Chapter 469: Instigation
Zhao Ziliang's official letter to the imperial court did not mention that it was recommended to canonize Jiechuan Yishi Khan as the king of Mobei, this is just a pretense, there is no need to make it true, and there is only a need to have this pretense, and there is no fear that Guli Peiluo and Wuli will not be fooled.

After sending to invite Guli Peiluo and Wuli people to go for half a month, they brought the news, and in a few days Guli Peiluo and Wuli will arrive, Zhao Ziliang is hiding from Cheng Yuanzhen, the prison army, in this matter, so he set up the place to receive Guli Peiluo and Wuli outside the city.
On August 23, Guli Peiluo and Wuli came like the moon, both of them brought hundreds of guards, Zhao Ziliang knew that they still had a deep wariness of him, so he was more careful, lest the two of them see the clues.
"Guli Pei Luo (Wu Li) has seen Master Hou!" The two saluted after seeing Zhao Ziliang.
Zhao Ziliang laughed: "Haha, two leaders, this is the second time you have come to Zhenbei City, right?" You're welcome! Today, General Ben happens to be out hunting, let's talk here, please come in and talk! ”
The two did not become suspicious, and followed Zhao Ziliang into the big tent together, and after the wine and meat were delivered, Zhao Ziliang beckoned them to enjoy.
"Two leaders, do you know why General Ben invited you over this time?"
The two shook their heads, "I don't know, please ask Master Hou to speak clearly!" ”
"Okay, you two are quick to talk, I like it!" Zhao Ziliang praised it, and then sighed: "Don't hide it from the two leaders, General Ben now regrets canonizing Jie Chuan Yishi Khan to the emperor as the king of Mobei, General Ben has always thought that he is a very good person, but he didn't expect that after the general's performance was sent to Chang'an, he began to become lukewarm to General Ben, he just promised to give General Ben five beauties, two carts of gold and silver, and 5,000 heads of cattle and sheep every year after he became the king of Mobei, but recently General Ben sent someone to urge him to send things over, This person flatly denied that he had promised to do this, which is really unreasonable, and I am angry to death! Tell me, do such people still have credibility? Is it still worth making friends? If he was really made the king of Mobei, wouldn't he be lawless? Will he still take General Ben in his eyes? Will you still take our Datang in your eyes? ”
After listening to Zhao Ziliang's words, Guli Peiluo and Wuli glanced at each other, and asked in unison, "What does Hou Ye mean?" ”
After Zhao Ziliang poured a bowl of wine, he stared at the two of them: "Kill him, Ba Ximi's territory, population, livestock and wealth will be divided between the two of you, and from now on, Mobei will be divided into two, the east will belong to your Guli Peiluo, and the west will belong to your Wuli!" ”
The two glanced at each other, their eyes flickered, but their hearts were alive, but at this time, it was not trivial, and the two couldn't make up their minds for a while, so there was hesitation on their faces and eyes.
Zhao Ziliang was not in a hurry, he ate a mouthful of mutton and drank a sip of wine, and looked at the two of them from time to time.
The two hesitated for a while but still didn't decide whether to do it or not, Guli Pei Luo spoke first: "What Hou Ye said is very attractive, but this matter is very important, and the two of us are not good at making decisions for a while, I wonder if Hou Ye can allow us some time to think about it?" ”
Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "Of course, this general will hunt here for three days, and the two leaders have three days to think about it, and after three days, whether they agree or not, the two can leave at any time!" However, General Ben wants to remind the two of you, even if you don't do this matter, do you think he will let you go? He wants to really sit firmly in the position of the king of Mobei in this prairie, the two of you tribes are his biggest obstacle, get rid of you this matter, this general asserts that he will do it sooner or later, we Han people have a saying called 'strike first is strong, then attack suffer', two think about it! ”
Guli Peiluo and Wuli left Zhao Ziliang's big tent and returned to their own camp, and after seeing them off, they returned to the big tent and asked, "Master Hou, will they agree?" ”
Zhao Ziliang touched his chin and said: "Wuli this person has some wisdom and is a little timid, but he is definitely not stupid, and he can forbear, and he does not lack courage at critical moments, and Guli Peiluo is definitely not a person who is willing to be subservient to others, after the fall of the Turks, its territory and many populations and livestock have been obtained by Ba Xi Mi, and the strength of Ba Xi Mi has increased greatly, as long as they are given enough time to digest, it is almost impossible for Hui and Eastern Qarlu to defeat him, and once Ba Xi Mi digests the encroached post-Turkic forces, It is inevitable that they will make a move on the Hui and Eastern Qarluq, Guli Peiluo and Wuli are both smart people, they will not fail to see this, as for whether they make this decision to do something against Ba Ximi, let's wait and see, General Ben does not dare to conclude! ”
After Guli Peiluo returned to his big tent, he began to weigh Zhao Ziliang's proposal, Zhao Ziliang's proposal was very attractive, he was not a person who was willing to condescend to others, if he had the opportunity to develop and strengthen the unified grassland, he could definitely pay any price.
He was born in the Hui medicine Luo Ge family, so that the family has been the hereditary leader of the Hui tribe since Tumidu, and also succeeded the governor of Hanhai. Guli Peiluo's grandfather Fu Di Lu and his father Chengzong both served as the head of the headquarters, and also served as the governor of Hanhai. After his father Chengzong was exiled by the Tang Dynasty, he inherited the position of the head of the Hui Hui, and it was under his leadership that the Hui began to grow and develop in the grassland surrounded by strong enemies, which shows that his talent is extraordinary.
After thinking about it for a long time, Guli Peiluo still decided to do something to Ba Ximi, not only because he could get huge benefits after eliminating Ba Ximi, which could be recognized by the Tang Dynasty, but also because if he didn't do it to Ba Ximi, Ba Ximi would also do it to him sooner or later, there has always been only one overlord on the grassland, but to do this, it is not enough to rely on him alone, and it must also be said that the Wuli of the eastern Qarluq must be mobilized, so he sent someone to invite Wuli to discuss.
"Leader Wuli, what do you think of Marquis Zhao's proposal?" Guli Peiluo asked, holding up his wine glass.
Wu Li drank a bowl of wine and said, "Marquis Zhao's conditions are good, but I always feel that Marquis Zhao seems to be deliberately provoking a fight between us and Ba Ximi!" ”
Guli Peiluo smiled: "I didn't expect you to see it, yes, Marquis Zhao is indeed provoking a fight between us and Ba Ximi, but even if we know, what?" Even if he doesn't instigate, can we really live in peace with Basimi? Last year, he named me the right to kill, and you to the left, just to stabilize us, now the Turkic remnants have been destroyed, he occupies the Turkic territory, population and livestock, and his strength has increased greatly, and when he digests these, he will definitely attack us after the strength is stable, you and I both know that there can be no few masters on the steppe, either surrender or die, if we surrender to Basimi, do you think he will rest assured of us, let us grow? ”
Wuli sighed, "You mean that even if we don't do it to him, he will do it to us?" There is no possibility of peace at all? ”
Guli Peiluo shook his head and said, "Leader of Wuli, you are a smart person, why do you ask me this question?" We all understand what Marquis Zhao means, but what can we do, knowing that he has bad intentions, we still have to do what he wants! ”
The muscles on Wu Li's face twitched constantly, and he slapped the table and said: "In this case, it is better to do it sooner or later than to do it sooner, Ba Ximi wants us to die, then we will let him die first, but we will kill you and me with Ba Ximi in front, we can't let Tang Jun watch the excitement from the side, right?" In my meaning, Tang Jun must be dragged in this matter, otherwise he will put all the blame on us at that time, and we will not be dumb and eat coptis? ”
Guli Peiluo nodded and said: "Yes, you are thoughtful, I didn't think of this at first, since this is the case, then we will reply to him tomorrow!" ”
"Good!"
The next morning, Zhao Ziliang was about to go out hunting, and the two of them came together, Zhao Ziliang had to give up the plan to hunt, and said with a smile: "Two leaders, you must have already made a decision?" ”
"Yes, Master Hou! But that's not the right thing to say here, right? ”
"Of course, please come with me to the big tent to talk!"
The three of them returned to the big tent, and Zhao Ziliang ordered that no one should approach within thirty steps around the big tent, otherwise they would be killed.
"Okay, two leaders, now there are only three of us within these thirty steps, if you have anything to say, tell me your decision!"
The two glanced at each other, and Guli Peiluo said to Zhao Ziliang: "Hou Ye, we decided to agree to Hou Ye's proposal, but Ba Ximi's strength has greatly increased after gaining the Turkic population and livestock, and it is a little difficult to deal with him with the strength of our two clans, even if we can win, I am afraid that we will not be able to eliminate it, if we let him run, I am afraid that it will be more troublesome, so we want to ask Hou Ye to send troops together!" ”
Zhao Ziliang looked at the two of them, thought for a while and agreed: "Okay, since this matter was proposed by General Ben, General Ben will naturally not stay out of the matter, so let's do it, General Ben will lead the Tang Army to contain Ba Ximi in the front, and the two of you will lead the troops to raid his rear, and we will annihilate him in one fell swoop, how about it?" ”
Guli Peiluo said with great joy: "That's right, the Tang army has a powerful infantry formation, and there are long-range attack methods such as infantry crossbows, it is best to contain Ba Ximi in the front, and I and the leader of Wuli will lead the cavalry of the headquarters to raid his rear from the northwest and due north, this move will definitely eradicate Ba Ximi!" ”
After the three of them discussed the strategy, they immediately dispersed, and Zhao Ziliang immediately returned to Zhenbei City with Hu Cong, and instructed Bolehan: "Eight hundred miles to urgently send someone to Shan Yu Duhu Mansion to ask Absi, Grado, Bodezhi, Yu Sailu, Princess Da Luo, Princess Yu Candle, and Lu Po to come over!" ”
Absi is the post-Turkic Western Yehu, Gelado is the post-Turkic Western Kill, Bodezhi is the grandson of Mosi, Yu Sailu is the wife of the Later Turkic Yiran Khan, Princess Da Luo is the daughter of the Viga Khan, Princess Yu Zhu is the daughter of the Dengli Khan, and Lu Po Kedun is the wife of the Viga Khan, these people led their troops to surrender to Zhao Ziliang after the fall of the Later Turks, although there are still some people in the hands of these people, but they are no longer in shape, Zhao Ziliang does not need to kill them, it means that the Tang Dynasty accepted them, And they were temporarily placed to live and graze near the eastern surrendered city.
