Chapter Seventy-Four: Fine-tuning

Chapter Seventy-Four: Fine-tuning

"It doesn't matter, there are so many reasons why you can't leave. For example, the placement of various ministries, I also want to canonize the Khan, you have been in the Western Regions for a long time, and you know the situation. And I'm new to you, and I can't leave you. Li Wei said.

This is a huge project, if Li Wei does not come, Wang Fangyi will follow the usual practice of the Tang Dynasty, and send the main rebel chieftains to the capital, and the people of each department will take care of themselves. However, Li Wei came, considering some of Li Wei's practices in Qinghai, Wang Fangyi couldn't make up his mind. So the ministries were put under supervision, and they have not been dealt with.

Li Wei has been thinking about this problem all the way.

If the policy of restraint cannot be moved, but some partial adjustments are not made, it is undoubtedly a chronic suicide. Once the tribes are strong and the Tang Dynasty declines, these tribes will inevitably **. Moreover, this policy itself is to cut off its own roots and nutrients and raise the enemies of tigers and wolves. The only good thing, later generations will say, how big the territory of the Tang Dynasty will be, to the Aral Sea to the Caspian Sea. However, the real meaning of the vast territory of the country is to have more resources, such as taxes, population, and minerals, and the more resources, the less likely it will be bullied by foreign enemies. This is the true meaning of a great power. Like the Tang Dynasty, Li Wei has always been very opposed. But it's not very active, do you see the fate of the court killing Ashina Fu Nian? Although it is a surrender of killing, there is also a habit that has been cultivated for many years, and once it changes, all the ministries will inevitably refuse to accept it. But the drought in Guanzhong gave Li Wei a chance.

All the way to the west, the sky is high and cool.

Guanzhong was in dire straits, Guanzhong first rained and then drought, and then there was a locust plague. What does a plague of locusts mean in this era? Not only Guanzhong, but then to Luoyang, the land in Guanzhong was cracked, but Luoyang had heavy rain, Luoshui swelled, washed down Luodi, and many people's houses were submerged.

The imperial court also made many remedial measures, such as taking advantage of the great drought to organize the people, build the Danshui canal, and replace labor with work. However, too many people were affected by the disaster, and the project was just coming to an end. After more than ten days of sun exposure, many people came, and the project was over.

So many victims, especially in Guanzhong, mean that there is no harvest in summer and autumn, and the price of rice has finally broken through the 100 Wen mark. This is a terrible number, and there is no way to escape from the heavy rain in Henan. Either go over the mountains and go to Jiannan and Shannan, how many mountains do you have to pass, it doesn't count, Shannan Road and Jiannan Road, which are close to Guanzhong, are mainly mountainous terrain, the people are barren, and they can't accommodate many refugees. So many people flocked to Longyou.

This is also not right, Qinghai has been relocated several times, and the population is in a state of equilibrium, and it cannot take in many people.

Therefore, Li Wei planned to relocate a group of people to the Western Regions.

Earlier, the Tang Dynasty also reclaimed some tuntian fields in the Tingzhou area, and for these tuntians, it also caused some contradictions. After all, Tuntian is close to water sources, and it is an area with lush aquatic plants. Unless, as in the case of Tuyuhun, some tribes are left behind to exterminate the main tribes. But can Qinghai and the Western Regions be treated in the same way?

So Li Wei came up with another idea.

The pharyngeal face could not raise more than 100,000 rebels, including the Turks and other tribes. But the Turks were not in the area from Atami to Yugetsu Castle. The ten Turkic surnames, the right wing of the Asijie Que Jinbu, the Geshu Que Qianjin Ministry, the Basai Gantun Sand Bowl Jijin Ministry, the Ashi Jieni Qi Jin Ministry, and the Geshu Half Jin Ministry, are mainly distributed in the east of the Broken Leaf City and the Green Ridge, and the area from the Tianshan Mountains to the southern foot of the Kunlun Mountains. In the left chamber, there are Mukun Division, Hulu House Division, Setsheti Division, Rat Nishi Division and Turgish Division, also known as the Western Turkic Left Wing Wulu Division. It is mainly distributed in the city of broken leaves or to the west, that is, the northwest of the later generations, Kyrgyzstan and southern Kazakhstan.

The Tang Dynasty gradually lost control of the Western Turks, garrisoned more and more troops, and could not forcibly collect from the various departments, so they could only settle fields on their own. The scope of these tuntians happened to intersect with the Wulu Army, and the Tang Dynasty was self-sufficient, and the goal of the garrison army was to mediate the contradictions between their various departments, and the starting point was good. The officials who can be sent may not be able to implement it, and they think that they are a big country in the Tang Dynasty, and some bad things have happened, such as Du Huaibao. Therefore, in this rebellion, all the tribes of the Wulu tribe participated.

You can't punish them all, and you can't let them go, otherwise I'm sorry for the 25,000 most powerful elite soldiers sent by the Tang Dynasty this time. Li Wei had an idea that the main murderer was to severely punish the face, and the other rebellions gave them a chance to mend their ways. It is modeled after the practice of the eight tribes rebelling when Tuoba Jue first rose, and only killed five people including Yu Heng, and the other seven leaders all forgave it. His army came violently, and of course no one knew about the actual Western Turkic rebellion, and he didn't pay attention to it, but the target was Hezhong. If they don't deal with it, they will be treated lightly and heavily, and the departments will be resentful. Take an intermediate approach and treat only one part of the pharyngeal surface. Its people were handed over to the annexation of the various tribes that participated in the Tang Dynasty's pacification as a reward. The land that was moved out was exchanged for space around Broken Leaf City, and many homeless people were relocated. With the people, there will be a source of soldiers, and if there is tuntian, there will be food. And it is also to relieve pressure on Guanzhong and Qinghai.

Compared to Qinghai, his policy is a small fine-tuning. But no, it depends on the reaction of the ministries.

"Your Majesty, what about the food now?" Wang Fangyi asked.

"The current grain is very easy to manage, and from here it is not far from the Hezhong area, so I can make the next book, and transfer silk, paper, porcelain, tea, and even some weapons from the Central Plains to the Hezhong area to exchange." Li Wei replied calmly.

Not only the people who have migrated over, but also the tens of thousands of troops in front of them will have food problems. It is impossible to transport grain from Guanzhong to the Western Regions, and it is necessary to stop Guanzhong, which itself has already had serious problems with grain. Qinghai is the remaining large amount of grain, but Qinghai can only transport part of it, the distance is long, and the freight is extremely high. In addition, the disaster in Guanzhong is serious, and a batch of grain support must be transferred from Qinghai. On the way, Li Wei came up with this solution.

Compared with grain, porcelain, tea, silk, and paper are all valuables, not in exchange for food, and many people along the Silk Road also handed them over to the West for export in exchange for profits. This solves the food contradiction between immigrants and the army at a very low cost.

The arrival of immigrants will stimulate some new contradictions, but the significance is not trivial, with this immigration, the Tang Dynasty can get a large amount of food and some soldiers every year. There is a treasure in Broken Leaf City, and that is Broken Leaf Water. Not only this treasure, but also its geographical location. Once the Tang Dynasty has a strong garrison here, the east and west will be flanked, and the eastern and western regions of Broken Leaf City will be more peaceful and defend themselves. At the same time, it will also deal with the area west of Jinshan and Shattered Leaf City. Even through the Tang army in the Jinshan Tingzhou area, with all the Hu people who are sincerely convinced, if Liaodong is subdued, even if the desert is not convinced, it can be attacked from three sides, one east, one west and one middle, and the harm caused by the desert will be infinitely reduced. It can also develop to the south, to the central river area. This is also what Li Wei has coveted for a long time, the Hezhong region is not like later generations, today there is the huge Wuhu River and the medicine to kill the water, the countries are rich in grain, can be self-sufficient, and there are various mineral resources, such as a large number of gold and silver mines, providing a lot of wealth for the Central Plains.

Broken Leaf City can do a pilot again, and it happens that its own army will stay here for one to two years, using the shock of the army to suppress the opposition of various departments. Lay the foundation for further immigration in the future. Moreover, unlike the desert, although the environment of the various tribes of the Western Regions has deteriorated, there are still many river basins and oases, like the Dangxiang people, except for some purebred Turkic tribes, most of them are half-cultivated and half-pastoral, and the range of activities is not large, and it is also easy to manage.

Wang Fangyi hasn't seen Li Wei's ambition yet, but the first few points can be seen.

After a deep sigh, he replied, "Okay." ”

In doing so, there are more transactions. Ashina pharyngeal face also belongs to the Turkic race, the Tang Dynasty suddenly made a change and carried out severe retaliation, although this violent recovery is limited to Ashina pharyngeal face, how will the other Turkic tribes feel?

Wang Fangyi can't leave!

Also, arrange the Turkic Khan. The Turks were divided into ten surnames, which was the saying of the Tibetans or the Turks themselves, and the Tang Dynasty was only divided into left and right compartments. At that time, this was set up only for ease of management. But today there is still a positive significance, not growth, but differentiation. There were many tribes in the Western Regions, and the Turks considered themselves to be the most noble group, and the fact that the Turks were nobler than the other tribes was also recognized by the tribes. As long as there is a talented and strategic character, the ten surnames can be reunited. The division into the left and right compartments is to forcibly divide the Turks into two, and even if it is implemented properly, the left and right compartments can produce contradictions, just like the Eastern and Western Turks. Reduce the harm to the management of the Tang Dynasty.

However, it is also difficult to establish two khans, and these two khans must be recognized by all ministries, and they must also be pro-Tang, unlike Ashina Duzhi and Li Shalu.

Even Li Wei thought of the harmony system.

He is very dissatisfied with the peace system, why should a woman maintain the dignity of a nation? How good it is like the Ming Dynasty, not a minister, no tribute, no harmony, the Son of Heaven guards the country.

But without Lu's affinity, he reflected again.

The Song Dynasty did not talk about it, but could only learn from its economic model, and all of them had to be overthrown militarily. The economic model of the Ming Dynasty has not been borrowed, and the military can only learn from the front, the Ming Dynasty was very powerful in the pre-Ming Dynasty, especially Emperor Zhu Di, who regarded it as his own racetrack. However, the literati system of the Ming Dynasty caused this achievement of Emperor Zhu Di to quickly collapse. Diplomatically, there were also many countries that paid tribute, but they were rewarded with a large amount of wealth, so that in the end, the Ming Dynasty limited the number of times envoys from various countries came to pay tribute. This is no different from some of the systems of the Tang Dynasty.

On the other hand, the history of the previous generations is not very true, but the history of the Han and Sui dynasties, after coming to the Tang Dynasty, is often read. Needless to say, Princess Yicheng of the Sui Dynasty was the number one enemy of the Tang Dynasty, but how many times she helped the Sui Dynasty. Looking at the Han Dynasty again, there is no need to say whether Wang Zhaojun has achieved anything. There are also three princesses who married to Wusun, and the first princess to relieve worries made Wusun unswervingly follow the road of uniting the Han Dynasty and controlling Hungary. The second princess was even more fierce, and she and the envoy of the Han Dynasty, Chang Hui, actually united with the countries, defeated the Huns, and killed 40,000 or 50,000 Hun soldiers. The third Liu Xiangfu went to the next level, and her husband wanted to be pro-Hungarian, so he joined forces with the Han envoys to kill her husband, but failed, but was seriously injured. Then the mad king Nimi fled from the city, led his troops to retaliate, and surrounded the Han Dynasty envoys and princesses in the city. Liu Xiangfu was not a husband at all, and used many pro-Han guards in the city to stick to the city. As soon as Huo Guang saw that it was in chaos, he sent the envoy Zhang Weng to mediate. When Zhang Weng was leaving, Huo Guang said a word and escorted the messenger who participated in the assassination back to Chang'an to be beheaded. When I arrived in Chang'an, I also cut off a fart, which was to appease the muddy anger.

But after this stupid treasure arrived in Wusun, it was really tried, and in the first instance, the corruption of Confucianism attacked, one is your husband, and the other is your king, how can you assassinate casually? The crime was extremely heinous, and he dared to treat Wusun, a pro-Hungarian king, as a nobleman of the Han Dynasty. Liu Xiangfu was not convinced, continued to go up, and reported the truth to the Han Dynasty. Huo Guang was furious, recalled Zhang Weng, and immediately beheaded him, angry. But on the other hand, the stalemate continued, and a king had no way to take his concubine, so he surrounded the city and suffered, and the princess in the city calmly resisted the enemy. Prestige plummeted. So his brother Wu took the opportunity to rebel and beheaded the mud. However, this Wu Zhitu continued to carry the pro-Hungarian banner. Liu Xiangfu sent his maid Feng Liao as a lobbyist, aren't you pro-Huns, see if the powerful Xiongnu are the opponents of the Han Dynasty, the Huns can't beat the Han Dynasty, Wusun and the Han Dynasty are enemies, is it an egg touching a stone? Wu Zhitu lowered his head high, took the initiative to retreat to the little king, and supported the princess's son Yuan Guimi as the king.

This is what the Tang Dynasty needs, including Princess Honghua, not Princess Wencheng, or some princess later.

But conditions are also needed, the princess herself must be very wise, pro-Tang, and even take the initiative to sacrifice her own interests for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, just like Liu Xiangfu. The court should be able to make decisions for them, don't think that it is a little princess, it doesn't matter if you are wronged, anyway, there are countless women in the clan. Princesses can dare to do it.

Li Wei didn't say anything about the relationship.

I also thought about not only establishing two Turkic khans, but also making peace, and even using power to support the princess's son to re-ascend to the position of the khan, and then make peace and dilution from generation to generation. Eighty percent and ninety percent of the blood flowing in their veins is the blood of the Han people, combing from top to bottom, so that these tribes can maintain a long-term pro-Tang relationship. This is no less than 100,000 soldiers.

But he is still very repulsive to Heqin.

The establishment of the Khan is the existing policy of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Fangyi didn't think much about it, just thinking about two candidates, in addition to the emperor's "overstepping authority" this time, the emperor ascended the throne, only the ministers below the third grade conferred powers, this is the appointment of two khans, it is already overstepping the power, what symbolic meaning will it have?

Li Wei said: "I'll write it." ”

I wrote a note to explain the reasons.

Only then did I ask about some of the big food in the river, which refers to the countries between the Wuhu River and the Yaozhishui, located in the area of Uzbekistan and Tajikistan in the later generations. Tocharian refers to the Tocharian states in a broad sense, mainly in Afghanistan and northern Pakistan. To the east are fragmented small states, and to the south is the Tianzhu Sindh region in a broad sense. There is also the Sestan (Tang Dynasty Tomb City) region, which covers southwestern Afghanistan, northwestern Pakistan, eastern Iran, and then the Khorasan region, including most of Iran and eastern Iraq, both of which were the core of the original Persia.

Wang Fangyi didn't pay much attention to the matter of the big food.

This is also caused by the policy of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty once also wanted to take the Hezhong region, although more than ten years ago only sent an envoy to set up the Governor's Mansion and various prefectures and counties, but more than ten years ago Li Zhi is definitely not the Li Zhi who now knows that the border is in chaos and the disaster in Guanzhong, and he continues to seal Zen. It's just that the Tang Dynasty needs to take a breath and does not immediately send troops. Then there was a rebellion in Tibet, the defeat of Dafeichuan, the country's good years, and heard that there were more than 400,000 soldiers in Dashixiong, and gradually gave up this idea, and only operated the Western Regions, and the river was used as a buffer zone between the two countries.

The countries in the river knew that they only sent envoys to make friends with the Tang Dynasty, except for the Persians who were sick and rushed to the doctor, and repeatedly asked the Tang Dynasty for support, the countries in the river never sent envoys to ask the Tang Dynasty for help. Even a few years ago, he asked for the help of Ashina Duzhi (it may be Li Shalu, but he was in the right wing, it is unlikely) to help, but let the big cannibal defeat. From then on, I had to protect myself.

After the Persian prince arrived in Tocharo, the Great Food had not been operating in the Sestan and Khorasan regions for a long time, and the rebels from all over the country had gathered, and the Nirvana division still had something to do. However, as soon as Wang Fangyi's Tang army withdrew, his legs were weak, and he stayed in Tocharo, not daring to go south again.

He didn't pay attention to the big food, but the kings of the river still heard a lot of news.

A few years ago, the Great Cannibal launched several attacks from Khorasan to Anguo (Anguo is on the west side of the river, which is geographically easy to attack), won several times, and again moved to Kangguo (the east of the river, close to the town of Broken Leaves), which has marked the collapse of the Tang Dynasty's Lingxi feudal regime. It was not until the First Battle of Qinghai, however, that the Tang Dynasty won several victories in the Western Regions, including against the Tibetans and Turks, that the situation gradually changed.

It was not the Turks who joined forces with the Great Cannibals. In the past few years, the Tubo people and Da Shi tacitly divided the sphere of influence of the Tang Dynasty, with Da Shi mainly attacking Persia and Lingxi, and Tubo mainly attacking the Western Regions and Qinghai. In order to deal with the Tang Dynasty, the Turkic Ashina Duzhi and Li Shaluo allied with the Tibetans. This is the worst news for the Hanaka region. In those years, the Hezhong region also sent many envoys, including the one brought by Hu Ying. There was a process of changing the situation, and later in history, the Turks, Tibet, and Tocharo joined forces to fight against the Great Eclipse. Then the Tang Dynasty joined forces with Da Shi to deal with Sulu. But the number of direct confrontations between these three powers is very small, and there is almost no war between Tibet and Dashi *** on a large scale. These small countries have become pawns in these three swinging confrontations.

In a word. The changes in the situation in recent years have been very beneficial to the Hezhong region, and the rough fetters of the Tang Dynasty have been very welcome in the Hezhong region. However, the Tang Dynasty has never been interested, one concubine is intentional, and the other Lang is ruthless, so the countries in the Hanzhong region can only be disappointed again and again. This time, the Tang Dynasty quelled the rebellion, and the sphere of influence extended to Yaozhishui, which is one step away from the Hezhong region, so it should always be managed.

And so a series of things happened.

The year before last, Anguo, who was a vassal to the Great Food, took tough measures against the Great Food, and in order to retaliate, the Great Food made the Anguo hostages slaves, and these children who were taken hostages rushed into the Khorasan Governor's Mansion to resist, and wanted to kill the Governor of the Great Food, but failed, and became righteous. Tocharian also adopted a tough policy towards the Great Eclipse and did not continue to pay tribute.

After Wang Fangyi finished speaking, he asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty wants to ......?" ”

"Be improvised," Li Wei said lightly.

These things alone cannot prove the attitude of the countries in the Hanzhong region, and without the support of the countries in the Hanzhong region, Li Wei would not have attacked Khorasan or eaten a large number of foods. It can't be said that at this time, my father was enshrined in Zen, and bad things happened one after another, and many people were dissatisfied. Even *** can't be requisitioned, and the big food that goes out of his army will make some people find an excuse to lead the disaster to themselves.

Wang Fangyi immediately guessed Li Wei's thoughts, and didn't ask again.

Li Wei said again: "Wang Duhu, not only this time, but if it is ordered by the imperial court in the future...... I'm not in the capital, so you'd better find a reason not to enter the capital. ”

I remember some events in history, my mother killed many important generals, including Heiya Changzhi, Cheng Wuting and this Wang Fangyi. History is certainly not this history, maybe Lingxi continues to develop on the historical track, but it is certainly not the case in China.

But just in case.

The country's famous generals withered, Cheng Wuting was probably very difficult to use, even if he used it, he was also wary, and his mother seemed to live a long life, but Heiya and Wang, Li Wei didn't want to have an accident. Especially Wang Fangyi, he is the younger brother of Queen Wang, and he is already implementing Pei Xingjian's plan, if he enters Beijing casually, the future is very worrying.

But to find a reason, it is too easy in the Western Turks.

Wang Fangyi immediately replied vigilantly: "Oh." ”

After writing the sparse fold, he immediately sent someone back to Luoyang. Then an order was issued to punish the pharyngeal face, and in order to proceed smoothly, even the punishment of the nose of the car was abandoned, but it was also an unprecedented change.

With the order issued, Li Wei and Wang Fangyi led their troops to Yibohai. Along the way to the west, Wang Fangyi had already sent many scouts to supervise the movements of various departments, especially the Wulu Department and the Chebi Department. This was within his reach, and on the other hand, he could not have predicted the reaction of the imperial court to Li Wei's canonization of the new Khan, as well as forcibly keeping him behind.

At the end of July, the song was delivered to the imperial court......
