Chapter 489: A Strategy to Expand the Territory and Strengthen the Domain
Yang Guang sensitively sniffed a trace of dissatisfaction with himself from his father's questioning, fortunately, when he made a promise to the picture in person in Bingzhou, he and Zhang Heng and others repeatedly deliberated on the pros and cons of the imperial court to help the Eastern Turks attack the Western Turks, and yesterday I witnessed the show off of force to his father and son with the help of hunting, and he was quite determined not to stop until he reached his goal, so as soon as he returned to the palace, he made preparations in advance, and An Ruoxi faced the map, and carefully asked the court to take the picture. After considering all the possibilities that might be caused by sending troops to the western frontier, I finally came to the same conclusion as when I annexed the state: we should use troops to the western frontier to help the enemy attack and destroy Apo.

Because he had just heard that Changsun Sheng also advocated rejecting the request to take pictures in order to maintain the situation of mutual checks and balances in the Turkic country, although Yang Guang had made full preparations in advance, when Yang Jian finally asked his head, he couldn't help but feel a little unconfident in his heart, glanced at Changsun Sheng, and replied hesitantly: "No matter what decision my father makes, my son thinks that there is a good reason. ”
When Yang Jian heard this, his brows furrowed, and he said disapprerovingly: "What are these words?" I'm asking you what you want, not forcing you to obey my decisions. Don't be skeptical, just say what you think. ”
Raising his eyes and seeing that Changsun Sheng also cast an encouraging glance at him, Yang Guang mustered up his courage and bowed to Yang Jian and said: "Erchen thinks that he should accept the invitation of the photograph, send troops to the western frontier, and quickly attack and destroy the Apo tribe. ”
Yang Jian stretched out his hand and pointed at Yang Guang, and said coldly: "I know that you are advocating to help the photo map to destroy Abo, tell me your reasons." ”
Yang Guang let out a long breath, calmed down his nervous mood, and replied with a fist: "As early as five years ago, before leaving Beijing and leaving the town, Erchen had listened to his father's grand ambition: to unify China and restore the Han dynasty. In order to realize this long-cherished wish in his father's heart as soon as possible, his sons advocated the use of troops in the western frontier. ”
Hearing Yang Guang say this, Yang Jian's eyes flashed with light, and he pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Oh? At the request of the photograph, what is the relationship between the use of troops in Western Xinjiang and the unification of China? Ah Zong, stop babbling and saying what you really think in your heart. ”
Yang Guang walked to the front of several cases in the hall, and pointed to a map spread out on the cases and said to everyone in the hall, including Yang Jian: "Father, please see, compared with the territory of the Han Dynasty, except for the Jiangzuo and Jiangnan areas occupied by Nan Chen, the territory under the jurisdiction of my Great Sui is much smaller than that of the Han Dynasty, especially Liaodong, which has been divided into the territory as early as the Han Dynasty more than 300 years ago, but now it has formed several states and tribes, which have fought with each other for many years, and have rebelled against our Huaxia Dynasty, rebelled and returned, capricious. Therefore, the sons thought that the Eastern Turks submitted to our Great Sui and created an excellent opportunity for his father to recover Liaodong and restore the territory of the Han Dynasty. ”
Yang Jian followed Yang Guang to the front of several cases, stared at the map with both eyes, sneered, and questioned: "Since the two Jin Dynasty, the division of the north and the south has been nearly three hundred years, and the unification has not yet been completed, how can we talk about recovering Liaodong?" ”
"Father, the sons know that the defeat of Nanchen and the completion of the reunification of the north and the south are the top priorities in the father's heart. However, if you want to realize the great cause of reunification between the north and the south, don't you want to ensure the tranquility of the north? Even if the recovery of Liaodong is not talked about now, Erchen thought that it was necessary to stabilize the hard-won vassal relationship with the Eastern Turks, and it was not appropriate to refuse the request to take pictures. Moreover, as far as the ministers know, the two khans of Apo and Datou have vigorously expanded their territories in the past two years, and they have always had the intention of annexing our northwest territories, and using troops to destroy the Apo tribe in the western frontier can not only greatly reduce the threat faced by the imperial court in the northwest, but also expand the territory to the northwest and the northwest. His father's repeated questioning aroused Yang Guang's desire to win, and although his words were a little hurried, he roughly and completely expressed what he wanted to express.
"Solidify the domain, expand the territory? Rong Zhen thought again. Yang Jian was obviously moved by Yang Guang's new reason for using troops in the Western Frontier, turned to look at Gao Ying standing behind him, and asked for his opinion with his eyes.
Gao Ying was ordered to preside over the implementation of the Da Suo Maung Yue in the Sui Realm Prefecture recently, and was bent on how to smoothly promote the Da Suo Maung Yue and the method of losing nationality that was adopted by Yang Jian, so he did not advocate the use of troops abroad at this time, and saw that Yang Jian seemed to be moved by Yang Guang's words, and turned his head to show himself, so he arched his hand and asked Yang Guang: "Your Highness, do you know that if the imperial court agrees to the invitation of the photograph, how many soldiers and horses need to be mobilized and how much grain needs to be raised?" ”
Yang Guang had been prepared for this question, and replied unhurriedly: "Gao Servant, the imperial court is now stationed in the northwest with no less than 300,000 soldiers and horses, and as early as a year ago, the King of Qin was transferred to be the governor of Qinzhou to govern the Longyou Prefectures, and the Apo tribe has been expanding its territory outward recently, resulting in the dispersion of its troops. ”
"At present, the Eastern Turks are newly attached, although Nanchen is on good terms with our imperial court on the surface, in fact, the hostile situation between the two countries has not changed fundamentally, and Liaodong Goguryeo and other countries are separated from the Great Sui. The crown prince Yang Yong took Gao Ying's words and asked Yang Guang.
"Big brother Rongyu, it is precisely because the Eastern Turks have recently joined our court that they must not refuse the request to take pictures." Yang Guang was grateful to his eldest brother Yang Yong for his repeated care, and replied in a gentle tone, "Since ancient times, there has been a saying that a teacher must be famous, as we all know, Sha Bolu Khan is the co-master of the five Turkic khans, Apo and Datou two khans betrayed their co-masters, my court should be invited by the photograph, send troops to help him quell the rebellion, this is a way to fight without a way, what reason can other countries find out about this?" ”
"May I ask Your Highness, after the imperial court sends troops to destroy the Awa tribe, how should it maintain the situation of mutual checks and balances between the Eastern and Western Turks?" Changsun Sheng endured it for a long time, and finally opened his mouth to ask Yang Guang.
"Sir, what I suggested to my father before was first of all to consolidate the domain, that is, to do my best to firmly tie the Eastern Turks, who were mainly mapped, to my Great Sui's chariot, and follow my Great Sui to expand the territory, in order to complete the grand plan to restore the hegemony of the Han Dynasty, according to the current situation, why do you have to maintain the mutual check and balance between the Eastern and Western Turks! Moreover, what he asked his father yesterday was only to send troops to help him destroy the Apo tribe, and did not mention his uncle Datou. After Apo was destroyed, in order to preserve his strength, even if he chose to surrender to our Great Sui, he would never bow down to the Tutu again, so that the balance between the Turkic tribes could still be maintained. ”
"You don't have to fight anymore, and let me think about it again." Yang Jian spoke in time to stop the controversy.
