation, and change the dynasty, in order to punish these people, the Western Qin royal court will set up a yamen to arrest and punish these people who violate the agreement, I hope that you will control your disciples and disciples after you go back, and do not teach the magic to others casually, if the offender is not your disciple and disciple, But as long as the magic he used to commit the crime belonged to your faction, your faction would not escape responsibility, did you understand? ”

The Taoist priests and monks did not dare to object, and agreed one after another: "Yes, we will keep in mind Your Majesty's teachings and strictly restrain the disciples of the sect!" ”

The next day, Zhao Bei sent someone back to report that he had led his army to capture all the tribes of the Kang tribe, and the number of soldiers and horses surrendered by each tribe reached 80,000.

On the 10th day of the first month of March, Ma Sui also sent a messenger to deliver good news, and he had led his army to capture the four tribes in the Nacang area, and could march to the Qiangtang area in the north at any time.

After Zhao Ziliang received the good news sent by Ma Sui, he convened the ministers and generals of the army to discuss the matter, said about the good news sent by Ma Sui, and asked: "Has the situation on Xuansi's side stabilized?" ”

Chen Qing replied: "Great King, the area has stabilized under the rectification of General Xuansi, Pari and Paro have been captured by our army, and the main road in and out of Tianzhu has been controlled by our army, and a large amount of grain and grass can be transported from Tianzhu at any time!" ”

"Good!" Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "At present, after a series of measures in our government affairs, the people in all parts of the Tubo region have accepted our rule. Since Zhao Bei and Ma Sui were solved by force, they should almost eradicate the resistance and stubborn forces, and the local government has also been established, so we can wave our troops to the north at any time! ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Ziliang asked Du Fu: "Is there any news from the East Route Army?" Is the Tang army still stationed in place, or has it withdrawn and returned to Chang'an? ”

Du Fu stood up and reported: "King, there is news from Hexi, saying that in November last year, Huaixi Jiedu made Li Zhongchen rebel, and the soldiers besieged Xiangyang for more than a month, and the rebels blocked the news, and the court did not learn the news for a long time, so the emperor issued an order for Guo Ziyi to stop attacking and stand by, and prepared to transfer Guo Ziyi's troops to Xiangyang to quell the rebellion, but the emperor and the court also considered that Guo Ziyi's army was encircling and suppressing the Hexi barbarian rebels with our Eastern Expeditionary Army, and they were worried that after Guo Ziyi's army was transferred, our army would face the 80,000 barbarian army in Hexi alone. It will cause the battle to be lost! The imperial court was in a dilemma, and finally had to transfer the Lingwu 20,000 garrisons to Xiangyang to quell the rebellion, Lingwu Taishou Yao Zhitong led the army to Xiangyang to quell the rebellion, passing through Chang'an on the way, the soldiers originally thought that they could get the emperor's reward in Chang'an and a full meal, wine and meat, how to know that Jingzhao Yin Wang Yu rewarded the Lingwu soldiers with some coarse tea and light rice, leftovers and cold burning, the soldiers were extremely dissatisfied, and soon caused a rebellion, Yao Zhitong was in a hurry, and stepped forward to persuade the soldiers, but the soldiers did not listen, and forced Yao Zhitong to withdraw and return to Lingwu with a sword. Yao Zhitong had to report to the emperor, the emperor was shocked when he learned about it, and hurriedly ordered someone to send thirty carts of property, but Yao Zhitong was unable to control the situation, and the ministers sent by the court to comfort the army went to the Huangcheng Street, and the rebels had already broken through the city gate and entered the Huangcheng Street, the emperor was shocked, when he arrived in Fengtian, he knew that the rebels quickly chased and surrounded Fengtian! The emperor was besieged in Fengtian for more than a month, and Guo Ziyi, who got the news, led the army to rush back to help and relieve the siege of Fengtian! ”

Zhao Ziliang frowned and asked: "As far as this king knows, Li Zhongchen has served for Xue Chuyu, Zhang Shouqi, and An Lushan, but after An Lushan's rebellion, he promptly corrected and killed the rebel general Lu Zhizhi, and since then he has repeatedly made military exploits during the pacification of the Anshi Rebellion, why did he rebel?" ”

Du Fu said: "The emperor is doing a strategy to cut the domain!" But there were people in the court who reported to the alleged kings in various places, so Li Zhongchen took the lead in rebelling! ”

Zhao Ziliang suddenly realized: "No wonder! ”
